Chapter 798: Chapter 798: Betrayal

About an hour later, Chen Xiaoli arrived here.

When she saw the house, Chen Xiaoli was stunned.

"Qingcheng, did you... did you buy a house here?" Chen Xiaoli looked at the huge house of more than five hundred square meters, her eyes brimming with envy.

This was Demon City, after all, and not only that, it was in such a good area of Demon City, and so large, how could she not be envious.

She had always dreamed of having a house like this.

Unfortunately, it wasn’t hers.

"Hmm, Xiaoli, what do you think of this house?" Li Qingcheng asked with a beaming smile.

Chen Xiaoli touched the walls of the house.

The house was well-decorated, incredibly spacious, and the decor was of the highest standard.

It looked luxurious and magnificent.

"It’s so beautiful, if I had a house like this, I would wake up laughing from my dreams," Chen Xiaoli said with extreme envy.

Then, with a slightly acidic tone, she asked, "Qingcheng, did your boyfriend Lin Dong buy this for you?"

Li Qingcheng giggled.

This was the gift she was preparing for Chen Xiaoli, but right now, she hadn’t told Chen Xiaoli the truth.

Instead, she was planning to tell her when she was leaving Demon City, to give her a big surprise.

Upon hearing Chen Xiaoli’s question, Li Qingcheng also looked towards Lin Dong, then covered her mouth and giggled:

"Kind of, because he paid for it."

"Sure enough, Qingcheng’s boyfriend is really rich, she’s so lucky." While Chen Xiaoli envied her, there was also a hint of jealousy in her heart.

This was a house worth billions, and her boyfriend said he’d give it as a gift just like that, it was too generous.

Now, the way she looked at Lin Dong was very uncomfortable.

At first, she had looked down on him, thinking that people like Huang Yiwu and Wu Yingsheng were far superior to him.

Thinking back on it now, she felt terribly ashamed.

Not just Huang Yiwu and Wu Yingsheng, but even the wealthy young masters from Demon City, who could do something like this?

To casually gift his girlfriend a luxury mansion of more than five hundred square meters in this area of the city?

She grew more and more envious of Li Qingcheng, and her jealousy intensified as well.

Li Qingcheng had no idea what Chen Xiaoli was thinking, and seeing her like the house so much, she felt reassured.

After leaving Tang Chen first-grade, Chen Xiaoli said uneasily, "Qingcheng, I... I have some things to do, so I’ll leave first."

"Mhm, go take care of your stuff," Li Qingcheng replied nonchalantly and waved goodbye to her.

After Chen Xiaoli left, Lin Dong accompanied Li Qingcheng back to the hotel.

When they got back to the hotel, Lin Dong noticed that Liu Chuanqi seemed a bit off.

"Why do I feel like your dad has been acting a bit strange these past two days?" Lin Dong said to Li Qingcheng.

Li Qingcheng slightly frowned and said indifferently, "What could be wrong with him?"

"These last couple of days, I always see him going out early and coming back late, as if he has something on his mind," Lin Dong said seriously.

"Huh..." Li Qingcheng let out a cold laugh: "What could be bothering him? It’s guilt. We’re in the city where he watched his wife get killed all those years ago."

"If it were me, I’d feel guilty too."

After saying that, Li Qingcheng’s mood became even more dour, her expression growing colder.

She walked briskly towards the hotel, heading back to her own room.

Seeing this, Lin Dong also sighed.

It seemed their father-daughter relationship might never be fully mended in this lifetime.

"Big brother, you asked me to find out if there were any heavenly and earthly treasures in Demon City, and I actually found some," Ah Lang said to Lin Dong.

This was indeed a surprise for Lin Dong, who quickly responded, "Ah Lang, tell me more."

Ah Lang nodded and explained, "I’ve been searching all the major medical halls in Demon City for heavenly and earthly treasures, as you instructed."

"I went to Demon City’s largest medical hall ’Renyi Hall’ today, and they told me that their largest stakeholder, the Hua Family, has some."

"That Hua Family is a medical noble family in Demon City. They are descendants of Hua Tuo, and the current head of the family is called Hua Rong."

"Hua Rong has a daughter who is still in high school, but several months ago, she contracted a strange disease and has been going crazy."

"Hua Rong is also from a family of medical heritage, and his medical arts are well-known in Demon City, yet he still can’t cure his daughter."

"He sought many famous doctors for treatment with no success. So, he issued a reward."

"Anyone who can cure his daughter will receive a generous reward from the Hua Family."

"Among the rewards is one item, a five-hundred-year-old Polygonum Multiflorum, which is a heavenly material."

"There’s also another item even more precious, an ancient pill formula passed down in their family. But I didn’t ask what exactly that pill formula is..."

After hearing Ah Lang’s story, Lin Dong asked, "Where is the Hua Family located?"

"Big brother, I’ve already figured out where the Hua Family lives, I’ll drive you there immediately," Ah Lang said.

Lin Dong nodded, and then followed Ah Lang out of the hotel.

...

On the other hand, after returning home, Chen Xiaoli felt more and more jealous.

In the end, she couldn’t help it and took out her phone to contact Wu Hao.

The moment the call connected, Wu Hao’s voice rang out, "So, have you thought it over?"

"Yes, I’ve thought it over, I agree to it!" Chen Xiaoli said through clenched teeth.

"Haha, good, I’ll come over to you immediately," he replied.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Xiaoli clutched her phone, looking in the direction of Tang Chen first-grade.

Grumbling to herself, she said, "Qingcheng, I’m sorry. You’ll forgive me, right? I really want to own a house in Demon City!"

"I really want to be one of those people above others."
