Stealing the Pen: Kirin's Primordial Lotus

Chapter 616



Chapter 616

After Wu Xie came out of the hospital, he slowly stood at the hospital entrance, as if the whole world had stopped at this moment. He raised his head slightly and stared at the sky of Yanjing. The vast and blue sky seemed to be able to accommodate everything.

"It's the same sky, so why do we see different scenery?" Wu Xie murmured softly, his voice echoing in the air with a hint of confusion and puzzlement.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in his ears, as if it came from another world.

"Perhaps it's because you're suppressing things in your heart, so the sky you see is different from ours."

Wu Xie snapped back to his senses, staring in astonishment at the man who had appeared beside him. The man's sudden appearance caught Wu Xie off guard.

The man seemed to realize his abruptness and quickly explained, "I'm sorry, I just saw that you seemed to be in a bad mood, so I interrupted you rashly."

Wu Xie's eyes were still full of vigilance. He stared at the strange man closely without relaxing at all.

Seeing this, the man took a few steps back, keeping a safe distance from Wu Xie. He smiled, trying to ease the tense atmosphere.

"Don't say that. Just think of it as a chance meeting!" The man's voice was gentle and kind. He pointed around and said, "Look, someone has noticed us. How about we talk somewhere else?"

However, Wu Xie had no interest in the man's proposal. He responded coldly, "I have nothing to talk about with you!" After that, he turned around and was about to leave, as if the man did not exist at all.

Wu Xie sat in the car, staring through the window at the strange man still standing at the hospital entrance. His brows furrowed slightly, and a feeling of doubt and uneasiness welled up in his heart.

Who was that man? Why was he here? Wu Xie's intuition told him that this man's appearance was no accident.

"Find someone to check his background." Wu Xie said to the driver, with a hint of seriousness in his voice.

The driver had actually noticed the man a while ago. He quickly took a photo of the man and sent it to others. Hearing Wu Xie's instructions, the driver quickly responded, "Don't worry, Third Master. I've already asked someone to investigate. I believe there will be results soon."

Wu Xie nodded, but his thoughts didn't stop. He thought about what Fatty had said to him: 'I look fine, but the doctor won't let me leave the hospital.' He became increasingly worried.

"Send someone to ask Fatty what's wrong with him and whether he can go home to recuperate or be transferred to another hospital?" Wu Xie continued, "This person wouldn't appear here for no reason. I'm worried that Fatty's condition may be more complicated than we thought."

Wu Xie's heart was filled with doubts, and he couldn't help but think of the ugly human nature he had experienced. He knew that in this world, some people would do anything to achieve their goals, and the fat man's illness might be a breakthrough for them.

The driver immediately understood Wu Xie's concerns. He quickly arranged for another person to find out about the fat man's condition and provide timely feedback on the relevant information.

Wu Xie sat in the car, quietly waiting for news. His heart grew heavier, not knowing what the outcome would be.

"Don't worry, Third Master, I'll have the brothers take care of it in a moment," the driver said confidently. He knew all too well how worried Wu Xie was, so after dropping him off at the Hua Residence, he immediately dispatched his men to deal with Fatty Wang's affairs, ensuring everything was properly arranged.

Wu Xie got out of the car and stepped into the gate of the Hua Mansion. He was greeted by the Hua Mansion's housekeeper. He walked up to him quickly and said to Wu Xie with a smile, "Master Wu, my surname is Xu, the Xu of Shuangrenyu. His Highness has given your room a quick order and has sent someone to clean it. Your luggage has been put in the room. Do you want to wash up before eating, or wash up after eating?"

Wu Xie glanced at Uncle Xu gratefully, thinking that the service at Hua Mansion was truly attentive. After a moment's thought, he replied, "Uncle Xu, I'm planning to rest for a bit before washing up. Could you please tell the kitchen to prepare some food for me later?" Wu Xie was exhausted from the day's travels, and all he wanted was to get into bed and rest.

Uncle Xu nodded quickly and said, "Okay, Master Wu, I'll make the arrangements right away." He then called over a servant and instructed, "Take Master Wu to his courtyard."

The servant responded respectfully, then gestured to Wu Xie, saying, "Young Master Wu, please come this way!" Wu Xie followed the servant and slowly walked through the small garden of the Hua Mansion. Along the way, he admired the beautiful scenery in the garden and gradually relaxed.

After passing through the small garden, Wu Xie arrived at a secluded spot. It was a quiet place, surrounded by green trees and very peaceful. A servant stopped in front of a courtyard and said to Wu Xie, "Master Wu, this is your courtyard."
