Chapter 111 Wu Youren escapes overnight
The crowd gathered around, now seeing that the main party or protagonist has left, people's interest has also dispersed.
"Everyone, go away! Everything is fine now!"
Driven away by the theater owner, they left one after another, some to listen to the show, some to eat beef, some to brag, and everyone went about their own business.
As the incident unfolded, more and more rumors emerged about the young master of Yongchang Grain Store.
Someone said, "You know what? I heard from my aunt's cousin that the young master of Yongchang Grain Store is very domineering. When he saw someone bullying his wife, he would beat the person half to death before letting him go."
Some people are more obsessed with love, "No, no, I heard from my mistress's cousin's elder brother that 'the young master of Yongchang Grain Store is so young and handsome, as handsome as Pan An.' I really want to meet her. Why am I not the young master's wife?"
A fat woman from the other side said sarcastically, "Forget it! With your looks, you'd be lucky to marry Wang Ermaizi. Only someone like me is worthy of him."
After that, the two of them started fighting over who would be the young mistress, and the fight was fierce.
Someone else said, "The young lady of Yongchang Grain Store is so beautiful. The official who received the goods from the city was so obsessed with her that he wanted to take advantage of her. That shows how beautiful she is! I really want to see her!"
These rumors spread among the people and became a topic of conversation after dinner.
For those wealthy people, this incident also made them curious about the young master of Yongchang Grain Store.
It’s just that the young master of Yongchang Grain Store is too mysterious and there is no news about him at all. Now that we have some clues, it will be easier to find out.
They knew the young man's ability and financial resources, and knew that once they got in touch with him, it would definitely bring them many business opportunities or benefits. Therefore, many wealthy people looked for opportunities to inquire about the movements and other information of the young master of Yongchang Grain Store.
It is said that Wu Youren and his companions, with the help of the theater owner, went to great lengths and overcame many twists and turns and finally arrived at the hospital.
The theater owner was helpless, as something had happened on his territory. Wu Youren was a high-ranking official, and he couldn't afford to offend him, so he had to deal with it.
After thorough and meticulous treatment, Wu Youren and others were each wrapped in bandages like mummies. The scene was quite miserable.
Wu Youren's injuries were even more serious, with six broken ribs and fractured legs. The doctor solemnly told him that he would not be able to get out of bed for at least half a year, which undoubtedly brought him great trouble in life and physical pain.
The confidant who had been arranged by him to get the news rushed to the hospital quickly after hearing the news.
Several hours had passed since Wu Youren was beaten and admitted to the hospital. When the confidant walked into the ward and saw Wu Youren, who was now bound and tightly bandaged, he could not help but feel a trace of contempt and regret.
He thought to himself, "I wonder if I bet on the wrong horse."
He began to doubt his master's ability and luck, and his attitude towards Wu Youren dropped to freezing point.
Wu Youren was also feeling very embarrassed at this moment. He used to be doing very well in the city, but now he was in such a miserable state. It seemed that even his good luck had left him.
Despite this, he still pulled himself together and tried to appease his confidant with false affection, his words full of flattery and cunning.
Faced with Wu Youren's predicament, although this confidant despised him in his heart, he still dealt with it diligently and responsibly on the surface.
He selected key information from the intelligence he had gathered and told Wu Youren: "According to the latest intelligence analysis we just received, the so-called young master of Yongchang Grain Store in Sijiu City is named Hou Ying, not someone else as rumored by the outside world."
"He is only 19 years old and just got married. His wife comes from an ordinary family and does not have a strong family background to support her. What is also puzzling is that Hou Ying obviously has a huge business, but he chose to be a son-in-law."
"Perhaps because of this special identity, most people don't associate him with the real young master of Yongchang Grain Store." The confidant added.
After listening to the report from his confidant, Wu Youren felt as if his heart was hit by a heavy hammer.
"It's over. This young master is still an old coin."
He immediately realized that the person he had offended this time was the core figure of Yongchang Grain Store, Hou Ying. This person had a deep background and acted in a low-key manner, and was definitely not someone who was easy to deal with.
Recalling his previous attempt to blackmail the other party but failed, and being fiercely counterattacked, he later even dared to tease the other person's newlywed wife.
This series of impulsive actions now undoubtedly added fuel to the fire, further exacerbating the already tense relationship.
Wu Youren was wrapped in bandages and his clothes were soaked with blood, but his eyes were like torches, burning with the flame of revenge. He silently said in his heart: "This is the most important task at the moment, I must survive first. As long as I recover and settle down, I will definitely come back and seek justice."
"Don't count on it this year. It will take at least 48 years for me to be free. Why am I so unlucky? I am so unlucky!"
His heart was filled with anticipation, hoping to make a comeback one day and regain his former glory. He carefully planned a revenge plan, hoping to settle all the grudges one by one in the future.
However, he did not expect that in just two years, the Nationalist government would be forced to survive on a small island.
If it were not for the distraction of the international situation, the Nationalist government would have been completely defeated long ago.
Late that night, after Hou Jie coaxed his wife to sleep, he walked with heavy steps to the door of Wu Youren's mansion. His face looked unusually gloomy in the moonlight.
He climbed over the wall and searched around, but still couldn't find Wu Youren.
Hou Jie originally thought that he could solve everything smoothly, but he didn't expect to come to nothing. This made him feel depressed like surging waves.
"It's still a little late to act. Wu Youren, this trouble, has escaped. With this unstable factor, we must be prepared."
Hou Jie looked around and angrily packed up the items in the mansion one by one, leaving nothing behind, as if he could vent his anger and dissatisfaction on these items.
At the same time, he also knew that this incident did not mean the end, but a new beginning. With this villain watching over him, there would definitely be less trouble in the future.
The next morning, Hou Jie regained some of his spirit. He summoned Wu Laoqi and solemnly instructed him, "Wu Laoqi, from now on, strengthen the security of my family and make sure they are safe. Especially Chunhua. Also, search for Wu Youren's whereabouts."
"Okay, Boss, I'll give the order right away."
Wu Laoqi nodded in agreement, knowing the importance of the matter.
However, Hou Jie was not reassured by this.
"Wu Youren is a cunning fox. It's difficult to find him when he hides himself."
