"Bang!" In the blink of an eye, just as the blond thug was about to hit Liu Suhe, Chen Ping'an's eyes shot out a blood-red light. He lifted his foot and kicked the thug squarely in the chest with great force! The nearly two-hundred-pound thug flew backward, crashing heavily into the yard. Chen Ping'an's eyes turned red, his killing intent surging! "Ping'an, don't fight! Have you forgotten what happened three years ago?" Liu Suhe desperately hugged Chen Ping'an, her voice hoarse from crying as she begged. "..." Chen Ping'an paused, his clenched fists slowly relaxing. He couldn't bear to see his mother heartbroken because of him again. Their shattered family needed him to hold it together. The most pressing matter was to find out what had happened to his family! Where had Liu Dan been these past three years? Why hadn't his mother mentioned her at all? "Damn it, kid, you've got guts to hit me!" The thug, supported by his lackeys, spat blood from the corner of his mouth, wincing in pain. As he inhaled, his stomach churned, blood surging within. "Go back and tell Brother Jiu that I, Chen Ping'an, will repay every penny we owe him." Chen Ping'an's face was stern, his gaze sharp as a knife. "But whatever is owed to the Chen family, I will take back every penny!" "Alright, kid, you've got guts. Just you wait!" The thug spat his threat before retreating to a van at the entrance and driving off. "Mom, so much has happened in the past three years. Hasn't Dan Dan come to visit you at all? Didn't she help our family even a little?" After the thugs left, Chen Ping'an couldn't hold back his questions any longer. Liu Dan and Chen Ping'an had started dating in school and had a great relationship. Back when they were interns at the hospital, Chen Ping'an ended up in jail for standing up for Liu Dan. Moreover, Liu Dan came from a wealthy family. Her parents were in the medical equipment business, and she only worked for experience, getting at least 200,000 yuan a month as pocket money! Why didn't she help? "Ping'an, Liu Dan isn't suitable for you." Liu Suhe's gaze wavered, her words hesitant. "Mom, what happened with Dan Dan?" Chen Ping'an sensed something was wrong. "And even if we were poor, Dad was a well-known doctor in the area. We shouldn't have had to borrow from loan sharks just to treat Xiao Song's illness, right?" "Our clinic is gone." Seeing she couldn't hide it anymore, Liu Suhe told the truth. "What? The clinic is gone? Why?" Chen Ping'an was shocked. The Chen family clinic had been passed down for generations, for over a century. How could it be gone just like that? "Liu Dan took it." "Dan Dan? Why?" Chen Ping'an's eyes widened in disbelief. "About a month after you went to prison, Liu Dan came to us, claiming she was pregnant with your child and demanding child support." Liu Suhe explained, "Your father saw that she was indeed pregnant. Thinking you two had been together for years, he sold the clinic and gave her all the money, 300,000 yuan, saying it was our family's responsibility since you being in prison was disgraceful." "Pregnant?" Chen Ping'an's eyebrows twitched, a rush of anger surging through him as he clenched his fists! He wanted to kill someone! He wanted to confront Liu Dan face-to-face! Because from the beginning of their relationship, Chen Ping'an had never crossed the line. Their relationship was always respectful, only holding hands and kissing. He had never even undressed her, so how could she be pregnant? This was a green hat indeed! "Yes." Liu Suhe sighed, "A year later, we went to visit the child, only to be told it had been lost..." "Liu Aunty, Liu Aunty, are you home?" As they were speaking, a clear voice sounded. Chen Ping'an turned to see a familiar figure in green rushing into the yard. "Xiaoxue, I'm inside. Come in quickly." Liu Suhe recognized the voice and quickly invited her in. "It's you? Su Muxue!" "Chen Ping'an? You... you got out?" Su Muxue was stunned, covering her mouth in shock as she stared at him. "Yes, I'm out. You..." Chen Ping'an nodded, not unfamiliar with Su Muxue. They had been classmates from high school through university. After graduation, Su Muxue chose to work at another hospital. He didn't expect her to come to his home. "Ping'an, you should thank Xiaoxue." After offering Su Muxue a glass of water, Liu Suhe said, "These past three years, our family has been in turmoil, and it's thanks to Xiaoxue's help that Xiao Song's medical expenses were greatly reduced because of her connections at the hospital." "Thank you." Chen Ping'an finally felt a warmth in his heart. He hadn't expected Su Muxue to help his family. Back in school, they had always competed fiercely, each vying for the top spot. "It's nothing. It's what I should do." Su Muxue brushed a strand of hair aside, a blush spreading across her fair cheeks. Su Muxue was very beautiful. Her loose green dress added a youthful charm, yet couldn't hide her curvaceous figure. Her oval face had two dimples, and her smile was fresh and clean. "Oops!" In her movements, a red invitation card fell to the ground. Chen Ping'an bent down to pick it up. As it opened, a familiar photo caught his eye. "Chen Ping'an, I..." Su Muxue tried to snatch it back, but Chen Ping'an's face had turned terrifyingly dark! On the invitation card, a smiling woman leaned against a man. The woman was Liu Dan, his girlfriend, and the man was Gao Yang, the scoundrel Chen Ping'an had beaten up three years ago. He would recognize them anywhere! "They're getting married?" Chen Ping'an's voice was hoarse with anger as he clenched his teeth. For Liu Dan, he had spent five prime years of his life in prison. For three years, Liu Dan had bled his family dry, leaving them in dire straits. The downfall of the Chen family was partly her doing! "Ping'an, don't be sad. Liu Dan isn't worthy of you." Liu Suhe sighed as she saw the invitation, "We heard rumors the year you went to prison. A year ago, your father saw Liu Dan get into a man's car. They were very close..." "Mom, I'm fine." Chen Ping'an forced a smile, "I'm not upset because of her. I'm angry at myself for being so blind back then, causing you and Dad so much worry and suffering. I'm sorry!" "But don't worry, now that I'm back, I'll work hard and support this family. I'll make sure you and Dad have a good life." Chen Ping'an promised his mother. "You're back, and that's what matters. Everyone makes mistakes, but I believe you'll rise again." Su Muxue also comforted him. She had rushed over, hearing about the trouble at the Chen household, hoping to help. Now seeing Chen Ping'an back, she didn't stay long, leaving after exchanging contact information with him. "Xiaoxue is a good girl. We're lucky she helped us these years." Liu Suhe watched Su Muxue leave. "Mom, you rest at home. I need to go out for a bit." Chen Ping'an felt a pressing need to vent his anger. "It's almost noon. Where are you going? Eat first." "No, I'll go find a job." Chen Ping'an lied. With his skills, did he need to find a job? But he had to understand why Liu Dan had deceived him and why she was marrying Gao Yang. And he needed to deal with Brother Jiu! The loan sharks had targeted his family, unaware that Chen Ping'an had a reputation in prison as the "Prison King."
