Chapter 712: Chapter 712

Outside the gate, a group of burly men appeared.

Standing in front of them was a slightly slenderer young man.

He waved his hand to dispel the dust before him, and laughed loudly, "Hahaha! Do you think you're safe hiding behind the big door? I'm clever as they come, and I already thought that you wouldn't open the door for me, so I directly had a bulldozer brought over! With this toy, no matter how sturdy your door is, it'll be smashed open by me!"

"Young Master Wei is wise! Young Master Wei is valiant!"

"Young Master Wei, you're truly amazing, I admire you to the utmost!"

"Young Master Wei, you're simply Zhuge Liang reincarnated, your strategies are unparalleled!"

These people flattered the young man one after another, their words would absolutely make a bystander feel sick, but Young Master Wei didn't find them disgusting at all, instead, he felt it was very enjoyable.

He laughed loudly, "Hahaha! Everyone, don't talk like that, it makes me, Wu Wei, feel embarrassed!"

However, as the flattery grew louder, far from being embarrassed, he enjoyed it even more.

All the children glared at him with fury; if looks could kill, he would have been dead long ago.

All the children were clear, Wu Wei was the mastermind behind all this!

The dust settled, revealing the situation near the gate.

The children first looked toward the gate, but Xiao Lan's figure was nowhere to be seen!

"Sister Xiao Lan! Sister Xiao Lan must be under the gate!"

Xiao Bao immediately shouted; his eyes darted around as he said, "Come on, let's work together, lift the gate, and quickly rescue Sister Xiao Lan from underneath!"

Upon hearing his words, the children immediately ran toward the gate, crying.

Hearing Xiao Bao say Xiao Lan was under the gate, Wu Wei suddenly said with a face full of pity, "Ah, such a pity, Xiao Lan is a first-rate beauty, but who would have thought she'd have such bad luck, getting crushed under the gate. Ah, I had thought that after smashing this place up, I'd take her home to enjoy myself. Now it's a pity, no enjoyment there; she's been crushed under this gate that weighs at least a thousand catties. Even a Mastery level expert would be half-dead from such a blow!"

When a child heard his words, he immediately roared, "You murderer, I will fight you!"

He shouted and rushed toward Wu Wei, intending to fight him.

But Xiao Bao yelled, "Never mind him, saving Sister Xiao Lan is what's important!"

The child stopped in his tracks upon hearing Xiao Bao's words and stood by the gate, like the other children, attempting to lift it.

The gate was clearly tilting upward, with Xiao Lan evidently beneath it. This copy was generated from content at *.

A muscular man standing beside Wu Wei said, "Young Master Wei, should we stop them?"

Wu Wei laughed loudly, "Haha, let them be. Xiao Lan is probably already squashed into a pancake. Even if they manage to lift up the gate, it's no use; she's dead, what's there to save?"

Hearing Wu Wei say this, those people stopped in their tracks and just stood to the side to watch the spectacle.

Xiao Bao shouted the count, "One! Two! Three! Lift!"

All the little children followed his command, lifting together.

Unfortunately, even the oldest among them were no older than twelve years, and most were only three or four years old, hardly strong enough. How could they lift a gate that weighed a thousand catties?

It was simply impossible!

But they were not discouraged and wanted to try again.

However, Wu Wei laughed, "Hahaha! I told you, you couldn't lift it, but you didn't believe me. Do you believe it now? This gate weighs at least a thousand catties, maybe even one thousand five hundred, and even my strong and muscular men here would need five or six of them to lift it. And you think a bunch of little brats like you can lift this gate? That's utterly delusional!"

All the children glared at him with anger. Xiao Bao knew he couldn't save Xiao Lan, and cursed loudly, "You big villain, you actually killed Sister Xiao Lan, you will definitely get your comeuppance!"

"I'll get my comeuppance? That's a joke! Besides, did I kill her? Who saw me do it?"

As Wu Wei spoke, he walked over to the gate, stepped on it, then jumped on the spot, landing heavily on the gate and laughed, "Hahaha! Your Sister Xiao Lan is dead, your backer Xu Hao has fallen, now who can you little brats rely on? You were all just unwanted orphans from the start, you don't deserve to live in this world! I will sell you all off, that way I can make a good sum and give my brothers big red envelopes, sweet!"

Hearing themselves being described as "kids who were unwanted from the start," the children almost all cried. The few slightly older ones had red-rimmed eyes, holding back their tears.

They were orphans, but was it really their fault for being abandoned?

What was their wrongdoing?

Was it not the fault of their biological parents?

Yet from birth, they had to endure such extreme and unfair treatment.
