Chapter 140 – Catch that rat Lin Fan
He heard from his daughter that Tang Yu had a way to cure his illness.
He assumed Tang Yu either knew some renowned doctor or had persuaded that stubborn old man from the Jiang Family.
"It's me."
Tang Yu smiled and pointed to his own face, saying, "I learned a few remedies from a master, just enough to treat Uncle Yang's illness."
Yang Guofeng was momentarily stunned.
But given his current condition, he had no other choice but to grasp at straws.
"Then I'll trouble you, dear nephew Tang."
He said with a bitter smile.
"Except for the nurse, everyone else should leave."
After ushering everyone out of the room, Tang Yu took a small bottle out of his pocket.
This was an ointment he had concocted at home over the past two days.
Calling it an ointment was a bit of a stretch.
It was more like a poison.
However, to tackle the deep-seated venom in Yang Guofeng's bones, fighting poison with poison was the best option.
He handed the ointment to the nurse and said, "Please apply this ointment to Uncle Yang's affected area."
The nurse quickly took the ointment and prepared to apply it.
"Uncle Yang, this ointment might hurt a bit when applied, but just bear with it for an hour."
"I'll go out and have someone prepare a detoxifying potion for you. Once you drink it, your illness will be resolved."
After speaking with Yang Guofeng, Tang Yu leaned in and whispered a few words in his ear.
Yang Guofeng's expression changed instantly, and he nodded with a grim face.
After finalizing the matter with him, Tang Yu quickly left the room.
He had no interest in staying to watch the show.
He had his own, so why bother with others'?
As he walked out of the room, the Yang family members were waiting outside.
Seeing Tang Yu come out, Yang Zishi hurriedly approached and asked.
"Young Master Tang, you're out so soon. How's my father's condition?"
"I've already had someone apply the ointment. He'll drink a detoxifying potion later, and everything will be fine. Here's the prescription. Please have someone prepare the potion, Young Master Yang."
Tang Yu handed a prepared prescription to Yang Zishi.
"Alright, thank you, Young Master Tang. The Yang family will forever remember this kindness."
Yang Zishi bowed in gratitude to Tang Yu.
But inside, he was already smiling with glee.
As expected, everything was just as Lin Fan had said.
Next, he only needed to tamper with the potion, adding the medicine Lin Fan gave him.
Coming to his senses, he quickly knelt on the ground and shouted, "Dad, let me explain..."
"What's there to explain?"
Before he could finish, an enraged Yang Guofeng grabbed a vase and smashed it onto Yang Zishi's face.
He never expected the traitor to be his own son.
This bastard colluded with outsiders to harm his own father?
After being hit by the vase, Yang Zishi blacked out and fainted on the spot.
"Take him away and lock him up. I'll deal with this beast once I'm better."
Yang Guofeng, furious to the point of his blood pressure rising, ordered the bodyguards to drag Yang Zishi away.
He looked at Tang Yu and asked, "Dear nephew Tang, you were right. This kid really colluded with Lin Fan?"
"Yes, I have a grudge against Lin Fan and have been investigating him..."
Tang Yu briefly explained.
Yang Guofeng had no reason to doubt Tang Yu's words.
He gritted his teeth and said, "So that bastard Lin Fan is hiding in my house now?"
"Yes, his target is you, Uncle Yang. Next, it's me. We can start closing the net."
Tang Yu nodded.
"What a misfortune for the family."
Yang Guofeng, feeling dizzy with anger, looked at Yang Zhilan and said.
"Zhilan, have the family cooperate with dear nephew Tang's actions. We must not let this rat Lin Fan escape this time."
Yang Zhilan nodded and left the room with Tang Yu and the bodyguards.
At this moment, Lin Fan was squatting in the restroom, dressed in a servant's uniform.
He had received a message from Yang Zishi ten minutes ago.
The plan was proceeding smoothly, it said.
The poison he gave Yang Zishi was potent.
Once ingested, Yang Guofeng would be dead in no more than fifteen minutes!
He was counting the time.
Once the time was up, he could go up and work with the Yang family to take down that Tang kid.
With so many from the Yang family cooperating, even if that Tang kid was a bit stronger than him, he would still be doomed!
After waiting patiently for another five minutes, Lin Fan began to sense something was off.
Yang Zishi hadn't sent any updates.
Moreover, the footsteps outside the restroom were growing more frequent.
From his experience, it seemed more like a search was underway.
A sense of danger crept over him.
Lin Fan decided not to hesitate any longer and chose to take the initiative to check the situation.
After all, he was disguised as a servant now, so his identity wouldn't be easily exposed.
