Chapter 220: Chapter 220: Zhao Xinlian Gets Jealous, Third Update
"How, how could this happen?" Shi Hongyang turned around and looked at those people, becoming even more perplexed, wondering if he was experiencing hallucinations.
Even because of this, he resolutely used a meat cleaver to lightly slash his arm, and blood immediately flowed onto the ground like a thread.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Xinlian was absolutely certain that this guy had gone mad.
But what shocked and amazed her even more was that Chen Wei had managed to cure everyone of the deadly poison with just a small sphere.
From the foam scattered on the ground and the sight of everyone convulsing like they were electrocuted, Zhao Xinlian didn’t think it was ordinary poison.
If Chen Wei hadn’t made a move, they would have surely died from the poison!
Although she had seen Chen Wei’s medical skills before and knew just how superb they were, she was still unable to restrain her astonishment upon witnessing them again.
Unable to grasp the reason, since he had such incredible abilities, why had he pretended to be a good-for-nothing in her presence for the past three years?
Was he a psychopath who enjoyed this kind of thing?
Or was he the son of some prominent family who wanted to use this method to test whether she was worthy to be a true daughter-in-law of the family?
No matter which answer it was, Zhao Xinlian thought it was pretty far-fetched.
But she leaned more towards the former.
The world is vast, and Zhao Xinlian wouldn’t find it strange whatever special quirks people in this world might have; she had seen far too many eccentrics.
"I told you, I am not only immune to all poisons, but I can also cure all poisons. Now, do you finally believe me?" Chen Wei asked with a smile.
Hearing him say this, Shi Hongyang’s face turned red, veins popping on his forehead, and he immediately entered a state of extreme rage. He turned around, without a word, raised his arm high, and swung the meat cleaver down at Chen Wei.
"Be careful!" Zhao Xinlian shouted anxiously.
In that moment, she was very afraid that Chen Wei would die under Shi Hongyang’s knife.
Why? She didn’t know; she was just scared and didn’t think further.
"Ah," Chen Wei sighed briefly, "being so stubborn, since you are so bent on seeking death, I can’t be blamed then."
"The one seeking death is you, asshole!" Shi Hongyang shouted angrily, showing no signs of backing down.
Everyone watching the scene couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat for Chen Wei, thinking he was going to die under Shi Hongyang’s knife.
But who would have known, no matter how hard Shi Hongyang tried, he simply couldn’t move his arm or the meat cleaver a single inch downward.
Looking to the side in shock, he discovered that Chen Wei had clamped the blade between two fingers!
"Impossible! How can this be happening?" Shi Hongyang didn’t think his strength would be so insignificant.
He became even more frenzied, "I don’t believe it! I don’t believe it! There’s a problem! There must be a problem! You go to hell, to hell!"
Chen Wei said nothing, just applied a little force with his fingertips.
Bang!
A crisp sound of steel breaking echoed, and the knife split in two.
Bang!
Unable to stop his momentum, Shi Hongyang’s body went downwards and he crashed headfirst into the wooden table with a loud noise.
He tried to get up, but a sharp pain shot through his neck the moment he moved.
Then came Chen Wei’s voice, "If you don’t want to die, just stay down."
Only then did Shi Hongyang realize that his neck was now pinned down by a knife held by Chen Wei; with just a little bit of force, he would become a ghost under his knife.
"What kind of monster is this guy?"
"Quick! Go and capture him!" Then, someone accompanied by a group of well-trained security guards hurried over.
The security received the order and carried it out swiftly, disarmed Shi Hongyang, restrained him, and then dialed the police to come and arrest the man.
Shi Hongyang struggled a bit, realized he was outmatched, and chose to give up, resigning to his fate.
"How can it be her?" Chen Wei chuckled lightly; he hadn’t expected to encounter that young girl here, just wondering if she still remembered him.
Judging by the way she was ordering the security guards around, she must have had considerable ties to this hot spring hotel.
"Her?" Zhao Xinlian murmured softly, glancing sideways, and immediately recognized the young girl.
This incident took place a long time ago, shortly after she divorced Chen Wei. She had a chance encounter in a shopping mall while being pursued by one of her suitors, the doctor Han Zhiming...
Zhao Xinlian remembered the young girl clearly because her grandfather had suddenly fallen ill, she was crying like a tearful person, and at that time Han Zhiming was competing against Chen Wei, taunting him for not knowing medicine and lacking qualifications to practice.
However, Chen Wei ended up worsening the old man’s condition. Thankfully, it was Chen Wei who eventually saved the elder’s life, and from that moment on, Zhao Xinlian realized that her ex-husband was not as incompetent as she had imagined.
He had hidden it very well!
At this moment, Zhao Xinlian was even more certain of this.
"Young mister, I didn’t expect it to be you. This is the second time you’ve helped me a lot." The girl noticed Chen Wei and quickly approached him.
"I didn’t expect to meet again so soon; we must have a lot of fate," Chen Wei replied.
"Yes, by the way, let me introduce myself. My name is Liu Yuchan. What’s your name, young mister? I had to leave in such a rush last time, I even forgot to ask. I was really worried I would never see you again in my life," the girl said excitedly, introducing herself.
"Chen Wei, the ’Wei’ as in ’great.’" Chen Wei introduced himself as well.
Then he asked, "What is your relationship with this hot spring hotel?"
"Oh, that." Liu Yuchan began, "This hotel belongs to my family."
Zhao Xinlian’s eyes widened.
She had not expected the person Chen Wei saved that day to have such a significant background.
You must know that this hot spring hotel stands out in River City, unparalleled by anyone. The most horrifying thing is that they have chains all over the country! Every single one is thriving. In River City, their financial power is even greater than the four major families.
It’s just that the old man wasn’t interested in competing for such empty honors and was low-key in his ways, which is why they weren’t as conspicuous as the four major families.
Zhao Xinlian looked at Chen Wei, thinking how lucky this guy was.
"By the way, young mister, who is this lady to you?" Liu Yuchan faintly remembered having seen this person before in the mall.
"It’s nothing." Chen Wei stood up and said to Zhao Xinlian, "We’ve finished our meal, so let’s go our separate ways, as you said earlier."
"Yuchan, would you mind inviting me upstairs for a seat, to have some tea?" Chen Wei’s eyes shifted to Liu Yuchan.
"Of course! Grandpa has always wanted to see you too. He’s upstairs; I’ll take you to him," Liu Yuchan nodded quickly.
"..." Watching the two leave, treating her as if she were air, Zhao Xinlian felt particularly bitter inside.
"Are you in such a hurry to disassociate yourself from me? How cold and heartless!" Zhao Xinlian bit down on her teeth and clenched her fists.
A hint of sourness she couldn’t detect herself flickered through her heart.
Yes, with Zhao Xinlian’s nature and temperament, how could she easily admit that she was actually jealous over a little girl who seemed to have just come of age?
And moreover, it was jealousy over her ex-husband.
