As Xiao Tian Ci Lang's voice completely faded, Sun Jianguo and Lin Yi slowly approached Er Zhu.
"Er Zhu, you really scared me just now. If you were really going to protect that Japanese guy, I wouldn't have known what to do."
Lin Yi wiped the cold sweat from his face, glanced in the direction Xiao Tian Ci Lang had left, and patted Er Zhu on the shoulder.
"He's just some Japanese idiot, not worth my trouble to that extent."
Er Zhu smiled faintly, speaking as he contacted Wu Feng to handle the company's procedures.
The Xiao Tian family was a prominent Japanese clan. He was confident that this matter would reach them soon. Therefore, he had to get everything in order before the Xiao Tian family could make a move!
"Alright, we'll be going then. I'll treat you to a meal sometime."
Seeing the fleeting disdain in Er Zhu's eyes, Lin Yi and Sun Jianguo nodded with relief and prepared to leave.
"Send the packet of medicine he was holding to the hospital. If those patients don't receive timely treatment, the death toll will rise rapidly!"
Er Zhu instinctively wanted to wave goodbye to his friends but suddenly remembered something and spoke up.
"Don't worry, I'll handle this. The lives of our Chinese people are far more precious than that Japanese person's!"
As soon as Er Zhu finished speaking, Sun Jianguo replied while walking towards the door, waving his hand.
After the group left, the living room returned to its usual calm. Wang Xiaomei didn't feel anything out of the ordinary, but Xiao Tian Hui Zi, standing beside her, was stunned speechless.
This Wang Er Zhu was indeed quite capable. Not only could he save her second brother, but he also maintained close ties with government officials!
Before coming, she had thought those so-called legends were just empty talk. She never expected them to be true!
"Mr. Wang, are you always on such good terms with government officials?"
Xiao Tian Hui Zi swallowed in shock, looking at Er Zhu with wide eyes.
"Of course! Not only government officials, but Er Zhu also has close relationships with influential families and even reclusive clans!"
Before Er Zhu could speak, Wang Xiaomei stepped forward with an air of pride, elaborating on Er Zhu's powerful connections.
Hearing this, Xiao Tian Hui Zi was even more astonished. She had expected Wang Er Zhu to be strong, but she never imagined he would be this formidable!
If he could even acquire the Xu family, what else couldn't he acquire!
"Alright, let's discuss these matters later. What did you come to see me for?"
Seeing Wang Xiaomei getting more and more excited, Er Zhu waved his hand, forcefully changing the subject.
It was better not to go into too much detail about connections; that way, one could stand more firmly in the business world.
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaomei suddenly realized she had said too much. She quickly bowed to Er Zhu to apologize and sat down, remaining silent.
"It's nothing, just an introduction. I hope we can cooperate in the future."
Xiao Tian Hui Zi smiled gently, a hint of tenderness flashing in her large eyes, a blush spreading across her face.
Everything that had just happened replayed in her mind. She suddenly felt that she might be developing feelings for this extraordinary Chinese man with such extensive connections!
Looking at the simple decoration of the living room, he was likely single, wasn't he?
"Er Zhu, what just happened here?"
Just as Xiao Tian Hui Zi was about to ask, a delicate face peeked out from the upstairs corridor. Although her eyes were still heavy with sleep, her charm was undeniable!
"Yes, just a minor matter. It's getting cold, why aren't you wearing more?"
Er Zhu nodded slightly as he walked upstairs, his eyes filled with affection.
Seeing this, Wang Xiaomei felt a pang of bitterness but could only suppress her emotions, unable to reveal them.
"Xiaomei, this is Miss Hui Zi. She's a friend that Wang Xiaomei brought."
"Miss Hui Zi, this is my fiancée, Li Mei!"
Xiao Tian Hui Zi, still looking confused, heard this introduction just as she was about to inquire.
Looking at the stunningly beautiful woman before her, Xiao Tian Hui Zi felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
She had been contemplating asking Mr. Wang out, only to discover he already had a fiancée!
"Hello, Miss Hui Zi!"
Li Mei's words broke through Xiao Tian Hui Zi's reverie. Looking at the outstretched hand, then at Li Mei's smiling face, Xiao Tian Hui Zi, as if compelled, also extended her hand.
"Hello, Miss Li."
Xiao Tian Hui Zi smiled outwardly, but her heart felt as if it were being cut by knives.
Li Mei, noticing Xiao Tian Hui Zi's displeased expression and looking at Er Zhu, seemed to understand something. A surge of bitterness welled up in her heart.
At that moment, she wished she could hide Er Zhu away to prevent other beauties from taking an interest in him!
Hmm?
Er Zhu, seeing Li Mei's unhappy face, scratched the back of his head in confusion. He suddenly felt like an idiot again.
Why was she throwing a tantrum after just waking up? Women were becoming increasingly unfathomable.
"I have other matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now. I hope we can meet again soon."
As Er Zhu was contemplating, Xiao Tian Hui Zi's voice was heard. Er Zhu lowered his hand and nodded slightly.
"Er Zhu, why don't you wear sunglasses from now on? So that people don't see your infuriatingly handsome face."
After Xiao Tian Hui Zi and Wang Xiaomei left, Li Mei suddenly turned and playfully pinched Er Zhu's face, complaining.
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say."
Hearing her complaint, Er Zhu suddenly understood. He dotingly pulled Li Mei into his embrace and put on his sunglasses.
From that day on, Er Zhu always appeared in public with sunglasses on. No one, except Li Mei, knew why...
In the blink of an eye, night fell. After dinner, Li Mei, in the bathroom, gently opened a box.
Instantly, a sexy nightgown was revealed before her eyes.
With its thin straps, sheer fabric that seemed to reveal more than it hid, and a hemline that couldn't be any shorter, it was enough to make anyone, even women, blush.
Did she really have to wear this?
Li Mei took a deep breath and instinctively glanced outside the door, her brows furrowed.
She didn't want to do this, but she had heard that to maintain a relationship, one had to constantly keep things fresh. For the sake of eternal happiness with Er Zhu, she was going all out!
With that thought, Li Mei's eyes hardened with determination. She nodded and quickly took off her regular nightgown.
While Li Mei was changing, Er Zhu lay with his hands behind his head, looking up at the ceiling with a complicated expression.
What was Xiaomei doing in there? She had been in there for so long, had she fainted...
Thinking this, Er Zhu suddenly got up, ready to rush over. But just then, he heard rustling sounds from downstairs!
Someone was there!
Er Zhu quickly locked the bathroom door and slowly walked towards the entrance.
The moment he opened the door, a steel knife gleaming with cold light lunged directly towards his neck!
"Ah!"
As the steel knife thrust forward again, Er Zhu grabbed the attacker's wrist, followed by a series of pained groans.
"Who is it?"
Li Mei, who had just finished changing, heard the shout, quickly put on her original nightgown, and shouted.
But her call was met not with words, but with the sounds of a fierce fight!
