Chapter 383: Chapter 383
Xu Hao laughed and said, "Just a little private matter of a friend. I'll call You Yaozong to let him know and come over."
Li Chenggong nodded slightly. He had heard about You Yaozong's name in the past few days, knowing that he was the authority on skin diseases in Huadu City. However, he felt that compared to Xu Hao, You Yaozong was surely far behind by who knows how many times.
After Xu Hao notified You Yaozong and explained the situation,
an enraged You Yaozong exclaimed over the phone, "Young Master Xu, you're too kind. I'll be right there. That bitch just conned my bank card's PIN from me this morning, and now she's taking another man to buy a house with my hard-earned money that I've saved up, plus the compensation from the Second Young Master of the Zhou Family, amounting to one million! It's infuriating. She's actually using my money to buy a house for another man!!"
After hanging up the phone, he drove straight here.
Xu Hao then suggested to the group, "How about we take a walk nearby?"
Everyone agreed, knowing that Xu Hao wouldn't aimlessly suggest something. He definitely had a matter to deal with, and it might be related to the message they had just discussed.
After walking a short distance, Xu Hao saw Wang Chun Jiao intimately clinging to a tall man – the owner of the Jade Store, Zhou Sheng.
When Wang Chunjie spotted Xu Hao, he visibly dodged Xu Hao's gaze.
Zhou Sheng whispered, "Sister Chun Jiao, what's the matter?"
Wang Chun Jiao glanced at Xu Hao and signaled, "That young man is a friend of my useless husband. I have no idea what he does, but I'm afraid he might tell my husband about what he has seen since he's witnessed it."
"What's his family background like?" Zhou Sheng asked.
"I'm not sure, but judging from his clothes, they seem quite ordinary," she replied.
Zhou Sheng laughed and said, "That's good. These are minor issues. We'll just give him some money as hush money. He'd hardly turn down free cash, and I believe he won't talk."
"Okay," Wang Chun Jiao immediately nodded in agreement.
The two of them quickly agreed and approached Xu Hao and the others. Zhou Sheng took a glance at Anna and Jiang Xuezhun beside Xu Hao, internally surprised to encounter such beautiful ladies here. But he knew now was not the time to flirt.
As for Li Chenggong and Master Xingyi with his distinctive style, Zhou Sheng didn't pay much attention to them, considering them just two ordinary old men.
He smiled and said, "May I ask how to address this gentleman?"
Xu Hao glanced at him and replied, "You're not worthy of knowing my name. I'll give you one chance: leave Wang Chun Jiao and never contact her again, and I'll let you off this once."
"What? You want me to leave Sister Chun Jiao? Kid, just who are you to her?" Zhou Sheng said disdainfully. Мy Virtuаl Librаry Еmpirе (М|V|LЕ1МРYR) thаnks yоu fоr rеаding аt thе sоurсе.
"I'm a friend of her husband, You Yaozong," Xu Hao replied with a light smile. "Wang Chun Jiao, I see Director You still has feelings for you. I didn't want to break up your marriage, but I also don't want him to live a lie. So, if you promise never to involve yourself with other men from now on, I'll spare you this time."
Zhou Sheng frowned slightly, finding Xu Hao to be a meddler. It seemed like the plan to offer hush money would fall through. With a meddler like Xu Hao, hush money would be ineffective.
Wang Chun Jiao was immediately displeased and said coldly, "What are you? I know you have some medical skills, but so what? Are you going to meddle in other people's private lives too?"
Li Chenggong snorted coldly, "Humph! When did it become your turn to bad-mouth my master? Master, shall I ask that kid Chu Yunlong how he manages Huadu City, where such people can commit indecent acts and still justify themselves?"
"You dare to mention Big Brother Chu's name outright!"
Wang Chun Jiao immediately snapped back angrily, "You old fool, you're done for! Big Brother Chu is the number one big shot in Huadu City. Although he doesn't compare to Boss Chen, the number one big shot in Tiannan Province, here in Huadu City, he's one of the top bosses. How dare you mention his name so casually? You just wait to be dealt with!"
Li Chenggong started laughing. Turning to his secretary, he said, "Call Chu Yunlong. I want to see why we can't call out his name!"
Li Chenggong's construction of the film and television base filled a gap in the film industry of Tiannan Province. Therefore, when he selected a few locations for the bases, people like Chen Hai and others showed up, including Chu Yunlong. Being an elder with seniority, Li Chenggong had no issue casually calling Chu Yunlong a kid.
Zhou Sheng grew uneasy, wondering if this friendly-looking old man was a major figure.
However, upon closer look, he still didn't recognize the old man. Before coming to Huadu, he made sure to remember the faces of the prominent figures, precisely to avoid messing up while stealthily trying to make his way in the city.
Once the call was made, Chu Yunlong promptly agreed to arrive within half an hour.
