Chapter 336

Li Xiao felt that something was more and more amiss.

It seemed as if these people had planned to kidnap him to ask these questions from the very beginning.

It seemed… they knew he was a transmigrator?

Not necessarily a transmigrator.

Or maybe a reincarnator?

But how was that possible?

From beginning to end, he hadn't revealed any information about being a transmigrator.

Before he could figure it out,

another knife was pressed against his finger.

A cold voice rang in his ear.

"Mr. Lin, if you don't talk, we'll start with your pinky and cut them off finger by finger."

"Until all ten fingers are cut off, then your hands and feet, and then your fifth limb…"

Hearing these methods of torture,

Li Xiao's body couldn't stop trembling.

Meanwhile—

At the Xu Family Villa!

The family was sitting warmly on the sofa watching television.

A "ding" notification sounded from a phone.

Xu Hao calmly picked up his phone.

It was the interrogation information about the protagonist, Li Xiao, sent by Bai Ling.

That's right, Li Xiao being captured was his arrangement.

He originally thought he was just an ordinary transmigrator, a minor villain.

He didn't expect that upon investigation…

it actually involved business elements.

Li Xiao was a villain protagonist.

While striking at the protagonist Zheng Feifan, he also had to develop his business.

No matter what, he wouldn't be weaker than the prominent Chu family, right?

For an urban protagonist, if you don't rake in a hundred billion, you'd be too embarrassed to call yourself a protagonist.

And so—

Xu Hao planned to squeeze this protagonist dry of his remaining value before destroying him, as he could barely farm any more Emotion Points and had been almost completely harvested.

Squeezing out his final bit of worth.

Glancing at the stock market information revealed by Li Xiao,

Xu Hao decided to go to the company tomorrow and have a specialist evaluate it.

Then, Xu Hao looked at another message.

It was about what had happened to the Chu family this afternoon.

They had been confronted at their doorstep by the protagonist, Zheng Feifan.

Xu Hao's eyes flickered.

"Tsk… Wanting to destroy the Chu family? Then let me lend you a hand…"

Unlike Zheng Feifan,

who only went to investigate the Chu family after knowing they were targeting him,

Xu Hao, upon learning that the Chu family owned a new energy electronics company,

had already begun taking steps to claim it as his own.

Therefore, the information he had gathered was far more extensive than what Zheng Feifan had.

This evidence was also enough to send Chu Xiong to prison to spin sewing machines.

As for the playboy young master, Chu Xiaotian,

although he hadn't done anything bad enough to go to jail,

he was still a useless waste.

Wouldn't he still be completely at his mercy?

He just needed to find an opportunity to get rid of him…

Xu Hao had already obtained the complete evidence to bring down Chu Xiong two days ago.

He was just waiting for an opportunity.

The reason he hadn't made a move yet

was that he didn't want anyone to associate it with him.

After all, when the time came, his sister-in-law Yao Xinrui would inherit the Chu family's assets.

He would definitely have frequent interactions with this sister-in-law,

and he wanted to avoid raising suspicions from any observant onlookers.

No matter what, his persona as an elegant, easygoing, and refined hypocrite could not crumble…

And now—

Zheng Feifan and the Chu family were in complete opposition.

Xu Hao knew his chance had come.

Since they were in a hostile relationship,

and Zheng Feifan was targeting the Chu family and had even threatened them with evidence,

he could help draw away attention.

This meant he could safely make his move.

He immediately sent two words to Bai Ling.

—"Take action."

Very quickly!!!!!

One trending news story after another swept across the entire internet.

[The President of the Tens-of-Billions-Valued Chu Group Actually Has So Many Under-the-Table Operations…]

[Billionaire Chu Xiong Suspected of Illegal Securities Trading…]

[Chu Group's Tax Evasion Situation…]

Chu Xiong had just returned from visiting his son at the Hospital.

Zheng Feifan was truly enraged this time.

He beat him far more severely than the last time.

He wouldn't be able to leave the Hospital for at least ten days to half a month.

Chu Xiong had a gloomy expression.

Zheng Feifan wanted to kill his son,

and had even threatened him with some evidence about the company.

If he didn't eliminate him, he would not be at peace.

Just as he was trying to find someone to deal with Zheng Feifan,

a phone ringtone rang out.

Ring, ring, ring… Ring, ring, ring… Ring, ring, ring…

Chu Xiong glanced at it; it was a call from the company secretary.

He tapped to answer.

"President Chu, this is bad…"

"What's with the panic? Speak slowly."

Chu Xiong frowned and scolded.

However, how could the secretary slow down? He was about to die of anxiety.

"President Chu, some of our company's information has been leaked. Please look at the hot searches quickly."

Chu Xiong's heart skipped a beat.
