Seeing that the atmosphere had turned tense, Lin Zhensheng quickly offered an explanation:
"Doctor Ma, please don't misunderstand. Our third son was injured after stepping into one of Lin Moyang's traps, and he already agreed to pay for the damages."
"We just wanted to keep him here so we could settle the accounts clearly."
Upon hearing this, Ma Daguang looked up at Lin Moyang, bewildered, and muttered under his breath, "That’s strange. If he stepped into the trap himself, why would there be compensation?"
The moment those words were spoken, the three members of the Lin Zhensheng family felt a wave of embarrassment wash over them.
Helpless, Lin Zhensheng forced a smile: "We’ll just have to trouble you, Doctor Ma, to give our third son a thorough check-up. We’d be incredibly grateful."
Liu Huiru and Lin Changsheng, standing nearby, chimed in with matching expressions of concern.
