I Received Messages From Future Self!-Chapter 207 - 207 The Helan Family of Beijing

Chapter 207: Chapter 207 The Helan Family of Beijing Chapter 207 -207 The Helan Family of Beijing Wan Xiaozhou leaned against the door, gasping for breath, inhaling the fresh air; she truly thought she was about to die just moments ago.

That suffocating feeling, even though several minutes had passed, still lingered in her throat, leaving her heart palpitating with residual fear.

Even now, she felt as if a pair of hands were tightly squeezing her neck, preventing her from catching her breath.

If Fang Xiaocao were here, seeing Wan Xiaozhou’s current state, she would definitely be able to tell that Wan Xiaozhou was experiencing a psychological shadow.

Footsteps echoed in the hallway.

Updat𝓮d fr𝙤m ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com.

And the sounds of intense fighting!

Listening to the noises, Wan Xiaozhou knew it was Taotie fighting against Helan Xiaoyue and her pursuers.

Hearing Taotie’s roars, Wan Xiaozhou shivered unconsciously, instinctively hugging herself.

Taotie, this savage, humanoid killer, had left a profound psychological shadow on her; for a short time, she would probably turn pale at the mere mention of Taotie.

If she were an ordinary person, to move on from this kind of psychological shadow might require seeking help from a psychologist, for mental level psychological intervention.

But Wan Xiaozhou, after all, was no ordinary person.

She had, after all, undergone special training.

Given some time, she could recover on her own.

Wan Xiaozhou stood up, tremblingly groped in the dark, walked over to the bed, and sat down on the soft, large bed.

She needed to make good use of the time to rest.

Although she had booked all the rooms on this floor, delaying the time it took for others to find her, it wasn’t absolutely safe.

Whether it was Helan Xiaoyue or Capricorn, finding her was only a matter of time.

If either party could take down Taotie and snatch the Painting Scroll with the treasure map from him, her safety would be somewhat assured.

If Helan Xiaoyue and Capricorn couldn’t hold back Taotie, then as the only person who had come into contact with the Painting Scroll and treasure map, she would be in danger.

“You say you didn’t peek, who would believe that?”

“You say you didn’t make a copy, who would believe that?”

Even if they knew for a fact that you didn’t make a copy, they would still capture you out of curiosity, thoroughly interrogate you, hoping for an accidental discovery, wouldn’t they?

So, Wan Xiaozhou knew!

She has to recover her strength before the struggle for the treasure map is settled, muddy the waters, seize the chance to leave the hotel, or even flee Tang City directly.

She certainly didn’t want to be captured and experience the “joy” of severe torture.

After all, she had no masochistic tendencies.

After resting for ten minutes, Wan Xiaozhou finally felt her body get somewhat comfortable.

She knew her strength had returned.

Listening closely to the movements in the hallway, the fight for the treasure map was still ongoing, and it seemed the battle was becoming even fiercer.

The hotel corridor was no longer the site of a three-way battle between Taotie, Helan Xiaoyue, and Yu Tianqi; it had turned into a chaotic melee.

Wan Xiaozhou had no trouble discerning that Capricorn had also arrived on the scene.

And Capricorn was in a frenzy!

Completely disregarding the camaraderie of being on the Blacklist with Taotie, she was actually helping Helan Xiaoyue and Yu Tianqi attack Taotie alone.

Of course…

To Capricorn’s “well-intended” aid, Helan Xiaoyue seemed ungrateful, occasionally dealing a sudden blow to Capricorn instead.

Enraging Capricorn, known as the “crazy old bat,” who cursed loudly and without regard for her image.

And the curses were extremely offensive!

Listening made Wan Xiaozhou grimace!

She thought to herself, “The only one who dares to curse Helan Xiaoyue, the young mistress of the Helan family, and directly insult her parents, must be Capricorn.”

“This Miss Capricorn is truly fearless. Who dares to curse someone from the Helan family?”

“The last person who insulted the Helan family like that was turned into a human pig and is said to still be soaking in the cesspool of a pig farm rented by the Helan family.”

Just thinking about that human pig’s ordeal sent shivers down Wan Xiaozhou’s spine.

Do you think this is the full extent of the Helan family’s revenge?

The Helan family’s vengeance is even more ruthless!

The Helan family is a deeply rooted, prestigious clan.

They are extremely wealthy.

They even provided a 24-hour standby medical care team for this human pig brother, as well as renting the best ICU ward in a Beijing hospital. Whenever he is about to collapse, the Helan family would rescue him from the cesspool and take him for treatment.

They spend a large amount of money and use the best medicine to revive him.

After recuperating and regaining his health, they put him back into that cesspool again.

And fearing that the human pig brother couldn’t endure, the Helan family also injected him with fat emulsions 24 hours a day, non-stop, lest he give up the fight.

They truly succeeded in making him experience what it’s like to neither live nor die.

With such terrifying methods like the Helan family’s, not to mention personally experiencing them, just thinking about it made Wan Xiaozhou feel bone-chilling fear.

“I wonder if this Miss Capricorn really has the strength to be fearless, or if she’s just naïve about the Helan family’s means.”

Wan Xiaozhou muttered to herself and started preparing to flee.

In her view, Taotie was indeed powerful, but Capricorn and Helan Xiaoyue were not weak either.

All three were of the same caliber!

Moreover, there was Yu Tianqi, only slightly less powerful, ready to assist from the side.

Even if Taotie was stronger, he couldn’t beat the combined attack of three people, could he?

So Wan Xiaozhou felt that this battle for the treasure map was nearing its end.

If she didn’t escape now, it would be too late.

Wan Xiaozhou quietly opened the door and peeked down the corridor, relieved to see that Taotie and the others were fighting at the other end. “It’s a good thing I chose the room at the end of the hallway, otherwise it would have been awkward to run into those monsters as soon as I left,”

Wan Xiaozhou, certain no one had noticed her, darted out of the room and even closed the door gently behind her.

Glancing once more at the battlefield in the corridor, Wan Xiaozhou quietly entered the stairwell and ran down the stairs.

If not now, then when?

Wan Xiaozhou cautiously made her way down three floors before daring to take the elevator to the hotel lobby and leave the hotel.

“Phew…”

“I’ve finally escaped…”

“These people are too dangerous. I can’t stay in Tang City any longer.”

Wan Xiaozhou patted her frightened little heart, still feeling the aftershocks.

“Hey, beautiful!”

“Do you have a lighter?”

Just then, a woman’s awkward voice came from behind Wan Xiaozhou.

Wan Xiaozhou was taken aback, wondering if she had encountered something unclean.

She had just looked back to make sure no one was behind her, so how did someone suddenly appear?

Wan Xiaozhou stiffly turned her neck to look behind her, and what met her eyes was a foreign beauty who bore a striking resemblance to the Black Widow.
