Chapter 1141 - 1141: Diligent Xue Nuofu

"You're not trying to scare me on purpose, are you?" Ye Kuto asked suspiciously. "Also, why do you care if I'm being manipulated by someone?"

At this moment, he finally realized something was off.

Logically, whether or not I'm being manipulated should only concern Bai Huanyu, the victim, and the police.

Why is this person in front of me forcing me to confess?

Xiao Feng rubbed his chin and candidly said, "To be honest, Qian He, who paid you to do this, is a friend of mine."

"Your friend?"

"Yes!" Xiao Feng said earnestly. "This person is utterly indifferent to family, addicted to gambling, and has absconded, owing me a huge sum. I'm guessing he's well hidden by now."

"So?"

"Therefore, even if you expose him, it won't help. The Bai Family will still want revenge on you; they'll still want to sue you."

After saying this, he stood up, sighed, and shook his head, saying, "You're on your own now!"

"Don't do this!" Ye Kuto hurriedly jumped out of bed without even putting on his shoes and grabbed Xiao Feng's arm. "Brother, for the sake of me telling you the truth, you must save me!"

Xiao Feng frowned, "Firstly, you're older than me, calling me 'brother' isn't quite appropriate.

Secondly, why must I save you?

Do I owe you anything?"

Ye Kuto's eyes darted around as he spoke tearfully, "But if you don't save me, won't I be finished?

How about this: if you help me get through this, I'll curse whoever you want me to curse in the future!"

"That's the first time I've heard such a proposal." Xiao Feng couldn't help but laugh, but regardless, his goal had been achieved.

After a pause, Xiao Feng spoke calmly, "Since you've begged me, I'll help you this time. Come closer..."

"Hey!" Ye Kuto agreed, leaning his ear closer.

After whispering for a while, Xiao Feng patted Ye Kuto's shoulder, "As long as you do what I say, I guarantee the Bai Family won't dare touch you!"

"Really?"

"Believe it or not!"

Leaving these words behind, Xiao Feng turned and exited the hospital room.

…

After getting off the car at Jinyue Garden's entrance, Xiao Feng walked home.

He didn't choose to return to his own villa but headed straight for Xue Nuofu's territory in the front yard.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he heard a "clang" sound.

Old Ha, wearing an apron and scrubbing pots, dropped the metal spoon in his hand, his eyes showing surprise, "Boss, you're finally back!"

Saying this, he ran wildly towards Xiao Feng, spreading his arms as if for a hug.

Xiao Feng's face showed unabashed disdain, waving to stop him, "No need for such melodrama, I haven't been gone for many days at all."

"Boss, indeed you haven't been gone for many days, but during the days you weren't home, I felt every minute was agonizing, truly like years!" Old Ha's expression was sincere and his tone emotional.

However, Xiao Feng involuntarily shivered with goosebumps, unable to resist cursing, "Stop the nonsense, where's Xue Nuofu?"

As soon as he said this, a familiar voice sounded, "You're back, huh."

Looking in the direction of the voice, Xiao Feng saw Xue Nuofu standing under the eaves, resting one hand on a column, smiling.

Xiao Feng was suddenly full of feelings; he couldn't help but think that in just a few days, the second boss seemed... a lot prettier.

Both walked into the villa, sitting across on the sofas by the coffee table.

"Report what you've been up to while I'm gone." Xiao Feng's tone was calm, like a simple routine inquiry.

But it was a chance for Xue Nuofu to see if he would voluntarily explain.

If he confessed voluntarily, it would be fine. If not, then the second boss might well be planning a rebellion or uprising...

Fortunately, Xue Nuofu didn't disappoint Xiao Feng. After explaining how hard and diligent he worked, he brought up "little Ye Kuto."

"The night you left, while watching a live stream, I found an extraordinary guy. You have no idea how much he loves to rant. He makes you want to punch him through the screen!"

Xiao Feng kept a straight face, "And then?"

"I immediately found that he was a talent worth using, so I sent him some gifts, added him on WeChat, and used fifty thousand yuan to buy him to curse Bai Huanyu.

Of course, I didn't directly mention Bai Huanyu, just targeted a moderately-sized 4S store under the Bai Family's banner, telling him to curse the store boss.

This morning, I watched his stream, Bai Tieniu went to the store to confront him, I recorded the stream, do you want to check it?"

Xiao Feng shook his head, "No need, I was right there, even clearer than watching the stream."

"Ah?" Xue Nuofu was dumbfounded, "You were at the store?"

Xiao Feng didn't continue the topic, just laughed, "Old Xue, you're relatively honest.

However, even when you could contact me, you acted on your own without saying a word, isn't that unreasonable?"

"Well…" Xue Nuofu was amused, "I spent my own money hiring someone to annoy Bai Huanyu, isn't that normal?"

Xiao Feng said seriously, "In the past, it might not matter much, but in the current situation, don't you see?

Possibly because of one rash action, we might lose everything.

By then, 'normal' operations become those of an undercover agent."

"I..."

"And you say you've been diligent, never relaxing for even a second, causing your skin to worsen.

But in truth, you seem quite relaxed, even had time to watch live streams, this is your diligence?"

Xue Nuofu took a deep breath, "I watched the stream because Jia Luo happened to have a live class, I didn't seriously watch, just hung around the stream room, sent some gifts support, this isn't excessive, right?"

"Come off it, Jia Luo's stream, do you ever not watch seriously?" Xiao Feng sneered, "I bet you might even take your pants off while watching."

Xue Nuofu immediately felt accused unjustly.

He deeply experienced the saying, 'You can't wake up someone pretending to sleep.'

Thus, holding a 'break the jar, break the jar's handle' attitude, Xue Nuofu angrily said, "Think whatever you want, anyway my conscience is clear!"

"Your so-called clear conscience means you watch streams with pants off and tell me you're diligently doing serious work?

Old Xue, your face masks aren't applied in vain, they sure thickened your skin."

"Ha!" Xue Nuofu mocked, looking disdainful.

Xiao Feng then pulled out his phone, "Looks like I need to tell Jia Luo about your pants-off streaming."

"Do you think she'll believe it?"

"Don't you think I can make her believe?"

Xue Nuofu opened his mouth but dared not continue being stubborn, taking a deep breath, "Hiring someone to curse Bai Huanyu was wrong, from now on I'll consult you first before doing anything.

I'm begging, don't bring up the pants thing, alright?"
