Chapter 692 Undercurrents
Hearing this, Chen Xuan trembled all over, shaking his head like a rattle.
He had been tricked yesterday, so how could he be willing to go?
As for Jiang Biyun looking at Chen Xuan with new eyes and praising him again, she was about to present Chen Xuan with a banner proclaiming him the best son-in-law in the world.
She was now increasingly believing in Su Qian's choice; Su Qian had truly chosen a peerless son-in-law for the Su family.
Coming outside, a voice suddenly rang out, "Mr. Chen..."
Chen Xuan turned his head and saw Scorpion scurrying over, looking as if he had something to say but hesitated.
"Yunxi, Aunt Jiang, please go to the car first. I'll find you later," Chen Xuan said, glancing at Su Yunxi and Jiang Biyun.
Su Yunxi and Jiang Biyun turned and left.
"Mr. Chen, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
Scorpion looked at Chen Xuan and said respectfully.
Scorpion had initially seen Chen Xuan and was so scared that he lost his wits, leaving in a hurry with his men. But halfway, he suddenly remembered that if Chen Xuan retaliated after they left like this, what would happen? So he waited at the entrance.
"What do you want me for?" Chen Xuan asked Scorpion indifferently.
"I offended you just now. I apologize here!"
Scorpion was ruthless enough to immediately kneel and kowtow to Chen Xuan.
"Alright, get up and get lost," Chen Xuan waved his hand, saying irritably.
Scorpion hurriedly said, "Mr. Chen, is there anything you need me to handle? Just say it, don't be polite with me!"
Chen Xuan hesitated for a moment, a sharp gleam flashing in his eyes, and said, "I happen to have something for you to do!"
"What is it?"
Scorpion's heart was overjoyed. As long as Chen Xuan agreed to help him, he could connect with Chen Xuan.
"Help me investigate the assets that the Su family relatives have taken from the Su family!"
Even now, Chen Xuan still felt some unwillingness.
"Okay, Mr. Chen, I'll do it for you now." Scorpion happily stood up. After taking two steps, he stopped and asked, "What happens after the investigation is clear?"
"Take it all back!"
"Yes!"
Then, Chen Xuan walked to where the car was parked and got inside.
"What's wrong with that Scorpion?" Su Yunxi asked Chen Xuan, looking worried.
She had heard of Scorpion's reputation; he was a force second only to the two major chambers of commerce in the jianghu.
"Nothing, just some small matters."
Then, Chen Xuan drove the car, taking Su Yunxi and Jiang Biyun back to the Su family.
Back at the Gu family, Gu Chengye made the first call to the capital, ostensibly to greet Su Ning, but in reality, to inquire again about when Su Ning would come to the provincial capital. The call was finally connected, and the good news was that Su Ning was about to come out of seclusion.
On the phone, Gu Chengye received instructions from Su Ning, who told Gu Chengye to behave himself recently and wait for him to handle the matter.
"Young Master Su Ning, don't worry."
Gu Chengye bowed and hung up the phone. After hanging up, Gu Chengye also straightened his back, shaking off his previous gloom.
"Uncle, how is it?" Gu Junjie, seeing Gu Chengye's joyful expression, asked impatiently.
After Gu Erye was arrested, Gu Junjie pinned all his hopes on Gu Chengye.
Gu Chengye smiled and said, "Behave yourself for a while longer, and within ten days to half a month, Young Master Su Ning will personally come to the capital."
"That's great!"
Gu Junjie jumped up with a whoosh, his face full of joy.
This was undoubtedly the best news for him.
"Su family! Chen Xuan! They will all die!" Gu Junjie slapped his thigh, incredibly excited.
"Junjie, you must not act rashly during this period. The Su family is powerful now. We must wait for Young Master Su Ning to come."
Gu Jinjin flashed a hint of disdain: "Uncle, I have a good method in my hand now that can elevate the Gu family to the next level. I wonder if you see..."
Gu Chengye shook his head and firmly said, "Gu Junjie, I warn you not to act rashly. If you anger the Su family and Young Master Su Ning cannot get here in time, our Gu family will be finished!"
At the same time, Su Ning, who was far away in the capital, was furious. He hadn't expected that despite all the schemes he had devised against the Su family, they hadn't caused significant losses.
Damn it!
In the secret room, Su Ning gnashed his teeth so hard that they were about to shatter.
If it weren't for the critical moment of his breakthrough, he would have risked everything to go to Jiangnan Province right now.
But that was an Inner Force Grandmaster! A height many people could never reach in a lifetime!
Su Ning had also longed to become an Inner Force Grandmaster. He took a breath and endured.
However, Su Ning still couldn't swallow his anger, so he took out his phone and made two more calls.
The first call was to his fiancée, Shi Menglu.
"Ningning, you finally remembered me. I'm so bored. You don't say you'll come to Jiangnan Province to find me... How long do you want me to stay in a place like this..." Shi Menglu said coquettishly, lying on the bed.
At this moment, Shi Menglu was lying on a Simmons mattress, but the air was filled with a rotten smell. The floor was littered with trash, and Shi Menglu herself had oily hair that could be used to extract peanut oil. She hadn't washed her face or brushed her teeth, looking like a beggar.
Not long ago, Shi Menglu was secretly rescued by the Gu family. The Gu family arranged for her to stay here to avoid alarming the enemy and not allow Shi Menglu to leave the house. Shi Menglu could only stay there, and after a few days, she was completely worn out.
Hearing Shi Menglu's voice, a hint of disgust flashed across Su Ning's face, but it quickly disappeared, replaced by malice.
Su Ning already knew that Shi Menglu had been sent to the club. Shi Menglu was already tainted, and he had long since lost interest in her.
Although the Shi family was far inferior to the Su family, it could serve as a good card in Su Ning's hand. For this reason, he had not given up on the Shi family.
"You stay in Jiangnan Province for a few days first. I'll come to Jiangnan Province to find you in a while."
"Don't make me wait too long..." Shi Menglu said charmingly.
"Menglu, I have something for you to do, which I think you'll enjoy very much."
"What is it?"
"Take revenge on the Su family in the provincial capital!"
Hearing the name of the Su family, endless hatred burst forth in Shi Menglu's eyes.
She would never forget the Su family in the provincial capital!
Especially Chen Xuan, the live-in son-in-law of the Su family. If it weren't for Chen Xuan, she wouldn't have ended up like this!
Although Su Ning didn't say anything, she knew that Su Ning despised her; otherwise, Su Ning would have come to find her long ago.
"Ningning, are you avenging me? You're too good to me!"
Shi Menglu's expression was ferocious, but she suppressed her impulse and said coquettishly.
In front of Su Ning, she knew how to restrain herself.
"Yes, I want to avenge you. Pack up and go to the Li family. I will tell you how to do it."
"Really? I can go out now? That's great!"
Shi Menglu said impatiently, "I'll pack up and go to the Li family now."
The other call was to the Li family, one of the four major families in Jiangnan Province!
The Li family in Jiangnan Province was one of the four major families, but almost no one knew that the Li family in Jiangnan Province was actually a prominent family personally supported by Su Ning. Its main purpose was to directly annex the Su family after the Su family had grown strong.
However, at present, the Su family's development had far exceeded Su Ning's expectations, and he had to activate this deeply hidden chess piece in advance.
