Chapter 649: What Is Love?

"Unmarried!"

Looking at the content in Liu Chuan’s information column, Lin Xi’s expression showed delight.

"This Master Liu has quite a family background, and his son Liu Chuan is not young anymore. At this age, still unmarried, apart from special issues like sexual orientation, I believe there must be something else hidden here."

Chen Xiao expressed his thoughts.

Lin Xi quickly understood his meaning:

"You’re saying the reason Liu Chuan is still unmarried is likely related to Jiang Cai!"

"Or to be direct, this man named Liu Chuan is a lovesick fool, he’s been waiting for Jiang Cai all along!"

Lin Xi analyzed, and Chen Xiao nodded frequently.

However, Chen Xiao soon asked, "Do you know why I said Liu Chuan is the most overlooked yet most special person?"

"Because his father is Liu Da, and Liu Da’s role in the entire case is significant. He confidently told me about Zhu Nianying’s affair with President Zhuang, and it was even him who took Zhu Nianying for the abortion!"

"Moreover, the two hundred thousand transferred to Zhu Nianbing was also gradually moved from Liu Chuan’s account."

"So, if these people say they have nothing to do with Zhu Nianying’s disappearance, that’s simply unreasonable."

Lin Xi thought for a moment and quickly guessed Chen Xiao’s real intention regarding Liu Chuan:

"You want to use Liu Chuan to break Huang Zhao?"

"Exactly! If everything Master Liu said is true, then he himself doesn’t have much suspicion. But Master Liu has an underhanded relationship with Xiao He, and after my contact with Xiao He, I can clearly feel she has issues!"

"So, in my view, Huang Zhao and Master Liu, apart from some more hidden relationships, are at least collaborators, and their collaboration’s key point is likely Xiao He!"

"Now their collaboration is rock solid, Liu Chuan is the sharp blade to break it!"

"But you don’t know where Jiang Cai is!" Lin Xi was somewhat helpless.

Chen Xiao laughed: "Where Jiang Cai is important, but like Zhu Nianying, she can only be put aside temporarily at this moment. Now, Jiang Cai’s news is most important, even if it’s tagged as unknown, it would certainly be lethal to Liu Chuan."

"But how can we get Liu Chuan to cooperate with us?"

"Just go directly and find him!"

"But Old Gui..."

"What is love in this world..." Chen Xiao sighed, then called Pan Huiping.

"Hello, Captain Pan, I want to meet Liu Chuan. But I need your help to contact him, and I don’t want anyone else to know about my meeting with him."

Pan Huiping: "Alright, I’ll arrange the venue for you."

With just this sentence, Pan Huiping hung up the phone.

Chen Xiao then sent a message to Hong Mei: "Sister Mei, you can set out for Hai City now."

After sending the message, Chen Xiao closed the computer, put down his phone, and waited quietly.

In less than twenty minutes, Pan Huiping had already set up the meeting with Liu Chuan and informed them of the location.

Chen Xiao thanked him and took Lin Xi, calling Old Gui along as they headed out.

However, Old Gui seemed worried for some reason or another; his eyes were filled with apprehension.

Occasionally glancing at the rear-view mirror, he couldn’t help but ask:

"President Chen, are we going to find that Xiaoji brother you mentioned?"

"No." Chen Xiao replied, and Old Gui continued to ask, "Then is it?"

Chen Xiao glanced at him and laughed, "Old Gui, is there something bothering you? You seem a bit absent-minded today, otherwise you wouldn’t keep asking me like this?"

Previously, the main reason Old Gui could become the perfect driver and assistant in Chen Xiao’s mind was that he asked when necessary and never overstepped when not.

Moreover, with just a glance from Chen Xiao, Old Gui would understand Chen Xiao’s intent with excellent execution capability.

Today, he indeed seemed a bit less rational.

Old Gui apologized to Chen Xiao and continued driving.

However, Chen Xiao suddenly spoke:

"Today we’re going to meet a lovesick fool."

"Huh?"

"That guy has a solid family background and looks decent. He dated a girlfriend early on, and they got along very well."

"But just as they were about to step into the temple of marriage, something happened to the girl, and she’s been missing ever since; he hasn’t started a new relationship." Chen Xiao explained the reason, and Old Gui, slightly surprised, said:

"That really is a lovesick fool."

Chen Xiao chuckled, "Old Gui, didn’t you also date a girlfriend before? You haven’t found anyone new all these years, you’re also a lovesick fool."

"Ha, President Chen, don’t tease me. I’ve told you before, since meeting Ah Qin, I’ve lost interest and trust in women. But seeing President Chen and your wife, I’ve started to believe in love again."

Old Gui spoke, Lin Xi returned with a smile.

Chen Xiao, as if intrigued by gossip, said: "Actually, I think no one is perfect, but if you recognize mistakes and correct them, it’s never too late. The lady named Ah Qin you mentioned, she shouldn’t be gambling anymore, right?"

"Who knows, ever since that last meeting, we’ve never been in contact again."

"What a pity, there are millions of men and women in this world, yet so few truly in love. If you and Ms. Ah Qin truly loved each other, it’s all the more unfortunate."

Old Gui tightened his grip on the steering wheel, but his face didn’t change as he smiled:

"President Chen, don’t say that anymore, otherwise I’ll be both angry and upset."

"Alright, I won’t tease you. I just feel like if one can find a true companion, then life is complete."

Old Gui smiled without saying a word.

Chen Xiao also didn’t pay much attention to his expression.

They traveled in silence, Chen Xiao and Lin Xi understanding each other’s thoughts.

Soon, Chen Xiao arrived at the teahouse Pan Huiping mentioned.

Led by a service staff, they went straight to a private room outside.

The attendant knocked on the door, and Chen Xiao heard Liu Chuan’s voice from inside.

"Come in."

The attendant opened the door and respectfully gestured them in, as Chen Xiao entered with Lin Xi and Old Gui.

However, to Chen Xiao’s surprise, when Old Gui stepped into the private room and saw Liu Chuan, his steps suddenly halted.

Chen Xiao keenly noticed and turned to ask: "Old Gui, what’s wrong?"

"President Chen, you and your wife need to talk to this gentleman; how about I wait outside?"

"There’s no need, you and I have a brotherly relationship, no need to avoid anything." Chen Xiao said, then introduced himself:

"Hello Mr. Liu, Captain Pan should have told you about my identity, right? I am Chen Xiao, an old acquaintance of your father Liu Da, Master Liu."

"Xiaoxi, Old Gui, this is Mr. Liu Chuan, the son of Liu Chuan who has been driving for President Zhuang for twenty years!"
