"You're Third Master, right? Sit down. I hope Third Master won't blame me for inviting you over for a chat.”
Li Xiao stood up and said with a smile.
Tang Chen sat next to Li Xiao, fully displaying the demeanor of a lackey. Li Xiao didn't say anything, so he sat there without moving.
"It's fine, it's fine."
Hong San heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Li Xiao's good attitude and sat down with a smile.
"I wonder why Young Master Li has called me over?"
Hong San asked.
"It's not a big deal. I just wanted to ask you over for a chat.”
Li Xiao said casually.
“？？？”
Why did she ask him to come over for a chat?
Hong San almost had a black face full of question marks.
Am I that free?
"By the way, Third Master heard that you have high hopes for a junior called Chen Hao and intend to let Chen Hao take over your position?”Li Xiao asked casually.
"Chen Hao, this little fellow, is very much to my liking, so I plan to properly nurture him.”
Hong San chuckled as he replied, not paying too much attention to it.
"Indeed, I've also heard that Chen Hao's character is quite good.”Li Xiao praised. As for him calling Chen Hao a junior, neither Hong San nor Tang Chen felt it was out of place. Li Xiao's current status was the Li family's patriarch. Chen Hao was indeed just a junior in front of him, even if Chen Hao was older than Li Xiao.
"Third Master, I heard that Chen Hao went fishing by the river today? The river has been rising recently. Third Master, you have to be careful. You have to remind Chen Hao not to accidentally fall into the river and drown.”
Li Xiao seemed to be a little worried, and a concerned expression appeared on his face.
Hearing Li Xiao's words, Hong San's expression changed, and his heart could not help but beat faster. He had an ominous premonition.
What did that mean?
Was it really just concern?
Buzz!
Suddenly, the phone in Hong San's pocket vibrated. Hong San apologized and took out his phone. Seeing that it was a call from his trusted aide, the ominous feeling in Hong San's heart grew stronger and stronger. He nervously answered the call.
"What is it?"
"Third Master, something happened to Brother Hao. We can't contact the people who were with Brother Hao. We found something wrong and went to the place where Brother Hao was fishing to check. We found Brother Hao's body by the river. He seemed to have drowned. Third Master, what should we do now? Should we call the police?”
A panicked and nervous voice came from the phone.
"Report your head. We're gangsters, and you're telling me to call the police? Go and settle the funeral matters first."
Hong San couldn't help but curse. The self-cultivation he had gained over the past ten years was broken. After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Li Xiao saw Uncle Fu appear at the door of the living room and nodded at him. Then, he looked at Hong San with a smile.
"Li Xiao, what do you mean?”
Hong San stood up and glared at Li Xiao, his eyes bloodshot.
He treated Chen Hao as his godson. Otherwise, he wouldn't have wanted Chen Hao to take over his job. In the end, Chen Hao drowned not long after Li Xiao finished speaking. Coincidence? Who would believe that? If it wasn't Li Xiao who did it, he wouldn't believe it even if he was beaten to death.
"Hong San, how dare you! Who gave you the guts to talk to Young Master Li like that? Are you courting death?”Without waiting for Li Xiao to speak, Tang Chen suddenly stood up and berated.
Seeing the faint figures of bodyguards gathering at the door, Hong San calmed down when he realized that this was not his territory. However, from his heaving chest, it was not difficult to see that Hong San still could not calm down. However, if it were anyone else, they would not be able to calm down.
Your own son was killed, and the real murderer is right in front of you. How can you remain calm?
"Li Xiao, what do you want?"
Hong San sat down again, and the way he addressed Li Xiao changed from respectful to direct.
Since they had already shed all pretense of cordiality, there was no need for them to put on any pretentious facade.
"Third Master, what do you mean? Why don't I understand?"
Li Xiao gestured for Tang Chen to sit down. He then looked at Hong San, who was still maintaining a smile. His eyes seemed to be a little confused as to what Hong San meant.
Who was Hong San?
Even though times had changed, Hong San had committed many heinous acts in the past.
Since he wanted to make a move on Hong San, could it be that he had to communicate with Hong San properly?
Don't joke around.
The most direct way to communicate with people in the gray area was to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys. Li Xiao did not have any psychological burden regarding this kind of thing. Otherwise, there was no need to mention arm-wrestling with the main character.
Of course, even if he did it, he couldn't admit it. He, Li Xiao, was a decent person. How could he do something illegal?
“......”
Looking at the smile on Li Xiao's face, Hong San felt a chill in his heart.
If it wasn't for Chen Hao's matter, he might have been deceived by Li Xiao's disguise. Now, how could he still believe Li Xiao's emotions? He wasn't a fool.
Laughing and killing his people?
"How scheming."
Hong San sighed in his heart and felt a trace of respect for Li Xiao.
As the saying goes, a dog that bites does not bark. Although this must was not appropriate, it could still be described. Li Xiao had the Li family backing him up to begin with. Now that he had such shrewdness, how could Hong San not be afraid?
After all, who knew that Li Xiao would not kill him with a smile?
Who could withstand this!
