Chapter 117: Chapter 117

A series of urgent phone rings suddenly started sounding from his pocket.

Zhang Xiaohao frowned and said, "Who would call me at this time?"

Unable to figure it out, he took out his cell phone, unlocked three sets of passwords, and saw that it was the old man calling.

"Hello, old man, not sleeping late at night, what’s got you calling me? Could it be that your precious granddaughter is missing me?" Zhang Xiaohao said with a smirk.

"Cough! Cough!" Mr. Xu on the other end of the line coughed awkwardly and said sternly, "Xiaohao, I don’t have time to joke with you. There’s something very urgent I need to tell you!"

"Heh, old man, don’t scare me. Let me make it clear, I’m retired now, and won’t take on missions anymore, um, no matter how much you pay me. Of course, if you’re willing to introduce your precious granddaughter to me, to talk about life, talk about dreams, I might consider it," Zhang Xiaohao boasted.

"The assassins sent by the Sankou Association have already arrived; the leader is called Jingbian Cao. They are a group of seven, and they are currently heading to the Heavenly Life Villa, presumably after you," Mr. Xu’s voice was heavy on the line.

"What? What did you say? The trash from the Sankou Association has already come? And they’re on their way to the Heavenly Life Villa now?" Zhang Xiaohao exclaimed in shock.

"Mhm," Mr. Xu nodded heavily.

"Damn it! Then why didn’t you tell me sooner?" Zhang Xiaohao raged, hung up the phone, and frantically performed the Twelve Heavenly Steps, turning into a streak of light, rushing toward the Heavenly Life Villa.

He swore that if anything happened to Xue’er, he would obliterate the entire R country!

Outside Bai Xue Company, Cheng Tianxue walked out of the corporate building with a cold face, yet deep in her beautiful eyes, there was a hint of surprise.

After a period of overtime work and sufficient funding, the new product under development was almost a success.

Once the product development succeeded, it would be time for her Bai Xue Company to fight a beautiful battle for resurgence.

Once the company made money, Cheng Tianxue vowed to herself that the first thing to do would be to divorce that detestable bastard Zhang Xiaohao!

Even grandfather would not be able to stop her then.

Thinking of this, Cheng Tianxue felt as happy as if she had eaten honey, leaving the building and walking towards her beloved car.

"Mr. Cheng, good day!" The security guard at the door saluted respectfully upon seeing Cheng Tianxue come out.

"Mhm," Cheng Tianxue nodded calmly, just about to walk down the steps when her eyes caught a glimpse of Sun Dafu seated at the entrance. After pondering for a moment, she frowned and said, "What’s the matter with this old man?"

"In response to Mr. Cheng, we don’t know either. He has been sitting here since the afternoon," a young security guard said.

He was a trusted subordinate of Li Xiaolu, and naturally, a confidant of Zhang Xiaohao as well. He definitely would not mention the altercation Zhang Xiaohao had with this old man in the afternoon or the fact that Zhang had kicked him away.

Cheng Tianxue took two steps forward and asked, "Old man, do you need help with something, sitting here?"

Sun Dafu was rather proud in temperament and a practitioner in the early stages of Foundation Establishment, naturally carrying quite an air of importance.

Seeing Cheng Tianxue approach, he snorted and turned his face away, not even glancing at her.

Suddenly, a cold breeze blew by.

Sun Dafu’s nose twitched vigorously; having dealt with medicinal herbs for a long time, his nose was extremely sensitive. From this young woman before him, he smelled Zhang Xiaohao’s scent, and it was a deep one.

This scent, if one hasn’t been in bed going at it, it simply couldn’t be this strong.

"Could she be a senior’s woman? Hmm, with her beauty rivaling that of a celestial and her svelte figure, given the senior’s personality, it must be so!" Sun Dafu secretly thought.

At that thought, Sun Dafu sprang up from the icy ground in a flash.

"This humble old man has seen the great one!" Sun Dafu said respectfully.

Cheng Tianxue was startled, completely baffled as well!

"The great one? Does this old man have a problem with his brain? Otherwise, why would he call me the great one? Hmm, he must have been greatly shocked in spirit!" Cheng Tianxue thought to herself.

With that in mind, Cheng Tianxue unzipped her bag, took out ten crisp hundred-dollar bills from her LV tote, and handed them over.

"It’s not easy for you as an elder, take this money and have a good meal tonight, and take a bus home tomorrow!"

After speaking, Cheng Tianxue stuffed the money into Sun Dafu’s hands and turned to walk towards her beloved car.

A gust of cold wind blew, leaving Sun Dafu in a whirlwind of disarray...

"What a good girl! In this dog-eat-dog, deceitful world, to still retain such an innocent heart, no wonder the senior likes her! I’m ashamed in comparison! Next to her, I’m simply abashed!" Sun Dafu sighed inwardly.

The fiery red Ferrari 911 sports car roared fiercely, leaving behind a trail of black smoke, speeding off like a ghost.

"Ah! Why did she leave? No, I must return the money to her!" Realizing this, Sun Dafu mumbled anxiously in his heart.

Watching the fiery red Ferrari about to disappear, Sun Dafu couldn’t afford to delay any longer, he stepped forward, executing an unknown set of movement techniques, and swooshed away, leaving a huge gust of wind in his wake.

"Where did that old man by the side go just now? Did you see him?"

"Wasn’t he just here a moment ago? How did he vanish in the blink of an eye?"

"Holy crap! Could that old man be a ghost? Otherwise, how did he just disappear all of a sudden?"

At this point, the security guards at the entrance looked at each other, seeing fear in each other’s eyes, shivering, they dared not speak any further.

Inside the Porsche 911 sports car.

Cheng Tianxue was in a good mood tonight, listening to the car stereo, driving home.

She glanced unintentionally at the rearview mirror, and from the left mirror, saw a dark figure stubbornly following behind her.

"Ah! A ghost!" Cheng Tianxue screamed in terror, subconsciously jerking the steering wheel, and the sports car nearly hit the nearby guardrail.

Fortunately, she wasn’t driving too fast, and she corrected the steering wheel in time.

Suppressing the fear in her heart, Cheng Tianxue forced herself to remain calm, dared not look back again, and frantically stepped on the gas, speeding forward.

"Huh! She’s speeding up again? Luckily, we are in the city with lots of traffic, can’t go too fast! If this were the suburbs, even if I ran until my legs broke, I wouldn’t be able to catch up!" Sun Dafu grumbled to himself, as True Qi erupted, and his speed doubled as he swiftly pursued her.

"Ah! It’s going to catch up again! To think I, Cheng Tianxue, am so bright and beautiful, with an enviable figure that other women are jealous of, am I really going to be eaten by a ghost tonight? I’m truly not reconciled!" Cheng Tianxue said with regret. Read complete versıon only at 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵※𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮※𝓷𝓮𝓽

In her heart, she didn’t know why, but she suddenly thought of Zhang Xiaohao’s roguish figure. If she had known that she’d be "eaten by a ghost" tonight, she would rather have given herself completely to that bastard Zhang Xiaohao—at least she’d have been properly... gone at it...
