Since Xu Fan had come to know Xia Yanyu, the two had never seen eye to eye and it was almost impossible to see a smile on their faces.

But at this moment, Xia Yanyu saw that Xu Fan before her was wearing a smile...

"Let's go, let's find a place and clarify everything."

Before Xia Yanyu could figure out the deep meaning behind Xu Fan's smile, Xu Fan spoke up.

Xia Yanyu came back to her senses, looked at the old Xu, who was following Xu Fan with a look of aggrievement, and instantly understood.

Clearly, just now, Xu Fan had already uncovered the truth. The instigator of this accident was indeed someone from her own side.

"Old Xu, you..."

Xia Yanyu remembered old Xu, who had been working at the pharmaceutical factory since she was very young.

She really couldn't understand why he would do this.

She wanted to immediately understand the reason, but there were too many people around at this moment, so she whispered to the factory manager and then led Xu Fan and old Xu to a conference room in the pharmaceutical factory.

Soon, the three of them entered the conference room.

After Xu Fan found a chair and sat down, his gaze shifted to old Xu.

"Keep kneeling."

Old Xu, looking aggrieved, immediately knelt down.

Xia Yanyu didn't feel any dislike for Xu Fan's behavior at this moment, given the serious trouble this time, if it had been someone else, old Xu might have already lost his life.

"Old Xu, my Xia Family has treated you quite well, why would you do this..."

This time, Xia Yanyu looked at old Xu and asked him.

Old Xu had no dislike for Xia Yanyu; he had practically watched this young girl grow up.

Today, his actions had nearly devastated the Xia Family, and old Xu's face couldn't help but show some guilt.

"Miss, it wasn't aimed against your Xia Family, but rather..."

At this, old Xu feebly looked towards Xu Fan.

Xu Fan squinted his eyes and laughed incessantly, "Oh? You mean it was aimed at me?"

"We don't seem to have any grievances, right?"

"..."

Old Xu gloomily lowered his head. He indeed had no grievances with Xu Fan, but regarding Xu Fan's master, he was itching with hatred.

"If it weren't for your darn old master, how would I end up working in this small pharmaceutical factory..."

With old Xu's abilities, even being the manager of this pharmaceutical factory would have been an underachievement. Recalling the humiliations he suffered back then, old Xu's tears couldn't help but fall.

Being bullied by that old man was one thing, but to be bullied by his junior as well was unbearable!

"Stop squeezing out tears."

Xu Fan glared at old Xu and scolded him.

So today's losses were caused by that damn old man's doings back then?

"You better tell me, how did that old man harm you?"

Having spent so many years with that old man, Xu Fan had never heard him mention this fellow. Xu Fan was now curious about what had actually happened back then.

With a poison pill in his stomach currently taking effect, old Xu had no reason not to confess when Xu Fan demanded it.

This time, he sighed and then looked towards Xia Yanyu.

"That was decades ago, if I'm not mistaken, Miss, you were still in your mother's belly at that time."

"At that time, the old master was seriously ill, his life hanging by a thread, and the entire Xia Family was in complete chaos."

"Fortunately, the Divine Skills of the Xia Family were vast, and at that time, they invited me, a renowned Divine Doctor from Huaxia, to treat the old master's illness."

It seemed that recalling the glorious deeds of the past straightened the spine of Old Xu, who knelt on the ground.

"The old master's illness was indeed very strange, I remember even I felt a headache at that time, but would Xu's reputation be unearned?"

"Give me a bit more time, and the old master's illness would surely be easily handled, but only... "

At this point, a trace of hatred emerged on Old Xu's face, and seeing this, Xu Fan couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

One needn't look to know that an annoying old fool had meddled.

"I don't know where that despicable old man came from, causing chaos in the entire Xia Family, and he even dared to call me a charlatan? Thinking about it now, I still find it infuriating!"

"Hate your grandpa's hate."

Old Xu might as well have written "irreconcilable" across his face. Impatient, Xu Fan gave him a look and scolded, "If your skills are inferior, they are inferior, stop acting as if you've been wronged."

"If you really had the ability, would it even come to that old man stepping in?"

"..."

Clearly having guessed right, Old Xu pursed his lips unhappily and grunted.

"Although that old man was peculiar, he did have some skills. He healed the old master of the Xia immediately, whereas I was denounced as a charlatan and had my past misdemeanors dug up... "

"Oh?"

Xu Fan listened and narrowed his eyes continuously. The old fool might have had a strange temperament, but he had integrity.

This Old Xu, he was likely a charlatan back in the day, and who knows, he might have even caused the deaths of quite a few people.

"That old man was quite fearsome, I was nearly beaten to death by him on the spot. Fortunately, your father begged for mercy on my behalf, which spared me from death..."

At this point, Old Xu shook his head bitterly and sighed, "I took a lot of persuading before that strange old man calmed down and said I had to serve the Xia Family for life to atone for my sins before he would forgive me."

Hearing this, Xu Fan roughly understood what was happening.

This guy had been caught with leverage on him, so with all his skills, he ended up begrudgingly working in this pharmaceutical factory.

His Medical Skills, inherited from the old fool, this guy had probably spotted something in the prescriptions.

All these years of accumulated resentment, he thought of performing revenge.

"In my view, the old fool should have simply castrated you back then."

Thinking about today's events, Xu Fan could not help but curse.

Old Xu twisted his mouth in grievance and started muttering quietly.

"I'm a charlatan, but your master wasn't necessarily a good person either..."

"Just cured an illness, that despicable old man, actually pointing at the mistress's belly, wanted this daughter as a wife for his future disciple."

"What?"

Hearing this, Xu Fan raised an eyebrow involuntarily and subconsciously glanced at Xia Yanyu.

Xiao Die was much younger than Xia Yanyu, the child in their mother's belly at that time must have been Xia Yanyu.

Could it be that the one arranged in marriage to him was not Xiao Die, but Xia Yanyu?

"Old rascal, you better not be fooling me."

The marriage certificate given by the old fool had clearly written the name Xia Xiao Die, and at this moment, Xu Fan coldly turned his gaze to Old Xu.

Xia Yanyu stood nearby, feeling rather uncertain.

Her grandfather had passed away when she was very young, and with her mother denying these matters, she had always believed that the marriage Xu Fan mentioned was made up.

Now that Old Xu had spoken about these old incidents, Xia Yanyu couldn't help but feel conflicted.
