Chapter 839: Chapter 837: The Perilous Nature of Human Hearts (Update 34)
Wu Kun bellowed angrily, his gaze turning towards Wuu Tianwu, and spoke in a deep voice, "Tian Wu, take some people with you and grab that kid for me, as well as the girl who caused this mess, bring them both back to me."
"Yes, Father!"
Wuu Tianwu nodded.
"Father, about the Xiao Family..."
Wuu Tianwen suppressed the anger in his heart and spoke gravely.
"Hmph, what about the Xiao Family? He’s nothing but a discarded piece, no longer related to the Xiao Family. And even if he were, what of it? My grandson was killed by him. Even if Elder Xiao were to intervene, it would be useless. Whoever dares to obstruct us is an enemy of the Wu Family and must be killed!"
Wu Kun’s expression was solemn and he spoke coldly, a strong aura emanating from him.
"Understood!"
Wuu Tianwen nodded again.
"Prepare the memorial hall for Fei’s funeral. As Wu Kun’s grandson, even in death, he must be buried with honor and grandeur!"
Wu Kun said.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yifeng, after leaving Yanjing Hospital, wandered around Yanjing. Eventually, feeling a bit hungry, he walked straight into a nice-looking restaurant. Jian Yun followed closely behind him like a bodyguard.
"Let’s eat together!"
Xiao Yifeng said to Jian Yun.
"No need, Young Master, you go ahead and eat."
Jian Yun shook his head.
"There’s no need to be so formal. Although you call me Young Master, I’ve never treated you as servants. I regard you as my brothers. We cultivated together, and were taught and reprimanded by the old man. Those days are a fond memory."
Xiao Yifeng remarked with a sigh.
"Young Master, our master took us in and trained us with the sole purpose of protecting you with all our might. For you, Young Master, we would not hesitate to die a thousand deaths!"
Jian Yun said solemnly, his tone serious.
"Alright, don’t say such things, I won’t let you throw your lives away!"
Xiao Yifeng shook his head and then ordered some dishes.
Not long after starting his meal, Xiao Yifeng saw several figures enter the place, flanked by bodyguards in black suits and sunglasses—two women and a man.
The man, around fifty-plus years old, had a somewhat balding head and was dressed finely. His beady eyes were squinting. The two women, one in a suit, looked to be in her thirties, and the other, a twenty-something young woman, wore a mask and sunglasses.
With a T-shirt, a pair of slim-fit jeans, and the face mostly covered, the young woman still exuded an air of great beauty from her poise and figure.
"It’s her!"
Xiao Yifeng recognized the young woman at a glance, the famous singer Zhou Xinyi he had encountered at Tianhai University.
Back then, he had twice saved her during a school ceremony and a concert. He had not expected to see her here today.
However, Zhou Xinyi did not recognize Xiao Yifeng. Her group quickly entered one of the restaurant’s private rooms.
Out of curiosity, Xiao Yifeng activated his x-ray vision and scanned the room.
Through their conversation, Xiao Yifeng learned that the fifty-something balding man was a director who had been brought by Zhou Xinyi’s agent to discuss a movie role.
Having seen enough, Xiao Yifeng was about to retract his x-ray vision, but just at that moment, Zhou Xinyi’s agent and the director excused themselves to use the bathroom and left the room.
The two left the room and started a conversation.
"Is everything prepared?"
The agent asked the director.
"Rest assured, everything’s ready—OK. The room, the camera, the drugs, it’s all sorted."
The director said with an excited tone.
"Looks like you got off easy this time, so you can enjoy the flawless body of a chaste pop star!"
The agent said indifferently and then spat out, "Go prepare the drugged drink, and after she passes out, take her straight to the hotel."
"Okay!"
The director nodded and left the room, while Zhou Xinyi’s agent took out a mobile phone and dialed a number.
"Hello, Ms. Zhou, everything is arranged, what do you think... okay!"
The agent spoke briefly on the phone and then returned to the private room.
Xiao Yifeng’s eyes sparkled with light, revealing a look of astonishment, having never expected such an event to occur.
From the two’s conversation, it wasn’t hard to guess that the agent was setting up Zhou Xinyi, planning to drug and incapacitate her so she could be taken advantage of by the director and even have it filmed—all orchestrated by someone else’s orders.
Xiao Yifeng also couldn’t help but lament, "Human hearts can truly be so evil." He feared that Zhou Xinyi was still naïvely unaware that she was about to fall into a predator’s grasp, about to start living a nightmare.
"Lucky you ran into such a good person like me!"
Xiao Yifeng sighed.
In the private room, Zhou Xinyi and her agent Liu Juan were chatting.
"Sister Liu, where is this director from? I’ve never heard of him."
Zhou Xinyi spoke.
"This director just returned from studying abroad. He’s incredibly skilled, and the movie he’s going to direct is a big-budget production. I went through a lot of trouble to get in touch with him and arrange an important role for you. You must perform well later, and don’t refuse his toast during dinner, you know?"
Liu Juan said.
"Got it, Sister Liu!"
Zhou Xinyi nodded.
At that moment, the director walked in, holding a bottle of wine.
"Come, try this—it’s the best wine in the restaurant. Ms. Zhou, please have a taste."
The director poured Zhou Xinyi a glass of wine and placed it in front of her.
"Thank you!"
Zhou Xinyi said as she held the wine, glanced at Liu Juan, and was about to drink it.
Click!
Suddenly, the door to the private room burst open, and the figure of Xiao Yifeng walked in.
Seeing Xiao Yifeng’s sudden appearance, Zhou Xinyi, who was about to drink the wine, stopped and turned to look, her eyes flashing with a mix of surprise and excitement.
"Mr. Xiao!"
Zhou Xinyi set down the glass and called out directly to Xiao Yifeng.
"Who are you? Who let you in? Someone come!"
The bald director looked at Xiao Yifeng with annoyance and shouted out loud.
"Stop calling; your bodyguards are all asleep right now."
Xiao Yifeng walked in.
"What are you doing here?"
Liu Juan’s gaze fixed on Xiao Yifeng, a flicker of something unusual in her eyes.
"Miss agent, I suggest you drink this glass of wine."
Xiao Yifeng looked at Liu Juan with a smile, while her face turned pale.
"What nonsense are you talking about here? We are discussing business. Please, Mr. Xiao, don’t disturb us."
Liu Juan looked at Xiao Yifeng and spoke sternly.
