Chapter 236: Walking into a Trap

After Zhao Zhen finished his harsh words, he threw down the cigarette butt in his hand and turned away.

The two caregivers who had been standing in the distance immediately followed.

Zhao Chenru glanced at Zhao Zhen's back and said to the two nurses, "Call Zhao Hai over."

After saying this, he turned his gaze back to the lake not far away.

The Zhao family was now temporarily under the management of Zhao Zhen's father, Zhao Yueze. As for the true heir, Zhao Qisheng had been hesitant, so the younger generation of the Zhao family were somewhat worried, and some of the promising ones had already become active.

Under such circumstances, Zhao Chenru became the target of public criticism.

In fact, Zhao Zhen had been planning on him for a month. He was taking a different approach, hoping to gain his support before negotiating with the rest of the Zhao family.

This plan was quite good, but Zhao Chenru was not at all confident in Zhao Zhen. Zhao Zhen might be considered a man of some intelligence and cunning among the Zhao family, but if he were to be released and compared to people like Huangfu Yuanzhou and Song Wenchang, he would be far inferior.

Moreover, the other party was very polite to him at first, but after being rejected several times in a row, he became a little impatient. Unexpectedly, this guy took advantage of his father's current management of the Zhao family and began to threaten him without hesitation.

Zhao Zhen's broad-mindedness made Zhao Chenru more confident. Thinking back to his cousins, Zhao Hai, who had been low-key before, suddenly made him feel bright.

Zhao Hai was the son of another of his uncles. Previously, he had only known how to indulge in pleasure and debauchery, and even after he was injured, he had come here a few times.

Although Zhao Chenru was very clear about the other party's purpose, he never expressed his opinion. Zhao Hai was also very wise not to mention this matter. If Zhao Hai could agree to be a puppet, then Zhao Chenru would not mind giving him some advice to help him take the position.

As for Zhao Zhen, Zhao Chenru had no intention of arguing with him at all.

But this can also be attributed to Tang Shuo's credit. He might have been angry about these things before, but now Zhao Chenru no longer cares about them.

A man in black suddenly walked over from the front yard and whispered to Zhao Chenru, "Young Master, there are three people outside who want to see you."

"Who is it?" Zhao Chenru asked.

"One of them said his last name was Tang," the man in black replied. "The others didn't say anything."

Zhao Chenru's expression changed. After frowning and thinking for a moment, he asked, "Where is the person?"

"Just outside the door."

"Bring them in and let Ah Fu come over." Zhao Chenru said immediately.

Tang Shuo looked at the environment of the Zhao family's living room with great interest. Wu Lingyun and a man who was tied up and wearing a hood were standing beside him.

Two days had passed since the news of him releasing the mad dog, and the Yanjing police had already begun a large-scale thorough investigation.

However, Mad Dog was not forced out, and the police only arrested some other criminals. However, Tang Shuo's arrangements were not without results. According to reliable intelligence, Mad Dog has now been forced to leave Yanjing.

And Tang Shuo is now about to start his next plan.

Not long after, Zhao Chenru was pushed out from the inner room by a tall man beside him, and there were several men in black clothes beside him.

After hearing the news, Zhao Chenru sent people to surround the living room in three layers. Although he knew that Tang Shuo must have some support to dare to come here, how could he have any scruples now?

When enemies meet, they become jealous of each other!

The first time Zhao Chenru saw Tang Shuo, his hands couldn't help but tremble slightly. Of course, this was also because his lower body had been amputated, otherwise his whole body would have been shaking.

Tang Shuo smacked his lips awkwardly. Seeing Zhao Chenru in the wheelchair, he felt a bit guilty. No matter what the hidden truth was, he was largely responsible for the other person's current situation.

Pushed to the center of the living room by the man in black, Zhao Chenru was the first to speak: "Are you from the Trap?"

Tang Shuo smiled and shook his head, then said, "You should know I'm not that kind of person. I came here to tell you something."

Zhao Chenru narrowed his eyes, sneered twice and said, "I don't care about what you said. Since you are here today, don't even think about leaving."

As soon as he finished speaking, several men in black around him pulled out their pistols and aimed at Tang Shuo.

However, Wu Lingyun, standing behind Tang Shuo, was clearly faster. After the black-clad man made his move, he reached into his waist and, before anyone else, drew his gun and aimed at Zhao Chenru.

"It's not a good habit to make rash judgments." Tang Shuo said with a smile, "I haven't even told you what it is. How can you be sure you're not interested in it?"

Before, Zhao Chenru wanted to eat Tang Shuo’s flesh and blood raw, but now he is not so anxious anymore.

Moreover, he did have some interest in what Tang Shuo said.

Why on earth did this guy dare to come to the Zhao family? Is he really not afraid of death?

Tang Shuo turned around and pointed at the tied-up man standing next to Wu Lingyun and said, "You should know this man."

Zhao Chenru glanced at the other person and asked with some confusion: "What is this?"

"I almost forgot." Tang Shuo smiled and said to Wu Lingyun, "Take off the hood."

Wu Lingyun took off the hood from the man's head as he was told. When his face was revealed, Zhao Chenru opened his mouth in surprise and asked, "What does this mean?"

The man next to Wu Lingyun was Huangfu Zhengqi, who had been controlled by Tang Shuo before.

But the other person now looks really miserable. His originally handsome face is now swollen like a pig's head.

Huangfu Zhengqi used to work alongside Huangfu Yuanzhou, and Zhao Chenru had met him a few times, so he had some impression of him.

But why did Tang Shuo tie Huangfu Zhengqi to his home? Chi Jieji died.

Huangfu Zhengqi looked around and waited until Wu Lingyun took the rag out of Tang Shuo's mouth. Then, with tears in his eyes, he said to Tang Shuo, "You said you would let me go once I told you."

"Of course my words count. If you just repeat what happened, I'll let you go." Tang Shuo nodded and said, "Just tell me everything you know now."

Huangfu Zhengqi looked at Zhao Chenru cautiously and hesitated for a moment.

But soon, the hesitant expression on Huangfu Zhengqi's face changed, and he immediately said to Zhao Chenru: "Your fall off the cliff was not caused by Tang Shuo, but by Huangfu Yuanzhou's manipulation."

The reason he mentioned this matter to Tang Shuo before was because he was forced to do so by the situation at the time and he wanted to save his life.

Although he was dissatisfied with Huangfu Yuanzhou, he didn't dare to directly resist Huangfu Yuanzhou, at least not yet. He remembered all the tricks Huangfu Yuanzhou had used in the past few years, and no one knew Huangfu Yuanzhou's ruthlessness better than him.

But now, facing Zhao Chenru and Tang Shuo, Huangfu Zhengqi suddenly thought that perhaps he could use these two people to eliminate Huangfu Yuanzhou, and then he could reap the benefits.

If something unexpected happened to Huangfu Yuanzhou, he would be the biggest beneficiary. So he no longer hesitated and told the whole story.

After Huangfu Zhengqi finished speaking, Zhao Chenru, who was sitting in a wheelchair, didn't know what he was thinking about, and the expression on his face changed.

When Huangfu Zhengqi just opened his mouth, his first reaction was that Huangfu Zhengqi was lying.

But after carefully considering Huangfu Zhengqi's words, he felt that there was still some credibility in them. And based on his understanding of Huangfu Zhengqi, he knew that the other party would definitely do such a thing.

But why did he try to sow discord between himself and Tang Shuo?

"Do you understand now?" Tang Shuo said seriously, "Although I did fire my gun before, I shot at the rear tire of your car. I was just trying to force you to stop."

After Tang Shuo finished speaking, the living room fell silent, and you could hear a pin drop.

After a long while, Zhao Chenru slowly said, "Even if this is true, do you think I will let you go today?"
