Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Xia Yu poked Xu Wen’s forehead hard. “So, if you want to suffer, I have a way to make you suffer forever.”
Xu Wen nodded and shook her head stiffly, her body trembling uncontrollably.
She dared not utter a word.
Seeing her like this, Xia Yu snorted coldly and took out a pill. He forcefully opened her mouth and shoved the pill inside. “Antidote pill, don’t worry. You won’t have to suffer anymore. After plastic surgery in two days, you’ll be the real Xu Wen.”
Upon hearing this, a glimmer appeared in Xu Wen’s eyes. She cautiously asked, “Is it true? Can the scars on my face be removed?”
A teenage girl is at the age of admiring beauty. How could she possibly spend the rest of her life with a scarred face? Xia Yu gently touched her hair and smiled, “When have I ever disappointed you? But keep in mind, that the antidote has a time limit. However, rest assured, as long as I’m here, you’ll be the beautiful Xu Wen, the Eldest Miss of the Xu family.”
He laughed carelessly, his words causing Xu Wen to shiver. She recalled many unimaginable past events.
Seeing her frightened expression, Xia Yu became even happier, his lips curving into an attractive arc. “Alright, be obedient these days. Disturbing these people won’t do you any good. The Eldest Miss of the Xu family should learn to win people’s hearts; you need to maintain a good image.”
It was only when he left that Xu Wen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Quickly grabbing her phone, she considered exposing the photo. However, now that she was the Eldest miss of the Xu family, she couldn’t let this incident be associated with her.
Even if this matter were to spread, it couldn’t be done by her. She scrolled through Xu Wen’s WeChat friends and found someone useful.
Meanwhile, in a VIP room at the bar, Charlie revealed everything, “I believe both you and President Gu have investigated me. The youngest son of the Brown family is just an unloved illegitimate child with some influence but not much.”
He chuckled self-deprecatingly, “Even so, my two brothers despise me, wishing I would die outside. So, the foreign man you saw at dinner is probably there to monitor me and Gu Chen, my second brother’s right-hand man.”
Song Fan didn’t find his confession surprising. Charlie was undoubtedly resourceful, and to establish a stable position in the Brown family, he needed powerful allies; otherwise, he’d be wiped out sooner or later.
“So, Gu Chen’s poisoning is related to the Brown family?” She asked with certainty, her eyes smiling but lacking any humor.
Charlie shrugged, “Probably? But it definitely wasn’t me who poisoned him. Also, I can tell you, he got poisoned when he was very young.”
Frowning, Song Fan could only determine Gu Chen had been poisoned, but she had no idea when it had happened. The thought of him suffering from such a severe poison since childhood weighed heavily on her heart.
Charlie continued, “And 25 is a critical age. As far as I know, poisoned individuals rarely live past 25, even if they seem fine now.”
“Do you know what poison he was exposed to?” Song Fan pressed on, feeling that the truth was right in front of her.
However, Charlie shook his head, “Worldly problems are beyond someone like me. But I have nothing to do with this poison. And, I’ve heard there’s someone in the capital who survived being poisoned. Maybe that person has an antidote?”
Song Fan didn’t press for the identity of that person. She understood Charlie wouldn’t reveal it easily. Her purpose for coming today was to keep an eye on the people who were tailing them. So, she said, “If someone is monitoring you, can we continue our cooperation as usual?”
Charlie nodded seriously, “Do you think my two brothers care about a small jewelry brand? Even if it earns several billion or even over a hundred billion in revenue each year, it’s just a drop in the bucket for them. They don’t care.”
His implication was that the collaboration would continue, and the individuals monitoring them were more focused on Gu Chen.
A strange silence settled in the room. Song Fan originally intended to eliminate the people sent by the other side. Domestically, that would be manageable involving the police could lead to their arrest. However, dealing with those abroad posed a greater challenge.
It seemed Charlie sensed her concerns, and he reassured her, “Don’t worry. Those who failed in their previous attempts won’t make a move again. Now that Gu Chen is cooperating with me, it’s like having the protection of the Brown family. Those people won’t dare to act recklessly.”
Song Fan keenly seized on the key point, “So, you do know who wants to kill him?”
