Su Yangs question was reasonable.

In essence, Zhao Lichengs wife and Old Cao have already settled the deal and have nothing to do with each other anymore. So, its very strange for Old Cao to suddenly ask Zhao Licheng out.

Unless Hes discovered something abnormal with Zhao Licheng?

Just as Su Yang was thinking about this, he saw Zhao Licheng giving him a look and Su Yang immediately understood that there might be something else going on. However, because Chu Xia was present, it was not convenient for him to talk about it.

At that moment, Chu Xia realized that she might be interrupting Su Yangs work. Hence, she took the initiative to tell Su Yang, Su Yang, since Mr. Zhao is looking for you about some matters, Ill go home myself.

Ive always travelled home by myself during the summer. So its very safe.

Before Su Yang could reply, Pan Zhaodi said, Mr. Su, Ill drive your car and send Ms. Chu Xia home.

Su Yang thought about it and agreed. Its safer than Chu Xia going home on her own. After all, with Pan Zhaodis martial arts skills, no random expert would be able to take her down. Hence, he nodded and agreed.

Su Yang passed the car keys to Pan Zhaodi and Chu Xia said goodbye to Su Yang before leaving with her.

After the two of them left, Zhao Licheng closed the door and whispered to Su Yang, This afternoon, Old Cao called my wife and said that he wanted to talk about something. I feel that something is amiss.

Su Yang asked, What do you think is amiss?

Zhao Licheng shook his head slightly and said, Im not sure. Its probably my Instincts.

Su Yang asked, What time is the appointment?

Zhao Licheng looked at the time and said, Weve still got two and a half hours to go.

Although I dont know what Zhao Licheng is worrying about, since hes already come and asked for me, plus hes just given me 1.6 billion yuan for free, I suppose its only reasonable for me to go along with my five-star talent.

Therefore, the two started chatting in the chairmans office.

Zhao Licheng sat on the sofa with his head lowered. He frowned and said, Mr. Su, Ive been feeling that somethings weird these past few days actually.

Su Yang sat opposite Zhao Licheng and looked at the five-star talent in front of him as he asked in confusion, Whats weird?

Zhao Licheng said, I dont know either. Maybe Maybe its because there doesnt seem to be too much of an impact ever since Ive died.

Other than Old Zhang, my wife and a few familiar friends, everyone else is treating my death as if its insignificant.

Su Yang consoled him. Humans are actually very insignificant, so the greatness of life lies in oneself.

In other words, youre the only one who would think that your life is very valuable, but other than your friends and family, youre nothing but a stranger to them and your death was nothing but a number on the news.

Zhao Licheng nodded. I understand what you mean. But Im not thinking about this matter emotionally. Im speaking from an objective point of view.

As the CEO of the company, everything in the company has to go through my hands, which includes all the plans which would need my approval in order to proceed.

Normally speaking, if I suddenly died, the company would experience a period of turbulence and many operational issues would arise because of it.

But As far as I know, nothings happened at all.

It seems as though no one is surprised by my death. Everything is proceeding smoothly.

Then, Su Yang raised his eyebrows. Are you suspecting that your car accident was not actually an accident?

Zhao Licheng looked at Su Yang and smiled bitterly. Then, he said honestly, To be honest, this isnt the first time Ive suspected it, Mr. Su.

In fact

He paused for a moment and looked at Su Yang cautiously. You were actually my first suspect

[Space Traversing Eyes] judged it as. [Sincere], [Guilty]

Su Yang was confused.

Hes suspecting me?

Su Yang pondered for a moment. I guess he does have a point.

If I were to have died suddenly and another persons gone and revived him to ask me to work for him, I would probably suspect that this person was the one who killed me deliberately.

So, Zhao Lichengs suspicion towards me is reasonable.

Hence, Su Yang nodded. Then, why have you stopped suspecting me later on?

Zhao Licheng coughed and said, After spending so much time with you, Mr. Su, I feel that although you have a lot of superpowers and are very rich, youre still a very naive person.

In fact, you could also say that you havent been tainted by the societys corruption and have a very pure heart.

Although you may sometimes stir up some strange troubles deliberately, or even go overboard on some matters, youve still got a very kind heart deep down.

Su Yang listened quietly as Zhao Licheng praised him. Why do I feel like hes describing me as being childish

Hence, Su Yang could not be bothered to listen to Zhao Licheng carry on and asked directly, So, youre now suspecting that its Old Cao?

Zhao Licheng nodded. He seems more suspicious.

Also After thinking about it further, I get the feeling that he wasnt all that concerned when he was negotiating with me about the 12% of my shares and didnt care about the 1.6 billion yuan at all. So, I cant shake the feeling that hes got a much bigger secret.

So, for the sake of our future plans, I have no choice but to be cautious and ask for your help.

Su Yang nodded his head slightly. He now knew why Zhao Licheng wanted him to stay. If Old Cao really has enough money, he would become a huge threat to our future plans to empty out Xinli Education, thus explaining why Zhao Licheng is being cautious.

While the two were chatting, Zhao Lichengs wife arrived at the office. This was probably not her first time at Jiadian E-Commerce Company since she acted like she was very familiar with the place and headed straight to the chairmans office.

Based on this, Su Yang felt that the couples relationship was developing well and was not as unsuitable as Su Yang had imagined.

After chatting with the two, the three of them drove to the place where Old Cao had arranged to meet.

Shortly after, the car stopped in front of a high-end hotel and the three of them alighted from the car. Then, Zhao Lichengs wife led the way while Su Yang and Zhao Licheng chatted quietly behind them.

After asking for Old Caos room, the three of them went upstairs to the private room.

Pushing open the door, Old Cao had already arrived, but he was alone and did not bring anyone else with him.

Old Cao was obviously surprised that Zhao Lichengs wife had brought so many people with her. He looked up at the three of them and said with a serious expression, Shanshan, do you not trust me? Why have you brought so many people to meet me?

[Space Traversing Eyes] judged it as. [Unhappy]

Su Yang looked at Zhao Lichengs wife and Old Cao. He felt that something was amiss.

Isnt he being a little too intimate with her?

Zhao Lichengs wife was also confused. Dont call me so intimately and call me Madam Zhao or Sister-In-Law please.

Although Zhao Lichengs wife said so, Old Cao did not care at all. He laughed and said, Old Zhao is already long dead, so do you still need to be bothered about this?

Also, whats with this Sister-In-Law? Ive never treated you as my sister-in-law in the first place.

Su Yang, the young man who was watching the scenario being played before him found it really awkward. Whys there something wrong with the plot of this drama?

He glanced at the young Zhao Licheng.

Zhao Licheng was indeed a five-star talent. Even when Old Cao teased his wife in front of him, his expression remained calm.

However, Su Yang accidentally caught a glimpse of Zhao Lichengs right hand and noticed that his knuckles had turned white. Obviously, hes not as calm as he looks.

Just when Su Yang thought that there was something wrong with Old Cao and Zhao Lichengs wife, something strange happened. Zhao Lichengs wife was still confused and looked at Old Cao as if she was looking at a lunatic. What are you talking about? Do you actually know what youre talking about?

[Space Traversing Eyes] judged it as. [Anger], [Confusion]

Eh?

This is strange.

Zhao Lichengs wife actually doesnt have any feelings for Old Cao? In fact, shes even finding it strange that Old Cao is addressing her so intimately?

Didnt these two address each other like this before?

Then, could it be an unrequited relationship on Old Caos side?

Just as Su Yang was puzzled, Old Cao spoke, Shanshan, are you really going to let them stand here and listen to our matters?

[Spatial Traversing Eyes] judged it as. [Teasing], [Confident Of His Victory]

Zhao Lichengs wife frowned. What are you talking about?

She isnt intimidated by Old Cao, but I cant help but feel that something is amiss.

Then, he could not help but recall Zhao Licheng telling him that Old Cao was very willing to pay the price that he was being offered, coupled with the fact that Old Cao had requested to meet Zhao Lichengs wife, Su Yang could not help but think that it was very strange.

Hence, Su Yang tugged at Zhao Licheng and said to Zhao Lichengs wife, Madam Zhao, it seems like you have some private matters to deal with with him. Why dont we stay outside for a while?

Then, seeing that Zhao Lichengs wife was about to reject him, he added, Dont worry, well just be out by the door. So, if there are any problems, well come in immediately. You dont have to worry about your safety.

After Su Yang said that, Zhao Licheng and Su Yang exchanged glances. After confirming that Su Yangs eyes were filled with confidence, Zhao Lichengs wife nodded her head as she remembered that Su Yang was an immortal with superpowers that surpassed everyones imagination.

Theres only going to be one door in between us, so there shouldnt be any problems.

Zhao Licheng initially wanted to object. However, after hearing what Su Yang said, he relaxed his fists and nodded silently.

Obviously, all three of them knew that the best way to find out Old Caos secret was to give him some privacy.

However, Su Yang would not be so foolish as to leave just like that. Before he left the room, he secretly touched his ear and threw his bone-conduction earphone on the floor.

Little Deenys earpiece was not only able to hear voices, but it also had a microphone. Hence, Su Yang could hear everything that was going on inside.

After leaving the room with Zhao Licheng, Su Yang leaned against the wall and took out a second set of bone-conduction earphones. Then, he passed one to Zhao Licheng and put the other one on himself.

This way, the both of them could hear what was happening inside.

Zhao Licheng took the earpiece and stuck it to his ear like Su Yang. Then, he listened to Old Cao patiently.

After the two left, Old Cao started to reveal his trump card.

He took out a bag of something and threw it on the table before he said to Zhao Lichengs wife, Take a look at this, Shanshan.
