Chapter 130 I Don't Believe Him



A voice came from over.

"Mr. Chen, my master invites you."

"Wei Yihong".

At Quan Bo's invitation, Chen Xian visited the Wei family for the second time.

Wei Yihong's mind was filled with complex emotions when he saw Chen Xian approaching.

"Mr. Chen, would you be interested in acquiring Zuixianglou and the Wei residence?"

Chen Xian was slightly taken aback.

Wei Yihong said inexplicably, "I should thank you, Boss Chen. I misunderstood your wife before."

Here, I apologize to Mr. Chen.

Wei Yihong stood up and bowed to Chen Xian.

Chen Xian returned the gift.

"Mr. Chen, are you interested in taking over my family's restaurant?"

Chen Xian responded, "The Chen family does not currently plan to open a restaurant. The Chen family currently has a pig farm and a chicken coop. Expanding too much would be too much for us, as we lack experience and are unable to manage everything."

Wei Yihong nodded.

Chen Xian suddenly remembered the Gu family incident and asked, "Boss Wei, I wonder if you know anything about the Gu family?"

Wei Yihong looked at him and shook his head.

Chen Xian was slightly taken aback and glanced at him for no apparent reason.

An outsider, by chance, sees Li Niang and happens to recall past events. Is it really that much of a coincidence?

Did the Gu family really not play a role in this behind the scenes?

Seeing that Chen Xian remained silent, Wei Yihong continued:

"Gu Junshan's most favored son should be the eldest son, but unfortunately he died in a fall from his horse. The eldest son's family also has a son, the fourth son; on the second son's side, neither the second nor the fourth son is favored, and they both take care of the family business."

Chen Xian nodded, then wanted to ask about the Gu family.

Seeing that Wei Yihong was drinking tea without saying a word, she opened the lid of the porcelain cup.

"Chen takes his leave."

Wei Yihong watched the man leave. Uncle Quan stood beside him and whispered, "Master, it was the Gu family who instigated you back then. Aren't you going to remind them?"

"Gu Junshan used me as a test. I have a knot in my heart, but I don't have many concerns or care, as long as I can achieve my goal."

It doesn't matter.

Life is unpredictable.

Uncle Quan, but Mingchu is dead after all. Is it really possible that he has nothing to do with the Chen family woman?

This will just let the Gu family and him fight like dogs.

"By the way, while the restaurant is doing well right now, go and get some drinks, dishes, and bowls on credit in various towns. Put all the bills on Zuixianglou's tab. We'll pay you all at once in a while."

"this?"

The old man was slightly taken aback.

"yes."

She nodded, her expression slightly stiff, and glanced at the middle-aged man with slightly graying temples.

My mind went blank.

Chen Xian went to the Rainforest Study and handed in his manuscript.

Uncle Fu exclaimed in surprise, "Brother Chen is really quick!"

"I heard the Wei family is planning to leave?"

Chen Xian nodded, "I don't know, Uncle Fu, do you know the Gu family?"

"Hmm? I know a little. The Gu family's cloth business has been operating in town for three generations."

"By Gu Junshan's generation, his family's business had reached an even higher level..."

Chen Xian continued, "I wonder if Gu Junshan is a very traditional person who insists on the system of legitimate heirship?"

"Yes, his youngest son was born to his legal wife and is usually pampered. He is quite young, and has been by his side since he was a teenager."

"It's too early to say that we should insist on him inheriting the family business, but he will definitely put in much more effort than the rest of the Gu family!"

Chen Xian nodded, saying that what Wei Yihong said was almost the same.

"Uncle Fu, I may need to trouble you for a few small favors again."

Uncle Fu smiled calmly, "Brother Chen, you are the top writer in our study. Your business is my business. Speak."

"Moreover, my second young master really admires you. He even went to the countryside just to get closer to you."

Chen Xian: "Back then, wasn't Young Master Wenxuan afraid that Magistrate Su would throw him back to his hometown, so he simply exiled himself?"

Uncle Fu: "..."

Chen Xian whispered to Uncle Fu about how to arrange the Gu family's trivial plans.

Uncle Fu asked curiously, "Wei Yihong is quite lively in town, what are you going to do?"

Chen Xian: "He suppressed the Chen family, so I stepped in and bought his pigs at a low price."

Uncle Fu cupped his hands in greeting: "Awesome."

Chen Xian: "Today he asked me if I wanted to take over the restaurant and the house, but I didn't agree."

Uncle Fu nodded in thought.

"I heard about the restaurant being sold. The price isn't too expensive. Are you planning to take it over, Brother Chen?"

Chen Xian shook his head and said, "The Wei family lost a son, and they can't get over it. But he wouldn't be so determined to fight me to the death."

But do you really believe I have no resentment towards the Chen family?

Due to the limitations of the era, the people here have great faith in supernatural and ghostly matters.

A woman with a strong fate who brings misfortune to her husband—who can say for sure that there's no connection between supernatural and ghostly matters?

"I don't believe him."

"There are very few people in this world who truly wish you well."

Besides, he was a stranger with whom he already had a grudge.

Perhaps, at present, the Chen family is his closest family.

After listening, Uncle Fu re-examined the thirty-five-year-old man. Although the man had an ordinary appearance, he was calm and composed.

His every move exudes a natural resilience and a profound gaze that sees through the world's ways.

Silently, I sighed. He was a businessman who had witnessed much of the evil in human nature.

To some extent, Chen Xian's words, though cold, were the truth.

Chen Xian said calmly, "I am a law-abiding person and do not want to scheme against others. If the Wei family plots against me, I do not mind giving them face."

Uncle Fu's heart skipped a beat.

If others heard this, they would only think that this person was bragging, but the man in front of him, if you mess with him, he will really teach you a lesson.

He was somewhat worried about Ma Jinping's matter, fearing that something unexpected might happen along the way.

The police found out that the person was delivered in the morning, but the body hardened at noon.

In less than a day, I heard that the man was involved in a prison riot and was accidentally punctured in the throat, dying on the spot.

What a surprise! Even a dog wouldn't believe it! Why did the riots break out so suddenly, the moment Ma Jin-ping went in?
