My mom gave me a good talking-to on the phone, and she cried her eyes out as she spoke.
I can't be the son now; I'd better play the grandson.
He kept talking nonsense and interrupting, which managed to appease his mother. Luckily, his younger sister wasn't at home studying; otherwise, he would have had to appease another one.
After hanging up the phone, Sister Wang snuggled into my arms and asked, "Are you sure it's okay to tell your mom where we are? What if the Zuo family comes looking for us?"
As I stroked her, I replied, "I just don't want to cause trouble, it's not that I'm really afraid of them."
I've already hidden myself away; if they still don't understand, they shouldn't blame me.
What do you think is going on with Du Feng today? Either he's from the Zuo family, or he's that woman outside Old Di's house.
Otherwise, I couldn't have just executed him directly; if he investigated further, it would be bad for anyone else involved.
Sister Wang didn't ask any more questions, and I just held her and dozed off for a while. Ever since what happened to Brother Hao...
I've finally settled down. For a long time now, I've either been going to the factory to check on the project's progress during the day, or taking Sister Wang out for food, drinks, and fun.
At night, he either went to the factory to use earth magic to repair the basement, or he was dragged along by the Gu family twins to keep them company.
They were right in front of him, but he kept pretending not to know her, which made them incredibly jealous.
So he would always pretend to be a masseuse at night and sneak over to me. I lived a life of debauchery for a long time.
I spent my days and nights juggling relationships with three different girls, finally getting a good month of relaxation.
I didn't stop until the factory was almost finished being renovated.
This past month or so wasn't a complete waste; through Brother Hao, I got to know several influential local figures.
They didn't talk about anything, they just kept playing and throwing money away.
I told Brother Hao about my underground casino, and asked him to find some people to support me when I open.
Life's fortunes are always balanced; after such a long period of peace, something's bound to happen eventually.
That day, I suddenly realized in my consciousness that Sister Wang had entered the mountains after running a short distance out of the city.
I sighed. It's bad luck that Sister Wang followed me; whenever someone tries to harm me, they always end up hitting Sister Wang first.
When Sister Wang comes back, I will make it up to her even more, and the better I treat her, the more she will suffer in the future.
Fortunately, Sister Wang was gentle by nature. Although she suffered, she never complained and secretly informed Xuan Jian to go and check on her.
No matter what, you can't touch the people around me, because I shouldn't even know about this.
So I could only pretend to say hello to Brother Hao, saying that I had something to do and had to leave first.
Hao didn't think much of it and just told me to be careful. He paid the bill before leaving and then took a car back.
He didn't say anything in the car, just silently kept an eye on Sister Wang.
I couldn't show it because they hadn't called me, but when I got back to the hot spring palace and they still hadn't called...
I could only suppress my anger and wait. This time, not only Ermin but even Luo Tuo could tell that something was wrong.
Everyone was curious about what had happened to me, so they urged Ermin to come and ask.
Ermin didn't want to offend me, but he was the older brother, and I always had to ask him to step up when something happened.
Ermin cautiously approached and asked, "What's wrong with Fourth Young Master today? Did something happen?"
I frowned and said, "I received news today that someone is targeting me, but I don't know who it is."
Ya Xin hasn't come back yet, I'm afraid something might have happened to her."
Ermin was also surprised when he heard this, and then realized that he hadn't seen Sister Wang for a long time.
Hearing what I said, everyone tensed up, and Ermin quickly gave instructions to his men.
Go and inquire, see if anyone knows where Sister Wang is, that's the message my subordinates relayed.
No one knows how many people are still unreachable.
