"Alright, no problem. When do we leave?"

982 Don't even think about welching on the deal!

982 Don't even think about welching on the deal!

Hearing Ximen Wudi's words, Yang Qian immediately agreed and asked at once.

Huh?

This girl seems a little strange today!

"Half an hour, get ready, I'll be waiting for you!"

Ximen Wudi gave Yang Qian a casual glance, then spoke in a teasing tone.

In his mind, the image of Yang Qian in an evening gown immediately surfaced, and the corners of his mouth twitched into a grin.

"You scammer, don't forget what you promised me last night. Hmph, don't even think about welching on the deal!"

Yang Qian on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, then immediately reminded him.

What the heck?

Holy crap, this girl actually brought that up—does she want me to take responsibility for her?

"Ahem, don't worry, mission guaranteed."

Ximen Wudi gave an awkward dry cough and swore an oath on the spot.

This...

"Pfft, as if anyone wants you to take responsibility. Hanging up!"

Hearing Ximen Wudi's words, Yang Qian let out a coquettish huff, then quickly ended the call.

This...

Damn, what the hell is wrong with me?

Hearing the busy tone from the phone, Ximen Wudi felt a wave of helplessness, but shook his head bitterly.

He felt that today's Yang Qian was a little different from usual—especially when mentioning the agreement between the two of them last night, there was a clear hint of bashfulness.

But he hadn't taken last night's words seriously at all—after all, it was in a hotel bathtub, so nothing actually happened.

Ring ring!

Just then, the phone rang again, giving him a start.

Damn!

It couldn't be that girl Yang Qian again, could it? Why is she calling once more?

"Hello?"

He glanced at the phone screen before answering.

"Ximen Wudi, my father requests to meet with you."

Immediately, a clear, pleasant voice—as melodious and lingering as an oriole—came through the phone, making Ximen Wudi's eyes widen.

Isn't this Yang Qian?

Although he had already guessed it in his heart, he still asked uncertainly to confirm through the phone.

"Hey, Yang Qian, what do you need, buddy?"

Ximen Wudi took a deep breath before asking casually.

"My father is waiting for you at home. I hope you can come over. His condition has been getting worse recently, so that's why..."

Click!

Before Yang Qian could finish speaking, Ximen Wudi hung up without the slightest hesitation.

Damn it!

This girl actually called to tell him something this important—doesn't she fear I'll run away?

"Yang Qian, you're forcing me to commit a crime!"

Staring at the hung-up phone, Ximen Wudi's face immediately darkened, and he muttered to himself.

At this point, he could only temporarily suppress the agitation in his heart, tidy up his clothes a bit, and head downstairs.

"Chairman Xiao, where are you rushing off to in such a hurry?"

When he reached the lobby, Wang Xuefu's secretary happened to walk over and ask him.

"Going to meet a friend. Book dinner and have it delivered home first, no need to wait for me to eat."

Ximen Wudi casually explained, his pace never slowing as he walked straight out of the Yuankai Group building.

He had no idea what Yang Qian's father actually wanted with him, so he didn't want to delay too long.

But he didn't notice that just as he walked out of the company, a private investigator's car had already driven into Yuankai Group, immediately pointing its camera at his retreating figure.

Squeal!

Moreover, after tailing him for about five minutes, that car suddenly accelerated, quickly overtaking a taxi ahead.

"Holy crap, who the hell is this? Driving without eyes!"

The young man in the passenger seat curled his lip and immediately cursed.

"Hey, Young Master, don't be angry. In a moment, you'll see that kid's true face!"

The driver immediately said with a smile to the young man in the back seat, a hint of malice flashing in his eyes.

"Hmm? The direction this guy's heading looks awfully familiar. Seems like it's not toward Yuankai Group—is he going to the hospital?"

The young man's brows rose, and he muttered doubtfully, his expression even turning solemn.

Xiao Residence?

Something's off!

At the gate of Yuankai Group, Ximen Wudi's footsteps suddenly came to a halt. The corners of his mouth twitched twice, and he muttered darkly under his breath.

Hoo!

Then he exhaled a breath of stale air and immediately headed in the direction of Yang Qian's home.

Since it was Yang Mingchen looking for him, there definitely wouldn't be any danger.

"Oh, Ximen Wudi, you've finally come! Hurry up, my father can't hold on much longer!"

The moment he stepped into Yang Mingchen's house, Yang Qian's voice rang out at once, causing Ximen Wudi to crack a mischievous grin despite himself.

Heh!

Old thing, still alive after all — looks like he's in pretty good spirits!

Creak.

He gently pushed open the door, stepped into the living room, and saw Yang Mingchen lying on the sofa.

"Ximen Wudi, hurry and treat my dad!"

Yang Qian, no longer caring about anything else, anxiously shouted at once, and a pair of beautiful eyes instantly fell upon Ximen Wudi.

Heh!

Just that expression alone made him grin a relaxed grin without speaking.

"Hehe, I knew you'd definitely come. Come on, take this old man's pulse."

Yang Mingchen, still lying on the sofa, his face slightly pale, spoke to Ximen Wudi and pointed at the tea table beside him.

This...

"Master, I'm afraid I can't help you this time, because this was your Sun Nu's request — otherwise I'd rather starve to death."

Yet Ximen Wudi merely smiled faintly and explained on the spot.

What?

My granddaughter?

Didn't this guy say he didn't have a girlfriend?

Upon hearing Ximen Wudi's words, Yang Mingchen instantly clenched his teeth in rage, and several veins even popped up on his forehead in an instant.

This scammer actually dares to lie to me — simply too detestable!

"Hehe, Master, I'm an honest and trustworthy man, wouldn't you say?"

Ximen Wudi laughed with a teasing tone and quipped at Yang Mingchen.

Damn it!
