Chapter 1144 I'll Sue You at Any Cost!

Ling Zhenhua slapped her hard.

The woman's face swelled up instantly!

He wanted her to have a taste of her own medicine, which was to be slapped hard, though the punishment was nothing compared to his daughter's suffering.

"I won't touch your filthy money!"

After the resounding slap, Ling Zhenhua said coldly, "I'll sue you, at all costs. I don't believe you can defy every law and regulation by relying on your money!"

"The oldest and brothers, let's go."

When he was done, he turned around to leave.

Fang Qiu was delighted with his performance.

Ling Zhenhua had a pleasingly direct manner, and Fang Qiu admired it. As a man from the northeast, he was clear-cut on his likes and dislikes. He could kill her right on the spot, but he chose not to do so because he would always stand firm on the key issues of principle. He would make sure she got her just deserts in the most righteous way!

This was also what Fang Qiu thought in his heart.

Therefore, Fang Qiu didn't get physical with her. Instead, he threatened her verbally and allowed her to call for help.

With Wulin people, they could settle the dispute by Wulin rules, but it would be dishonorable to handle ordinary people by force.

"Let's leave."

Fang Qiu got up.

He waited for the others to go out first.

When his men went out, Fang Qiu turned to look at Zhang Yiran and warned, "If you're thinking about playing any dirty tricks, I'll retaliate tit-for-tat. But before that, I advise you to seek advice from the person who's backing you up."

Having said that, he strode away.

They walked out of the company building.

"Go and investigate that old man."

Fang Qiu said to He Gaoming, "The powerful elder is not an individual cultivator. If so, we would have recognized him. Generally, only the experts from some Wulin forces can go into hiding so carefully. You should investigate it thoroughly. I want to ask him for an explanation for hurting my brothers!"

"Okay."

He Gaoming immediately nodded and said, "I remember his face. It will be much more convenient to trace him."

"Moreover," Fang Qiu thought for a moment, adding, "Check out this real estate company and see if it has done anything illegal."

"Okay."

He Gaoming nodded.

He knew what John Doe meant: they were going to crush Zhang Yiran's business and let her get her comeuppance!

Meanwhile, Ling Zhenhua went straight to the police station to file a report.

...

After Fang Qiu left with his men, Zhang Yiran calmed down a little in her office.

She recalled the last sentence Fang Qiu had said before he left.

Zhang Yiran did not dare to hesitate for a moment and quickly took out her phone to call the old man.

"Didn't you hear what I said? Don't call me again."

When she got through, the slightly annoyed voice of the old man rang out.

"Uncle, they're gone."

Zhang Yiran lost no time asking, "John Doe, is he so capable that even you can't subdue him?"

"Humph, what do you know about him?"

The old man snorted and said, "John Doe is more than capable. This guy is the God of slaughter in Wulin! Everyone in Wulin is afraid of him!"

"What matters most is that he is very protective of his disciples. A middle-sized force once attacked his disciple, which was later destroyed and he did it all by himself. Countless Wulin people have died in his hands. Going against him is akin to courting death!"

"Don't contact me, and don't call me again, or I'll be in trouble if he finds out who I am. Let's wait until this matter is over!"

...

The old man hung up on her.

"The God of slaughter in Wulin?

"He single-handedly destroyed a force?"

Hearing the old man recounting Fang Qiu's feats, Zhang Yiran was scared.

Before this, she had it in mind to get even with John Doe, no matter how much it would cost. However powerful John Doe was, she did not mind spending money to hire better experts and take him down!

But now she found out exactly who John Doe was.

According to the old man, no Wulin expert dared to go against John Doe, right?

If she went too far as to incense him, it would be too late to have any regrets when he turned to deal with her.

She put down the phone.

Zhang Yiran realized she had provoked someone she couldn't afford to offend. In no time, she called the bank, asking them to prepare a lot of cash -- she was ready to pay Ling Zhenhua a visit with the money and apologize in person.

It was hard for the bank to gather so much money in such a short period. Therefore, Zhang Yiran just took out one million Huaxia dollars from the bank and immediately asked her driver to take her to Ling Zhenhua's house.

Unexpectedly, just as she arrived at his house, Zhang Yiran encountered several policemen who had come to obtain evidence there. Before she could apologize, they brought her to the police station and detained her for further questioning.

In this regard, Zhang Yiran did not panic.

In her opinion, this matter was nothing serious. All of this was because she slapped a little girl. As long as she sincerely admitted her mistake, apologized to everyone, and paid the compensation, this crisis would be over.

Therefore, after entering the police station, Zhang Yiran immediately contacted her lawyer and started planning the compensation.

Before long, He Gaoming discovered that there were a lot of problems with Yiran Real Estate.

Among them, forced demolitions were the most common. Besides, there were even a few cases of hurting people and smashing their possessions.

After finding out this information, He Gaoming contacted each of the victims over the years and urged everyone to go to the police station and report their cases. And they did what he suggested.

Real estate developers were particularly annoying.

This time, someone had taken the lead in making trouble for their personal enemies. Knowing this, these victims, who had been simmering with resentment for many years, immediately stood up to join the fight. All of them chose to report their grievances and cases of injustice to the police!

Even the local police station was rocked.

It didn't occur to the police that people would throng the police station to report their cases, all of which were related to Yiran Real Estate!

The next day, Zhang Yiran's lawyer came to the police station again.

"I've worked out all the details of the settlement of claims according to your request, but the thing is, you may be in big trouble."

The lawyer said to Zhang Yiran.

"Big trouble?"

Zhang Yiran was confused.

"Your company has done many forced demolitions, smashing up peoples' possessions and resorting to violence. You must be very clear about that. The victims from those years have come to report their cases to the police, and there are at least a dozen cases in total," said the lawyer.

"What?"

When Zhang Yiran heard this, her face suddenly turned taut and pale.

She sat there transfixed with horror.

She was stricken with remorse when she recalled what she had done and her current situation. She was not aware that she had hurt so many people. Now when she was going downhill, everyone came to the police station to give her a push!

"Think about it carefully: how are you going to deal with these things?"

The lawyer reminded her.

"With money."

Zhang Yiran did not hesitate and immediately said, "Just use as much money as you need to defuse the crisis!"

"Okay."

The lawyer nodded and said, "I'll do it immediately."

...

It was the next day, so Fang Qiu changed his identity again. He called He Gaoming and quietly went to Ling Zhenhua's house.

"How's the child?"

Upon arriving at Ling Zhenhua's house, Fang Qiu gave the girl a check-up.

"What?"

During the examination, Fang Qiu pretended to be surprised and asked, "How could she recover so fast? And the blood stasis in her brain is gone. Going by the current situation, she only needs one more treatment."

Hearing that, Ling Zhenhua immediately thought of John Doe, and his heart swelled with gratitude to him.

Fang Qiu didn't wait any longer.

He immediately stretched out his hands to sort out the child's internal condition by running his internal Qi. After he did some adjustments to her body so it would be in its best condition, he got up and was ready to leave.

"Doctor Fang."

After the treatment, Fang Qiu was sure that she had fully recovered. Seeing that Fang Qiu was leaving, Ling Zhenhua immediately went forward and grabbed him. Then he took out a stack of cash from his trouser pocket, handed it to Fang Qiu, and said, "I'm a poor man. If you don't think it's too little, please accept this money and consider it as payment for your fee. You came all the way here to treat my daughter for free. If you don't accept it, I'll be very sorry to have put you through so much trouble."

"Do you think I'm short of cash?"

Fang Qiu shook his head, pushed back Ling Zhenhua's hand that was holding the money, and said, "I can get a substantial reward either by shooting a movie or by examining a rich patient. I don't need this money. Keep it for yourself. I regard you as a friend, so I have come a long way here. But you are so formal with me. Don't you regard me as your friend?"

"No, that's not what I meant."

Ling Zhenhua was anxious.

"It's all right, I'm leaving."

Fang Qiu patted Ling Zhenhua on the shoulder and turned to leave.

"Thank you."

Ling Zhenhua shouted at Fang Qiu from behind, "Many thanks, Great Doctor Fang!"

Fang Qiu left quickly.

After confirming that no one was following him, Fang Qiu returned to his room in the hotel and changed to his identity of John Doe. Then he went back to Ling Zhenhua's house.

"Master."

Catching sight of John Doe, He Gaoming immediately came up and said, "Where did you go? Fang Qiu just left."

"I've met him."

Fang Qiu nodded and didn't say anything more.

"Oh."

He Gaoming nodded knowingly.

"How is the investigation I asked you to do coming along?" Fang Qiu asked.

"I found something worth mentioning."

He Gaoming nodded in reply and said, "That old guy's name is Ma Chunyu and he belongs to a medium-sized Wulin force named 'Peace Faction.' According to records on the Wulin online forum, Ma Chunyu has achieved the eighth-class with two opened meridians and is an elder of the Peace Faction. However, the Peace Faction is a very low-key force that has never done anything bad in Wulin. I can't believe the old guy is from this force."

"Great."

Fang Qiu nodded with satisfaction and said, "We've traced him to his group and shouldn't have any fear of him running away!"

"But it's a little troublesome to deal with Yiran Real Estate," He Gaoming continued.

"What's wrong?" Fang Qiu asked.

"Well, I contacted many of the poor people who had suffered because of Yiran Real Estate and asked them to file their reports to the police. However, after one day, all of them withdrew their cases. I asked around and found out that Zhang Yiran is spending a heck of a lot of money in order to tide over the crisis."

He Gaoming said.

"Humph!"

Fang Qiu gave a snort of contempt.

"Master, just tell me, how far can we go?" He Gaoming asked.

"Bad deeds, as well as good, may rebound on the doer. You can trust your own judgment and do whatever you want. I'll back you up," Fang Qiu said.

"Okay."

He Gaoming chuckled and said, "I just can't stand that nasty bitch. She's the most unpredictable and fickle woman I've ever met. Since she has done so many evil things, I'll make her eat her own bitter fruit."

After that, John Doe pretended to check the girl, though he had just done that as Fang Qiu.

As for He Gaoming, he was busy making calls to his friends who had excellent computer skills and who were hackers. This bunch of pals began to frantically spread on the Internet all the vicious things that had been done by Yiran Real Estate and its sordid business on the sly that had hurt many people.
