Chapter 195:
After leaving the internet cafe, he took out his phone, intending to make a call to check on Cui Xiao's situation. However, he found that his phone was dead.
Looking around, he spotted a place on the street offering shared charging devices. He checked the QR code and grabbed a shared charger to charge his phone.
Before long, his phone turned on. There were several missed calls on his phone, with Cui Xiao's being the most numerous. Wang Haoran immediately returned Cui Xiao's call.
"Are you okay? Where are you now?" Qiu Qianwei's voice sounded nervous yet relieved over the phone.
Hearing her tone, Wang Haoran knew Cui Xiao had clarified the situation.
"I'm fine, just wandering around on the street," Wang Haoran replied.
"Don't wander around outside. Find a place to hide quickly," Qiu Qianwei suggested, her mind racing. "How about this, I'll send you an address, go there directly, and I'll come find you."
"No problem."
After ending the call, Qiu Qianwei sent the address. The address showed that it was a villa on a mountaintop.
Then, Wang Haoran called Qin Yunhan, Xu Muyan, and several other female leads who knew he was the Piano God. He informed them that the reward incident had been resolved and he was safe.After doing all this, he wanted to call a taxi on the roadside, intending to go to the place Qiu Qianwei mentioned.
However, it was too late. With the narrow roads and few cars passing by, he waited for a while without seeing any taxis coming.
Wang Haoran checked the map and found that this place was close to the downtown area. So, he decided to cut through the nearby residential alleys to get to the downtown area and catch a taxi there.
The alley was dimly lit, making it difficult to see the road clearly, but fortunately, his enhanced night vision allowed him to see clearly.
Before long, he reached the depths of the alley.
Tap, tap, tap.
Footsteps of three people nearby echoed.

The footsteps were at least two hundred meters away from Wang Haoran.
If it weren't for his greatly enhanced hearing due to his inner Qi, he wouldn't have heard these sounds. From the frequency of these footsteps, he could tell that the three individuals were moving quite fast, far surpassing normal people. Only martial artists possessed such footwork.
Wang Haoran was slightly surprised and suspected that these people were coming for him.
As their footsteps grew closer, it seemed they were heading towards him.
Thinking this, Wang Haoran darted forward and quickly reached the rooftop of a two-story residential building. With his 50 years of inner Qi, scaling walls was a breeze.
Soon, three people appeared in Wang Haoran's line of sight.
Among them, two were in front, and one was behind, indicating a pursuit. Wang Haoran immediately realized that he had misunderstood. These three people were not after him.
The person chasing from behind had a stunning figure and was a woman. The two fleeing ahead were broad-shouldered and obviously men.
However, the woman's footwork was much faster. When she closed the distance, she leapt into the air and landed in front of the two men. In her hand was a short sword gleaming with chilling light.
"How much did you receive? We can offer double, no, five times the amount!"
"Don't say five times, ten times is fine!"
The two men trembled in fear.
"I only charge one yuan to kill a person," the female assassin's voice was icy cold.
"Who... who are you?" Hearing this strange rule, the two men were horrified and couldn't help but ask.
"My code name is 'Lady Justice,' and I've come to take your lives on behalf of the nine souls of girls who chose suicide due to your harassment!" Her voice was chilling, as if from hell itself.
"You're the number one female assassin, Lady Justice!" The two men had clearly heard of this female assassin's reputation, and fear filled their faces even more.
Because Lady Justice was different from ordinary assassins, she targeted only the most wicked, and so far, never failed. The two men knew that over the years, they had done many despicable things, and Lady Justice would not spare them.
The two men completely abandoned their thoughts of begging for mercy and reached for their waists.
However, before their hands could reach halfway, Lady Justice, like a ghost, passed by them. She confidently sheathed her short sword on her back.
In the dim light, two holes appeared in the hearts of the two men.
After sheathing her sword, Lady Justice didn't even look at her targets. She prepared to leave confidently.
However, at this moment, there was a loud "clang" from behind.
Lady Justice turned around in horror, only to see that one of the fallen men was still alive.
A wooden shard knocked him down.
Lady Justice gasped in cold air. Then, like a phantom, she passed by the still-living man again and made a quick slash at his neck.
The man breathed his last, finally dead.
The female assassin examined the man's chest left and right. She finally understood why he was still alive despite the hole in his left heart. It was because this man was different from ordinary people; his heart was located on the right side.
"Who helped me out just now?" The female assassin swept her gaze around and addressed the surrounding area.
Just now, she left herself unprotected. If it weren't for the man being knocked down by the wooden shard, she might have been dead by now.
There was silence all around, with no response.
The female assassin could only give up. However, curious, she bent down to inspect the fallen object. She saw a broken shard deeply embedded in the man's weapon.
Her eyes widened in shock.
This level of skill was impossible without an inner Qi of over 40 years.
"Elder, would you please reveal yourself?" The female assassin's tone was respectful as she spoke to the surroundings.
However, there was still no response from the surroundings.
With a sigh, the female assassin could only give up. After thanking the elder for their assistance once again, she swiftly left the area.
Once the female assassin disappeared, Wang Haoran revealed himself.
From the conversation just now, it was clear that those two men were nothing less than devils in human skin.
Even though Wang Haoran was a villain, villains were still human beings. Humans and devils were naturally opposed to each other. So, he had lent a hand to the female assassin just now.
To avoid trouble, Wang Haoran swiftly left.
...
About half an hour later, he arrived at the place Qiu Qianwei had mentioned.
Outside the villa gate, Qiu Qianwei and Cui Xiao were waiting.
When Qiu Qianwei saw Wang Haoran, she immediately rushed over and tightly embraced him.
After a long time, she finally let go.
The two stood facing each other in silence, but they could both see the burning flames of love in each other's eyes.
Under the moonlight, their heads gradually leaned closer together.
Cui Xiao instinctively covered her eyes for a moment, then drove away without saying a word. She didn't say goodbye because she knew that even if she did, the embracing couple wouldn't have paid her any attention.
The embracing couple entered the villa together, closed the door behind them, and settled on the sofa in the hall.
Qiu Qianwei hadn't returned home for the past few days, and the housekeeper had already returned home.
In the spacious villa, there was no one to disturb them.
