Chapter 223 Should we get rid of him?

Considering that Shen Baisu was a cultivator, Shen Wenxu was no longer surprised that Huo Yuchen thought Shen Baisu would save people.

But did Huo Yuchen know she was a cultivator?
Thinking of what Shen Mingyu had told him before, about Shen Baisu pestering Huo Yuchen to lick her, Shen Wenxu's expression became subtle.

Could it be that... Huo Yuchen knew about Shen Baisu's identity a long time ago?
Shen Wenxu leaned toward the guess that Huo Yuchen already knew Shen Baisu's identity as a cultivator. After all, if he didn't know, how would Huo Yuchen know that Shen Baisu could save people?
"Mr. Shen."

Shen Wenxu was secretly wondering whether Huo Yuchen knew that Shen Baisu was a cultivator when he suddenly heard Huo Yuchen calling him. Shen Wenxu came back to his senses and looked up at Huo Yuchen.

"Ok?"

Huo Yuchen: "Have you thought it through? I think President Shen won't refuse, right?"

"I know Shen Baisu is in the capital today. If possible, I hope she can go there for treatment today."

Shen Wenxu: ?

Did you agree? Just as you wish.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Huo, I can't make decisions for Su Su. Don't you know Su Su? Why don't you just talk to her directly?"

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuchen narrowed his eyes and stared intently at Shen Wenxu. "Are you going to refuse?"

Shen Wenxu: "Mr. Huo's interpretation is acceptable."

"My elders are still waiting for me, so I'll go ahead now."

After saying that, without waiting for Huo Yuchen to speak, Shen Wenxu walked away and headed towards Ms. Qi and the others.

Upon seeing this, Huo Yuchen quickly caught up with Shen Wenxu, calling out, "Shen Wenxu!"

After catching up with Shen Wenxu, Huo Yuchen blocked Shen Wenxu's path. "All it takes is for Shen Baisu to make Huo's Group withdraw. This is an extremely worthwhile deal. Are you just going to refuse?"

"You and Shen Baisu aren't biological siblings, so you're not that close, are you?"

"Besides, it's just asking her to save someone, it won't cost her anything. On the contrary, if she wants money, I can give it to her; if she wants fame, I can find a way to give it to her. It's something that benefits her in every way, so why did you just refuse?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Wenxu gave a forced smile and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you've already spoken to her personally, but she rejected you, right?"

"Since she has already refused, she doesn't need any benefits from you."

"I won't use my sister's work to gain benefits. As for the money and fame you mentioned, our Shen family has plenty, so we won't trouble you, Mr. Huo."

"Goodbye."

After saying that, Shen Wenxu took a step to the side, bypassing Huo Yuchen, and quickly walked towards the main table.

Huo Yuchen wanted to continue chasing after him, but he saw that Shen Wenxu had already walked to a crowded place. Moreover, at this moment, there were quite a few people staring at him. Huo Yuchen did not want to be surrounded by people because he was asking for a favor.

So, after standing still for a few seconds, he gritted his teeth and turned to leave.

"What did he want to see you about?"

After Shen Wenxu returned to his seat, Ms. Qi immediately came over to ask him questions, and everyone else pricked up their ears to listen.

Shen Wenxu shook his head. "It's nothing, just business."

Ms. Qi was somewhat skeptical upon hearing this, "Really? You two don't look alike."

Shen Wenxu just smiled and didn't say anything. Then, he took out his phone and sent two messages to Shen Baisu.

**
[Big Brother: Huo Yuchen asked me to save someone, but I refused.]

[Brother: He said he could give you money and fame. If you're interested, it's still not too late to agree.]

When Shen Wenxu sent out the message, Shen Baisu and the others were still on their way back to the blacksmith shop.

After quickly glancing at the message, Shen Baisu replied directly with "No."

Just after replying to the message, a call notification popped up at the top of Shen Baisu's phone screen.

It was an unfamiliar number, a number from the capital city. Instinctively, Shen Baisu felt it was a call from Huo Yuchen.

Despite having this suspicion, Shen Baisu couldn't rule out the possibility that it was someone else's call, so she answered the call anyway.

"Shen Baisu, what do you want? Just..."

As soon as the call connected, a familiar voice came through the receiver.

After confirming it was Huo Yuchen, Shen Baisu hung up the phone and blocked him again.

After that, Shen Baisu received several more calls, all from unknown numbers. Without even answering, Shen Baisu assumed they were from Huo Yuchen.

Shen Baisu hung up on them one by one, and then blocked them all.

After the phone finally went silent, Shen Baisu became increasingly frustrated and called Xiao Qingfang directly.

Xiao Qingfang answered quickly, "Teacher Su?"

Shen Baisu: "It's me."

Xiao Qingfang: "Is there something you need? Or should we check on the patient's condition? The patient has woken up, and now..."

Shen Baisu: "I don't want to ask about the patient's condition, but I want you to ask me something."

Shen Baisu was not worried about the patient's condition at all. With Su Qing's help, the patient would definitely recover. Not only would the patient recover, but the patient's health would be even better than before.

Therefore, she did not care about the patient's condition.

"Ah! What is it? Tell me!" Upon hearing that Shen Baisu needed her help, Xiao Qingfang's tone became serious.

Shen Baisu: "I want to know how Huo Yuchen found out about my treatment of Mr. Tao."

“He keeps harassing me with different phone numbers, which is very bothering me.”

As soon as Shen Baisu said this, Xiao Qingfang understood immediately.

"I understand, Ms. Su. Don't worry, I will handle this matter. I promise that Huo Yuchen will never bother you again from now on."

After listening, Shen Baisu nodded, "Okay, thank you for your help."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Qingfang was immediately flattered and said, "No trouble at all! I'm more than happy to be able to help Teacher Su."

Without saying goodbye to Xiao Qingfang, Shen Baisu hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Baisu noticed several pairs of eyes staring at her.

Shen Baisu: "What are you looking at?"

Feng Yin: "Is Huo Yuchen bothering you again?"

Shen Baisu nodded.

Seeing this, Feng Yin stroked her chin and said, "Do you want me to help you get rid of him?"

Shen Baisu: "...No need."

"Madam, please always remember that you have entered a society governed by the rule of law, and that you are now the director of the Special Affairs Bureau, a public official, and cannot kill people at the drop of a hat."

Feng Yin listened and said nonchalantly, "I'll be careful, no one will know."

Shen Baisu: "No, no need."

"I appreciate your kindness, but you don't need to worry about his affairs."

Feng Yin pursed her lips and continued, "Don't disbelieve me. I know this world inside and out. As long as I'm careful, no one will know."

“…Um, let’s talk about Second Senior Brother.” Seeing that Feng Yin was still persistent, Shen Baisu chose to change the subject. She looked directly at Yu Suhuai and asked, “Second Senior Brother, how long have you been here?”
