Chapter 339 Accident
Chapter 339 Accident
Xu Youyou not only guessed that it was a mutual compromise, but also felt that the number of people involved was no less than three.
One person holds the jade pendant, one person puts the address, and finally one person holds the key.
She thought about the distance between Hong Kong City and Treasure Island, and had reason to suspect that the fourth person had the password, or even that the four people did not know each other.
If the Li family was forced to make such a division, it seems to make sense.
Xu Youyou tossed and turned in bed until the second half of the night before she fell into a drowsy sleep.
She was worried about the mission and woke up early the next day, but she felt dizzy and looked very bad.
Seeing the boss like this, Xu Fang was extremely anxious: "Boss, why don't you just rest here? I'll go to Wu's house and help you get your things back..."
Xu Youyou felt dizzy in her head, but since her rebirth, she has maintained a good sleep and rest schedule most of the time. Although she suffered from insomnia occasionally, it was not to the point where she could not trade.
"It's okay. Since I have made an appointment with the old man, I naturally can't break it." Xu Youyou said.
After breakfast, she immediately went to the end of the village road.
However, it was already eight o'clock in the morning, but there was no movement in the Wu family's house. No matter how hard they knocked on the door, no one answered.
"Boss, I've asked the villagers. Mr. Wu has a regular schedule. He gets up at six every morning and rarely sleeps in." Xu Fang said from the side.
If she hadn't met the old man last night and confirmed repeatedly what to do today, Xu Youyou would have almost suspected that the Wu family had run away overnight now that they were staying indoors.
Xu Fang knew that Xu Youyou valued Mr. Wu very much, so she said, "Boss, why don't you come back later? Maybe the old man overslept today."
Xu Youyou nodded slightly. She was indeed anxious to get the safe, but she also didn't want to upset the old man by being too impatient.
As the group turned around, Liu Xiangyi suddenly said:
"Could it be that the old man fell at home? Doesn't the news always say that elderly people live alone and no one else knows about accidents."
Xu Youyou's expression changed drastically when she heard this: "Quick! Break down this door and contact the rest of the Wu family!"
Although Xu Youyou and Mr. Wu had only met once, she didn't want to see the ninety-year-old man encounter such an accident. Besides, her mission now depended on the old man.
With so many bodyguards with her, it was not difficult for her to break open a big iron door. After rushing into the house, she immediately found the old man lying in the kitchen.
"Boss, I'll call an ambulance right now!" Xu Fang said.
Xu Youyou was afraid that they wouldn't be able to get an ambulance, so she made a quick decision: "Let's drive them directly to the nearest hospital! We'll meet the ambulance halfway! We need to save time!"
A temporary bodyguard beside her suddenly said, "I know a little about first aid. If you trust me, boss, I can try. I'm just worried that if we can't save the person, the old man's family will get angry with us..."
The old man was barely breathing, so Xu Youyou couldn't care less. She said to the bodyguard, "Try your best to save him! If you can't, I'll be responsible for any compensation his family has to pay! So many people have witnessed this, I won't break my promise!"
After hearing Xu Youyou's words, the bodyguard who was originally hesitant immediately took action.
Xu Youyou felt relieved when she saw his professional movements, but she couldn't help thinking that this was indeed a mission to leave the novice period. Even if she successfully contacted the most important person in the mission, there would still be twists and turns.
At this moment, she kept praying in her heart, hoping that the old man could survive this disaster.
With the bodyguard's temporary rescue, the old man suddenly moved.
"As long as he is conscious, he should still be saved. Boss, let's get him to the car now. Everyone, listen to my instructions on how to transfer the injured. We must not cause any secondary injuries to the injured!" said the temporary bodyguard in charge of first aid.
When Xu Youyou heard this, she couldn't help but look at the bodyguard again. Hearing him calling him "wounded", Xu Youyou couldn't help but suspect that he was a retired medic.
Thanks to the command of this temporary bodyguard, the old man was safely transferred to the car, and the ambulance arrived in time and met Xu Youyou's car halfway.
After the old man was admitted to the hospital and a lot of work went on, his vital signs finally stabilized.
The doctor couldn't help but sigh, "Luckily you guys rescued him in time. The old man was already old. If you had been a few minutes later, I'm afraid he would have died."
Xu Youyou felt cold sweat on her back. If Liu Xiangyi hadn't shown up suddenly, she wouldn't have been forced to break into the house. Fortunately, she had hired enough bodyguards, so even after returning to Shanghai, she didn't let any of the temporary bodyguards leave.
If not for this, I'm afraid the old man would have already explained it today.
Mr. Wu's family arrived very quickly, and the first person Xu Youyou saw was the old man's daughter.
An old lady in her sixties.
Judging from her dress, she looks like an educated lady. Even though she is already retired, she is still energetic, with bright eyes without any cloudiness of old age. She also looks very similar to Mr. Wu.
As soon as Mrs. Wu saw Xu Youyou, tears fell from her eyes. "Miss Xu, I really don't know how to thank you. You saved my father's life. If there is anything you need my help with, please feel free to ask."
During the conversation with the other party, Xu Youyou learned that the old lady was a professor at a key university in the province. Her identity was similar to what she had guessed. She was indeed an intellectual.
"Ms. Wu, you are too polite. The fact that I was able to save the old man's life this time was purely a coincidence. I had already made an appointment with the old man today to retrieve my family's things from him." Xu Youyou said.
Mr. Wu's great-grandson was also waiting nearby. Upon hearing this, the young man's face was filled with confusion. "What did my grandfather keep for your family?"
Xu Youyou said casually: "It's just a few things from the previous generation. I don't know what they are specifically."
A glint of greed flashed in the great-grandson's eyes, and he said, "Words are not enough. You said my great-grandfather kept it, but who knows whether the owner of this thing is my family or yours..."
Before he could finish his words, Old Lady Wu slapped him in the face: "Wu Xiaoguang, how can you talk to your great-grandfather's savior?"
Wu Xiaoguang was obviously very afraid of this young lady and quickly lowered his head: "Miss Xu, I'm sorry, I spoke without restraint."
Xu Youyou waved her hand, not wanting to make a fuss. She turned to look at Old Lady Wu, feeling that she seemed to know something.
As expected, Mrs. Wu said, "Miss Xu, the things that my father keeps can only be handed over by him personally. We, his children, can't find them."
