Seeing Yang Xiao actually dare to leave, He Fei was so angry her eyes turned red: “If you dare to leave today, I’ll make sure you can’t mix in Sichuan!”
Ke Yangxiao acted as if he hadn't heard her at all, directly opened the door and left without a word.
Now, the Empress was even more furious. She immediately started searching for her phone: "He's just a fortune teller! I want to see how tough his bones are..."
—Slap!
Before He Fei could make the call, He Hongbo got up and slapped her across the face, sending her phone flying.
This slap came too suddenly, even He Yi was stunned: "Dad"
Ge Fei was stunned for a long time, and after a while she came to her senses, slowly looking at Ge Honghuo, her eyes full of disbelief: "Dad, you hit me"
From a young age, He Fei had a bad temper, but He Hongbo never raised his hand to his child.
Even though He Hongbo was often contradicted by He Fei in the past, he could only helplessly yield.
After all, because of his negligence, these children lost their mothers, and he has always felt guilty towards them.
This was the first time, as far as He Fei could remember, that Uncle He Hong had ever laid a hand on her.
But He Hongbo didn't show any remorse. He glared at He Fei with a look of exasperation: "Don't you know that Mr. Yang came to help me this time solely because of the ghost ginseng Otherwise, do you think someone like him could be invited by me just because I wanted him Attacking him is like wanting to die faster!"
Before, Si Shu had reminded He Hongbo that people like Yang Xiao, even if they couldn't be brought under their control in the end, should never be made enemies of.
When the Empress dowager arrived, she not only doubted Yang Xiao's abilities but also repeatedly found trouble for him.
If Yang Xiao hadn't taken the Ghost Ginseng and kept his promise, he would have left long ago!
Ge Fei regained her senses from the shock of being beaten and looked at He Hongbo's eyes filled with disbelief: "Just a ghost ginseng, how much can it be worth A few million Tens of millions Even if it's one hundred million, what does it mean to our family You actually beat me for such a person!"
He Hongbo's face turned red with anger, his veins bulging. If it weren't for the fact that his daughter was being tormented by a fox demon right now, he would have slapped her twice more.
"You should also know that Yang Xiao is not just a yin-yang master, he is also Chen Wanshan's benefactor. He has close ties with Li Chaosheng, Huang Chengxuan, and even Dong Chengjian. A hundred million isn't much to you, but do you think that if he opened his mouth, many people would line up to give him this hundred million"
Upon hearing this, Consort He was stunned. She had never expected that Yang Xiao would have so many connections behind him.
In her eyes, while Yang Xiao had some skill, there was always an insurmountable class difference between them.
If he could be bought with money, then to Lady He, he wouldn't be worth a single copper.
Could someone like Chen Wangshan, who has connections to such powerful people, really be hired with just money
"If it weren't for the fact that he urgently needed this ghost ginseng to save someone, I doubt I could have even persuaded him to come. But you, you… ah!"
He Hongbo pointed at He Fei's nose, watching her face turn pale instantly. He couldn't bear to say anything more and could only grit his teeth and sit back down again.
How is that possible How could this be...
Ge Fei was a little dazed. She never expected that Yang Xiao's network of contacts would be so intricate and complex.
Just the name Chen Wangshan was enough to become a reason she couldn't move Yang Xiao. Intimidation was impossible, and temptation...Yang Xiao simply didn't lack anything!
She collapsed onto the sofa with a thud, her face clouded with confusion.
Prior to this, she had always believed that all it took was money and a bit of coercion. Even if Yang Xiao had any grievances, he would have to help her.
Now...
"It's over..."
……
After leaving the hotel, Yang Xiao drove straight back to Chen Hao's villa. The others hadn't woken up yet, only Tu Shanmiao was sitting on the sofa painting her nails.
Hearing the sound of him coming in, Tu Shanmiao wasn't surprised at all: "Did it happen"
As you expected,” Yang Xiao sat on the sofa all night, rubbing his temples: “I estimate that He Hongbo's people will find it difficult to find Li Qingyu.”
After learning about Li Qingyu's connection to the fox demon lineage, Tu Shan Miao immediately obtained her detailed information that day, much of which was inaccessible to outsiders.
Li Qingyu's married family was extraordinary. Her husband being a member of the red lineage directly established her position in the entertainment circle.
And she also has that Fox Demon Lady behind her, who is said to be the most satisfied disciple of the Fox Demon Lady in recent years.
Not only is he loyal, but also very capable.
This is also why she dared to attack He Fei even though she knew that He Hongbo was not simple.
Once upon a time, Princess He was in M country, and the important map of the He family was also in M country. Even if Li Qingyu wanted to take action, it would be useless.
Because in the M country, that's the He family's world.
She dared to poison someone today, tomorrow she could die an unnatural death.
While in China, Li Qingyu had just married that Red Prince last year, it was a time of great success. Empress He's return to the country could be said to be walking into a trap.
The other party knew Lady He's family background, yet they still dared to make a move. That means they had calculated that Lady He couldn't do anything to them, even if Fourth Uncle truly found Li Qingyu, it would be useless.
"But how did you come back today Logically, with Princess He having a fit, Lord He Hongbo should have tried every means to keep you here" Tu Shan Miao blew on her freshly painted nails and glanced at Yang Xiao.
"Well, well, my work is done. To save Concubine He, that's a different price. But unfortunately, I don't need money right now."
Yang Xiao would never rush to take on jobs. After regaining his sight, the most important thing he wanted to do was change his fate against the heavens. As for taking jobs, that was just a side matter.
He kindly reminded him once or twice, but since he didn't listen, he won't bring it up again.
Let's wait until after it happens and then go find him. It will depend on his mood at that point.
"Afterward, they're sure to find someone else." Yang Xiao said, "Are you sure you don't want me to introduce you today"
Tu Shan Miao arrogantly flicked her head, "Those cunning fox spirits' tricks aren't something an ordinary yin-yang master can handle. No matter who they find, the other party will give her a solution, and this solution... He Fei may not be able to accept it. Besides, with you as a precedent, could they possibly find someone else"
Besides, as you said, if you rush things, people might think you're trying to deceive them. Of course, you should wait for them to come knocking on their own door...
She gave Yang Xiao a flirtatious wink and her foot slid up his leg.
Yang Xiao sighed: "Alright, you're all brothers. You can't do this."
"Humph, boring." Tushan Miao instantly retracted her flirtatious demeanor, and casually rolled her eyes at Yang Xiao.
"Alright, you better think about what to do these two days first. Empress He's in big trouble!"
Yang Xiao had grown accustomed to her ways, so he simply got up and went upstairs to rest.
At the end, a voice came from downstairs: "Thank you."Miss Chen Er.Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!The school security office was in the direction of the entrance. Meng Luo-ning and Ji Yu-zhen climbed out from over the l...
