Chapter 1972: Chapter 1968: Trouble Caused by the Younger Sister
"Too arrogant."
Hei Gelun cursed angrily.
"Enough! Whatever the possibilities are, our defense system must not have a single flaw. Keep him locked down for me."
Henry narrowed his eyes and gave the order coldly.
In a hospital in York City, the pale-faced Yang Wei lay on the bed like a dead man, his legs spread in a big V and suspended in the air.
It could now be confirmed that the thing down there that had only just been cured not long ago was ruined again, and this time it was completely destroyed, with no possibility of ever being healed.
A middle‑aged man whose features resembled Yang Wei’s and who carried an air of authority rushed into the ward. When he saw Yang Wei’s state, his body couldn’t help trembling. "Son, what happened to you this time?"
"Dad, I’m crippled again."
Seeing the middle‑aged man, Yang Wei burst into tears on the spot.
"Again...what on earth happened?"
Yang Hua stared wide‑eyed and asked.
"It was Tang Ming. He came to M Country."
Yang Wei roared through gritted teeth, "You have to avenge me!"
"That’s the guy who did this to you back in Songlan City?"
Yang Hua’s face darkened. Back in Songlan City, Yang Wei had suffered a crushing defeat: a Cross Training Martial Master under him had both hands crippled, and the total wipeout of the Yang Family’s forces there was all thanks to that Tang Ming. He had been furious over this for a long time.
"That bastard, yeah. He’s come to M Country. You said before that Tang Ming had a lot of power back home and even the official forces scrupled about him, so it wasn’t convenient to seek revenge. Now he’s here, and he’s beaten me into this again. You must stand up for me."
Yang Wei cried and shouted in utter misery.
"Damn it, this punk is pushing us too far. He dares to be this arrogant even after running to M Country. If we don’t kill him, how is our Yang Family supposed to hold our ground?"
Yang Hua’s face turned icy as he shouted, "Tell me everything that happened, every detail. What exactly went down?"
"I heard Li Wenxuan was back, so I went to Saint Yale University to find her, and then..."
Yang Wei truthfully recounted the entire sequence of events.
"It’s that Li Wenxuan again. Back then you ended up like that all because of her, and now it’s turned into this again."
Yang Hua’s face grew uglier as he said viciously, "This time the Li Family must give me an explanation. Otherwise I’ll take them down together."
"Uncle Yang, who pissed you off? Why are you so furious?"
Right at that moment, Li Wenmao, dressed in a suit, walked in. When he saw Yang Wei’s condition, he was startled.
"Yang Wei, what happened to you? I thought it was just something minor and you were hospitalized for a bit. Looks like..."
Li Wenmao swallowed hard, staring in disbelief at the wreckage below Yang Wei’s waist. Crippled again!
"Li Wenmao, you still have the nerve to talk? This was all caused by your sister."
Yang Hua looked at Li Wenmao coldly. "This time, no matter what, the Li Family has to give me an explanation. Otherwise I will never let you off."
"What did my sister do now? The Li Family has already agreed to marry Wenxuan to Yang Wei. As long as Yang Wei can get my sister to agree, we’ll hold the wedding immediately. What’s the problem?"
Li Wenmao looked at the father and son of the Yang Family with a puzzled expression.
"Bullshit! You say you’re marrying Li Wenxuan to me, yet she still acts like she’s Tang Ming’s fiancée. Where does that leave me?"
Yang Wei cursed in rage.
"Impossible! Back in the country, I already had my sister’s engagement to Tang Ming annulled. They shouldn’t have any contact anymore."
Li Wenmao said with certainty. It was precisely because he had unilaterally dissolved the engagement between Li Wenxuan and Tang Ming that the Li Family later lost Tang Ming’s protection and had no choice but to withdraw from the domestic market.
If they’d maintained the relationship between Li Wenxuan and Tang Ming, the Li Family would never have married Li Wenxuan to Yang Wei. They’d probably already be soaring to the top back home.
"Hmph! Are you saying my son is lying? That Tang Ming and Li Wenxuan are right there at Saint Yale University. It’s because of them that my son ended up like this."
Yang Hua snorted in disgust.
"What the hell is going on?"
Li Wenmao hurriedly pressed for details.
Yang Wei then recounted the whole thing again.
"There’s actually something like this? Don’t tell me my sister has gotten tangled up with Tang Ming again?"
Li Wenmao frowned in disbelief.
Ever since he’d taken it upon himself to annul the engagement between Li Wenxuan and Tang Ming, Li Wenxuan had stopped paying any attention to him and never discussed anything with the family.
Even this exchange trip to Saint Yale University—only after Li Wenxuan arrived in York City and went to visit her parents did the Li Family find out. So Li Wenmao had no idea that Tang Ming and Li Wenxuan had later become "teacher and student" again at Imperial University.
"You, tell me right now what the Li Family plans to do. Anyway, our Yang Family will stop at nothing to take out Tang Ming. Is your Li Family standing on his side, or on ours?"
Yang Wei asked impatiently.
"Well... The Li Family and the Yang Family have been close for generations. Of course we support the Yang Family."
Li Wenmao rushed to state his position. Although Yang Wei had done some bad things to Li Wenxuan back in the country, after leaving the domestic circle and returning overseas, the Yang and Li Families joining forces was the key to survival.
"Good. Then go back right now and inform your father to come to the Yang residence later so we can discuss how to deal with Tang Ming."
Yang Hua nodded in satisfaction.
"Alright. I’ll go back and tell my father now."
Li Wenmao gave Yang Wei a sympathetic look, then turned to leave. In fact, he could have just called, but he needed to go back and discuss this with his family first.
"Dad, the one who made a move on me was a foreign woman with blonde hair and blue eyes. From the way she carried herself, she seemed to have some power."
Yang Wei shifted his body with difficulty and looked at Yang Hua uncertainly. "She might not be easy to deal with."
"Hmph! In York City there’s no one our Yang Family doesn’t dare provoke... Do you know who that woman is?"
Yang Hua snorted and asked with a frown.
"That I really don’t know. But she gave me a business card and said if I wanted revenge I could go find her."
Yang Wei shook his head, shifted with difficulty, then said wretchedly, "I got knocked out at the time and forgot to put the card away. Now I can’t find it."
"If you can’t find it, forget it. Our target this time is Tang Ming anyway. No matter who’s backing him, here in York City, with the Li and Yang Families joining hands, we’ll definitely tear him to pieces."
Yang Hua waved dismissively, silently going over the various forces in York City. With the combined strength of the Yang Family and the Li Family, there shouldn’t be anyone who could stop them from killing Tang Ming.
At least the real Big Forces wouldn’t interfere in the internal strife of the Eastern Kingdom. Those bastards couldn’t wait for Easterners to fight among themselves!
That afternoon, in the Li Family’s villa estate in York City, a few people sat by the pool in the courtyard holding a meeting. Yang Wei, in a wheelchair, and Li Wenmao were both present.
