Behind him, several other men and women also had tears in their eyes and faces full of anger, seemingly all filial sons and grandsons.
"Seven-star Life Extension is inherently an act that defies the heavens. Isnât thunder and lightning quite normal in such cases? And I didnât say anything wrong, did I? This past year, the old lady didnât have any bloody disaster, did she?" Ling Baobao pursed his lips as he spoke.
"Then why did you run at that time? As soon as you saw something wrong, you ran faster than a rabbit. Isnât that a guilty conscience of a thief?" the middle-aged man said, unable to contain his anger.
If he hadnât run, the old lady might not have been so scared. But when she saw that even he was running, she naturally panicked and then was in a daze for a whole year.
Ling Baobao opened his mouth, intending to explain, but after thinking it over, he decided not to speak, and his expression grew even more dejected.
"You said I had an accumulation of Qi, causing my infertility for many years, and claimed you had a family ultimate skill for treating sterility, assuring that a few doses of your medicine would cure me. I spent 60,000 to 70,000 taels of silver in total and bought more than a dozen doses of your medicine from you. After taking it for over half a year, there wasnât the slightest reaction in my belly. How can you still say youâre not a swindler of the worldly society?" A well-dressed young lady also stepped forward and cursed loudly.
This young lady was indeed fierce, daring to speak openly about such matters.
"Ah, hey, I didnât deceive you, okay? You really did have accumulated Qi, and those doses did cure you. But how was I to know your husband had issues too? Can you blame me for that?" Ling Baobao said with a look of ill-fortune.
"What, you dare say I have a problem?" A man as tall as nine feet, looking like a huge black bear, suddenly jumped out. He raised his fist, large as a copper bowl, and smashed it toward Ling Baobaoâs face.
"I knew this would be the result of speaking out, but you really do have a problem. Why donât you try with someone else? I guarantee youâll be able to conceive," Ling Baobao said, dodging the fists while speaking in frustration.
Seeing that the man was about to strike, Yan Yuchu originally wanted to stop it, but hearing Ling Baobao blurt out such nonsensical talk, she lost the urge to intervene.
"You deceive my wife and dare to suggest I wear a green hat... Iâll beat you to death!" Hearing Ling Baobaoâs words, Black Big Man exploded like ignited dynamite, charging like a mad bull.
"Cough, cough, thatâs not what I meant, donât hit me, donât hit me, let me explain first." Only then did Ling Baobao realize he had spoken out of turn and grew so pale with fright that he began running around the hall. Black Big Man relentlessly pursued him, determined not to give up until he had beaten Ling Baobao to a pulp that day.
Mu Hanyan was both annoyed and amused by the scene. The earlier two matters might indeed be a misunderstanding in Ling Baobaoâs favor. However, with the Seven-star Life Extension and specialized infertility treatment, the more she heard, the more he sounded like a swindler from worldly society. She wondered where he had learned all this nonsense. (Where do you think he learned it from? In "Shocking Poisonous Concubine," whoâs the number one God-man?)
"Stop hitting, or Iâll really fight back."
"Donât think Iâm afraid of you, Iâm really about to fight back."
"Do you think Iâm joking? Youâll regret it when I fight back."
"Enough, stop hitting me. Isnât it enough that I admit my mistake?"
Ling Baobao was chased around the room by Black Big Man, initially throwing out a few defiant words. However, after he sprouted two panda eyes, his bravado completely disappeared.
Mu Hanyan watched the scene with relish, noticing that Ling Baobaoâs movement technique and footwork were extremely intricate, and the moves he occasionally employed in his self-defense were nearly perfect. Yet his Qi was exceptionally feeble, as though his cultivation was being suppressed by something. This Ling Baobao was becoming more and more mysterious to her.
