"Meng'er, why did you join in?"
Lin Fan was somewhat helpless. Fang Meng, as the only Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian among the women, actually joined the battle.
"Xiao Meng didn't just join the battle. Didn't you notice? She used the law of time to speed up the time in the virtual world. You thought we fought for one night, but in fact we have been fighting for ten thousand years!"
At this time, Lou Xiao'e, who was fighting with Ning Zhongze, suddenly smiled and said to Lin Fan.
"Why do I feel like the world has changed after I woke up? My woman has turned into a fighting maniac? Xiao'e, you have to take responsibility. You have changed the atmosphere at home!"
Hearing this, Lin Fan glared at Lou Xiao'e. It was all because of this crazy woman. She was always thinking about finding someone to fight with. Now, even Fang Meng and the others have gone crazy.
"It's my fault!"
Lou Xiao'e shrugged indifferently. If you have the strength but don't fight, what's the difference between you and a salted fish.
"Okay, you guys take your time and play, I'll go get Qin Huairu!"
Lin Fan shook his head helplessly, then disappeared from the sight of the girls and came to the courtyard world.
At this moment, the courtyard was as lively as if a general meeting was taking place, with everyone gathered in the central courtyard.
However, what Lin Fan didn't expect was that he actually met two people he shouldn't have seen.
One is Jia Zhang, who has lost her memory and should have gone south to beg, and the other is Yi Zhonghai, who has committed a crime and should have been in jail.
"How is this going?"
Lin Fan walked out of the house, came into the crowd, and asked about Yan Bugui.
"Lin Fan, you finally came out. Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhang are back. What do you think we should do?"
Yan Bugui was at a loss, and when he saw Lin Fan appear, it was like seeing a savior. He quickly grabbed his hand and asked him for help.
"Yi Zhonghai, why are you out? Shouldn't you still have two and a half years left in your sentence?"
Lin Fan pushed Yan Bugui away and asked, staring at Yi Zhonghai who was obviously much older.
"I was lucky. There is a Xumi Illusionary Realm near the prison. I gained some opportunities in the Xumi Illusionary Realm and exchanged them for contribution points. Then I handed in all the contribution points. It was considered a major meritorious service, so my sentence was reduced!"
Although Yi Zhonghai looked a little haggard, he was obviously in a very good mood. After all, he had escaped from the prison cage.
"Oh? So that's how it is, Yi Zhonghai, you're really lucky!"
Lin Fan raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He didn't expect that it was because of his Sumeru illusion that Yi Zhonghai got the opportunity to reduce his sentence.
But Yi Zhonghai has been imprisoned for two and a half years less. Can he change for the better? Can he learn some singing and dancing, ahem, some special skills?
"People won't be unlucky all their lives. I believe that from today on, my luck will turn! With the Xumi Illusion, even becoming an immortal is no longer a fantasy. Lin Fan, let's wait and see!"
Yi Zhonghai was full of confidence at this time. He knew that it was impossible for him to compete with Lin Fan, so he was prepared to spend the rest of his life honestly. Even after he was released from prison, he would never go against Lin Fan again.
But at this time, the illusion of Sumeru appeared, and the opportunity to change fate came.
Not only was he able to be released from prison early, but he also had the confidence to get more opportunities.
From now on, it is still unclear who will win between him and Lin Fan!
Lin Fan couldn't help but smile when he saw Yi Zhonghai's confident look.
Yi Zhonghai only knew that the Sumeru Illusion changed his fate, but he didn't know that the Sumeru Illusion was set up by Lin Fan.
So it was actually Lin Fan who changed his fate. It was really ridiculous that he even dared to provoke Lin Fan.
"I'm telling you, I, Yi Zhonghai, didn't escape from prison, but was released early due to a commutation of sentence. You don't have to be afraid of me! And when you explore the Xumi Illusion in the future, you may need my experience and tips. Now I, Yi Zhonghai, want to serve as the head of the courtyard again. Do you agree or disagree?"
Yi Zhonghai saw Lin Fan's disdain, but he didn't care. He was confident that he could impress Lin Fan in the future.
But the most important thing right now is to return to the throne of the uncle.
After all, he had been in jail. If he couldn't regain his position as the boss, people in the hospital would probably look down on him.
Chapter 997 Jia Zhang's Resentment
"I object!"
An obvious smile flashed across Lin Fan's face, and then he slowly expressed his objection.
"Why do you object?"
Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai's face suddenly darkened. He thought that if he took out the huge temptation of Sumeru Illusion, everyone in the yard would unconditionally support him to return to the throne of the eldest master.
Unexpectedly, no one in the yard said anything, and Lin Fan even directly expressed his opposition, which was really beyond his expectations.
"A man who has been to prison wants to be the boss of the yard. Don't you think it's shameful? We all think it's shameful!"
Lin Fan did not give Yi Zhonghai any face and directly pointed out the fact that he had been in jail, which made Yi Zhonghai's face even darker than the bottom of a pot.
"Do you all have the same opinion as Lin Fan?"
Knowing that Lin Fan's argument was not convincing, Yi Zhonghai chose not to waste words with him. Instead, he turned to Yan Bugui and the others and started asking.
He knew the nature of these people in Siheyuan too well. If they didn't take advantage of the opportunity, they would feel uncomfortable. If he promised them benefits, it would be difficult for them not to be fooled.
However, to Yi Zhonghai's disappointment, although Yan Bugui and the others looked a little hesitant, they did not speak for him.
"Old man, let's go back!"
The aunt looked at Yi Zhonghai's embarrassed and angry expression and shook her head helplessly, then took his arm and walked towards home.
It was a good thing that Yi Zhonghai was able to get his sentence reduced so that he could live a good life in the future.
But why didn't he repent at all after he was released, but instead became even worse?
You have to know that Yi Zhonghai never dared to confront Lin Fan head-on before.
Now, after spending some time in jail, he has become bolder and even dares to confront Lin Fan.
"Why are you leaving? I'm right here. I'm just Lin Fan. What's there to be afraid of?"
Naturally, Yi Zhonghai was unwilling to run back home in such shame.
This would mean admitting defeat to Lin Fan, and secondly, giving up the opportunity to regain his dignity in front of everyone in the courtyard.
"The villain succeeds!"
"you!"
Lin Fan glanced at Yi Zhonghai and pointed out his current mentality, which was purely that of a villain succeeding.
After getting a little opportunity, I thought I could reach the peak of my life.
He looks so smug, as if he doesn't care about anyone, but in reality, he is nothing!
Although Yi Zhonghai was angry, he knew he couldn't win the argument with Lin Fan, so he kept silent.
"Anyway, I don't agree with Yi Zhonghai wanting to be a boss. What do you think?"
As Lin Fan spoke, a sarcastic smile flashed across his face. Although the smile was fleeting, Yi Zhonghai still saw it and kept it in his heart. The seeds of hatred took root in his heart and would sooner or later grow into a towering tree.
"That's right, we don't agree either. This is unacceptable!"
Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong took the lead in opposing it. Although there were conflicts between them, they had to unite to face the outside world at this time. After all, Yi Zhonghai was the biggest threat.
Even though Yi Zhonghai had been in jail, he was still much smarter than them. If Lin Fan hadn't been here, they still wouldn't be able to defeat Yi Zhonghai.
"Okay, Yi Zhonghai's matter has come to an end. Jia Zhang, tell me, what's going on with you?"
Lin Fan stretched out his hand, motioning for everyone to be quiet, then looked at the ragged Jia Zhang and asked.
"What happened to me? I was taken away by those loan sharks, and none of you helped me! They were all beasts, and they beat me beyond recognition. Later, I finally found an opportunity to escape, but I was knocked unconscious by a brick before I even ran out of the alley. When I woke up, I couldn't remember anything. Then I went all the way south to beg, not knowing where I was going or who I was until I was hit by a car yesterday morning. Only then did I remember what happened before, and I traveled a whole day and night to get back to the courtyard!"
As soon as Jia Zhang opened her mouth, she burst into tears and snot, and her voice was full of tears and heartbreak.
She felt as if she had suffered a great injustice and hoped that someone could pity her and comfort her.
Of course, no one in the hospital felt sorry for her, because her character was so bad, and no one in the hospital had a good relationship with her.
"It is only natural to pay back debts. How can you let us take care of it? You are the one who borrowed money from loan sharks. You should bear the responsibility yourself. Do you want us to help you?"
Liu Haizhong couldn't help but give Jia Zhangshi a blank look. Those debt collectors were just like a gang of hooligans. Who would dare to intervene?
"Also, Jia Zhang, those debt collectors originally thought you were dead and that you had gone to the south, so the debt was left unresolved. But now you're back again. If those debt collectors knew about this, they would definitely come to our door again. Don't let us get involved when that happens!"
At this time, Yan Bugui did not forget to remind Jia Zhangshi that she had not yet repaid the money she owed. If those debt collectors knew that she was back, she would be in trouble.
"Ah? They almost killed me last time, isn't that enough?"
Upon hearing this, Jia Zhang immediately trembled in fear. She was really scared by the debt collectors. After all, they were really ruthless.
If they came to the courtyard to find her again, Jia Zhang was not sure whether she could still survive in their hands.
It was pure luck that I survived last time. Those debt collectors must have thought I was dead when they left.
If they knew that she was not dead, they would never let her go. Jia Zhang didn't think she would be so lucky every time.
"What do you mean by enough? Have you paid back the money? If not, this is not over!"
Liu Haizhong sneered when he heard this. He would be happiest to see Jia Zhangshi in trouble. It would be best if Jia Zhangshi was beaten to death.
"Qin Huairu, please save me! If they come again, I will be dead!"
Jia Zhang fell to her knees in front of Qin Huairu and began to beg.
Since it was a matter of life and death, she did not dare to act tough and could only surrender and beg for mercy, hoping that Qin Huairu could save her.
"Have you forgotten what you said when you borrowed money from me? At that time, you said that you didn't need to pay me back. You made money, and I didn't want to spend your money. Everyone was there at the time, and they all heard it. Now you want me to save you, but I can't save you!"
Qin Huairu looked at Jia Zhang, who was kneeling in front of her, looking embarrassed and haggard, but her expression was very calm and she had no intention of helping her.
Jia Zhang is an ungrateful person. Even though she is being humble now, she looks like a dog wagging its tail to beg for mercy.
But if I help her pay back the money, she will immediately turn against me and become even more demanding, without end.
"Qin Huairu, are you still a human being? I am your mother-in-law!"
Jia Zhang didn't expect that Qin Huairu would remain unmoved even when she knelt in front of her.
It's just a hundred dollars. Qin Huairu has the money. Why should she just stand by and watch him die?
Does she only become happy if I die in front of her?
Chapter 998 Yi Zhonghai's Pain
"I understand now. Jia Zhang borrowed money from someone at high interest rates, right? Before, that group of people came to the courtyard to collect the debt and took Jia Zhang away in front of you. They even almost beat her to death. You just watched and did nothing?"
