Chapter 176: Did they even take pictures?



"Hmm... that should be about right."

Sitting in Ning Zheyuan's car, Xia Che opened his phone and looked at the photos with satisfaction.

Several thugs with brightly colored hair knelt obediently on the ground, looking as if they had lost their parents.

His expression was so grief-stricken, as if he had just lost a loved one.

But that's exactly the effect Xia Che wanted.

The kneeling posture, the handwritten apology letter, and the bloody handprint are sufficient punishments.

It seems that Jiang Yu's second wish should be fulfilled.

"Wanted them to apologize...? Now, that wish has been fulfilled."

Xia Che lay comfortably in the passenger seat, watching the buildings rushing past the car window, and breathed a sigh of relief, feeling extremely happy.

I recall the girl sitting in the bathtub, her eyes tired and unfocused, and the tear in her eyes.

Xia Che felt that he had finally not disappointed the other party.

He tapped the chat interface with Jiang Yu, selected the photos of the thugs kneeling and the apology letter, and hovered his finger over the send button.

After thinking for a moment, Xia Che moved his fingers away.

Turn off your phone.

"Let's wait until we meet at school tomorrow to tell her the good news."

Xia Che looked out the window, the lights outside the car making his eyes flicker.

This little girl...

You should have noticed the abnormality in your legs by now, as well as the medicine you left behind that could be used to treat your heart disease. If it were you, you would be very happy now, right?

Um……

Compared to the incredible joy of having both legs fully recovered, getting a few thugs to apologize is at best a minor surprise.

Let's talk about it tomorrow.

Xia Che wasn't in a hurry.

"Let's go straight home, it's too late and I'm a bit tired."

Xia Che glanced at Ning Zheyuan, who was focused on driving, and said calmly.

"Young Master, shouldn't we go get it bandaged first?"

Ning Zheyuan was still a little worried. Although Xia Che's head was no longer bleeding, there was still a bloody cut. Of course, he would be fine with such a minor injury on himself and just put on a band-aid. But how could someone who was in the underworld not get injured?

But the injured person was his young master, whom he cared about the most, so Ning Zheyuan could not take it lightly.

“You’re an old hand at this, don’t you know whether my injury is a big deal or not? I’m not a little girl anymore…”

Xia Che rolled his eyes in annoyance. Seeing Ning Zheyuan give an awkward smile, he understood that the other party was concerned about him. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "How is the situation at Qingshan Real Estate? Is it going smoothly?"

"Yes, the Li family father and son have almost taken the bait. The development of that piece of land in Weiyang is progressing smoothly, and we will see profits in a while."

When the topic turned to business, Ning Zheyuan smiled slightly, "The Li family really gave us a lot of money this time. Once we've squeezed every last drop of value out of this land, my mission will be complete, and it will be enough to support the master's business for five years."

"By the way, young master, about that matter concerning the eldest daughter of the Tang family..."

"No, no, no, aren't we talking about serious business? Let's not talk about this!"

Ning Zheyuan had barely opened his mouth when Xia Che's face turned pale instantly. He had remained calm while being beaten and even when he was bleeding, but he panicked when his fiancée was mentioned.

Holy crap!

How could he forget about Tang Yanyan?

Xia Che's forehead began to bead with cold sweat.

broken……

Since his perspective changed and he stopped treating the world of comics as a fictional world, he forgot about his fiancée.

Previously, I thought that I could go back after completing the mission, so I treated everything as a game and naturally didn't take Tang Yanyan's matter to heart, thinking that I could just cancel the engagement later.

But now...

How can I cancel?

Should I tear up my engagement with Tang Yanyan in front of the Tang family?

Xia Che was really afraid that Tang Yanyan would make a three-year agreement with him in person...

Moreover, according to his memory, Tang Yanyan was a real chubby girl. Why would he marry a tank?

This is too much to ask of people...

“Sigh, young master, you’re not getting any younger. Miss Tang has always been deeply in love with you, and she’s about to return to China. You can’t be an irresponsible man.”

Ning Zheyuan was an old and shrewd man. Seeing Xia Che's face covered in sweat, he knew exactly what the other man was thinking.

He couldn't help but sigh, his tone becoming stern.

Miss Tang doesn't mind the decline of the Xia family and is about to return to China to marry you, but you want to run away?

That's so tasteless!

Very few daughters of wealthy families have the freedom to choose their romantic partners.

Ning Zheyuan knew that the scions of these aristocratic families always acted in a way that benefited the family, and very few could go against the wishes of their families.

In the past, when the Xia family was at its peak, Tang Yanyan married Xia Che, and the Tang family had no objections.

But what about now?

With the Xia family in such a state of decline, Ning Zheyuan didn't believe that the other party would obediently abide by the previous marriage agreement.

However, Tang Yanyan still decided to return to China and stated that she wanted to marry Xia Che.

This is commendable.

For someone from a prominent family to go to such lengths for their young master, Ning Zheyuan felt it was truly remarkable.

So, young master, you must never be a coward!

"What do you mean, 'not young anymore'... What are you talking about? I'm only eighteen!"

Xia Che was speechless.

Ning Zheyuan, you're being too talkative!

"Whether someone is a man or not has nothing to do with age. What matters is whether they have a sense of responsibility. Young master, although Miss Tang was a bit chubby before, she has successfully lost weight and is now a stunning beauty. So many people have tried to woo her but failed, yet she has declared that she wants to marry you. You can't be greedy."

Ning Zheyuan ignored Xia Che's attempt to change the subject and said seriously.

"...Let's talk about it later."

Xia Che quietly shifted his gaze, pretending to admire the scenery, but in reality, he couldn't hide his guilty conscience.

Seeing this, Ning Zheyuan went on and on, but when he saw that the young master still ignored him, he reluctantly gave up and continued to concentrate on driving. In fact, he was already planning in his mind how to persuade the young master to listen to him.

...

The Li family has a very special guest today.

The courtyard was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and one could feel the festive atmosphere as soon as one entered.

A white BMW drove in. Even though the Li family had rules that vehicles were not allowed to enter the compound, this car still drove in brazenly. Moreover, after the Li family's servants saw the license plate number, none of them dared to stop it. They pretended not to see it.

This is simply because it belongs to Li Junyang, the young master of the Li family.

—When the head of the family’s own son returns home, who would dare to stop him?

Where is he? Where is he?

Before the driver had even stopped the car, Li Junyang rushed out of the car and grabbed a servant who came to greet him, asking repeatedly, "Where is Mr. Xing?"

"Young Master, Mr. Xing is currently enjoying flowers and tea with the Master in the backyard."

The maid was startled by Li Junyang's urgency, but still obediently answered.

"Take me there! Wait... never mind, I'll go by myself."

Li Junyang licked his dry lips, feeling a surge of excitement.
