Chapter 786: Chapter 786

Zhang Yang naturally had no objections; instead, he wanted to see what else Eldest Young Master Xu could come up with.

In the evening, Zhang Yang was having a video call with Xiao Man in his room.

Although Xiao Man only had five minutes each day, Zhang Yang was especially looking forward to it.

However, that day he was locked in a dark room for an entire day and night, unable to contact Xiao Man.

Zhang Yang could only find an excuse saying he was busy, his phone ran out of battery, and it was turned off.

But today, as soon as the video call started, Zhang Yang saw Xiao Man’s red and swollen eyes.

"Xiao Man, what’s wrong? Did they bully you?"

Xiao Man shook her head, "No, they didn’t do anything to me. They even treated me with good food and drinks, I’ve gained three pounds."

"Haha, it’s free food if you don’t eat it, ask them for whatever you want, just like when we used to go to buffets, eat to get your money’s worth."

Zhang Yang joked, trying to cheer Xiao Man up.

But suddenly, Xiao Man couldn’t hold back and started crying.

Zhang Yang’s heart tightened, but before he could speak, Xiao Man asked worriedly, "Zhang Yang, are you in pain?"

Zhang Yang was taken aback, "What pain? I’m perfectly fine, aren’t I?"

"Zhang Yang, today they showed me a video of you being tortured. Zhang Yang, I hate them; they’re too much."

Zhang Yang’s gaze darkened. These bastards, they actually showed Xiao Man such a video?

But Zhang Yang also gleaned some information from it, was the Qingyi Sect involved in this? Even if they weren’t directly involved, they surely had connections with the Xu Family.

"Xiao Man, don’t cry. You know me well, right? How could I suffer such a big loss? I’ve already given those scoundrels a good thrashing."

Xiao Man said with heartache, "I didn’t want to cry, but I feel so bad for you."

"Zhang Yang, these people are really terrible, what should we do?"

Zhang Yang felt somewhat helpless. He still hadn’t found Xiao Man’s whereabouts yet. Although nothing had happened so far, who knows when these people might use Xiao Man to threaten him.

Right now, it seemed they were afraid he would fight back desperately, so they’ve been holding off on moving against Xiao Man.

But this Xu Family, it might be a clue.

This made Zhang Yang more determined to use the Xu Family as a breakthrough point.

"Xiao Man, don’t worry, I’ll find a way to rescue you."

Xiao Man shook her head, "Zhang Yang, today they also told me some things."

"What did they say?" Zhang Yang knew that since the other side showed Xiao Man such a video, they must have a purpose.

"They said, many people are already targeting you now, saying you can’t handle it alone, and only if we help them find what they want quickly, can we return to a peaceful life."

"They said this was only the beginning, and things will only get more complicated for you."

"But not every time will you be so lucky to escape."

It was clear Xiao Man was scared.

These people were trying to use Xiao Man to persuade him.

Zhang Yang gritted his teeth, "Xiao Man, you tell them, I don’t even know what they are looking for. If they really have the guts, they should look for it themselves."

Xiao Man wiped away her tears and said determinedly, "Zhang Yang, I’m telling you this not because I want you to compromise, I just want to tell you that if good people get bullied, then just become a bad person."

"Zhang Yang, hit them back hard, don’t worry about me."

Xiao Man said this through gritted teeth, she absolutely would not allow Zhang Yang to be bullied like this.

But now, Zhang Yang could only rely on himself.

Zhang Yang smiled slightly, this was the Xiao Man he knew, never admitting defeat.

"Alright, I promise you, tell them to wait, and not let us find them, otherwise see how I deal with them. I’m telling you, next, I’m going to retaliate."

Five minutes passed quickly, before hanging up, Xiao Man also cheered Zhang Yang on, "Be careful!"

After ending the call, Zhang Yang’s mood was not great.

Coincidentally, at this moment, Xu Caimei’s voice came from outside the door, "Zhang Yang, come out for dinner."

Zhang Yang put down his phone and walked out, Li Lei was sitting there in casual clothes, with Eldest Young Master Xu sitting beside her.

Xu Yang came downstairs, and this time he changed his previous attitude, holding Li Lei’s hand with a face full of apologies.

Li Lei pulled her hand back, "You really went too far today."

"Mom, I really know I was wrong." Xu Yang grabbed Li Lei’s hand again.

"Just forgive me this time, from now on I’ll listen to you."

Next to them, Eldest Young Master Xu slightly frowned, then said to Xu Yang, "Alright, you’re not a kid anymore. If you apologize, apologize properly, don’t be touchy-feely with your mom."

Xu Yang smiled, glanced at Eldest Young Master Xu without a trace, then sat down.

Li Lei frowned slightly, then said, "You should apologize to your sister."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yang eagerly went over to Xu Caimei, attempting to grab her hand too.

Xu Caimei quickly reacted, stepping back, and said with disdain, "Stay away. I don’t accept your apology. For Auntie’s sake, I’m too lazy to argue with you."

Xu Yang’s eyes narrowed slightly, but suddenly took a step forward, forcefully grabbing Xu Caimei’s shoulder.

His speed was fast, even with Xu Caimei’s reaction, she couldn’t dodge in time.

But in the next second, Zhang Yang pulled her behind him with one hand, "What are you trying to do?"

Zhang Yang stared at Xu Yang with interest and questioned.

"I’m apologizing to my sister, none of your damn business."

"Didn’t you hear her say get lost?" Zhang Yang didn’t give Xu Yang any face.

Xu Yang chuckled coldly, "This is my house, Zhang Yang, you’re the one who should get lost."

Over there, Li Lei immediately scolded, "Enough, I asked you to apologize, not to cause trouble. Come back and eat quietly."

"Okay, Mom!" Xu Yang ran back grinning.

Zhang Yang frowned slightly, something was off. Xu Yang was behaving strangely.

Zhang Yang turned to Xu Caimei secretly and said, "Keep an eye on Xu Yang, something’s not right with him."

Xu Caimei was startled, then nodded.

The two of them then went to the dining table and sat down.

Eldest Young Master Xu said, "Don’t be shy, let’s eat."

Li Lei asked, "Why are you so free these days, why not go fishing?"

Eldest Young Master Xu said, "I just wanted to stay home and keep an eye on our son."

"At least you have some decency, our son is about to graduate, should he go for further studies or help out at the company, what do you think is more appropriate?"

"You decide," Eldest Young Master Xu said casually.

"Why is it always me making the decisions? Don’t you have any opinions?" Li Lei said, a bit dissatisfied.

But inwardly, she breathed a sigh of relief, Eldest Young Master Xu’s response was the usual one.

Then Li Lei looked at Xu Yang, "What do you think?"

But Xu Yang didn’t respond, just stared intently at Xu Caimei.
