872: Chapter 871: Are You Talking About That Person?
That evening, the dinner ended in yet another unsettled manner.
Hao Jian also cured Xia Tianjia of poison.
Even though he loathed such people, they were ultimately Yuan Shanshan’s relatives.
It was up to them to decide their fates.
The aunt had spoken too; she didn’t want her sister to hate her, so Hao Jian had no choice but to comply and detoxify this fellow.
This kind of Hundred Snake Poison is difficult to detect with current devices and instrunts since they are secret poisons developed by that faction.
Fortunately, Hao Jian had learned to treat this poison during his dical apprenticeship with his master.
Otherwise, they would’ve had to watch Xia Tianjia suffer and die from the poison.
Ultimately, Hao Jian had saved Xia Tianjia’s life, but it seed this man didn’t appreciate Hao Jian for saving him.
This was evident from the resentful look Xia Tianjia gave Hao Jian as Yuan Haocai helped him upstairs.
Hao Jian was already used to Xia Tianjia’s resentful gazes.
He shrugged at Yuan Shanshan, and felt sowhat helpless on the inside.
This person had originally intended to take his life, yet in the end, not only did he not get rid of him, but he actually saved him, which Hao Jian found deeply ironic.
After helping Xia Tianjia upstairs, Yuan Haocai ran back down to assist her son upstairs too, and during this ti, Yuan Zhibang also lent a hand.
Xia Yuanlai, who had been freed from Killing Intent earlier, could no longer hold out and had passed out, which likely prevented the situation from becoming even more chaotic.
In fact, Xia Tianjia had planned to live outside since his nesis, Hao Jian, lived in this building.
However, considering his body’s condition, he had to give up the idea and just honestly lie in bed, wiping his body with dicinal alcohol.
For a ti, the room was filled with the scent of dicinal alcohol…
“Damn it, I don’t believe I can’t kill you!”
Lying in bed, Xia Tianjia’s face twisted in displeasure.
Every ti he thought of Hao Jian’s smug face, he was filled with rage.
He wanted to smash the television in front of him, but his current physical condition prevented him from doing so.
Instead, he grabbed a water glass from the bedside table and furiously smashed it onto the floor.
“Crack!”
The crisp sound of glass echoed in the room.
However, this was not enough to satisfy Xia Tianjia.
He wanted to smash a fake flower vase too, but before he could reach for it, the door to the room suddenly opened.
“Humph!”
As his gaze shifted, Xia Tianjia saw it was his wife.
He snorted coldly, deeply upset that she kept quiet at the beginning instead of supporting him, although he knew that even if Yuan Haocai had spoken up, his beating was still inevitable.
However, he was upset that she didn’t stand by him from the start!
“Look at what you’ve done!
Do you really think that by killing them all, you can escape legal repercussions?!” Yuan Haocai’s face was stern as her guilt towards her sister deepened because of this man.
This was a matter of taking human lives!
In a society ruled by law, even if her husband was rich and powerful, publicly poisoning people and the severity of the circumstances would determine the punishnt, and for him, the death penalty was inevitable!
Yet her husband lacked such concern.
Do you really think your money is so valuable?!
With that money, you think you can cover up the facts of several human lives!?
“Humph!
I’m rich, I don’t care about those poor people’s deaths.
Worse cos to worst, I can just bribe so policen; after all, I know people there!”
Xia Tianjia snorted coldly, completely dismissing Yuan Haocai’s words.
In his view, as long as he had money, nothing was unsolvable!
“Ha, do you really think your money is worth that much?!” Seeing her husband ignoring her advice, Yuan Haocai felt very displeased and said irritably, “She is my sister!
Do you really think she would just let go of the fact that you tried to kill her?!”
“Woman’s talk, I can’t be bothered to explain!”
Xia Tianjia turned over and ignored his wife.
No matter what he said, this woman wouldn’t listen, and given his current foul mood, he didn’t want to talk anymore and simply dismissed her.
“You!”
Seeing her husband act this way, Yuan Haocai’s eyes filled with pain, then she huffed angrily and said, “I’m going to take care of our son.
Look at what you’ve turned him into!”
After saying this, she didn’t wait for Xia Tianjia’s response.
She opened the door and walked towards the room across hers, where her still-unconscious son was lying.
…………………
Early the next morning, after finishing breakfast, Hao Jian and Yuan Shanshan went out for a walk.
As for the three from the Xia family, he didn’t see them, probably because they didn’t want to show their faces and confront each other after yesterday’s incident.
From the third floor window, Xia Tianjia glanced at Hao Jian and Yuan Shanshan riding their bicycles away and snorted softly.
After a night’s rest, my body was still covered in bruises, but I felt much better.
After all, the dicine Hao Jian provided naturally works wonders.
As for these dicinal spirits, Hao Jian reluctantly went to the pharmacy to concoct them, only doing so because his aunt had told him to.
However, Xia Tianjia didn’t care about this at all.
He only thought that Hao Jian did this to ease the relationship between them, and even assud it was an act of begging for rcy.
Pulling out his phone, Xia Tianjia dialed a number, and if Hao Jian were here, he might recognize that this number belonged to one of the mbers listed by Brother Spice Ginger.
“Hello?
Is this Brother Ya?!”
“Yes, yes, yes, it’s Tianjia!
Listen, I need a favor from you…”
Upon hearing the response from the other end of the phone, Xia Tianjia’s deanor instantly turned submissive, he pressed the phone to his ear, kept bowing down as if he was actually bowing, his face displaying a respectful expression, even his tone of voice beca reverent.
Brother Ya, ntioned in his speech, is one of the overlords of Hua City, directly under Spice Ginger, who is the boss of the Mafia.
Spice Ginger is soone he couldn’t afford to confront directly.
Although Brother Ya isn’t high up in Spice Ginger’s mafia, he’s still a mafia leader with so influence.
Moreover, Xia Tianjia’s corporation pays him tribute every year as protection money.
Now it was ti for him to ask for help.
“Yeah, I’ll bring so guys over right now, just give
an address.” Brother Ya’s lazy voice ca through, with faint moans heard in the background…
“Thanks, Brother Ya, I’m in Hua City…”
Proceeding, Xia Tianjia provided Yuan Shanshan’s ho address to Brother Ya, who then dismissed the naked beauty next to him, dressed up, and left the room, leaving behind the beauty with her seductive gaze.
“Brothers!
Gather up!
We’ve got work to do!”
With a big wave of his hand and a laugh, Brother Ya strode out while his subordinates, preoccupied with various activities, stread out of the eight-story building.
A large group noisily arrived at the address given by Xia Tianjia, where he, wrapped in so bandages, had been waiting for a while.
Seeing Brother Ya appear with fifty or sixty people, he felt reassured and sneered inwardly, now let’s see what this penniless kid can do!
Being able to beat
doesn’t an you can survive fifty or sixty people!
“So, who is it that we need to beat up?!”
Upon arriving in front of Xia Tianjia, Brother Ya asked with a bit of a rogue tone, looking up.
“Right there!”
Xia Tianjia was about to say Hao Jian had gone for a walk and would be back soon, but before he could speak, he saw Hao Jian cycling towards them with Yuan Shanshan, both wearing smiles.
Behind the bicycle, Yuan Shanshan let out a tinkling laugh.
So, he quickly pointed towards Hao Jian and growled through gritted teeth.
“Oh?
Is this the man we need to deal with?
Easy!”
Since Hao Jian was still so distance away, Brother Ya couldn’t see the people clearly and made no further comnt, planning to let his boys handle it once they got closer.
After saying this, Brother Ya glanced at Xia Tianjia and sneered to himself, previously, for the sake of your regular paynts, I endured your arrogance, but seeing you beaten up by a man feels really satisfying!
Even though he mocked internally, he still had a job to do, following the rules set by Brother Spice Ginger, he wouldn’t dare break them.
However, as Hao Jian got closer, his face gradually beca clear in Brother Ya’s eyes.
Seeing the face that he had been warned not to cross even in his dreams, Brother Ya’s face instantly turned pale, pointing at Hao Jian who had noticed the scene, his lips trembling, he said: “You… you an this guy?”
“Yes, exactly!
That penniless jerk, that bastard!”
Xia Tianjia, unaware of Brother Ya’s pale face, just glared at Hao Jian, grinding his teeth.
“You scumbag!”
