Chapter 152: Senior, You’re Up to No Good~ He was saying this sort of thing again. Last time he had said something similar and set her thinking of Su Qingying, Donghai’s number-one beauty. And now again. Who this time? “Who do you think it might be?” Wu Chen asked once he had finished entering the number, pausing without placing the call. “Younger than me? And prettier than me?” she asked. She did not bother asking about gentler. She had enough self-awareness for…-

Chapter 151: Her? Who? Li Ruobing’s figure was truly... too much. She had the sort of body where everything fell exactly right, every proportion just so. And her skin was exceptional—smooth and lustrous as cream. Lying on her side now in nothing but her underwear, one hand propping up her head, she looked like a work of art, a masterpiece of heaven’s own making. From her expression Wu Chen could all but reconstruct the whole train of her thinking after she came in to change. The dress had…

Chapter 150: Are You an Actress? Wu Chen was teasing. He knew perfectly well she was not acting cute. But the remark gave her an idea. After a beat, Li Ruobing arranged her face into a mixture of displeasure, wounded grievance, and pleading, wriggled in his lap, and begged, “Tell me! Come on, tell me!” She really was going all out. There was no chance she would have done anything of the kind before. Even now, with their relationship settled, she would never have done something so contrary…

Chapter 149: Li Ruobing! Are You Acting Cute with Me? Both siblings froze. Wu Chen and Li Maoren came out one after the other, almost together. It looked as though Li Maoren were personally seeing Wu Chen off, and yet it did not quite feel like that either. They had not stopped at the doorway to exchange a few last words; they had simply walked out together, both of them stepping all the way into the corridor. Nor was it easy to read from their faces what had passed between them. Because both…

Chapter 148: Ding Ruilong Must Die! Li Maoren knew exactly who the man surnamed Qu was. That Wu Chen could name him at all showed he understood the competition among the great families at the highest levels to a remarkable depth. More to the point, Wu Chen claimed to have dirt on him. From the beginning Li Maoren had believed Wu Chen was lying. He had only feared that he might not be. But the more names Wu Chen produced, the more credible his words became. Because the larger a lie grew, and…

Chapter 147: They Can Be Replaced, Can’t They? Li Maoren’s reaction was violent. In truth he still did not believe Wu Chen. Wu Chen had told him a story, and whether the story was true remained to be verified. But with something of this magnitude, for the moment he had no choice but to treat it as though it might be. And Wu Chen had made his intention perfectly plain. He said He Shiqin was a witness. He said she hated Ding Ruilong. He said he had contacted her. Obviously, he was going after…

Chapter 146: I’ve Already Contacted He Shiqin Li Maoren’s expression tightened. Ding Ruilong had killed Dong Yuantao? He went back through his memory. It had happened more than a decade ago, and the death had been ruled an accident; word had spread, but no scandal had come of it, so there was little for him to recall. He had not known much about it even then. All he could bring back now was that Dong Yuantao had attended Nanguang No. 1 High School. So had Ding Ruilong. That was more…

Chapter 145: Reason May Not Matter, but Interests Always Do! With Li Maoren’s gun suddenly leveled at him, Wu Chen’s expression did not change. If anything, he was quietly pleased. This was precisely where he had wanted things to go—or rather, where he had steered them. There was a reason the pistol had ended up in the middle of the coffee table instead of on the side nearer to him. Wu Chen had put it there himself. Had the gun been on his side, Li Maoren could not have snatched it up in one…

Chapter 144: Who Are You? Why Are You Around My Daughter? Li Ruobing shot to her feet. “Alone? What is there to say behind my back?” Her reaction was violent because she was frightened. Once again she had no idea what Wu Chen was planning. And she knew perfectly well that if she were not in the room, her father would never speak to him with this much restraint. And now Wu Chen was the one asking for it? “Bingbing.” Li Maoren looked up at his daughter with a frown. “Take your brother…

Chapter 143: Blow His Cover! Then Do It Again! There Had to Be Something Seriously Wrong! Wu Chen was blowing his own cover deliberately. First he said he knew guns, and supplied an “airtight” reason for it. Whether the reason was believed did not matter in the slightest. What mattered was that a reason existed. That was enough. It was a species of sophistry: belief or doubt was beside the point; what counted was that an explanation was on the table. Wu Chen had never intended Li Maoren to…
