391: Chapter 386: Found It!
The Baldy and his brothers all watched Ye Tian leave with respect.
Baldy was highly respectful towards Ye Tian.
As for Baldy’s obese wife, she had been beaten into a pig-headed mess by him…
Even so, the obese woman didn’t dare to make a scene with her husband, because she knew that her husband was a typical male chauvinist.
If she lost her temper now, it would only lead to another violent beating from her husband!
“Do you know why I hit you?”
With a glance at his wife, the obese woman shook her head, her face full of confusion.
“Because the person you just offended is the real big shot of Jiangcheng’s underworld!
Everyone has to give way to him, and you actually dared to have me call someone to deal with him.
You really don’t want to live!”
Baldy said viciously, warning his wife, whose face showed a look of shock before she fainted…
On the other hand, Ye Tian took Yun Xinyan back to the villa, where Yun Xinyan was indeed tired.
Ye Tian had Xinyan lie down on the bed and fall into a deep sleep.
Although sleeping couldn’t remove the poison in Yun Xinyan’s body, it could calm Xinyan’s mind.
That way, Xinyan wouldn’t suffer an outbreak of the Seven Emotions Fruit poison due to her thoughts.
To be on the safe side, Ye Tian gave Yun Xinyan a few more acupuncture needles.
He didn’t know how long his acupuncture would last, but as long as there was a one in ten thousand chance of controlling the poison in Xinyan’s body, Ye Tian was willing to try.
After finishing the acupuncture, Yun Xinyan slept soundly.
Ye Tian left the bedroom and stepped outside the villa.
Ye Tian’s first move was to call Wang Bingbing, and then, he issued an order to Bingbing!
“There’s a Baldy among your men, and among his subordinates, there is someone named Er Gouzi.
This person may very well have the Companion Fruit.
Find him at all costs and retrieve the Companion Fruit!”
“Okay.”
Wang Bingbing was curt, but since she had agreed, Ye Tian felt quite assured.
Of course, besides Bingbing, Ye Tian also relayed the order to track down Er Gouzi to the Hungry Wolf.
Just like Bingbing, Hungry Wolf took the command and left.
If Er Gouzi was in Jiangcheng or nearby, with Bingbing and Hungry Wolf’s influence, they should be able to find him.
But Ye Tian still felt some worry.
After all, finding someone in the vast sea of people was a difficult task…
Ye Tian had considered that if neither Bingbing nor Hungry Wolf could find Er Gouzi, then he would ask the Sky Net to search for him.
But Sky Net was a secretive website, with vast forces behind it, and Ye Tian currently wasn’t keen on having too much contact with Sky Net.
For now, all Ye Tian could do was wait silently…
While Ye Tian was waiting quietly for news of Er Gouzi, in a hidden room in Jiangcheng, the third son of the Lin Family also learned through his own channels about Ye Tian’s fruitless search throughout the city for the Companion Fruit, and his anxiety and loss.
For Lin Tao, nothing made him happier than seeing Ye Tian in pain!
“Ye Tian, oh Ye Tian, I never thought you’d have a day like this!
Now you know how painful it is to not find something important, don’t you?
Hahahaha~~~~~~ How could you possibly find it?
Because this fruit is on me!”
While saying this, Lin Tao took out the Companion Fruit he had obtained from Li Chengfei to look at it.
Although the fruit was meaningless to him, it was very important to Ye Tian.
Now that Ye Tian couldn’t find the Companion Fruit anywhere, his distraught expression was exactly what Lin Tao wanted to see…
“Keep looking!
Search everywhere!
But no matter how much you look, you will never find it!
Because this fruit is here with me!
In the hands of this young master!
I just love seeing you so anxious; the more anxious you are, the happier I am!
And moreover, this is just the beginning.
You are now exhausted from searching for the Companion Fruit.
When the experts from the Lin Family arrive, they will just strike you down directly!
By then, hahahahaha~~~~~~~~~~”
Lin Tao muttered to himself, laughing unrestrainedly.
His subordinates could tell that this third son of the Lin Family was becoming somewhat unhinged.
This third son of the Lin Family had been taught a brutal lesson by Ye Tian, and he was eager for revenge.
So now, Lin Tao was slightly out of control…
“Young Master Lin, your phone!” As Lin Tao was raging, a bodyguard handed him a phone, “It’s from the main house!”
Because it was a call from the Lin Family, Lin Tao stopped his arrogant laughter, and carefully answered the phone, but the content of the call was somewhat disappointing.
“Third Young Master, an enemy force is challenging the family, and all the experts from the family have been sent to combat them.
Therefore, there are no experts available to come to Jiangcheng right now.
Please, kindly wait for their arrival, which will be in a week’s time.”
The voice on the other end of the phone was very calm, but Lin Tao felt quite annoyed!
“I am the third son of the Lin Family, and I’ve been hiding in this dungeon-like room for so many days.
Whom should I hold accountable for this?
Why haven’t the family’s experts come?
Are you telling me that to deal with a mere Ye Tian, you can’t find any decent people?”
“Third Young Master, please wait patiently.”
The person on the other end repeated, and Lin Tao realized he had been a bit too agitated just now, so he softened his tone a bit.
“Fine, I’ll wait!”
For Lin Tao, the top priority was to wait, and there was nothing else he could do.
Of course, Lin Tao’s schemes weren’t as simple as just asking for family experts to come and deal with Ye Tian.
“Since the expert will still take a few days to arrive, then let’s have the family send a few financial experts over!”
“Okay.”
The person on the other end of the phone said a word and then hung up.
At this moment, Lin Tao seemed even more triumphantly smug!
“Humph, humph, humph, humph!
Ye Tian, don’t think that without the Lin Family’s experts, you can rest easy!
Let me tell you, there are countless financial experts and operators within Lin Corporation, they just need to get to Jiangcheng, and they can control the entire Jiangcheng economy.
This time, I must take down Yun Corporation, not only leaving you with no way out, but also making Yun Xinyan go bankrupt and end up on the streets!”
Amidst his sinister laughter, Lin Tao revealed the reason he had requested financial experts from Lin Corporation.
On the side, Bei Dong eagerly brown-nosed, “Young Master Lin, you are truly amazing.
With this, both Yun Corporation and Ye Tian are doomed, and our Lin Family will eventually control all of Jiangcheng!”
Of course, the situation for Bei Dong was hardly optimistic at that time, as he had been brutally beaten by Ye Tian.
His face was wrapped in thick bandages, a sign telling him that his looks might never be restored.
After his wounds healed, he would be left with a grotesque face…
While Lin Tao and his men were plotting, Yun Xinyan had already woken up in the villa she shared with Ye Tian.
However, Yun Xinyan did not wake up naturally after a good sleep, but because she felt uncomfortable, which caused her to awaken from her slumber.
“Cough, cough, cough~~~~~~~~”
Yun Xinyan started coughing violently, covering her mouth with her hand.
After a bout of coughing, Yun Xinyan loosened her palm, only to find traces of blood.
In medical terms, coughing up blood is a very serious symptom, and Yun Xinyan had never experienced it before.
So, Yun Xinyan also realized the severity of the situation now…
“Ye Tian, am I sick?”
Yun Xinyan asked Ye Tian, keeping her company at her side, well aware that her body was in serious trouble.
At that time, Ye Tian also looked worried.
His heart ached, but he was helpless.
Ye Tian wanted to save Yun Xinyan but couldn’t find the Companion Fruit needed to detoxify her, and he himself was exhausted…
But no matter what, in front of Yun Xinyan, Ye Tian had to muster a smile because he was her pillar of strength!
“My dear wife, don’t get carried away with wild thoughts.
It’s easy to cough up blood if someone has a lung problem.
Like me, although I’m strong, whenever I meditate and practice, if I’m not careful and my qi flow gets obstructed, I also cough up blood!”
Ye Tian comforted Yun Xinyan, and after hearing his words, she became slightly less worried…
“Wife, it seems you have a lung disease, but you can rest assured, because your husband, I am a very skilled doctor.
Lie down quickly, let me give you a few acupuncture needles, and I guarantee that after the treatment, your lung disease will heal without medication!”
Saying this, Ye Tian took out his silver needles that he always carried with him.
Yun Xinyan also knew that Ye Tian’s medical skills were excellent and obediently lay down on the bed as Ye Tian suggested.
Ye Tian then started to treat Yun Xinyan with the needles…
Of course, this treatment method could only temporarily ease the flow of the Seven Emotions Fruit toxin in Yun Xinyan’s body, a case of treating the symptoms but not the cause.
But this was all Ye Tian could do, as providing acupuncture for Yun Xinyan could slightly improve her mood.
After the acupuncture treatment, Yun Xinyan felt much more comfortable and fell into a deep sleep once again…
Ye Tian walked out of the room and dialed Wang Bingbing’s number.
“Wang Bingbing, has Er Gouzi been found yet?
If there’s any news, you must tell me immediately!”
“Okay.”
Wang Bingbing’s reply was still brief, just two words, and after that, Ye Tian hung up the phone.
Just as Ye Tian was considering calling Starving Wolf again, his phone rang—it was Wang Bingbing calling!
So quickly!?
Ye Tian was somewhat surprised, but still answered the call…
“Er Gouzi has been found and will be brought here soon.
Please wait patiently.”
“That’s great!”
Over the phone, Ye Tian could hardly hide his excitement.
Finding Er Gouzi meant that Yun Xinyan finally had a chance to be saved!
