Chapter 359: Wang Huashan

Chapter 359: Chapter 359: Wang Huashan

"Had I known this would happen, why did I ever start?" the old man always cautioned us to stay low-key, not to show off and cause trouble, nor smudge the Wang family’s name; but what did you and your daughter do?"

Wang Jingzhong held a reverent fear for his father, Wang Huashan, knowing that he could not hide this matter from his father’s Fiery Eyes. Therefore, he had no intention of concealing it.

That Fang Bai was a martial artist whose strength was not less than that of his father; martial artists are proud by nature. His son’s attack on Fang Bai would surely provoke Fang Bai’s retaliation, and how to deal with the consequences would require his father’s insight.

Regarding his son, Wang Dong, Wang Jingzhong felt both angry and helpless. He thought that once this matter was settled, he must discipline him properly; otherwise, the vast assets of the Wang family might be beyond his capability to inherit in the future.

After sending his wife away, Wang Jingzhong rubbed his Taiyang Acupoint with some distress and then dialed a secret phone number only he knew.

"Old Li, how’s the investigation into Fang Bai’s background coming along?"

As soon as the call connected, Wang Jingzhong got straight to the point.

"Mr. Wang, the investigation is pretty much complete. I was planning to report to you in the next few days."

"Tell me now."

"Alright. Fang Bai, male, twenty years old this year, graduated from Zhongzhou Medical College, currently interning at Yanjing Hospital..."

Old Li, on the other end of the call, endlessly recounted his findings, digging up virtually all of Fang Bai’s ancestral history, indicating that he had conducted a thorough and detailed investigation of Fang Bai.

"...Strangely enough, according to one of Fang Bai’s classmates from Zhongzhou Medical College, Fang Bai had a weak constitution and timid personality half a year ago, and even girls in his class could bully him... Of course, it’s not out of the question that Fang Bai was feigning weakness at that time, pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger..."

Old Li continued.

"Is Fang Bai a disciple of a senior from the Ancient Martial World or from an Ancient Martial Sect? Have you checked this out?"

Wang Jingzhong was most concerned about this issue. If Fang Bai was a disciple of a senior or a sect from the Ancient Martial World, the situation would be more troublesome.

The Ancient Martial World held a special status, and none of the prominent clans in the secular world wanted to provoke them.

"I checked, but didn’t find any useful information. However, according to Fang Bai himself, he had studied ancient martial arts for several years with a Master as elusive as a divine dragon, but whether that’s true or not is uncertain."

Wang Jingzhong said, "In Huaxia, where hidden dragons and crouching tigers abound, there are many such masters. It’s not beyond the realm of possibility."

"Mr. Wang, although Fang Bai comes from an ordinary family, he maintains good relationships with many prominent clans, including the Su Family and Hua Family in Zhongzhou, the Lu Family, Jiang Family, and Dongfang Family in Yanjing, the Tang Family in Anxi, and the Ye Family in Lingnan... If you really want to deal with him, you must plan carefully before acting."

"How... How could this be possible?"

Hearing this, Wang Jingzhong inhaled sharply, finding it hard to believe.

The Jiang, Tang, and Ye families, each of them, had overall strength no weaker than the Wang family. The foundations of the Lu Family were even richer than that of the Wang Family. If these families were to interfere, the Wang Family would indeed have to think twice before taking action against Fang Bai.

Still, Wang Jingzhong firmly believed that as long as the Wang Family declared they would spare no expense in dealing with Fang Bai, those families would not necessarily turn against the Wang Family completely for Fang Bai’s sake.

"Mr. Wang, there’s nothing impossible about it. A martial artist with overpowering strength and superb medical skills—who among the prominent clans wouldn’t want to make his acquaintance? That’s all the information I have about Fang Bai. Is there anything else you need me to investigate, Mr. Wang?"

Old Li’s voice came through again.

"That’s all."

Wang Jingzhong hung up the phone with a grave expression, leaning back on the sofa, deep in thought for a moment, then stood up decisively, as if he had made a certain decision, and walked out of the villa.

At the northwestern corner of Wang Family Manor, there was a large bamboo grove. Walking through the bamboo grove for a while, one could see a small bamboo building standing secluded among the bamboo.

This bamboo building was where Wang Huashan, the old patriarch of the Wang Family and father of Wang Jingzhong, resided and cultivated.

All members of the Wang Family had been warned not to approach within thirty meters of the bamboo building without special circumstances, or they would be punished according to family law.

Even Wang Jingzhong, the family head, could not easily enter the bamboo building without permission.

After leaving the villa, Wang Jingzhong walked into the tranquil bamboo forest and stopped ten meters away from the bamboo building.

He knew that with his father’s strength, he would sense his arrival.

"Jingzhong, you seem to have something heavy on your mind!"

A few minutes later, an elderly but strong voice came from inside the bamboo building.

The speaker was none other than Wang Jingzhong’s father, the old patriarch of the Wang Family, Wang Huashan.

"Dad, Dong’er has caused trouble outside, and I don’t know how to deal with it, so I have come to seek your advice," Wang Jingzhong said respectfully.

Wang Jingzhong’s grandson was a mischievous child, and as an adult, he didn’t bring peace of mind either! This problem must be serious if even you, the family head, are unable to decide... Come in, tell me what happened."

The tone of Wang Huashan also grew grave.

Wang Jingzhong tiptoed into the bamboo building, sat down in front of his father on a bamboo chair, and recounted the conflict between his son and Fang Bai, as well as Fang Bai’s background and identity.

Wang Huashan listened silently, his brow furrowed, and he remained speechless for a long time.

A somewhat chaotic aura gradually filled the entire space of the bamboo building, making the atmosphere heavy and oppressive.

Wang Jingzhong knew that this was a sign of his father’s great anger, and he was forcibly suppressing the fury in his chest.

Wang Jingzhong also understood that his father was angry with his son, Wang Dong.

Wang Huashan had repeatedly advised the family’s younger generation to be low-key, to avoid causing, inviting, or stirring up trouble outside. However, Wang Dong, relying on his family background and the status of a martial artist, repeatedly caused problems that eventually required Wang Jingzhong, his father, to clean up the mess like a firefighter.

Other troubles could still be settled fairly easily with the Wang Family’s connections and some money, but the issue with Fang Bai was not so simple to resolve.

Fang Bai was not only a powerful martial artist but also a skilled physician and a respected guest of prominent clans like the Lu Family. The Wang Family had to consider the reactions of these families before taking any action against him.

The trouble Wang Dong had caused was no small matter, affecting the Wang Family’s face and reputation. If handled poorly, it could have a significant impact on the Wang Family.

No wonder Wang Huashan was angry with Wang Dong. Anyone else in his position would likely be utterly disappointed in Wang Dong.

Thinking about this, Wang Jingzhong felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles. Sweat began to seep from his forehead, and he dared not take a deep breath as he waited for the old patriarch’s thunderous wrath.

The bamboo building was silent, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

Wang Jingzhong sat stiffly in the bamboo chair, clearly hearing his somewhat heavy breathing and the "thumping" of his own heartbeat.

The sweat from his forehead kept flowing down, and he didn’t dare to raise his hand to wipe it away.

After a frightening period of silence, Wang Huashan finally broke it.
