Wu Jing's face instantly fell, and she looked at Er Zhu in disbelief.
She had thought that after the last incident, she and Er Zhu were friends, but she never expected that in Er Zhu's eyes, she was just a patient.
A hint of loneliness flashed in Wu Jing's eyes, and she slowly put on her clothes and sat up: "Everyone, please don't argue, Mr. Wang is just treating my illness."
Listening to the increasingly loud arguments, Wu Jing lowered her head, her eyes teary, and explained again.
Although her heart ached, and although she wanted to question Er Zhu, her good upbringing did not allow her to do so.
Anyway, her illness wasn't cured yet, and she had plenty of opportunities to spend time with Er Zhu. She was sure she could win Mr. Wang's heart.
Secretly wiping away her tears, Wu Jing smiled at Wang Xiaomei and the others. At this moment, Wang Xiaomei and the others' anger had subsided considerably.
It wasn't that they were naturally good-tempered, but they had already noticed a trace of impatience flashing in Er Zhu's eyes. Even if they were jealous, they didn't dare to lose their temper.
"Mr. Wang, I'll be going then. It's so late, I've disturbed you."
Seeing that Wang Xiaomei and the others said nothing more, she quickly put on her clothes and left Er Zhu's villa.
"Er Zhu, my head really hurts. Can you give me acupuncture?"
"Er Zhu, my back hurts!"
"Er Zhu, I feel weak all over..."
...
As Wu Jing reached the door, she heard the women's pitiful pleas from inside the room. Her peripheral vision caught sight of Wang Xiaomei and the others surrounding Er Zhu, with one of them almost leaning into Er Zhu's arms!
Wu Jing's nose twitched, and she suppressed her tears, leaving quickly. If she wanted to be with Mr. Wang, she still had a long way to go!
On the other side, Lin Mo and Wu Feng looked at Er Zhu, who was surrounded by beauties, with envy in their eyes.
These women were all the cream of the crop among the wealthy heiresses. Forget so many, even just one would be worth dying for!
But their elder brother didn't want any of them. If they didn't know his thoughts, they would have thought he wasn't interested in women.
"Alright, Lin Mo, stop looking. Let's just stay here and guard. Maybe tonight will be the night."
Seeing that Er Zhu hadn't spoken, Wu Feng thought Er Zhu had the same idea. He patted Lin Mo on the shoulder, his envy even greater.
Tsk tsk, it's great to be a big shot, with soft and warm company, unlike them, who have been single since birth for over twenty years...
Lin Mo glanced at the 'best match' and was about to say something when Er Zhu's voice suddenly came:
"Alright, if there's nothing else, everyone leave. I have things to do!"
Facing the women's attempts to embrace him, Er Zhu wasn't happy at all, but rather angry and impatient!
What he needed to do now was not to indulge in a bed of roses, but to get rich quickly. Kyoto lay ahead!
"Er Zhu, don't be angry. We were just joking. I actually came to give you the profit report."
"Mmm, I also have business to discuss with you."
"Brother Er Zhu, I want to continue my studies at your school. Can I?"
Seeing Er Zhu's face growing uglier, Wang Xiaomei and the others quickly straightened up and earnestly discussed business.
"Of course, but the school hasn't opened yet. I'll arrange it when it opens."
Er Zhu ignored Wang Xiaomei and Liu Yan. He only nodded to Wang Xiaofeng. Wang Xiaofeng, having received an answer, didn't dare to linger and quickly found an excuse to leave.
"Then I'll be going too. Er Zhu, get some rest." After Wang Xiaofeng left, the atmosphere in the room became somewhat awkward. Liu Yan placed the report on the table and quickly left.
"Er Zhu, I heard you've invested in a hospital recently. Can you include me?"
After Liu Yan left, Wang Xiaomei also earnestly stated her intentions and even brought a contract.
As Er Zhu's admirer, she naturally knew about all of Er Zhu's investments. She had originally planned to go to the Lin family that day, but couldn't due to other commitments.
"Not this time." Er Zhu refused directly without even looking at the contract. Hearing this answer, Wang Xiaomei was very disappointed.
If Wang Xiaomei partnered with others, they would be ecstatic, not to mention refusing, they would agree to any terms. But when it came to Er Zhu, Wang Xiaomei was helpless...
"Alright, but promise me you'll tell me first next time you do something, okay?"
After a long while, Wang Xiaomei nodded slightly. Suddenly, as if thinking of something, she cautiously tested.
"Let's go." Er Zhu ignored her and simply waved his hand. Wang Xiaomei was even more disappointed, but she could only endure it.
After Wang Xiaomei left, Er Zhu was the only one left in the vast villa. He took a deep breath and sat on the floor to cultivate.
Instantly, all the spiritual energy within a kilometer radius converged towards Er Zhu, and the Yuan Pei Pearl in his body slowly rotated.
After cultivating for so many days, although his strength had increased, the Yuan Pei Pearl had not changed at all. Now was the perfect opportunity to cultivate it.
As wisps of true qi entered his dantian, the Yuan Pei Pearl spun faster and faster, and a silver-white spiritual light seemed to emanate from his body!
The spiritual light grew brighter and brighter, and finally, it even pierced through his abdomen!
Er Zhu took a deep breath, and the spiritual light on his abdomen gradually receded, while the spiritual light from the Yuan Pei Pearl increased. After cultivating for a whole night, its volume had doubled!
Accompanied by the sound of waves, Er Zhu slowly opened his eyes. Looking at himself in the mirror, he suddenly felt that his appearance had changed!
It wasn't a change in his features, but in his temperament and gaze. His temperament became more composed and steady, and his gaze became more mysterious!
After performing the last finishing move, Er Zhu stood up. Just then, he felt a strong killing intent!
Someone else had arrived!
Swish...
An arrow grazed his ear. Er Zhu instinctively caught the arrowhead. At that moment, several bodyguards rushed over. The one at the forefront was none other than the second young master of the Lu family, Lu Zhihe!
"Hahaha, brat, you're dead for sure this time!"
Lu Zhihe looked at Er Zhu and the black arrowhead in his hand, and let out a long laugh, his eyes full of mockery.
He had long since coated the arrowhead with poison. As long as even a drop touched someone, the poisoned person would surely die!
Furthermore, it would be undetectable!
"Brat, this poison is different from ordinary poisons. The police will only detect that you died of cardiac arrest!"
Lu Zhihe was about to say more when Lu Xiaoxiao also walked over, her body swaying. Her eyes were filled with ferocity!
"Upstart, this is the consequence of offending my Lu family. Remember in your next life, never offend the noble families!"
Seeing that Er Zhu hadn't spoken, Lu Zhihe thought he was deeply poisoned. While mocking him, he waved his hand, and all the bodyguards immediately surrounded Er Zhu.
