Yu Ke was filled with confusion at this moment, unable to comprehend how people from two seemingly different worlds could suddenly cross paths.
In her impression, Li Chonglou, while a master, should still have had a gap compared to individuals like Old Master Yang's son, as his expertise primarily lay in antiques.
Yet, now, according to Huang Zigang, it was Li Ge who had injured Old Master Yang's son?
Huang Zigang offered no explanation for her doubts, and in truth, he dared not. To reveal the truth would immediately expose his act of stalking her, an awkward situation that would be unavoidable.
"You don't need to worry too much about the specifics; I'm not entirely clear myself." Perhaps fearing Yu Ke's further inquiries, Huang Zigang steered the conversation directly to the point: "Why don't you give me his contact information?"
Yu Ke looked at Huang Zigang with suspicion, sensing that he was withholding something from her.
"That won't be necessary. I'll ask for details first, and if it's true, I'll speak with him then."
After speaking, Yu Ke attempted to close the door, but Huang Zigang blocked it.
"Don't you want to see me? I am, after all, nominally your..."
"Shut up! That will never happen, so give up on that idea!"
Bang! The door was slammed shut heavily. Yu Ke's once pleasant mood was utterly ruined. She detested it when people brought up that matter, especially the person involved!
Hmph, don't think I don't know what kind of person you, Huang Zigang, are! Yu Ke would rather remain single her entire life than marry you!
With a touch of anger, Yu Ke walked back to the sofa and immediately dialed Li Chonglou's number.
Outside the door, Huang Zigang's face was ashen. Since childhood, there was rarely a woman he desired whom he couldn't obtain. He had never lacked women fawning over him. In his eyes, Yu Ke's beauty wasn't even considered top-tier!
Yet, now, she repeatedly treated him with disdain!
If Yu Ke's bodyguard wasn't standing by, he would have likely lost his temper already!
"Young Master Huang, this way please."
Huang Zigang turned and left with a grim expression. However, once outside the residential complex, he did not depart. Instead, he rented a place nearby. Although Yu Ke had agreed to speak with Li Chonglou, Old Master Yang's instruction was to meet the person in person, so he had to ensure this matter was settled.
Until it was resolved, he dared not leave...
Meanwhile, on the other side, Li Chonglou had only recently returned to his residence when he received Yu Ke's call.
"Old Master Yang?"
Yu Ke began by asking if he had injured Old Master Yang's son, which completely bewildered him.
However, Li Chonglou quickly realized what was happening. After all, he had only had an altercation with someone that day. He proceeded to briefly recount what had transpired.
"You mean Huang Zigang sent people to ambush you?"
"Yes."
"That detestable fellow! No wonder he came to tell me all this; he was afraid Old Master Yang would hold him accountable! And he was stalking me?"
Yu Ke finally understood the situation and became furious. However, she soon grasped another point.
Regardless of the process, the outcome was that Old Master Yang wanted to see Li Ge, and that was the crucial matter.
With this thought, Yu Ke suppressed her emotions, as anger wouldn't solve anything at that moment.
"So, what do we do now? Old Master Yang is no ordinary person; he's an elder in the Capital's Martial Arts Association..."
Li Chonglou's eyes narrowed slightly. He then asked Yu Ke to explain everything about Old Master Yang and the Martial Arts Association.
In addition to this, Yu Ke specifically warned him that Old Master Yang had considerable influence in the Capital, and ignoring him could lead to more trouble.
However, upon hearing about influence, Li Chonglou became even more composed.
"How about this, give me his contact information. I'll go meet him."
"This... I don't have it. Wait a moment."
Yu Ke hung up the phone and was about to rush out. Having realized the situation, she believed Huang Zigang would still be nearby, and perhaps her bodyguard would know his whereabouts.
However, after taking just two steps, she suddenly stopped.
"That's not right. Given Old Master Yang's temperament, Li Ge would definitely be at a disadvantage if he met him! Perhaps even..."
At this moment, she finally recalled the various rumors about Yang Dongtian.
Legend had it that when Yang Guang was thirteen, after being bullied by a disciple of a powerful family, Yang Dongtian proceeded to beat up the entire family of that disciple the very next morning!
Except for children under one year old and the elderly over eighty, no one was spared!
The most severely injured person had been hospitalized for three months before he could barely get out of bed!
And this was just an insignificant detail in his otherwise extensive and notorious life!
His deeds in his younger days were even more terrifyingly dark.
He had massacred bandits, annihilated the families of his enemies. If not for his equally brilliant accomplishments, he would either still be serving time in prison or would have already been reincarnated.
It was precisely because of this that Yu Ke became even more anxious upon thinking about it.
"No! I can't let Li Ge meet Old Master Yang!"
With this resolved, Yu Ke immediately returned to her room, changed her clothes, and then hurried out.
She didn't need to ask Huang Zigang for Yang Guang's hospital location. It was a given; the best and most expensive hospital nearby was surely where he would be!
Upon arriving at the hospital, Yu Ke first approached the front desk to inquire. After about ten minutes, she finally found Yang Dongtian in a hospital room.
"You're the Yu family's girl?"
Yang Dongtian recognized Yu Ke, his eyes filled with confusion. He had no prior dealings with the Yu family and couldn't understand why she would be here.
Could she be fond of my son?
Yang Dongtian's eyes suddenly lit up, and his gaze towards Yu Ke instantly changed. Upon closer observation, he also realized that Yu Ke possessed a rare and excellent constitution!
As the saying goes, behind every successful man stands a good woman. This saying was no exception in the martial arts world.
At least, Yang Dongtian knew that there were women in this world with constitutions that were exceptionally beneficial to their partners. This wasn't referring to mystical matters; it was quite straightforward.
The constitution of some women could allow men to cultivate internal energy during their interactions!
In other words, another common saying described them as having a "furnace" physique!
Looking at Yu Ke at this moment, Yang Dongtian was about seventy percent certain she possessed such a constitution!
If this were twenty years ago, he would have acted personally. But now, as he was older, he had placed all his hopes on his son. Therefore, his gaze upon seeing Yu Ke instantly transformed into that of an elder viewing a potential daughter-in-law.
