Chapter 298: Chapter 298: Do I Need to Take Off My Clothes?
The characters involved this time, and the levels involved, are truly terrifying.
Manlard himself is well aware that this move is provoking the bottom line of the Divine Land, and he must be very afraid of any unexpected accidents, so he will definitely defend the wedding venue strictly.
Therefore, the bold ideas of Chen Xiao and the others are probably nothing but wild imaginations.
No matter how formidable oneâs personal strength is, it canât withstand the tactics of overwhelming numbers nor the attacks of hot weapons!
In the end, thereâs only one path - death!
To put it bluntly, even officials from the Divine Land would dare not cause trouble in such a venue.
After all, their coming would be unjustifiable.
If one really did this, it wouldnât just be provoking the Manla Clan, but declaring war on the entire world!
If the Divine Land canât do it, can Chen Xiao and the three manage it?
She inhaled deeply and said coldly, "Chen Xiao, let me tell you, if youâre going, youâll go yourself, I wonât follow to die! And before you go off to die, make sure to unblock all the money my Lu Family invested in the stock market, otherwise youâll die for nothing."
"Who asked you to act along with us?" Chen Xiao sneered, "Youâll only hold us back. Your main task in coming out with me is to comfort me, nothing more."
Lu Rugao gritted her teeth.
Chen Xiao says such things so blatantly in front of so many people... has she no shame?
"Between us, itâs a transaction, an equal cooperation relationship." Lu Rugao forcibly defended herself.
Chen Xiao mocked, "That kind of talk can fool others, donât fool yourself."
Lu Rugao shut up.
She was both guilty and nervous.
Because what Chen Xiao said was quite reasonable, she had no choice at all.
To speak bluntly, she was just Chen Xiaoâs outlet for venting.
Although, she also enjoyed it.
But thatâs just on the physical level; her dignity was insulted!
"Alright, save such talk for your private chats in bed." Lu Wushuang interrupted the conversation between the two, "Letâs now properly design a detailed plan on how to rescue our senior sister at the wedding venue."
"Such a grand occasion, the venue will have at least a dozen layers of protection. To break in forcefully is simply unrealistic. Even if we managed to get in, we wouldâve already alerted the enemy."
"Thus, if we want to sneak in, itâs best to find a target who was invited and substitute ourselves in their identity to get into the wedding venue."
Ye Hongyi nodded, "At that time, many high-ranking people from all over the world will be present in the Philippines. We need to plan ahead. If we have to choose an identity to infiltrate, these unfamiliar foreign guests are our top choice."
"Itâs not easy..." Xu Yanran also felt a headache coming on, "These big figures have top-notch bodyguards and security. Itâs very difficult to make a move without raising an alarm."
"Weâll just take it step by step." Chen Xiao said lightly, "In the worst case, weâll just break in by force. I want to see how strong the Manla Clan really is."
"Of course, if we can capture such a target, I use the Disguise Technique to change appearance. It should provide an opportunity to infiltrate and then catch them off guard."
"Iâll have my people investigate relevant information." Ye Hongyi said, "Just right, if we want to safely get away after completing this task, we must find a scapegoat. Disguising to infiltrate is the best method."
Lu Rugao was more and more shocked as she listened; the three senior sisters and brothers were seriously discussing how to rescue Leng Baiyu from the wedding venue!
Moreover, each idea was bolder than the last.
Itâs like they were walking a tightrope.
Are these guys really not afraid of death?
Soon, Ye Hongyi drove into a secluded area and finally arrived at a large estate.
A middle-aged man in a suit, looking gentle and elegant, walked out.
"Miss Ye, welcome, welcome!"
"Mr. Liu, youâre too kind." Ye Hongyi smiled, "Thank you for the trouble these past few days."
This middle-aged man was the president of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce in the Philippines, Liu Zixiong.
In the Philippines, he was considered a dominant figure.
One-third of the physical industry in the Philippines was under the control of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.
However, in recent years, under Manlardâs oppressive policies, life has become increasingly difficult for the Philippine Chinese.
Liu Zixiong also felt great pressure, as the fruits of their hard work were being seized under made-up charges, with such occurrences becoming more frequent and blatant.
Therefore, Liu Zixiong, as the president of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, was very dissatisfied with Manlardâs racial policies.
This was one of the key reasons he took the risk to accommodate Ye Hongyi and the others.
"Itâs no trouble, no trouble." Liu Zixiong waved his hand repeatedly, "Everyone, please come inside."
"Iâve already prepared the guest room."
"Rest assured, apart from me, no one below knows your identities."
Ye Hongyi and the others nodded and entered the estate.
After familiarizing themselves with the estate, Chen Xiao approached Liu Zixiong alone and asked him to prepare some necessary medicinal herbs.
Xu Yanranâs injuries, although treated with acupuncture, would still leave scars. To completely remove the scars, medicinal herbs were needed.
Especially the scars on her face.
Over the past day or two, Xu Yanran has been using her hair to cover the scars.
"Mr. Chen also practices medicine?" Liu Zixiong was surprised when he saw Chen Xiao take out a list of herbs.
"I know a little." Chen Xiao replied.
Seeing no one around, Liu Zixiong lowered his voice, "Uh... Mr. Chen, do you have any method to treat... those kinds of problems? Over the years, Iâve worked hard, and in certain aspects, I feel inadequate!"
Chen Xiao smiled casually, looked at his complexion, "You are overworked and have damaged the source of your kidney energy, but thatâs a minor issue. Iâll prescribe you something, and after taking it, you can restore your vigor tonight!"
"Really?" Liu Zixiong was overjoyed.
Chen Xiao wrote a prescription on paper and handed it to him, "Remember, Mr. Liu, donât exceed the dosage, as excessive use is harmful."
"Thank you, Mr. Chen." Liu Zixiong accepted the paper hesitantly, though he wasnât sure if it would work, heâs left with no options, might as well try since nothingâs left to lose!
Perhaps it really works?
Plus, Ye Hongyiâs junior seems to be a remarkable person; he wouldnât deceive him.
Liu Zixiong acted quickly, and an hour later, he knocked on Chen Xiaoâs door.
He had prepared the herbs Chen Xiao requested.
Seeing the package of herbs in Liu Zixiongâs hand, Chen Xiao knowingly smiled, it seems Liu Zixiong was really eager to test the potency of his prescription.
He patted Liu Zixiongâs shoulder, "Mr. Liu, Iâd suggest you call the girl over first; otherwise, when the drug takes effect, it might be a bit rushed."
Liu Zixiong laughed heartily, "Donât worry, donât worry, itâs already arranged."
Chen Xiao took the herbs to Xu Yanranâs room and knocked on the door.
Xu Yanran, wearing a nightgown and letting her long hair down, appeared at the roomâs entrance, hiding her faceâs scars behind bangs, not daring to look directly at Chen Xiao, "Whatâs the matter?"
Chen Xiao said, "Iâve prepared some herbs. Iâll make them into a paste for you to apply to your wounds later. Soon, all your scars will disappear."
Xu Yanranâs face lit up with joy, "Really?"
"Since when have I lied to you?" Chen Xiao smiled, "Give me an hour."
An hour later, Chen Xiao appeared outside Xu Yanranâs room with a bowl.
The door wasnât locked, and he twisted the handle, walking in.
Xu Yanran, a bit nervous and shy, sat on the bed, fingers tightly intertwined.
After all, with so many scars, Chen Xiao would need to apply ointment to her, which meant sheâd probably have to remove her clothes... and some wound locations are quite embarrassing.
After a few seconds, she gathered her courage to ask, "Do... do I need to undress?"
