Chapter 177: The Resigned Xiao Qingge, the Show Begins

In a special care ward of a certain hospital.

Chen Feng slowly opened his eyes from the bed, shaking his somewhat dizzy head, and weakly said, “Water...”

A Shadow Dragon Guard, who had been taking care of Chen Feng, saw him wake up and was delighted. He quickly picked up a water cup from the table and handed it to Chen Feng.

After drinking a few sips of water, Chen Feng’s complexion improved slightly, no longer as pale as before.

“Am I in the hospital?” Chen Feng looked around the environment and asked with a frown.

He wanted to struggle to get up, but as soon as he moved, a heart-wrenching pain came from his chest.

“Hiss...” Chen Feng gasped in pain, his face showing discomfort. Only then did he remember that he had been severely injured by Butler Fu before he passed out.

“We are indeed in the hospital. After you fell unconscious, our people brought you here.”

“The doctor said your condition is not particularly serious. You just need to rest in the hospital for a few more days.”

The Shadow Dragon Guard answered Chen Feng’s question. This was also thanks to Chen Feng’s extraordinary physique, otherwise, it would have been impossible to recover so quickly.

“How many days have I been unconscious?” Chen Feng sorted out the somewhat chaotic information in his mind, recalling the events of the past few days, and asked with a frown.

“It’s been three days.”

“Has Jiang Che gone to the Xiao family these past few days?” Chen Feng asked eagerly.

His biggest fear was that Jiang Che would take advantage of his three days of unconsciousness to harass Xiao Qingge again. After all, in his view, all of Xiao Qingge’s actions were forced by Jiang Che.

“Our people have been stationed near the Xiao family, and we haven’t seen Jiang Che go there these past few days.” The Shadow Dragon Guard shook his head and said.

“That’s good...” Hearing the response, Chen Feng breathed a sigh of relief, the stone in his heart finally falling to the ground.

This was a small blessing in misfortune. Fortunately, Jiang Che hadn’t made any moves these past few days, otherwise, he would have been in deep trouble. Little did he know that Jiang Che was just waiting for him to wake up to strike when it would hurt the most.

“When did the doctor say I would recover?” Chen Feng wanted to struggle to get up from the bed. After several failed attempts, he asked with a frown.

“Since they’re back, let the brothers go and relax. There’s no need to stay at Tianchen Group every day waiting for my orders. I’ll notify you if anything comes up.” Chen Feng thought for a moment and said.

He hadn’t intended to bring so many people back, but it was the War God’s intention, so he couldn’t refuse.

And now, he didn’t need them either. It would be better to let them relax after finally coming back, leaving just a few Shadow Dragon Guards to protect him.

“Understood, Lord Tiansha.”

...

At Crouching Dragon Villa, Jiang Che was sitting on the sofa, watching TV out of boredom, listening to Ah Long’s report.

“Chen Feng is awake?” Hearing Ah Long’s words, Jiang Che was a bit surprised.

He hadn’t expected Chen Feng to recover so quickly. After all, Butler Fu hadn’t held back at the Xiao family. If it were an ordinary martial artist, it would take at least a week to recover, no matter how fast.

Chen Feng had recovered in just three days? It could only be said that he truly was the protagonist, enjoying special treatment, indeed the darling of destiny.

“That’s right, Chen Feng has now returned to Tianchen Group and started investigating the massacre of the Chen family years ago.” Ah Long reported respectfully, detailing the information received from his subordinates.

“He’s acting fast. In that case, I’ll give him a big gift!” Jiang Che showed an evil smile. Since Master Tian Sha had recovered, he could now implement his plan.

“You may leave now.” Waving his hand to dismiss Ah Long, Jiang Che picked up his phone and started chatting with Xiao Qingge.

[Are you off work? Let’s have dinner together later.]

...

In the president’s office of the Xiao Group, Xiao Qingge was bowing her head, correcting documents.

Her phone suddenly buzzed, interrupting her thoughts. Looking at the chat message that popped up, Xiao Qingge’s expression became complicated.

Jiang Che’s almost commanding tone didn’t give her any room to refuse. She could already guess what was going to happen next.

After hesitating for a long time, Xiao Qingge picked up her phone and replied.

[Okay.]

She had no way out. This was the last resort for the Xiao family.

[I’m coming to pick you up now. Wait for me at the Xiao Group.].

After ending the chat, Xiao Qingge put her phone back on the table, her expression full of struggle.
