Chapter 745: Full of Secrets

“Do you think her words are trustworthy?”

After leaving the room Xu Shaochen asked Long Er.

Long Er had been listening to his entire conversation with Tang Silin.

Though Xu Shaochen had enjoyed the view Long Er wasn’t so lucky.

After hesitating for a moment Long Er said: “It should be credible. After all she even mentioned that Meilan has no background.”

“You really believed that nonsense?” Xu Shaochen wore an expression of disbelief.

Long Er was stunned: “But… it doesn’t sound fake.”

“Hehe if Meilan truly had no backing forget about private forces do you think law enforcement are all blind? It would have been shut down long ago.”

Xu Shaochen sneered. He had never believed a word Tang Silin said.

If as Tang Silin claimed Meilan had no background and it was all just people scaring themselves.

But what about law enforcement? Were they all blind?

In his view the only truth Tang Silin spoke was probably that she had a grudge against Xiao Huang.

“Then… then Boss why did you say you believed her? Doesn’t that mean you agreed to cooperate with her?”

Long Er felt women were terrifying lying through their teeth. If he married such a wife in the future it would be unbearable.

Xu Shaochen coldly laughed: “I was planning to deal with the Xiao Family anyway. So what’s wrong with adding her to the mix?”

“Moreover I want to know what she’s really up to.”

Women are extreme creatures. Once they want revenge they’ll stop at nothing even if it means mutual destruction.

If Tang Silin truly wanted revenge on Xiao Huang she wouldn’t care about the Xiao Family behind him.

Xiao Huang frequently visits Meilan. If Tang Silin wanted to kill him wouldn’t it be a simple matter?

But Tang Silin didn’t. She was afraid afraid of the Xiao Family behind Xiao Huang.

So her goal wasn’t as simple as killing Xiao Huang.

Looking at Xu Shaochen’s cold expression Long Er now felt men were equally terrifying.

Damn it was tough being an honest person like him.

Women couldn’t be trusted men were more terrifying. He might as well stay single for life and practice his hand skills.

Suddenly he remembered something: “Oh right Boss what did that woman show you when she asked me to turn around?”

Xu Shaochen looked at him with a sympathetic

gaze: “What do you think?”

“She said it would increase trust between you two. She must have shown you some secret of hers.” Long Er pondered for a moment before saying.

Xu Shaochen nodded: “Very smart you guessed it. She’s full of secrets big and white ones.”

As they left Meilan clubhouse Chen Ju Zhao Lin and Liang Huan outside quickly stubbed out their cigarettes and hurried over.

“Young Master Xu how was it? Who’s the boss of Meilan?”

All three looked at Xu Shaochen curiously. It wasn’t that they were gossipy but many rich young people in Jingcheng were very interested in this.

“A very beautiful woman.” Xu Shaochen said.

“Young Master Xu if you don’t want to tell us that’s fine but why use such words to fool us?”

“Exactly how could Meilan clubhouse’s boss possibly be a woman?”

“If it’s really a woman I’ll livestream eating shit.”

The three didn’t believe Xu Shaochen’s words at all. Meilan clubhouse’s style just didn’t seem like something a woman could manage.

Xu Shaochen was speechless. These days telling the truth made people disbelieve and want to livestream eating and drinking scams.

“You two head back first. I have something to discuss with Chen Ju.”

Xu Shaochen said to Zhao Li and Liang Huan.

Zhao Li and Liang Huan exchanged glances: “Alright we’ll go first then.”

The two could guess that Xu Shaochen must want to discuss something with Chen Ju that they shouldn’t know about.

“Young Master Xu what do you want to talk about?” Chen Ju asked.

Xu Shaochen patted his shoulder: “Get in the Car first. Take me back to the hotel. I’ll tell you on the way.”

Moments later several Cars drove towards the hotel.

“Do you know Tang Silin?”

In the back seat Xu Shaochen looked at Chen Ju and asked.

“Tang Silin? That name sounds familiar.” Chen Ju frowned trying hard to recall. After a moment his eyes lit up: “I remember now. The Tang Family was a small clan in Jingcheng that disappeared several years ago.”

“There are too many small clans like that in Jingcheng. Even if they perish it’s not a big deal. The reason I remember the Tang Family is because Xiao Huang was the one who destroyed them back then.”

After finishing he seemed to suddenly realize something and looked at Xu Shaochen in disbelief: “Young Master Xu you just said Meilan clubhouse’s behind-the-scenes boss is a woman. It couldn’t be Tang Silin could it?”

“Mm tell me about Xiao Huang and the Tang Family.” Xu Shaochen nodded.

“Hiss~ It really is her.” Chen Ju drew in a sharp breath then began to talk about the grudge between Xiao Huang and the Tang Family.

“It seems Xiao Huang had his eye on the Tang Family’s eldest daughter Tang Silin back then and wanted to marry her. Logically the Tang Family should have been happy to be noticed by a young master from a big family like the Xiao Family.”

“But unexpectedly Tang Silin opposed it and the entire Tang Family disagreed. This angered Xiao Huang. In a fit of rage Xiao Huang erased the Tang Family from Jingcheng overnight.”

“It was also because of this incident that Xiao Huang’s reputation for arrogance reached its peak. After all it was the first time in many years that such a thing had happened in Jingcheng.”

“Destroying an entire clan just because of a rejected marriage proposal was simply insane and extremely arrogant. Xiao Huang was labeled as Jingcheng’s biggest bully and his reputation in Jingcheng was completely ruined.”

At this point Chen Ju sighed: “I never expected Meilan clubhouse’s boss to be Tang Silin. She approached you because she wants revenge on Xiao Huang right?”

“Mm you said Xiao Huang often goes to Meilan. Tang Silin has plenty of opportunities so why hasn’t she killed Xiao Huang? Is she afraid of death?” Xu Shaochen nodded his eyes flickering with an indecipherable look.

Chen Ju was stunned: “That’s right. Tang Silin’s refusal to marry back then shows her unyielding nature. Such a person wouldn’t fear death. So why hasn’t she killed Xiao Huang at Meilan for revenge?”

Xu Shaochen didn’t speak further but in his heart he had his own guesses and thoughts.

Perhaps Xiao Huang wasn’t as arrogant as others thought. What people saw was only what he wanted them to see.

In everyone’s eyes he was a ruthless and arrogant bully so it was reasonable for him to do shocking things.

Just like when he destroyed the Tang Family in anger. What an insane act that was.

But because of his reputation for being arrogant and despicable others in Jingcheng didn’t find it strange when he did such things.

If someone else had done this it would have caused an uproar.

And Tang Silin wasn’t simply seeking revenge. She must have some plan involving Xiao Huang.

Since ancient times human thoughts have been the hardest to guess.
