Chapter 708: Taking A Risk

It was Monday, and Tang Xiu fully attended all the three classes he had today to the end. Even though he already finished learning all the contents and knowledge in the books, Han Qingwu did not want to see him skip classes, while he also did not want to haggle over this matter with her.

As the last class’ bell rang, Yue Kai, who sat next to Tang Xiu, came over and whispered, “Do you have any plans tonight? If not, how about joining us bowling?”

Tang Xiu himself already had a plan in mind, so he shook his head and said, “There’s something I gotta do tonight, so I’m afraid I can’t join you. Let’s change it to some other day when I’m not too busy! I’ll treat you all–brothers to a meal later.”

Having learned about Tang Xiu’s identity as well as his busy schedule in managing his business, Yue Kai nodded and said, “Okay. But be very careful when you go out. Shanghai has not been tranquil and peaceful recently, and there had been several homicide cases in just a few days. You’re a Big Boss, so you should take some bodyguards with you.”

Several homicide cases?

Tang Xiu was surprised and asked, “What murders? I only heard about the one where four nightclub girls were killed.”

“The murdered nightclub girls’ case is only one of them. Two more murder cases occurred in Fanyu District and Jingning District. I heard that even a cop was killed, and the culprit must be the one who did it. You see, the police are now employing a very strict blockade. I wouldn’t have known about this if my old man hadn’t called me and told me to pay attention to safety when I go out of the campus.”

Tang Xiu nodded and thought that the other two murder cases should not be extraordinary events, else the Everlasting Feast Hall’s intelligence personnel would have informed him.

After the teacher left, Tang Xiu handed over his textbooks to Yue Kai to bring them back while he walked toward the outside of the classroom building alone. He had not bought the research instruments needed by Professor Mo Yi, and Tang Xiu still wanted to know about the past happenings here previously.

Honk, honk…

A red BMW slowly stopped by Tang Xiu’s side. As the door was opened, Han Qingwu got off and walked toward Tang Xiu. Her walking posture looked somewhat unusual, and there was a bloodstain on her white neck.

“Do you have time tonight? Let’s have dinner together.”

Tang Xiu slightly knitted his brows and did not immediately reply, but observed her before saying, “Are you injured?”

“It’s nothing. I was slightly injured during the training,” said Han Qingwu without thinking.

Tang Xiu nodded and asked again, “Is there something up?”

“I want to speak to you about something,” said Han Qingwu. “Anyways, let’s walk and find a place to eat, and then we’ll talk about that while having a bite.”

Tang Xiu did not refuse and sat in the front seat. The red BMW started moving and left the Shanghai University quickly. While sitting on the front seat, Tang Xiu looked at Han Qingwu’s face from the side and suddenly said, “Let’s eat in Paradise Manor! Your Grandpa is also there.”

Han Qingwu was stunned for a moment, and then immediately asked, “How could my Grandpa be in Paradise Manor? And how do you know that?”

“He was injured and now is healing his wounds there,” said Tang Xiu. “He might tell you the cause when you get there.”

Han Qingwu knew Tang Xiu’s character, and if this guy did not want to say it, then she would never get the answer even if she insisted and forced him to. When they arrived at Paradise Manor, Tang Xiu directly led Han Qingwu to the foreign-styled building where Han Jintong was staying, and then found only Shanjenna, who was currently watching TV in the living room.

“Where are Professor Mo and Han Jintong?” Asked Tang Xiu.

Shanjenna jumped up and after approaching, she respectfully answered, “Professor Mo is currently sorting out the data and documents in the other room, whereas teacher is also currently healing himself, Mr. Tang. Anyways, thanks for giving him the Holy Healing medicine. His injuries are already better, and Teacher said that he will be fully healed in 2-3 days at most.”

“Go call him! Tell him that his granddaughter is here,” said Tang Xiu.

At this time, Han Jintong walked out of the room into the hallway and he immediately looked surprised after seeing Han Qingwu, saying, “Little Wu, why are you here?”

Han Qingwu, who already knew that her Grandpa was injured, strode toward Han Jintong and asked with a concerned expression all over her face, “I heard from Tang Xiu that you were injured, Grandpa. How is your injury now? What exactly happened and who did it?”

Han Jintong looked at Tang Xiu and immediately said with a smile, “Don’t worry, my injuries are about to heal, so it’s no big deal. Anyways, about what happened, it’s quite a complicated matter. I’ll tell you about that later. That’s right. This is Shanjenna, my student in the Yale University when I was teaching there.”

“Hi, Qingwu. I’m Shanjenna, and I’m very pleased to meet you.” Shanjenna stretched her hand out and said with a smile. “Anyways, Professor often mentioned you when I was in the United States.”

Han Qingwu shook hands with her and said, “Hi, Shanjenna. Anyways, my Granddad doesn’t want to tell me what exactly happened, could you tell me about that?”

Shanjenna glanced at Han Jintong and Tang Xiu. After seeing the calm expression on their faces and as they did not try to prevent her, she immediately said with an apologetic expression, “In fact, it was because of me that Professor got injured. I’m a member of the Bloodkin and was being hunted, so I ran away to China. I knew that he lived here, so I asked for his help and hoped that he could give me a safe place to hide. I never thought that those assassination agents had used the Darksoul Scent on me, the type of agent with a strong tracking effect. As a result, they always knew my whereabouts, while the professor also did not want to leave me alone, hence the reason why we all got injured.”
