Chapter 442 The situation is tense
The stairs made a thudding sound as Chu Yang walked all the way to the door of Chu Xiong's study. He pushed the door open without even knocking and walked in.

"What did you say to Qin Luo?"

He stated his purpose directly without any ambiguity, and seemed to be extremely concerned about the content of the communication between Qin Luo and Chu Xiong, with a hint of urgency in his words.

Chu Xiong, who was dozing on the chair, opened his eyes. He saw Chu Yang's anxiety and a flash of teasing flashed in his eyes, but he just sneered and said sarcastically: "I was scared by your previous actions and came here to complain."

“Do you think I will believe it?” Chu Yang narrowed his eyes and his voice became a little cold: “He deliberately blocked the surveillance and monitoring in this room, just to complain to you?”

Obviously, Chu Yang was not surprised that Qin Luo had realized that the person who had targeted Luo Yu before was himself. After all, Qin Luo's previous response was so fast and fierce that even he was surprised.

So he immediately asked Ye Weixian to find out the situation. In the end, he concluded that Qin Luo already knew that he was the person behind the scenes, so he simply didn't let Ye Weixian cause any more trouble. Instead, he temporarily stopped and came back to fight Qin Luo.

But what he never expected was that even though he knew he was being targeted secretly, Qin Luo not only did not avoid him, but instead came directly to him.

Do you want to ask angrily or beg for mercy?
After Chu Yang received a call from Chu Sijin and learned that Qin Luo was going to have dinner at his house today, he had already thought about the various reactions that Qin Luo would have when he saw him again.

But what he didn't expect was that Qin Luo actually found Chu Xiong and blocked all surveillance and monitoring during the conversation.

This made Chu Yang, who was always used to controlling the situation and rhythm in his own hands, feel a little at a loss, because he had too many secrets, and they were too important.

Qin Luo was not a concern for him, even if he was indeed a rare talent. He had marveled at the young man's excellence more than once, and at the beginning he was willing to let him marry his sister from the bottom of his heart, but as things had developed to this point, he could no longer allow Qin Luo to move forward.

If he was determined to kill Qin Luo, it would not be a difficult task, but Qin Luo hit his soft spot.

He was afraid that his secret had been exposed to Qin Luo by Chu Xiong. Although the possibility was very small, he still had to get a definite answer, otherwise he would never feel at ease.

Therefore, after he learned that the monitoring and surveillance in Chuxiong's study had all failed, he rushed back immediately, and during that time he kept calling Chuxiong.

Even now that he got home, he ran to Chu Xiong to inquire about the situation, but Chu Xiong's answer was so light that he found it hard to believe.

"Isn't this just like a child who goes to his parents the first time he gets bullied?" Chu Xiong said firmly, rather disdainfully, "He is self-aware and knows he can't fight you, so he came to me for an explanation... Why? Is it hard to understand?"

Chu Yang frowned, his eyes still full of suspicion.

Although Chu Xiong's argument made sense and was convincing to a certain extent, he still felt that things were not that simple.

So he asked again: "How did he know there were surveillance and monitoring equipment in this room? And how did he block those devices?"

"Then I don't know, you might as well go and ask him directly," Chu Xiong said lightly.

After saying that, he didn’t wait for Chu Yang to continue speaking, and added: “But this kid is quite courageous. He actually dared to come directly to our door to ask for an explanation… I don’t think he is really scared, but he wants to see an attitude, so that he can respond according to our attitude.”

This time Chu Yang did not reply immediately. He squinted his eyes and stared at Chu Xiong for a long time, as if he wanted to judge the truthfulness of the other person's words through his eyes, movements and micro-expressions.

However, he also knew that Chu Xiong, as a man at the top of his personal field, even if he had now become a sick tiger with his teeth and claws removed, his cunningness was not something that ordinary people could fathom.

Chu Yang was not confident that he could tell whether Chu Xiong was lying or telling the truth, so after a brief silence, he suddenly changed his previous indifference and solemnity, and said with a smile: "Dad, the group held a board meeting some time ago, and my promotion to chairman and complete control of the group was rejected. Do you know about this?"

Chu Xiong raised his eyelids: "I know."

“Then you also know the reason, right?” Chu Yang kept smiling, and without waiting for Chu Xiong’s response, he said again: “Originally, this matter was set in stone, and those old stubborn people in the company had almost stopped making trouble. But because Qin Luo appeared, he showed great potential, and was considered a candidate by those old stubborn people. So they made trouble for me in meetings... Tsk, how do you say this matter should be resolved?”

Chu Xiong pondered for two seconds and said calmly: "I have just told Qin Luo to let go of everything now and accept the conditions I proposed before."

"Did he agree?"

"No."

"……snort."

Chu Yang's face suddenly became gloomy again, then he took a deep breath, adjusted his mentality, and smiled again, saying: "Forget it, it's not a big deal, it's just a matter of dignity. If he wants to be decent, then I will let him be decent. If he doesn't want to be decent, then I will help him be decent."

While speaking, he was observing Chu Xiong's reaction, but the latter did not make any statement. He just sat in the chair with a frail look, as if he turned a deaf ear to Chu Yang's words.

Chu Yang was silent for two seconds, then asked again: "You...didn't say anything you shouldn't have said, did you?"

"No," Chu Xiong said calmly.

"That's good. After all, some things are not good if too many people know about them. Let's not talk about Xiaojin and Liunian first, especially you. Don't you agree?"

"..."

Seeing Chu Xiong's silence, Chu Yang's mood seemed to improve, so he took out a small box from his pocket, poured out two small pills from it, and said with a smile: "Okay, Dad, it's time to take the medicine."

Chu Xiong glanced at him, then opened his lips and slowly closed his eyes.

……

"Sorry, I'm late."

When Chu Yang walked into the restaurant, several home-cooked dishes were already on the table. Chu Sijin and Chu Liunian sandwiched Qin Luo in the middle. The three of them were eating and drinking, talking and laughing. When they heard the sound, they looked up at the same time.

Then, Chu Liunian curled his lips, lowered his head and continued to eat in silence.

Chu Sijin was much more obedient and called out "Brother" weakly.

"Xiao Jin, eat more," Chu Yang said gently, "It's rare for Qin Luo to come and cook for you, so you have to eat enough this time, otherwise what if you don't have the chance in the future?"

Chu Yang's words conveyed some unfriendly information. Qin Luo immediately narrowed his eyes, and Chu Liunian also raised his eyebrows.

Only Chu Sijin didn't understand the meaning of his words, and said seriously: "No, even if Qin Luo doesn't come to our house, he will cook delicious food for me at his house when he is free. He also said that as long as I want to eat, he will cook it for me, and I will not miss it."

"That's great," Chu Yang replied casually, and then sat across the table from the three of them. He then raised a bottle of Moutai in his hand and said to Qin Luo with a smile, "Want a drink?"

Qin Luo thought about it and said, "Okay."

So, a nanny who was serving outside brought two wine dispensers and two wine glasses, filled the glasses with wine for both of them, and then left the restaurant.

For the first cup, the two didn't say much, they just clinked their glasses in the air and then drank up the wine in the small cups.

"This wine is not bad, Qin Luo, have you drunk it before?"

"Fortunately, I was lucky enough to drink it a few times."

"If you like, take a box away. I still have quite a few, all given by friends." "Haha, I don't usually drink much, so you should keep it for yourself, Chu."

"It's no fun to drink alone. After all, alcohol tastes better when you drink it with people you get along with."

During this meaningless conversation, the two of them drank another glass of wine.

"I heard that Luo Yu encountered some trouble recently?"

"Thank you for your concern. It's just a minor inconvenience. It has been resolved."

"That's true, but if you don't act with caution, a small problem could turn into a big one. You're new to the business world, so be careful."

"Oh, there's nothing I can do. This is how the world is. Nothing can go smoothly. I don't really have any good solution for this. I can only think of dealing with it as it comes."

"In fact, there is no good solution. If you ask me, the most important thing for a person is to know the current situation. As long as you know how to be content, many problems will naturally be solved."

"Thank you for your advice, Brother Chu. I understand the truth, but I still prefer to do things according to my own principles. After all, if you focus on one thing and neglect another, you will have too many regrets in life."

"Being distracted by one thing while being distracted by another... huh."

Chu Yang smiled and shook his head, then raised his glass and gestured to Qin Luo. Then the two of them clinked their glasses in the air and drank the third glass of wine.

At this point, Chu Liunian had already put down her chopsticks. Her eyes moved back and forth between Qin Luo and Chu Yang. Her expression became more and more solemn, and it was obvious that she had realized something.

Even Chu Sijin, who was usually a bit thick-skinned, noticed the strange atmosphere around her when faced with a table full of delicious food, so much so that she ate slower. From time to time, she would turn her head with her chopsticks hanging down to look at Qin Luo, with a puzzled expression on her face.

Suddenly, Chu Liunian said, "Chu Sijin, have you finished eating?"

“Ah? I…” Chu Sijin was about to say subconsciously that she was not full, but looking at Chu Liunian’s somewhat solemn expression, she still resisted the urge to say, “I… I’m done…”

"Then let's go," Chu Liunian stood up and said to Qin Luo before leaving: "If you have anything, come to our room and find us."

“Don’t worry, you go first, I’ll come find you later,” Qin Luo said to her with a smile.

Soon, as the sisters came and left, Qin Luo and Chu Yang were the only ones left in the spacious and elegant restaurant.

Judging from Chu Yang's words and attitude just now, Qin Luo thought that after the two sisters left, he would immediately tear off his disguise and show a tough attitude.

However, it did not.

Chu Yang still had a warm look on his face. After eating a piece of twice-cooked pork, he praised sincerely, "Your cooking skills are really good. No wonder Xiao Jin likes your cooking so much. If she can't eat it anymore, she will probably be very sad."

No matter if the other party was threatening him secretly or something else, Qin Luo did not show the slightest fear at this time, but just smiled and said: "That won't happen."

Chu Yang glanced at him and said with a smile: "No wonder so many people value you. Not to mention me when I was your age, even I am now far from being as confident as you."

After saying that, he raised his glass to Qin Luo again.

After the fourth glass of wine, Chu Yang continued, "You just said that you would lose sight of the big picture. This reminds me of what you said to the reporter at Luo Yu's press conference before... I guess I'm right, right?"

Qin Luo smiled without saying anything, using this method instead of answering.

"Alas, you," Chu Yang sighed helplessly, "The girls around you are indeed very beautiful and excellent, but as long as you are willing, you can easily get as many beautiful women as you want. It is normal for men to be lustful, but they should not be blinded by beauty."

Qin Luo did not avoid this naked topic that only men can talk about, but happily played a joke: "I'm not lustful, it's just that my heart is broken into many pieces, and each piece contains a different person."

It was not known whether Chu Yang usually went online or not, and whether he could understand Qin Luo's jokes. Anyway, he just smiled after listening to them, and that smile contained a bit of disdain and helplessness.

"I'll ask you one last question," Chu Yang picked up his wine glass, put away his smile, stared at Qin Luo, and asked in a serious tone, "Do you really want to marry Liu Nian and Xiao Jin?"

"think."

"Then the conditions proposed by my father..."

"Sorry, I don't accept it," Qin Luo interrupted with a smile: "I will bring them to me in my own way."

"..."

Chu Yang didn't say anything. He stared at Qin Luo for a few seconds, then drank the fifth glass of wine.

Although he didn't make the gesture of clinking glasses, Qin Luo still finished the wine.

When their wine glasses fell back on the table, Chu Yang wiped his mouth with a tissue, and then Qin Luo saw that he smiled again, but unlike the warm smile before, this time, Chu Yang's smile did not contain the slightest hint of laughter, and his eyes were full of coldness and hostility.

"You take care of yourself."

He said these five words lightly, then stood up and left.

At this point, Qin Luo was the only one left in the room.

"It has come to this..."

Qin Luo sighed. He was not nervous or scared, but felt more of an urgent feeling as if time was running out.

After all, this is already a fight against the final boss.

After thinking for a while, he took out his phone and asked Xiao A: "Has Chu Yang's phone been hacked?"

Little A replied immediately: "Sorry, Master, the other party's phone is highly encrypted. I was not able to completely hack into it just now. I am sorry to disappoint you."

Qin Luo thought for a moment and continued, "It's okay. Find a way to closely monitor the information of Chu Yang and the people he interacts with. If there is any situation, notify me immediately. If there are any technical difficulties in the monitoring, we will crack it as soon as possible."

"Okay, master," Xiao A's answer is always so reassuring.

After finishing all this, Qin Luo put away his phone and left the living room, heading towards Chu Sijin and Chu Liunian's bedroom again.

Although the purpose of this trip has been basically achieved, there is still another problem that has not been solved, that is, why Chu Liunian suddenly fainted before, and why he inexplicably left the room he was in.

But he didn't expect that as soon as he approached the door of their bedroom, Chu Sijin's panicked shouting came from inside...
