Chapter 626: I’ll Bite You to Death!

Qin Fei’s call had already been connected.

And it was connected when the prison guard found Chen Xiao.

So Qin Fei also heard what the prison guard said.

The moment the guard left, Qin Fei’s voice was excited on the other end of the line:

"Chen Xiao, could the issue be related to Huang Zhao’s deceased wife?"

"Is that so? Then it depends on whether you can find her young photos! Of course, if you find her later photos, you can also send them to me, and I might try to depict what she looked like when she was young."

"Alright, no problem. But the later photos are quite old, right? Can you draw what she looked like when she was young?"

In Shencheng City, Chen Xiao hadn’t often used his Power of Sculpting and Painting on cases he investigated.

But those who knew Chen Xiao were well aware that this ability was the most astonishing among his many talents.

However, it doesn’t mean that the Power of Sculpting and Painting is Chen Xiao’s strongest skill.

It’s just that the impact of this ability can bring people direct visual shock!

After Qin Fei understood Chen Xiao’s meaning, he hung up the call.

Chen Xiao, with Duoduo, drove back to Guo Qing’s residence.

Guo Qing hadn’t come out yet and was still under investigation at the city bureau.

Of course, if Guo Qing had hired a lawyer and Chen Xiao was in a hurry, Guo Qing could probably be released by now.

But without additional trouble, neither Chen Xiao nor Guo Qing was in a hurry.

Not even Qi Li was in a rush to come out.

Everyone wanted to see what the people from the Sacred Heart Hall were up to.

Chen Xiao returned to the study and opened the tightly closed window.

Looking at the distant blue sky and white clouds, his mind wandered endlessly.

After an unknown period, Old Gui knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Chen Xiao replied, and Old Gui walked in.

"President Chen."

"How are the things over at Li Hai?"

"There’s temporarily no issue with Dragon Cauldron; everyone knows you’re safe," Old Gui replied.

Chen Xiao nodded, "And Li Hai?"

"It seems things over at Li Hai are starting to get unsettled. I met with President Qi, who told me that Li Hai is facing opposition again. Additionally, Li Hai held a high-level meeting internally, and some people have begun to make an issue out of Dragon Cauldron’s negative news."

"As expected, Qi Wei should understand that danger often coexists with opportunity. Those jumping out now, even if not a hidden threat, should be dealt with ruthlessly. This is a perfect opportunity for cleanup."

"Moreover, the news about the new land king in Shencheng City is about to be announced. Qi Wei should be prepared for it, right?"

Chen Xiao muttered, and Old Gui expressed some concern, "Can we really handle that piece of land?"

"With the Qi Family, it’s enough. A three-way win where everyone triumphs, greed leads to trouble, and I believe Grandpa Guo will agree with my decision."

Old Gui nodded, and Chen Xiao glanced at his phone, "You go ahead and get busy; I still need to personally discuss this matter with him."

Old Gui silently exited the study.

Chen Xiao took out his phone and dialed Guo Zhengchang’s number.

The latter laughed, saying:

"Here to consult my opinion?"

As expected of a seasoned veteran, his words hit right to the heart of Chen Xiao’s thoughts.

This also showed that although Guo Zhengchang was abroad, his attention was still on domestic affairs.

"What does Grandpa Guo think?"

"You’re doing the right thing; in business, there’s never a permanent enemy, nor a permanent friend. The bustling world runs for benefit, and the chaos is all driven by gain."

"Then I can proceed boldly."

"Yes, in the future, you and Guo Qing can make decisions without my approval. Dragon Cauldron is yours, and I hope you will make it even more magnificent."

Guo Zhengchang chuckled softly, and Chen Xiao no longer discussed business matters but asked seriously:

"Grandpa Guo, are you really abroad?"

There was an immediate silence on the other end of the line.

Three seconds later, Guo Zhengchang asked with a laugh, "If I’m not abroad, then where am I?"

"Last time, you sent me a message saying that you’ve established contact with the Shencheng City Bureau. Because of this, I could perfectly resolve all the hidden dangers when a female corpse crisis arose at the construction site."

"You always show up at the most dangerous times, which makes me think you might have discovered something," Chen Xiao frankly expressed his doubts.

Guo Zhengchang still asked casually, "Did your trust in me ever waver?"

"Never," Chen Xiao replied without any hesitation.

"And do you think my trust in you has wavered?"

"Absolutely not!" Chen Xiao was still extremely firm.

Guo Zhengchang laughed, "Since we both trust each other completely, you should have confidence. If I discovered something, I would definitely tell you. Similarly, if you knew something, you’d tell me, wouldn’t you?"

Chen Xiao couldn’t help but frown.

He felt that Guo Zhengchang might be hiding something.

But at this moment, Guo Zhengchang didn’t want to say anything.

In the face of helplessness, Chen Xiao could only respond, "I understand, Grandpa Guo."

"Don’t worry; I’m currently in good health. The doctor tells me that if I continue to take care of myself like this, I could potentially live for several more years."

A smile finally appeared on Chen Xiao’s face, "That’s for the best. When you come back to the country, I must go and pick you up."

"Bring Xiaoxi along."

"Okay!"

After the conversation, Chen Xiao also hung up the phone.

He had absolute trust in Guo Zhengchang.

However, Guo Zhengchang’s words had already revealed some information.

And Chen Xiao had captured the key point in Guo Zhengchang’s words.

He said that if his health continued to be maintained this way, he would remain healthy for the next few years.

This sentence, isn’t it telling Chen Xiao that his physical condition isn’t as bad as imagined?

If it’s not as bad as imagined, then that means the initial diagnosis was problematic.

Because Huang Zhao had convincingly said that even with good care, Guo Zhengchang only had half a year left to live.

Now, besides reassuring Chen Xiao, wasn’t Guo Zhengchang implying that Huang Zhao was a problem?

Additionally, although Guo Zhengchang was abroad, he maintained contact with the domestic side, providing strong support for Chen Xiao and Guo Qing during crises.

This can completely prove that Guo Zhengchang knows something!

But why didn’t Guo Zhengchang speak plainly?

During the call, Chen Xiao truly couldn’t figure it out.

But now, he understood.

Because Huang Zhao was introduced to Guo Zhengchang by him!

Just like Lin Xi’s previous hesitation, perhaps upon understanding the situation, Guo Zhengchang also hesitated internally.

These hesitations are human nature.

After all, in the end, both Lin Xi and Guo Zhengchang chose to trust firmly.

A hint of guilt appeared in Chen Xiao’s eyes.

Looking up at the blue sky and white clouds out the window again, Chen Xiao’s gaze gradually turned cold.

"Huang Zhao, I really don’t hope it’s you. But if it is you, rest assured... I will tenaciously hold you accountable!"
