Chapter 1086 - 1085: Irrevocable Fate

Club, Chairman’s office.

Lin Fan looked at the mother and son kneeling before him, feeling speechless at their pleas for him to spare Hua Yiwu, leaving him at a loss for words.

"You both should get up first," Lin Fan said.

Mrs. Hua said, "Mr. Lin, please spare my son. If you promise to let him go, I’ll get up; otherwise, I’ll remain kneeling."

Lin Fan: "..."

"Alright, kneel if you want," Lin Fan said, turning to Wei Jiansheng, "This must have been your idea, bringing them to me. What do you think I can do?"

Wei Jiansheng said, "Lin Fan, let’s not pretend between us. This is ultimately a matter between you and me. Your conflict with my Wei family isn’t new. I admit, you won; doesn’t that satisfy you? Isn’t it enough that I’ve admitted my defeat to you?"

Lin Fan laughed, "I understand. You think this is a battle between me and your Wei family, and now that you’ve surrendered, I should help you clean up this mess."

Wei Jiansheng said, "Isn’t it? With your ability, this matter can be stopped. It’s just a question of whether you’re willing."

Lin Fan said, "Young Master, do you even know what Hua Yiwu did?"

Wei Jiansheng said, "I know. He confessed everything to me."

Lin Fan said, "Since you know, you should be aware that what he did deserves death, and he should face severe legal punishment! His fate isn’t for me to decide but the law. You shouldn’t be coming to me; you should be facing the courtroom because Hua Yiwu will eventually sit on the defendant’s seat, awaiting legal judgment."

From the moment the police intervened, this matter was no longer under Lin Fan’s control.

Lin Fan merely gave it a push.

Wei Jiansheng still thought this was a battle between him and the Wei family, believing that as long as Lin Fan was willing, he could halt this matter. Wei Jiansheng failed to see the situation clearly.

Wei Jiansheng said, "Lin Fan, I know your abilities. You surely have a way to stop this matter. I’m here today not only to admit defeat to you but also to give you an opportunity."

Lin Fan said, "What opportunity?"

Wei Jiansheng said, "An opportunity to reconcile our differences. You wouldn’t really think our Wei family is easily bullied, would you? I admit, up to now, you’ve made things difficult for us, but that doesn’t mean you can keep winning. You wouldn’t want to keep being enemies with our Wei family forever. I’m here to ask you to resolve our conflicts, to stop here, to cease hostilities. I believe this would be beneficial for both parties!"

Lin Fan chuckled, "Are you trying to negotiate a ceasefire with me? Does Elder Wei know?"

Wei Jiansheng said, "I’ll explain it to my father. I’m his right-hand man now. He’ll accept my view. He surely understands better than me that continuing to fight with you has no benefit, so why not make peace?"

Lin Fan nodded, "That’s very true, and I agree."

Wei Jiansheng said, "Lin Fan, I am willing to be your friend. It’s good for everyone, isn’t it? You wouldn’t want someone constantly causing trouble for you, right?"

Lin Fan said, "Absolutely, it’s very annoying. If your Wei family doesn’t bother me anymore, that would indeed be a great thing."

Wei Jiansheng said, "Exactly, we’re all businessmen. Let’s not pretend about justice; as long as it’s advantageous for business, what does anything else matter? Hua Yiwu being guilty or deserving punishment has nothing to do with you; you’re not the police, right?"

Lin Fan said, "Makes sense."

As businessmen, putting business first and harmony brings wealth is most important.

Wei Jiansheng felt secretly delighted, thinking he was about to persuade Lin Fan. Evidently, Lin Fan didn’t want the Wei family as an enemy either, and the chance to reconcile with the Wei family would certainly be welcomed by Lin Fan.

Perhaps this was Lin Fan’s original intention.

"Since that’s the case, it’s settled then. Lin Fan, let Hua Yiwu go this time, and from now on, you will be a friend of our Wei family!" Wei Jiansheng said.

Hua Yiwu pleaded, "Mr. Lin, please spare me. I can guarantee to you that I will sincerely reform, be honest and straightforward from now on, never commit any more wrongs. Please give me a chance."

Mrs. Hua also said, "Mr. Lin, let us know your conditions. As long as you spare my son this time, we’ll agree to all your conditions. If you want my son to quit the entertainment industry, we’ll permanently withdraw. If it’s money you want, we can donate all our assets to charity!"

Pity the hearts of parents all over the world!

Mrs. Hua was fighting desperately to save Hua Yiwu.

Everyone looked at Lin Fan, waiting for him to make a statement, as if he held the power of life and death over Hua Yiwu.

Lin Fan shook his head helplessly.

Mrs. Hua, as a mother, was also quite muddled. Hua Yiwu ended up like this, probably not without connection to her indulgent spoiling.

Lin Fan initially wanted to confront them.

But after some thought, he decided not to, some words are better left unsaid.

"I think I’ve already said what I need to say. Whether you continue to beg me or not is pointless because you’ve sought out the wrong person," Lin Fan said calmly, "Begging me to spare Hua Yiwu, I’m neither the judge nor the police. What do you want from me? Go ask the police if they can let him go."

Tap! Tap! Tap!

At that moment, there was a knock on the door outside.

Lin Fan looked up, "Come in."

Someone pushed the door open and walked in, leading was Loli in police uniform, followed by two male officers.

Loli looked serious, "Hua Yiwu, you are suspected of assaulting women, the investigation is complete, evidence is conclusive. Now the Yun City Police Station has joined with Hang City Police to officially arrest you. Please come with us, and I advise you not to resist pointlessly!"

Seeing the police, Hua Yiwu and Mrs. Hua turned pale with fright.

Mrs. Hua collapsed directly to the ground.

The two male officers came forward, and without saying a word, cuffed Hua Yiwu.

Lin Fan looked at Wei Jiansheng, saying, "See, I’ve told you, you’ve come to the wrong person, what use is coming to me?"

Wei Jiansheng’s face turned pale, his body trembling.

At this point, everything was beyond redemption; indeed, even if he bowed farther to Lin Fan, even kneeling to him would be useless.

Hua Yiwu was then taken away by the police.

Wei Jiansheng glared at Lin Fan, gritting his teeth, "Lin Fan, you made the wrong decision. My Wei family and you are now irreconcilable. It’s either you die, or I perish!"

This was a grave threat, but Lin Fan remained calm, saying nothing more than a smile, "Take care, won’t see you off."

Wei Jiansheng was infuriated, ignoring Mrs. Hua who was still collapsed on the ground, snorted heavily, and stormed out.

Mrs. Hua managed to get up from the ground. She knew it was useless to say anything more to Lin Fan now, she shot a resentful glance at him, turned and walked out.

That night, a trending topic shocked the entire internet: Hua Yiwu was detained!

The entire internet was in an uproar.
