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

Lu Yuxuan breathed a sigh of relief. Great! The other party didn't demand an immediate solution, which would allow her a few days to implement her plan.

"I know Mr. Zhang must have a way to stop that little devil from doing evil. Mr. Zhang, please suppress that little devil for now and prevent it from doing anything immoral. I will explain the rest to you in detail later."

After saying that, she seemed to realize that her tone had been too harsh, and asked gently, "Mr. Zhang, is this alright? I will give you some compensation for the lost wages these few days."

That's quite a generous offer!
Luo Shui, wearing a mask, cast a disdainful glance at the woman.

Lu Yuxuan didn't notice; she smiled and waited for the other person's response.

Zhang Hao could sense that this woman was plotting something, but with his current strength, very few people would dare to scheme against him so openly.

Zhang Hao became genuinely interested; he wanted to see what this woman was up to.

"Of course, no problem." Under the other person's nervous gaze, Zhang Hao readily agreed to her suggestion.

Lu Yuxuan was overjoyed and became much more enthusiastic towards Zhang Hao.

After Zhang Hao left the villa and got into his car, with no one else around, Luo Shui finally spoke up: "Mr. Zhang, that woman is clearly plotting something. Are you just going to cooperate with her like this?"

Luo Shui's words seemed to carry a hint of worry, but Zhang Hao calmly replied, "Anyway, it's not my family's business. By the way, why are you so nervous? Are you worried that she's plotting against Chen Zixuan?"

Luo Shui, like a cat with its fur standing on end, angrily denied it: "No! What does the Chen family's situation have to do with me? I don't care about that old man."

Zhang Hao smiled and didn't say anything more.

Upon arriving at his home office, Zhang Hao turned to him meaningfully before getting out of the car and said, "I'm not busy these days, so you don't need to follow me around. Do whatever you need to do, as long as you don't do anything illegal or disorderly. I'll support you. It's best to resolve any obsessions in your heart as soon as possible. If they develop into inner demons, it won't be good for your future cultivation."

Luo Shui's expression stiffened slightly. She pursed her lips and said weakly, "Mr. Zhang, when you say that, you really sound like one of those charlatans who cheat people out of their money."

Zhang Hao laughed heartily, turned around and left with a flourish: "Well, there's nothing I can do about it. That's just how I was born."

Zhang Hao walked through the door, his figure completely disappearing from Luo Shui's sight. Luo Shui muttered softly, "Actually, he's not a wandering magician, but a reclusive master. Thank you, Mr. Zhang."

Luo Shui didn't say anything more and drove away. Judging from the direction he drove, he was obviously going to the park near the hospital where Chen Zixuan was hospitalized.

As soon as Luo Shui appeared in the park, a man dressed in ordinary sportswear walked up to him.

"Young Master Chen Anshui, the chairman wishes to see you. Please come with me."

Luo Shui glanced at him coldly, still with that indifferent look that made her dislike him, just like that old man.

Thinking of that damned old man, Luo Shui said coldly, "What if I don't want to go?"

"The chairman said that if Chen Anshui is unwilling, then we'll make him agree!"

The blatant threat in those words was obvious to anyone.

Luo Shui's eyes widened, she trembled with rage, and she cursed loudly, "That old geezer is still so arrogant and conceited! You think I'm afraid..."

Actually, Luo Shui's original intention was to remind the old man to be careful of Lu Yuxuan and not to be deceived by that woman.

But who would have thought that as soon as he arrived, the old man's men jumped out like mad dogs and tried to drag him back!

Before he could even speak, the bodyguard struck, slapping a pressure point on his lower back. Before Luo Shui could even react, his movable joints were firmly pinned down.

This fighting technique, which involves subduing someone without causing injury, is clearly a tactic circulating within law enforcement agencies.

Although the bodyguard tried to keep his movements low, he still aroused suspicion from passersby.

People strolling in the park cast puzzled glances at them.

The bodyguard, however, remained completely unfazed and made up a story in front of everyone: "We are all instructors from the police academy. Old friends meeting up, let's have a friendly spar."

Upon hearing this, those people all turned around and walked away.

Luo Shui, who was under control, was forcibly taken to Chen Zixuan's ward by bodyguards.

Chen Zixuan leaned against the headboard, covered with a blanket, while his assistant stood beside him, reporting on recent events.

"...That's roughly what happened. My wife has been appearing at the company a lot more often lately, and she's also been in frequent contact with the company's vice president, Wei Zhiyuan."

After the assistant finished speaking, he calmly handed the documents to Chen Zixuan.

Chen Zixuan looked down and flipped through the document, which contained detailed records of all of his wife Lu Yuxuan's movements over the past two months.

The investigation into Lu Yuxuan was meticulous; everything that could be remembered was noted down.

Finally, Chen Zixuan sighed and said to his assistant, "You can go out first. My son and I have something to talk about."

The assistant seemed completely unsurprised by the reappearance of the "dead" young master. He nodded calmly, packed his things, and got up to leave.

Luo Shui was escorted to Chen Zixuan by bodyguards and forcibly pressed into a chair.

Luo Shui glared at him angrily. The bodyguard, receiving a signal from Chen Zixuan, nodded, turned and left, locking the door behind him.

"Why did you call me here?" Luo Shui asked in a very harsh tone.

"Am I not even allowed to see my own son?"

Luo Shui seemed to have thought of something, and a contemptuous smile appeared on her lips: "I remember you said that I am your disgrace, that you feel ashamed to see me."

Chen Zixuan recalled his past attitude towards this son, opened his mouth, but said nothing.

"My attitude towards you before was indeed wrong, but then again, were you completely without fault?"

Chen Zixuan asked with difficulty.

"What did I do wrong? I did nothing wrong. The one who's wrong is you, you old geezer!" Luo Shui retorted without even thinking, her eyes wide.

The two stared at each other, and the ward gradually quieted down.

"I don't want to argue with an old man like you. So, what do you want to say to me?"

As Luo Shui was glaring at her opponent, she suddenly noticed that her once tall and imposing father had become incredibly weak, his hair was completely white, and his face was covered with crisscrossing wrinkles; he was clearly an old man on the verge of death.

Sigh, why bother arguing with an old man?
Luo Shui chuckled to herself, thinking that she was probably still angry about what happened before, which was why she cared so much.

After a few minutes of silence, Chen Zixuan spoke with difficulty: "You fell into the water and died... was it an accident, or was it a deliberate scheme?"

When Luo Shui was asked this question, her gaze toward the old man became even more mocking and cold.

Being looked at like that by his own son, Chen Zixuan felt terrible.

"If I said that my drowning wasn't an accident, but rather that woman deliberately plotted against me, would you... would you believe me?" Chen Zixuan even stammered a little at the end because he was too nervous.

Looking at the old man's calm expression, Luo Shui felt nothing but mockery.

The old man only loves that woman, so why should I still have any expectations of him?

Anyway, I'm sure I'll come out worse off whenever that woman is involved. This old man looks like he's about to pass away, why should I bother with all this?

"If that's what you say, then I... believe you."

"Hehe, I knew you old man wouldn't believe... What?" Chen Zixuan paused for a moment, and the word "believe" that Luo Shui said made him think he was hallucinating.

Chen Zixuan calmly met his son's gaze and said quietly, "I believe you."

Luo Shui was somewhat incredulous: "What are you talking about? Are you just teasing me?"

"No, I believe you."

……

At the same time, Lu Yuxuan contacted Wei Zhiyuan and told him that she had arranged everything and that as long as they acted according to plan, the matter could be resolved smoothly, but the premise was that he had to cooperate, and cooperate at all costs.

Wei Zhiyuan naturally trusted Lu Yuxuan completely, after all, they had already been honest with each other in private and were already in the same boat.

Following Lu Yuxuan's instructions, Wei Zhiyuan secretly began to work within the company, starting to win over the directors of the board.

At the same time, Wei Zhiyuan also used the pretense of caring for his superior to visit Chen Zixuan in the hospital.

Following his plan, he feigned compliance with Chen Zixuan while simultaneously accelerating the implementation of his conspiracy.

After all, that old guy is terminally ill and doesn't have much time left, so we must make thorough preparations in advance, otherwise there will definitely be all sorts of problems when he takes over the company.

Chen Zixuan seemed completely unaware of Wei Zhiyuan's scheme.

After a week of recuperation in the hospital, Chen Zixuan met Wei Zhiyuan again, who came to visit him.

"Chairman, you look much better today. I'm sure you'll be able to recover and be discharged from the hospital soon."

Wei Zhiyuan handed over the flowers he had brought, his face beaming with smiles.

Chen Zixuan remained calm and asked indifferently, "Why hasn't the nurse who's supposed to change my dressing arrived yet?"

"The nurse had to leave temporarily, and since it was just a matter of delivering some medicine, I just brought it over for her."

Wei Zhiyuan placed a box of medicine on the table and poured Chen Zixuan a glass of water.

"Chairman, you must take your medicine on time. Please take your medicine first, and then I'll talk to you about business matters."

Chen Zixuan looked at the medicine with a cold expression, showing no intention of taking it.

"What's wrong with the chairman?" Wei Zhiyuan felt a little uneasy when he saw Chen Zixuan suddenly stop taking his medicine and stare at him intently.

He felt as if his carefully planned scheme had been seen through by the other party.

"I don't want to take medicine," Chen Zixuan said matter-of-factly.

Wei Zhiyuan cursed inwardly at the old man for being ungrateful and refusing to cooperate at this crucial moment.

But Chen Zixuan was still alive and held great power, so he had no choice but to suppress his inner turmoil and gently persuade him to take his medicine.

"Good medicine tastes bitter but is good for the disease. Besides, Chairman, you really need to take your medicine on time. If you don't take your medicine, your health will only get worse."

Wei Zhiyuan seemed genuinely concerned for Chen Zixuan, personally delivering the medicine to him.

Chen Zixuan looked coldly at the few pills in his palm and said meaningfully, "Are these really the medicine I should be taking?"

"Of course." Wei Zhiyuan's heart tightened, and he replied dryly.

His throat tightened, and his back was soaked with cold sweat.

“But I don’t think so…” Chen Zixuan sneered and suddenly shouted from outside.

In an instant, the bodyguards who had been sent away burst through the door.

Wei Zhiyuan turned pale with fright. His first thought was that his plan had been exposed. He wanted to run away, but it was too late.

Several bodyguards quickly blocked all his escape routes, leaving him with no way to escape.

Wei Zhiyuan was thus firmly controlled by the bodyguards, completely powerless to resist.

"I once heard someone say that you can't be too nice to a dog, otherwise the dog might become spoiled and stop guarding the house diligently."

Chen Zixuan looked at Wei Zhiyuan, who was being restrained by bodyguards, and said something that was hard to understand.

In the end, the bodyguard called the police, who took Wei Zhiyuan away, along with the pills and related evidence.

The moment Wei Zhiyuan was handcuffed, he felt utterly hopeless.

It's over, everything is over. All the plans I've meticulously crafted over so long have fallen apart at this crucial moment!
Thinking of this, Wei Zhiyuan gritted his teeth in hatred! Why did that old guy suddenly become wary at the last moment?

Didn't Lu Yuxuan say she would coax Chen Zixuan so he wouldn't have the energy to care about other things, and that even if Chen Zixuan sensed something, she would still whisper sweet nothings in his ear?

How did this old guy figure out my plan so quickly and even make arrangements in advance? Could it be that the woman was also exposed?

That's impossible. If it were really exposed, Lu Yuxuan wouldn't be able to contact me anymore. They've been chatting and communicating recently, and everything seems normal.

What went wrong?

Wei Zhiyuan couldn't understand it at all.

In the interrogation room, Wei Zhiyuan refused to cooperate with the interrogators' questions. No matter how they threatened or bribed him, he refused to reveal any information.

He knew very well that it was best not to say anything until he had contacted Lu Yuxuan and reconciled his statements.

More importantly, he also understood that as long as he gritted his teeth and didn't give in, once Lu Yuxuan inherited the Chen family's assets, she would still have a way to get him out of trouble thanks to the Chen family's power and status.

"Still refusing to say anything?" The head of the major crimes unit asked the police officer as he came out of the interrogation room.

The officer said wearily, "That's right. That guy is very stubborn and won't say anything. Besides, he has a certain status in society, so we don't dare to use special methods, otherwise it will cause trouble in terms of public opinion."

Zhang Hao and Luo Shui came from the next department and happened to run into the head of the Major Crimes Unit. The head of the Major Crimes Unit greeted them with a smile and was very friendly.

"I really didn't expect to run into you here, Mr. Zhang. And this is... "

Zhang Hao introduced her with a smile, saying that this was his assistant.

However, the assistant wore a large, brightly colored, painted face mask, which looked rather eerie. The head of the major crimes unit, recalling the strange nature of the cases this man had handled before, could understand the oddity of his attire.

These people are already mysterious, so it seems reasonable that their behavior and clothing are a bit strange.

"Mr. Zhang, this time I'm in charge of the case of Chen Zixuan's premeditated murder. I heard you've been involved in Chen family matters before, it seems we'll be working together again." (End of Chapter)
