“Those three children aren’t yours.”
Those were Lin Yan’s exact words to Xu Changlong.
Xu Changlong’s face darkened. “Kid, you’ve miscalculated. I’ve had a paternity test done.
They’re all clearly my biological children!
Any last words? Spit them out!”
Lin Yan narrowed his eyes. “Were you hit by a car when you were a child?
And did you lose sensation in your lower body for a long time?”
Xu Changlong froze for a moment, then looked at him in surprise.
“How did you know?”
He had never told anyone about it. Only his parents knew.
Lin Yan smiled faintly. “I practice Traditional Chinese Medicine. It relies on inspection, listening, inquiry, and palpation.
I saw it through 🟡inspection diagnosis🟨.”
Xu Changlong found it utterly absurd.
It wasn’t as if he had never seen a Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor. He had even consulted several veteran practitioners, yet not one of them, no matter how experienced, had ever diagnosed someone through 🟡inspection diagnosis🟨 alone.
And Lin Yan was clearly a young man with little experience!
“I was young and foolish. After harvesting the wheat, I used to spread it out on the national highway to dry.
Once, a big truck couldn’t stop in time and hit me.
Luckily, I reacted quickly and dodged a little, so it didn’t hit me head-on.”
“Afterward, I spent a full six months in the hospital before I regained sensation in my lower body. But I was fine after that,” Xu Changlong said.
Lin Yan smiled faintly. “It didn’t have much impact on your daily life.
But it left you unable to father children for the rest of your life.”
Xu Changlong stared at Lin Yan in shock. “You mean… I’m infertile?”
Lin Yan nodded. “That impact obstructed your sperm ducts. If they’d caught it in time and operated back then, there might have been a chance to fix it.
What a pity…”
“You’re talking nonsense! I’ve always had a great time whenever I slept with a woman!
Nothing’s ever been blocked!” Xu Changlong roared.
Lin Yan replied helplessly, “A blocked vas deferens doesn’t affect your sex life. It just means you can’t get a woman pregnant.
It’s like a water heater connected to a faucet at home. If it breaks, you just won’t get hot water, but the faucet can still run cold water.”
Xu Changlong fell silent.
After a long while, he asked in a trembling voice, “Why should I believe you?”
“You don’t have to believe me. You can settle this with a single paternity test, can’t you?
But you’d better have someone you trust handle it.
With your influence, Master Long, it should be easy to get a hospital to expedite a paternity test, right?” Lin Yan said calmly.
“A Biao, get over here!”
Half an hour later.
Xu Changlong clutched the expedited paternity test results, his eyes bloodshot!
Without a word, he turned, grabbed Ma Yourong by the hair, and dragged her to a secluded corner.
Ma Yourong was still bewildered. “Honey, what… what are you doing?”
“You slut! You dared to cuckold me?”
Xu Changlong flung the paternity test results in Ma Yourong’s face.
Ma Yourong looked at the results as if struck by lightning.
“Honey, listen to me. They really are your daughters…”
“You still dare to say that? If even one of them were mine, I wouldn’t be this angry!
Damn it, three kids!
And not one of them is mine!!!
I could go out dressed as a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle right now without even needing makeup!!!” Xu Changlong roared.
“They’ve called you Daddy all these years! Don’t you feel anything for them?
Does blood relation matter that much?
People who can’t have children adopt all the time, don’t they?
If a child calls you Dad, then she’s your daughter!”
Ma Yourong argued hysterically.
Just then, A Biao came over and swallowed nervously before speaking.
“B-Boss… the hospital just called to tell us… that…”
“Tell me what?! Spit it out!” Xu Changlong snapped impatiently.
“They said the madam is pregnant with your fourth child. They asked me to congratulate you…”
“Damn it!!!!”
“Changlong, I swear this one is yours! Really! I promise!”
“Drag her out! Get her out of here! And deal with those little bastards too. I never want to see them again!!!”
After Ma Yourong was taken away, Xu Changlong wilted like a deflated balloon.
“Little brother, thank you. Otherwise, I might have spent my whole life raising someone else’s children,” Xu Changlong said gratefully.
“It was nothing,” Lin Yan replied nonchalantly.
“By the way, I haven’t asked your name.”
“Lin Yan.”
“Hmm? Are you that Lin Family kid who went to prison?”
Lin Yan smiled bitterly and nodded, then told him the truth.
“They made their biological son take the blame for an adopted fake son they’d mixed up at birth?
That’s even more outrageous than all three of my kids being someone else’s!
Are the Lin Family’s brains made of donkey shit?” Xu Changlong said indignantly.
After a pause, Xu Changlong continued, “Brother Lin, we’ve both had hard lives. How about we become sworn brothers?”
Seeing how forthright Xu Changlong was, Lin Yan readily nodded.
“All right, Big Brother!”
“Hahaha, good brother! If you ever need anything, just let me know. Your big brother will stand up for you!” Xu Changlong laughed heartily.
“Big Brother, actually, I can treat your infertility,” Lin Yan said.
“Really? Didn’t you say it couldn’t be treated?” Xu Changlong asked in surprise.
“Other people can’t, but your little brother, the Divine Physician, can!” Lin Yan said.
“How long will it take to cure?” Xu Changlong asked.
“One needle is all it takes!”
With that, Lin Yan took out a three-inch silver needle and precisely inserted it into Xu Changlong’s Guanyuan and Zhongji acupoints. He gently rolled it between his fingertips, sending true qi through the points.
In moments, Xu Changlong felt a warm current surge through his lower abdomen, clearing the blockage and relaxing his whole body. He exclaimed in delight, “It really feels like things down there are flowing again!”
Lin Yan withdrew the needle and brushed his sleeve. “As long as the woman has no problems, there’ll be good news within three months. And… it’ll most likely be a boy!”
Xu Changlong wept with joy and nearly fell to his knees before Lin Yan.
He was the only male heir in his family for three generations!
Ordinary people couldn’t understand his obsession with having a son.
“Brother, if we really get good news, I’ll have the child call you godfather!”
“I have something to take care of. I’ll head inside first.”
After Lin Yan left, Xu Changlong sighed. “Damn, I really hit the jackpot today. I actually got myself such an incredible sworn younger brother!
Too bad I don’t have much to repay him with…”
A Biao reminded him, “Master Long, don’t forget you brought a 100-million-yuan contract for the Lin Group today!”
Xu Changlong slapped his forehead. “That’s right!”
…
…
Inside the house.
“Sir, Young Master Lin is back!”
“Xiao Che is back? Heh, looks like he managed to persuade that good-for-nothing,” Lin Fusheng said with a laugh.
“He spent five years in prison. No woman will want to marry him now.
Lin Yan must be so grateful to us for finding him a rich Tang Family heiress to marry!” Yang Yuxia said smugly.
Lin Fusheng nodded in agreement. “Exactly. A convict paired with an ugly widow—it’s a match made in heaven. Hahaha!”
But when they saw that Lin Yan was the only one who had arrived, Lin Fusheng and Yang Yuxia both froze.
“Where are Xiao Che and your eldest sister?” Lin Fusheng asked with a frown.
“One shit himself so badly he doesn’t know which way is up, and the other passed out from the pain of a kidney stone lodged in her urethra. They’re probably both in the hospital now.”
Lin Yan said calmly.
“What?!”
Lin Fusheng looked panicked and hurriedly said, “Quick! Get the car ready! I’m going to the hospital to see Xiao Che!”
Yang Yuxia’s face was full of concern too. She hurriedly threw on a coat and rushed to follow him.
Lin Yan found it deeply ironic.
Their legitimate young master had suffered in prison for five years, and they hadn’t even bothered to ask about him.
Their Fake Young Master, Lin Che, had only gotten kidney stones, yet they were acting as if the sky had fallen.
The difference between love and indifference was painfully obvious!
“Dad, Mom… I’m back.”
Just then, Lin Che came limping in.
He still had a urine bag attached, and it was full of blood.
When he saw Lin Yan there too, Lin Che’s eyes reddened with fury!
He was one hundred percent sure Lin Yan had caused his kidney stone!
At the hospital, the doctor had planned to perform ureteroscopic lithotripsy and stone removal under general anesthesia.
But today was his celebration banquet, and the day he was supposed to sign a 100-million-yuan deal with Changlong Group.
Lin Che had gritted his teeth and gone through the procedure under partial anesthesia!
In reality, “partial anesthesia” meant they had only injected a little anesthetic into his urethra, with very limited effect.
During the operation, Lin Che felt as if knives were slicing through his urethra and red-hot irons were burning him. He screamed for two straight hours like an air-raid siren!
Even the punishments in the Eighteen Hells couldn’t have been much worse!
They had inserted a catheter and made him sign a liability waiver. Only then had he managed to struggle home.
“Lin Yan, just you wait!
Once I’ve signed that major deal with Changlong Group and become the true head of the Lin Group, I’ll show you what I can do to you!”
