Chapter 78: Chapter 78, The Beautiful Sister Loves Holding Grudges

After finishing lunch with the Wang siblings and going their separate ways, Xu Wendong received a call from his sister-in-law, Lin Yiren, saying she and Wu Mei had already returned home.

Not only that, but she also mentioned that Wu Mei wanted to see him about something, gave his phone number to Wu Mei, and urged him to come home early after work.

Not long after hanging up with his sister-in-law, Xu Wendong received a call from an unknown number. He didn’t need to think to guess; it was definitely Wu Mei.

This gave Xu Wendong a bit of a headache. He always suspected Wu Mei moved across from his sister-in-law with an ulterior motive, to threaten him. But it turned out he was overthinking things. Wu Mei did no such thing and even took his sister-in-law to the hot springs, successfully avoiding the hidden dangers posed by the Black Dragon Hall.

If it were just that, it would be fine. The problem was that when Xu Wendong helped her with a massage, he injected a stream of True Qi into her, making her life worse than death.

And Wu Mei also said, in order to earn her forgiveness, he must grovel at her feet...

Although Xu Wendong had experienced groveling from his sister-in-law Lin Yiren and Huang Ruirui,

he never imagined himself groveling before a woman.

Seeing the phone ringing incessantly, Xu Wendong sighed helplessly, answered, and said, ”I’m waiting for you at the Shelter Teahouse in front of High School No. 2. Come over to find me!”

”Okay.”

About twenty minutes later, a black BMW X5 parked outside the teahouse. The car’s passenger window rolled down, revealing an alluring face, with wine-red hair and fiery red lips that showcased pure sensuality.

Xu Wendong opened the car door, sat in the passenger seat, and fastened his seatbelt: ”Take me to the hospital!”

Wu Mei gave a faintly intriguing smile: ”You’re not treating me like a free chauffeur, are you?”

Although Xu Wendong was ruthless and decisive against enemies, he felt strangely awkward and uneasy around beautiful women, let alone Wu Mei, who also helped his sister-in-law avoid the Black Dragon Hall’s dangers.

It wouldn’t be an overstatement to say he owed her a favor.

”Thank you!” In the end, his countless words turned into just two, and besides these two words, Xu Wendong didn’t know what else to say.

”A simple ’thank you’ is enough for me to forgive you? Enough to make me forget the pain I suffered?” Wu Mei chuckled lightly. She reached out with her slender fingers, lightly caressing the sturdy steering wheel, as if stroking a man’s forbidden object, with a playful smile on her face: ”I said before, if you want me to forgive you, you must grovel at my feet.”

Xu Wendong’s toes writhed with embarrassment, almost scratching through the car’s floor: ”Sister, I’ll call you sister, anything little brother did wrong, please be the bigger person and forgive me, okay!”

Wu Mei sighed lightly: ”Since you’re calling me sister, I ought to be more generous, but I just love holding grudges. What can be done about it?”

”You wouldn’t want me to tell your sister-in-law that you’re young and idle, starting to mix in the underworld, would you?” With a raised eyebrow, she was clearly threatening Xu Wendong.

Xu Wendong’s face was full of anxiety. He didn’t want his sister-in-law to know about his involvement in the underworld because he only wanted to be the simple, kind doctor in her heart.

Seeing Xu Wendong nervous and at a loss, Wu Mei didn’t continue to tease him and instead changed the subject: ”Did you go in last night?”

Xu Wendong: ”Yeah, stayed there for a while.”

Wu Mei couldn’t help but marvel: ”Who would have thought you actually have such capability, going in and still coming out.”

Xu Wendong abruptly said: ”Zhao Sihai is dead.”

”Some rules cannot be broken, or there will inevitably be repercussions.” Wu Mei’s face revealed no emotion, but her heart could not help but feel sorrowful.

No matter what, Zhao Sihai had saved her life.

She truly didn’t expect Zhao Sihai to end up this way.

Xu Wendong: ”Whose is that black Mercedes S-Class luxury car with four eights?”

Wu Mei said casually: ”It belongs to Shengpeng Group’s top man, everyone knows that. Didn’t you know?”

Xu Wendong: ”I’ve seen that car, twice in fact.”

Wu Mei was puzzled: ”And then?”

Xu Wendong’s eyes turned cold: ”The first time was when Zhao Dahua brought sixty-eight men to attack me under the overpass. At that time, that black Mercedes S-Class was parked in the distance.”

”The second time was last night at Di Hao Nightclub; that car was also parked in the rain.”

”Let me take a bold guess.”

”After I injured the seventy-eight masters of the Black Dragon Hall, people from Shengpeng Group probably contacted your group.”

”And told you about the reconstruction of South City, even proposing teaming up with you and offering some help.”

Screech!

Wu Mei immediately slammed the brake, staring at Xu Wendong in shock: ”How... how do you know so much detail? The only ones who know about this are Zhao Sihai, Zhao Dalong, and me, along with Shengpeng Group’s Uncle Fu. Aside from the four of us, no one knows this information. How could you know such details?”

Before Xu Wendong could reply, her pupils suddenly contracted: ”I see, I see, Shengpeng Group told us about the South City reconstruction to use you to get rid of Zhao Sihai because they knew your capability, that if Zhao Sihai couldn’t handle you, they wouldn’t be able to obtain the project!”

”What a clever scheme to watch from the mountain and reap the rewards!”

Her face turned pale, never realizing the enemy’s scheming was so sinister. Even though she was known as the Female Zhuge, she miscalculated this time, utterly missing the enemy’s ultimate goal of the South City reconstruction project.

Snapping back to reality, her face was filled with sorrow: ”Old Zhao died in vain!”

Xu Wendong murmured: ”Birth, old age, sickness, and death, it’s the cycle of Heavenly Dao. But dying under someone else’s conspiracy and manipulation, it’s really not worth it.”

”So what is your plan?” Wu Mei asked, looking seriously at Xu Wendong, not underestimating him for being newly adult. Not to say he gave her an intensely dangerous feeling, merely that he could see through being used as a pawn already proved his extraordinary wisdom.

Xu Wendong’s eyes were cold: ”I hope you can take Zhao Sihai’s place and carry the banner as South City’s big shot. That big piece of cake should not be enjoyed by others.”

Wu Mei laughed, shaking her head: ”Useless, even if I can take Zhao Sihai’s place, I’d just be a commander with no troops.”

She already knew all the core members of the Black Dragon Hall had been captured and that the Black Dragon Hall was done for.

Xu Wendong said: ”No, as long as you’re willing to take Zhao Sihai’s place, the former members of the Black Dragon Hall will gradually return.”

An unbelievable look filled Wu Mei’s profound eyes: ”So, the reason I could stay out of trouble and go to hot springs with your sister-in-law without getting caught is all because of you?”
