"Offend someone? Let me think..." Gu's mother listened to Luo Chao's words and didn't dare to be careless, bowing her head in thought.

Gu Yanxi secretly tugged Luo Chao's sleeve, "Luo Chao, my mother is kind-hearted, acknowledged as a warm-hearted aunt by all our neighbors, how could she possibly offend anyone?"

Luo Chao said calmly, "You might think what I said doesn't make sense, but the world is like this; the kinder a person is, the more likely they might inadvertently offend malicious people."

After a short while, Gu's mother seemed to have finished recalling, raised her head, and said, "Young man, I really can't remember offending anyone!"

Luo Chao nodded slightly, "Then do you remember the day your legs started to be paralyzed?"

"Which day?" Gu's mother fell into thought again, but this time, her eyes quickly lit up, and she said, "I remember this! Fifteen years ago, our family was still living in an old neighborhood close to the city center."

"Back then, a real estate group wanted to develop the land where our neighborhood was located. Oh yes, it was Huahai City's Wanlin Group!"

Wanlin Group!

A world top 500 company, on par with Lin Yun's Haichen Group!

One of Huahai City's three leading enterprises!

"I remember back then, Wanlin Group wasn't as big as it is now, it was just a small real estate group. The compensation they gave for our commercial demolition was simply a rip-off!"

"Naturally, all the residents of our neighborhood opposed the demolition! But they hired some street thugs who threw bricks at our residential buildings every night and smeared graffiti everywhere, trying to force us out, but we endured it!"

"But one night, those thugs surprisingly didn't show up. We thought Wanlin Group had given up. The next morning, we found several beautifully packaged fruit baskets in the hallway, which we took as a gesture from Wanlin Group to apologize to us residents, so we happily took them home to eat."

"The baskets were full of grapes; I like sour things, while my husband and daughter don't. I ended up eating the whole basket of grapes myself. A few days later, I began to feel my legs were frequently weak and my body was getting worse by the day, eventually paralyzing!"

"Later on, somehow, almost every household in the community also fell ill with various minor or major ailments. After spending all our savings on medical bills, we had no choice but to sell our houses to Wanlin Group."

"In the end, our family also had to sell our house and move out of the old neighborhood. That piece of land was developed into Huahai City's largest shopping plaza, Wanlin Plaza."

"We suspected that Wanlin Group was behind this, but the hospital couldn't determine any cause, and we had no evidence, so we just had to..."

At this point, Luo Chao had a rough idea.

It's likely that Wanlin Group, to drive these residents away, hired a Southeast Asian Black Magic Master to cast various spells on them, and Gu's mother was the victim of a Gu Poison!

Luo Chao couldn't help but lament that capitalists would do anything unconscionable for profit!

Although Luo Chao was very indignant about this, as Gu's mother said, it's all just speculation without substantial evidence.

Luo Chao couldn't afford to worry about a matter from fifteen years ago; protecting the female CEO Lin Yun was his most important task!

Thinking about this, Luo Chao bid farewell to Gu Yanxi and Gu's father and mother, and headed towards the bank.

He needed to withdraw the 2.5 million cash he had just earned from Sun Bowen and Vulture.

The antique market that followed was Luo Chao's primary destination for the day!

...

Luo Chao had barely left the hospital when a heart-wrenching scream suddenly erupted from Sun Bowen's ward!

"Damn it! My precious hair!"

Vulture stood dumbstruck in front of the hospital mirror, looking at his now completely bald self, clutching his head and crying bitterly. At his feet lay several oily, long strands of hair.

Vulture's bald head shimmered with an oily sheen in the sunlight, seemingly protesting the world's injustice.

At the same time, it reflected Vulture's true inner thoughts, "Why am I so handsome, yet cursed to lose my hair!"

Behind Vulture, Sun Bowen pointed at Vulture's dejected expression and laughed heartlessly.

But as he laughed, he suddenly felt something was wrong, the fiery sensation in his stomach grew stronger and soon became unbearable stomach pain.

Grabbing a tissue from the bedside, he dashed towards the toilet.

Not long after, a wail several times more harrowing than Vulture's tore from the toilet!

With screams like a slaughtered pig, Sun Bowen crawled out from the toilet.

That's right, crawled out!

Sun Bowen lay on the floor, his previously clean shirt now stained with urine and feces. His pants were pulled down to his knees, exposing his white, tender buttocks.

Sun Bowen crawled into the hallway and saw Jiang Lianqing sitting absentmindedly on the long bench, staring at an acupoint chart.

He weakly asked, like clinging to life, "Old...Old sneak, where's your...your master?"

When Jiang Lianqing didn't respond to his question, Sun Bowen had to call Vulture out.

Without needing Sun Bowen's instructions, Vulture grabbed Jiang Lianqing by the collar and shouted angrily, "Where's your master! Call him here for me!"

Being lifted like that by Vulture, Jiang Lianqing finally responded, "He...he left!"

"Damn it, left? Then tell me, what's his name?!" Vulture glared with eyes as big as bells, cursing angrily.

Having lost his treasured hair, overwhelmed with grief and anger, Vulture had completely forgotten the insurmountable feeling Luo Chao had imposed on him earlier.

He now wanted nothing more than to catch Luo Chao and use every means possible to tear him apart!

Clearly frightened by Vulture's furious demeanor, Jiang Lianqing trembled and said, "Luo...Luo Chao, his name is Luo Chao!"

Damn!

Luo Chao, it's that damn Luo Chao again!

Upon hearing the name, Sun Bowen nearly exploded with fury.

"Luo Chao? Young Master Sun, isn't this Luo Chao the one you told me to teach a lesson to?" Hearing the name Luo Chao left Vulture momentarily confused.

"No more teaching! I want you to kill him now!" Sun Bowen gritted his teeth and said.
