My Silly, Sweet Wife

Chapter 246: Host a Banquet!


Zhao Wuji shrugged nonchalantly.

Chen Quezi quickly dialed Black Panther's phone number.

But after several rings, no one answered.

Chen Quezi's face looked somewhat grim.

After thinking it over, he dialed the number of Shi Tou, one of Black Panther's men.

The call was quickly answered.

"Shi Tou, did something really happen to Black Panther?" Chen Quezi asked right away.

The person on the other end, Shi Tou, remained silent for a while: "Yes."

"Is he dead?"

"Still in rescue." Shi Tou knew it wasn't wise to reveal Li Bao's condition right now, so he lied temporarily.

"Damn, which hospital?" Chen Quezi exclaimed anxiously, "I'll go check now."

"No need, he's been in the emergency room for a long time; we don't know when he'll be out. Brother Chen, you go ahead with your own matters." Shi Tou quickly declined, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

From Shi Tou's tone, Chen Quezi also sensed something was off.

Zhao Wuji's smile grew deeper: "Well, Chen Quezi, do you still want to go see for yourself?"

"Old Bald Zhao, does this have anything to do with you?" Chen Quezi glared and questioned angrily.

"Hey, Quezi, you can't talk nonsense like that. If Mr. Ye hears about it, won't it cost me my life?" Zhao Wuji pretended to be terrified, "If you're so well-informed, I'll say it's related to you too. If you keep spouting such nonsense, I'll kill you now and say you committed suicide out of guilt; how about that?"

"Damn it, Old Bald Zhao, you dare!" Chen Quezi jumped up immediately.

Several burly men rushed in from outside, glaring at Chen Quezi menacingly.

Zhao Wuji waved his hand with a smile: "Of course, I was just joking. Haha, we are all family, why so impulsive!"

The burly men gave Chen Quezi a provocative look before turning and leaving.

Chen Quezi clearly understood Zhao Wuji's intentions, realizing that he wouldn't get any answers today.

Zhao Wuji glanced at the other bosses: "Gentlemen, I actually have no other intention. If Mr. Ye indeed comes to ask us, naturally, we should consider it thoroughly for Mr. Ye, right?"

The others also knew that Zhao Wuji was already prepared.

To them, whether it was Black Panther or Zhao Wuji, it didn't matter.

Ultimately, they still had to listen to Ye Guichen.

"Boss Zhao, you are too kind."

"Yes, if Black Panther met with an accident, it's fate. If Mr. Ye needs anything, we will certainly oblige."

"Exactly, if Mr. Ye prefers Boss Zhao, we naturally have no objections."

Their implications were very clear.

They supported Zhao Wuji.

Zhao Wuji's face blossomed with a smile.

After seeing off Chen Quezi and the others, Zhao Wuji picked up his phone, hesitating whether to call Ye Guichen to give a discreet warning.

But before he could make the call, someone came in and told him: "Boss, Black Panther's sister invites you to dinner tonight."

"Black Panther's sister?" Zhao Wuji looked up in confusion: "Since when did Black Panther have a sister?"

The person shook their head: "Boss, I don't know either. The other party said the dinner is at the Crown Hotel's Supreme Box tonight, and they hope you can attend!"

Zhao Wuji felt suspicious.

He had never heard that Black Panther had a sister.

At this time, suddenly a sister appears out of nowhere?

Could it be that Black Panther's men had found out it was him?

After thinking it over, he felt it was unlikely.

If Black Panther was dead, his men would be scattered like sand; how could they have time to track down the killer?

But the sudden appearance of a sister left Zhao Wuji feeling uneasy.

"Alright, I'll be there on time tomorrow." Zhao Wuji decided to see who it really was.

Whoever it was, at this critical moment, he was close to becoming Ye Guichen's trusted man and couldn't afford any setbacks.

At ten o'clock in the morning.

Crown Hotel, Supreme Box.

Li Ruoxuan had arrived early.

Not only did she come herself, but she also had Shi Tou call over a dozen of Black Panther's trusted men.

She knew Zhao Wuji wasn't easy to deal with, but no matter what, she needed to hear Zhao Wuji say it himself.

"Sister Xuan, Zhao Wuji is not someone to provoke; if we make a mistake, we might face big trouble." Shi Tou was still uneasy, "Should I notify Mr. Ye, about this matter..."

"Shi Tou, this is the Li Family's matter, what does it have to do with Ye Guichen?" Li Ruoxuan couldn't understand why Shi Tou always wanted to consult Ye Guichen when things happened.

To her knowledge, Ye Guichen was just highly skilled in medicine; although Professor John and Dean Wang Jinglun held him in great esteem, what else could he help with?

Shi Tou opened his mouth, intending to say that Ye Guichen was now the leader of Ye Alliance, but in the end, he sighed and didn't say it.

Black Panther, to prevent Li Ruoxuan from getting involved, never told her about his matters, and even after the incident, he repeatedly instructed Shi Tou not to involve Li Ruoxuan.

Shi Tou was in a dilemma but finally chose to comply under Li Ruoxuan's insistence.

This matter could be resolved with a word from Mr. Ye, but Li Ruoxuan insisted on putting in so much effort.

Though unclear about Ye Guichen's exact intentions, Shi Tou couldn't just watch Li Ruoxuan walk into danger.

"Alright, I know. Ye Guichen saved my brother twice, and is my brother's lifesaver, so my brother respects him and calls him Mr., but he isn't all-powerful. Even if he were here, he couldn't help with this." Li Ruoxuan noticed Shi Tou's hesitation and offered an explanation: "Don't worry, since you call me Sister Xuan, I won't ignore your lives. I just want to ask Zhao Wuji clearly. My brother barely survived but is now a crippled. I don't want him to live in fear every day, worried about more schemes."

Li Ruoxuan understood that if the root wasn't cleared out, even if Li Bao was crippled, the killer wouldn't let things rest.

Shi Tou sighed: "Alright, Sister Xuan, we'll follow your lead."

As they spoke, the box's door was pushed open.

Zhao Wuji strutted in with two bodyguards.

As soon as he entered, he saw Li Ruoxuan.

"Wow, Black Panther actually has such a beautiful sister?" Zhao Wuji's eyes lit up at the sight of Li Ruoxuan: "That leopard's really good at hiding, huh? Haha, I'm Zhao Wuji. What should I call you, Miss Li?"

Zhao Wuji spoke with a smile, not taking Li Ruoxuan seriously at all.

"Boss Zhao, please sit!" Li Ruoxuan made a gesture inviting him to sit, forcing a smile: "My brother is hospitalized. Do you know that, Boss Zhao?"

"Hospitalized?" Zhao Wuji feigned ignorance: "What illness? Is it serious? Miss Li, I've been brothers with Black Panther for many years. If he's hospitalized, I must visit. By the way, which hospital is he in?"

"Zhao Wuji! Is it fun to play dumb like this!"

Bang!

Seeing Zhao Wuji's fake concern, Li Ruoxuan couldn't hold back anymore; she slammed the table and shouted: "Does my brother's incident have anything to do with you?"
