Upon hearing the words of the Qiao family head, Sakata Ichiro's heart sank...
He also knew that the head of the Qiao family was in dire straits himself, so how could he possibly have the resources to help him?
Moreover, when the steward returns soon, Patriarch Qiao will know that there is something wrong with the longevity grass. At that time, it would be good if he were not killed, let alone helped him.
"What? You want to break your promise? It seems your national character is truly flawed; all these years in China haven't taught you to be trustworthy..."
Wang Wei said disdainfully, leaving Sakata Ichiro speechless, because he genuinely wanted to back out. After all, for someone of his status, barking like a dog and crawling around the crowd ten times was more unacceptable than being killed…
Do you think you have the right to refuse?
Wang Wei's words sounded casual, but the underlying threat made Sakata Ichiro feel bitter inside, knowing that he was doomed to lose face today...
He looked at Hongren and said pleadingly.
"Master Hongren, we are both monks, could you please speak on my behalf...?"
Of those present, only Hongren had ever blocked Wang Wei's attack. At this moment, only Hongren and Lu Zhengguo were qualified to persuade Wang Wei, but Lu Zhengguo certainly wouldn't help him. The only one who could help him was Hongren, who was also a monk...
"Amitabha Buddha, the Buddha said: Faith!"
Hongren clasped his hands together, and without any emotion, uttered these words…
As a fellow monk, Sakata Ichiro naturally understood the meaning behind Hongren's words: he was to keep his promise...
The Buddha said: All beings are equal!
Upon hearing Hongren's words, Sakata Ichiro's eyes finally calmed down. Since all beings are equal, what difference does it make whether one is a human or a beast?
Finally, he lay on the ground, enduring the humiliation, crawling while barking like a dog…
Wang Wei, of course, wouldn't miss such a good show, and recorded it all on his phone. When Sakata Ichiro stood up, he smiled and said...
"I wonder what the people of Japan would think if they saw their own high monk in such a state?"
"you…"
Even with his excellent self-control, Sakata Ichiro was completely taken aback by this remark; it was just going further and further down the path of humiliating him…
"Alright... just kidding. How could I possibly leak Sakata Hoshi's video so easily..."
Hearing Wang Wei say this, Sakata Ichiro breathed a sigh of relief. They were all people of status; since he'd said that, Wang Wei certainly wouldn't do something so despicable…
But Wang Wei then said...
"But your identity is not just that of a monk. I think Master Sakata will not forget the promise made under the cherry blossoms..."
Sakata Ichiro's heart, which had just settled down, immediately tightened again. Cherry blossoms are the national flower of Japan, and he received his mission under cherry blossoms before setting off for China...
If anyone else had said that, he would have taken it as a joke, but since it came from someone who had just performed a miracle, he had to think about it seriously…
"This humble monk doesn't quite understand what you're saying..."
Sakata Ichiro could only feign ignorance and reply…
"It's alright, I believe you understand. I've heard that houses in the Shanhe Villa District are very difficult to buy. I wonder how Master Sakata managed to buy one?"
Hearing Wang Wei's words, which sounded like outright robbery, Sakata Ichiro's lips twitched, but he still had to pretend to be calm and say...
"It's just an external possession. Since you like it, I'll give it to you..."
"Since it's a kind invitation from Master Sakata, I'll accept it without hesitation. I hope the paperwork can be sent to me as soon as possible; living at the school is uncomfortable..."
That was obviously an excuse; how could I possibly feel uncomfortable after living at school for so long…
"Rest assured, benefactor..."
Everyone was utterly shocked to see that Sakata not only dutifully fulfilled his bet but also obediently handed over the Shanhe Villa District…
That's a villa worth hundreds of millions, given away so easily. Anyone would feel the pinch. Even though Sakata Ichiro is a monk, he doesn't treat money like dirt. Yet he's willing to give it away. So everyone is wondering what Wang Wei's words mean. How could he possibly manipulate Sakata Ichiro?
However, Wang Wei didn't have time to explain anything to them; he turned around and walked out with Lu Zhengguo...
Wang Wei didn't expose Sakata Ichiro, because an exposed spy is no longer a spy; they could become an accomplice, and if used properly, could be of great help. Therefore, he planned to keep Sakata Ichiro around and leave this problem to Gu Boshan to deal with...
"Xiaowei, what did you mean by what you just said to Sakata Ichiro? Why was he willing to give you his villa?"
Lu Zhengguo looked at Wang Wei curiously and asked…
"Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed..."
Wang Wei replied with an inscrutable attitude…
This made Lu Zhengguo's lips twitch; he wanted to give him a good beating for daring to speak to his elders like that...
After leaving the Qiao family, Wang Wei parted ways with Lu Zhengguo and headed towards the school with Hu Li, whom he had rescued…
Now Hu Li is following him with eight people, and they can't be allowed to stay in hotels forever, which is why he extorted a house from Sakata Ichiro...
Anyway, he bought it with the money he earned as a spy, so why not take it?
"Brother Wang Wei, thank you so much this time. I haven't been helpful at all, and I've only caused you trouble..."
Hu Li said somewhat embarrassedly…
"Don't worry about these details. You'll need to keep an eye on my godfather and his sister's safety from now on..."
Wang Wei said nonchalantly, it was just a small favor anyway, but his words touched Hu Li deeply, as if something was growing wildly in his heart...
He glanced at Hu Li casually and was almost startled. Hu Li's loyalty had just been 10%, and now it had skyrocketed to 80%...
Wang Wei had no idea what he had done to cause such a big change in Hu Li. He couldn't help but wonder if his personal charisma was so powerful that people would bow down in worship.
While this loyalty isn't 100%, with the power he currently possesses, it wouldn't be difficult to get Hu Li to reach 100% loyalty given enough time...
Lost in thought, Lin Feng and the others returned to the hotel. They were already anxiously waiting downstairs. Seeing Hu Li return safely, a look of relief appeared on their faces. It was clear that these eight people had a very good relationship with Hu Li; otherwise, he wouldn't have dragged them along…
He glanced at the group and found that Lin Feng had the highest loyalty to him, at 60%, while the others were only between 30% and 50%...
"Why don't you all get together? I'll pay for everything..."
"Brother Wei is so generous... haha..."
Seeing everyone so happy, Wang Wei's mood improved as well...
After leaving, he took out his phone and called his milk tea girl, Wang Yinchen…
As soon as the call connected, strange panting sounds came from the other end of the line, which startled Wang Wei. His first thought was, "Am I being cuckolded?"
