Chapter 396: Chapter 393
In the streets of Dongcheng District, the traffic is composed solely of vehicles.
The weekends here are extrely crowded.
Shen Lin had a hard ti finding a parking spot.
Lu Xiao had been waiting for him at the entrance to the courtyard’s alleyway, and only when he saw him did they walk inside.
Shen Lin took out a set of docunts and handed them to him:
“I know you don’t want to get involved, but I think your worries are sowhat unnecessary. I’m well-acquainted with Beijing’s business circles. I have many minor connections that won’t be discovered by others.”
He was speaking the truth; after all, they were brothers, and there was no need to talk about outsiders here.
Lu Xiao didn’t say much either. After taking the docunts and looking through them, he found they contained information about Li Tingze, covering everything from his personal background to the various aspects of his company’s operations.
However, the company’s business activities were mostly legitimate enough to be public.
“I didn’t expect this man to be the hidden mastermind you were looking for, Li Tingze.”
As he spoke, Shen Lin let out a soft chuckle:
“Honestly, he’s quite a formidable character, ruthless and decisive. It’s rumored he made his fortune through his girlfriend. Using the identity of his girlfriend’s fiance, he entered the company, killed his future father-in-law, drove his girlfriend insane, and within just two years, he had devoured a company worth hundreds of millions.
Lately, his thods have been even more ruthless. Last year, when he wanted to grab a piece of land but the bidding rival had an advantage, he simply arranged a car accident. He then smoothly acquired the land. Anyone who becos his opponent is likely to be half-destroyed by him.”
Upon saying this, Shen Lin caught Lu Xiao staring at him, and realizing sothing, he quickly laughed awkwardly and corrected himself:
“Most likely, just most likely, he definitely couldn’t kill you. But if the two of you really clashed, it would be a cataclysmic event.”
Indeed.
Lu Xiao was also not soone to be trifled with, possessing both physical skills and intelligence.
He had graduated from one of the top military universities in the country and could have pursued a career in the civil service, but instead, he chose to join the special forces.
But what he worried about was Lu Xiao’s… those qualities.
He was too upright, responsible, and committed. If these traits were exploited by others, that would be what he didn’t want to see.
However, perhaps he was worrying too much. Once a person’s scales are touched, and their bottom line crossed, sotis they might disregard everything.
At the mont.
Shen Lin was so focused on discussing matters with Lu Xiao that he didn’t realize where he was until they arrived at the courtyard’s entrance, and then he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Putting a hand on the doorfra, his eyes widened as he looked at Lu Xiao and stuttered:
“Wait, wait, what day of the week is it today?”
Students, students should be at school, not at ho, right…
Lu Xiao tucked away the docunts and glanced at him: “It’s the weekend, why?”
At those words, Shen Lin: “…”
He pressed a hand to his forehead and rubbed his brow in silent question: “Is your sister at ho?”
Lu Xiao glanced at a figure walking from the covered walkway to the main hall, and it was Wen Xian.
The Captain’s eyes only held his own wife, and he responded, “I don’t know.”
Shen Lin was hesitating on whether to enter when several figures appeared in the alley.
Lu Xiao’s mother, returning from buying vegetables with the neighboring sisters, was surprised to see the two n at the gate and imdiately smiled warmly.
“Oh, Xiaoshen is here. Co in, co in. Auntie bought a lot of delicious things today. Let know what you’d like to eat and I’ll make it for you.”
Lu Xiao, upon hearing this: “…”
Whose mother was she, after all?
A few of the neighboring sisters, seeing the two handso young n, their eyes shone with excitent.
Shen Lin, facing the enthusiastic Lu Xiao’s mother: “…”
