Although Shen Lang didn't use his full strength, his punch instantly sent the burly Lao Gou flying three meters away. He crashed heavily against the wall, spitting out five or six teeth along with a mouthful of blood.
"This..."
Seeing this, Yu Dongyang was dumbfounded.
He had just been sent flying and severely injured by a single punch, and this boy, what kind of monster was he?
Yu Dongyang finally understood why he always felt like he was being pricked by thorns and chilled to the bone when facing Shen Lang.
This kid was too terrifying.
Yu Fei and Yu Xiao were equally shocked.
Especially Yu Xiao. Although she had witnessed Shen Lang's terrifying combat power the first time they met, seeing him act again, she realized she had severely underestimated him.
"Kid... you... you dare to hit me?"
Lao Gou's vision went black from the punch. After a long while, he finally regained consciousness. He stared at Shen Lang, disbelief etched on his face, and spoke.
However, before he could finish speaking, Shen Lang charged again.
Reaching Lao Gou, Shen Lang unleashed a kick.
The speed of this kick was indescribable.
Lao Gou wanted to dodge, but he couldn't. He was hit squarely in the abdomen by Shen Lang's kick.
Then, Lao Gou felt as if his internal organs were being twisted into a knot. The intense pain rendered him unable to even scream.
Although Lao Gou wasn't screaming in agony, seeing his contorted face and the sweat beading on his forehead, Yu Dongyang and Yu Xiao could feel the excruciating pain.
"You are addicted to gambling, and when you lost money, you even mortgaged your own daughters to cover your debts. And now, you've even hit your disabled daughter."
"I've met many scumbags, but I've never encountered someone as unscrupulous as you."
"People like you don't deserve to be fathers, you don't even deserve to be human."
Shen Lang stepped on Lao Gou's forehead, his gaze like an icy blade. "Some say that even an honest official can't resolve family disputes, but I'm not an official, so I will interfere."
"From today onwards, Yu Xiao and Yu Fei will be under my care. If you dare to harm either of them again, next time, I will crush your skull."
"You..."
Feeling the killing intent in Shen Lang's tone, Lao Gou's face turned pale with fear, but he still spoke defiantly, "Kid, I can understand why you're interested in Yu Xiao, she is quite beautiful, but Yu Fei is a cripple, a nobody. Is there any need for you to protect her like this?"
"A cripple?"
"A nobody?"
Hearing Lao Gou's words, Yu Fei lowered her head.
No one could see her expression clearly, but Shen Lang knew that at this moment, Yu Fei's face must be filled with despair, a despair as bleak as ash.
However, Shen Lang's next words not only made Yu Fei raise her head again but also instantly filled her face with hope.
Shen Lang looked at Lao Gou with contempt and sneered, "Before today, she might have been a cripple and a nobody in the eyes of others, but from today onwards, she is no longer one."
"Do you know why?"
Shen Lang's face was filled with confidence. "Because I will cure her, and make her as normal as anyone else."
"What?"
Hearing this, everyone present was stunned.
"Brother Shen, are you serious?"
Yu Xiao couldn't hide her joy and asked.
"Of course, it's true. Trust me."
Shen Lang said, "Yu Fei suffered from bone marrow disease as a child and missed the best treatment window, leading to bone marrow degeneration and spinal nerve necrosis. Even the world's best surgeons couldn't cure her."
"But I can."
Shen Lang said with confident composure, "As long as I act, Yu Fei will be able to stand up like a normal person."
"However, I have three conditions for treating patients."
"First, I don't treat the arrogant and overbearing."
"Second, I don't treat those who value wealth over life."
"Third, I don't treat patients and their families who lack faith in the doctor."
He looked at Yu Xiao and Yu Fei and asked, "Are you... willing to believe me?"
Although Yu Xiao had only known Shen Lang for a few hours, she already knew what kind of person he was.
She believed that if there was one man in this world who could be trusted, it would be Shen Lang.
Therefore, upon hearing Shen Lang's words, Yu Xiao didn't hesitate and immediately replied, "Brother Shen, I believe you."
"Brother Shen, I believe you too."
As Yu Xiao finished speaking, Yu Fei's voice followed.
Yu Fei believed that someone who rushed into a burning building to save her would never lie to her.
"Idiot—"
Seeing Yu Xiao and Yu Fei believe Shen Lang, Lao Gou sneered and cursed.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Lao Gou regretted it.
Because Shen Lang's gaze was coldly fixed on him, sending shivers down his spine.
"Kid... you... don't do anything rash."
Lao Gou was already terrified of Shen Lang. Seeing Shen Lang's gaze, he immediately cowered, covering his head and surrendering.
"Get out—"
Shen Lang didn't waste any words. He grabbed Lao Gou's collar, lifted him up, and threw him out the door.
After being thrown to the doorstep, Lao Gou cursed a few more times, and fearing that Shen Lang would catch him, he quickly fled.
"He's gone, let's go too."
After Lao Gou left, Shen Lang walked to Yu Fei, squatted down, picked her up, and said to Yu Xiao.
"Brother Shen, where are we going?"
Yu Xiao asked curiously.
"To your new home."
Shen Lang smiled and said.
After speaking, Shen Lang looked at Yu Dongyang, who stood nearby with a frightened expression, and said, "Although Yu Xiao and the others were injured, I know you tried your best to stop him, so I don't blame you."
With that, Shen Lang, carrying Yu Fei, walked out of the house.
Seeing this, Yu Xiao quickly followed.
"This kid..."
Looking at Shen Lang's retreating back, Yu Dongyang shook his head.
This kid's mind was too complex; one could not see through him at all.
"Yu Xiao, Yu Fei, we're here. This is your new home from now on."
Half an hour later, Shen Lang, carrying Yu Fei, got out of a ride-sharing car and said to Yu Xiao beside him.
"This..."
Yu Xiao looked at the imposing words "Imperial Villa Garden" before her, her face filled with disbelief. "Brother Shen, this is the most expensive villa complex in Nanling. The villas here cost fifty thousand per square meter. You're not joking, are you?"
"Of course not—"
Shen Lang took out a door card and keys from his pocket and handed them to Yu Xiao. "The gate is right in front of you. If you don't believe me, try swiping the card yourself."
"I..."
Yu Xiao cautiously took the door card and then, with uncertain steps, approached the gate and lightly swiped the card at the sensor.
But what Yu Xiao didn't expect was that with a light swipe, the gate opened directly.
"This..."
Seeing this, Yu Xiao looked at Shen Lang, a little flustered.
"Don't be so surprised. I said this is your new home from now on."
Shen Lang looked at Yu Xiao, smiled gently, and then walked directly through the gate.
Five minutes later, Shen Lang, carrying Yu Fei, found Villa No. 29 and said to Yu Xiao, "Open the door."
"Okay..."
This time, Yu Xiao didn't hesitate much. She strode forward, took the key, and inserted it into the lock.
However, just as Yu Xiao was about to turn the key, a roar startled her, and she instinctively let go of the key.
"Who are you people, and why are you here?"
