Chapter 468: Chapter 0468: Li Wenxuan Acts

"Teacher, didn’t you ask us why we haven’t been at school these past few days?" Li Xiaoli looked at Li Wenxuan with a pained expression and said,

"It’s because we were kidnapped, that’s why we took leave to recuperate at home."

"I can vouch for that, Tang Ming has told me about these occurrences!"

Xia Wei’er, who had remained silent up until now, immediately stepped forward and said anxiously,

"Now that Tang Ming’s cultivation has been crippled and he’s been taken away, Jack is the most likely suspect. Please tell us where he is, Teacher!"

"Don’t panic, please have a seat first."

Li Wenxuan’s face was somewhat pale. As she gestured for the three girls to sit down, she felt a wave of guilt thinking,

"I never expected that by using Tang Ming as a shield, I would bring so much trouble upon him. Having his cultivation at the Martial Master Realm destroyed, for a martial artist, it’s a fate worse than death, and yet I failed to notice it yesterday, continuing to lecture him incessantly. I deserve to die!"

Li Wenxuan was filled with guilt and self-reproach, thinking feverishly of a plan, upon realizing that it was because of her that Tang Ming had ended up in his current plight.

Looking at Liu Mengting and the other two waiting expectantly for her to speak, Li Wenxuan took several deep breaths and forced a strained smile.

"Don’t worry, I’ll figure out a way to contact Jack right now. I haven’t heard from that guy lately, I thought he had given up knowing the difficulty, but I didn’t expect..."

At that moment, Li Wenxuan finally understood why Tang Ming had said that Jack would never bother her again in this lifetime. She should have realized that Jack and Tang Ming must have had another encounter since then, but she hadn’t anticipated things would turn out like this.

"That guy has been castrated by me, so from now on, he won’t be able to harass you anymore," Li Xiaoli stated with a smug laugh, proudly adding, "I did it."

Li Wenxuan stared at Li Xiaoli for a long while, realization dawning on her. Previously, Tang Ming had mentioned that Jack wanted to assault two girls and ended up being made into a eunuch, referring to Liu Mengting and Li Xiaoli.

If she had only asked a few more questions back then, she would have known. She hadn’t taken an interest in Jack’s affairs and had not inquired in detail, otherwise, she could have deduced why Tang Ming had left.

"Let’s all calm down, I’ll think of a solution," Li Wenxuan steadied the emotions of the three girls and analyzed,

"Given the current situation, I don’t know where Jack is. Moreover, if Tang Ming really has fallen into his hands, it’s unlikely he’ll tell the truth if I rashly contact him, don’t you agree?"

The three girls nodded in agreement; after all, they were still young and didn’t have as thorough and comprehensive consideration of the situation as Li Wenxuan did.

"What we need to do now is to find out where Jack is, so we must be clever when we contact him."

Li Wenxuan pulled out her phone and seriously reminded them, "When I make the call in a moment, don’t say anything, okay?"

The three girls naturally had no objections; they would do anything to find Tang Ming.

After reaching a consensus, Li Wenxuan dialed Jack’s number.

Jack was still recuperating in the hospital and was very surprised to receive a call from Li Wenxuan.

Looking at the caller ID, Jack was torn. If this had been before, receiving a call from Li Wenxuan would have thrilled him to no end, but now that he was a eunuch, even if Li Wenxuan appeared before him stark naked, he would have no reaction.

"Pursuing Li Wenxuan was not only my personal desire, but also related to my family’s interests. What am I going to do now?" Jack sighed in conflict, then decided to answer the phone to keep Li Wenxuan appeased:

"Hey, Xuan’er, why are you calling me? Is something the matter?"

"Hmph, can’t I call you if there’s nothing wrong?" Li Wenxuan said coquettishly.

"This..."

Jack’s head was tingling, Li Wenxuan had never spoken to him like this before, and it made his heart flutter:

"Sure, sure, of course you can, it’s just a bit sudden, that’s all."

"Why did you suddenly stop contacting me recently?" Li Wenxuan asked with some dismay.

"I..." Jack glanced at his lower body and said helplessly:

"You already have a boyfriend, how could I dare to bother you."

"Liar, you said before how much you liked me, and now you’re giving up so easily, men really are no good!"

Li Wenxuan complained somewhat sadly.

What’s going on? Jack was utterly confused. The current Li Wenxuan sounded like a resentful woman who had been abandoned, but why would she react like this?

"I truly do like you, it’s just because of that I wish for you to be happy."

Jack calmed his emotions and said deeply, "There’s a kind of love called letting go, and since you’ve found happiness, I have no choice but to leave."

"You’re quite the romantic, huh! I just randomly picked someone to pretend to be my boyfriend to test you, and you gave up. This only proves that you never really liked me."

Li Wenxuan roared angrily, and then hung up the phone.

Liu Mengting and the other two girls were dumbstruck as they watched Li Wenxuan. They knew this was one of her ruses, but they hadn’t expected Li Wenxuan’s acting to be so convincing. She didn’t even mention meeting up or Tang Ming and called Jack with the tone of a woman filled with sorrow. If he still had feelings for her, he would surely call back.

"Huff huff huff." Li Wenxuan ignored the reactions of the three girls and stared at her phone with a tense expression.

She could guess Jack’s current predicament, having committed such a big kidnapping, he must be afraid of the police catching him. So if she asked Jack directly about his whereabouts, he wouldn’t respond straightforwardly. Only by taking such an indirect approach could she obtain effective clues.

At this moment, in the hospital, Jack was completely dumbfounded.

"A fake boyfriend? Testing me?"

Jack muttered in disgust. He had thought that Tang Ming was truly Li Wenxuan’s boyfriend, which led to all his subsequent actions, ending up making himself a eunuch. Now that he knew Tang Ming had nothing to do with Li Wenxuan, didn’t that mean he had brought this upon himself? He truly was screwed!

"After all that, Li Wenxuan was testing me? It seems like she’s been interested in me for a while but has just been stringing me along. If I had known this, why would I have ever bothered Tang Ming?"

Jack muttered dejectedly to himself, then his eyes lit up. If Li Wenxuan genuinely liked him, then he still had a chance to pursue her.

Even though he had become a eunuch, with today’s advanced medicine, he could have the Yang Family find the best doctor to transplant an organ and still have a chance to be a man again.

Thinking of this, hope flared up in Jack’s heart once more. The priority was to win over Li Wenxuan first, and worry about treatment later.

After securing Li Wenxuan’s affection, he would try to delay any intimate moments between them as much as possible, which could make her think him a true gentleman. By then, she would surely be even more devoted to him.
