Chapter 272: Because of My Brother Upstairs, Hu Xilin, who knew the house well, went straight for the study and pushed the door open. "Old Lei, you—" He stopped halfway through. Lei Cheng had a guest. Hu Xilin did not know Wu Chen. He had heard the name, but he had never met the man, so of course he did not recognize him. "You've got company." Hu Xilin paused in the doorway and gestured back down the corridor. "How about I go sit downstairs a while?" His manner with Lei Cheng was…-

Chapter 271: The Art of Language Hu Xilin and Qian Ruiling were both second-generation rich kids. More than twenty years earlier— Hu Xilin's father, Hu Daguo, had been a township entrepreneur in Da'an Town, Yulin County, on Donghai's outskirts, with four factories of various sizes to his name. Qian Ruiling's father, Qian Dejun, had been a township entrepreneur in Qingyuan Town, Yulin County, with three factories to his. Each family was worth tens of millions of yuan. Hu Daguo and Qian…

Chapter 270: Neither of Them Is Clean By the timing, Hu Xilin had probably driven straight to Zhizhen Manor the moment he hung up with Lei Cheng. Zhizhen Manor was an established top-tier luxury community. No one who lived there was ordinary, and management was extremely strict. An outside vehicle could not possibly get in unless a resident had notified security beforehand. "I'm out. I'm not home," Lei Cheng said into the phone, glancing at Wu Chen as he spoke. "Don't lie to me, Old Lei." Hu…

Chapter 269: The Video Recorded in Advance "But... Hu Xilin is a stubborn man. He'll be a nuisance about it. He'll insist on meeting me face to face. Both times we spoke I told him to stay out of it, that it had nothing to do with him, but..." Lei Cheng turned it over as he spoke, a look of some difficulty on his face. Hu Xilin was his friend. In truth, Hu Xilin and Lei You were old friends. Before Lei Cheng came to Donghai to run the subsidiary, Hu Xilin and Lei You had already been on very…

Chapter 268: Man, I Fucking Give It Up to You! Lei Cheng did not know whether Wu Chen had hidden Li Ruobing's existence from Zhuang Xiaodie, so he tested the water directly, in the form of a joke. He could tell at once what sort of position Zhuang Xiaodie held at Wu Chen's side. Much the same position Tao Manying held at Lei Cheng's own. A girl still in school, studying acting. There was no question her dream was to become an actress, a star. And Wu Chen was plainly going to make her…

Chapter 267: If Miss Li Finds Out, Won't She Get Jealous? A paved path ran between the lawns straight to the villa's front door. Wu Chen and Zhuang Xiaodie walked along it. They had just reached the foot of the steps and not yet started up when the door opened from inside. The woman who opened it was beautiful, with an exceptional presence—Tao Manying. "That's Tao—" Zhuang Xiaodie almost cried out. It was a perfectly normal reaction to the sight of a huge celebrity, but she got hold…

Chapter 266: Secret Lovers The lounge was dimly lit. Most lounge bars were decorated this way. It was not that they had no windows; even where windows existed, they were sealed off. Partly that blocked the noise of the street. Partly it built a hushed, shadowed atmosphere. Glowing decorations covered the surrounding walls, and the light overall had a warm, dim yellow cast. It was not yet dark outside, but from within the lounge no daylight from the street could be seen. It gave the impression that…

Chapter 265: 4:39:21 P.M. Jiang Chuan knew perfectly well that he might not be able to beat Wu Chen. That photograph Wu Chen had taken in the elevator and sent him had genuinely frightened him. He simply could not believe a human being was capable of such a thing—seven men sent to kill one, and the one had turned on them and wiped out the lot. Later, though, when he spoke with Old Dao by phone, Old Dao had said he nearly managed to injure Li Ruobing. That had made Jiang Chuan "understand" the…

Chapter 264: Give Me the Knife These past few days had been a nightmare for Jiang Chuan. He had been trying to flee. But while retrieving his passport, someone had struck him down from behind. Only after waking did he learn it was Old Dao's men who had taken him. He asked why. No one answered. They blindfolded him, bound him, threw him into a vehicle, jolted him around again and again, moved him through several places, and after two days of it he finally arrived here. From the names on the office…

Chapter 263: Let Me Go! "Testing me?" Wu Chen looked at her. "Yes." Wu Yurong nodded. That was exactly it—testing whether he truly knew everything. Wu Chen smiled. The corner of his mouth curled oddly. Then he reached out, hooked a finger into the neckline of her dress, pulled it open a little, and glanced inside. "White." He smiled and let go. She had asked him to guess. He had simply looked. "I told you to guess... You're awful." She thumped his shoulder lightly, reproach in her…
