Wen Nian and Shen Jun did not go to the lounge. It was more appropriate for the siblings to meet at this time.

The doctor looked at the door of the lounge and said, “Master Shen, this girl is too seriously injured and has too many old injuries. I’m afraid it’ll be difficult for her to give birth in the future. Moreover, her leg… It is better to send her to the hospital in the capital for a checkup. She’ll definitely have to be hospitalized for a long time.”

“Thank you for your hard work.” Shen Jun politely sent the doctor away, leaving a nurse to take care of Zhao Jia at all times.

Wen Nian looked at the closed door of the lounge and turned to ask, “Can Zhao Jia be sent to the capital? She’s a member of the Jiang family after all. Jiang Wei won’t ignore her.”

“Jiang Wei isn’t a good person. He’ll do anything to achieve his goal.” Shen Jun put his arm around her waist and pulled her into his arms again. “If he cared about Zhao Jia, he wouldn’t have ignored her for so long. But don’t worry, I’ve already arranged it. Tomorrow, I’ll send them back to the capital on a private plane.”

Wen Nian reached out and hugged his waist. She knew that this man was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. He had done a lot to save Zhao Jia. Otherwise, how could Wei Xiao have suffered in the capital so quickly?

If Shen Jun hadn’t intervened, everything wouldn’t have gone so smoothly.

The casino on the cruise ship was destroyed, and the news broke out immediately. It was directly reported by the television station that night, and the Internet was filled with news about the casino.

In fact, the casino had already earned a few million yuan in a few days. Wei Xiao was still a little smug. He wondered if he should expand the casino business, but he didn’t expect such a bombshell to appear.

He was the only one in the Wei family who knew about the casino. The people he trusted were all on the cruise ship, so he didn’t dare to ask around. The casino’s money had been washed clean, so it was impossible for them to find him. At most, it would be Wei Feng who had bought the cruise ship and rented it out. This matter had nothing to do with him.

Thinking of the profits from the cruise ship and the fact that he had spent a lot of money on it, he felt his heart ache. If he had known this would happen, he would have just given the cruise ship to these people in the capital.

Just as he was feeling frustrated, the secretary knocked on the door and walked in. “Vice Chairman, their people are rushing us again. We really can’t hold on anymore. They said that if we don’t pay them, they’ll go to our land to cause trouble. What do you think we should do?”

“Damn it! What else can I do?” Wei Xiao couldn’t let anyone know about the casino. He could only try his best to calm down. Then, he quickly took out the cheque book and wrote a number. “Get someone to tell them to give a portion first. I’ll think of a way to deal with the rest. Tell them not to go too far. At most, we’ll fight to the death. I’ll still be the vice chairman of the Wei Corporation when I return to Hai City!”

The secretary left with the cheque. Wei Xiao sat on the chair with a headache. He was short of money, but how could he get more money?

He didn’t dare to sell the house or land that Wei Feng had left for him. If he was caught, Wei Hai wouldn’t let him off.

Suddenly, he saw the thermos flask on the table. Huang Yue had given it to him back then and instructed him to take care of his health every day. Thinking of Huang Yue, Wei Xiao frowned. He remembered that Huang Yue had told him before that Wu Gang seemed to have something on her. If he could get something on him, wouldn’t it be better to let Wu Gang fork out money?

He quickly sat up straight and contacted his lawyer and driver. He was really going to visit Huang Yue.

Huang Yue was in the detention center, but she seemed to be quite busy recently. Jiang Ning had only left for a few days, but Wei Xiao had already arrived.

However, Huang Yue wasn’t so calm this time. Thinking that it might be Wei Xiao’s doing that she was beaten half to death last time, she really didn’t want to see Wei Xiao.

Seeing the pretentious Wei Xiao in front of her, Huang Yue snorted. “Yo, Young Master Wei, why do you have time to visit me?”

“Yue Yue, you’ve lost weight. Are you not doing well inside? Did they make things difficult for you?” Wei Xiao looked at Huang Yue affectionately, as if she was the woman he loved.

Huang Yue looked at him speechlessly. “Why don’t you come in and give it a try? See if it’ll be easy. Besides, there are people who want my life.”

“What?” Wei Xiao looked furious. “How did this happen? I’ll go look for their leader now.”

Huang Yue said lazily, “Wei Xiao, why didn’t I realize that you were so good at acting in the past? It’s a pity that you didn’t become an actor.”

Wei Xiao wanted to say something, but Huang Yue waved her hand. “If you have something to say, say it quickly. My time in the detention center is very precious..”
