The next day, in their dorm room, Xu Chen and the others waited for Zhao Weimin to wake up. Soon, Zhao Weimin slowly woke up, rubbed his eyes, looked at the three people in front of him, and asked, "Brother Chen, you guys... weren't we drinking at the bar?" Seeing that he was a little dazed, Xu Chen told him directly what had happened the night before. Luckily it was the weekend, otherwise the whole dorm would have been punished because of what happened last night. After hearing Xu Chen's account, Zhao Weimin fell into thought. Xu Chen sat on the gaming chair under the bed and asked Zhao Weimin, "Brother Wei, why did that girl frame you?" Zhao Weimin shook his head, then, as if he had thought of something, said loudly, "I know! It's definitely that bastard Zhao Shengming!" Xu Chen looked at Zhao Weimin suspiciously, and Zhao Weimin then told Xu Chen and the others about what he had seen at the restaurant that day. Just as the group was about to continue their conversation, they noticed Li Wei standing dejectedly to the side. Wang Aihua patted Li Wei on the shoulder, "Alright, there are plenty of fish in the sea. With Brother Chen here, your happiness will definitely be secured." Xu Chen nodded reflexively. Li Wei waved his hand and said in a low voice, "It seems that studying hard is our destiny." "It's good that you realize that. With your brothers by your side, if you get good grades and skills, why worry about not having girls who like you?" Xu Chen comforted him. Li Wei picked up his schoolbag and said goodbye to the group, "Looks like I need to catch up with you guys quickly. I'm going into seclusion!" Zhao Weimin was about to call Li Wei back when Wang Aihua gave him a look, so he gave up. After Li Wei left, Wang Aihua said seriously, "Wei Zi just suffered a setback. Let him be alone for a while to calm down."
Xu Chen opened his phone, which displayed the information Xiao Bai had found about Su Qingqing and Zhao Shengming. After reading it, Wang Aihua and the others suddenly understood. Zhao Weimin pounded the edge of the bed, then got up, dressed, and said to the two, "The dormitory isn't the place to talk. Let's go to the secret hideout. I'll tell you the whole story." Xu Chen nodded, and the group left the dormitory. The so-called secret hideout was actually the Zhao family's business in Beijing. Every waiter, chef, and even the cleaner there was inextricably linked to the Zhao family. As soon as Wang Aihua heard "secret hideout," she knew what Zhao Weimin was going to talk about. The group went into a private room and ordered a pot of tea. Zhao Weimin had just taken a sip when he said to Xu Chen, "Brother Chen, actually, what I've encountered is basically related to you." Xu Chen seemed thoughtful, quietly waiting for Zhao Weimin to continue. Zhao Weimin then told Xu Chen about his conversation with the old man, discussing the core meeting, Xu Jianguo's promotion, and another... Amidst the discontent, Xu Chen nodded and said with emotion, "I never expected that Brother Wei's family would have such a debt of gratitude to our family." Zhao Weimin looked at Xu Chen with a helpless expression, "Even if my old man didn't say anything, your father's promotion was a foregone conclusion. Don't forget your other identity." Wang Aihua also knew about Xu Chen's identity, so she didn't ask, but said to Zhao Weimin, "Brother Wei, what should we do next? We can't really be on guard against Zhao Shengming's underhanded tricks every day, can we?" Xu Chen put down his teacup and said seriously, "Things have become interesting. Originally, I thought my father's promotion was..." "Of course, I didn't expect there to be this layer of struggle. In my opinion, the key point isn't Zhao Shengming, but the Sun family." Zhao Weimin and Wang Aihua nodded in agreement. Then Wang Aihua said helplessly, "The Sun family's strength isn't much weaker than Brother Wei's family, otherwise Zhao Shengming, this small fry, would have been crushed by us long ago. Brother Chen, you've just said something pointless." Xu Chen said jokingly, "It seems the waters in the capital are much deeper than in Xingcheng. I'll handle things." Zhao Weimin looked at Xu Chen suspiciously, "Brother Chen, are you planning to use force?" Xu Chen said solemnly, "Don't worry, I won't..." "It's force." Wang Aihua pulled Zhao Weimin back, who wanted to ask more questions. After they finished their tea, Xu Chen said goodbye to the two men and got into a taxi. The driver asked, "Where are you going, young man?" Xu Chen replied, "Sunshine International Trade." Looking at the scenery passing by outside the window, Xu Chen picked up his phone and looked through Sun Wei's information, including the photos that Zhao Weimin had sent him. Through Xiaobai, all the information about Sun Wei on the internet was already on Xu Chen's phone. "We've arrived, young man." Xu Chen nodded, paid the fare, and got out of the car. Looking at the building in front of him, he pondered what to do.
At that moment, Sun Wei received a call from Sun Jianhua in her office. "Hello, Dad." Sun Wei grabbed her bag and clothes and walked out of the office. "What? That brat Zhao Weimin saw through me?" Sun Wei was furious. Hearing Sun Jianhua's instructions, she immediately said, "Okay, I'll arrange things properly from now on." After closing the office door, Sun Wei opened the elevator and went down to the parking lot. Soon, the car slowly drove out of the parking lot. Sun Wei stopped on the side of the road, intending to call Zhao Shengming again, when the car door suddenly opened, and a young man got in. Sun Wei was surprised for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Little brother, I'm not free tonight." Sun Wei was a workaholic, spending most of her time going between the company and her villa. In the past, whenever Sun Wei had a need, she would give a hint to her confidant, and as soon as she left the parking lot, she would encounter a gigolo in her car, who would then take her directly to the villa for some lovemaking. Xu Chen smiled, ignoring Sun Wei's words, and then said unhurriedly, "Miss Sun, I am Xu Chen, Xu Jianguo's son." Sun Wei thought for a moment, then a cold glint flashed in her eyes, "So it was you." She started the car, completely ignoring whether Xu Chen got out or not. Xu Chen touched the interior of the luxury car, then smiled and said, "Miss Sun, so you're not planning to let me out?" Sun Wei snorted coldly, "What, you're afraid to follow me? Then why did you get into my car?" Xu Chen shook his head, "To be honest, there's nothing I wouldn't dare to do." Sun Wei glanced at Xu Chen disdainfully, then fell silent. The two remained silent as the tall buildings outside the car window gradually disappeared. Finally, Sun Wei couldn't help but speak first, asking, "May I ask what business Mr. Xu has with me?" Xu Chen rolled down the window, lit a cigarette, and exhaled smoke rings, saying, "I've come to ask you a few questions." "Go ahead and ask," Xu Chen turned to look at Sun Wei's beautiful face and said seriously, "My first question is, do you know me?" Sun Wei racked her brains, realizing she didn't really know much about Xu Chen, and simply shook her head. "The second question, why did you target Zhao Weimin?" Sun Wei pulled the car over to the side of the road, got out, and lit a cigarette. She said earnestly, "It's simple. The Zhao family was the biggest contributor to your father's rise to power in Hunan Province." Xu Chen remained silent, waiting for Sun Wei to continue. Leaning against the hood, Sun Wei continued, "Old Master Tang is a pillar of strength. We can't, and dare not, take any action against the Tang family, but we still have to make our stance clear." Xu Chen felt the gentle breeze and said contentedly, "You're very honest." Sun Wei rolled her eyes. "Being able to find me single-handedly proves you..." "His strength is indeed extraordinary." Xu Chen smiled. "You guessed right." Sun Wei continued, "Old Master Tang has a high reputation. We find it very puzzling that he would ask the Zhao family to step in and protect your father's position. After investigation, we found that your father and Old Master Tang have no connection. So I guess the reason can only be with you." Xu Chen replied, "So, the reason you chose Zhao Weimin instead of me is because you need to investigate me and find out my identity?" Sun Wei nodded and then said, "Get in the car!" Xu Chen obeyed, opened the car door, and got in. The two headed towards the villa area.
