Chapter 347

Chapter 347

We had no way to contact Wang Xiaoxiao.

I even called Sun Yuan, but the production only had contact information for Wang Jiangguo and Lu Yihao.

To make it easier to fool around with women, Lu Yihao never mentioned his wife, Wang Xiaoxiao, to anyone.

Su Yi had a car, so I asked him to drive us to the gated community where the Wang family’s villa was located.

On the way, I called Seventh Master and asked him to contact the people from the Meishan Fa Sect again.

Seventh Master cursed at me over the phone. “What the hell is wrong with you? First you want to save him, then you don’t, and now you do again. Are you saving him or not? Are you certain? I’m embarrassed to call them again.”

I told him I was certain. This time, we definitely had to save Lu Yihao.

Not long after the call ended, we reached the Wang family’s neighborhood.

Wang Jiangguo was a powerful businessman and had to be busy with work. Wang Xiaoxiao loved Lu Yihao so deeply that now he was bedridden, she should be guarding him at home.

“Master Chen, there’s no way they’ll let us into a place like this. How do you plan to contact Wang Xiaoxiao?” Su Yi asked anxiously.

I told him not to worry and to wait in the car.

After getting out, I walked straight toward the entrance.

The security guard was sitting inside his booth. I had planned to pretend I lived there and swagger right through.

But perhaps I lacked the bearing of someone who lived in a luxury villa, because the guard stopped me immediately.

“Who are you? You don’t look like a resident.”

“I’m going to Villa 106 in Section A to see Wang Xiaoxiao.”

“Miss Wang?”

The guard looked me up and down suspiciously. “Then call her.”

I said I had not brought my phone.

“You came to see her without a phone?” The guard did not believe me.

I lowered my voice. “The truth is, I’m the pretty boy she’s keeping on the side. I’m here for a secret date. Just let me through.”

The guard was dumbfounded, probably because I did not look like anyone’s pretty boy. “Are you mentally ill?”

I grew impatient. “If you don’t believe me, call her. Hurry. She’s waiting.”

Without another word, the guard pulled a form from a drawer. It listed the residents’ contact information.

I leaned over and glanced at it, quickly finding the names Wang Xiaoxiao and Wang Jiangguo.

I immediately memorized Wang Xiaoxiao’s phone number.

“Don’t bother calling. I lied. I’m not her pretty boy.”

With that, I turned and ran.

“Are you fucking insane?”

The guard cursed and chased me for more than a hundred meters.

When he could not catch me, he called me a lunatic and returned to his post.

Once I stopped, I immediately pulled out my phone and called Wang Xiaoxiao.

She answered quickly.

“Who is this?”

“Miss Wang, it’s me, Master Chen. I visited your home yesterday.”

“You!”

Wang Xiaoxiao’s voice was unfriendly. “You left before I got back yesterday. What happened? Didn’t you say you had a way to save my husband?”

I hurriedly explained, “Miss Wang, I do have a way to save your husband. But yesterday, your father drove me away. He doesn’t want me to save him.”

Wang Xiaoxiao exclaimed in shock, “Why?”

I said, “It’s difficult to explain right now. Just tell me one thing: do you want your husband to live?”

“Of course I do!”

“All right. I’m outside your neighborhood. Prepare fifty thousand, then bring your husband out. I’ll find a way to save him.”
I mentioned money to Wang Xiaoxiao mainly because I feared she would be suspicious and refuse to bring Lu Yihao out.

The other reason was that Seventh Master had invited people from the Meishan Fa Sect. I could not ask them to help for free.

But I should not have to pay them myself, and fifty thousand was hardly a significant sum to Wang Xiaoxiao.

“Now?” Wang Xiaoxiao asked doubtfully.

“Yes, right now. Your husband’s condition is terrible. He won’t last much longer.”

I asked, “Is it inconvenient? If so, come outside first. I’ll have someone drive in.”

Wang Xiaoxiao said that would not be necessary. She would bring Lu Yihao out immediately. The house had a wheelchair.

After ending the call, I walked back to Su Yi and Anning and told them Wang Xiaoxiao would bring Lu Yihao out soon.

Su Yi looked surprised. “Master Chen, how did you get her contact information?”

“It doesn’t matter. She’ll be here soon.”

We did not wait long before I saw Wang Xiaoxiao.

She might have been a pampered heiress, but Lu Yihao was as thin as a stick now, so pushing him required little effort. She soon brought him over.

His condition seemed to have improved slightly. He held a slice of old ginger in his mouth, and Wang Xiaoxiao had bought cinnabar the previous day. Seventh Master’s method had worked.

But when Su Yi saw Lu Yihao’s current appearance, he still jumped in fright.

“Master Chen, can you really save my husband?”

Wang Xiaoxiao remained doubtful. “He can’t endure much in his present condition. If anything happens to him…”

I interrupted with a guarantee. “Don’t worry. Your family is rich and powerful. I wouldn’t offend you over fifty thousand. If I lacked confidence, I wouldn’t have asked you to bring him out. Get in the car.”

Although both Wang Xiaoxiao and Lin Yin were wealthy heiresses, they were clearly different.

Lin Yin had only pretended to be sweet and naive. Wang Xiaoxiao truly was. She believed anything I told her.

After considerable effort, we loaded Lu Yihao into the car. Anning found his present appearance revolting, so she sat in the front.

Once we were inside, I called Seventh Master and asked about his progress.

Seventh Master was dependable. He had already contacted people from the Meishan Fa Sect. He told us to drive to Huangjiagou and said he would send me the location shortly.

“Su Yi, head toward Huangjiagou.”

The drive would take about an hour.

Once we were on the road, Wang Xiaoxiao impatiently asked, “What exactly did my father say to you yesterday? Why wouldn’t he let you save my husband?”

How could I possibly answer that question? At least until Lu Yihao revealed Su Lan’s location, I could not tell her.

If I told her and she changed her mind like Wang Jiangguo, refusing to save Lu Yihao, I would be completely screwed.

“I’ll answer that after your husband recovers. His survival is the most important thing right now.”

“Take good care of him. Don’t let the ride jostle him.”

Wang Xiaoxiao truly loved him. She immediately pulled Lu Yihao into her arms without showing the slightest disgust.

I could not help sighing. Lu Yihao truly did not know how fortunate he was. He had married such a good wife, yet continued fooling around outside.

His good days were finally over.
