My Wife, The Ice Queen President - Chapter 149

Chapter 149: Chapter 0149: What If I Die (Part 1)_1
Du Yuehua, Yang Xinyi, and Luo Weiwei were the three women who fought the most.

Especially Du Yuehua, who called almost every two hours.

Ye Xiong dialed Du Yuehua’s phone, and just as he spoke, an excited voice came from the other end, “Where the hell have you been all this time, not even answering your phone? Do you know the entire world has been looking for you?”

“Half a month ago I went climbing, and I accidentally fell down a cliff. I was trapped there for the better half of a month until I finally found a way out. These past days, I survived only by eating wild fruits,” Ye Xiong bluffed.

“I don’t like wuxia novels, so don’t think I’ll believe your ghost stories. If you don’t come back to the hotel today, I’m going to jump off the rooftop and die for you to see,” Du Yuehua said angrily and then hung up the phone.

Hearing the usually gentle and refined Du Yuehua being this angry, Ye Xiong felt that his disappearance for the past half a month was indeed a bit excessive.

Then, he dialed Yang Xinyi’s phone.

“Where have you been these days? Your phone was unreachable, and I’ve been to the hotel to look for you several times but didn’t find you,” Yang Xinyi said.

“Half a month ago I went climbing, and I accidentally fell down a cliff. I was trapped for the better half of a month until I finally found a way out. These past days, I survived by eating wild fruits,” Ye Xiong waited to see how Yang Xinyi would react.

“Are you questioning my intelligence with that story?” Yang Xinyi was very dissatisfied with his yarn. “Do you remember what tomorrow is?”

“Could it be our wedding anniversary? That doesn’t make sense, we’ve been married for less than half a year; or could it be the anniversary of our divorce, but it seems we’ve only been divorced for about ten days or so,” Ye Xiong thought hard but couldn’t recall.

“Tomorrow is your little aunt’s housewarming for her new place,” Yang Xinyi reminded him.

Ye Xiong slapped his forehead, then remembered that his little aunt had specially called him, and when he checked his missed calls earlier, there seemed to be a missed call from his little aunt as well.

Suddenly, he fell silent.

“If you don’t want to go, I can explain it to my aunt, saying you’re tied up with work. Or, we can simply tell her we’re divorced,” Yang Xinyi said.

“I’ll go,” Ye Xiong said.

After a long moment, Ye Xiong decided to go.

After all, he hadn’t seen them in a while and he missed the well-endowed mother and daughter.

Especially Tang Ning, he hadn’t seen her in a while and wondered if her boobs had gotten any bigger.

Now that he was divorced from Yang Xinyi, could he perhaps make a move on his fake little aunt…

He realized he was having evil thoughts again.

The third call, he made to Luo Weiwei.

Compared to Yang Xinyi and Du Yuehua, Luo Weiwei was much more composed.

“You’ve been off the grid for a while; have you been fully dedicated to ruining that girl?” Luo Weiwei asked indifferently.

“If I really wanted to ruin someone, you’d be the first,” Ye Xiong repeated his earlier story as an explanation: “Half a month ago I went climbing, and I accidentally fell down a cliff. I was trapped for the better half of a month until I finally found a way out. These past days, I survived by eating wild fruits.”

“That’s quite an interesting story, so did you find the ‘Nine Yang Scripture’ or the ‘Sunflower Manual’ or anything like that at the bottom of the cliff?” Luo Weiwei seemed to have plenty of time to chat nonsense with him.

“You know what, I actually did find something,” Ye Xiong said seriously: “I discovered a valley, and it was like a paradise. If one day we get tired of the deceit and scheming in reality, could we retreat there to live a tranquil life away from worldly strife, have lots of children, with you weaving at home and me farming outside?”

“Seems quite tempting, I might consider it,” Luo Weiwei laughed.

Ye Xiong felt something was off, as Luo Weiwei, who was usually busier than a high-ranking official every time he called, was now suddenly so free to shoot the breeze with him.

Could something have happened?

“Where are you?” Ye Xiong asked.

“At the hospital.”

Ye Xiong dashed to the hospital in a flurry, to find Luo Weiwei lying in a hospital bed, playing with her phone.

Seeing her limbs intact, not missing an arm or leg, her lower leg was simply wrapped with gauze.

Her foot was arched up, evidently not broken.

Upon seeing this, Ye Xiong felt not the slightest bit sad; instead, he burst into hearty laughter.

“Do we even have such a big feud that you would go to this extent?” Luo Weiwei put down her phone, glaring at him with resentment.

“I told you before, with your poor skills, you shouldn’t be working on cracking cases. Now with this injury, you can’t investigate even if you wanted to. How could I not be pleased?”

“I’ve never seen someone as inhumane as you; you have the strength yet deliberately choose not to help. Do you know how many children are going to be taken by the Beast Organization?” Luo Weiwei said angrily.

Ye Xiong fell silent, then after a while, he laughed and said, “Just think of me as a coward, then.”

“Ye Xiong, you’re the strongest person I’ve ever met in my life. If even you won’t take action, who can stop the Beast Organization now? They’ve already openly gone to war with the police. In the past few days, we’ve constantly been obstructed during our investigation. Of Dragon Claw’s three members, Lu Yuan is dead, Hong Tian was slightly injured, and is now lying in the hospital, leaving only Zhu Fang capable of taking any action. Lu Yuan was taken out by a sniper rifle, and Hong Tian was wounded by a mysterious woman at close range. The Beast Organization is too powerful, without you, we simply can’t handle them,” Luo Weiwei said solemnly.

“Why isn’t it Zhu Fang, that wicked woman, who died? Is she too ugly, even Yama King won’t take her?”

“Can’t you take this matter seriously?”

“What do you want me to do?”

“Stand up and face a decisive battle with the Beast Organization.”

“What if I stand up and then I die?” Ye Xiong looked at her, asking, “If I were to die, would you still want me to stand up?”

Luo Weiwei was suddenly silent, after a long while she said, “It’s not that serious, with your strength, it’s not that easy for you to die.”

“You haven’t seen how formidable the Leader of the Beast Organization is.”

Thinking of that mysterious Black-Robed Person, Ye Xiong still couldn’t remain calm.

Phoenix had tracked him for so long and fought him several times. Even when he hadn’t transformed, she still couldn’t defeat him. If he transformed, Phoenix definitely wouldn’t be a match, nor would he likely be.

Unless he transformed as well, then there might still be a chance for a showdown with him.

But having trained for so long, he still couldn’t control his emotions after transforming, so how could he possibly fight him?

“Coward, if it were me, I’d definitely fight them outright,” Luo Weiwei said discontentedly.

“Drop it, tell me how you got injured.”

Luo Weiwei then recounted the process of her injury.

Apparently, two days prior, she and Lu Yuan led a team to investigate and encountered a sniper who killed Lu Yuan on the spot and shot three police officers accompanying her. However, the sniper only wounded her leg.

“I really don’t understand why they didn’t just kill me,” Luo Weiwei wondered.

She might be puzzled, but Ye Xiong understood quite well.

The reason they didn’t kill her was entirely because they feared provoking him by killing Luo Weiwei.

As much as he was wary of the Beast Organization, they were likewise wary of him.

Probably, they also didn’t want to completely fall out with him.

The image of the Black-Robed Person with the Skeleton appearance surfaced once more in Ye Xiong’s mind.

It seemed that a grand battle between the two was inevitable sooner or later.

“Take care of your injury properly, don’t think too much. I’ll consider your suggestion,” he said.

After chatting for a while longer, Ye Xiong turned and left.
