Chapter 170: Never Missed a Shot
Chunmei was in the kitchen, making a phone call to someone.
She had no idea that Xiao Yun possessed an extraordinary Spiritual Sense, nor did she know that his Spiritual Sense was beyond human comprehension. Once he locked onto a target, even if they were separated by a street, every word spoken by anyone would reach his ears without missing a beat.
Just as she hung up the phone, a cold voice suddenly came from behind her: "Chunmei, what is your relationship with Lin Shusheng?"
Ah!
Chunmei was startled and turned around quickly. When she saw Xiao Yun suddenly appear in front of her, her face turned pale.
"I... Xiao Groom, I don't know any Lin Shusheng..." Chunmei's lips trembled uncontrollably due to her nervousness and fear.
Don't know him?
A playful smile crept onto Xiao Yun's lips.
Yet that smile carried an intimidating chill.
Xiao Yun said coldly, "Do you dare lie to me? Lin Shusheng is Tang Yan's ex-husband. Given your years working as a maid in the Tang family, you must have been here while he was studying at Mingzhu University. How can you say you don't know him?"
Under Xiao Yun's piercing gaze, Chunmei was completely flustered, her face devoid of color, and she stammered, unable to articulate her thoughts: "I... I..."
"You just called him, saying that Tang Yan is with me and that Wang Yu's paralysis has been cured by me. Am I wrong?" Xiao Yun continued.
"I'm sorry... I..." Chunmei never imagined that he could hear her conversation with Lin Shusheng so clearly.
Xiao Yun asked, "Tell me, does the incident involving Madam Tang have anything to do with you?"
"No... no, it was that... that person with the surname Lin who asked others to do it, it has nothing to do with me..." Chunmei said, nearly crying.
Xiao Yun looked at her and felt a bit sorry for her. He guessed that her actions might have been out of desperation, so he softened his tone and smiled, "Don't be afraid. I just want you to tell me why you are secretly helping Lin Shusheng."
"Groom—"
Chunmei suddenly knelt down, choking back tears as she said, "It's all my fault for being blinded by money! My family is poor, and my younger siblings rely on me to earn money for their college tuition. Lin Shusheng said that as long as I report on the Tang family's situation on time, he would give me an extra salary and transfer the money to my account every month... Groom, the two elders of the Tang family treat me like their own daughter. I am forced by life; please don't tell them about this..."
Seeing that she didn't seem to be lying, Xiao Yun nodded out of sympathy and said, "Alright, I won't mention this. Just don't have any more contact with that person named Lin. If you encounter any difficulties, you can come to me for help. Do you understand?"
"I understand, thank you, Groom!"
With each mention of "Groom," Xiao Yun felt elated. He patted her shoulder and said, "Okay, Chunmei, it's fine now. Go make the soup!"
As if nothing had happened, Xiao Yun walked out of the kitchen with a smile.
"Xiao Yun, what were you doing in the kitchen?" Tang Yan asked with a charming smile.
"Oh, I was just telling Chunmei to add more green onions to the soup!" Xiao Yun replied.
...
In a residence in Galaxy City.
Today was a weekend, and Lin Shusheng was not at work. He had just hung up after receiving a call from Chunmei, and his flat face darkened with anger.
That vulgar woman! Tang Yan, how dare you bring a man back to your family behind my back!
Lin Shusheng gritted his teeth in anger, wishing he could fly to Pearl City immediately and confront her.
What made him even angrier was that the person named Xiao Yun actually managed to get that woman from the Tang family to stand up from her wheelchair.
This was a very dangerous signal for him.
He knew Tang Guoqiang's character; he valued his wife more than his own life. He also understood that this old man held a deep prejudice against him. With him working in the provincial department, it would be nearly impossible for him to climb the ranks. Thus, he had no choice but to find someone to deal with Wang Yu. As expected, the situation unfolded just as he anticipated. In order to help his wife stand up from the wheelchair again, he even resigned from his position and went home to study orthopedic medicine.
He never expected that suddenly a guy named Xiao Yun would appear and actually help Wang Yu stand up from her wheelchair. This... was unscientific.
It should be noted that he had hired a skilled person; if someone were to be harmed or killed, even the Great Immortal descending would be of no help.
With Wang Yu healed, the Tang family would inevitably return to their positions, and at that point, he would become a significant obstacle in his career.
"Xiao, you bastard, you’ve taken my wife and ruined my plans. I will make sure you and that woman have a terrible end!" Imagining Xiao Yun and Tang Yan together in the Tang family, embracing each other intimately, Lin Shusheng felt his heart bleed and murderous intent surged in his eyes.
He picked up his phone and dialed a number.
After a while, a gloomy voice came through the phone: "Lin Ge, heh heh, what do you need me to do?"
"Come over to my house," Lin Shusheng said.
Half an hour later, a thin middle-aged man with a zombie-like face arrived at Lin Shusheng's home.
"Wu Xiong, I will pay you one hundred thousand yuan upfront to take care of two people. Afterward, I will give you another one hundred fifty thousand!" Lin Shusheng tossed a stack of cash in front of the man known as Wu Xiong.
Wu Xiong glanced at the stack of cash, his flesh quivering slightly.
"Lin Ge, who are the two people?" he asked.
Lin Shusheng enunciated clearly: "Tang Yan and a man!"
"What? You want to kill my sister-in-law?" Wu Xiong seemed to have a bit of a toothache, his facial muscles twitching repeatedly. Damn it, this guy is even more ruthless than I am!
Lin Shusheng's eyes were filled with increasing murderous intent. "That's right. Besides her, there's also a man named Xiao Yun!"
"Where and when will you strike?" Wu Xiong asked.
"You'll set off this afternoon, head to Pearl City, keep an eye on them, and on your way back..." Lin Shusheng provided him with the address where the Tang family lived and the license plate number of Tang Yan.
Wu Xiong nodded. "Don't worry, I can end their lives at any time!" But he thought to himself that it was probably because Tang Yan had cheated on this guy, which made him eager to get rid of them. However, Tang Yan was truly beautiful; it would be a pity to just eliminate her, heh heh...
"Wu Xiong, do you know? When you targeted Wang Yu back then, you promised me that she would spend her life in a wheelchair, but today she has been cured by that Xiao Yun and can walk like a normal person..." Lin Shusheng said coldly.
"What? That's impossible! Who is that Xiao Yun? No way..." Wu Xiong trembled at the words, his expression instantly turning ugly.
How could this be possible?
With his own sinister aura from groping and touching, he could easily cause anyone to explode or leave any woman permanently disabled. It was impossible for anyone to break that curse. Uh, who exactly is Xiao Yun?
His zombie-like face turned increasingly pale, especially his seemingly hollow eyes gradually revealing a cold and eerie green light, like a starving wolf lurking in the night for its prey. Even Lin Shusheng was taken aback by his expression.
"Brother Lin, don't worry. Since I've been walking the world on my own, I've never failed in my tasks. I'll give you a satisfactory result!" The Pinnacle of Elegance updated.
