Chapter 569: Chapter 569: Exchange 3 Million For His Son

"Sir Bai had brought some business for my establishment. I did not dare to ask much. Only 5,000 taels will be enough." Si Yingjie said.

"Okay." Bai Xifeng nodded.

Before Bai Xifeng left, she turned to Si Yingjie. "I am going to leave this city in a few days. I hope your business will be prospered."

"Thank you, Sir Bai." Si Yingjie said.

Even though Si Yingjie did not want Bai Xifeng to leave, he was just an acquaintance of Bai Xifeng.

The next morning, the news exploded. People found out that the Wei Family had been robbed. Their warehouse had been empty. The next part was still coming. They found out that the heir, the young master Wei Zhaohui had been missing.

They had been looking for him. Finally, they received some information telling them that their young master had been in a Xiaoxiao Brothel House, a male brothel. If he went there as a customer, it would be slightly fine. But he was the courtesan who received the customers.

The Wei Family found out that he had received two customers within one day. The chosen heir, Wei Zhaohui had been tainted by other men. When they went to get back to Wei Zhaohui, the manager there smiled as he demanded some money from Wei Zhaohui.

Wei Zhaohui’s father, Wei Canbo who came to rescue his son, gritted his teeth as he asked how much the manager wanted exchanged for his son’s freedom.

The manager smiled as he raised three fingers. Wei Canbo realized this when he saw the amount.

"Fine. I will prepare three thousand taels for it." Wei Canbo said.

"Master Wei, are you joking? That is not enough." The manager said.

"Then, how much do you want? Thirteen thousand? Thirty thousand?" Wei Canbo asked.

The manager shook his head as Wei Canbo mentioned the amount. "3 million taels. Not more, not less."

"What? 3 million?" Wei Canbo was shocked when heard the amount. "Do you want to rob me?" He asked gritting his teeth again and again.

"Well... That is my request. Well... It is okay if you can not afford it. Your son is quite popular. I think if he spends two to three months here, he might reach the amount." The manager said.

Wei Canbo glared at the manager angrily. If the glare could kill others, the manager might already lose his life. He wanted to kill this manager. However, he knew that he could not do it. This male brothel had a strong backing. Offending the backing could get him killed.

Seeing Wei Canbo did not agree to his demand, the manager wanted to stand up.

"Fine. I will pay 3 million taels for my son." Wei Canbo said.

"Great. Nice to do business with you." The manager said.

Wei Canbo coughed out 3 million that he had been saved. He did not expect the money would be used in this kind of situation. After settling the payment, Wei Canbo requested to give back his son.

The manager asked his men to bring Wei Zhaohui. Wei Zhaohui was still unconscious. Wei Canbo was shocked to his son like that. He was undressed properly.

"You..." Wei Canbo took out his robe and covered his son.

"I am sorry, Master Wei. It is also your fault since we are rushing us." The manager did not show any sign of guilt.

Wei Canbo asked some people to take Wei Zhaohui away. Before Wei Canbo left, he spoke to the manager once more again.

"I don’t want the news about this spread." Wei Canbo gave a warning.

"Master Wei, we are not that kind of person." The manager showed a hurt expression on his face.

Well, the manager thought. ’It will not be me spreading the news but others.’

When Wei Canbo arrived in the city, the news about Wei Zaohui had been another topic of conversation. He found out when he entered the teahouse to drink some tea. They were laughing and mocking Wei Zhaohui.

Wei Canbo did not have time to drink tea anymore. He rushed back home. Patriarch Wei was waiting for them.

"How is it?" Patriarch Wei asked.

"We got Zhaohui back but he had already been tainted by other men." Wei Canbo felt nausea when he mentioned the topic. Then he continued. "Not only that, people seemed to find out about that as well. His reputation had been destroyed."

"What? How can this be?" Patriarch Wei is on the table.

The table cracked.

"I don’t know. They seemed to have their ways." Wei Canbo said.

"They want to destroy our family. First, our warehouse had been robbed. And not this matter... What is going on?" Patriarch Wei smacked the table again.

The poor table could not stand the pressure anymore destroyed to pieces.

"Canbo, what did Zhaohui do recently?" Patriarch Wei asked.

"I don’t know much about that. However, I remembered that he went to the Taming Beast Sect to see his uncle. I don’t know what they were discussing about." Wei Canbo said.

"Call Wei Sanyie back." Patriarch Wei ordered.

Wei Sanyie was Wei Zhaohui’s uncle. He was the Taming Beast Master.

Patriarch Wei had to investigate this matter. He needed to know the reason. The key was with Wei Sanyie since Wei Zhaohui was in that state.

Bai Xifeng and others also happened to find out about Wei Zhaohui. They laughed when they heard about that.
