Chapter 337 Thief
"Let's forget about this. If people find out that my writing style is the same as yours, there will be all sorts of gossip. Anyway, it's only a few tens of thousands of words, it won't take too long." Chen Wei would never actually write an autobiography just to appease Su Mengdie.

"Oh, I see. Your entertainment industry is really troublesome." Su Mengdie said casually, without intending to force the issue.

She's too busy updating her own work to have time to ghostwrite for Chen Wei.
The banquet ended much faster than expected; it was just a simple meal.

For Jiuliang, covering the cost of this meal was already a significant expense; he didn't have the extra money to take these people to any entertainment venues.

What's more, most people haven't written a single word today. Instead of hurrying back to writing, they want to go to entertainment venues?

"Sigh, in the end I still couldn't get the stamp."

"While you're still thinking about pushing Zhang, he's already planning to get her into bed, and most likely he's succeeded."

Following the man's words, the group looked over and saw Chen Wei and Su Mengdie walking together from behind. "We have to admit we're impressed."

"Aren't you coming back with me?" After getting into the car and making room for him, Su Mengdie realized that Chen Wei had no intention of getting in.

"I suddenly remembered that I left some things at the old villa and I need to go get them. You should go back first, sister," Chen Wei said truthfully.

"Oh," Su Mengdie replied.

After watching the car drive away, Chen Wei immediately hailed a taxi and headed to the old villa.

He didn't lie to Su Mengdie; he had indeed forgotten something there. It was the old computer that Su Yumeng had lent him before, which still contained the novel's backend account password and other information.

To be on the safe side, it's best to delete it as soon as possible. Through today's lesson, Chen Wei clearly understands that he must reduce all factors that could potentially expose him.

Even a close call is unacceptable!
This layer of paper must not be broken.

Chen Wei didn't want to experience Su Mengdie's terrifying gaze a second time.

I got out of the car and walked into the villa area.

"How's it going? Is the dog still behaving?" Chen Wei happened to run into a neighbor who had given him the dog before.

"To be honest, among all the dogs I've ever met, none are more sensible than Xiao Cong. He's practically like half a son to me." The woman was still very grateful to Chen Wei for this.

While dealing with the woman, Chen Wei was also listening attentively to the message the dog was conveying to him.

It's very likely that my own home has been burgled!
And it wasn't just a simple moving company incident. Xiao Cong witnessed someone dressed suspiciously prying open the door lock while she was taking a walk.

That posture, no matter how you look at it, makes him look like a thief.

"Then I won't disturb your walk any longer," Chen Wei said, patting the dog's head, letting go, and standing up.

"Okay, Xiao Cong, let's go." The woman nodded, unaware that anything was amiss.

Were you robbed?
Even if the moving company has already been there once, they only take away things that will be used. As for the things that are not used, they may still be valuable.

"They actually stole from me! These thieves these days have some nerve." Chen Wei decided to go back and check what he had lost before making any further decisions.

There's also a strong possibility that, after knowing the home address, they wanted to sneak in to find some juicy gossip; that can't be ruled out.

We arrived at the villa.

The door lock did show signs of being tampered with, though it was difficult to tell without close inspection.

This shows that he's still an experienced player.

Chen Wei took out his key, opened the door, and went inside.

I didn't hear any strange noises.

However, he found a drop of blood that had not been wiped clean at the door.

Judging from the color of the bloodstains, it hasn't been long.

Was that person injured?

"Was it when you were climbing over the wall that you were cut by shards of glass?" Chen Wei muttered to himself.

Upon entering the house, nothing seemed amiss, and the kitchen showed no signs of use.

Next was the toilet. Chen Wei opened the drain cover and caught a few strands of hair from inside.

If he remembered correctly, no one in his family had such short hair; it was even shorter than medium-short hair.

"They even used the bathroom, so it seems they plan to stay for a long time," Chen Wei muttered, analyzing the situation. Combined with the bloodstains and the act of faking the scene, he could roughly guess the other person's identity.

Light footsteps sounded behind me.

Immediately following was the sound of a blade slicing through the air.

Chen Wei raised his hand and grabbed the other person's wrist.

With a forceful twist, the other person cried out in pain and released their grip.

Chen Wei then reached out and grabbed the knife that had fallen into mid-air.

"Hey, hey, hey, living in someone else's house and then wielding a knife against them, isn't that a bit much?" Chen Wei asked with a sneer.

"Who exactly are you?" Judging from Chen Wei's reaction speed, the short-haired woman could tell at a glance that this guy was no ordinary person.

“Didn’t I already tell you? I’m one of the owners of this house,” Chen Wei replied.

"You're not one of the Black Hands?" the short-haired woman asked repeatedly.

"Black Hand? What is that?" Chen Wei asked seriously.

Upon hearing this, the short-haired woman stopped resisting. "I'm sorry, I'll leave as soon as possible."

Chen Wei simultaneously released his grip on the short-haired woman's hand, extremely curious about her identity. "Who exactly are you?"

"I advise you to keep quiet. Knowing too much won't do you any good." The short-haired woman limped out of the restroom, and a faint hissing sound of her gasping for breath could be heard.

"I suggest you get your injury treated properly. If this continues, your entire leg could very well become infected and become unusable."

"..." The short-haired woman did not answer.

However, before Chen Wei could even move, he heard a loud thud as she fell to the ground.

He picked up the short-haired woman and placed her on the sofa. Her lips were pale, her forehead was covered in cold sweat, and her body was trembling slightly.

It's mostly caused by a leg injury.

Chen Wei carefully unwrapped the gauze and couldn't help but exclaim "Eh!"

This is too disgusting.

Thinking back to the short-haired woman's earlier attack, he couldn't help but admire her patience.

The severity of this wound is such that even an average man might not be able to withstand it.

It would do Chen Wei no good to let someone die here.

Open the super operating table!

After completing the mini-game, the previously severe injuries are healing at a visible speed, and the recovery is as good as new.

Its white, smooth appearance makes it hard to doubt that this is the same leg as the previous one.

After the wound healed, the short-haired woman's expression softened considerably.

A rosy glow gradually returned to her face, and she was no longer as haggard as a flower that could wither at any moment.

Slowly open your eyes.

After seeing Chen Wei's face clearly, the short-haired woman's wary expression lessened considerably.

Feeling something strange in her body, she looked down, her eyes trembling in their sockets. She immediately looked up at Chen Wei and asked, "What did you do to me?"
