Chapter 1199 – Xiao Ji’s Deduction

Looking at Chu Pengzhan’s face, Xiao Ji and Xiao Ben exchanged a glance and smiled. It looked like Gou Huli’s news was accurate; Lin Yi was indeed in the hospital!

“What’s wrong, Uncle Chu?” Lin Yi heard Chu Pengzhan’s cry in surprise and froze, “Did something happen to Yaoyao?”

“Yaoyao?” Chu Pengzhan quickly calmed down. He panicked because he was worried, but now that he calmed down, he thought, why would Lin Yi ask about Yaoyao if he was really injured? He didn’t sound like he was injured at all! Chu Pengzhan quickly asked, “Little Yi, what are you doing at the hospital?”

“Oh, my friend’s mother is injured and I’m paying her a visit,” Lin Yi said, “Uncle Chu, did something happen?”

“Nothing, it’s okay,” Chu Pengzhan heard Lin Yi’s words and sighed in relief. Lin Yi was fine, meaning that House Xiao’s news was wrong. But since they knew that Lin Yi was in the hospital, it meant that they had eyes there.

“So? I wasn’t wrong, was I? That brat, Lin Yi, is in the hospital!” Xiao Ji was pleased.

“Haha, indeed he went to the hospital. But he’s there to help someone with their injuries, not because he’s injured,” Chu Pengzhan smiled lightly and became more confident, “I’m afraid that Mr. Xiao’s news is wrong?”

“Pretend, keep pretend!” Xiao Ji mocked Chu Pengzhan and sneered, “Chu Pengzhan, you were panicking and it sold you out. Stop pretending, Songshan is only so big, how will you be able to seal the news away from everyone?”

“Whatever you say. Mr. Xiao, there’s nothing I can do if you insist on thinking so,” Chu Pengzhan shrugged, “I’m busy, please do as you wish.”

“Chu Pengzhan, don’t fail to appreciate my kindness!” Xiao Ji heard that Chu Pengzhan was chasing them away, he immediately raged, “Don’t make us force you!”

“Mr. Xiao, give it all you have. If it’s simply attacking my business, then do as you wish,” Chu Pengzhan smiled, “If you want to keep threatening me here, do so. I’ll be doing my work, you can continue with it!”

“Chu Pengzhan! Just you wait! I’ll make you kneel down for forgiveness!” Xiao Ji was furious. How could Chu Pengzhan be so firm in a situation like this?

“Brother, if Mr. Chu is so stubborn, then there’s nothing we can do,” Xiao Ben replied indifferently, “But public security seemed to be bad recently. I’ve heard that there are people missing? Lin Yi’s injured, be careful that your daughter will stray away…”

“Xiao Ben, what do you mean?” Chu Pengzhan frowned. No matter how placid he had shown he was, it didn’t mean he didn’t know how to get angry, “Xiao Ben, are you forcing me? Don’t think that I, Chu Pengzhan, is scared of you just because you have two masters from House P!”

Chu Pengzhan was confident when he said this. When House Pi’s masters first came to House Xiao, he discussed this with Uncle Fu. When he heard that Uncle Fu regained his powers, he was relieved!

Uncle Fu said that he was now an internal master and he could match an external style master of a level, or someone who’s at the first stage of mystic division! If not, they had General Weiwu, a dog at the peak of the final stage of golden division. No matter what, two of them should be able to kill those masters at the first stage of mystic division!

And Lin Yi, who was at the middle stage of mystic division, he could somewhat compete with an external style master at the peak of the final stage of mystic division. If he fought with all he’s got, he wouldn’t necessarily lose. Hence, he wasn’t scared of House Xiao at all after confirming that Lin Yi was fine.

“Well, very well! Chu Pengzhan, just wait and see!” Xiao Ben nodded without speaking further as he dragged his brother out of Chu Pengzhan’s office.

Although Chu Pengzhan also believed that Lin Yi was injured, how did he become so confident? The panic in Chu Pengzhan’s eyes didn’t escape Xiao Ben’s observations. So what did Lin Yi say to him?

Xiao Ben was smarter then Xiao Ji and he thought, did they neglect something?

After leaving the door, Xiao Ji was still cursing, “Brother, why is Chu Pengzhan so stupid? Does he really think that Lin Yi could save him?”

“Brother, this is strange…” Xiao Ben pondered and replied, “Chu Pengzhan’s shock when he heard that Lin Yi was at the hospital wasn’t fake but he was still so confident, why is that?”

“Well, that’s reasonable. Is there something behind it?” Xiao Ji calmed down and thought that Xiao Ben was reasonable. Although his personality was rather straightforward and rough, he often listened to Xiao Ben.

“Let me think…” Xiao Ben sat in the car, closed his eyes and put his hands on his temples. He thought that something was really strange.

Xiao Ji didn’t disturb him and settled next to Xiao Ben, ordering the driver, “Let’s go.”

“House owner, are we going back home or the hospital?” The driver didn’t know where to go and asked.

“Hospital… That’s right, hospital!” Xiao Ben suddenly cried and opened his eyes.

“Second master, are we going to the hospital?” The driver heard Xiao Ben’s exclaimed and jumped before asking carefully.

“No, home!” Xiao Ben said, then turned to Xiao Ji, “Brother, I think I understand now!”

“Oh?” Xiao Ji quickly asked, “Brother, what’s going on?”

“Isn’t Lin Yi at the hospital now? Old Pi and Mr. Pi are both there too. Do you think that Lin Yi bumped into them?” Xiao Ben analysed, “If Lin Yi knows that Old Pi and Mr. Pi are both injured too, he wouldn’t be scared, would he? Chu Pengzhan wouldn’t have to worry too because our masters are also in the hospital!”

“That’s possible!” Xiao JI heard Xiao Ben’s words and nodded convincingly, “That should be it! But we booked single rooms, how did Lin Yi see them?”

“I don’t know, but of course, this is only a guess,” Xiao Ben continued, “There’s another possibility, and that’s Lin Yi’s injuries, he can recover quickly. So even if Chu Pengzhan knows that Lin Yi is injured, he’s not afraid of us!”

“Oh? He can recover quickly?” Xiao Ji muttered.

“Yes. Do you remember what happened last time? Lin Yi was severely injured by Ma Zhu? I don’t think it’s fake, everything went smoothly when we went to look for trouble and almost forced Chu Pengzhan into a dead end, but Lin Yi suddenly appeared, killed House Yu’s men, injured Uncle Pi as if nothing happened. What does that say about him?” Xiao Ben frowned.
