Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor-Chapter 85: Supporting You to Woo Her!

Holding the bank card her son had given her, Yang Mei was not only excited but also extremely proud.

Every family hopes their sons will become dragons and their daughters phoenixes. Now, her son had finally become promising and began to give back to the family, making all those bitter years she and her husband spent raising him worthwhile.

With a million yuan, their family couldn’t yet claim to be rich and noble, but it was certainly well-off, and they wouldn’t have to live so frugally anymore.

That same afternoon, Yang Mei called her daughter Fang Yun home, and the family made an exception to dine out at a fancy restaurant for dinner.

After the meal, they strolled around the nearby clothing mall.

Yang Mei had originally planned to buy several pieces of clothing for Fang Bai, who was about to go to Yanjing, but he declined.

"Mom, it’s inconvenient to carry too much when you’re away from home. A few pieces of clothing will do for me. If I need anything, I can just buy it in Yanjing," Fang Bai said with a smile.

He continued, "But you and Dad should really buy some new outfits. You keep wearing the same two sets, washing and wearing, and wearing and washing, until they’re barely presentable. And Sister, she’s at the age to have a boyfriend, she should dress up more."

With a giggle, Fang Yun said, "Little brother, there’s no need for you to worry about your sister’s love life. On the other hand, you’ve got yourself a pretty girlfriend, and that makes me very happy!"

Knowing that his sister was referring to Su Linglong, Fang Bai said with a laugh, "I saved Su Linglong’s life; she’s just grateful to me, and she never said she wanted to commit herself to be my girlfriend."

Fang Yun retorted, "Just grateful? Does she need to skip school and visit the hospital every day to keep you company? Is it necessary for her to bring you chicken soup and other tonics every time? Little brother, stop hiding it from us."

Pausing for a moment, she added, "Su Linglong is beautiful, kind-hearted, and from a good family. I support you in pursuing her!"

Fang Bai knew his parents and sister all considered Su Linglong to be his girlfriend, and he couldn’t be bothered to clarify. He simply laughed and gestured with his hands, saying, "Enough about that. Let’s talk about buying clothes! Let’s do this: each of the four of us will buy two sets."

Yang Mei shook her head and said, "Your father and I won’t buy any. You two buy a few more pieces."

Fang Bai knew his mother was reluctant to spend money and urged her, "Mom, our family isn’t short of money anymore. I’m going to earn even more in the future, so there’s no need for you to keep scrimping. Starting now, we need to eat well, drink well, and dress well. Never short-change yourself, especially you two elders who have worked hard for most of your lives. It’s time for you to enjoy some comfort."

Fang Gang agreed heartily with his son’s words, and with a grand wave of his hand, he said boldly, "That’s settled then! I’ll buy a suit first!"

Yang Mei let out a "Pfft," gave her husband a disdainful look, and remarked, "Yeah right, with your figure and temperament, even the most expensive suit wouldn’t look good on you."

Fang Gang’s enthusiasm deflated, and he asked Fang Bai and Fang Yun with a wry smile, "Daughter, son, can’t your old dad pull off a suit?"

Fang Yun said with a chuckling smile, "Not at all, I think dad would look very handsome in a suit!" frёewebnoѵēl.com

Fang Bai nodded in agreement and said, "Dad, you’ve got a good foundation. Though you’re a bit on the thin side, that can be addressed with some exercise. As for temperament, just live a rich life for a while, and it will naturally develop. So I’m all for you buying a suit, and the more expensive, the better!"

Emboldened by his children’s support, Fang Gang puffed up his chest and said to his wife, "Did you hear that? My daughter and son have vision! Heh, I’ll definitely get a suit!"

Seeing her husband’s triumphant demeanor, Yang Mei couldn’t help but snort with laughter and reached out to flick him on the forehead, exclaiming, "You wish!"

A family of four had been shopping at a clothing mall for over an hour, and when they came out, each person was carrying two bags of clothes.

Fang Gang finally got the suit he wanted, along with a leisure jacket.

Yang Mei, Fang Bai, and Fang Yun also bought two sets of clothes each.

The four of them bought eight sets of clothes in total, which cost less than twenty thousand yuan, but it made Yang Mei’s heart ache.

After returning home, night had completely fallen. Yang Mei and her daughter Fang Yun were in their room, tirelessly trying on their newly purchased clothes in front of the mirror.

After washing up, Fang Gang sat on the living room sofa, watching the television news.

Fang Bai changed into a set of comfortable casual clothes and greeted his father, saying he was going to a classmate’s house for a while before slipping out the door.

Fang Bai’s visit to his classmate’s house was a ruse, his actual destination was 69 Light Avenue in the eastern suburbs of Zhongzhou City, a large car repair factory.

This place was the headquarters of one of the three major forces in the underworld of Zhongzhou, "Hungry Wolf Group."

Fang Bai was a man who clearly distinguished between gratitude and grudges, repaying both in kind.

Tu Fu, under the orders of the "Hungry Wolf Group" leader, had attempted to cripple Fang Bai’s limbs, and although the attempt had failed, it had still enraged Fang Bai.

The death of Tu Fu was not enough to calm Fang Bai’s fury. He wanted to find the person pulling the strings behind the scenes and repay them in the same manner.

Even now, Fang Bai didn’t understand why the "Hungry Wolf Group" leader targeted him, and only by finding the "Hungry Wolf Group" leader could he get an answer.

Fang Bai had learned from Tu Fu that the "Hungry Wolf Group" was one of the three major forces in Zhongzhou’s underworld, with hundreds of members, each one a desperate fugitive, with many fighters as capable as Tu Fu.

What was more terrifying was that the "Hungry Wolf Group" not only had numerous members but also possessed many lethal weapons.

Two years ago, in order to vie for territory and profits, the factions of the Zhongzhou underworld engaged in a chaotic and fierce shootout. The "Hungry Wolf Group" had used firearms, leading to multiple casualties. Eventually, the Zhongzhou City police force launched a large-scale operation, severely cracking down on the "Hungry Wolf Group" and other underworld forces, which finally brought the situation under control.

The "Hungry Wolf Group" started with violence and killings, and as its power expanded, in recent years it began to whitewash its operations. On one hand, it maintained some illicitly profitable businesses, and on the other, it also started engaging in legitimate business, effectively having a hand in both the underworld and legitimate society.

For example, the large car repair factory at 69 Light Avenue in the eastern suburbs of Zhongzhou City, which secretly served as the headquarters of the "Hungry Wolf Group," was on the surface one of their business outlets. It brought in tens of millions of yuan in revenue for the "Hungry Wolf Group" annually.

The composition of the "Hungry Wolf Group" members was complex, ranging from some high-ranking officials and dignitaries in Zhongzhou City to street vendors, encompassing all walks of life, even including many informants within the police force.

That was why, whenever there was any hint of activity from the police side, the higher-ups of the "Hungry Wolf Group" would immediately get wind of it and take countermeasures, thus averting danger.

According to some insiders, the "Hungry Wolf Group" had a powerful patron backing them, which was the fundamental reason they continued to operate despite repeated crackdowns and were never completely eradicated.
