Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Jiang Guangcheng was stunned.
What did he say?
Father is dead?
His eyes widened and his body trembled. How could this be possible!
Wasn’t father fine a few days ago?
Bang!
The door closed with a loud noise.
This voice also awakened Jiang Guangcheng from his daze.
His body trembled violently and he strode towards the iron gate.
"Xiao Chen, what did you just say? My father is dead? No, this is impossible, how could my father die!"
Jiang Guangcheng clenched his fists and pounded the iron door hard, like a madman.
"Impossible, he was fine a few days ago, how could he die...Xiao Chen, you lied to me, didn't you! Tell me, what happened to my father!"
Bang bang bang!
The iron door made a loud noise, and Jiang Guangcheng's voice became hoarse.
Outside the door, Xiao Chen lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled a smoke ring.
"What's going on?"
Lin Nan and Long Zhan heard the noise and walked over.
"I told him about Jiang Tiansheng's situation."
Xiao Chen said while smoking a cigarette.
"You told him?"
Lin Nan was stunned.
"Well, there's no way to hide this anyway."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Brother Lin, aren't you going to let him out and take charge of the situation?"
"Well, he's the best candidate."
Lin Nan nodded.
“If we let other people go, we can’t be the masters of the Jiang family.”
"Well, let's go."
Xiao Chen nodded. He didn't care who the Jiang family let out.
The Chiang family is finished; this is inevitable.
Even when Jiang Tiansheng was alive, he couldn't turn the tide at the Five-Year Conference, let alone the fact that the matter had already been decided!
What is this called?
This is called the situation is stronger than people, and people have no control over it!
"Okay, let him calm down, and I'll let him out! He can't do it in his current state."
Lin Nan looked at the iron gate, then turned and walked out.
"Long Zhan, keep a close eye on him and don't let anything happen to him."
"Don't worry."
Long Zhan nodded.
Afterwards, Xiao Chen and Lin Nan left the security area and headed for the resort.
"You...didn't gain anything?"
On the way, Lin Nan saw Xiao Chen frowning and asked.
"Yes, I know his bank card password. Do you need it?"
Xiao Chen turned his head.
“…”
Lin Nan pulled the corner of his mouth and shook his head.
“There is nothing else.”
Xiao Chen lit a cigarette and took a deep breath.
"This matter is more complicated than I thought, but... this is a bit interesting, hehe."
"What?"
Lin Nan was stunned.
"What's interesting."
"It's interesting to have an enemy who is a worthy opponent."
Xiao Chen looked at Lin Nan and said with a smile.
"Enemy? Who?"
The more Lin Nan listened, the more confused he became.
"Jiang Yu."
Xiao Chen slowly exhaled a smoke ring, and a hint of fighting spirit flashed in his eyes.
"I hope...he won't let me down!"
"Jiang Yu? The kid from the Jiang family? Didn't he go abroad?"
Lin Nan was stunned.
"You mean, he'll come back?"
"Haha, I don't know. I only know that if he dares to come back this time, I will feed him to the fish!"
Xiao Chen smiled and said.
“…”
Lin Nan glanced at Xiao Chen and didn't ask any more questions.
There are some things that are no longer suitable for him to say given his status.
About half an hour later, the two returned to the city and came to a resort.
"Is this resort also one of your bases?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"That's about it. Just take a good rest here."
Lin Nan smiled and arranged the best place for Xiao Chen, a villa with a swimming pool.
"Brother Xiao, do I need to arrange two more girls for you?"
"Are there twins?"
Xiao Chen also laughed.
"Your request is too high. No, no."
Lin Nan shook his head.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and tell me your requirements. What are you not allowing me to do?"
Xiao Chen sat on the leather sofa and lit a cigarette.
"Just one request, don't go out for a stroll these two days."
As Lin Nan spoke, he took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet next to him, opened it, and poured it into the decanter.
"Just this one? You don't restrict me from contacting the outside world?"
Xiao Chen looked at Lin Nan.
"Of course not. I'm not really restricting your freedom. I'm just doing it for them to see."
Lin Nan shook his head.
"You can do whatever you want here. If you need anything, just tell the resort manager and he will do it."
"OK."
Xiao Chen nodded, thinking of something, and asked deliberately.
"By the way, I don't have to pay for living here, right?"
“…”
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Lin Nan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Brother Xiao, you are the head of the Xiao family after all. Once the Xiao family gets back on track, you will have tens of billions of assets in no time!"
"Really? Then I'm really looking forward to it... If you don't have tens of billions of assets, I'll ask you for it."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Okay...haha, come, have a drink."
Lin Nan also smiled, poured the red wine in the decanter into two high-heeled glasses, and handed one to Xiao Chen.
"Why, is this a celebration of my loss of freedom?"
Xiao Chen took it and asked.
"Of course not, it's to celebrate your...day off!"
Lin Nan said with a smile.
"Haha, then you have to drink this glass of wine."
Xiao Chen laughed and clinked glasses with Lin Nan.
After finishing the drink, Lin Nan left.
Since something like this happened to the Jiang family, he had to keep an eye on it.
Especially now that the Jiang family has no one in charge, he has to do a lot of work.
After Lin Nan left, Xiao Chen sat on the sofa, quietly calming himself down for a while.
However, this silence did not last long as it was interrupted by the ringing of a bell.
"Hello, Su Qing."
Xiao Chen took a look and saw that it was Su Qing calling.
"Fortunately, your call was able to get through. I just got the news about the Jiang family."
Su Qing's voice came from the receiver.
"Hehe, don't worry, I'm fine."
Xiao Chen smiled. Although Su Qing's voice was as calm as possible, he could still hear the worry in it.
"Well, I'm glad you're okay. Where are you?"
Su Qing asked.
"I'm at the resort. My freedom has been restricted for the past two days, so I can't go home... But, I can't be restricted from contacting the outside world. If there's anything, you can call me anytime."
Xiao Chen lit a cigarette.
"Resort?"
Su Qing on the other side was stunned for a moment, a little surprised.
"Yeah, it can be considered as giving myself a break."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"I didn't kill Jiang Tiansheng, and the court knows that, so it's just a formality."
"That's good."
Su Qing felt relieved.
"You haven't had a good rest since you came to Longhai. It would be a good idea to give yourself a vacation during these two days."
"Yeah, that's what I thought."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Spend a couple of days relaxing and not thinking about anything, and let the outside world be as chaotic as it can be."
"Haha, you make me a little envious."
Su Qing smiled.
"Envious? No need to be envious, you can come too... Lin Nan arranged a big villa for me. I just saw it and the bed is very big! If you come, we can relax together..."
Xiao Chen smiled wickedly. For some reason, he liked teasing Su Qing more and more.
“…”
There was no movement from Su Qing. She was a little uncomfortable with Xiao Chen's recent tendency to flirt with her whenever they had a disagreement.
"Su Qing, you can actually put down your work and give yourself a vacation... The earth will continue to rotate regardless of who is around."
Xiao Chen was smoking a cigarette.
"How about coming?"
“No!”
Su Qing refused.
"Why?"
Xiao Chen was puzzled.
"I'm afraid I'll disturb your vacation, so I won't join in the fun. Just relax there by yourself."
Su Qing finished speaking and hung up the phone.
"Don't bother... Hello? Hello? Shit, hang up on me!"
Xiao Chen muttered and threw his phone aside.
"Alas, such a nice villa, if Su Qing could come and find an opportunity to practice dual cultivation together, it would be so wonderful!"
Then he shook his head, stood up, and walked around the villa again.
By the way, check if there are any cameras, eavesdropping devices or the like.
It’s not that he doesn’t trust Lin Nan, but it’s just a habit of his.
After he finished the transfer, his cell phone rang again.
"Hey, Xiaobai."
The call was from Bai Ye.
"Brother Chen, what are you doing? Has this matter with Old Man Jiang caused you any trouble?"
Bai Ye asked.
"It's a little troublesome, but not too much."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Why, you just found out?"
"Yeah, I just came out of a female celebrity's house... I turned off my phone before."
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless. This guy... was really enviable!
"Brother Chen, do you think it was Duanmu Ci's grandson who did this?"
Bai Ye asked.
"I don't know. Whoever I love has nothing to do with me... I'm on vacation, planning to have a good rest for a few days. What's going on outside has nothing to do with me."
Xiao Chen said as he came to the swimming pool in the yard.
"Vacation? What do you mean?"
Bai Ye was stunned.
"Haha, my freedom has been restricted. Lin Nan arranged a resort for me to stay in for two days... Okay, you don't have to worry about my affairs. I'm going to go swimming. I haven't swam for a long time."
“…”
Bai Ye was speechless. His freedom was restricted, yet he was still so leisurely?
Afterwards, Xiao Chen hung up the phone, went back to the villa, found his swimming trunks and goggles, changed into them, and jumped into the swimming pool.
After swimming for several rounds, Xiao Chen finally stopped. The evil fire in his heart was temporarily suppressed.
He came out of the swimming pool, lay down on a chair, lit a cigarette, and started thinking.
Even though he said he didn't care about what was happening outside, he couldn't just let it go when he was framed!
At least he had to find out the murderer.
Xiao Chen closed his eyes and began to recall the trip to the Jiang family, from beginning to end, thinking carefully and not missing any details.
"Has the murderer been following me? But I don't feel that he would follow me... Then how did he appear? Has he been at Jiang's house all this time?"
Time passed minute by minute, and soon it was evening.
Xiao Chen still couldn't find any clues, but he felt that something was wrong.
But I can't tell what's wrong exactly.
"I'm hungry, let's eat first."
Xiao Chen stood up and planned to go to the restaurant to eat.
He had just changed his clothes when the phone on the table rang.
He took it and looked at it, then slapped his forehead, wondering how could he have forgotten about this.
