My daily mountain driving, I met a fox at the beginning and got married

Luo Shui was able to maintain his composure at first, but as Chen Zixuan talked more and more, more and more images flashed through his mind. Finally, he couldn't bear it any longer and loudly interrupted him: "Enough, stop talking!"

"What's wrong?" Chen Zixuan was startled, not understanding why the young man had suddenly become angry.

"What regret about not disciplining him? How many times a year do you see your son? What makes you so sure he's a good-for-nothing who only knows how to smoke, drink, and chase women? Have you ever seriously talked to him? No! You only know about your son from other people's stories. Do you really believe everything other people say?"

"Don't pretend to be heartbroken. If you really cared, you wouldn't have raised your son to be like that, and you wouldn't have let the family fall into this state! You're a complete scoundrel and a total failure as a father!"

Luo Shui's accusations were extremely sharp, leaving Chen Zixuan stunned and speechless.

The other person's words were like bullets aimed precisely at his weaknesses, leaving him completely unable to refute them.

Chen Zixuan stared blankly at the masked young man in front of him, as if bewitched, and reached out to remove the mask.

After venting her emotions, Luo Shui suddenly came to her senses, leaned back to avoid Chen Zixuan's hand, and said coldly, "What do you want to do?"

"Sorry, the way you were talking just now sounded so much like my son, so I just wanted to see what you look like."

"No need!" Luo Shui was about to turn around and leave, but as soon as he turned around, Chen Zixuan grabbed his arm.

Chen Zixuan was an old man after all, and if Luo Shui struggled too hard, she might push the old man down and injure him.

Luo Shui said impatiently, "Let go!"

"Young man, I'm Chen Zixuan. If you follow business, you should know I'm the richest man in the area. You saved me, and I want to repay you properly. So, let me see what you look like, or leave me your contact number..."

As if drawn by some unseen force, Chen Zixuan saw the shadow of his eldest son in this young man, and a feeling of being touched stirred within him, so he couldn't help but stop him.

"No need! I just helped out, let me go."

Luo Shui took a deep breath, intending to pry Chen Zixuan's hands off, but Chen Zixuan held on tightly. In the struggle, Luo Shui's mask accidentally fell off.

The sound of the mask falling to the ground rang out. Chen Zixuan saw the young man's face clearly, his eyes widened instantly, and he stood there stunned.

Chen Zixuan's eyes instantly reddened, and tears welled up in his cloudy eyes: "It's you! An Shui... how could you..."

Upon hearing the ambulance siren, Luo Shui's face darkened. She picked up the mask from the ground, put it back on, and turned to leave, not wanting to stay a moment longer.

Ignoring his sprained ankle, Chen Zixuan forcefully blocked his way: "Don't go! You stay here and explain yourself! The police have already ruled that you fell into the water and are missing or dead. If you're alright, why aren't you going home?"

Luo Shui's forehead veins bulged, and she clenched her fists: "Go back for what? Go back to that cold, lifeless house, and listen to you curse me again? Enough, just pretend I'm dead!"

Chen Zixuan was so angry that she cried and cursed, "You bastard! What are you saying? You have to come back with me now! If you don't come back, believe me, I'll cut off your allowance!"

"Fine, let's cut ties then. Anyway, I don't want you as my father, and you don't want me as your son. You don't need to support me anymore. Just pretend I'm dead, so you won't suspect me of coveting your family fortune all the time."

When the topic of family property came up, Luo Shui's eyes were full of mockery.

Just then, the ambulance arrived and stopped in front of them. The paramedics who got out of the ambulance looked at the scene with great embarrassment.

"Excuse me... who is the injured person?" The paramedic stepped forward, raised his hand to ask, and broke the awkward silence.

Luo Shui pointed at Chen Zixuan without any politeness and said to the paramedic, "This is the old man. He twisted his ankle. Get him to treatment right away."

Chen Zixuan immediately saw that Luo Shui was trying to slip away, so he gripped his arm even tighter, refusing to let go no matter what, and shouted loudly, "He's my son! If anything happens to this old man of mine, he has to be by my side to take care of him!"

"I'm not your son, let me go!" Luo Shui struggled and shouted.

The paramedics looked at the two of them and noticed that they did indeed share some similarities in their features. Moreover, according to hospital regulations, elderly patients usually need to have a caregiver present, just in case; having someone by their side to look after them is certainly more reassuring.

"Young man, look at his age. If something happens to him, it will be difficult for our hospital to explain. Why don't you come with him?" the paramedic advised.

Luo Shui looked disgusted and refused repeatedly, but the doctor said that he was indeed required for the paperwork and he couldn't refuse. Luo Shui could only get into the ambulance with a depressed look on his face.

Meanwhile, the driver who fled in panic was so frightened that he didn't dare to call his employer to report on the mission's progress. In addition, since he had already pocketed the mission funds given to him by his employer, he felt increasingly guilty and decided to go all the way and choose the gray route, smuggling himself out of the country overnight.

Wei Zhiyuan waited and waited, but the driver's mission report never came, and his heart was filled with anxiety. He sent another person to investigate, and it turned out that the driver had embezzled the funds he had given to hire an assassin and had gone abroad to live a carefree life!

Wei Zhiyuan was furious, and upon hearing that Chen Zixuan was still alive, he was terrified. That old fox Chen Zixuan was not someone to be trifled with.

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, so Wei Zhiyuan hurriedly went to find Lu Yuxuan.

Lu Yuxuan was exhausted, but Wei Zhiyuan calling at this hour must mean something urgent. Plus, Chen Zixuan was coming back soon, and she needed to reassure him. After much thought, Lu Yuxuan finally decided to go out and see him.

In a VIP room at a high-end restaurant, Wei Zhiyuan drank red wine in a daze, completely uninterested in the bustling traffic outside the window.

His mind was filled with the thought that Chen Zixuan wasn't dead and had already discovered their plan. Being targeted by that old man meant they might be exposed!

Wei Zhiyuan was feeling very upset when he saw Lu Yuxuan push the door open and walk in. His eyes lit up as if he had seen a savior.

"You've come!" Wei Zhiyuan pulled out a chair for her with great care, his words full of tenderness that hadn't been seen in a long time.

Having just experienced such a terrifying ordeal, Lu Yuxuan was now physically and mentally exhausted. She asked weakly, "Alright, enough nonsense, what did you call me here for?"

“I told you before that we should act quickly, but you said you wanted to postpone it for a while. I always felt that if we postponed it, something bad would definitely happen, so I secretly bribed that old guy’s driver to help me contact an assassin and kill that old guy from the inside. Who knew that bastard would embezzle the money I gave him to hire an assassin and planned to do it himself. As a result, the assassination failed, and he fled abroad alone…” Wei Zhiyuan explained the whole story in a few words.

Lu Yuxuan was leisurely pouring red wine when she heard this. Her movements suddenly froze, and the expensive bottle of red wine in her hand crashed to the ground with a "smash." Glass shards and red wine splashed everywhere, making a mess all over the floor.

Lu Yuxuan's eyes widened, her whole body trembling like a leaf, her voice hoarse with tension and fear: "What did you say..."

“I did something stupid. We may have alerted him... That old guy probably already knows we’re working against him in secret.”

Wei Zhiyuan said with difficulty.

Lu Yuxuan could no longer maintain her composed and elegant demeanor. Enraged, she slapped Wei Zhiyuan across the face.

The slap was so powerful that it swelled up Wei Zhiyuan's face.

“Our hasty action against Chen Anshui has already aroused that old guy's suspicion. I've been extremely careful, afraid to do anything that might arouse his suspicion. I told you not to rush, not to rush! And you still went and acted in secret! Have you lost your mind?”

Lu Yuxuan was so angry that she started cursing and even cried in the end.

If what they've done is exposed, they'll probably spend the rest of their lives in jail, and might even be sentenced to death!
Wei Zhiyuan covered his slapped face, furious but afraid to retaliate. Finally, he took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, saying, "The most important thing now is to kill that old guy quietly before he realizes what's happening. Anyway, he's already old, or you could just let your..."

Before she could finish speaking, Lu Yuxuan broke down and yelled, "Shut up! That brat has already lost control! Don't you already know that?"

As Wei Zhiyuan was speaking, he suddenly saw a black shadow behind Lu Yuxuan, which looked like a newborn baby!

The ghostly infant grinned at Wei Zhiyuan, its eyes narrowed to slits, revealing a mouthful of black teeth. It even stuck out its tongue and licked its lips, like a hungry wolf staring at its prey, wanting to swallow him whole.

Wei Zhiyuan shuddered and shivered: "Why did you bring this brat out?"

If Wei Zhiyuan had stumbled upon this scene without warning, he probably would have been terrified. But since he had personally gone to a small Southeast Asian country and spent a lot of money to bring back this guardian spirit, he was somewhat familiar with it, and after the initial shock, he managed to calm himself down.

These little devils are highly sought-after in the community; they're made from fully formed fetuses. Special magic is used to trap their souls within the fetal bodies, and then through magical guidance, these ghost infants learn to protect people's fortune.

In wealthy circles, or more precisely, in the circle of gold diggers, keeping ghost children is extremely popular. These women, hoping to snag a rich husband and improve their future fortune, spare no expense to hire ghost children to protect their luck.

Lu Yuxuan was no exception.

Normally, these little ghosts stay in the place where they are worshipped and don't go out with their masters. But now, this little ghost is openly following Lu Yuxuan around!
what on earth is it?

"This brat has gone out of control and won't listen to me at all. Don't even think about using him to kill Chen Zixuan."

After crying, Lu Yuxuan released all her pent-up frustration and gradually calmed down. She saw through Wei Zhiyuan's thoughts at a glance and said coldly, "This little devil almost exposed me, you know? To exorcise the evil spirit, I hired a real master. That master saw through my raising of a little devil at a glance, but he has to deal with another little devil in the villa first, so he hasn't discovered that I have another one hiding in my body yet."

“If he gets in touch with this brat, he might find out what we did in the past. These past few days, I was planning to slowly get close to him, arrange for someone to seduce him, get him to help me solve the problem, and then promise to keep my secret. I've been so worried about this that I'm almost losing all my hair, and you still... you've made such a mess of things for me!”

Lu Yuxuan grew angrier as she spoke, and grabbed a napkin from the table and threw it at Wei Zhiyuan's face.

Wei Zhiyuan dared not resist and could only ask awkwardly, "Then what should we do now? That old man is still in the hospital. Once he's discharged, won't we be..."

Lu Yuxuan took a deep breath and gritted her teeth, saying, "That old man still likes me quite a bit, so I'll deal with him personally. You secretly contact Mr. Han and try to bribe him to promise to keep the secret, understand?"

"Okay," Wei Zhiyuan reluctantly agreed.

Then, they discussed their next course of action. Nearly half an hour later, Lu Yuxuan finally dragged her exhausted body out of the restaurant.

After returning home, Lu Yuxuan immediately put on makeup to conceal the fatigue on her face. She planned to visit that old man in the hospital and bring the child along.

When Chen Anshi heard that his father was in the hospital, he was very nervous and went with his mother without thinking twice.

After confirming that the old man was alright at the hospital, Luo Shui didn't want to stay a moment longer and left with a cold face.

Chen Zixuan was left alone in the empty hospital room, filled with sadness and grief.

He was devastated and filled with regret when he heard that his eldest son, Chen Anshui, had accidentally drowned. If he had taken the child under his wing and disciplined him more strictly earlier, he wouldn't have let him get drunk and drown.

Chen Zixuan was overjoyed to learn that his child was still alive. However, judging from the information revealed by the child, the child seemed to have no good impression of his father, and even loathed him.

That's fine, he thought. Although he hadn't fulfilled his responsibilities as a father, he had at least not mistreated his child.

Why does this child hate him so much?

Chen Zixuan was completely baffled. Just then, the police called. As a seasoned businessman, Chen Zixuan had already filed a police report.

The assassination of the local tycoon is a major incident, and the police immediately launched an investigation. The only findings they discovered were that the killer's driver seemed to be in debt from gambling and desperately needed a large sum of money; was the murder motivated by a cash robbery?

The police informed Chen Zixuan of the investigation results with uncertainty, but Chen Zixuan was not surprised at all. He knew that the person behind it would definitely handle the subsequent evidence chain cleanly and would never let the police trace it back to him.

If the driver hadn't been a first-time offender and hadn't been so nervous, he wouldn't have had the chance to escape from the car.

Chen Zixuan clearly told the police that he did not accept the investigation results and demanded that the investigation continue. The police agreed, saying they would continue the investigation, and also mentioned the strange Hadalina case that had occurred in their family before. (End of this chapter)
