Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space
Chapter 1701 You Want It
"There is a fire shining not far away. It seems that when Chen Changli came to Fulu Town, he happened to encounter the living dead." Wen Baicao narrowed his eyes and looked far ahead. He felt that the lights ahead were bright, which made people feel warm.
"Let's go there quickly. Maybe we'll be lucky enough to run into him." After a moment's pause in his breathing, Wen Baicao suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and said to Wan Shufang.
Wan Shufang couldn't wait any longer. Before Wen Baicao finished speaking, she called out to Wu Qiaoyue and the others and hurried forward.
In less than half a cup of tea, they met Chen Changli at the corner of the alley.
"It's really you. That's great." When Wan Shufang saw Chen Changli, whose breathing was rapid but face was still pale, Wen Baicao looked over her and looked Chen Changli up and down before she had time to express her emotions.
The way he looked at people was like he was examining some merchandise, which gave people goose bumps all over their bodies.
Chen Changli suppressed the disgust that was about to rush to his throat, stepped forward, passed him and came to Wan Shufang, and asked with concern: "Were the living dead in Fulu Town created by Chang Xuewei? How are you and Qiao Yue? Do you want to go directly to Yongzhou City?"
When Wan Shufang heard this, she quickly asked, "Can you arrange for someone to leave here?"
Chen Changli nodded: "When Han Yi and I arrived in Fulu Town, we encountered a group of living dead people killing the people."
"We worked together to rescue some people, but we found that the zombies kept coming. So we controlled the entire North City and asked a group of young people to take the elderly and children away first, while the rest of us burned fires to restrain the zombies."
When Wan Shufang heard this, she was about to talk to him about the living dead, but Wen Baicao suddenly said, "You guys are able to do so well because of the Phoenix Gu in your body."
"Is this the time to talk about this?" When Wan Shufang heard his words, her heart skipped a beat and a strong sense of vigilance lingered between her brows.
Wen Baicao stroked his beard and smiled, "Wan Shufang, the people of Fulu Town are still waiting to be rescued, so I must clarify the matter of Phoenix Gu now, otherwise you two have discussed it privately, and I will be tricked by you, right?"
"People with dirty minds find fault with everything they see." Chen Changli said bluntly.
Wen Baicao looked innocent: "I just want to survive, what's wrong with that?"
"It's not wrong to want to live, but you have a desire to use me." Wan Shufang said in a heavy tone, "Manager Wen, the problem of the living dead has not been completely solved. If you turn against me now, wouldn't you drag our family down and die here with you?"
"Don't be too selfish." When Wang Xiaohui heard what Wan Shufang and the others said, she immediately realized that Wen Baicao had bad intentions.
"Selfishness is human nature." Wen Baicao was slightly stunned, with a flash of surprise in his eyes. After a moment, he stared at Wang Xiaohui with burning eyes, "Otherwise, how could you and your two sisters-in-law have so many conflicts before you arrived in the capital."
Wang Xiaohui's face changed slightly, and Wu Qiaoyue and Bai Lian felt embarrassed when they thought about the past.
Wan Shufang immediately interrupted their embarrassment and said, "They have grown up, why are you still talking about the past? But how do you know so much about our affairs? Are you always paying attention to us?"
After hearing these words, Wu Qiaoyue and the others felt their scalps tingling and they felt very uneasy.
They stared at Wen Baicao warily, their throats rolling slightly, but they didn't say a word.
Wen Baicao smiled frankly and said, "I am a businessman. It is normal for a businessman to be well-informed. Isn't it the same for you?"
When Wan Shufang heard this, she knew he was talking about their medicinal materials and restaurant business.
She had indeed used the restaurant business to find out a lot of information before, but she would never be like Wen Baicao who kept a close eye on people's privacy.
"People with different ideals cannot work together." Wan Shufang did not refute directly, but said something just right.
Chen Changli agreed: "Manager Wen, we were not on the same page from the beginning, but I thought that in a life-and-death crisis, we could get along peacefully. But now after listening to your words, I feel that I took all this for granted."
Wen Baicao showed a helpless smile on her face: "Are you blaming me? I admit that I have a lot on my mind, but you two are not trustworthy. What's wrong with me thinking a little more?"
Chen Changli listened to his ridicule, his eyes surging with flaming anger, but his tone was as calm as ever: "Under the circumstances at this moment, no one can be wrong."
When Wen Baicao heard this, he suddenly didn't know what to say. He could only stare at Chen Changli. Facing his unusually cold eyes, he coughed helplessly and said, "I don't believe that the Phoenix Gu can make people immortal, but it can surpass the living dead. This makes me think about it."
"You want it." Chen Changli's face was calm and his tone was firm, "However, there are many people who want it in this world, and you are not the only one, so you have to show your sincerity instead of trying to scheme against me."
Wen Baicao looked puzzled: "I just had this thought, but I didn't do anything. Why are you so alert? Did the Eighth Prince or the Ninth Prince do something to you that made you so alert?"
"I'm afraid the two princes have received the news of my visit to Fulu Town. I don't know what their plans are, but I think once the matter of the living dead gets out, they will definitely target me like you did." Chen Changli said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Wan Shufang made the final decision: "The fact that Chen Changli appeared in front of us proves that the Phoenix Gu has miraculous effects, but we are all trapped here. Instead of fighting among ourselves, we might as well join forces to solve the problem at hand."
"My wife is absolutely right, Manager Wen, you have to be calm and not make things difficult for others." Chen Changli quickly agreed.
Wen Baicao said firmly, "When this is over, you have to give me the Phoenix Gu."
Wan Shufang was infuriated by this and wanted to mock Chen Changli in return, but Chen Changli said, "I promise you."
"How could you agree to him?" Wan Shufang was shocked and looked at Chen Changli in disbelief.
Using his eyes to calm Wan Shufang, Chen Changli said to Wen Baicao: "But I have a request, I hope you can agree to it."
Wen Baicao looked at Chen Changli deeply and nodded, "As long as my life is not endangered, I will agree to whatever you ask for."
"I need to research the antidote for the Phoenix Gu before I can give it to you." Chen Changli said calmly.
Wen Baicao's face turned green: "You know why I want it, but you put forward such a condition. Do you want to tear your face with me?"
Chen Changli shook his head and sighed: "That's all I ask, please consider it."
Hearing that there was no room for maneuver in his tone, Wen Baicao pretended to be furious and said, "Chen Changli, don't push your luck."
