Master, Your Wife Has Become a Super Star Through Fortune-Telling

Chapter 292 - 294: Setting Fire

"Besides all this, what else happened?"

Su Nian asked.

Wang Bai thought for a moment before adding, "A few days ago, they really went too far. There’s an old lady who often shops here, just buying some seasonings and things. They actually just snatched her money right from her."

"The old lady was so scared she fell and broke her leg. After that, she never came back to our supermarket. Her children started blaming the supermarket, and they even wanted to come here and demand compensation from us!"

"But we weren’t the ones who did anything wrong! On what grounds? Why should I have to pay? I was so furious I called the police, and I even managed to get one of their little biker gang leaders thrown in jail!"

Speaking of this, Wang Bai looked utterly satisfied.

[You called the cops and only got one of them?]

[Hey, getting one is still pretty good. Let’s hope he gets all of them locked up eventually!]

But after a moment, Wang Bai continued, "It was just for a few days of detention, though. Later, I heard that the biker gang went and started harassing the old lady’s family. They had no choice, so the family had to sign a settlement agreement."

"Sigh! And then they moved out of our neighborhood."

[OMG, people that lawless actually exist.]

[That’s so disgusting!]

[Aww, the owner has it so rough!!]

[That’s nothing. There are a few guys like that in my area, and they’re even worse!]

Su Nian nodded. "Then are you aware that the man is out now, and he holds a grudge against you?"

Hearing Su Nian mention this, Wang Bai sighed. "That’s exactly what I’m worried about. These people are lawless, young, and impulsive. They don’t think about the consequences at all. I’m afraid they’ll do something irreversible. What if they just burn down my supermarket?"

Su Nian didn’t speak, just looked at his face.

Wang Bai’s expression grew darker. The space between his eyebrows was shadowy, and the bloody aura surrounding him grew heavier.

Su Nian nonchalantly tilted her chin up. "They aren’t going to burn down your supermarket. They’re planning to burn down your home."

[Those guys are really that awful! Isn’t that way too arrogant?]

[Whoa, is it getting this intense? All because of two bucks!?]

[This is just completely lawless. Anyway, I’ve already reported it. The police will definitely help.]

"What do you mean?!"

Wang Bai was completely shocked. He cautiously glanced around a few times but only saw the bright lights and his wife busy in the kitchen.

He didn’t quite understand. Su Nian raised an eyebrow and said in a low voice, "Because you called the police, that group holds a grudge and decided to do something big."

"What?! Just because I called the police, they’re going to burn me and my family?! Are they insane?"

Wang Bai was stunned. He’d had a very hard life getting to where he was today.

He had seen his share of the world’s warmth and coldness, but he had never encountered people this psychotic.

But he also had great faith in Su Nian, so he naturally believed her now—that those people were actually coming to burn him to death.

His expression changed instantly. "This is completely lawless! I’m calling the police right now!"

But Su Nian added another reminder, "They’re about to arrive."

[My god, these people really have no morals at all.]

[It’s not like the supermarket owner’s family is the only one living in this building.]

[What if they burn someone else? The blame won’t fall on this uncle, will it?]

[Speaking of which, I think people who run a business should just be more generous. Look, you weren’t, and now all this trouble is happening. What if your neighbors get dragged into it?]

Aside from a few gloating comments, most of the viewers were urging the man to leave.

But Wang Bai’s expression shifted again and again. Finally, he couldn’t help but ask for confirmation one more time, "Master, are you telling the truth? Are they really coming to harm me?!"

Su Nian nodded and said, "Judging by your facial features, these people have been harassing you for more than just a day or two. And their leader is only seventeen or eighteen years old. He’s young, impulsive, and doesn’t consider the consequences of his actions. Didn’t he threaten you last time?"

Wang Bai froze. He instantly recalled that the last time he saw that young man, he had indeed said something about making him pay the price, burning him to death, and making sure his whole family was ’all together’."

He hadn’t taken it seriously at the time, but now that Su Nian had pointed it out, his expression flickered with shock and uncertainty. ’I’ve really met a living master,’ he thought. ’This must be real.’

Su Nian smiled, her expression a mix of nonchalance and contempt as she reminded him, "Those idiots have arrived."

[They’re here, and the Master isn’t telling the uncle to run? Why isn’t he leaving?]

[I’m a little confused by what the streamer is doing.]

[Don’t worry, the streamer definitely has a plan. She’s super smart!]

Su Nian propped her chin on her hand, a captivatingly bright smile slowly spreading across her beautiful face.

"Now, take your phone and go to the stairwell on your second floor. Those guys are right there."

[I think these guys are just completely lawless. So young, but they’ll dare to do anything. What if someone gets killed?]

[I get the feeling they don’t care about human life at all. They’re just too young.]

[Right, right! It feels like even if someone died, it would have nothing to do with them. They just don’t value other people’s lives at all!]

Wang Bai frowned, unable to process what was happening for a moment.

But then he grabbed his phone and, unconsciously treading lightly, went down to the second floor.

The building they lived in was quite large and had two staircases. One of them was very dirty and never cleaned, and it was always cluttered with junk.

The lightbulb had also been broken for a long time, so almost no one ever passed through there.

Recalling Su Nian’s words, he instantly understood and cautiously entered that stairwell.

At the same time, a few figures furtively approached.

"Boss, are you sure about this?"

"I’m sure. Don’t worry, I’ve already prepared. I’ve cased the joint. The families living here are all poor slobs. There are no fire hydrants or security cameras. We have nothing to fear!"

"Exactly! Are you getting scared? We just start a few fires in the chaos. What’s so hard about that!"

"Alright, Boss, we’ll listen to you. I’ve been wanting to get back at these bastards for a long time."

"Yeah! That supermarket owner actually got our boss sent to jail. This is the payback he deserves!"

And Wang Bai arrived just in time. The moment he heard the thugs’ voices, he was in a WeChat group chat, and he plugged in his earphones.

He started a voice call.
