Chapter 525: It’s Useless Even If You Kill Me
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The Mu family did not go bankrupt, but Mu Qingya could not drag the Mu family into this. Just let Yun Shujing hold her head high, let her hold this sense of superiority until the moment when everyone spurned her. Therefore, Mu Qingya, who was sober, had to treat herself as an accessory to Huo Shengyuan. Only then could she give the mother and son the heaviest blow.
Duan Yanxing spent a few days trying to figure out the name list Huo Jiuxiao had given him, because these people were too difficult to find. They were unsociable and hard to find, and Huo Shengyuan had set up many obstacles. Looking at the security, Duan Yanxing was even more certain that the contents of the safe were important to Huo Shengyuan.
It was only on the morning before Huo Zizhen’s wedding that Duan Yanxing finally decided on a candidate. Based on his childhood memories, he knew that this person and Huo Shengyuan had been friends since childhood, so he gave this person’s name to Huo Jiuxiao.
“Xu Ling, 25 years old, racing business. On the surface, he had no contact with Huo Shengyuan at all. After all, their circles had never crossed each other. However, it was precisely because of this that I found it strange. In my memory, Xu Ling was Huo Shengyuan’s shadow. They were inseparable. Why did they lose contact with each other when they were both successful in their careers? So, I reorganized and found out that the two of them would appear at the same place every week, Shengjing Restaurant. I also found out that Xu Ling is a VIP member of Hongfeng Bank.”
“Got it.” Huo Jiuxiao replied.
“How do you plan to pry open this person’s mouth?”
This shouldn’t be an easy task.
Xu Ling was an orphan, and he was a loner who liked excitement. He couldn’t even find a fixed partner by his side. This was probably why Huo Shengyuan trusted him. He had no weaknesses.
“We’ll only know if there’s a chance tonight.”
“I’ll arrange it, but you’ve already set a dead end for Huo Shengyuan. There’s no need to look for this safe.”
“There’s no need for that, but based on my understanding of Huo Shengyuan, there’s a high chance that Yun Shujing or the other shareholders might be hiding something in this safe.”
Duan Yanxing was silent for two seconds. He felt that it was indeed possible.
“Xu Ling likes boxing. He’ll be at his friend’s boxing gym tonight. The event starts at 10 o’clock.”
“Bring some people over first and quietly control the scene. Leave the rest to me.”
It had been a long time since Duan Yanxing had seen Huo Jiuxiao work, so he was inexplicably excited. Xu Ling would obviously be a tough nut to crack, but it was hard to say if he met MasterXiao.
At nine o’clock in the evening, the entire Jinzhou was covered in snow and rain. It was unusually cold. At this time, Huo Jiuxiao, who was wearing a black coat, was planning to go out with Lin Wanli.
Yun Shujing and the others were in the living room, confirming the guest list and all the procedures for tomorrow’s wedding. Seeing that the couple was about to leave, they could not help but be sarcastic again.
“Your sister’s wedding banquet is tomorrow. You’re not going out at this time to plan something, are you?”
Huo Jiuxiao couldn’t hear her in the first place, and he didn’t plan to let Lin Wanli respond this time. He held Lin Wanli’s arm and walked straight to the Huo family’s door. As for Huo Zizhen and Mu Qingya, they secretly exchanged glances because they had a hunch that Huo Jiuxiao’s trip tonight had something to do with Huo Shengyuan’s safe.
Seeing that the two of them were too lazy to even say anything, Yun Shujing instructed the butler. “Keep an eye on these two. Don’t let them make any mistakes at the critical moment.”
“Yes, Madam.” The butler agreed.
But in fact, Huo Zizhen and Huo Zizhen knew very well who the butler was, and the butler would definitely be able to come up with a very reasonable itinerary to help cover for them. It was just that he did not know if the two of them would be able to gain anything from this trip.
“After waiting for thousands of times, tomorrow is finally here. You are finally going to get married…”
“Yes, I am.” Huo Zizhen smiled hypocritically. “Tomorrow, Mom, I’ve prepared a gift for you too.”
A gift full of surprises.
The butler had arranged a car for Huo Jiuxiao and his mother, but because it was still early, the butler had someone take them somewhere else so that he could create some imaginary itinerary to numb Huo Shengyuan and his mother.
At ten o’clock sharp, Huo Jiuxiao brought Lin Wanli to the boxing gym on time. At this time, Duan Yanxing and Yan Qiu had already taken their seats and bribed most of the boxing gym’s staff.
