Return to the Noble Family, Eight Brothers Exclusively Dote On Me

Xiao Xi is a pitiful little girl who was abandoned. She could only survive by scavenging tr*sh and living in a shack.

One day, a distinguished and aloof CEO, with red eyes, said: “You are m...

Chapter 24 Emerging from the Manor via Earth-Penetrating Technique (2/2)

The back door of Huichuntang is usually not opened, but Wu Changquan knocked on it loudly, and finally the workers who were making medicine in the backyard opened the door.

The workers were all veterans who had worked at Huichuntang for decades, so they naturally recognized Wu Changquan as a friend of their headmaster and wondered how their headmaster's friend had gotten in through connections.

When Wu Changquan asked, his old friend was not there. He chuckled to himself, "Heaven is on my side!"

Without saying a word, he took out a list and directly ordered the workers to move the medicinal herbs out.

The workers didn't think much of it, assuming it was at the master's behest. They moved boxes of the best medicinal herbs to the open space in the backyard, in an astonishing quantity. Many of these herbs were priceless life-saving medicines on the market.

Wu Changquan then rushed straight to his old friend's study.

My old friend's nephew happened to be in the study.

He was maintaining his family's heirloom silver needles, carefully wiping each one.

Suddenly, a pair of hands appeared out of nowhere and carried the entire box away.

Surprised and doubtful, I saw that it was a friend of his uncle.

My uncle's friend, with a suspicious smile, said, "Confiscated, you're welcome!" and disappeared through the study door.

A short while later, in a special care ward in Shanghai.

Wu Changquan's friend received a notification on his phone that 500,000 yuan had been deposited into his account. The friend was wondering why Wu Changquan had transferred the money to him.

Soon after, my nephew called and I learned that while I was away, my old friend had broken into Huichuntang and taken away a large number of precious medicinal herbs, as well as our family's silver needles.

"Old man, have you taken the wrong medicine today? You think you can buy my silver needles for 500,000? And that doesn't even include the medicine." He was so angry that his liver hurt.

Deer Mountain Manor.

Xiaoxi panicked even more when she received news that Wu Changquan had obtained the medicinal herbs and silver needles.

But we can't go out during the day, and Uncle Qin and the others are all here.

I finally made it to evening when my brother called to say he had an important party to attend and wouldn't be coming back from Hengyu that night.

Xiao Xi was secretly delighted: Heaven is helping me!

After finishing her dinner, she went to the forest cabin to create the illusion that she was there, and then went back to her room to change into an inconspicuous outfit.

Then I took Xiaodou and walked along the corner of the wall for a long time. There were surveillance cameras and electric fences everywhere on the wall.

How can we get out?

Xiaoxi walked to a corner, which was a blind spot for the surveillance cameras.

Little Bean jumped up and down, exclaiming, "This is it!"

Xiaoxi discovered that Xiaodou was actually digging a hole; she had forgotten that digging is a specialty of rodents.

Don't let its small size fool you; Little Bean's claws are surprisingly strong. With a few quick "swishes," it dug a hole, and the dirt flew high into the air.

The hole grew larger and larger, and Little Bean encountered the foundation of the underground wall. Before long, it threw out bricks one after another.

Soon, a passage that Xiaoxi could climb through was dug.

"Little Bean, well done!"

Xiaodou chuckled and followed behind Xiaoxi, trying her best to restore everything to its original state. From inside the wall, you couldn't tell at all that there had once been a hole there unless you looked very closely.

Xiao Xi emerged from the ground. The same air felt different outside the wall; it was the air of freedom.

They quickly ran to the main road.

But this place is quite a distance from the city center. Should she walk here? She was at a loss again.

However, Xiaoxi was lucky; a truck carrying trees for landscaping actually passed by late at night.

Xiaoxi jumped up, grabbed the top of a big tree, and jumped onto the car.

The cold wind was blowing, but Xiaoxi's constitution was such that it only messed up her hair.

Once they got to the city center, things became much easier. Xiaoxi hailed a taxi and headed straight for Yunyang Martial Arts Hall.

Just as Zhou Daqiang was about to close the door and bolt it, Xiaoxi arrived, full of surprise, and they were about to catch up.

"Brother Daqiang, I'm sorry, Xiaoxi is busy today. Let's talk again next time."
