"You're full. Not bad, not bad!" The scrawny old Taoist priest sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, picking his teeth as he spoke with a smile.
Lin Zhengtian glared at him fiercely.
At the dining table, this old thing ate like he was snatching food. He finished every dish in no time, as if he had been starving for days.
There was no appearance or etiquette at all. It was simply a vicious dog that was fighting for food!
"I'll never eat at the same table as this old thing again!" Lin Zhengtian said angrily.
The group sat down and began to enjoy tea after the meal.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang, and a servant went to open the door. Not long after, a tall figure strode in with some gifts in his hands.
It was Xu Dehu.
"Old Man Xu, why are you here?" Lin Zhengtian said in surprise. He immediately stood up and poured tea for Xu Dehu.
"Old Man Xu, you're late. We just ate!" The scrawny old Taoist priest smiled wickedly. "Are you hungry? We still have some leftovers. Do you want some? "
"Old bastard!" Xu Dehu immediately looked at the scrawny old Taoist priest. His eyes were burning with anger.
"Old Man Xu!" How could the scrawny old Taoist priest be willing to be taken advantage of? He didn't want to be outdone and immediately retorted.
The meeting between the two old men in the hospital two days ago could be said to be very unpleasant. At this moment, if not for Xiao Fan and the others, the two of them would probably have fought.
"Old Taoist priest, you better not offend me. Otherwise, I'll make sure you beg for death!" Xu Dehu said through gritted teeth.
"Old bastard, you better not provoke me too. Otherwise, I'll definitely stuff you into the toilet and let you have a taste of feces and urine!" The scrawny old Taoist priest also shouted.
"That's enough. Can you guys not fight the moment you meet?" Lin Zhengtian held his forehead and said helplessly.
"Hmph!" Xu Dehu snorted coldly. He looked at the scrawny old Taoist priest with disdain.
"Ptui!" The skinny and wretched old Taoist was much more direct. He opened his mouth and spat a mouthful of thick phlegm into the ashtray, then looked at Xu Dehu provocatively.
Xu Dehu was so angry that the veins on his forehead popped out!
"What are you doing here?" Lin Zhengtian glared at the skinny and wretched Daoist priest and asked Xu Dehu when he saw that the two of them were about to fight.
Lin Zhengtian understood both of their tempers. Xu Dehu was just a little hot-tempered. As long as one tried to persuade him with good intentions, he would usually listen. He was still reasonable. However, the wretched skinny old Daoist was a complete shameless person. It was useless to reason with him.
Therefore, he could only comfort Xu Dehu softly. As long as he stopped talking to the wretched skinny old Taoist, everything would be fine.
They were both his old friends. Lin Zhengtian didn't want to see them fight to the death!
"I'm here to pay a visit to Brother Xiao!" Xu Dehu said solemnly.
Xiao Fan smiled and shook his head, not saying anything.
Xiao Fan didn't have a bad impression of Xu Dehu, but he didn't have a good impression of him either.
Xiao Fan felt that Lin Zhengtian was the only one who could call him Brother Xiao. As for the others? No one had the right to call him that!
Xu Dehu placed the things on the table and said in a muffled voice, "This is a gift. Please accept it as a token of my respect!"
Xiao Fan continued to sip his tea calmly, not even looking at him.
Lin Zhengtian, on the other hand, felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.
He knew very well that Xu Dehu was actually a very proud person. He probably hadn't even said anything to please anyone in his life, let alone give them a gift. Otherwise, with his ability, he would have gone to Zhongnanhai to be the private doctor of the country's important political figures. He would have at least two bars and one star on his shoulders. Why would he still be hanging around in a small place like Jiangzhou City's First People's Hospital?
It was really not easy for him to come to this step and put down his pride to pay a visit to a young man.
"Brother Xiao!" Lin Zhengtian smiled bitterly as he looked at Xiao Fan.
Xiao Fan glanced at Lin Zhengtian and sighed helplessly. "Alright, Brother Lin, I'll give you face!"
"You can take the things back. I don't need them. If there's anything you want, just say it!" Xiao Fan looked at Xu Dehu and said calmly.
"I want to learn how to cure poison from you!" Xu Dehu said in a muffled voice.
"Why should I?" Xiao Fan raised his eyebrows and said, "Why should I teach you?"
"I, I, I …!"
Xu Dehu was stumped by Xiao Fan's question. He opened his mouth but didn't know how to answer. He could only sit there with a red face.
"Alright, you can leave!"
Xiao Fan shook his head and rejected him lightly.
Xu Dehu didn't say anything. He sat there and didn't leave. His face was full of struggle.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. How about we play chess?" Lin Zhengtian saw Xu Dehu's awkward expression and immediately changed the topic with a smile.
"Brother Xiao, I've known you for so long, but I haven't played a game with you. Why don't we play a game?" Lin Zhengtian smiled.
"Alright!" Xiao Fan smiled and stood up.
The group walked to the study. Xu Dehu sat there in a daze. Then, he saw Lin Zhengtian constantly giving him looks. After hesitating for a moment, he also followed.
.....
Southern suburbs of Jiangzhou City, Maple Woods Manor.
Liu Chengdong leaned on the sofa and played with two warm carnelian pecans in his hands. He narrowed his eyes as he listened to the conversation between Zhang Yusheng and his wife.
"Xiao Fan?" Liu Chengdong muttered.
"That's right, it's him!" Zhang Yusheng's expression was filled with ruthlessness. "The reason Qingyun died that day was because Qingyun had a conflict with him and went to find him. This led to the series of tragedies that followed. He is the real culprit behind the death of my son Qingyun! "
"This Xiao Fan repeatedly provoked my Qingyun when they were in university. Qingyun was forced to fight with him several times. The last time, he was even beaten to the point of hospitalization. This heartless little bastard must pay the price for my son's death. I will never let him go! "Huang Li gritted her teeth and said.
"Dad, this Xiao Fan is the same as Fatty Ma and the others. He must also go to jail. For Qingyun's life, other than Fatty Ma's life, this Xiao Fan must also die!" Liu Xinxin also said with a face full of hatred.
"Qingyun's death was not worth it!" Liu Chengdong was silent for a moment, then said, "I put in so much effort to push him to a high position in hopes of making some contributions. I didn't expect him to be so narrow-minded. In the end, it led to everything that happened today!"
"Dad!" Liu Xinxin seemed to feel that Liu Chengdong had the intention to refuse and immediately said anxiously.
"Let me finish!" Liu Chengdong patted his daughter's back and comforted her. "Don't worry!"
Then, his expression suddenly turned cold and he said, "But, no matter what, Qingyun is my son-in-law. I must investigate his death to the end, and all related personnel must be punished accordingly."
"I will contact someone as soon as possible to arrest this Xiao Fan and send him to court so that he can never step out of prison for the rest of his life!"
"Then, we'll have to trouble our in-laws!" Zhang Yusheng and Huang Li were overjoyed.
