So what if Xiao Chen was outstanding? When others talked about him, they would always disdainfully mention that he was an illegitimate child of the Xiao family.
An Xue revealed a sinister smile on her face. She was filled with pride, and her demeanor was cruel, making her look threatening.
Xiao Chen has dealt with all kinds of people ever since he was a child. He saw right through An Xue’s threats and lies.
Xiao Chen quickly guessed that An Xue was madly in love with Mo Yu and utterly jealous of Fang Liu. He immediately knew about the love triangle between them.
Nonetheless, Xiao Chen pursed his lips and smiled. “Since you are personally asking me for a favor, Miss An, I will do my best.”
‘What? Well, that was easy!’ An Xue was pleasantly surprised.
She initially thought that she would have a hard time persuading Xiao Chen. After all, what she asked of Xiao Chen was fairly straightforward. She was afraid that he would reject her request. She even thought of threatening him if it came down to it.
She planned to threaten him by saying that she would refuse to marry her. She would also tell her father that Xiao Chen had molested her. She knew that Xiao Chen would be finished if she spread such rumors.
However, Xiao Chen had agreed to her request so quickly. ‘Did he agree because he likes me?’
When An Xue thought of this, she could not help but raise her head and look at Xiao Chen. But, Xiao Chen was enigmatic. It was as though An Xue had failed to see the emotions and thoughts hidden behind his bright, sparkling eyes.
The people who were afraid of Xiao Chen worried that they would get on his bad side. Whenever they looked into his eyes, they would immediately think he was angry.
But, An Xue thought that Xiao Chen liked her, and when she looked at him, she felt a warmth in his gaze.
An Xue blushed slightly, but she was also filled with pride. She came from a wealthy family, and she was beautiful. An Xue felt that every man she met would eventually fall in love with her sooner or later. They’ve only met twice, but it would seem that Xiao Chen had already fallen in love with An Xue.
‘That little b*tch must’ve deceived Mo Yu. She even convinced him to fall in love with her instead of me. When Xiao Chen finally manages to chase that b*tch away from Southern City, Mo Yu will finally come to his senses and remember how amazing I am.’
An Xue fantasized about her plans coming to fruition. She raised her head as she smiled widely. She then said to Xiao Chen, “Then I shall trust you to complete your tasks. You should make it quick. I will be waiting to hear of your success.”
An Xue left with a smile once she finished speaking to Xiao Chen.
However, if one were to watch their interactions from the sidelines, one would probably notice that Xiao Chen had not acknowledged An Xue from the start. He did not even glance at An Xue as she left.
Xiao Chen did not expect other women to be as foolish as his birth mother. He thought, ‘These foolish women believe that they can manipulate men and easily take advantage of us. How pathetic.’
The thought of being married to a foolish and arrogant woman like An Xue made Xiao Chen nauseous.
Xiao Chen had grown up around prostitutes and was used to the physical relations between men and women. As a result, he had developed a psychological disgust for such actions. Xiao Chen despised the physical contact between men and women. He would often be reminded of his foolish mother and his miserable childhood when he thought of those things.
Xiao Chen felt that he would never know the true meaning of love. He knew that he would never love another person, and he did not think that anyone would love him in return.
But it didn’t matter to him if he never fell in love. He wanted to have the freedom to do whatever he wanted with his life.
Xiao Chen couldn’t care less about love. He only wanted freedom and control over his own life. So, he planned to destroy the Xiao family from within. But first, he would use the Xiao family to build his reputation, and when he became strong enough, he would finally do as he pleased.
Xiao Chen finished smoking a cigarette and enjoyed the cool breeze for a while. Then he called his secretary and told her to send him the details concerning the Yu-Liu duo.
Xiao Chen’s secretary was highly efficient. When Xiao Chen returned from his morning run the next day, he realized that he had received an email.
He clicked on the e-mail and found that the information regarding Mo Yu was more than thirty pages long. Xiao Chen thought that this man was simply amazing.
‘So, before he took over the Mo family, he had already established countless successful businesses. He had also surpassed his grandparents and parents that came before him, becoming the most outstanding successor to the Mo family.’
However, the document regarding Fang Liu was much more straightforward because there was only one page of details about her. After reading the information on Fang Liu, he saw that she had a poor upbringing in the Fang family home for more than a decade.
Xiao Chen’s eyes widened as a strong sense of familiarity welled up in his heart.. He realized that Fang Liu’s childhood closely resembled his past experiences to an extent.
