Chapter 153 - 153: An Unreasonable Demand
Chapter 152: The Lion’s Demand
The phone call was abruptly ended.
Mr. Yin was almost infuriated.
Marcus looked at Nan Yan, who had only answered the call for less than five seconds before hanging up, and couldn’t help but ask, “Yan Yan, why did you hang up again?”
“It’s fine, just an unimportant person.”
Nan Yan casually played with her phone, waiting for Mr. Yin to call again.
Asking for a reconciliation while still being so temperamental, who’s been spoiling them like this?
Mr. Yin simmered with anger for a while before dialing Nan Yan’s number, still suppressing his temper.
Nan Yan ignored him for a while before answering.
“Nan Yan, I’m Yin Yichen’s father. Let’s meet.’
Mr. Yin tried to control his tone as he spoke.
Nan Yan leaned back on the sofa, a hint of coldness in her raised eyebrows. “If you want to reconcile, what price is your Yin family willing to pay?”
“It seems Nan Yan already has an idea. Why not tell us? Whatever you’re thinking, let’s hear it,” Mr. Yin replied, trying to turn the situation around and let Nan Yan make the demands first, then he would exert pressure.
Nan Yan gave a disinterested chuckle. “Since Mr. Yin is so ‘sincere,’ I’ll reluctantly propose a condition. As long as the Yin family donates one hundred million in my name to the Red Cross Society to help those women who have been mistreated, I’ll consider letting this matter go.”
Mr. Yin’s face turned as if he had eaten a fly.
He didn’t expect Nan Yan to demand such a huge sum, a whole hundred million!
And it wasn’t even for herself, but for a donation to the Red Cross Society.
He could certainly afford a hundred million.
But there was no way he would give it to her!
“Such audacity for someone so young. Do you think you can play me like this?” Mr. Yin’s tone was scornful.
Nan Yan’s voice was indifferent. “Think whatever you like. I’ve laid out my conditions. If you accept, I’ll sign the settlement agreement. Otherwise, your son can look forward to prison.” “Hmph. ”
Mr. Yin angrily hung up the phone.
Mrs. Yin couldn’t hear Nan Yan’s voice, and seeing Mr. Yin’s expression, she quickly asked, “What happened? What did she say?”
“She’s demanding a hundred million,” Mr. Yin’s facial features twisted in disdain.
“That shameless brat, has she gone mad?” Mrs. Yin was shocked. “Does she really think she can do whatever she wants just because she’s got us in a tight spot?”
“She never intended to reconcile in the first place,” Mr. Yin snorted. At this point, he was fully aware of Nan Yan’s attitude.
“What should we do then? Are we really going to let Yichen go to prison?” Mrs. Yin’s voice trembled.
“It’s not that easy!” Mr. Yin started the car. “Let’s go find the people from the An family.”
If they couldn’t break through from Nan Yan’s side, then they would start with An Yaoqing and the others.
Lately, the An family was in a tough spot. As long as he showed goodwill, he wouldn’t need to approach Nan Yan again. They would pressure her to provide a settlement statement.
Nan Yan received Marcus’s blood test report and carefully examined it.
After reading it, she looked at Marcus with a somewhat amused expression.
“Um… Yan Yan, please don’t look at me like that…” He felt uneasy under her gaze.
“I congratulate you for successfully losing half of your life,” she remarked.
If it weren’t for her, that remaining half wouldn’t have lasted much longer.
“Cough… Yan Yan, don’t scare me. With you here, can you save that remaining half of my life?” Marcus was no longer interested in risking his life.
With Nan Yan around, he just hoped to live a few more years.
Nan Yan rolled up the test report and tapped it on his head twice. “Let’s see if you’ll cooperate.”
Marcus quickly nodded, “I’ll definitely cooperate! Whatever you want me to do, I’m in!”
Nan Yan thought about the medications she needed to treat Marcus and realized she didn’t have enough on hand.
She took out her phone, logged into the Dark Realm, placed an order for the required medications, and restocked a few other items as well.
After placing the order, she put her phone back in her pocket and looked at him. “Are you going to stay in the hospital or go to a hotel?”
“Let’s go to a hotel. I don’t like the smell of hospitals. The scent of disinfectant was too overpowering.”
“Alright. I’ll give you some emergency medicine for now. Once the other medicinal ingredients arrive, I’ll start your treatment.”
Nan Yan went to find Director Tao, gave him a prescription, and asked him to prepare the medicine for Marcus for the next three days.
In about three days, the medications from the Dark Realm would also arrive.
Once Director Tao brought the prepared medicine to her, they both went to the hotel reserved for Marcus.
“I have other matters to attend to. If you need anything, contact me,” she informed him.
“Oh…” Marcus actually wanted Nan Yan to stay. They had just met, and he had so much to say. However, Nan Yan seemed to be carrying secrets and didn’t seem ready to be open with him.
He could only suppress his curiosity and obediently agree.
The rest, he would have to wait until she was ready to reveal.
Once Marcus was settled, Nan Yan headed to the Lin family’s residence.
At the An family residence.
Mr. and Mrs. Yin paid a visit.
The people from the An family were unaware of the situation, but they warmly received the Yin couple upon their arrival.
After all, the Yin family was more powerful than the An family in every aspect.
Seeing the current ruling figure and his wife personally coming to visit them, the An family felt a mix of honor and surprise.
“Mr. Yin, Mrs. Yin, please have a seat!”
An Yaoqing, who hadn’t gone to the company today, was at home discussing matters with his three sons.
Facing Mr. Yin, he couldn’t afford to be lax.
Lu Lehua hurriedly asked a servant to prepare tea.
With an air of superiority, Mr. Yin spoke, “We’ve come to see Brother An today regarding the matter involving our two children.”
“Two children?” An Yaoqing was a bit puzzled. “Is it Yao Yao and the young master from your family?”
An Yaoqing had heard from An Muyao that Mr. Yin’s eldest son was a devoted fan of her.
Could it be that they were here to discuss a potential marriage alliance?
An Yaoqing couldn’t help but feel excited. His decision seemed to be justified.
Even if there were some scandals involving An Muyao, true aristocratic families wouldn’t mind such matters.
They valued capability and strategy more.
And Muyao had both of those qualities!
“It’s not that,” Mr. Yin’s expression darkened a bit. “It’s about Nan Yan.”
“Nan Yan?” An Yaoqing was genuinely surprised this time. “Could it be that the young master isn’t interested in Yao Yao…”
“It’s not about that!” Mr. Yin interrupted with a touch of irritation. “It’s a minor disagreement between the two kids.”
Then, Mrs. Yin explained the conflict between Yichen and Nan Yan to An
Yaoqing and his wife. Of course, she presented it in a way that favored Yichen.
She didn’t say that Yin Yi had purposely hired someone to rape Nan Yan. Instead, she portrayed it as Yichen merely trying to joke around and scare Nan
Yan.
As a result, Nan Yan reported it to the police, had Yichen arrested, and intended to press charges against him, all leading to him being imprisoned.
After Mrs. Yin finished explaining, Mr. Yin continued, “Brother An, this was originally a minor misunderstanding between the children. Yichen didn’t really intend to do anything, but Nan Yan misunderstood. Now it has escalated to this point. If not handled properly, Yichen’s reputation will definitely be tarnished. ”
“I hope the two families can sit down and talk it out, not letting the situation spiral out of control.”
An Yaoqing followed Mr. Yin’s lead and nodded, “You’re right, this matter shouldn’t be blown out of proportion….”
