"That... well, you be busy then. I'll be going back."
After a long while, Li Mei looked at the bandaged wound, a flicker of embarrassment in her eyes. She said this and quickly left.
After all, she didn't want Er Zhu to think she was a jealous woman!
"You rest well. I'm leaving too."
Seeing Li Mei's hurried footsteps, Er Zhu also left a sentence and quickly chased after her. Only Xiao Tian Huizi was left alone in the room.
"Huizi, give up. You and Mr. Wang will have no future."
As soon as Er Zhu and Li Mei entered the room, Xiao Tian Youliang, who had seen everything from the doorway, walked into the room and looked at his daughter with concern.
His daughter had finally fallen for a man, but little did he know it wasn't a good match!
If Mr. Wang were an ordinary person, he would definitely encourage his daughter to actively pursue him, but Mr. Wang was no ordinary person!
"I know, Father. Don't worry, I won't offend Er Zhu."
Xiao Tian Huizi looked in the direction Er Zhu had left with complex emotions, her voice filled with sorrow.
She had known this outcome the first moment she met Li Mei, but she... was unwilling to give up.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed. Er Zhu and Xiao Tian Youliang signed the contract and prepared to return home.
That night, Xiao Tian Huizi reluctantly watched Er Zhu, who was applying acupuncture to her, tears welling up in her eyes. "Can't you... wait until I've fully recovered before leaving?"
Xiao Tian Huizi tentatively asked, her voice even carrying a hint of pleading.
"Your injury is already mostly healed. You only need a servant to help you change the dressing."
Er Zhu did not answer. He quickly removed the silver needles and turned to leave.
But at the moment of leaving, Xiao Tian Huizi grabbed his arm. Her hand slowly slid down, almost touching his hand...
"Miss Huizi, we are just friends!"
Just as Xiao Tian Huizi's hand was about to touch Er Zhu, he slowly spoke. Although his voice was calm, his tone was very firm!
There was even a hint of disdain!
A flicker of embarrassment and loneliness crossed Xiao Tian Huizi's eyes. She slowly lowered her hand, and the tears in her eyes condensed into actual tears. "I'm sorry, I understand now."
Er Zhu said nothing and slowly walked towards the door. When the sound of the door closing was heard, a tear slid down Xiao Tian Huizi's cheek.
They were just friends!
That sentence was like a curse, preventing her from getting any closer to Er Zhu!
She knew she had to let go, but ultimately, she couldn't!
After crying for an unknown amount of time, Xiao Tian Huizi wiped away her tears and quickly took out her phone. In an instant, Li Mei received a message from her.
"I will continue to be your bodyguard after I recover!"
Li Mei softly read the message on her phone. Although the words were ordinary, Li Mei's heart felt a pang of sadness.
As a woman, she naturally understood Xiao Tian Huizi's intentions. The reason she chose to return to Kyoto was not to be her bodyguard, but merely to stay by Er Zhu's side.
Even if Er Zhu didn't like her!
"Er Zhu, let's leave tonight."
Li Mei, somewhat angrily, threw her phone to the ground and suddenly turned to look at Er Zhu, who was packing his belongings.
"Ah? Okay." Er Zhu was stunned. Although he was a little slow to react, he still agreed.
In the quiet night, looking at the airplane in the sky, Xiao Tian Huizi sighed deeply:
Did he really hate her that much? He wouldn't even stay one more night...
The next morning, Er Zhu and Li Mei returned to Kyoto.
Just as Er Zhu was about to cultivate, Wu Feng and Lin Mo, dust-covered, walked in.
"Master, we've investigated. The company that acquired your assets is a company called Kuangmei Group!"
"Kuangmei Group is Kyoto's largest foreign-invested enterprise, mainly dealing in pharmaceutical projects. It is said that the boss behind the scenes is three top families, but the boss's identity is very mysterious, and we can't find anything out!"
Without further ado, Wu Feng and Lin Mo reported to Er Zhu one after another. Er Zhu glanced briefly at the documents Wu Feng handed over and nodded slightly.
Kuangmei Group?
In just one year, it had grown from a small company worth a few million to a super conglomerate with a market value of one trillion!
As expected of top families, their strength was immense!
"I understand. Keep a close eye on their movements and report any abnormalities promptly."
Wu Feng and Lin Mo wanted to say something more, but Er Zhu had already handed the documents back to them, appearing indifferent.
"Master, Kuangmei Group is very strong. In just a few months, they've already acquired more than a dozen of our companies!"
"Yes, and they are multinational corporations worth tens of millions!"
Wu Feng and Lin Mo thought they hadn't explained clearly. The moment they took back the documents, they quickly added.
"Yes, I know all of this. You may go."
A flash of light appeared in Er Zhu's eyes. He instantly saw the smug looks of Liao Sheng and the other two and waved his hand.
No wonder it had been so long since they had sought revenge; it was just a diversion!
He wouldn't deign to deal with them, but since they were looking for death, he wouldn't be polite!
Er Zhu's eyes flickered, and he quickly picked up his phone and started operating it frantically.
At this moment, in a luxurious villa, accompanied by melodious piano music, Liao Zhong and the other two were smiling and drinking heartily.
"I heard Wang Er Zhu is back?"
Liao Zhong gently sipped his red wine, a sly smile on his face as he looked at Ito Meixin and Rolli beside him.
"So what if he's back? At this rate, we'll soon swallow all his assets!"
Rolli looked at the swirling red wine in his glass, his eyes filled with a smile.
"You... shouldn't you avenge Li Juan?"
Hearing this, Liao Zhong was stunned and looked at Rolli with some confusion.
He knew that Rolli doted on his mistress and had even given her half of his assets!
But he didn't expect Rolli to say this when he heard Er Zhu had returned!
"Just a woman. She's not worthy of me avenging her!"
Rolli curled his lips into a smile, still with that calm demeanor. Liao Zhong nodded slightly, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
He usually saw Rolli and his wife as a loving couple, thinking it was true love. He never expected that Rolli was just playing around.
"Alright, let's not talk about the dead. Are you going to find Wang Er Zhu after you acquire all his assets?"
Seeing that Liao Zhong was about to say something else, Rolli waved his hand impatiently and looked at Liao Zhong and Ito Meixin with curiosity.
Although this matter had nothing to do with him, he still wanted to watch the show. It wasn't like he had anything else to do.
"Yes, Wang Er Zhu has immense power. We cannot expose ourselves too early. We need to catch him completely off guard!"
Liao Zhong and Ito Meixin exchanged glances and then nodded heavily in response.
"Heh, a wealthy family with no foundation. There's no need to be so cautious. I think we can start with the people around him, like the Xing family!"
As soon as Liao Zhong and the other two finished speaking, Rolli snorted and looked at Liao Zhong with a wicked smile.
