Chapter 433: Chapter 433: You Want to Kill Me? (1st Update)
As night fell, the bright moon hung in the sky, illuminating the artificial lake within Green Water Manor.
Though it was an artificial lake, it spanned over a dozen acres. Under the moonlight, the surface shimmered, and a small yacht cruised on the lake.
Inside the yacht’s cabin, Wen Xiaojun sat on the sofa, elegantly sipping a glass of red wine.
“Cousin, I didn’t expect you to be in such good spirits to come for a lake cruise,” Song Haoyu said, holding a glass of red wine, looking at Wen Xiaojun flatteringly.
Wen Xiaojun gazed out at the moonlit lake through the yacht’s window and nodded, “With such a fine moonlit night, it would be a shame to miss this beautiful scenery.”
Saying this, Wen Xiaojun downed his glass of red wine in one go.
Afterward, he set the empty wine glass on the table and took out his phone to make a call.
“Hello, Chen Feng, are you almost at Green Water Manor?”
“Young Master, I’m taking Miss Liu and have just left the underground parking of Golden Dragon Building. We’ll arrive at Green Water Manor in half an hour,” a man’s voice came through the phone.
“Wait for me at the usual spot when you get to Green Water Manor.”
“Understood.”
Wen Xiaojun hung up the phone after speaking.
Song Haoyu picked up a bottle of red wine from the table, intending to pour for his cousin.
But Wen Xiaojun stopped him, smiling, “No more, cousin, I have other matters to attend to.”
Song Haoyu looked puzzled, “Weren’t you here for a lake trip, cousin? What else is there?”
Wen Xiaojun’s face bore a mysterious smile as he said, “Cruising the lake is just part of it. I have another important thing to do.”
Song Haoyu was left astonished, unsure what this important thing could be.
At that moment, the middle-aged yacht driver called out to Wen Xiaojun, “Young Master, we’ve reached the southern lakeshore.”
The southern lakeshore?
Song Haoyu grew more curious: What is his cousin doing at the southern lakeshore? Could it be related to the important thing he mentioned?
Wen Xiaojun glanced out the window, noting they were seven or eight meters from the shore, and said to the driver, “Master Liu, stop the yacht here!”
“Yes, Young Master.”
Then, Wen Xiaojun stood up from the sofa, stepping up to the upper deck of the yacht.
Song Haoyu followed him onto the deck, looking at his cousin and asking, “Cousin, do you need my help for what you’re going ashore for?”
Wen Xiaojun shook his head, “No need, take the yacht back.”
With that, Wen Xiaojun turned, suddenly leaping from the yacht deck, soaring away under the moonlight like an eagle with spread wings.
Song Haoyu was shocked: Is his cousin jumping into the lake?
But to Song Haoyu’s surprise, Wen Xiaojun didn’t land in the lake. Instead, he lightly tapped the water with his feet, skimming across like a dragonfly, and then leapt again.
Under the moonlight, the mirror-like lake surface rippled as Wen Xiaojun skimmed across, rising and falling like an immortal, landing on the shore in the blink of an eye.
Song Haoyu was left dumbfounded: No wonder his cousin is known in Shencheng as the youngest martial arts Grandmaster!
Simply gliding over the waves was a supreme martial art; how many could compare?
Once Wen Xiaojun reached the shore, his figure disappeared into the darkness.
The yacht turned around and sailed away…
A few dozen meters from where Wen Xiaojun landed, there was a lakeside villa.
The villa was enormous with high walls, trees inside shading a private garden, swimming pool, and a sprawling courtyard patrolled by guards.
An opulent three-story European-style villa stood between the lights and trees.
This luxurious villa with gardens and a swimming pool was Liu Xuan’s mansion at Green Water Manor.
At this moment, on the third floor of the villa, Liu Xuan lay in bed inside a bedroom.
The villa’s housekeeper had just escorted the private doctor out of the bedroom.
Then, the housekeeper returned to the bedroom, approaching Liu Xuan’s bedside where Liu Gang stood, and said to the pale and lethargic Liu Xuan in the bed, “Young Master, Dr. Huang said you’ve suffered internal injuries, with damage to the liver meridians. You’ll need a month of good rest before you can be on your feet.”
Liu Xuan weakly nodded, “Hmm… I understand.”
“Dr. Huang prescribed Western medicine, and additionally some Chinese medicine. The servants are already brewing the medicine; Young Master, please take the Western medicine first.” The housekeeper picked up the prescribed medicine from the bedside table, holding a glass of water for Liu Xuan.
Liu Gang then helped Liu Xuan sit up to take the medicine handed by the housekeeper, who brought the glass to his lips.
After Liu Xuan took the medicine, Liu Gang helped him lie down again.
“Liu Gang, Housekeeper Zhang, you both may leave. I want to rest well,” Liu Xuan said weakly to Liu Gang and the housekeeper.
“Yes, Young Master.” Liu Gang and the housekeeper left the bedroom.
Liu Xuan closed his eyes but still harbored an irrepressible anger in his heart.
He, a dignified young master from the Capital City’s elite, was severely injured by an upstart without a background, forced to bed for a month.
If this gets out, won’t it be a laughingstock among Capital City’s elite?
Liu Xuan was seething with rage!
He thought he must summon those old monsters from the Capital City to the Liu family to alleviate this grudge; otherwise, he couldn’t calm his anger.
At that moment, outside, clouds obscured the moon, casting darkness over the earth.
But the clouds quickly drifted past, and the moon once again shone on the villa courtyard.
At this moment, outside the small balcony of Liu Xuan’s third-floor bedroom, a shadow appeared.
This shadow flickered and entered the bedroom.
Liu Xuan sensed someone entering his bedroom and immediately opened his eyes.
“Is that… Young Master Wen from the Wen family?” Liu Xuan, looking at Wen Xiaojun who appeared at his bedside like a ghost, spoke with a hint of surprise.
Wen Xiaojun smiled slightly, “Young Master Liu, I heard you were injured, so I came to see how you were.”
Liu Xuan thought to himself: He didn’t hear the door open just now; could Wen have come in from the balcony?
Not entering through the main door but from the balcony instead.
Moreover, the Liu family and Wen family have had no contact. Liu Xuan felt Wen Xiaojun’s sudden appearance in his bedroom possibly meant no good?
Liu Xuan remained cautious internally, though his face wore a smile as he said, “Young Master Wen, so considerate of you. I’ll ask the housekeeper to bring tea.”
Saying this, Liu Xuan reached to ring the bedside bell.
But before his hand could press the bell’s button, abruptly, Wen Xiaojun grabbed Liu Xuan’s wrist.
A look of shock crossed Liu Xuan’s face as he asked, “Young Master Wen, what is the meaning of this? I was just calling the housekeeper to bring tea.”
“Young Master Liu, you want to call someone? No need to be afraid, it was Lin Fei who injured you, not me,” Wen Xiaojun’s smile sent a chill down Liu Xuan’s spine.
“What do you really intend to do?” Liu Xuan’s eyes fixated on Wen Xiaojun as he asked.
Wen Xiaojun said, “Young Master Liu, I’m here to send you on your way. Once you’re gone, the Wen family will take over the Deep Bay real estate project, and I’ll take care of Liu Wei.”
Upon hearing this, Liu Xuan sensed a bad omen, “Do you intend to kill me?”
Wen Xiaojun shook his head, “No, to be precise, it was Lin Fei who killed you.”
