Chapter 118 Being a madman is his true nature
Zhou Ran quickly found Xia Chenggan in the study.
Just ask for help directly.
Tell Xia Chengan to find someone to deal with Peng Qiu in prison.
After all, it's normal for one or two people to die in prison.
What do you mean?
Xia Chenggan raised an eyebrow and looked at Zhou Ran.
It was rare to see Zhou Ran come to him for help.
Zhou Ran spoke with a smile.
"Don't they say money makes the world go round? Use your power, don't be so stingy!"
Xia Chenggan leaned closer, his handsome face suddenly close, almost touching his own.
Zhou Ran remained motionless.
"So calm? As if I'm the one asking for help, not you? If you're asking for help, you should have the right attitude."
Zhou Ran laughed.
"Weren't you just waiting for me to beg you?"
Zhou Ran continued, "You weren't ruthless enough. You should have let that old lady off even more."
Xia Chenggan waved his hand with a bored expression.
"That's not fun."
Zhou Ran rolled her eyes.
"Is this what you call 'liking'? Aren't you afraid that woman might actually kill me?"
Xia Chenggan is a psychopath, psychologically.
Since the incident involving the Xia family, Xia Chenggan has been protecting his home as if it were an iron fortress.
Bodyguards are everywhere, both overt and covert, even after such a major incident as yesterday's murder.
I don't believe this could have happened without Xia Chenggan's indulgence.
Most of those who were hiding in the homes of their friends in the community were taken away and locked up by Xia Chenggan's men.
The woman's mental and physical condition was clearly not right.
And Xia Chenggan, the CEO, is such a busy man, how could he possibly happen to be here at that exact moment?
Where do so many perfectly timed occurrences come from?
It was just a long-planned scheme.
This person seems to be having some kind of trouble again, and is making a fuss about it.
Meeting that indifferent face, Xia Chenggan couldn't help but laugh.
"I knew I couldn't hide it from you. You should have noticed it a long time ago. Why did you only step into the trap now?"
Xia Chenggan extended his finger, silencing Zhou Ran before she could speak.
"Shh, let me guess, it's me who touched your vital point, and let me guess again, which clue I found made you so nervous."
Xia Chenggan reached out and held Zhou Ran tightly in his arms, preventing him from escaping.
"Shaoyang? That's unlikely. You're just using him to force Shao Ying into a corner and make a move earlier than planned."
Is it Qiao Han? That's unlikely. Qiao Han is just a pawn you chose, a minor celebrity in the entertainment industry. She's not worth all this trouble.
Is it about Li Quan and Fu Xuan cooperating with you?
That's certainly possible; I did suspect the origins of the people you had back then.
I've had my suspicions for a long time, but I overlooked the two of them. I never expected them to cooperate with you.
"
Looking into Zhou Ran's calm and unwavering gaze, Xia Chenggan felt that, coupled with his harmless appearance, he was so cute that he wanted to take a bite.
"But that's probably not it. It's just children's petty squabbles. Li Quan's cooperation with you is probably to break away from his family."
Fu Xuan is probably cooperating with you for someone he has been longing for but cannot have.
Their secret isn't really a secret, yet it's not so big of a deal that you have to come here and show weakness.
The situation at Li Quan's home was not as peaceful as it appeared on the surface.
Although the Li family appears to be a scholarly family, Li Quan's father was not a docile person.
He had many mistresses and illegitimate children outside the marriage, and was indifferent to his wife whom he had married into the family through marriage.
The saying "all that glitters is on the outside, but rotten inside" perfectly describes the Li family.
It looks glamorous on the outside, but it's rotten inside.
Li Quan was bound by rules from a young age and had to be a good boy.
But they forgot that a free-spirited, untamed gene can never raise a truly well-behaved child.
He's just a madman disguised as a well-behaved child.
His resistance persisted, and Zhou Ran was able to persuade him without much effort.
Xia Chenggan didn't suspect anything at first because he was careless and firmly believed that Li Quan and the other man hated Zhou Ran.
It now appears that Zhou Ran's first collaborator was Li Quan and his group.
He couldn't even find out when they conspired together.
As for that kid Fu Xuan, everyone knows that he has a white moonlight (a love that is unrequited) he loves but cannot have.
However, no one knew who it was.
Xia Chenggan looked at him with admiration and stroked his cheek.
His tone was ambiguous yet cheerful.
"Meeting you is truly a blessing I've accumulated over three lifetimes."
"Stop using that sickly, manipulative look on your face, it's disgusting."
Zhou Ran retorted with disdain, and Xia Chenggan obediently put away his expression.
He was still the same upright and honest young master.
Xia Chenggan continued speaking.
"Let's get back to the main topic. Let me guess again, is it that close friend you've been scheming against? Qiu Dun?"
Is that the name? You've been scheming against him since the first time you met him, haven't you?
"That kid's really stupid. He knew you were plotting against him, but he still came. Looks like he really can't let you go."
A fleeting murderous intent flashed in Xia Chenggan's eyes, which Zhou Ran instantly caught.
"Heh, are you jealous?"
"Yeah! I'm jealous, jealous that you're good to him. What am I going to do? If I kill him, will you hate me?"
"meeting."
Zhou Ran gave a firm answer.
Xia Chenggan laughed, "Alright, then spare his life."
He took out his phone and sent a message.
The hospital's bodyguards received the message and went to the doctor to relay the order.
The doctor breathed a sigh of relief; he had never killed anyone before, so he no longer had to worry about it.
He quickly tore up the written prescription and threw it into the trash can.
After sending the message, Xia Chenggan waved his phone at Zhou Ran.
"You see, I haven't been very good to you, oh, I forgot."
You don't care about this friend; after all, you've won them over and they absolutely believe you.
Xia Chenggan put down his phone and continued speaking.
"Is this what you really care about?"
Xia Chenggan found a photo on his phone.
Above is a man, a familiar man, Guo Xiang, who is Gu Xiang in this world.
In the photo, he is wearing a black hat, a black mask, and sunglasses.
He turned his head to look around, his expression appearing very wary.
Xia Chenggan stared at Zhou Ran's reaction and saw that he had an expression that said, "I knew it."
She smiled gently.
"I was just saying, the woman you met when you went out to exercise that day looked really strange."
You could smell the blood from afar; I never expected to find so much by following her trail.
"You deliberately let Gu Xiang escape, were you planning to use a long-term strategy to catch a bigger fish?"
Zhou Ran looked helpless; he knew it was that day when he slipped up.
His strength was still too weak; he had already let her escape immediately, but Xia Chenggan still managed to catch her.
Xia Chenggan reached out and pinched his chin, making him look at his face.
"Don't get distracted, don't you want to know how I found them?"
"Oh, I'd like to hear more about it."
"I don't want to talk about it anymore."
Zhou Ran rolled her eyes. What a jerk! He's such a jerk.
"You should see a psychiatrist and get your mental illness treated."
Xia Chenggan shook his head. "No need. They won't find anything wrong with me. I'm a normal person."
“Look at what you’re doing. It doesn’t resemble what a normal person would do, even if you look normal on the surface.”
He's more like a crazy villain than a supervillain.
“You don’t mind seeing me like this, I know you don’t mind.”
Xia Chenggan's hand slid down, and he tried to grab Zhou Ran's neck.
Zhou Ran showed no mercy, grabbed an ashtray from the side, and smashed it over Xia Chenggan's head.
Xia Chenggan was forced to let go, so he grabbed Xia's wrist to prevent the ashtray from hitting his head.
"Okay, okay, stop fooling around, I was wrong!"
Xia Chenggan coaxed him gently, as if he were the victim, not the perpetrator who wanted to attack.
I will forgive all of Zhou Ran's willfulness and unreasonable behavior.
Zhou Ran released the ashtray from her hand, and Xia Chenggan hurriedly caught it and carefully placed it back on the table in its previous position.
This will make it convenient for Zhou Ran to take it next time.
His eyes were full of excitement, as if he was looking forward to seeing what kind of bottom line Zhou Ran would cross before hitting him again.
"How do you plan to withdraw your people? You've alerted the enemy."
"Oh, so you're begging me?"
Xia Chenggan stared into Zhou Ran's eyes.
Zhou Ran felt a tightness in his chest, but he comforted himself, telling himself not to stoop to the level of a lunatic.
He had seen plenty of people who seemed normal on the surface but were actually crazy, so he didn't care about Xia Chenggan.
He said that someone who eventually turns into the world's biggest villain can't be normal, and it's fortunate that he was mentally prepared.
"I'm begging you, bring them back right now. If you cause any problems, I'll rip your brains out."
Xia Chenggan's eyes were full of excitement, as if he felt that this was the right way to threaten someone.
He nodded obediently.
"good."
Xia Chenggan sent another message, then showed it to Zhou Ran so that he could see that he had finished.
"Satisfied?"
Zhou Ran's phone rang at the same time, and she saw Xiaoxin on the other end.
Zhou Ran breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, she stopped it in time.
He nodded. "I'm satisfied. I'm leaving."
"What a jerk! He uses me and then throws me away. Why don't he spend some time with me instead!"
Xia Chenggan pulled Zhou Ran back from leaving, hugged her, and buried her head in his shoulder.
The way it rubs against people makes it look like a big dog.
Zhou Ran was speechless.
Are you childish?
"For kids, this is childish, but for adults it's just right. Do you want to be a jerk?"
Zhou Ran turned his gaze to the ashtray, clenched his fist, and held back.
"You want an ashtray too, to be a real scumbag?"
Xia Chenggan's low laughter drifted over as he pulled Zhou Ran into his arms, preventing him from moving.
Zhou Ran had no choice but to let him hold her, otherwise he would definitely cause trouble again.
"Brother! Brother! I heard..."
The commotion reached them before they even arrived, and then the impetuous Xia Chengping rushed in.
Upon hearing the sound, Xia Chenggan immediately composed himself, turned his face away, and buried his face completely in Zhou Ran's shoulder.
To avoid being discovered by the visitors.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, please continue!"
Upon seeing this scene, Xia Chengping quickly covered his face, peeking out his eyes through his fingers.
He curiously observed the two people inside the room.
"go out!"
"close the door!"
"Okay, I'll go out right away!"
Xia Chengping sensed something was wrong with his brother's tone and assumed he was angry, so he hurriedly went out and closed the door.
Then he pressed his ear against the door and eavesdropped.
After seeing that the person had left, Zhou Ran looked at Xia Chenggan.
