brows furrowed deeply."Big Brother, how is it Can she be treated" Bai Xiaole saw Xia Tian frown and immediately felt a sense of unease. He added, "It's okay if you can't save the baby, Big Brother, bu...Chapter 1094: No One Can Mess with Me
"Do you know where that idiot is" Summer immediately became excited.
"Honey, Xu Qingshan was extremely angry when he found out that Wei Xiaotong almost got killed. So he personally investigated this matter and discovered that it really had something to do with Mr. Yi." Ning Jie quickly said: "Although we're not certain if the person is indeed Yi Zhiyan, Xu Jiaying, who is Xu Qingshan's second son, told us that a man named Mr. Yi contacted him to help take over the Xu family’s assets!"
"Oh, what about this Xu Jiaying fellow Does he know where Mr. Yi is" Summer asked.
"Honey, he doesn't know either; they've been communicating online." Ning Jie replied, then changed her tone: "But there's an opportunity now. This morning, Mr. Yi suddenly sent an email to Xu Jiaying demanding one hundred million Hong Kong dollars right away and gave him a bank account number. The police forensic team said they can track this account, but they cannot guarantee that they'll be able to locate the person through it…"
"Leave such matters to the little succubus." Before Ning Jie could finish speaking, Summer interrupted her: "My miserly wife, I’ll give a call to the little succubus and have her contact you. Then just tell her about the bank account number; she knows what to do."
"Alright, understood. Once I receive any news, I'll let you know," Ning Jie replied.
After ending the call with Ning Jie, Summer immediately phoned the little succubus. As usual, she was fast asleep, but upon hearing that yet another bank account needed hacking, she perked right up and confidently promised to handle this matter well. Even if they couldn't find out where Yi Zhiyan was, they would ensure his bank account was completely drained so he’d be as poor as a church mouse.
Although the sprite hasn't been able to help him find Easy Zhiyan yet, Xia Tian still believes in the sprite's ability. Therefore, after entrusting the matter to the sprite, he didn’t bother anymore and just waited for news from the sprite and Ning Jie.
A few minutes after settling this matter, the doorbell rang.
Xia Tian quickly went out and saw an old man standing at the door. Although he had only seen this person once before, he recognized him immediately. This old man was Tan Wei's father, Tan Xuewu. However, last time Xia Tian saw Tan Xuewu, he felt that the man hadn't reached sixty years of age yet. But now, Xia Tian felt that the man must be over seventy years old—during this short period of time, Tan Xuewu had clearly aged significantly and his hair was already completely white.
Behind Tan Xuewu stood a woman in her thirties who looked decent enough and had an acceptable figure. Her facial features resembled Tan Wei's to some extent.
"Come in, Tan Wei is inside," Xia Tian opened the door lazily and said.
Tan Xuewu hesitated but eventually just nodded his head and followed Xia Tian into the living room. Seeing Tan Wei sitting on the floor of the living room, tears immediately welled up in the old man's eyes: "Little Wei."
"Brother, what happened to you Why are you sitting on the ground" The woman quickly rushed over with a caring expression and then turned around to look at Xia Tian somewhat discontentedly, "How could you treat my brother like this in such cold weather…"
"Shut up!"
"Shut up!"
The two angry shouts were almost simultaneous, but they came from Tan Xiewu and Tan Wei respectively. As Tan Wei shouted, he forcefully pushed the woman away.
"Tan Minzhi, don’t pretend to be a good person here! Half a month ago, I went looking for you, but you treated me like a beggar and pretended not to know me!" Tan Wei glared angrily at the woman. "I’m telling you now: from this day forward, I won’t acknowledge you as my elder sister!"
Tan Minzhi’s expression changed, then she said indignantly, “Brother, how can you slander me like that When did I pretend not to know you When did I look for you”
“You can deny it now if you want, but in any case, I hope you’ll continue to act as though you don’t know me.” Tan Wei stood up from the ground at this point. “But I have to thank you—thanks to your actions, I suffered for half a month, which gave me time to think clearly and see through your true nature. Your so-called ‘dear sister’ is not even as good as that cousin of ours who has always hated our family!”
“Minzhi, did you really pretend not to know Xiao Wei” Tan Xiewu looked at Tan Minzhi and asked in a serious tone.
“Dad, he’s lying! I’ve never seen Xiao Wei before. There was once a beggar who came looking for me, but the beggar had no legs and couldn’t speak—so it definitely wasn’t Xiao Wei…” Tan Minzhi hurriedly explained.
"Before last night, I just happened to be a beggar without legs or a voice!" Tan Wei glared coldly at Tan Minzhi. "After you pretended not to know me—even as my sister—you left me with no choice but to put all my hope on that cousin of ours. I was looking for her husband around here, and fortunately enough, last night I finally met him. Although he’s only seen me a few times, he recognized me right away and called his wife—last night she healed my injuries!"
Speaking of this, Tan Wei suddenly turned around to face Xia Tian, knelt down with a thud on the ground, and bowed his head towards Xia Tian: "Brother-in-law, great kindness doesn’t need to be repaid in words. From now on, my life belongs to you; even if you order me to die, I would go without hesitation!"
"I don't want you to die for me, just hurry up and take a bath. Your smell is really unpleasant!" Xia Tian casually said.
"Yes, brother-in-law, I'll go right away." Tan Wei got up from the ground.
“Wei, here are your clothes.” Tan Xiewu handed several bags of clothes to Tan Wei.
Tan Wei took the clothes and went towards the bathroom. Meanwhile, Tan Xiewu turned his head and looked at Tan Minzhi with a solemn tone: “Minzhi, I don’t want to verify whether what Xiao Wei said is true or not right now, but you should leave first. Xiao Wei has just gone through a major ordeal; he won't wish to see you.
"Dad, I..." Tan Minzhi's face turned pale and she seemed to want to explain something.
“Leave!” Tan Xiewu suddenly roared.
Tan Minzhi’s expression changed, but with a resentful look towards Xia Tian, she reluctantly turned around and left.
"In the summer, for your and Yunqing's great kindness to me, my Tan family..." Tan Xuewu looked at Xia Tian, about to say something in gratitude.
"I already said there’s no need to thank me. If you want to show gratitude, then thank Sister Yunqing." Xia Tian interrupted Tan Xuewu; he wasn’t interested in any man's thanks. He would only be happy if Sister Yunqing came personally to thank him.
Tan Xuewu looked deeply at Xia Tian but remained silent, his heart a whirl of emotions. He never could have imagined that the person who helped them during the Tan family’s toughest times was Xia Tian and Yunqing—two people with whom they had almost no interaction.
"Oh right, Sister Yunqing told me to help you guys out, so if there are any problems you can't solve, come tell me. There's nothing in this world I can’t handle, got it" Xia Tian then spoke up on his own initiative.
"Alright, but at the moment, I still don’t know what happened to Xiao Wei." Tan Xuewu nodded and said.
"I’ll go grab breakfast. You just wait for him to finish his bath in peace," Xia Tian recalled that he hadn't eaten yet and said as he quickly left the room.
Xia Tian spent half an hour on breakfast, and when he returned, he finally saw Tan Wei had finished his bath and changed into new clothes. Now, compared to before, Tan Wei was a completely different person.
Tan Wei and Tan Xuewu were originally sitting on the sofa talking in low voices; upon seeing Xia Tian enter, Tan Wei hurriedly got up and greeted him politely: "Brother-in-law."
"Ah, who was it that beat you up so badly Do you want me to go and teach them a lesson for you" Xia Tian casually asked. He was waiting for the little fairy's message but found the wait boring, so he wanted something to do.
"Brother-in-law, it was done by the Seven Brothers gang. At that time when they were torturing me, they made it very clear to me that they had been paid by Lan Shao Gang and were retaliating against me on purpose," Tan Wei's face didn't show much anger. After sitting alone in the living room for a whole night after yesterday’s incident, he had mostly calmed down.
Pausing for a moment, Tan Wei explained: "Brother-in-law, do you remember that time when you helped me beat up those four little hoodlums One of them is Lan Shao Gang's son. Lan Shao Gang has lots of money, and his brother is the mayor of Wanggang City. As for the Seven Brothers gang, they are the biggest criminal organization in Wanggang City. We can't afford to offend people like these, so they don’t have any fear that I would find out their true identities."
"Oh, do you want me to take care of them all" Xia Tian casually asked.
"Ah" Tan Wei was stunned for a moment. Of course he wanted those people dead, but the problem was, he didn’t have that kind of ability!
“Why are you saying 'ah' If you want me to take care of them, I’ll do it for you; if not, forget about it. Anyway, they haven't messed with me.” Xia Tian said a bit unhappily.
"Brother-in-law, these people aren’t easy to deal with. I’m worried about you..." Tan Wei said softly.
Xia Tian glared at Tan Wei: "What’s the point of all that nonsense You just need to know that I am the most difficult person in this world to provoke. If I want to mess with someone, no one can stop me. Got it"e now and I don't feel like treating people. If you're here for treatment, please come back tomorrow. Oh wait, no need to come at all as I don’t want to treat anyone these days.""Doctor Song, there ha...
