Although Leng Jin had not returned for many years, he still had some contacts in the city. And, Leng Jin had always been in contact with Wu Linzhi in order to carry out his plan for revenge against Yu Hao.
Soon, after they left An Qi, Leng Jin and Wu Linzhi found Yu Hao with the help of their own staff members. Maybe God also felt that Yu Hao was abominable because when Leng Jin and Wu Linzhi found him in a back alley, the sky suddenly opened up, and it began to pour! It was raining cats and dogs!
As the heavy, bean-sized raindrops made contact with Yu Hao's wound, it was extremely painful. It was almost as if they were intentionally trying to make his wound fester and become even more inflamed!
Yu Hao raised his eyelids weakly, while realizing that it had been a long time since he had experienced such a heavy rainstorm. In fact, the last time was years ago, when Xiaonan had told him she was pregnant.
"Are you Yu Hao?" Leng Jin asked for confirmation.
Unlike Wu Linzhi, through An Qi and Gu Xiaonan, Leng Jin had overheard Yu Hao's name and had also had several face to face encounters with him. However, each time An Qi and Gu Xiaonan had been present. This would be the first time he had actually spoken to Yu Hao.
As he was flustered, Yu Hao almost did not recognize Leng Jin. As Yu Hao nodded in confirmation, he thought... This man's voice sounds as good as the man who hurt me just now...
As he was in somewhat of a trance, Yu Hao almost mistook Leng Jin for someone else. But, after listening to his voice and looking at him more carefully, there seemed to be some differences between the two men.
"How did you get hurt?" Wu Linzhi asked innocently.
He was certainly proving himself to be a brilliant actor, as even though he was extremely disgusted with Yu Hao, he could feign innocence so effortlessly!
"Wu Linzhi?" Yu Hao's having no special reaction towards Leng Jin was normal, but when his eyes swept over to Wu Linzhi, he froze.
After all, the man standing in front of him was the same man who had caused him to lose his two thumbs! If it were not for him, he might not have been slashed by a debt collector!
Until now, Yu Hao had still thought that one of the debt collectors had taken him away for revenge. But now, he was beginning to see things clearly...
"I'm Wu Linzhi. How do you know me?" Wu Linzhi asked.
The last time, when they were at Strolling Through Tokyo, several fans came up to Wu Linzhi to ask for his signature, and Yu Hao had mistakenly thought that the fans wanted his signature instead!
"I must have seen you on the TV or on the streets. You're so famous, so how could I not recognize you?" Yu Hao began to murmur to himself. Amid the heavy rain, they could hardly hear him.
"Ah, is that how you know me? Well, that happens to me often. Even An Qi didn't recognize me at first, so I was just a passerby in all of your hearts." Similar to Yu Hao's before, Wu Linzhi's voice was almost engulfed by sound of the heavy rain too.
He then raised his lips, and with a look of self-mockery, gazed at the poor Yu Hao with bitterness in his eyes. After all, it was not long ago that Yu Hao had stood and looked down on Wu Linzhi many times.
What's more, after Yu Hao had instigated others to hurt Wu Linzhi. Yu Hao was even the one responsible for stepping on Wu Linzhi's face!
Since that time, Wu Linzhi had forgotten how to laugh. But, as every dog has its day, Wu Linzhi not only stood in front of Yu Hao now, but he had the power now to dominate him!
Leng Yuchen's staff members had already thrown Yu Hao's two bludgeoned fingers beside his shoes. Because of what Yu Hao had done to An Qi, Leng Yuchen was really angry.
But, his staff was very clear about Boss Leng's bottom line. Therefore, before the appearance of Leng Jin and Wu Linzhi, Yu Hao should have had enough time to take his severed fingers to the hospital to be sewn back on.
However, the appearance of these two men had dashed those hopes. At the moment, Yu Hao was unsure what the two people in front of him would do next.
"I remember you, too. You are Xiaonan's boss." Yu Hao licked his dry lips, then tried to stand up. But, when he thought of his broken fingers and the ice-cold rain, he gave up on the idea.
Then, after recalling Leng Jin's status, Yu Hao chose to put aside his hatred for Wu Linzhi temporarily and appeal to Leng Jin.
After Leng Jin saw that Yu Hao remembered who he was, he immediately fought hard to hold back his disgust and asked, "Yes, Mr. Yu, what can I do for you?" After all, in front of strangers, he had to play the role of the perfect gentleman.
"Would you please help me get to the hospital? My hands have been severely injured. As there is so much bacteria in the rain and on the ground, I do not want to press my fingers on the ground in order to stand up."
"Oh, I understand now. I'll come and help you up." Having said that, Leng Jin went forward to support Yu Hao and help him stand up.
When Yu Hao's fingers had been chopped off, Leng Yuchen had deliberately instructed his men not to give Yu Hao any anesthetics. This had left Yu Hao in severe pain.
"Thank you, but please slow down and try to be a bit gentler with me!" Yu Hao was in so much pain that it was even a struggle for him to talk.
Despite the severe pain, he exerted his remaining energy to try to stand up with Leng Jin's help. However, just when Yu Hao thought he was going to succeed in standing up, his foot slipped, causing Leng Jin and Yu Hao to fall backwards together.
Out of instinct, Yu Hao reached back his hands to catch himself and break his fall. So, when his hands made contact with the ground, the rain and dirty germs from it and the ground instantly infiltrated his wounds on his hands.
Meanwhile, An Qi and Dong Manman sat in the backseat of Sheng Jie's car. Along the way, An Qi felt that she was being watched from behind. But, when she finally turned around to check, she only saw the rear window of Sheng Jie's car, which was almost fully covered with dust.
"Sheng Jie, you should really find time to clean your car, as I can't see through the rear window at all. It's unsightly, and what's worse, it could easily cause an accident!"
"Do you know why I wanted to buy a gray car?" Sheng Jie asked, while he patted the passenger's seat cushion.
An Qi was surprised by his seemingly random question, so she asked, "Hmm… Is it because it can withstand a lot of dirt?"
"Bingo! Your answer is correct! An Qi, you are smart! It's no wonder that the daughter that you share with Boss Leng is also smart and very lovely. She is the product of a very strong union between two very impressive people!"
An Qi rolled her eyes in the face of his flattery. She felt that Sheng Jie, who was a man of science and technology, was sometimes a headache to converse with!
At the moment, she was unsure whether anyone had ever told Sheng Jie all that had happened at Lake Heart Villa. After all, ever since An Yufei had bonded with Leng Yuchen, they were either discussing important political news or researching interesting things together on a daily basis.
Occasionally An Qi would try to join in. However, before she could say more than three words, she would be ousted out by the iconic Leng's classic eye rolling!
On several occasions, An Qi felt like pouting and putting her hands on her waist, then saying to An Yufei "You should just change your name to 'Leng Yufei!'"
