Chapter 297 Chu Xueyi's Suspicion
Chu Xueyi remained calm and looked at Xu Sichen as if he was looking at a child in a bad mood.
"Si Chen, I know you must still be resentful of the Chu family for abandoning you. If you have any grievances or requests, you can tell us and we can discuss it."
"But regarding your relationship with Ling Feng, I still hope you will consider it carefully. After all, things are very different now. The relationship between our two families doesn't just represent us personally; it also concerns the survival of our two bases."
Xu Sichen suppressed his smile and said sarcastically, "Uncle Chu, what you're saying is that if I don't agree to marry into your Chu family, then the Morning Light Base might not be able to survive, right?"
Chu Xueyi didn't confirm nor deny it. Instead, he suddenly leaned over with a smile and whispered, "Si Chen, you took out all the supplies from the Morning Light Base, right?"
Xu Sichen raised his eyebrows slightly but said nothing.
Chu Xueyi continued in a low voice, "An Ran once said that a month before the apocalypse, you suddenly sold the shares your mother left you and received a large sum of cash from your father. But I accidentally discovered that you spent almost all the money in your account in less than a month. Si Chen, I'm curious where you spent all the money."
As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on Xu Sichen's face, as if he wanted to see her panic. Unexpectedly, Xu Sichen's composure far exceeded his expectations, and she still looked calm.
There was now a hint of interest in her eyes, which had always been playful, as if she was expecting him to continue.
Chu Xueyi was a little disappointed, and for a moment he doubted whether his guess was correct.
In fact, this guess suddenly came to his mind when he saw Xu Anran's strange behavior.
But once that idea came up, combined with what they had found out about Xu Sichen's abnormal behavior some time ago, everything seemed to make sense.
Quickly buying shares for cash resulted in a large amount of capital outflow.
Renovation of housing.
Everything indicates that Xu Sichen seemed to have foreseen the coming of this disaster a month before the end of the world.
This was the result of internal discussions among their top management.
But they have always been confused. Even if Xu Sichen predicted the end of the world in advance and purchased a large amount of supplies, where could these supplies be hidden?
After all, in the early days of the apocalypse, it was not uncommon for people to stockpile a large amount of supplies, and their Chu family spent a huge amount of financial resources to make various preparations.
However, after experiencing a series of disasters such as floods, extreme cold, and earthquakes, only one in ten people remained.
The Haicheng base has been able to survive until now, largely relying on the country’s secret storage.
But how can the Morning Light Base, which has no resources, be maintained?
Those abundant resources seem to be inexhaustible.
They thought hard but couldn't figure out the reason.
Now he suddenly realized that Xu Sichen must have some rare treasure that could be used for storage.
Cheng Fang and her daughter also knew about this, so they stole the jade pendant from Xu Sichen.
Presumably, that jade pendant is the medium of the rare treasure.
Xu Anran bit her fingers frantically to make them bleed. Isn’t this the same blood binding as described in those online novels?
As a successful person, Chu Xueyi naturally would not read any online novels. He knew this operation thanks to his friend's granddaughter.
She believed in the existence of the so-called space in the novel, bit her finger, and dripped it on all the jade ornaments in the house. Finally, she fainted due to excessive blood loss.
