Chapter 335 Going to the Theater

Xu Xuan asked again, "Hurry up and tell me, is there anything else?"

Xiao Wu continued, "Until today, the people from Chunxiang Pavilion have finally made a move, so I immediately came to report to you, young master."

Xu Xuan listened for a long time but didn't get to the point. He tapped Xiao Wu and said, "Stop talking nonsense and get to the point."

Xiao Wu rubbed his head, finally stopping his nonsense, and said, "Today, the madam of Chunxiang Pavilion, along with that man named Shitou and some other people, went to the home of the woman who kidnapped Young Master Lin and his companions."

"From my observation, they're probably looking for trouble."

"We've finally waited for this day." Xu Xuan clapped his hands, his face full of interest.

Xu Xuan and Lin Shao had no intention of letting the woman and her accomplices go. As for why they didn't take action against the two, it was because they knew that because of these two, they had caused such a big mess for Chunxianglou, and the madam of Chunxianglou would definitely not let them off easily.

Rather than taking matters into their own hands, Lin Shao and his companions preferred to let them suffer the consequences of their actions while they watched the show unfold.

Seeing Xu Xuan about to leave, Xiao Wu quickly asked, "Young Master, where are you going?"

Xu Xuan rolled his eyes at Xiao Wu and said, "Of course we're going to see a show."

"what?"

"What do you mean, 'ah'?" Xu Xuan said, "If you're not going, I'll go by myself... Never mind, you'd better not go."

Xiao Wu: "..."

Xiao Wu said, "Young Master, please don't do anything else..."

Xu Xuan interrupted Xiao Wu, saying, "I'm leaving now." If he didn't leave, Xiao Wu could continue nagging.

After leaving his room, Xu Xuan thought for a moment and then went to the room where Lin Shao and the others were staying. He figured that Lin Shao and the others must also be eager to see the play.

However, upon arriving at Lin Shao's courtyard, they only saw Lin Shao; the other four seemed to be there as well.

Xu Xuan scratched his head and asked, "Lin Shao, where are your four brothers?"

Lin Shao saw that it was Xu Xuan and stood up, saying, "They're all not here. Do you need to see them?"

"It's nothing much," Xu Xuan chuckled and said, "I mainly wanted to invite you guys to go see a play together."

"Watching a play?" Lin Shao asked, puzzled.

Xu Xuan smiled mysteriously and told Lin Shao about having Xiao Wu look at houses, saying, "Do you want to go?"

Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Shao replied, "Of course I want to."

Lin Shao was eager to see the woman who had kidnapped them before, as well as her accomplices, suffer the consequences of their actions; his interest was no less than Xu Xuan's.

"Should we call the four of them over to come along?"

"No need," Lin Shao said. "The others have gone out and won't be back for a while. The two of us will go, and we can tell them what we saw when we get back."

"That's okay too."

After they finished speaking, the two went to the woman's house.

As they passed the swing area in the yard, the two saw He Fei and Chen Feng.

Chen Feng's gaze towards He Fei was quite obvious, making Xu Xuan feel a bit nauseous. At the same time, he secretly clicked his tongue in his heart. He had seen the situation between Chen Feng and He Fei for a long time. As for the fact that Chen Feng hadn't won He Fei over yet, Xu Xuan felt quite smug.

As soon as Xu Xuan and Lin Shao arrived, Chen Feng noticed them and also saw the gloating in Xu Xuan's eyes. Chen Feng suddenly felt an itch to take action.

He Fei also looked up from her book and saw Xu Xuan and Lin Shao. Chen Feng asked, "Where are you two going?"

After greeting Chen Feng and He Fei, Lin Shao politely said, "Xu Xuan and I have something to do and need to go out for a while, so we won't disturb Teacher Chen and his wife."

Before He Fei could even object to being addressed as "teacher's wife," Chen Feng said, "Then you should go ahead. Remember to come back soon."

"Yes."

After the two of them were left alone again, He Fei looked a little awkward. When she looked up, she saw Chen Feng with a big smile on his face.

He Fei casually started a conversation and asked, "When are you going back to the Martial Arts Academy?"

"Does Fei'er really want me to leave?" Chen Feng said, expressing his displeasure.

“No.” He Fei touched her nose. “I was just asking.”

"It'll be around this time," Chen Feng said. "I'll go back after I finish dealing with the shops at Xinyuelou."

When Chen Feng looked at He Fei, his face was full of reluctance, because He Fei saw it as well.

He Fei hesitated for a moment, then said, "I'll go to the Martial Arts Academy to find you after everything in the clan is settled."

Chen Feng was instantly overjoyed and exclaimed with delight, "Are you serious?"

"Ah."

Chen Feng stared intently at He Fei and said, "Fei'er, I'm waiting for you."

……

When Xu Xuan and Lin Shao arrived at the woman's house, the madam's people had not yet arrived.

"Why haven't they come yet?"

Xu Xuan said, "Let's wait a little longer."

The distance between Chunxiang Pavilion and here is shorter than that between Xinyue Pavilion and here, so the madam and her entourage should arrive in a while.

The two didn't wait long before they heard footsteps coming from afar. Xu Xuan exclaimed excitedly, "They're here!"

To enjoy the play properly, the two men perched on a tree outside the woman's house, where they had a good view and wouldn't be seen by the madam, allowing them to watch the play to their heart's content.

As the woman was cursing and swearing in the yard, she heard footsteps outside the door—the footsteps of many people. Her companion was terrified: "Could it be those same people coming to find us again?"

“Definitely not,” the woman said. “Since they released us before, they certainly wouldn’t come looking for us again, otherwise they wouldn’t have released us in the first place.”

The woman and her accomplices had previously thought that Lin Shao and his group would send them to the government or take revenge on them, but when they woke up, they found that they were not in an unfamiliar place or in the government's prison, but in their own home, and Xu Xuan and his group were nowhere to be seen.

They were terrified at the time, but after waiting for a long time without seeing them return, they assumed that Lin Shao and the others had taken pity on them and let them go.

As for why they haven't gone out recently, it's because they've been recuperating at home. During this time, after being taught a lesson by Lin Shao and his group, they don't dare to go out and do human trafficking again for a while, for fear of encountering such tough guys again. They plan to take a break before continuing.

However, since both of them had tried to shift the blame onto each other in front of Lin Shao, even while they were recovering from their injuries, they were wary of each other and would occasionally have a verbal or physical argument with each other.

"Go out and see what's going on," the woman said to her accomplice.

"Why should I open the door?" his accomplice retorted. "Go yourself if you want, I'm not going."

The woman wanted to slap her companion, but then she realized that he was no longer under her control, and if she slapped him, the two of them would definitely start fighting again. So she reluctantly lowered her hand, cursing under her breath.
