Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

Lin Mo directly turned down the hospital director’s offer of an annual salary of a hundred million yuan.

Even if it was just a nominal position, for Lin Mo, if a hundred million yuan could keep him, then probably every hospital director in Huaxia would be crying and begging Lin Mo to come work for them.

Outside the hospital room, Lin Mo looked seriously at Xu Fei, ”Has your dad offended anyone recently?”

Xu Fei thought about it and then shook his head, ”I can’t think of anyone at the moment, but, I guess it might be a business competitor.”

Then, Xu Fei took a deep breath, his face filled with urgency as he asked, ”By the way, Brother Mo, what exactly is this Blood Curse you mentioned earlier?”

Lin Mo glanced at him, his starry eyes slightly raised as he explained, ”The Blood Curse is a very evil Extraordinary Skill originating from the South Ocean and the Miao Region. It is divided into two main factions, one is witchcraft, and the other is the Gu Curse. The Spellcasters usually wouldn’t use a Blood Curse unless they had a deep-seated vendetta, as it could cause considerable harm to themselves. Another scenario is when they harbor the intent to kill!”

”What?”

Xu Fei’s face showed great fear, ”Then my dad...”

”Don’t worry, I’ve already forced the Blood Curse out of your dad’s body. For now, there’s no life-threatening danger.”

Lin Mo lit a cigarette and said indifferently, ”However, the person who placed the Blood Curse is extremely vicious. If I’m not wrong, he’ll definitely come after me.”

”Then, Brother Mo, won’t you be in danger?”

Xu Fei’s face immediately filled with remorse, ”I’m sorry, Brother Mo, it’s all because I dragged you into this.”

”It doesn’t matter. If he doesn’t come for me, then so be it. But if he dares to provoke me, I will annihilate him!”

In Lin Mo’s indifferent starry eyes surged a deep chill.

The air around them seemed to have suddenly dropped a few degrees.

At that moment, Xu Fei suddenly received a phone call.

After one or two minutes, Xu Fei’s expression turned somewhat ugly.

”What’s wrong?” Lin Mo, noticing his melancholic expression, couldn’t help asking.

”It was a call from Zhang Qian’s mom. She says I need to go there right away, there’s something we have to clear up.”

Xu Fei had a hint of unease in his eyes.

Lin Mo could tell it wasn’t good news and said with a faint smile,

”If I’m not mistaken, the reason Zhang Qian’s mom is looking for you at this time is to ask you to give up on Zhang Qian.”

”Ah...”

Xu Fei heaved a deep sigh and said through clenched teeth, ”But Brother Mo, I really don’t want to lose Qianqian. I’ve already fallen in love with her. If I have to give her up, I don’t know how much it would hurt!”

The Xu Family had just undergone such a major event, and now Zhang Qian’s mother’s phone call was undoubtedly a double blow for Xu Fei.

Yet, wasn’t this also a form of growth for Xu Fei?

Lin Mo watched Xu Fei, his expression unchanged. In fact, what Xu Fei was experiencing now was nothing compared to what he himself had gone through two years ago.

It’s the same for everyone; only when facing absolute despair and the brink of death can one truly grow up.

”The things you have to face, you must confront like a man!”

Lin Mo patted his shoulder and spoke calmly, ”Let’s go. I’ll accompany you.”

”Brother Mo, having a brother like you in this life is a blessing I, Xu Fei, have cultivated over three lifetimes!”

Xu Fei didn’t know what to say, all his thousands of words turned into gratitude.

Half an hour later, the two hailed a taxi to a Five Stars hotel.

After asking at the front desk, Xu Fei and Lin Mo took the elevator up to the eighth floor.

Inside the most luxurious private room on the eighth floor, four people sat: a middle-aged couple, a beautiful girl, and a portly man.

The girl was Zhang Qian, the middle-aged couple were her parents, Xue Li and Zhang Feiping, and the portly man was named Gao Yuan.

Soon, Lin Mo and Xu Fei entered the private room.

When Zhang Qian saw Xu Fei, her previously despondent expression brightened considerably,

”Xu Fei, you’re here?”

As for her parents, Zhang Feiping and Xue Li, both frowned, and the portly man, Gao Yuan, looked at Xu Fei with great disdain.

”Qianqian...”

Xu Fei was also extremely happy, despite the fact that such a grave issue had befallen his family. Seeing the person he loved made even the greatest sorrows evaporate considerably.

This was the power of love.

Xu Fei was quite polite; after affectionately calling Zhang Qian’s name, he immediately bowed slightly to Zhang Yuanping and Xue Li:

”Hello, Uncle and Auntie...”

Xue Li let out a cold snort, her tone somewhat unfriendly,

”Xu Fei, don’t call us so intimately; we’re not that close to you.”

”I called you here today because there is something very important I need to discuss with you.”

A flicker of concern crossed Xu Fei’s heart, but he still politely asked, ”I wonder what it is that Aunt Xue wants to discuss with me?”

Xue Li’s face was cold, looking at Xu Fei with extreme aversion, her tone filled with a severe warning:

”Xu Fei, I’m telling you, from now on, you are not allowed to be near my daughter at all!”

”Also, as of this very moment, you are no longer her boyfriend.”

”You have no relationship with her at all! Do you understand?”

All of a sudden, both Xu Fei and Zhang Qian shuddered, especially Xu Fei, as if he had been struck by thunder.

As for Zhang Qian, her face was full of distress, and she was somewhat angry, ”Mom, what do you mean? Xu Fei and I truly love each other!”

”Shut up!”

Xue Li fiercely glared at Zhang Qian, reprimanding her:

”You foolish girl, don’t you realize what kind of situation the Xu family is in right now?”

”Their family is on the brink of bankruptcy!”

”Before long, he will fall to almost the same level as a beggar! Do you intend to spend your life with this penniless boy?”

Faced with Xue Li’s mockery and denigration, Xu Fei didn’t react with the rage one might expect. Instead, he clenched his fists, his gaze fixed on Zhang Qian with utmost seriousness and affection, sincerely saying, word by word, from the bottom of his heart:

”Auntie, I know that our Xu family is facing a significant crisis; perhaps, the Xu family may never recover from this, and I, Xu Fei, might become a beggar, a penniless boy.”

”But Qianqian and I are sincerely in love. I can’t promise to give Qianqian a future filled with luxury, but I will do everything in my power to struggle and work hard to provide her the life she wants. I will love Qianqian with all my heart, stay by her side when she’s sick, and be there whenever she needs me. I will definitely make her happy...”

Xu Fei spoke with genuine sincerity, deeply moving Zhang Qian, yet before he could finish,

”Enough!”

Xue Li slammed the table, her face ice-cold:

”Xu Fei, that kind of talk may deceive my naively simple daughter, but in my ears, do you know what it means?”

”It’s an absolute joke! Our Qianqian has been brought up in wealth; I will never let her suffer the slightest bit with you!”

”If you have any sense, leave right now!”
