Chapter 150: Chapter 150: The Brother Who Sleeps in the Bunk Above Me

Wu Xia’s complexion turned a ghastly shade of ashen.

Before him stood Chen Chaoyang, his college dormmate who used to sleep in the bunk above him, his best brother.

A top student at the university, he had been fought over by various major hospitals even before graduation and eventually made it into the provincial capital’s top hospital.

When Huang Lei framed Wu Xia, Chen Chaoyang had spoken out in Wu Xia’s defense, even pulling some strings to invite Wu Xia to join him at the provincial capital hospital.

How could such an outstanding person fall to such depths?

Wu Xia quickly hung his head, not daring to meet Chen Chaoyang’s gaze for fear of embarrassment.

But the landlady didn’t care about that, raising her voice to say, "Come here, Chen, this is your hard-earned money from last night, take it!"

She pulled out a stack of bills and handed about ten to Chen Chaoyang, then yanked him over.

"Go on, tell the young man how working with me means easy money and comfort!"

Chen Chaoyang’s hand trembled as he took the money, and when he lifted his head, his face instantly turned ghostly pale.

"Wu... Wu Xia?"

"Oh, you recognize him!" exclaimed the landlady, suddenly delighted, "Well that’s great!"

She then took out another handful of bills and tossed them to Chen Chaoyang, "Come on, Chen, go talk some sense into him. If you two take care of me together, I’ll give you double, no, triple the money!"

With his face burning and ears tingling with shame, Chen Chaoyang quickly took the money, bolted from the room, and started dragging Wu Xia towards the exit.

"Hey, where are you running off to? So, are you in or not? I don’t have all day to wait for you guys!" yelled the landlady from behind.

The sleazy tone of the landlady’s voice followed them.

Chen Chaoyang, gripping Wu Xia’s hand, sprinted out of the basement, out of the complex, and onto the main road outside before finally stopping, panting heavily.

Wu Xia looked at Chen Chaoyang with a complicated expression, wondering how this man, once a brilliant student full of ambition, could end up a gigolo.

After panting for a while, Chen Chaoyang finally steadied himself, clutched Wu Xia’s hand tightly, and then pulled Wu Xia into an embrace, hugging him fiercely.

"Brother, it’s been a long time. I thought you had left Hai City," he said.

Wu Xia also responded, embracing Chen Chaoyang, "Chaoyang, how did you end up on this path? Weren’t you recruited by a hospital in the provincial capital?"

"Alas!" Chen Chaoyang sighed deeply, looking down, "It’s a long story. I need to hurry to work now, but after I get off work, I’ll find you. We can have a couple of drinks and talk at length."

Wu Xia seemed about to say more but stopped, and eventually, he and Chen Chaoyang exchanged phone numbers before parting ways.

As he left, Chen Chaoyang didn’t forget to warn Wu Xia, "Brother, don’t agree to that old woman’s proposal. No matter how hard or tiring it gets, don’t go down this path. Once you do, there’s no turning back."

After speaking, he dashed towards the bus stop, anxious to get to work.

Watching Chen Chaoyang’s retreating figure, Wu Xia felt a mix of emotions, an indescribable sense of meaning.

What had happened to the once high-achieving student?

It wasn’t until Chen Chaoyang’s figure had disappeared for quite a while that Wu Xia collected his thoughts; he had matters to attend to himself, and would sit down with Chen Chaoyang for a talk in the evening.

First, Wu Xia had something to eat, then he brought food back for Wang Zhiruo and Zhang Lin.

The two women currently could not leave the Extremely Yin Land. Even though the environment was harsh, Wu Xia still had to fulfill their dietary needs.

"Xia, we both feel really uncomfortable, can you let us go home to take a shower?" asked Wang Zhiruo, touching her sticky body with a helpless look on her face.

The basement was equipped with a communal bathroom, which was very inconvenient.

"No!"

Wu Xia decisively refused, "Your situation is too complicated right now. If you leave this place, you will definitely expose yourselves."

"I’m not afraid of danger; I’m worried about those hidden in the shadows, who may suddenly attack when you’re least expecting it, and you’re not their match at all!"

Wang Zhiruo and Zhang Lin couldn’t help but stick out their tongues in resignation.

"Then please go back and bring us our clothes and cosmetics!"

"Sure!" Wu Xia nodded, as he could satisfy this request.

"Okay, I’ll go back and get them for you right away."

Wu Xia vanished from the spot, first returning to Wujia Gully to tell Lin Jiao and the others that he had some issues to deal with recently and would be delayed for a while, so they should not worry.

Then he went to Zhang Lin’s place in the town, packed up all her belongings, and went back to the city villa to pack up Wang Zhiruo’s things.

Just as Wu Xia had finished packing and was ready to return to the basement, a din suddenly arose outside.

"Miss, Mr. Wu is not at home. It’s useless waiting like this. You should go back first. When he returns, you can come back then!"

"Yeah, Miss, you’ve been waiting for a day and a night already. Mr. Wu really isn’t at home; we haven’t seen him come back at all!"

"You don’t need to mind me. I’ll just wait here until he returns!"

The familiar voice made Wu Xia frown slightly. Looking through Wang Zhiruo’s window, he saw Su Yuxuan standing coldly at his villa’s doorway, dressed in tight black clothing.

With a helpless shake of his head, Wu Xia flashed back into his own villa and pushed open the door.

"Ah?"

The property management security guards all widened their eyes in shock. They knew that the Wu family had left by car and hadn’t come back at all, yet Wu Xia had just walked out from inside.

But their professional ethic prevented them from asking too much, and they quickly explained, "Mr. Wu, this lady says she’s your friend and has been waiting here for you!"

"Mm-hmm!" Wu Xia nodded. "In the future, if she comes, you can let her in directly; it’s okay!"

When Su Yuxuan saw Wu Xia, a cold light flickered in her eyes. She pushed past the security in front of her and walked straight into the house.

Wu Xia shook his head, had the security leave, and then closed the door.

Whoosh!

No sooner had the door closed than Su Yuxuan pulled out a dagger from her pocket and stabbed straight at Wu Xia.

"Ah! Give me back my husband!"

Wu Xia dodged quickly and grabbed Su Yuxuan’s wrist with one hand, while wrapping his other arm around her waist.

"Wasn’t your husband accidentally killed by you? He’s dead; there’s no use looking for him!"

Su Yuxuan’s face turned ashen as she struggled desperately, but she was no match for Wu Xia, who firmly controlled her.

"Wu Xia, you beast! You’ve already done indecent things to me; what more do you want?"

"Even if my husband is dead, please return his body to me!"

A sinister smile appeared on Wu Xia’s face. While he had been with many beautiful women and had ceaseless lovemaking lately,

He was still very interested when faced with the woman of his dreams.

"I still want to fuck you!"

"You..."

Su Yuxuan’s face turned a deep shade of blue, but she soon calmed down: "As long as you return my husband’s body to me, you can do whatever you want to me!"

"Really?" Wu Xia was even more excited, snatching the knife from Su Yuxuan’s hand and tossing it to the ground, and then he grabbed her ample breasts.

"Then take care of me until I’m satisfied, and I’ll give your husband back to you!"
