"Who? Brother Zhi Tian! Ah!" Wang Guo exclaimed, his injuries acting up.
Ming Zhi Tian put Xiao Hong down and began to examine Wang Guo from head to toe, discovering three broken ribs.
"Did Yuan Jie do this to you?"
Wang Guo forced a smile, "Still... *wheeze*... not dead yet."
Ming Zhi Tian patted his shoulder, "I'm going to get revenge for you right now."
Wang Zhe overheard and hurried over, "Revenge? Revenge for what? Haven't you caused enough trouble for the Wang family already? Do you want to drag this old man down with you before you're satisfied?"
Wang Zhe's wife, Qu Wan Ning, came over to defend him, "What are you saying? Our son is recovering here. We can talk about anything after he's healed, right?"
Wang Zhe scolded, "Two billion! The efforts of my entire life, Wang Zhe, destroyed by this unfilial son. A full two billion! Our Wang family had just managed to gain a foothold in the commercial center, and now we've become a lowly, struggling small business. If it weren't for Ah Guo lying in bed right now, I'd break his legs!"
Qu Wan Ning soothed, "Alright, alright, calm down. Money can be earned again, but a son is irreplaceable. He knows he was wrong and has paid the price. Let's not blame him anymore."
"Hmph, this matter ends here. Don't cause any more trouble!" Wang Zhe suppressed his anger and unwillingness, leaving the sight of the others. Qu Wan Ning followed.
Wang Qian Qian helped Wang Guo sit up, allowing him to face Ming Zhi Tian properly. "Brother Zhi Tian, I appreciate your kindness. It's better to avoid more trouble. I admit defeat today."
Ming Zhi Tian saw the reluctance in Wang Guo's eyes and didn't say much more, "This is my sister, Xiao Hong."
"Hello, Brother Wang," Xiao Hong smiled.
Wang Guo returned her smile, "Hello, little sister."
Ming Zhi Tian stated directly, "We don't have a place to stay for now. Do you have any spare rooms here?"
Wang Guo looked at Wang Qian Qian, "Go get the black card from the fifth drawer."
Wang Qian Qian replied with an "Mhm" and went to get it. Wang Guo gestured for her to hand it to Ming Zhi Tian, "This is the key to room 502 next door. You can stay there."
Ming Zhi Tian took the black card, "Will this be too inconvenient?"
Wang Guo shook his head, "Feel free to stay. It all belongs to our Wang family."
Ming Zhi Tian raised the black card, "Thanks, Wang Guo."
"Hey, brother, what are you talking about? We're friends, aren't we?" Wang Guo smiled.
Ming Zhi Tian nodded, "Yes, we are friends."
"Sister, take Brother Zhi Tian and the others," Wang Guo said to Wang Qian Qian.
Wang Qian Qian nodded, "No problem, brother. I'm going then. Rest well, and remember to take your medicine on time."
"Nagging," Wang Guo waved his hand.
They left the villa and walked to the adjacent apartment building. At room 502 on the first floor, a "beep" sounded as the door opened, and a sweet, intelligent female voice announced, "Welcome home, honored family member. You've worked hard."
The interior was no less luxurious than the Wang family's villa, equally comfortable and tidy. It was evident that it was well-maintained.
The next day, the antique world was abuzz because of a badge. That day, the fried chicken shop's order taker had sold Ming Zhi Tian's jade-blue bi yan for five hundred yuan in the antique market, which had delighted her.
It was nothing much at first, but for some reason, today the head of Miao Hai City's foremost family, Qing Kong Yue Zhang, had come to the antique market.
Qing Kong Yue Zhang happened to take a liking to the jade-blue bi yan and, in a bidding war with the surrounding dignitaries, eventually purchased it for fifty million yuan.
