Chapter 1063: Do I Look Like a Fool to You?
by xennovel“Where are you from? Who’s your boss? What’s your purpose?”
Xu Shaochen asked, looking at the two.
“This…”
The two exchanged glances, looking troubled.
Xu Shaochen’s face darkened. “What? It seems you both have a death wish?”
“No, no, no! We’re from an organization called Tianqing. Our purpose is to track the three ladies and report their movements.”
Xu Shaochen pondered. “And what else?”
“We really don’t know anything else! We’re just peripheral members doing odd jobs. Please, let us go.”
“So, you really don’t know anything else?”
Danger emanated from Xu Shaochen.
What these two said was as good as not saying anything.
“No, no, don’t! Don’t kill us! Please!”
The two were terrified, one suddenly remembered something in panic. “I remember! Our people attacked an island you purchased overseas.”
As this was spoken,
Xu Shaochen, Jenny, and Tang Silin, who knew about the island’s situation, all looked shocked.
“What else do you know?”
Xu Shaochen stared intently at the person who spoke.
He didn’t expect this group was the same as the ones who attacked Paradise Island.
“Nothing else! I overheard the boss on the phone. Please, let me go, I can be your informant.”
Being stared at by Xu Shaochen, the person was almost scared to death.
“Where is your boss? How can I contact him?”
Xu Shaochen asked again.
“It’s useless. Someone escaped and reported back. By now, they’ve moved.”
The other person, who had been silent, thought it was an opportunity to shine and eagerly spoke ahead of his partner.
His partner cursed him internally, thinking now they really lost any chance of being used.
He quickly tried to remedy it. “We have a way to contact him internally.”
Xu Shaochen chuckled. “Do I look like a fool to you?”
He waved his hand. “Take them out and deal with them.”
He didn’t believe these two could be his informants.
Tianqing was able to attack Paradise Island, showing its powerful influence. Such an organization has a tightly-knit structure.
If released, these two peripheral members would likely be executed by Tianqing as traitors immediately.
Xu Shaochen wouldn’t waste time on them.
Long San and Long Si dragged them out again.
“No, no! Bastard! You don’t keep your word!”
“Don’t kill us! Please, don’t!”
The two’s cries and curses grew distant and finally disappeared.
“Not keeping his word?”
Xu Shaochen sneered. They dared to target my woman, why would I keep any word with them? He sorted out a thought.
The only thing on Paradise Island that could tempt a powerful entity like Tianqing was the Genetic Serum.
(Explanation: Why did Xu Shaochen assume Tianqing was powerful upon first hearing of them? Because it takes strength to mount an armed attack on Paradise Island.) So, let’s deduce from here.
Tianqing somehow learned about the Genetic Serum lab and production line on Paradise Island and planned a surprise attack.
But unexpectedly, the attack failed, and they couldn’t take Paradise Island.
After the first failed strike, Paradise Island was on alert and reinforced, so Tianqing did not try a second attack and waste resources.
Instead, they tried a different approach: using Liu Ruxue, Liu Ruxu, and Lin Wanxue as bargaining chips to threaten Xu Shaochen.
Why these three? Because they are pregnant, making them more valuable as leverage to force Xu Shaochen’s hand.
Indeed, Xu Shaochen couldn’t possibly not care about his women, especially those carrying his children.
“Interesting. Let’s play then. I’ll see if you can snatch from a tiger’s mouth. If not, beware of feeding yourself to the tiger!”
Xu Shaochen muttered to himself, eyes full of killing intent.
“What…what’s going on here?”
“Yeah, why does Jenny and the others know while we’re clueless?”
A group of women chatted worriedly.
“You explain to them.”
Xu Shaochen said to Jenny.
Jenny explained everything that had happened.
After listening, the women looked astounded.
They hadn’t expected the Genetic Serum, which caused such a stir, was Xu Shaochen’s doing.
“I originally planned to wait for the second generation of the Genetic Serum before giving it to you. But now, for safety’s sake, all of you except Ruxue, Ruxu, and Wanxue, should get injected.”
Xu Shaochen said, not wanting Lin Wanxue and the others to inject because they were pregnant and he feared it might affect fetal development.
“Also, to be safe, those working should stop and work from home. Students, stop attending classes. Otherwise, I can’t feel assured.”
Tianqing was Xu Shaochen’s biggest threat so far.
With the rear vulnerable, how could Xu Shaochen face Tianqing’s persistent pressure?
What exactly is Tianqing?
Xu Shaochen never heard of it before, but now, its first move etched it deeply in his memory.
The women understood Xu Shaochen was concerned for their safety and cooperated fully.
“Alright, it’s late. Everyone should rest early. They’re just a bunch of cowardly clowns. I can crush them with one finger.”
Xu Shaochen lightened the mood seeing the women’s spirits were low.
“Ding, ding, ding…”
As he finished speaking, his phone rang again.
It was a call from Huo Xiao.
Xu Shaochen thought she might scold him and felt guilty. After all, leaving a girl alone in a hotel wasn’t good.
“Hey Xiaoxiao.”
Xu Shaochen answered the call.
“Little Dad, are you done? Come quickly, I’m washed and waiting in bed.”
Xu Shaochen: “???”
In the hotel, Huo Xiao’s face was red, biting her lip, clutching the bedsheet.
Huo Xiao, you’ve really lowered yourself.
It hasn’t been long, and you’ve already forgotten the vow you just made.
Indeed, no one can escape the famous ‘true fragrance law’ proposed by the great philosopher Wang.
