Chapter 545: The First Batch of Cannon Fodder
The black coal mine where Qian Qian Hongyan was located was geographically situated in Jin Province in Northwest China, the very province famous for its aged vinegar and coal bosses.
This place was one or two thousand kilometers away from Su Hang in the southeast; if one were to drive back directly, it would take at least a day and a night.
Young Master Wu Xin was in quite a rush, so he directly dispatched the Wu family's private jet.
The motorcade took nearly three hours just to drive out of the deep mountains and forests and arrive at the local airport.
At this moment, a Gulfstream jet belonging to the Wu family was already parked on the airport tarmac.
Qian Qian Hongyan had never dreamed that the one coming to pick her up to take her to Su Hang would actually be a private jet!
Tian Zhong took her onto the plane, and the moment she saw the palace-like luxurious interior, her eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
Seeing that she was covered in filth, Tian Zhong frowned and said to her, "There is a restroom in the back of the plane where you can shower. Go in and rinse off; don't dirty our Master's plane."
Qian Qian Hongyan nodded hurriedly and cautiously made her way to the tail of the private jet. Sure enough, there was a very luxurious restroom there; although small, it had a shower, which was truly extraordinary.
Just as she was preparing to shower, the plane began to taxi. Seeing that the plane was about to take off and everyone else was sitting in their seats with their seatbelts fastened, she was afraid that her dirty body would soil the seats, so she hurriedly grabbed the handrail to steady herself.
It wasn't until the plane had taken off, finished climbing, and started flying steadily that Qian Qian Hongyan finally took a shower in the restroom.
After showering, Qian Qian Hongyan followed the instructions of the service staff, put on the new clothes they brought, and sat cautiously in her seat, waiting for her impending fate.
Qian Qian Hongyan was not a fool. Although she didn't know why the Wu family would come to save her, she was certain that there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world; the Wu family must have a use for her.
Subsequently, she thought of her family.
She did not know that at this time, her husband, her son, and her daughter all believed she had absconded with all the family's money and run off with a young lover.
She was even less aware that her family already hated her to the bone.
At this moment, her mind was filled with thoughts of her family; she missed her husband, her son, and her daughter.
In truth, Qian Qian Hongyan was really not a promiscuous woman. For all the time she had been with Xiao Xiao Changqian, she had always been single-mindedly focused on living a good life for the family and had never had any ulterior motives.
But ever since she was sent to the black coal mine, she had been betraying her husband almost every day, and with such a disgusting, rustic country bumpkin at that, which left her feeling a bit uneasy.
She didn't know if her husband would sympathize with her or blame her for cuckolding him if he found out about her experiences during this time.
Thinking of this, Qian Qian Hongyan decided in her heart to conceal this matter and would never mention it to anyone.
When the plane arrived in Su Hang, the sky was already beginning to brighten.
The Wu family's motorcade was already waiting there, and once the plane arrived, they took Qian Qian Hongyan directly to the Wu family's large villa.
Throughout yesterday night, the father and son of the Wu family had not slept.
They weren't waiting for Qian Qian Hongyan; rather, they simply couldn't sleep due to the immense internal and external troubles.
It wasn't just the two of them; Wu Wu Donghai's several siblings, as well as their children, totaling twenty or thirty direct relatives, had sat in the living room for the entire night.
The video of Xue Nanshan and the core members of the Beggar Sect being sunk into the river was still spreading hotly on the internet.
And everyone who saw this video cursed the Wu family countless times in their hearts.
Therefore, the Wu family's reputation continued to slide.
Under these circumstances, every person surnamed Wu in the Wu family was too panicked to sleep.
When Qian Qian Hongyan was brought to the Wu family, Tian Zhong did not let her go directly to the living room but temporarily arranged for her to stay in the servants' living area, then came over to invite Wu Wu Donghai and Wu Xin over.
Hearing that Qian Qian Hongyan had been brought back, the father and son went together to see her.
Upon meeting, Qian Qian Hongyan didn't say a word before kneeling on the ground to kowtow to the two of them, thanking them for saving her life.
Wu Xin said expressionlessly, "Qian Qian Hongyan, we saved you not out of sympathy, but because we need you to do something for us."
Qian Qian Hongyan asked hurriedly, "Whatever it is, please just give the order!"
Wu Xin gritted his teeth and said, "I know you have a grudge against Ye Chen, and I have a grudge against Ye Chen too—an irreconcilable one. I'll just ask you one thing: do you want to take revenge on Ye Chen?"
Qian Qian Hongyan said angrily, "That damned Ye Chen almost killed me and made me suffer to the extreme; I've long wished to tear him to pieces!"
Wu Xin nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's good. Since that's the case, I'll let you return to Jin Ling. Your task is to use every possible means to retaliate against Ye Chen's family! Use all the strength you have!"
Qian Qian Hongyan agreed without hesitation. Even if Wu Xin hadn't said it, once she had the chance to go back, she would definitely seek revenge on Ye Chen.
After agreeing, Qian Qian Hongyan couldn't help but ask, "By the way, Young Master Wu, do you know what the situation is with my husband, my son, my daughter, and my mother-in-law?"
Wu Xin sneered, "They are in a miserable state right now. They were thrown into the detention center by Ye Chen a while ago and haven't been released yet."
"Ah?!" Upon hearing that her whole family was in the detention center, Qian Qian Hongyan asked nervously, "What happened? Are they alright? When can they get out?"
Wu Xin said, "The reason they were thrown into the detention center is that they were harmed by Ye Chen. I suspect they must hate Ye Chen to the bone right now as well."
Qian Qian Hongyan asked nervously, "Young Master Wu, can you release my family? I beg you!"
Wu Xin said indifferently, "Releasing them is certainly possible, but I must ask you: if I release them, will they listen to me and go against Ye Chen?"
Qian Qian Hongyan nodded repeatedly, "They will, they definitely will! To tell you the truth, our whole family has suffered great losses at Ye Chen's hands!"
"My mother-in-law's Xiao Group was ruined by Ye Chen!"
"My husband's and my life savings were also wiped out by Ye Chen!"
"My son was supposed to be the heir to the Xiao Group, but in the end, he was left with nothing and became a loser—that too was thanks to him!"
"My daughter was supposed to marry into the Wang family of Jin Ling and become a young mistress, but after the Wang family toyed with her, they broke off the engagement—that was also the work of that damned Ye Chen!"
When she said this, Qian Qian Hongyan was nearly on the verge of an emotional breakdown due to anger, her whole body trembling violently.
At this moment, her emotions were out of control, and she cried out in despair, "I was sent to that dark, sunless little coal mine and lived a hellish life for so long, wishing I were dead every day, and even attempted suicide several times—it was all caused by that Ye Chen! Our whole family has an irreconcilable hatred for him!"
Wu Xin and his father, Wu Wu Donghai, exchanged a glance.
Their eyes were filled with joy.
The cannon fodder they wanted was exactly those who had a deadly grudge against Ye Chen!
The five members of the Xiao family were all Ye Chen's mortal enemies. As long as they were brought out and placed right under Ye Chen's nose, it would surely make Ye Chen miserable! They were the most ideal first batch of members for the cannon fodder group!
In this way, Ye Chen's energy would inevitably be constrained by many things, and the Wu family would have more opportunities to catch him off guard! ===== CHAPTER 546 =====
