After Xie Yuchen entered the residence that had been prepared in advance, he went straight to his room and never came out again.

Wu Xie and Fatty Wang watched Xie Yuchen enter the room and did not dare to say much. They could only stay in their respective rooms quietly. When it was time for dinner, they came out to eat and then returned to their rooms to continue sleeping after eating.

However, Fatty Wang was a man who could not sit still. In the middle of the night, he finally could not suppress his inner restlessness. He sneaked out of bed and tiptoed to Wu Xie's room.

At this time, it was a deep night, and everything was quiet. Wu Xie was sleeping soundly. In a daze, he suddenly felt that there seemed to be a huge black shadow standing beside the bed, standing there like a small mountain.

"Wu Xie... Wu Xie..." A faint voice echoed in Wu Xie's ears like a ghost.

"Who are you? Why are you running into my room in the middle of the night instead of sleeping? Is there anything you need here?" Wu Xie said sleepily. He turned over and stretched out his hand and waved it casually a few times.

At this moment, Wu Xie woke up suddenly and realized that he was not at home, but in a small tribe in the mountains isolated from the world!

In the middle of the night, a deafening roar was heard, waking up everyone in the residence. In an instant, chickens crowed, dogs barked, and candlelight flickered throughout the house.

With a grim face, Xie Yuchen came to Wu Xie's room surrounded by his subordinates.

"Bump it away!"

The bodyguard following Xie Yuchen was about to kick the door when it suddenly opened on its own. Because he failed to retract his legs in time, the bodyguard's kick hit the person who opened the door heavily in the abdomen.

"Ah!!!" A scream was heard, and a figure flew backwards and hit the table in the room hard, knocking the table crooked.

The person who was kicked groaned and flew backwards.

Xie Yuchen looked into the room with cold eyes and saw Fatty Wang standing inside and Wu Xie lying beside the table in the room groaning in pain.

Xie Yuchen walked into the room, and the bodyguards quickly checked the surrounding area, but did not find anything suspicious.

"Wu Xie! What are you doing in the middle of the night?" It was not until then that Xie Yuchen realized that there were only him and Fatty Wang who had run in at some point in Wu Xie's room.

"Why am I the one making trouble again! It's all because of this fat guy. He couldn't sleep in the middle of the night because of his sister Yuncai, so he ran into my room to scare me!" Wu Xie had just recovered from the shock and wanted to open the door, but was kicked out. Now he was being wronged. He could no longer suppress the anger in his heart and it burst out directly.

Xie Yuchen took a deep breath and tried to calm down his anger at being disturbed in the middle of the night. He stared at Wu Xie and said in a low voice: "Wu Xie, I hope this is the first and last time. Please control your friends and don't cause any trouble in this place and at this time."

Xie Yuchen's eyes fell on Wu Xie, who was holding his lower abdomen, sweating profusely from the pain, and his face was as pale as paper. At this moment, he was still curled up on the floor. He continued, "I will send someone to bring some ointments and potions for treating bruises and injuries. You can ask Fatty Wang to help you apply a hot towel to the bruises and then apply the ointment."

Hearing this, Wu Xie suddenly raised his head, a vicious look flashed in his eyes, and he shouted at Xie Yuchen unceremoniously: "Should I thank you too?" His tone was full of sarcasm and dissatisfaction.

After hearing what Wu Xie said, Xie Yuchen looked at him sharply, "Wu Xie, I can forgive you for your rude words this time, but if there is a next time, the Wu family may not be able to continue to bully and abuse their power in Hangzhou. And I can't say for sure what will happen to your second uncle, third uncle, grandmother and parents."

Wu Xie understood what Xie Yuchen said, and at that moment he realized that the biggest difference between him and Xie Yuchen was that he could live as he pleased without having to consider other people's feelings or thoughts. He only needed to live his life in his own way, and someone would naturally cover for him.

But he himself couldn't, because he didn't have the capital. His third uncle was a tomb robber, his grandfather was also a tomb robber, and his ancestors had been doing this for generations, so their Wu family could not see the light at all and could only live in the dark. He didn't dare to imagine what would happen if the Wu family was exposed, and what would happen to his family. Thinking of this, Wu Xie's face turned pale, and a deep fear surged in his heart.

He knew that Xie Yuchen would do what he said, and if he was really pushed into a corner, the consequences would be disastrous. Wu Xie lowered his head and said through gritted teeth, "I'm sorry, I was too impulsive just now, please forgive me."

Xie Yuchen glanced at him and said calmly, "Remember what I said, don't do it again." Then he turned and left, leaving Wu Xie alone, slumped in the same place, with a complex expression on his face, showing anger, helplessness and fear.

Seeing that Fatty Wang and the others had gone far away, Wu Xie came out from his hiding place, walked forward and helped Wu Xie, who was lying on the ground, up.

"Wu Xie, although it's a bit inappropriate for me to suddenly come to you in the middle of the night, I swear that the person standing by your bed and scaring you just now was definitely not me!"

At this time, Wu Xie finally came back to his senses. He tried to recall what he had just seen and found that the shadow standing beside the bed was indeed a little strange. The shadow's shoulders almost drooped to the ground, and his neck was thin and long, forming a sharp contrast with his fat body, as if he were two people put together.

"Something is indeed wrong. The black shadow was clearly next to my bed, but the moment the light came on, it disappeared without a trace." With the help of Fatty Wang, Wu Xie slowly sat down on the bed.

Wu Xie closed his eyes and tried to recall more details about the shadow. A vague figure emerged in his mind, as if shrouded in a layer of mist. As his memory deepened, he felt a chill and his body trembled involuntarily.

Just as the two of them were lost in thought, there was a sudden and urgent knock on the door.

Fatty Wang walked to the door and opened it carefully, only to see a man standing at the door with a bottle of ointment in his hand. It turned out that this was the man sent by Xie Yuchen to deliver the medicine.

After Wang Pangzi took the ointment, he turned back to the bedside and gently unscrewed the cap. A strong herbal smell hit his nose. He carefully squeezed out some ointment and applied it to Wu Xie's injured part. When the ointment touched the skin, Wu Xie suddenly felt a stinging pain. He couldn't help but frowned and groaned.

Fatty Wang saw this and quickly comforted him, "Be patient. This ointment has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. As long as you keep using it, you will recover soon." As he spoke, he continued to gently massage Wu Xie's wound with his hands to help the ointment absorb better.

However, as Fatty Wang massaged him, Wu Xie's expression became more painful, the muscles on his face twisted into a ball, and his facial features seemed to be flying away. But despite this, he still endured the pain and gritted his teeth to persevere.
