Xu Fei nodded with great satisfaction after reviewing the video footage handed to him by Wang Qiang.
“With these videos, those guys are done for. Just wait to reel them in!”
Meanwhile, on the other side of the Zhu family’s old residence, brothers Huang Guan and Zhu Yi were holding a secretive discussion.
“Big brother, it’s been days already, how much longer do we have to wait? I can’t wait to see Xu Fei kowtow to me! That guy’s been too smug in my face!” Zhu Yi said, clearly still bitter about the humiliation of having to apologise.
“Don’t rush, when the time is ripe, I’ll make sure Xu Fei pays back every bit, with interest!”
“And since we’re out for revenge, let’s make it big! I’ve already informed Father in secret. When the time comes, in front of the entire Zhu family, Xu Fei will be utterly disgraced, with no chance of ever recovering!”
The next morning, Xu Fei told the Zhu family he had a family emergency and needed to return home, promising to resume the old master’s treatment the following day.
Wang Qiang reluctantly saw Xu Fei to the door.
Just then, a servant’s panicked shout came from the Zhu residence.
“Disaster! Someone come quick, the old master’s not going to make it!”
Hearing this, Wang Qiang’s expression changed, and he rushed back to check on the situation, while Xu Fei headed in the opposite direction.
“You deaf or what? My grandfather’s practically gone, and you, a doctor, are trying to sneak off? Got a guilty conscience, huh?” Zhu Yi, who had been prepared, blocked Xu Fei at the door.
Inside a room in the Zhu residence, the Zhu family members were kneeling before the old master’s bed. Apart from Zhu Hong, Xu Fei didn’t recognise any of them.
“My dear brother, you’re too late, Grandfather… he’s already gone!” Zhu Hong’s acting was impressive, tears streaming down his face, far surpassing the melodramatic wails of hired mourners.
“Really? It’s all this quack’s fault, if I hadn’t stopped him, he’d have slipped away!” Zhu Yi, arriving a bit late, cried while pointing accusingly at Xu Fei. Suddenly, a furious voice rang out.
“How dare you bring an outsider here at a time like this? Throw him out!” Zhu Hong quickly interjected, “Father, you’ve misunderstood, he’s not an outsider, he’s the doctor Uncle Wang Qiang personally invited. Just incompetent, that’s all! In fact, I think he’s largely responsible for Grandfather’s death!”
“Is that so? Wang Qiang, my father treated you so well when he was alive, and now you’ve dealt him a fatal blow? I’ll see justice done!” The middle-aged man was so agitated he nearly lashed out.
“Stop dawdling, seize these two culprits! Once the old master’s funeral is over, I’ll make sure they’re sent to the police station!” Soon, the Zhu family guards were summoned, restraining Xu Fei and Wang Qiang.
Gradually, the other relatives left the room, leaving only the father and his two sons, along with the old master on the bed.
“Didn’t expect the old man to die so quickly! Now, the Zhu family’s vast fortune is all ours, isn’t it?” Zhu Hong chuckled with glee. His father, more seasoned, quickly produced a pre-prepared will.
“Naturally. I’ve had this forged will ready for a while. Once we press the old man’s fingerprint on it later, the Zhu family will be ours to command!”
