After starting from scratch, he was targeted by big bosses

Chapter 277 Xie Cheng mentioned the death of his parents
"Where are we going?"

Seeing the carriage heading towards the seaside pier, Tang Xi was a little puzzled.

Xie Cheng explained in a low voice: "Go to Lianhua Town, it's closer by sea."

"I see."

She finally understood why Tang Xiaohe said it was windy at sea and asked them to wear more clothes.

When they arrived at the pier, there was already a huge ship parked beside the pier, and Kong Yue and Lin Laosan directly drove the carriage onto the ship.

The captain was a middle-aged man, and under the light, his face was somewhat similar to that of village head Cheng.

Just as Tang Xi and Xie Cheng got off the carriage, the captain stepped forward and said respectfully, "Please, please."

Xie Cheng nodded slightly, signaling the captain to lead the way ahead.

"What's the relationship between the captain and the village chief?" Tang Xi asked in a low voice, poking Xie Cheng's waist with his elbow.

Xie Cheng lowered his head and whispered in her ear: "Captain Cheng is the younger brother of the village chief."

Cheng Ming seemed to have heard the conversation between the two, and he turned his head and smiled at them, "The tea has been prepared on the second floor, you guys go up to rest for a while, we will look after the things on the carriage for you."

Xie Cheng nodded slightly. After going up to the second floor, Tang Xi didn't drink tea, but went directly to the railing outside to watch, but saw that the sail hadn't been raised yet, as if he was still waiting for someone.

The sea breeze was really strong at night, and the waves hit the boulders, making a thunderous sound. Looking into the deep sea, you can still see a little bit of light, which should be fishing boats going fishing late at night.

"What are you thinking about?"

A gentle and deep voice came from next to his ear, Tang Xi turned his head and smiled at the visitor, "I was thinking, life is really not easy."

Xie Cheng smiled faintly, walked to her side, looked at the distance of the sea and said softly: "My parents were buried at sea."

Tang Xi raised his eyes suddenly, but saw him under the light, with a bit of indifference and melancholy.

"Back then, my parents had just returned from discussing business elsewhere, and they also traveled by sea. In the middle of the night, they encountered a group of pirates. Those people only killed people and didn't steal money."

He laughed mockingly, "Although I was young at the time, I never heard of any pirate who didn't rob money but only kill people."

Tang Xi didn't speak, just took his arm, leaned on it, and listened silently.

"But it doesn't matter." He said with a faint smile, "The mastermind has been killed by me."

"The mastermind...was the former city lord of Night City?" she asked in a low voice.

"Yes." He smiled and said, "I thought he was really nice at the time, even though my parents were gone, my sister, my grandparents, Chen Luo, him and Aunt Yan, just didn't expect... "

He closed his eyes, tried his best to suppress his emotions and said, "He is actually a beast."

"City Lord Chen doesn't know about this?" Tang Xi asked again.

"I promised Aunt Yan that I would not let him know the truth and let him live a good life." Xie Cheng smiled wryly: "I sometimes envy him, at least he doesn't know that the father he admires is not only his father The friend's enemy, and the chief culprit who killed his mother."

"What?" Tang Xi was stunned, "City Lord Chen's mother was also killed by his father?"

"Because Aunt Yan discovered his secret, he gave Aunt Yan a chronic poison." Xie Cheng sneered, "I was still thinking about how he could do it to his brothers who are as close as brothers. But after thinking about it, he even dared to harm the married couple, so there is nothing he can't do."

Fortunately, he regarded that person as one of the most respected people in his life at that time, but he didn't want to, and mistakenly regarded his enemy as a benefactor, which is really ridiculous.

He didn't say the reason, Tang Xi didn't dare to ask more because he was afraid that he would be sad, so he could only stand beside him silently and accompany him silently.
