Zhang Yuanlin’s heart shook when he heard the amount of 500,000 yuan. This was not a small sum. He curiously looked at Zhang Fan, wondering where he managed to get 500,000 yuan from.

Not only him, even Xiao Qi, who stood in the courtyard, had a strange glint in his eyes. This was 500,000 we’re talking about.

“Impossible! How could Zhang Fan, this brat, get 500,000?” Qi Fang exclaimed, her eyes wide open in disbelief.

Even if she and Zhang Zhongliang did not eat or drink for a whole year, they would only save around 70-80,000. Considering expenses, it would be around 30-40,000 in a year. 500,000 yuan meant they would have to save for over ten years to accumulate that amount of money.

“Zhang Fan, you couldn’t have engaged in some shady business, could you?” Zhang Zhongliang said with a serious face.

500,000, huh? Even if they sold Zhang Fan, he doubted they could fetch that much money. How much money did Zhang Dongyang’s family have? He knew it very well. Throughout the year, they could not even save 10,000.

Apart from engaging in shady business, he couldn’t figure out how Zhang Fan could have obtained so much money.

“Shady business? Bullsh*t! I’ve been running this shop for so many years, and no one has ever said such things about me. Zhang Zhongliang, don’t think I don’t recognize you. Last year, you bought 5,000 worth of scratch cards from me, and not a single penny won. Now you come here accusing me? You really think I’m easy to bully,” Xu Fei wanted to smash the box in his hand on Zhang Zhongliang’s head.

“5,000? Zhang Zhongliang, where did you get 5,000 yuan?” Qi Fang widened her eyes, put her hands on her hips, and stared fiercely at Zhang Zhongliang.

“Darling, please let me explain. Last year, our eldest son got a job, and I was happy, so I thought of buying some lottery tickets. It turned out to be a scam,” Zhang Zhongliang hurriedly explained, then his gaze suddenly froze as he finally remembered who this bald guy in front of him was.

F*ck, it was the scratch card shop owner, Xu Fei.

However, when he thought about the 5,000 yuan he was scammed out of last year, his anger intensified.

“What? You want to stare at me? Believe it or not, I’ll dig your eyeballs out,” Xu Fei threatened.

“Hmph!” Zhang Zhongliang snorted coldly and remained silent.

Xu Fei ignored Zhang Zhongliang and walked to Zhang Fan with the box in his arms, whispering, “Little brother, this is 500,000 yuan. Check it.”

When Xu Fei opened the box, Zhang Zhongliang and the others were dumbfounded. These were red bills that gleamed in the eyes. They had never seen so much cash before.

Zhang Fan held the box, casually flipped through it, then nodded. He took out the winning lottery ticket worth 500,000 from his pocket, handed it to Xu Fei, and turned around to look at Zhang Zhongliang and Qi Fang coldly, saying, “Sorry, I spent 100 yuan this afternoon and won 500,000 yuan.”

Zhang Zhongliang was dumbfounded. He never expected that this money was actually won by Zhang Fan. 500,000 yuan was not the same as 50 yuan. Since he was scammed out of 5,000 last time, he had not touched scratch cards again. Those things only made him lose money.

“Who was it just now saying that Brother Fan’s family had no money?” Zhang Xiaoyuan raised her head, looking at Zhang Zhongliang and his wife with a smug expression, enjoying the spectacle.

Zhang Fan could not help but laugh. “This girl, she’s really adorable.”

Qi Fang’s face stiffened, and she coldly snorted, “Youth these days, no good upbringing. You won’t amount to anything when you grow up.”

“Damn it, you shameless woman. What kind of language is that? Little Fan got the 500,000 with his own ability. Go back, don’t get in our way here,” Zhang Zhongliang suddenly blushed and turned to scold Qi Fang.

Zhang Fan was dumbfounded. Zhang Yuanlin was dumbfounded. Xiao Qi was dumbfounded. Even Zhang Dongyang, who was standing aside grinning, was also dumbfounded.

F*ck, Zhang Zhongliang has gone too far.

He was just calling Zhang Fan a little b*stard, a little brat, but now he calls him Little Fan?

Qi Fang was also dumbfounded but immediately shouted angrily, “Zhang Zhongliang, you b*stard, have you grown wings? Ah, you dare to talk to me like that?”

“I’ve put up with you for so many years, it never ends. Look at your behavior. I don’t know how I was so blind back then, finding a shrew like you. Did our third son, Little Fan, offend you? Go back, wait for me to finish eating and then I’ll deal with you,” Zhang Zhongliang coldly shouted, but his eyes blinked fiercely, his mouth trembling in Zhang Fan’s direction.

Zhang Zhongliang felt extremely anxious. This stubborn woman, can’t she understand his intentions? Zhang Fan won 500,000 yuan, he should at least get some money to spend.

“Fine, if you have the guts, don’t come back.” Qi Fang grabbed Zhang Hu and angrily stormed out.

Zhang Fan looked at Zhang Zhongliang’s performance and felt like he was about to vomit. Damn it, why doesn’t he go become an actor?

Ignoring Zhang Zhongliang, Zhang Fan handed the suitcase to his father and said slowly, “Dad, stop carving wood in the future. Take this money and go travel.”

Zhang Dongyang’s face had an incredibly gratified smile. “How can that be? I’ll save this money for you to go to college and get married.”

Saying that, Zhang Dongyang walked into his own room, carrying the suitcase.

“Young man, I won’t bother you anymore. Come and visit when you have time,” Xu Fei said disdainfully, glancing at Zhang Zhongliang, and then turned and left.

“Sister-in-law, why are you standing outside in the cold? Come and eat. Let’s have a good family gathering,” Zhang Zhongliang put on a smug smile, looking like a beautiful flower.

“Darling, let’s have dinner,” Zhang Yuanlin walked over and pulled Xiao Qi back to the living room.

“Xiaoyuan, Little fan, come on, let’s eat. Don’t starve yourselves,” Zhang Zhongliang urged with a smile.

Zhang Fan ignored Zhang Zhongliang and instead picked up a piece of meat for Zhang Xiaoyuan. Looking at his father, who was smiling happily, he could not help but feel a bit heartbroken.

“Healing.”

[Please select the target.]

“Zhang Dongyang.”

[Beep, beep, beep…]

[The target has a disabled left arm. Do you want to spend 200 Spirit Points for Healing?]

Without hesitation, Zhang Fan clicked on [Confirm.]

If it weren’t for Zhang Zhongliang and his wife, he would have started treating his father long ago. 200 Spirit Points, just right, not too much or too little.

Then Zhang Fan saw the treatment plan on the system.

“Acupuncture, herbal medicine.” Zhang Fan stood up and said to Zhang Yuanlin, “Uncle, Aunt, you go ahead and eat. I have something to do, I’ll be back soon.”

“Dad, take good care of Uncle and Aunt. I’ll be back soon.”

Zhang Fan rushed out, preparing the silver needles and medicine as quickly as possible. Over these years, his father had been silent, probably because of his hand.

Hmph, Zhang Zhongliang and his wife always brought up his father’s arm. When his father gets better, let’s see if they still have anything to complain about.

At this moment, Zhang Dongyang glanced coldly at Zhang Zhongliang, lowered his head, and continued eating.

At this moment, he felt incredibly gratified. With 500,000 yuan, Zhang Fan could at least finish college.
