Chapter 35 Shitty father

After they finished talking and Yang Chen had confirmed that he had the ability to run the pharmacy company without a problem.


The sound of the Korean drama caught the attention of Lin Ruoxi. She really liked to watch them.


Yang Chen saw that her attention was moved to the Korean drama. He then said something to her with a smile.


"Let's watch it together. I still haven't had a chance to watch this one. I will go and prepare a snack for us. What do you like?"


"It's okay. You can bring anything. I am not picky."


Yang Chen nodded, then went to the kitchen. Wang Ma recommended snacks that Lin Ruoxi might like and he grabbed them and came back to the living room with snacks. They were ready to watch the Korean drama together.


Just as Ruoxi started to relax and continue to watch the Korean drama with Yang Chen, the doorbell suddenly rang.


Wang Ma, who was busy in the kitchen, dashed out while wiping her wet hands on her apron and opened the door.


“Master, you’ve come."


Hearing Wang Ma say Master, Lin Ruoxi’s face suddenly became pale as she stopped watching TV. She turned around to look at the middle-aged man walking into the house.


The mature man wore a dark blue shirt while giving off a refined aura with his well-shaved beard. The only way you could tell his age was by the wrinkles near his eyes and the countless strands of white hair. One can clearly tell that he should be Lin Ruoxi’s father from his appearance alone.


At the same moment Lin Kun entered the living room, his expression became extremely ugly. Giving dagger-looking glances at Ruoxi, he quickly swept his gaze around and glanced at Yang Chen.


“Father…” 


Lin Ruoxi weakly called out.


“Father?” 


Lin Kun coldly said. 


“In your eyes, do you even see me as one? Without any warning, you just married this strange brute. Do you even see me as a father?”


Lin Kun’s roar caused the whole room to shake and echo.


Wang Ma, standing at the wrong place and time, was very scared. Never would she have expected that her little Miss would marry someone without informing her father.


Lin Ruoxi’s eyes began to turn red as tears started welling up inside. However, she fought back, saying,


“As I’ve said before, my marriage is my decision. So what if he is a brute? I would rather marry this man than Xu Zhihong.”


Yang Chen's eyebrow twitched as the pair of father and daughter called him brute. He took a deep breath, trying to maintain his composure.


“You… Is this how you talk to your father?” 


Lin Kun sneered.


“Great, what a waste raising you up. Don’t ever think that just because your grandmother gave you the company, I can’t educate you on what to do! Don’t forget, I still have 30% of the shares in the company. I am a major stockholder. Even more importantly, I am your father!”


“Father?” 


Lin Ruoxi bit her lips and wept. 


“Ever since I was little, only my mother and grandma were by my side. I never even caught a glimpse of your shadow back then. Furthermore, I don’t like Xu Zhihong at all. You don’t have to waste your time thinking about this.”


“You don’t like him? So what? It wouldn’t hurt to be engaged with the next CEO of Donghua Science & Technology Co. And are you telling me that you actually like this brute?” 


Lin Kun said while pointing at Yang Chen, who was still watching Korean dramas.


From the moment Lin Kun entered until the father-daughter conversation, Yang Chen understood how Lin Kun saw Lin Ruoxi. He didn't see her as his daughter at all, but as a mere tool for his own personal gain.


"Stop talking bullshit already. You just want to sell your daughter so you can get more power and wealth. It's sickening how you view her as nothing more than a pawn in your game. Don't forget that she is not only your daughter but my wife as well."


Yang Chen stood up from the sofa, and then everyone in the room felt very cold. His words hung heavy in the air, piercing through the tense silence that had settled over the room.


“You prick, even you are talking back to me? I’m aware of who you are! I have already assigned people to investigate you clearly. You’re just a wet market’s mutton skewer vendor. Even though I don’t know what you did to my daughter to make her marry you, in my eyes, you are just a pile of shit!"


"That's it. I have had enough."


Lin Kun suddenly fell to the ground. He tried to breathe, but he couldn't. Yang Chen had used his Qi to seal his lung.


Lin Ruoxi knew immediately that it was him who made her father collapse. She rushed to his side, panic filling her eyes as she pleaded with Yang Chen to release him from whatever he did.


"Please, Yang Chen. Even though he is bad, he is still my father. Please don't hurt him anymore."


Seeing that Lin Ruoxi was about to cry. Yang Chen sighed and walked toward her. He looked at Lin Kun, who had lost his consciousness already. He then stuck his finger on his chest, and then he began to breathe again.


"Don't cry, Ruoxi. Even if he died, I could bring him back to life anytime I wanted."


Yang Chen wiped away Lin Ruoxi's tears gently and reassured her.


"I won't do anything bad to him anymore. I understand that he is your father, and I don't want to see you in pain." 


Lin Ruoxi looked at Yang Chen with gratitude in her eyes, relieved that he had shown mercy towards her father.


Yang Chen, after consoling Lin Ruoxi, grabbed Lin Kun by the collar. Lin Ruoxi wanted to ask what he's going to do with him.


"I will see him out. Don't worry. I won't do anything bad to him, like I have promised you. And I never go back on my words."


Yang Chen just left him outside the villa. He would only give him one chance. If he didn't learn his lesson that time, even Lin Ruoxi asked him. He won't just lightly punish him anymore.


'What a shitty father.'
