40: Chapter 40 Just wait, she'll definitely be home soon.

He gave that liquid a name.

Luo Wei put the white jade porcelain bottle back into the system inventory.

Letting the white jade porcelain bottle continue to generate spirit liquid.

Not long after, Shen Yanqiu woke up.

She smelled a pleasant scent permeating the air.

She couldn't figure out what the smell was, nor could she understand why Luo Wei, who loved sleeping in, had woken up so early today.

She didn't know if it was just her imagination, but she felt Luo Wei looked a bit more handsome than before.

Moreover, he had an indescribable temperament about him.

Luo Wei had already finished washing up and was fully dressed.

Dressed exceptionally well, he looked both roguish and handsome, the very image of a "little wolf dog."

"I have things to do today, so I won't be taking you to work."

"Okay," Shen Yanqiu nodded obediently.

She then watched Luo Wei leave.

The todays intelligence had not refreshed yet.

But Luo Wei didn't mind; he only wanted to settle Lin Wantang's matters right now.

He drove to the University Town and parked in front of the Wantang Xiaozhu Milk Tea Shop.

It was still very early, but Lin Wantang had already opened for business.

Although she was wearing a mask.

It still couldn't hide her haggard appearance.

Luo Wei's early appearance gave her a pleasant surprise.

However, she still couldn't recall any memories related to Luo Wei.

"Have you had breakfast?" Lin Wantang asked while bringing out a sandwich from the counter.

Luo Wei sat down in the shop and, seeing no one else, asked, "Are you the only one in the shop?"

Lin Wantang nodded sheepishly.

She used to employ staff for shifts.

Later, to save money, she dismissed the employees.

Now, her capital chain had collapsed; if the landlord didn't receive the rent next month, she would inevitably be evicted.

Luo Wei signaled Lin Wantang to sit down. "How much do you currently owe in online loans in total?"

Faced with this question, Lin Wantang lowered her head in embarrassment.

"A-about four or five hundred thousand..."

"Does that include interest?"

"I-it does..."

"Very well!"

Luo Wei chuckled.

"Next, we'll find Xie Simin."

"I'm not only going to make her spit out the million she swindled from you."

"But I'll also make her pay off these online loans for you as compensation for mental distress!"

Lin Wantang looked up at Luo Wei, dumbfounded. If Xie Simin could just return that million, she'd be thanking the heavens!

She didn't harbor any extravagant hopes for mental distress compensation or anything of the sort from Xie Simin.

"Hurry up and close the shop; we're going to find Xie Simin right now!"

"Th-that..." Lin Wantang explained awkwardly.

"I heard from a friend that Xie Simin has been traveling out of town these past few days."

"Is that so?" Luo Wei laughed. "I have a way to make her rush back immediately. Take me to her mother!"

Not knowing what Luo Wei planned to do, Lin Wantang followed his instructions and quickly closed the shop.

In a few bites, Luo Wei finished the sandwich Lin Wantang had given him.

Then, under Lin Wantang's guidance.

He drove to Xie Simin's home.

Half an hour later, the two arrived at an old residential complex.

Just as Luo Wei parked the car, Lin Wantang let out a cry of surprise!

"That woman with the 'instant noodle' hair carrying the vegetable basket is Xie Simin's mother!"

Lin Wantang gritted her teeth at the woman; it was that woman who had lain in the hospital, cooperating with Xie Simin to swindle her money!

Luo Wei nodded with a smile. "You don't need to get out. I'll be right back!"

After getting out of the car, Luo Wei walked quickly toward the woman with the curly hair.

On the way, he retrieved the bad luck talisman.

The bad luck talisman had been attached to Zheng Feiyang's body.

Currently, Zheng Feiyang had been arrested for murder.

It no longer mattered whether the bad luck talisman was on him or not.

The bad luck talisman appeared out of thin air in his hand, and Luo Wei had already caught up to the woman.

He reached out and tapped her on the shoulder. "Auntie."

"Hmm?" Zhang Guoying, who had a head full of permed curls, turned around in confusion.

She quickly sized Luo Wei up. "You are..."

"My apologies!" Luo Wei smiled and waved his hand. "I've got the wrong person!"

Realizing it was just a mistake, Zhang Guoying didn't take it to heart and walked quickly toward the residential building.

She planned to drop off the groceries at home and then head back down to join her old sisters for some square dancing.

Watching Zhang Guoying go upstairs, Luo Wei returned to the car.

Lin Wantang was a bit bewildered.

She had no idea what Luo Wei had just done.

Luo Wei naturally saw no need to explain to her. "Just wait; Xie Simin will definitely be home soon!"

Lin Wantang found it hard to understand, but since Luo Wei said so, she waited silently.

Before long, a heart-wrenching scream echoed from the stairwell!

The neighbors relaxing downstairs heard the sound and went over to check.

They saw Zhang Guoying, with her permed hair, lying sprawled out at the stair landing, with various fruits and vegetables scattered everywhere.

"Teacher Zhang, how did you fall?" Everyone rushed forward to help.

"Ouch..." Zhang Guoying let out a painful wail.

"I... I was in a hurry to get home, and I accidentally missed a step and rolled down the stairs..."

"Ow, quickly call 120 for me. Don't touch me, it hurts so much, ow..."

The neighbors quickly made calls; some called an ambulance, others called Zhang Guoying's husband and daughter.

Soon, an ambulance with sirens blaring drove into the residential complex.

Medical personnel went upstairs and used a stretcher to carry Zhang Guoying down.

Although Lin Wantang was sitting in the car some distance from the residential building.

She could never mistake Zhang Guoying's signature permed hair!

If she wasn't mistaken, Zhang Guoying's injury was definitely because of something Luo Wei had done!

The question was, what did Luo Wei do? He had only tapped Zhang Guoying earlier!

Lin Wantang looked at Luo Wei, dumbfounded, while Luo Wei had a confident smile on his face.

"Tell me, will Xie Simin rush home as fast as possible now?"

"She definitely will!" Lin Wantang nodded heavily. Zhang Guoying only had one child.

Now that something had happened to her, Xie Simin, as her daughter, would naturally rush home.

"That's good!" The smile on Luo Wei's face grew even brighter. "Next, we just need to wait for the prey to come to us!"

"Oh..." Lin Wantang was full of doubts. Once they caught Xie Simin, would they really be able to make her cough up the money?

Lin Wantang didn't voice her doubts; after all, she had already witnessed Luo Wei's miraculous abilities!

As he watched the ambulance carry Zhang Guoying away, an intelligence pop-up suddenly appeared before Luo Wei's eyes.

[todays intelligence]

1. Ye Weilan's company has a debt that cannot be recovered, and Shen Yanqiu recommended you to her.

2. Lin Wantang's classmate, Xie Simin, has a habit of keeping a diary, which is kept in her bedroom drawer.

3. Cheng Yunshu will sell a house in the afternoon, but the owner feels that Cheng Yunshu cheated him and is attempting to retaliate.

Today's intelligence refreshed, and a new character appeared.

Needless to say, that Ye Weilan is definitely a great beauty too!

His old classmate Cheng Yunshu would encounter danger, but there was no rush for that matter.

Luo Wei's gaze fell on the second piece of intelligence. Although he didn't know what was written in Xie Simin's diary.

However, since it was intelligence provided by the system, it was bound to be useful...
