I'm the man you can never have.

Seeing the smile on Fang Yu's face, Bai Zhan's heart skipped a beat.

Immediately, he felt a sharp pain in his right hand.

"How is this possible?" Bai Zhan's face changed slightly, and he concentrated all his strength in his right hand.

But Fang Yu's hand was like a piece of hard steel. No matter how hard Bai Zhan tried, he couldn't press it even a little bit.

"Have we met somewhere before?" Fang Yu squinted slightly and said.

At the same time, he exerted a little force with his right hand.

Bai Zhan's face turned from pale to green, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He was still gritting his teeth and holding on, otherwise he would have cried out in pain on the spot.

"Oh, you're the one who was sneaking around next to my vegetable garden yesterday," Fang Yu said.

Hearing this, Bai Zhan's face changed drastically.

How did Fang Yu know? He had hidden very secretly yesterday, and Fang Yu hadn't noticed...

No... could it be that he had already noticed at that time?

The sweat on Bai Zhan's forehead became more and more dense, and his face grew uglier.

The force in Fang Yu's hand was getting stronger and stronger. If this continued, the bones of Bai Zhan's entire right hand would be crushed.

At this moment, Tang Mingde and Yang Shaorong on the side also noticed something was wrong. Bai Zhan's expression was clearly one of pain.

Yang Shaorong's face looked a bit ugly, and he was about to speak.

At this time, Fang Yu let go of his hand, patted Bai Zhan on the shoulder, and said, "Nice to meet you."

Bai Zhan heaved a sigh of relief. His right hand was almost numb at this time.

"Hehe, very good. You'll have plenty of opportunities to communicate in the future. See you next time," Yang Shaorong forced a couple of laughs and walked towards the door.

Bai Zhan gave Fang Yu a deep look and followed him out.

After the two left, Tang Mingde looked at Fang Yu and asked, "Doctor Fang, did you... know them before?"

Fang Yu shook his head and said, "No."

In fact, Fang Yu had basically guessed their identities.

Yang Shaorong... Miss Yang... Bai Zhan.

Obviously, Miss Yang should be related to Yang Shaorong, probably his daughter. Bai Zhan was the one sent by Miss Yang to investigate Fang Yu at the vegetable garden yesterday.

"Does Yang Shaorong have children?" Fang Yu looked at Tang Mingde and asked.

Tang Mingde was taken aback for a moment and replied, "He has two sons and a daughter."

"What are their names respectively?" Fang Yu asked again.

"...The eldest son is called Yang Yun. It is said that he has great martial arts talent and is a disciple of the famous Master Gu in Jiangnan. The second daughter is Yang Yinzhu, a business prodigy. At a young age, she has already taken control of most of the Yang family's industries and led the Yang family to develop rapidly, making it one of the top families in Jiangnan. Among the three children, the youngest son, Yang Xu, is the most ordinary. He was the one Yang Shaorong mentioned just now."

The Miss Yang mentioned by those killers at that time should be Yang Yinzhu.

"Yang Yinzhu..." Fang Yu silently recited this name in his heart.

Tang Mingde sighed with emotion, "Yang Shaorong is really lucky. He doesn't have much ability himself, but his children are all extraordinary. Even the most ordinary Yang Xu is said to be a fifth - stage Xiantian martial artist at present, and his martial arts talent is also quite outstanding."

"Sigh, look at my children again..." Tang Mingde sighed and shook his head.

"Dad! How can you dislike your own children like this?" Tang Xiaorou's face turned red with anger, and she stomped her foot.

"Look, all you can do is act spoiled and get angry," Tang Mingde said helplessly.

"Dad!" Tang Xiaorou walked up angrily and punched Tang Mingde's chest with her small fist.

"Master Tang, I came today to ask you to do me a favor," Fang Yu said.

Tang Mingde immediately became serious and said, "Doctor Fang, feel free to ask. Our Tang family will definitely do our best to help."

So, Fang Yu told him about collecting demon beast inner elixirs.

"No problem. I'll send people to look for inner elixirs across Jiuzhou Country and buy them back," Tang Mingde agreed readily.

...

On the way back, Yang Shaorong was sitting in the car, looking at Bai Zhan's right hand, which had been pinched into a purplish - red color.

"Is this Fang Yu very powerful?" Yang Shaorong asked in a deep voice.

Bai Zhan shook his head and said, "This person... is very strange. The aura on him indicates that he has at most the strength of a fifth - stage Xiantian martial artist, but his strength is unexpectedly great."

"Then do you have the confidence to deal with him?" Yang Shaorong asked.

Bai Zhan hesitated for a while, then nodded and said, "In martial arts, brute strength alone is useless. He probably hasn't learned orthodox martial arts. And my realm is much higher than his. In actual combat, I should be able to defeat him easily."

Then, as if thinking of something, Bai Zhan said, "However, it seems that Master Tang values him very much. If we take action against him, will it cause the Tang family's..."

"Don't worry about it," Yang Shaorong waved his hand and said, "Fang Yu disrupted our plan first. It's justifiable for us to deal with him. He saved Ji Rumei, so he's the sworn enemy of our Yang family. Moreover, Yinzhu has given a death order to get rid of him."

"As for the Tang family, Tang Mingde is a smart person. I don't believe he'll fall out with our Yang family for such a small fry. Besides, even if the Tang family really falls out with us because of Fang Yu, we're not afraid. The strength of the Yang family is no longer afraid of any family in Jiangnan. Sooner or later, the Tang family will be trampled under our feet."

In this way, Bai Zhan had no more concerns.

"Master, I'll complete the task you and Miss assigned to me as soon as possible," Bai Zhan said.

...

Fang Yu stayed at the Tang family for dinner. Tang Mingde prepared a big table of dishes, which made Fang Yu very happy.

"By the way, don't you have a brother?" Fang Yu remembered Tang Feng whom he had met in the northwest and asked Tang Xiaorou beside him.

"My brother is studying at a university in Nandu. He only comes home during holidays and usually stays at school," Tang Xiaorou replied.

Fang Yu nodded and buried himself in eating.

Tang Xiaorou didn't eat much. She just kept observing Fang Yu quietly.

On weekdays, Fang Yu always looked lazy and didn't seem to care about anything. Unexpectedly, when it came to eating, he was quite serious and even commented on each dish.

"What kind of person are you exactly?" Tang Xiaorou stared at Fang Yu, her beautiful eyes flickering.

After dinner, Fang Yu went upstairs to take a look at Old Master Tang who was resting.

After the last acupuncture treatment, Old Master Tang's health had improved significantly. He coughed less, and his body didn't have any inexplicable pain when he slept.

"Yesterday, Xiaorou brought back the medicinal herbs you gave. Father took one dose of medicine and slept very well last night. We... really don't know how to thank you," Tang Mingde said gratefully.

"Help me collect more demon beast inner elixirs, and I'll have to thank you instead," Fang Yu said.

When Fang Yu left the Tang family, Tang Xiaorou followed behind.

"Do you want the driver to take you back?" Tang Xiaorou asked.

"No need. It's just right to take a walk after a full meal," Fang Yu said.

"Oh," Tang Xiaorou replied and silently followed Fang Yu.

After walking two steps, Fang Yu turned around and asked, "Why are you following me?"

"I, I'm also taking a walk," Tang Xiaorou said a little nervously.

Fang Yu ignored her and continued walking forward.

After walking for another two minutes, Tang Xiaorou summoned up her courage and asked, "Fang Yu, I want to know why you... are different from others?"

Fang Yu stopped, turned around, and walked up to Tang Xiaorou.

"You still seem very curious about me. What did I say before?"

Curiosity is the initial stage of love.

Tang Xiaorou remembered this sentence very clearly.

"I, I just..." Tang Xiaorou's face flushed, trying to defend herself.

"That's right. A kid of your age is indeed likely to be attracted to others easily," Fang Yu looked directly at Tang Xiaorou and said.

"What do you mean by kid? I'm about the same age as you!" Tang Xiaorou retorted, raising her head.

Fang Yu shook his head, then sighed and turned to leave, "Stop being curious. I'm a man you can never have."

"You... What did you say! Who wants to have you! I, I just wanted to ask..." Tang Xiaorou was both ashamed and angry, stamping her feet in anger.

Fang Yu had already walked far away.

"What's so arrogant about you? I'll dig out your secrets sooner or later!" Tang Xiaorou looked in the direction Fang Yu had left, her beautiful eyes shining.

...

At home, Wang Yan had prepared the meal and was bringing it to the dining table in the living room.

When Yu Yueyue walked in from the door, it was exactly six thirty in the afternoon.

After Jiang Yue apologized to Yu Yueyue, she didn't come to the rehearsal in the afternoon.

This also made Yu Yueyue heave a sigh of relief. She had been afraid that Jiang Yue would take revenge on her because of what happened in the morning.

"Yueyue, go upstairs and call Brother Fang Yu down for dinner," Wang Yan said.

To thank Fang Yu, Wang Yan had specially bought a chicken and fish at the market today and cooked several more dishes.

Fang Yu lending her 100,000 yuan was a huge favor.

Tomorrow, she would transfer 60,000 yuan back to her hometown to pay for her elderly father's surgery and buy him nutritional supplements with the extra money. The other 40,000 yuan, Wang Yan would save for Yu Yueyue's tuition.

Yu Yueyue ran upstairs and found that Fang Yu wasn't at home.

"Maybe he has something to do today. It doesn't matter. We'll wait for him to come back and have dinner together," Wang Yan said.

So, Wang Yan and Yu Yueyue started watching TV.

About ten minutes later, the sound of footsteps came from outside the courtyard.

"It's right here. I'll take you in," a man said.

Hearing this voice, Wang Yan, who was still watching TV, changed her expression instantly.

She immediately stood up, locked the door of the house, then pulled Yu Yueyue and hid in the room, locking the door again.

At this time, a group of people had already reached the door.

"The door is locked. Yu Chengye, are you playing us!?" A delinquent youth with a cigarette in his mouth twisted the doorknob and then slapped the bald - headed man next to him.

"Big brothers, how could I play you? Wang Yan is definitely at home at this time on weekdays," Yu Chengye said tremblingly.

"Brother Bin, the lights in the house are still on, and there are a lot of dishes on the table that haven't been eaten yet," a lackey stood on tiptoe and saw the situation inside the house and said.

"Oh? So there are people hiding at home?" Guang Bin took a hard puff of his cigarette, then threw the cigarette butt away and said, "Break the door down!"

The four lackeys behind him immediately stepped forward and started ramming the door.
