"Ahem, you've come for the person who's the talk of the town today, haven't you?" Mr. Ex, in the study, coughed repeatedly, his hand loosely clenched into a fist and pressed against his mouth.
As he coughed, he opened his palm and saw that it was stained with blood.
A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.
"As expected of Mr. Ex, you guessed it right away." Chu Yu, who was outside the door, was still unaware of the situation inside the room and continued to praise Mr. Ex in order to pave the way for the cooperation to come.
"Heh." Mr. Ex just gave a cold laugh in response to Chu Yu's insincere flattery.
Besides Mr. Axe, there were servants and a doctor inside the house.
The servant bowed his head and quickly helped Mr. Ex clean the bloodstains from his hands.
Meanwhile, the doctors were busy preparing medications.
"Sir, if you ask me, you and Lin Yang are a match made in heaven. What is Xu Chengzhi anyway? Does he even deserve to compete with you?" Chu Yu mustered his courage and continued to flatter Mr. Ex.
"And who are you to talk to me about cooperation?" Mr. Ex, tired of these sweet words, replied to Chu Yu with similar words.
He wasn't speaking up for Xu Chengzhi; he was simply annoyed by the sycophantic person outside the door.
How could he not know Chu Yu's background?
This person is no pushover.
They love to sabotage others behind their backs.
"..." Chu Yu stood outside the door, his face grim, but he dared not lash out.
Who is the person in the study?
That's Mr. Axe, the world's richest man, who makes everyone tremble.
"Sir, don't you want Lin Yang back by your side?" Chu Yu composed himself and continued, "I can help you, and get rid of Xu Chengzhi, this thorn in your side."
"Chu Yu, is that your name?" The needle pierced Mr. Ex's hand, but he seemed oblivious to the pain and continued his conversation with Chu Yu in a calm tone, "Ding Zhong just took the blame for you, and you really think that matter is over? Don't think I don't know that you were targeting Lin Yang with this Wen Yuli matter."
"..." Chu Yu remained silent.
"Should I call you stupid, or do you think you're so clever? Do you even know who rescued Lin Yang? You don't actually think it was Xu Chengzhi, do you?" Inside the study, Mr. Ex was mocking Chu Yu repeatedly.
The widely circulated version is that Xu Chengzhi got Lin Yang out of jail.
"You haven't even figured out anything, and you're already talking to me about cooperation? Aren't you just being incredibly arrogant?" The doctor gave Ex another sharp injection into the back of his hand, but he didn't even groan. "Ding Zhong has confessed everything, and I have all the evidence. If I'm ever in a bad mood, I can crush you as easily as crushing an ant."
"I haven't even come looking for you yet, and you've already walked right into my trap? Cough cough." After saying all that, Ex couldn't help but cough again.
"Mr. Ex, is there some misunderstanding between us? What Ding Zhong? I've never even heard of that name before." Chu Yu smiled innocently, calmly feigning innocence.
"Misunderstanding? Do you want to go to the police station for questioning and see if it's a misunderstanding?" Ex narrowed his eyes, threatening Chu Yu outside the door. "If you ever dare to set your sights on Lin Yang again, I guarantee I'll make sure you live in that dark, sunless place forever. Now get out of here!"
Mr. Ex spared his life, but he thought with disdain that Chu Yu was a nobody who couldn't cause any trouble no matter what.
Chu Yu clenched his fists, turned around, and left.
