Chapter 111: Conflict in the Villa

When Xu Xiaoxiao heard Chu Jiang’s question, she quickly nodded and said, "My uncle and my dad have been saying that they want to call the people from that company to come over. But I have been stalling them, saying that I have already found someone and that they will visit in a couple of days."

"Then let’s just go directly there. As for your cousin, let his gang take care of him," Chu Jiang said, not wanting Xu Xiaoxiao to have a hard time.

Xu Xiaoxiao nodded again.

The two of them left the hospital room and she gave some instructions to her gang members before leaving with Chu Jiang.

When they reached the entrance, Chu Jiang casually asked, "Isn’t your family pretty wealthy? Why don’t I see you driving a fancy car, just an electric bike?"

Xu Xiaoxiao toughened up this time, saying, "What’s wrong with an electric bike? I have my driver’s license too. As for fancy cars, I don’t care for them. My parents always told me to keep a low profile, so that I won’t get kidnapped one day."

Chu Jiang thought for a moment and asked, "You don’t know how to drive, do you?"

This question caught Xu Xiaoxiao off guard, and her face stiffened. "It’s not that I don’t know how, it’s just that I don’t have the time to learn, understand?"

"I understand, I’ll take you there, just tell me the address."

It has to be said that having his own car made Chu Jiang’s life much easier. No need to constantly hail taxis or use his phone to order one.

This doesn’t count as taking away the previous responsible person’s property, because Wang Lei is an orphan with no family. His inheritance couldn’t go to his family.

……

Xu Xiaoxiao’s grandfather, named Xu Yanting, made his fortune through business ventures in his early years. He went through many ups and downs and was considered a prominent figure in the industry.

The several villas he owned were located on the outskirts of Luohe City, close to Luohe. From the window, one could see the scenic water view. It can be described as peaceful and elegant.

When Chu Jiang drove Xu Xiaoxiao to the entrance of the villa, they saw four or five cars parked there, most of them being luxury cars like Rolls-Royce and Mercedes-Maybach.

Chu Jiang wasn’t surprised, this is how wealthy families are.

However, Xu Xiaoxiao’s expression changed. She muttered to herself, "There are quite a few cars. Maybe there are visitors, but not many people should know about this place. It’s strange…"

With a little bit of nervousness, Xu Xiaoxiao quickly walked into the villa with Chu Jiang.

Before they even stepped inside the doorway, they heard laughter coming from the hall. "I have heard of your company’s reputation before, but we haven’t had the opportunity to collaborate. If you can cure the old master’s illness this time, we will be even closer in the future."

"Mr. Xu, rest assured. There is very little that our Sincerity Company can’t achieve. We are professionals in this field."

"Furthermore, times have changed. I recommend that your Xu family join our company and become shareholders. This way, we can prevent incidents like what happened to the old master from happening again."

Xu Xiaoxiao became angry as soon as she heard this and walked into the hall to see for herself. Sure enough, her second uncle was brewing tea and chatting enthusiastically with three strangers.

Uncle Xu Wanglong was slightly chubby, and sitting across from him were a round-faced middle-aged man, a sinister-looking young man, and a man wearing a black hat.

They were all dressed in suits, wearing ties, and had polished shoes, an appearance of upper-class individuals.

"Uncle, who are these people?" Xu Xiaoxiao asked with a pout.

Xu Wanglong frowned, "Young lady, don’t be disrespectful. These guests are here because of your father and my connections."

Xu Xiaoxiao had a headache, "Didn’t I say it already? I’ve already found someone, yet you keep finding these scammers."

"Do you remember the last time we found that dishonest master and the idiotic master? Grandpa scared them away with his stick."

Chu Jiang, on the other hand, remained calm and observed the people in the hall.

Chu Jiang hadn’t seen these three people from Sincerity Company before. However, he could tell that the man with a sinister face and the one wearing a tall hat were both Ghost Masters.

The person who was enthusiastically talking to Xu Wanglong, on the other hand, seemed like an ordinary person.

While Chu Jiang observed them, those people were also observing him.

The man with the tall hat glanced at Chu Jiang and whispered to his companion, as if they also realized that Chu Jiang was a Ghost Master.

This was normal, as Chu Jiang had been heavily influenced by the darkness. His face was pale and he unknowingly emitted a cold aura, making it easy to distinguish.

"Stop fooling around," Xu Wanglong stood up sternly, "It’s different this time. We had a video call with the people from Sincerity Company, and they truly have special abilities."

"The person I found also has special abilities," Xu Xiaoxiao said, unwillingly running back and grabbing Chu Jiang’s hand.

At that moment, the middle-aged man with a round face from Sincerity Company stood up with a smile and said, "Don’t worry, let’s not harm our own people."

"Young man, what’s your name? Have you heard of our company?" He took out a business card and handed it forward.

However, Chu Jiang didn’t accept it, but gave the other person a cold look.

This made the middle-aged man show a displeased expression. He thought he was polite enough and didn’t expect the other person to be so arrogant.

The gloomy man sneered, "Another ignorant fellow. I’ve seen many people like him, thinking they’re superior and above everyone else, only to end up being trampled underfoot."

As he spoke, he flicked the cigarette butt in his hand onto the ground and crushed it harshly.

Xu Xiaoxiao felt annoyed by this, thinking, "Doesn’t he have any manners? Is this his home?"

Xu Wanglong hesitated for a moment, unsure if he should let little Xu Xiaoxiao’s friend go first.

The man with the tall hat was just about to join in and say something when his phone started ringing.

He looked down and smiled when he saw the number. "Wait a moment, everyone. Our friend is here."

"What if our new friend here thinks he is better than us? He can compete with our friend and prove it."

"Let’s show our real abilities so Mr. Xu can trust us."

Xu Wanglong didn’t expect that they would go straight from talking to fighting. He hesitated and said, "We should value harmony, there’s no need for this."

By now, the middle-aged man with a round face had already put away his business card. He said casually, "It’s better to give it a try. If someone looks down on our Sincerity Company to the point of refusing a business card, how can we survive in this industry?"

Without waiting for Xu Wanglong to respond, the man with the tall hat happily walked out. "Come, everyone, meet our new friend. He’s a local from Luohe."

While he spoke, the other two members of Sincerity Company followed. The eerie man even smirked as he passed by Chu Jiang.

Chu Jiang didn’t look at him but turned to Xu Xiaoxiao instead. "Do you see? People like me often have problems with their minds. It’s best if you don’t associate with me too much."

After finishing speaking, Chu Jiang also walked out of the door, and he was a little interested in the so-called "local person."

"Hey, wait!" Xu Xiaoxiao was startled for a moment and immediately chased after.

Xu Wanglong looked at the empty hall and reluctantly followed out.
