Chu Jiaxue asked with a surprised look on her face: "Why am I angry? Didn't we agree not to interfere in each other's private lives? Miss Zuo is so beautiful and has such good conditions. If I meet your eyes, say
Maybe we can accomplish something beautiful."
Lin Chen stared into Chu Jiaxue's eyes and said nothing.
Chu Jiaxue could still look at Lin Chen at first, but soon she couldn't stand it anymore.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
Lin Chen said softly: "I kissed you, but you weren't angry."
Chu Jiaxue's face suddenly turned red and she lowered her gaze: "Hey, just touching your cheeks, other Westerners still have cheek-to-cheek gifts..."
It seemed that she knew that the reason given was too far-fetched and unconvincing. Chu Jiaxue bit her lips and said: "At least we have a marriage certificate. We have been together for such a long time. If something unexpected happens and we kiss on the cheek, what's the matter?"
So angry."
Lin Chen blinked: "Aren't you angry?"
Chu Jiaxue replied firmly: "I'm really not angry."
Lin Chen continued to ask: "I went out to drink and kissed another woman, and you weren't angry?"
Chu Jiaxue said in a shy tone: "I told you not to be angry. Why do you keep asking? Don't tell me that you just kissed and touched her. Even if you slept with her, it's your fault and I won't be angry.
Oops, stop talking, it’s just nonsense, I’m going back to sleep.”
Chu Jiaxue blushed and turned around to leave. She was so panicked that she even forgot to ask Zuo Yingying when she came to find Lin Chen and what they were doing later.
Lin Chen looked at Chu Jiaxue's back, a slight smile appeared on his face.
The reason why he wanted to confess was, firstly, as Chu Jiaxue said, the two were not a real couple, and secondly, Lin Chen was worried that Zuo Yingying was turning into a monster, so he told the matter in advance, which at least had an emotional foreshadowing.
After all, he still cared a little about Chu Jiaxue's feelings, and Lin Chen could see that Chu Jiaxue said he didn't care, but he still had some thoughts in his heart.
The next day, Lin Chen received a call from Liu Zhenhao. He contacted the Chu family's arch-enemy, the Wei family, who was also one of the fourth largest families in Linhai.
"Wei family?"
Lin Chen asked: "Is there a business conflict with the Chu family?"
Liu Zhenhao explained: "The conflict between the Wei family and the Chu family over their lack of business is that they are feuding. The root cause is that the Chu family killed an important figure in the Wei family, and then the two families fought against each other, causing countless casualties. After that, the feud could not be resolved.
, although decades have passed, but because the constant fighting has not stopped, the typical old hatred has not been resolved, and new hatred has been added."
"Each of the two families wants to kill the other completely, but the environment in recent decades and the two families have mutual concerns, so the fight between them has been temporarily agreed to be held on the family death duel stage every five years, and it has not been spread to the point of death.
They have no scruples, but if there is a chance to kill the other party, no matter which one they have, they will not hesitate to do it."
Lin Chen smiled, the unsolvable feud was still a blood feud, it was settled!
Such a collaborator is reliable!
Much more reliable than pure business enemies like the Xu family.
"Do you have time in the afternoon? I made an appointment with them to sit down and drink tea and have a chat."
"Okay, send me the location and I'll go directly."
Lin Chen called Han Wei: "Drive in the afternoon and go somewhere with me."
"good."
Since you want to cooperate, you have to show your strength. Otherwise, it is impossible for local wealthy families like the Eight Great Families to value you, let alone equal cooperation.
Lin Chen and Li Linyuan took a leave, and then set off for the appointment with Han Wei.
The place where we drink tea is a very elegant and quiet teahouse. The teahouse is a small courtyard with many bamboos planted inside, creating a quiet environment.
In the courtyard, Liu Zhenhao and Wei Qinggang, the head of the Wei family, were drinking tea. Behind Wei Qinggang, there was a man in his fifties sitting on the chair, and behind Liu Zhenhao, there was an old man with gray hair sitting.
When Lin Chen and Han Wei walked in, Liu Zhenhao stood up and greeted enthusiastically: "Mr. Lin, come here, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Wei Qinggang Wei."
Wei Qinggang sat on the chair and did not get up. He just cast his eyes lightly on Lin Chen: "I heard that you are a disciple of Kuangren Xue?"
Wei Qinggang's tone was indifferent, full of the aloofness and arrogance unique to wealthy families.
When Lin Chen saw this, he didn't show any politeness. He pulled out a chair and sat down: "Yes, Mr. Wei, do you have any doubts?"
Wei Qinggang frowned and said, "Can you speak on behalf of your master?"
Lin Chen's eyes changed slightly, he leaned back, leaned on the back of the chair, and smiled slightly: "I don't know how Old Liu told you this, but I think you may have made a mistake."
Wei Qinggang stared at Lin Chen indifferently: "What?"
Lin Chen smiled and said: "I want to deal with the Chu family. This matter has nothing to do with my master, and he will not appear in this matter."
Wei Qinggang frowned and sneered: "Kuainman Xue is indeed famous, but to the Wei family, he is just a powerful master, nothing more, you name him as your master."
You just want the Wei family to cooperate with you, I’m afraid you’re thinking too much..."
