Chapter 245: Chapter 245: You Can Kneel and Kowtow Now

The Yang Family’s estate.

At this moment, it was utterly solemn.

Seeing Liu Ruitian sitting in the living room.

Today, he had brought Liu Ruiyun and Liu Mo along for the visit.

Mr. Yang took a deep breath and finally braced himself to walk in.

After all, it was something he couldn’t avoid.

He had to face it.

"Mr. Yang, it’s been a while since we last met, you still seem quite robust!"

Seeing the Family Head come out, Liu Ruitian stood up with a smile.

The two, who had met once a few years ago, were not exactly familiar with one another.

But now his address was particularly enthusiastic.

"Thanks to your good fortune, not bad at all."

Mr. Yang, accompanied by his two sons, came out together.

After exchanging a clasping fist salutation, the guests and the host took their seats accordingly.

From their demeanor, Liu Ruiyun and Liu Mo were clearly smiling subtly.

While Yang Tianqi and Yang Tianfang had unpleasant expressions on their faces.

Because everyone knew that Liu Ruitian had been doing quite well in Beijing these years.

Beijing was a place swarming with dragons and snakes.

To speak frankly.

The people you’d randomly hit with a thrown brick in Beijing.

would likely be characters who couldn’t be trifled with in Jiangning.

Add to that, the Liu family had also been sailing with the wind these past few years.

Naturally, this included Liu Ruitian’s networking in Beijing.

So seeing him return, the two brothers felt somewhat intimidated.

"Mr. Yang, I’m not one for beating around the bush and I tend to speak quite directly, so please don’t take it the wrong way,"

Liu Ruitian said, looking at the expressions of the Yang father and sons.

He showed a satisfied smile and said, "I’m here today because I’m indeed asking for a favor."

"Mr. Liu, your words are far too modest."

Mr. Yang certainly knew that the visitor had ill intentions.

But pleasantries still had to be exchanged, "You’re a high official in Beijing, and we’re just ordinary folk. If there’s any order you’d like to give, please just let us know. Whatever the Yang Family can do to help, we certainly won’t shirk the responsibility."

"What’s this about a high or low official, we’re all friends here. Let’s not do the whole formalities routine,"

Liu Ruitian said lightly with a smile, "I heard from my brother that he wanted to seek an alliance with the Yang Family through marriage, but unfortunately your Linglong has found herself a dragon son-in-law. Not only did that mess up the marriage alliance, it also froze the Liu family’s accounts. So today, I’m here hoping that the Yang Family’s esteemed son-in-law will take pity and spare my Liu family."

Upon hearing this, the father and sons of the Yang Family were all taken aback.

Clearly, the tone and attitude of this statement were not at all supplicatory.

It sounded more like a veiled threat.

"Mr. Liu, there must be some misunderstanding here..."

Mr. Yang hastily tried to explain.

But he was interrupted by a wave of Liu Ruitian’s hand.

"Mr. Yang, some things don’t need further explanation. I’ve heard too much about such ’misunderstandings’."

Liu Ruitian stated with a cold laugh, "This matter has had quite a profound impact on my Liu family. For this, I have even scolded my brother. The Yang Family is not someone we can aspire to connect with through marriage. So, I told Liu Mo to stop daydreaming. They now know their mistake and have pledged to reform."

Sugar-coated words with a harsh intent left everyone at a loss for words.

Mr. Yang was momentarily at a loss for words.

So is this how people like to talk after coming back from Beijing?

"Uncle, don’t worry, I’ve completely given up on Yang Linglong,"

Liu Mo chimed in eagerly on the side.

"That’s more like it. And also, Mr. Yang, rest assured, I didn’t come back for such trivial matters."

Liu Ruitian nodded in satisfaction.

Then he turned his head to look at Mr. Yang.

"Tonight, an old leader who has returned from Beijing is celebrating his birthday. Although I don’t interact with him much, he thinks highly of me and invited me to return for the celebration, so I hurried back. I doubt you know who he is, but his grandson is the chairman of the Jiangning Banking Regulatory Commission. I was thinking of having a chat with him at the birthday banquet, but then I thought there’s no need to trouble the old leader over such a trifling matter, so why not have your esteemed son-in-law come out for a good talk and avoid unnecessary chit-chat from me—it wouldn’t be good if I let something slip and affected the brothers helping him."

Indeed, there is logic in sandwiching harsh words with soft.

The three men listening felt a chill.

The chairman of the Silver Supervision Committee wields real power.

Compared to the trivial matter of freezing an account.

Even a section chief below him could manage it.

"Mr. Liu, some matters are just for laughs, last time the joke might have gone too far, I’ll call him right now and ask him to find a way to handle the account freezing issue. After all, as you said, we’re all one of us."

Mr. Yang opened his mouth in haste.

He didn’t want Lin Fan to attract bigger troubles because he had helped vent his anger.

"Please no, Mr. Yang, our Liu family cannot presume to be ’one of us’ with you, after all, my nephew hasn’t formed a hundred-year bond with Miss Yang of your family, we are still two separate families. As the saying goes, even brothers should settle accounts clearly, we will do what’s necessary in terms of an apology, after all, when a mistake is made, it must be acknowledged!"

Liu Ruiyun’s words had a hidden meaning.

Which sent a chill down the spines of the three Yang men.

His meaning was clear.

He would not easily let the matter rest.

The so-called visit to apologize was all for show.

In the end, it was just a notification.

The Liu family was about to retaliate.

"Since an apology is due, then give me a kowtow!"

Just as Mr. Yang didn’t know how to respond.

Lin Fan’s voice floated in from outside the courtyard.

Following which, he walked in with his arm around Yang Linglong’s slender waist.

"Who is this?"

Hearing this, Liu Ruitian narrowed his eyes.

"He is the Yang family’s esteemed son-in-law, Lin Fan!"

Mr. Yang somehow found the courage to say it.

With those words, not only did he introduce Lin Fan’s identity.

But he also bound the Yang family and Lin Fan together.

As such.

If Lin Fan got into trouble, the Yang family would also be implicated.

"So, this is the esteemed son-in-law who has shamed my nephew, truly a man of striking appearance!"

Liu Ruitian stared at Lin Fan with sarcasm.

"That’s right, how else could he be worthy of Linglong, a beauty of peerless grace? Not every toad can dine on swan meat."

Lin Fan walked up to Liu Ruitian with a smile.

His eyes radiated arrogant pride.

"You just mentioned that Liu Mo should apologize to me? How about this, if he kowtows to me, I’ll freeze your Liu family’s assets for one day less, and if he gives me a hundred kowtows, I’ll unfreeze the Liu family’s assets right now."

"The Yang family’s esteemed son-in-law is outrageously arrogant. In all my years in Beijing, I’ve never seen anyone more arrogant than you."

Such words were a blatant provocation.

Liu Ruitian stared at Lin Fan with a cold face.

"Then you can only blame your narrow circle of acquaintances for not recognizing someone of my caliber; after all, I don’t befriend just anyone."

Lin Fan pulled over a chair.

He sat down directly in the middle of the living room.

"Come on, give yourselves a chance, kowtows are only effective now, otherwise it’ll be too late!"
