Chapter 1114 — Yunhai Shuku's Idea
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Yu Yuanyuan's mother had been wearing a worried frown these past two days as well. She had already learned of what had befallen Yunhai Shuku and Yu Yuanyuan. Though she was furious that Yunhai Shuku had gone to bet on fights, things had come to this pass, and there was nothing she could do but accept her fate.
The Yu family's security door had already been repaired — the cheapest contractor-grade door, the kind torn out after new apartment renovations. Even so, it had cost three hundred yuan, which pained Yu Yuanyuan's mother deeply.
Mother Yu knew that Yu Yuanyuan's days at home were numbered, that Master Li would soon come to take her away. So these past two days she had quit her job as a nanny, planning to spend a few more days at home with Yu Yuanyuan.
She had cooked the meal and was waiting for Yu Yuanyuan and Yunhai Shuku to come home. But she waited and waited, and still no one came. It was already an hour past the normal end of the workday, and Mother Yu finally could not help but dial Yu Yuanyuan's cell phone.
"Mom, is something the matter?" Yu Yuanyuan's voice was much lighter now, a complete change from the gloom of the past few days. Though this affair might not be over just because Master Li was dead, it seemed eighty percent likely to be resolved, so Yu Yuanyuan was very happy. This feeling of freedom was wonderful!
"Yuanyuan, where are you? Why aren't you home yet?" Hearing her daughter's voice, Mother Yu breathed a sigh of relief. She had thought Yu Yuanyuan would be taken away by Master Li today, but it seemed that was not the case.
"Mom, Dad and I are on our way home right now. We have a guest at the house today. When I get back, I'll tell you some good news!" Yu Yuanyuan glanced at Er Goudan and said to her mother.
"Oh? Good news?" Mother Yu was startled. Given the Yu family's current situation, there was precious little that could be called good news. Could there have been a turn in the matter of Master Li? At this thought, Mother Yu quickly asked, "Yuanyuan, has something changed with Master Li's business?"
"We're on the bus right now, too many people around to talk. I'll tell you when we get home." Yu Yuanyuan was no fool. Though a death in the underground fight ring was nothing much, she could not go around talking about it in public, lest she bring trouble down on Er Goudan.
The underground fight ring, at this moment, was in complete chaos!
Little Mule had never imagined that the incomparably arrogant Master Li could actually be killed with a single punch by a young man called "Grandpa Dog Egg"! This was simply too bizarre!
Little Mule hastily had the underground fight ring's staff carry Master Li's corpse away and told the two previous fighters to continue their match, so as not to affect the audience's betting. Having arranged all this, Little Mule hurriedly ran toward the underground fight ring's office.
An Liwen had by now also learned from the surveillance footage of everything that had happened outside the ring. Master Li's death was beyond his expectations as well! He had never imagined that Master Li could be killed with a single punch! Was he not an external-school expert at the peak of mid-stage Profound Rank? How could he die just like that?
"Young Master Wen, bad news — Master Li has been beaten to death!" Little Mule stumbled and staggered into An Liwen's office and reported to him.
"I know, I saw it on the surveillance footage!" An Liwen frowned and waved a hand. In fact, he had known the moment Er Goudan walked in. He had been watching everything unfold outside through the surveillance feed the whole time — he just had never expected this newcomer to be so ferocious!
