After going bankrupt, the Xiao family regretted their actions and tearfully begged Xiao Chen, who had become the richest man, to return home.
Xiao Chen's expression was cold: "We'...
"Yes, according to his account, that's right," Xiao Chen said.
"Is this true?" Wu Ming asked thoughtfully.
"It should be like, when a person is about to die, his words also reflect his situation." Xiao Chen said: "Sun Zhende should have anticipated his own ending today."
"From what you said, it's really possible. After escaping the country, Sun Lao Er frantically expanded his territory and swallowed up several forces."
Wu Ming thought for a moment and said, "It's related to drug trafficking, cyber fraud, and even the Holy Tabernacle cruise ship, which involved human organs."
"Back home, the Sun family keeps transferring assets overseas. They want to take over that country one day."
"That's impressive." Xiao Chen gave a thumbs-up. "I'm really curious, how did the Tongsheng Society trick him into believing he was destined to be emperor?"
"The Tongsheng Society excels at deceiving people. Before they were cleared out, they were often active in Southeast Asia, and many wealthy people were their members."
Wu Ming said, "What they promise to the wealthy is nothing more than power and eternal life."
"Many wealthy people who have more money than they can spend in several lifetimes are too spiritually empty, so they highly value these things."
"It's all because of money." Xiao Chen stroked his head. People really shouldn't be too idle. If they are too idle, more troubles will easily arise.
"Regarding the Sun Group, a conclusion will be reached in the next few days." Wu Ming's face darkened as he glanced at Xiao Chen, his tone still somewhat resentful.
"Xiao Chen, you really pulled off a great trick this time. Haha, you even took me into account. You're really something."
"Uncle Wu, you are so righteous. You risked your life to join the conspiracy." Xiao Chen said with a chuckle, "Won't this wipe out this criminal gang in one fell swoop?"
"Just shut up." Wu Ming was really angry. What made him angry was not that Xiao Chen tricked him into joining the game.
But this kid actually used Wen Wan to fish, and his black carp took the bait without hesitation?
"Ahem, okay, this time I owe Uncle Wu, I will definitely repay this favor." Xiao Chen said with an awkward cough.
"Wasn't Wen Yi temporarily blind before? How is she now?" Wu Ming asked with a sigh.
"I've recovered. What happened?" Xiao Chen asked curiously.
"It's okay, but there are some things you just need to know. Don't tell Wen Wan." Wu Ming thought for a moment and said, "Her husband, Xiao Gucheng, is on an infiltrated overseas mission."
Xiao Chen's heart tightened, and he subconsciously felt that something was going to happen.
"Because he stole some intelligence from the Holy Tabernacle, he is now being hunted by forces throughout the Jinsanpo region."
"Two of his seven comrades have already died for their country. They are currently engaged in a protracted battle with the enemy near the rainforest area of Bonong. The last news they received was a week ago."
"How is he? Can't we send people from the country to support him?" Xiao Chen asked anxiously.
For some reason, his heart was lifted when he heard the news that Xiao Gucheng was in danger.
"Do you know where the Bonong Rainforest is?" Wu Ming's tone darkened. "It's known as the Little Amazon."
"It's very dangerous in there. A tiny mosquito could kill you."
"If Xiao Gucheng hadn't been desperate, there's no way he would have entered the rainforest. Sending our people there would only result in more casualties."
"What should we do? Are we just going to watch them get into danger?" Xiao Chen was anxious.
"We didn't say we'd ignore it. Some of the hidden personnel in the Jinsanpo area have already gone to investigate and provide support, regardless of the risk of being exposed."
"As soon as there is any news, it will be transmitted back to the country immediately. The border defense forces are on standby at all times. As long as it is within our territory, any rescue signal will be rushed to the rescue immediately."
Wu Ming's expression was serious: "Xiao Chen, Xiao Gucheng's affairs are no longer just his own. The regime in Jin Sanpo has been unstable recently and has been at war."
"If we intervene militarily on a large scale, there will be international disputes, so for now we can only endure and wait for news."
Xiao Chen took a deep breath and nodded slightly.
At this point, this is the only way, but the worry in his heart seems to be even greater.
"But you don't have to worry about anything happening to him, because he is Xiao Gucheng." Wu Ming emphasized the three words "Xiao Gucheng".
Xiao Chen looked at Wu Ming thoughtfully. He felt that Wu Ming seemed to be hinting at something.
But after Wu Ming said this, he left, leaving Xiao Chen with only a suspense.
In the next few days, Yanjing experienced a major change.
All the leaders of the Sun Group were arrested, and they were arrested first and then tried.
Various crimes were uncovered and eventually classified as terrorism-related.
All those involved in the Sun family case were arrested and sentenced. The chairman of the Sun Group was shot dead on the spot for resisting during the arrest.
Of course, these things are internal information of some departments.
All the news outside was suppressed, and even if there was news, it was just a few words.
This time, Mr. Song came to Yanjing in person to meet Xiao Chen.
After dinner, Old Song said with a smile, "Zi Yan, go buy some local snacks for grandpa. I didn't eat enough just now."
"Grandpa, is your appetite so good now?" Song Ziyan looked at Old Song in some confusion.
How could she not know that the old man was trying to get her away?
But she refused to accept it. What was there that she couldn't accept? Did she need to be sent away?
"Haha, yes, I've had a big appetite lately." Old Song laughed and said, "Go quickly, I want to chat with Xiao Chen."
Song Ziyan glanced at Xiao Chen before walking out.
"Xiao Chen, let's go." Old Song was in a very good mood. He picked up a glass of white wine.
"Mr. Song." Xiao Chen quickly picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Mr. Song.
The two drank it all in one gulp and put down their glasses. Boss Song exclaimed, "It's so refreshing, so refreshing."
"Mr. Song, when you say "delightful", do you mean the wine is good, or something else?" Xiao Chen asked with a smile.
"Wine is good, and it also solves a big worry in my heart, and I feel very happy inside." Old Song laughed.
"Xiao Chen, you don't know, the Sun family's affairs are a source of worry for me."
"We knew their family was doing something bad, but we couldn't expose it openly. The few dangers Ziyan encountered were all caused by the Sun family."
"Now it's all good. The Sun family's influence in the country has completely collapsed. Hahahaha."
"Grandpa, this is what I should do, but right now there's still the trouble with Sun Lao Er." Xiao Chen put down his wine glass: "I still feel unsatisfied if I don't solve this problem."
"Sun Lao Er knows his own limitations. He is managing his power abroad and has no time to avenge the Sun family. Besides, his relationship with Sun Zhende is not that deep." Old Song looked at Xiao Chen with admiration.
