Chapter 1016: Chapter 1013: Back from the Dead

Zhao Qiankun’s gaze was indifferent: ”You all, didn’t harm Mister Xu, did you?”

Boom!

A simple sentence, like a bolt from the blue, made Hou Yuanping and the others’ scalps tingle and shiver with fear.

At this moment, they finally realized why the commander of the Southern Theater Command had led people to surround the criminal police team.

It was obviously because of Xu Wendong.

His identity is quite significant.

So powerful that it’s hard for them to believe.

However.

They dared not believe that even the commander of the Southern Theater Command would address Xu Wendong as Mister.

One must know that this is the head of the Southern Theater Command!

At this moment.

Hou Yuanping only then realized what an unforgivable sin he had committed, and if he had listened to Xu Wendong earlier and let him leave.

There would certainly not have been a big figure from the Southern Theater Command drawn into this.

And now.

He is bound to pay for the mistakes he made.

Of course.

The most terrified one was Liu Anshan, who thought Xu Wendong was just an ordinary bodyguard.

But who could have thought that he had the commander of the Southern Theater Command backing him?

At the same time, he also knew that he would inevitably pay a heavy price.

Even if he was a newly risen entrepreneur in Longyan, no one could save him.

”Commander Zhao, my identity is inconvenient, so I won’t show up to meet you.” Xu Wendong conveyed his thoughts: ”Let the local authorities handle things here, and thanks for today.”

------

After leaving the criminal police team, Xu Wendong immediately contacted Jiang Xueyao with his phone.

After confirming their location, he drove over and met her and Yang Tao at a five-star hotel.

”How did you get back?” Jiang Xueyao’s beautiful eyes were full of shock, not expecting Xu Wendong to return so quickly.

Xu Wendong looked embarrassed: ”Do you not want me to come back?”

”No, not at all.” Jiang Xueyao smiled brightly: ”I just didn’t expect you’d come back so fast.”

Saying this, she looked at Yang Tao: ”Taozi, I told you this guy would come back, right? Now you can put your mind at ease.”

Yang Tao nodded excitedly. With Xu Wendong back, the weight on her mind was finally lifted.

”Alright, go get a room. It’s been a long night. Have a good sleep. I’ll call you tomorrow morning, and then we’ll go have breakfast!”

Jiang Xueyao knew Xu Wendong must carry secrets, but she didn’t ask much.

Because she only needed to know one thing: Xu Wendong harbored no malice towards her.

The next day.

At ten in the morning, Xu Wendong received a call from Jiang Xueyao. After washing up, he went to the first floor to check out.

Moments later, Jiang Xueyao and Yang Tao came to the first floor, chatting and laughing.

Just as they finished the check-out procedures and were about to leave, a slightly overweight middle-aged man walked in, glowing with a rosy complexion.

”Miss Jiang, long time no see!” Huang Xiao laughed heartily: ”I’m sorry, I’m sorry. When I received your call last night, I was in the mountains, and the signal was bad. I hurried back as fast as I could.”

The appearance of Huang Xiao made a trace of disdain flash in Jiang Xueyao’s eyes. Although somewhat surprised, on second thought, it was to be expected.

He must have come because he found out Xu Wendong had been released, thinking to play catch-up.

However.

After the previous events, Jiang Xueyao had already felt disappointed with Huang Xiao.

She looked indifferent and said: ”President Huang, you hold a high rank and your affairs are numerous. How can I waste your time?”

”We’re leaving Longyan now. You go on with your business. Goodbye!” Saying this, she stepped elegantly towards the hotel entrance in her high heels.

Huang Xiao’s expression suddenly froze.

A strong sense of regret surged in his heart.

Because he already knew what had happened the night before.

He knew that Hou Yuanping and others had all been invited to a ”tea session” by the disciplinary committee.

And all of this was because of that guy named Xu Wendong.

Of course.

This is not important.

What is important is.

The event last night was forcibly intervened by the Southern Theater Command, and that commander was deployed.

At that moment.

Huang Xiao realized how terrifying the influence of the Jiang family was — even when faced with pressure from the Qin family, they could turn danger into safety.

For this reason, he came today to apologize, hoping to reconcile with the Jiang family.

But.

Jiang Xueyao’s cold attitude indicated that reconciliation between them was destined to be impossible.

The strong regret made him want to slap himself twice on the face. If he had known earlier that the Jiang family had such horrible connections, he would have reached out to help Xu Wendong last night!

Unfortunately, there aren’t so many ”ifs” in the world.

Nor is there a medicine for regret.

------

After breakfast, Xu Wendong filled up the car with gas and drove Jiang Xueyao and Yang Tao out of Longyan.

However, this time they didn’t hurry back to the Magic Capital; after all, with a journey of a thousand kilometers, there were many fun cities along the way and delicious foods.

They stopped in three cities for three days.

A journey of three hundred kilometers a day was very relaxing.

Neither the driving driver nor the passengers in the car felt the fatigue of traveling.

While Xu Wendong was driving Jiang Xueyao and Yang Tao back to the Magic Capital.

Jiang Xueyao received a call from Qin Yuan, his voice carrying a tone of amusement: ”Miss Jiang, there are still three days left in the ten-day deadline. Have you considered your decision?”

”Would you wait until you’re truly beaten before accepting it?”

Jiang Xueyao said calmly: ”The ten-day deadline has not yet arrived, Qin Yuan really thinks he has already won?”

Although she hadn’t been in the Magic Capital these days, she knew about the recent plight of Jiang Corporation.

The Mountain and Water Manor was deserted, with no guests visiting.

The corporate company also faced the biggest challenge in its history as all partners stopped cooperating with Jiang Corporation.

Furthermore, debt collectors from the bank were always blocking the door of Jiang’s villa.

This made everyone in the Jiang family feel what a collapse really means, filling them with a vague sense of despair.

In the past, Jiang Xueyao would have been fearful and uneasy, but now she was unusually calm.

Because she believed in Xu Wendong.

”In that case, let’s settle this in three days.” Qin Yuan laughed menacingly: ”In three days, you will undoubtedly wash yourself clean and willingly lie in my bed, become my plaything.”

Jiang Xueyao was full of disgust: ”You won’t have that fortune.” She said, then hung up the phone.

Driving, Xu Wendong glanced in the rearview mirror, seeing Jiang Xueyao’s worried expression, knowing she was still concerned.

Thus, he cleared his throat and smiled, saying: ”President Jiang, you don’t need to worry, Zhonghu Hermit, will call upon powerful cultivators tonight, and three days from now, they will gather at the Mountain and Water Manor.”

”With his influence, in three days, the Mountain and Water Manor will undoubtedly be lively and crowded with distinguished guests.”

Jiang Xueyao’s lips curved into a subtle, meaningful smile: ”If Zhonghu Hermit announces today to invite cultivators to gather at the Mountain and Water Manor, wouldn’t it mean that, starting tonight, the Jiang family will revive?”
