Qiu Yiren was startled and quickly ended the video call, but the blush on her face wouldn't go away.
Her heart was pounding, she was so nervous, she just hoped that Cheng Yuquan hadn't found out, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Why did you come out? It's cold outside, it's not good for your wound." Qiu Yiren forced herself to calm down and said in a relaxed manner.
"I was thirsty, and I called you twice, but you didn't answer me." Cheng Yuquan didn't take it too seriously, but he felt that Qiu Yiren was a little strange.
"She was probably in the kitchen. I'll go get you some water." Qiu Yiren said, running to the kitchen to get some water.
She opened the thermos and found that the water inside had frozen, so she had to reheat it before she could drink it. What a hassle.
Qiu Yiren couldn't help but recall the scene of Ji Hao eating lavish meals and drinking red wine. That was real life. How wonderful it would be to live in his safe house.
Sigh.
Qiu Yiren shook her head. She already had a husband, how could she be thinking about other men? Really.
Just then, Cheng Yuquan's phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Ji Hao messaging him privately, which made him frown.
What is this guy doing?
Ji Hao: "Brother Yuquan, how are you feeling? Are you feeling better?"
Cheng Yuquan almost cursed out loud, angrily replying, "You little beast, stop pretending in front of me. You better pray you don't fall into my hands, or I'll crush your bones."
Ji Hao scoffed and replied, "You should think more about the wound on your left arm. Without medicine, I don't need to tell you the consequences."
Cheng Yuquan: "Even if I die, I won't let you get away with this."
Ji Hao took out the medicine, took a picture of it, and sent it to Cheng Yuquan.
Ji Hao: "I'm the only one who can save you now. If you're willing, you can make a deal with Sister Qiu. As long as you fulfill my wish, I will definitely hand over the medicine obediently."
Cheng Yuquan was so angry he almost smashed his phone, and replied, "You little beast, you're dreaming."
Ji Hao: "Isn't this a very worthwhile deal? You can borrow it to play with, and you won't lose anything. Brother Yuquan, this is the apocalypse, there are no laws or morals. As long as you keep your life, with your strength, what woman can't you get? Besides, if you lose your life, how will you take revenge on me?"
Cheng Yuquan: "Damn it!"
After the initial impulse subsided, Cheng Yuquan thought about it carefully and realized that Ji Hao's words actually made a lot of sense.
There are quite a few beautiful women in the neighborhood, at least five of whom are on par with Qiu Yiren. With his strength, he could easily win over all of them.
Most importantly, he wanted revenge, to take revenge on Ji Hao severely, and he absolutely could not let the other party get away with it. But the prerequisite was that he needed medicine. His left arm injury was very serious, and without medicine, he could not maintain his health, so how could he fulfill his wish?
While Cheng Yuquan was struggling with his decision, Ji Hao sent him some more pictures.
As can be seen from the picture, inside Ji Hao's safe house, the fireplace is burning brightly, and he is wearing only a short-sleeved shirt, sitting in a chair, enjoying a meal.
The table was covered with food: seafood, pizza, hamburgers, steak, red wine...
Beside Ji Hao was a voluptuous, stunningly beautiful woman. Although only her back was visible, her devilish figure was no less impressive than Qiu Yiren's.
In an instant, Cheng Yuquan's anger surged. He was starving and freezing, and his arm was injured, while Cheng Yuquan was enjoying food and women in a safe house. This world is just too damn messed up.
Is there any fairness left?
Cheng Yuquan gritted his teeth in hatred and made up his mind that no matter the cost, he must take Ji Hao's safe house.
After careful consideration, he came up with an idea.
Ji Hao wanted his woman, so he decided to turn the tables and kill the little beast.
Besides, even if the plan fails, we can still get the drugs, so it's a sure-fire way to make a profit.
Cheng Yuquan exited the private chat and said to Qiu Yiren beside him, "Wife, I've come up with an idea to deal with that little beast. As long as you cooperate a little, I'll be saved."
Qiu Yiren said happily, "What's the solution? Tell me quickly."
Cheng Yuquan said, "Isn't that beast lusting after your beauty? You hide the fruit knife in your clothes, pretend to go to his house to make a deal, and once inside, immediately pull out the fruit knife and stab him to death. That way, everything in the safe house will be ours."
"But... what if we fail?" Qiu Yiren asked anxiously.
“It doesn’t matter if we fail, we can just make a deal with him,” Cheng Yuquan said. “Just close your eyes, treat him as me, and that’s it.”
Qiu Yiren was stunned!
I never expected my husband to say something like that.
Cheng Yuquan continued, "I think you would be very happy about something like this where you can enjoy yourself, get medicine, and even take over safe houses and food, right?"
"Cheng Yuquan, are you even a man? How could you make me do something like this? Don't you feel guilty?" Qiu Yiren glared at Cheng Yuquan, her eyes red with anger.
"Wife, don't get agitated," Cheng Yuquan advised. "There's no other way. Think about it carefully. If my wound doesn't heal and gets infected, you'll not only have to take care of me, but you'll also have to go out and collect food. Can you handle that kind of pressure?"
"I..." Qiu Yiren was speechless for a moment.
Cheng Yuquan said, "This is not the worst. If I die, who will protect you? There are plenty of men in the neighborhood who covet your beauty. At that time, you will not only be giving yourself to that little beast Ji Hao, but they will use every means to torture you and make you wish you were dead."
