After I left home with a broken heart, my whole family begged me to come back
Chapter 105 Not Simple
Chapter 105 Not Simple
The corners of Lu Tingfeng's mouth twitched fiercely. What sin had he committed?
It's fine that his sister is obsessed with Xie, but these two guys actually feed dog food to him, a bachelor since birth!
"If I have the chance in the future, I will play it for you every day!" Lu Yuanyuan sat opposite Xie Chen, holding her chin with both hands, looking at Xie Chen with stars in her eyes.
Without waiting for Xie Chen to answer, he took out his cell phone and took a selfie with Xie Chen.
In the photo, Lu Yuanyuan is smiling brightly, while Xie Chen looks a little stunned and confused.
"Cough, cough, cough!" Lu Tingfeng coughed heavily twice.
Listen to what your sister is saying!
What does it mean to play it for him every day?
What does it matter if I play it for him every day?
Xie Chen raised his hand and touched his nose, then said "Okay" in cooperation.
Lu Yuanyuan finally noticed that Xie Chen had two cuffs pinned on the cuffs of his shirt.
She thought she would never find the cufflinks that Xie Ci had lost.
Lu Yuanyuan's eyes lit up again, "Did you find the cufflinks I gave you?"
Xie Chen nodded slightly, “Xie Ling picked it up, and happened to meet me today, so he returned it to me.”
Lu Yuanyuan smiled with her eyebrows curved, "That's great!"
The gift she gave to Xie Chen was found.
The gift Xie Chen gave her was also very much to her liking.
Double happiness.
Xie Chen smiled and raised his eyes slightly.
"Who is that person?" Xie Chen's eyes fell on the middle-aged man in the black suit.
Lu Yuanyuan looked back, looking confused, "Although today is my eighteenth birthday, I don't know many of the guests attending the party. Do you believe it?"
Xie Chen smiled and was about to brush this question aside, but Lu Tingfeng had already spoken to help Xie Chen clear up his confusion, "The head of the Jiang family in Shanghai, Jiang Feng."
Xie Chen raised his eyebrows. "People from Shanghai came to Jingzhou to attend Yuanyuan's 18th birthday ceremony?"
Lu Tingfeng picked up the drink on the table and took a sip. "What a coincidence. He is in Jingzhou these days."
Xie Chen did not ask any more questions, but just looked at Jiang Feng again with a complicated expression.
Jiang Feng seemed to have noticed something and his eyes met Xie Chen's in mid-air.
The next moment, Jiang Feng slightly raised the corners of his lips and smiled at Xie Chen.
Since the two of them had never met each other before, Jiang Feng's smile seemed extremely strange.
Xie Chen's eyes suddenly felt a sharp pain, as if he was stung by something, and the jade pendant that Kong Yun gave him emitted a burning sensation on his chest.
Xie Chen quickly turned his gaze away and rubbed his eyes.
Xie Chen has been learning skills from Kong Yun for some time, and the pain in his eyes just now was definitely not without reason.
That Jiang Feng, he also has some skills.
"The Jiang family in Shanghai is also a legendary family. Thirty years ago, Jiang Feng's father Jiang Zhe went out to work alone. In just twenty years, he created the unlimited glory of the Jiang family in Shanghai today..." Lu Tingfeng sighed, "This Jiang family is unique in the country."
There are many nouveau riche in this world, but there are very few who have become top-notch nouveau riche like the Jiang family.
Xie Chen's eyes moved slightly.
Thirty years ago…
Thirty years ago, the Xie family seemed to have just become prosperous.
Lu Yuanyuan’s birthday party ended very late.
When Xie Chen walked out of the Lu family's gate, the sky was already full of stars and a cold moon. "Otherwise, stay tonight." Lu Yuanyuan stood at the door and tried to persuade Xie Chen to stay.
Xie Chen refused, "I have something else to do when I get home, let's make an appointment next time."
Lu Yuanyuan had no choice but to send the Lu family's driver to take Xie Chen away.
When the Lu family's driver drove out of the Lu family's villa area, Xie Chen inadvertently glanced out of the car window.
There seemed to be a layer of light mist lingering in the sky above the Lu family's house, which was originally brightly lit.
Xie Chen raised his hand and rubbed his eyes. Tonight, something was wrong with his eyes, and they felt burning and painful from time to time.
When Xie Chen returned to his courtyard and saw Kong Yun, Kong Yun was almost frightened to death by Xie Chen's eyes that were swollen like walnuts.
"Didn't you go to your classmate's birthday party? Did you see something you shouldn't have? Your eyes are swollen like this." Kong Yun came over and looked at Xie Chen's eyes carefully, and his old eyes slowly narrowed.
"Something's wrong." Kong Yun looked into Xie Chen's eyes for a while, his eyes suddenly became sharp, "Someone is targeting you."
Kong Yun's face darkened. Xie Chen was his apprentice, and now his apprentice was not skilled enough and was being targeted. This was a slap in his face!
Kong Yun turned and went into the room. After a while, he got out a pool of mud-like stuff from somewhere and asked Xie Chen to apply it on his eyes.
Although Xie Chen was disgusted with the thing Kong Yun brought over, his eyes were really hurting, so he obediently applied the thing on his eyes.
A strong smell of Chinese herbal medicine rushed into his nose, and Xie Chen's eyes felt a burst of coolness.
Kong Yun sat aside, looking out the window, "Who did you meet today?"
Xie Chen told about Jiang Feng, about whom he felt something was wrong.
"Jiang Feng?" Kong Yun slowly pondered the name, "Jiang family..."
"Master, do you know him?" Xie Chen was a little curious.
"I don't know this Jiang Feng, but I have some impression of the old man from the Jiang family." Kong Yun sat on the sofa, his expression becoming more and more solemn. "If the Jiang family really wanted to harm you, they would have been secretly tripping you up, making you run around putting out fires and being too busy to take care of yourself. Why did you expose yourself?"
Xie Chen didn't say anything.
The main reason why the Xie family has fallen into its current situation is because of human nature.
Even if there was an element of conspiracy among them, if everyone had good intentions and were united, they would not have been deceived to this extent.
Therefore, he had no sympathy for the Xie family.
However, if the other party plots against him, the nature of the matter will be different.
"I asked the old man from the Xie family to check the people who renovated his house back then." Kong Yun continued, "Dig a three-meter-deep pit and bury the people underground. This project is a bit big and cannot be completed in a short time."
"That person was either brought in during renovation or when the house was being built..."
"At least, that person must have been underground for thirty years..."
Thirty years...
Another thirty years passed.
"The Jiang family is one of the most powerful families in Shanghai. You are applying to a university in Shanghai this time. If they really want to target you, you will be walking into a trap if you go to Shanghai to study."
Kong Yun chattered incessantly in Xie Chen's ear, but Xie Chen's mind was clearer than ever before.
Regardless of whether the Jiang family was the mastermind behind the scheme against the Xie family, they are not clean.
Half an hour later, Xie Chen took the stuff off his eyes, and the swelling on his eyes had gone down.
The cell phone rang at this time.
The call was from Lu Yuanyuan.
Xie Chen answered the phone, his tone more serious than ever, "Yuanyuan, have someone check to see if your house has been tampered with."
