Chapter 224 Losing Both Wife and Army
Who are you? What do you want?
Instinct compelled him to get up and grab Gu Yunxi's arm.
"Don't be afraid, sister. I'm the host from the live stream. I just rushed over to check on the child's health."
"So you're a master!"
The woman finally breathed a sigh of relief. "I'm so sorry, I just fell asleep. Thank you for coming to see my child so late."
Gu Yunxi glanced at the woman. "Are you sick? Are you feeling unwell?"
"Little sister, you have such good eyesight, just looking at me makes me sick."
"Yes, your illness can be cured. Let's come and see the child first. We can talk about your matter after we're done with our work."
It's really interesting. No matter which city you go to, there are always people trying to borrow your luck. Sometimes, people are scarier than ghosts.
Gu Yunxi touched the child's forehead and took out a calming talisman from her ring.
He placed it in the child's arms, saying, "Keep this talisman on the child and don't remove it or wet it during this time. Her body will gradually recover."
He took out another talisman, found a clean cup, poured in some warm water, and the talisman dissolved, but the water remained clear.
"Give this water to the child. She'll wake up soon, and we can discharge her when it's light."
You've had a tough life too. If I'm not mistaken, tomorrow should be the child's grandmother's 60th birthday.
"This little beauty is amazing! How do you know everything?"
Gu Yunxi smiled but didn't say anything. "I will also attend the child's grandmother's birthday banquet tomorrow. I will give you a surprise then. You should believe that good people will be blessed."
Gu Yunxi told her to get some rest and then left the hospital.
I was planning to go back and take a look. It was still early, so I decided to browse the night market.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived at the hospital entrance, I heard a siren.
The car window rolled down, revealing Jiang Xubai's face.
"Get in the car, Yunxi. I'm also heading back to Jiangcheng. Let's grab a late-night snack together and keep each other company on the way."
Gu Yunxi originally didn't want to pay attention to him, but seeing the scheming look in the man's eyes, she wanted to see what this man was up to.
Going back to Jiangcheng is a piece of cake for me; I can get back in no time. Why would I need to take his car? That's a complete joke.
"OK!"
Gu Yunxi got into the car, and Jiang Xubai drove the car out of the county town. Finally, they saw a place that looked like a bar and was decorated in a rather luxurious style.
"arrive!"
After getting off the bus, the two found a seat by the window.
Gu Yunxi looked at the people in this place and revealed a meaningful smile.
Dancing on a gravesite would be absolutely thrilling.
"Come on, Yunxi, I've heard that this mountain spring beverage is really famous. I had it a couple of days ago, and it was quite delicious."
Gu Yunxi picked it up and smelled it. "It is indeed sweet, but unfortunately I'm not very thirsty, so I won't drink it."
"How will we know if it's sweet if we don't taste it? I'm afraid it might be poisonous!"
Jiang Xubai picked up the drink and drank it all in one gulp. "It's really delicious."
"You eat, and we'll go back after you finish. I'm not too hungry."
Jiang Xubai snorted coldly. This woman was quite wary. No matter what, he had to make her drink something. What kind of so-called internet celebrity was she? She had become a despised slut online, and now she had nowhere to cry.
So what if you have amazing skills? There are plenty of talented people in this world.
Strangely enough, after Wang Cuicui gave the child the water, the child slowly woke up a few minutes later.
After coughing a few times, her mental state improved noticeably.
"Mom, I think I'm a little hungry." The child perked up and even playfully stuck out his tongue.
"Okay, Mom will find you some fruit to eat. We'll be discharged from the hospital tomorrow when it's light, just in time for your grandma's birthday party."
That woman is amazing. Her husband said she's a master of metaphysics, but she's more than that; she's Xiaohua's savior.
The fact that their savior was attending their birthday banquet was a blessing the Wu family could never have earned in several lifetimes.
"Mom, I feel like I can be discharged from the hospital now. I'm full of energy and can't wait to prepare a birthday present for Grandma."
Wang Cuicui touched the child's forehead, "Your recovery is the best gift. Mom will just buy a cake!"
...
Seeing the woman in front of him fall down, Jiang Xubai revealed a cold smile, "So, Miss Gu is nothing special."
Gu Yunxi was helped upstairs by two women to her accommodation.
As if on cue, Jiang Xubai and the waiter cut off the surveillance cameras on the fifth floor and left separately.
Even though Gu Yunxi was lying in bed with her eyes closed, she could still see Jiang Xubai's every move.
"Knock knock knock!"
There was a knock on the door, and Jiang Xubai opened it. Two burly men walked in.
"How is it? This stuff is pretty good, hasn't been touched."
The burly man picked his nose. "She does look quite innocent. Three million is the most I can offer. If you'd like, let's make the deal now."
"Three million? She's a big internet celebrity with nearly ten million followers. Three million, isn't that a bit low? If it's really not possible, I'll play a couple of rounds first, and then you can take her away."
One of the burly men grabbed him by the collar and said, "Are you questioning Brother Kun's abilities? You dare to mess with the people he's set his sights on? Aren't you afraid of damaging your 'second brother'?"
"Just kidding, just kidding, let's leave it at that."
He took out his phone, accessed his bank card information, and the other party began transferring the money. Unexpectedly, he didn't receive the money, but Gu Yunxi's phone rang instead.
She opened her eyes, sat on the bed, and saw three million yuan deposited into her bank account. "Thanks!"
"You...you faked fainting?"
Gu Yunxi waved her phone. "Otherwise, how could I earn some extra money?"
"Quick, you two grab her! This woman is cunning; if she escapes, we'll lose both our money and our possessions."
Jiang Xubai didn't care whether she lived or died; he only wanted money. He didn't know what insidious means this woman had used to transfer the money to her card.
That's three million! Without the Jiang family as a backer, we'll have to find our own way to make money.
The two rushed to the bedside, only to find that Gu Yunxi had disappeared.
"Have fun, you three."
This hotel is built on top of a grave; with those female ghosts around, they must be having an unforgettable night.
The next day, Gu Yunxi appeared at the entrance of Wujia Village on time, calculating that the mother and daughter should have arrived by then.
Sure enough, after wandering around for a while, the three of them slowly walked over.
The woman kept looking around, afraid of missing the master.
"Master Gu... I didn't expect you to arrive so early." Wu Liang saw Gu Yunxi's back and quickly went up to greet her.
Gu Yunxi handed a gift box to the little girl, saying, "Little Flower, this is for you. I hope you will grow up safely and happily in the days to come."
"Thank you, sister. I think I saw you last night, maybe it was in a dream."
Gu Yunxi touched her forehead. "Let's go. What you're saying is all a dream. Now, your sister will take you to see a good show!"
Watching the show, a glint of gold flashed in the girl's eyes; nothing was more fun than watching a spectacle!
A ten-year-old child is curious about everything.
As the group entered the village, they heard lively noises even before reaching the Wu family's door.
