Chapter 25

Why was Chen Mo tracking her?

Wang Xueying couldn't help but think of some news online.

Some people coming out of prison already had twisted and perverted psyches, harboring thoughts of retaliating against society…

Although she wasn't narcissistic enough to admire herself in the mirror every day, she had no doubts about her looks.

Thinking that a recently released ex-con was tracking her, it was very likely that he coveted her beauty.

Wang Xueying shuddered, unable to hold back from taking a step back and moving a bit closer to Xu Hao…

The corner of Chen Mo's mouth twitched.

"Were you serious about that last step?"

Such a small movement, yet the damage was still so great…

Knowing that Wang Xueying was starting to suspect him, he desperately wanted to explain, but the words wouldn't come out.

Could he possibly say that he knew she was going to have dinner with Xu Hao, and because he was worried she'd be bullied by this guy, he tracked her?

What kind of relationship did they even have?

They weren't close to that extent yet…

Chen Mo's gaze fell back onto Xu Hao.

It was all this guy's fault, which had even alienated his relationship with Teacher Wang.

"Xueying, let's go. I'll drive you back to school…"

"It's a good thing you're okay. Otherwise, if I took you out to dinner and caused you to fall, I would feel so guilty."

"Not at all, it was clearly my own carelessness…"

The two arrived at the parking lot, got into the car, and sped away in a cloud of dust.

Until he saw the distant car shadow vanish, Chen Mo remained frozen in place, his fists clenched tightly.

His eyes were profound, and a murderous intent surged within him.

After three years of arduous training with his master, he was no longer that timid college student.

As for those people who bullied him in prison back then, he hadn't let a single one of them off.

"Don't let me find an opportunity, or I'll definitely kill you…"

…

Humbly begging for flowers for the new book, rating votes, and all sorts of support. Even a single comment would make this minor author immensely grateful!

…

The car arrived at the school gate.

Before Wang Xueying got out of the car, Xu Hao called out to her and shoved a gift box into her hands.

"Please take good care of Shiqing and Hua Yi. It's just a small gift, I hope you don't mind."

"This… I can't accept it. Taking care of them is what I ought to do."

Wang Xueying hurriedly refused.

"Business is business. Xueying, just keep it, it's nothing expensive…"

Xu Hao's attitude was resolute.

After accepting my things, won't you handle things earnestly?

Shortening the time it takes for my daughters to acknowledge me as their father depends entirely on you.

Wang Xueying truly didn't want to accept it.

As a teacher who was also pretty, people gave her gifts every few days.

But she rejected all of them…

Thinking of how Xu Hao had just saved her, flatly refusing him truly felt inappropriate.

Hearing Xu Hao say it wasn't valuable right on cue, she reluctantly accepted it.

"President Xu, rest assured. I will help put in a good word with Shiqing and Hua Yi."

Feeling a bit bad, Wang Xueying promised Xu Hao before leaving…

Xu Hao didn't return to the company, but instead had his secretary come pick him up.

Currently, the company had suspended many engineering projects.

The large amount of funds he held in his hands could be used to break into other industries.

Xu Hao was simply preparing to conduct industry inspections…

In the car——

Secretary Li Kun drove while reporting the information on Chen Mo that had been investigated.

Xu Hao sat in the back seat, similarly holding a file and reading it.

[Name: Chen Mo, Gender: Male, Age: 25, Home Address: Sunshine Street, South District…]

[Three years ago, he was sentenced to three years in prison for raping a female classmate. The incident occurred because Chen Mo offended Liu Fei, the young master of the Liu Family, who manufactured a premeditated revenge.]

[After entering prison, Chen Mo suffered heavy bullying, and ultimately took an old prison bully—the Old Man—as his master. The Old Man's identity was the leader of the Brothers Gang, a heavyweight figure in South City's underworld, who had entered prison because he was betrayed by his subordinate henchman.]

[After being released from prison, Chen Mo didn't go home, but instead found a job as a waiter in a bar…]

After reading this information, Xu Hao fell into deep thought.

An image appeared in his mind.

The protagonist was framed by a rich second-generation heir and sent to prison, where he met an old grandfather acting as his Golden Finger.

After three years of apprenticing and learning skills, the fierce dragon left prison to seek revenge against the rich second-generation heir…

Pursuing goddess school beauties and teachers, and inheriting his master's estate.

Waking up to wield the power of the world, getting drunk and lying on the laps of beauties.

Following web novel tropes, as expected, this was the development main storyline for that Chen Mo.

But…

That was under the condition that he didn't exist.

Since both sides were destined to be enemies, Xu Hao could not possibly let him continue to grow.

However… with his current strength, if he didn't rely on overt relationships, dealing with the protagonist was still somewhat risky.

He couldn't fight head-on; he still had to plan for the long term.

Running through Chen Mo's developmental trajectory once more, Xu Hao's eyes gradually regained focus as an idea slowly emerged.

The Liu Family and the Brothers Gang were both top-tier forces in South City.

The difference was——

One was out in the open, while the other was in the shadows…

Why shouldn't he instigate both sides to fight until they destroyed each other?

When they both suffered mutual losses, he, the fisherman, could come out and clean up both of them together.

What industry had he been looking for his company to break into these past few days?

Coincidentally, the Liu Family's new energy vehicles were quite good…

With the development of the times and the improvement of people's living standards, fuel vehicles would gradually be replaced by electric cars.

It could be said that investing in new energy vehicles would definitely not result in a loss.

Xu Hao's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

Not only could he find someone to deal with the protagonist, but he also found another direction of development for the Xu Group.

Killing two birds with one stone, serving two purposes with one action, hitting two hawks with one arrow…

…

As for how to scheme to make the Liu Family and the Brothers Gang fight each other?

There was completely no need to worry.

That Liu Fei from the Liu Family had framed the protagonist.

As long as he notified him of the news that the protagonist had been released from prison, had grown very strong, and sought revenge.

Both sides would naturally fight to the death.

Xu Hao couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

What a drag…
