My Unexpected CEO Wife

Chapter 784 784: Gains

Xu Chengliang trembled all over, not daring to make the slightest rebuttal.

"I'll speak, I'll speak, just don't hurt me."

Xu Chengliang spoke with a full face of bitter sorrow: "Chen Tiangong and his wife mastered the latest synthetic technology, possessing extremely wide application value."

"Whether in the military or commercial sectors, it can be widely applied, with considerable value."

"Initially, I wanted to develop it jointly with him, and we were originally negotiating quite well, but then he suddenly reneged, refusing to cooperate with me at all, which made me very furious."

Hmph!

Chen Xuan sneered coldly, "The reason why he didn't want to cooperate with you is that you secretly colluded with the Dongyang people."

"Once you mastered the technology, it wouldn't take long before it ended up in the hands of the Dongyang people, thus harming our fellow countrymen!"

Xu Chengliang gave an embarrassed, bitter smile, not daring to speak, nor able to refute.

Chen Xuan continued to ask, "About those black-clad people, you only know they came from the provincial capital but not who sent them?"

Xu Chengliang immediately shook his head, "I truly don't know, I absolutely dare not hide anything."

Chen Xuan furrowed his brows slightly, then asked, "Have you heard of someone called Lady Lan?"

"Lady Lan?" Xu Chengliang was momentarily stunned, "Never heard of her! I don't know her, never had any contact, never even heard of such a person."

Chen Xuan noted Xu Chengliang's expression, knowing he wasn't lying or deliberately hiding the identity of the other party.

He truly did not know who Lady Lan was.

Regarding the mysterious 'Lady Lan', he initially learned about her from Ye Qingxian.

Not knowing where Ye Qingxian got the information from, he needed to find Ye Qingxian for the real facts.

If, after all the investigations, it turned out to be a mistake, and there was no such person at all, it would be a big joke and a waste of time.

But right now, Ye Qingxian was also missing, making it impractical to find her.

While Chen Xuan was contemplating silently, Xu Chengliang warily moved his body back, "I've explained everything I should, can you let me go now?"

Chen Xuan gave a chilly smile, "You still want me to let you go? Do you think it's possible?"

Xu Chengliang's face instantly turned terror-stricken, "I belong to the Xu family. If you dare harm me, it would be offending the Xu family."

"I hope you won't be stubborn and escalate the matter, which would have no benefit for you!"

Hehehe...

Chen Xuan let out a cold laugh, "If I dared to do this, I wouldn't fear the Xu family's revenge."

"Besides, you will die silently tonight, and the Xu family won't know it's me who did it."

Xu Chengliang was terrified, realizing he had no chances of survival tonight.

He tried to struggle for a bit, "Who are you really, and why do you insist on pursuing this matter and attacking me? There should be no grudges between us, right?"

Chen Xuan sneered, "The questions have been answered, now let me make your death clear!"

"Chen Tiangong is my father! The fact that you forced and threatened him back then, and even wanted to secretly harm him, leaves you with no chance of survival tonight."

What?

Xu Chengliang widened his eyes, never expecting that the man in front of him was actually Chen Tiangong's son.

He dared not be impudent anymore, and directly knelt and kowtowed, "Mr. Chen, back then I was momentarily confused and did something foolish."

"But in the end, your parents didn't die by my hand, I didn't get the chance to harm them. The real murderers were those suddenly appearing black-clad assailants!"

"I can redeem myself by assisting you in tracing those black-clad assailants, spare me this once, how about it?"

Chen Xuan shook his head with a cold smile, "Unfortunately, your enlightenment came a bit too late."

"Some things, once done, leave no room for regret! There's only one path — to your death!"

"Go to hell and atone for my parents!"

Bam!

With a single blow, Xu Chengliang was killed, his eyes wide open, dying with regrets.

"Mo Ying, clean this place up, leave no trace whatsoever," Chen Xuan instructed, turning to leave.

Mo Ying responded and immediately started the operation, cleaning everything in the villa's living room before the police arrived, leaving no traces.

Xu Chengliang's body was also taken away, disappearing without a trace, his whereabouts unknown…

...

Chen Xuan returned to the villa where he lived. Lin Wanxi and Yang Leshan had not slept, waiting for his return.

"How did it go tonight? No accidents, right?" Lin Wanxi asked anxiously.

Chen Xuan nodded slightly, "It's all taken care of, ensuring no traces will alarm the Xu family."

"That's good." Lin Wanxi breathed a slight sigh of relief, "Did you get any useful leads from Xu Chengliang?"

Chen Xuan smacked his lips, "I guess there's some gain. At least I learned about my father's research results from back then."

"Let's analyze if we can extract relevant information to provide a direction for the investigation..."
