Next, the group set off straight for the Jinyuan International Estate.

This was a luxurious Su-Style Garden, with Taihu stones and Huangshan pines, each worth as much as a house.

These exotic pines and stones were merely decorations within the Jinyuan International Estate.

As they arrived, they saw a woman in a Chanel suit and a pencil skirt stepping out of a Mercedes.

It was none other than Director Lin of Jinyuan International.

She was a strong woman.

"Aunt Lin, what a coincidence to see you here," Lin Xiao greeted.

Lin Yan was momentarily surprised, recognizing Lin Xiao as her bestie's son. "Lin Xiao, it's you. What brings you here?"

"Aunt Lin, you must have forgotten. I made a reservation for today," Lin Xiao replied with a polite smile.

"Alright, since you're here, everything is 20% off..."

Just as Lin Yan finished speaking, her gaze swept across the crowd and landed on Ye Beichen standing next to Zhou Ruoyu. Her body couldn't help but tremble.

'Oh my God, why is he here?'

"Aunt Lin, what's wrong?" Lin Xiao noticed Lin Yan's unease.

Lin Yan's beautiful eyes contracted slightly, and she quickly shook her head. "No... nothing."

She stole another glance at Ye Beichen and immediately said, "Alright, today you can enjoy yourselves here, and all expenses are on the house."

Everyone was surprised.

"What?"

Even Lin Xiao was taken aback. Getting a 20% discount was already a big deal for him.

Lin Yan actually waived the entire bill?

Su Youning found it odd and couldn't help but glance back in the direction Lin Yan had looked.

Ye Beichen stood there, very calm.

'Could it be because of him?' Su Youning wondered to herself.

The other handsome men and beautiful women present couldn't help but look back as well. Seeing Ye Beichen, they were all a bit surprised.

"Come on, everyone, don't just stand there. Let's go inside," Lin Yan invited everyone into the Jinyuan International Estate.

Just as they were about to enter, a group of black-clad bodyguards suddenly appeared, blocking the entrance and preventing them from going in.

Even though Lin Yan was the owner of Jinyuan International Estate, she was stopped as well.

"What are you doing?"

"Can't you see Director Lin is here?"

"Why are you stopping us?"

The young people were a bit disgruntled.

Lin Yan, however, shook her head, signaling everyone to remain silent.

The crowd was puzzled.

At this moment, an old man and a girl appeared at the entrance of Jinyuan International Estate.

The old man was sitting in a wheelchair, looking quite spirited, though his legs were covered with a tiger skin.

The girl, wearing a cheongsam with a graceful figure, was pushing the old man's wheelchair, heading towards the entrance.

"Miss Han Yue!"

Lin Xiao was startled.

"Han Yue, who is that?" Zhou Ruoyu's classmates were curious.

"The eldest granddaughter of the Han Family, a prestigious family in Zhonghai," Lin Xiao explained.

"That Han Family?"

Su Youning and the others couldn't help but gasp.

The Han Family was the number one prestigious family in Zhonghai, and Han Yue was the apple of their eye. Why was she here?

Wait a minute!

If Han Yue was in Jiangnan, then the old man in the wheelchair must be...

"Master Han, Han Jinlong!" someone whispered.

Everyone's pupils involuntarily contracted, immediately guessing the identity of the old man in the wheelchair.

"Don't speak carelessly."

Lin Yan quickly scolded, lowering her voice. "Be careful not to bring trouble upon yourself. While you're here, don't say what shouldn't be said, and don't look where you shouldn't."

The handsome men and beautiful women quickly lowered their heads.

The Han Family of Zhonghai was a colossal entity, truly the number one family in Zhonghai.

"Is this Han Family really that powerful?" Ye Beichen asked curiously.

"Very powerful! The Han Family can compete with the four major families of Jinling," Zhou Ruoyu whispered in response.

"Oh, I see."

Ye Beichen nodded slightly.

"Grandpa, you've been much more spirited this past month. If you come here for a few more treatments, your illness will surely get better," Han Yue's bell-like laughter rang out.

"Let's hope so," Han Jinlong smiled.

Suddenly, a voice rang out:

"If you continue like this, not only will you not get better, but you'll also be in life-threatening danger."

The entire place fell silent!

Swish!

In an instant, everyone's eyes turned towards Ye Beichen.

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Su Youning was stunned.

No matter how significant Ye Beichen's background might be, could he afford to offend the Han Family of Zhonghai?

Let alone Master Han Jinlong himself.

Several classmates were also shocked, not expecting Ye Beichen to suddenly speak up.

'Kid, are you looking for death? You dare curse Master Han Jinlong?' Lin Xiao almost laughed out loud, thinking about how to regain face and teach Ye Beichen a lesson.

Now it seemed unnecessary.

Ye Beichen dared to curse Master Han Jinlong; he wouldn't even know how he died.

Even Jesus couldn't save him!

Moreover, this nouveau riche's family would also suffer.

Lin Yan was startled, but then she thought about how Ye Beichen wasn't afraid of even the King of Jiangnan, so she was relieved.

Han Jinlong looked over, and the atmosphere became tense, with everyone feeling immense pressure.

Even Zhou Ruoyu nervously grabbed Ye Beichen's hand.

"Young man, what did you say?" Han Jinlong's presence was intimidating without anger.

"Do you know who you're talking to? Apologize to my grandfather immediately," Han Yue's pretty face turned cold, crossing her arms, her demeanor icy.

Ye Beichen remained composed and spoke calmly:

"Your legs were broken before."

"Now, the tendons are damaged, and every night at three, they hurt intensely for fifteen minutes."

"Every winter, the pain is unbearable, but judging by your symptoms, you haven't used any medication."

"I guess... hmm, maybe you haven't told anyone and have been enduring it all these years."

"However, it's June now, and your legs are covered with tiger skin, preventing the heat from dissipating. In one or two months, your legs will completely lose sensation."

Ye Beichen finished in one breath.

A hint of surprise flashed in Han Jinlong's eyes.

What Ye Beichen said was entirely accurate.

But he remained expressionless.

"Nonsense! Kneel and apologize to my grandfather!" Han Yue shouted.

An aura swept over them.

Lin Xiao, Su Youning, and the others were so frightened that they took several steps back.

Zhou Ruoyu hid behind Ye Beichen.

The aura of the first young lady of the Han Family of Zhonghai was intimidating.

"Wait, let him continue," Han Jinlong shook his head, stopping Han Yue.

"Grandpa?"

Han Yue was stunned.

Ye Beichen continued to ask, "Have you recently consumed ginseng?"

"Heh, knowing we're from the Han Family and that ginseng is an important tonic, you guessed my grandfather ate ginseng? Are you just a blind cat trying to catch a dead mouse?" Han Yue sneered.

Ye Beichen shook his head. "From now on, stop eating ginseng."

"Otherwise, your legs will be completely crippled."

"If you have an attack, inserting a silver needle one inch and three-tenths into the Yongquan Acupoint, two inches into the Kunlun Acupoint, and half an inch into the Feiyang Acupoint can temporarily relieve the pain."

"Heh, young man, I have the best doctors. If it were that simple, it would be great," Han Jinlong chuckled and shook his head.

Han Yue said coldly, "Grandpa, this guy is just talking nonsense."

"Kneel, bow, and admit your mistake."

"Forget it, he's just a young man. Who hasn't been young?" Han Jinlong shook his head, gave Ye Beichen a deep look, and then had Han Yue push him into a van, quickly leaving.

Once Han Jinlong and Han Yue left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Kid named Ye, do you know you almost got us killed?" Lin Xiao was furious, pointing at Ye Beichen's nose and questioning him.

"Slap!"

Ye Beichen slapped him to the ground. "Don't point your finger at me. This is the first time, and since you're Ruoyu's classmate, I'll let it go."

"You..."

Lin Xiao was furious, covering his face and glaring at Ye Beichen.

"Ding—!"

At that moment, Ye Beichen's phone chimed with a message.

He opened his phone and his expression changed.

A line of text read: [Within three hours, come to Long Lake Manor of Jinling, or Wang Ruyan will die!]
