Chapter 27: Chen Xiao
Chapter 27
Qin Zhao was drinking milk tea, trying to drive away the gloom in her heart through the sweetness of the milk tea.
Hearing this, she said interestedly: "Give me some clues, how can I react when you only say half of it?"
502 replied: "Host, I'm just here to assist you in completing the task, I can't tell you too much. But here's a hint you can refer to. Vietnamese."
"Tell me," Qin Zhao said.
"Vietnamese," 502 responded.
Qin Zhao recalled the plot of the original book and did have some impression.
In the original book, Ye Chenxi's sister Ye Fei was firmly in an advantageous position in the fight with him over the heir position.
But she failed because Ye Chenxi got the help of the Nan Group.
In despair, she hired Vietnamese assassins in an attempt to kill Ye Chenxi.
Of course in the end she was not successful, and was imprisoned with a life sentence.
The storyline now had changed because Qin Zhao had joined.
The person who hired the killer became Ye Chenxi instead of Ye Fei.
Without the Nan Group's backing, Ye Chenxi was no match for Ye Fei.
Could it be that he was desperate?
"Host, what do you plan to do?"
"Of course, whatever he plans to do, I'll ruin it!
Nan Yue's return to the Nan Group is related to Ye Chenxi.
If he doesn't fall completely, Nan Yue and I will never be together."
502: "Aren't you treating the female lead as a mission anymore?"
Qin Zhao was silent for a while and said, "If she still doesn't come back to me, I'll consider withdrawing to the position of a tasker."
To figure out what exactly Ye Chenxi was up to, Qin Zhao had the system show her the original book.
After reading it, Qin Zhao speculated three possibilities.
One was that he wanted to kill Ye Fei.

Two was to use the Vietnamese to threaten the Nan Family.
The third one was a bit over the top - he wanted to kill Qin Zhao herself.
Qin Zhao was the biggest obstacle to Ye Chenxi marrying Nan Yue. She was a thorn in his side that he wanted to get rid of, which made sense.
Thinking it through, Qin Zhao became even more determined to give Ye Chenxi a tragic ending.
In addition, another person in the book caught Qin Zhao's attention - Chen Xiao.
This person was a good friend of Nan Chenghui. He had conspired with Nan Chenghui to bring down a company that had a conflict of interest with Nan Chenghui.
After they succeeded, in order to monopolize the benefits, Nan Chenghui hacked Chen Xiao to death and dumped his body in the wilderness.
But Chen Xiao was lucky enough to survive without completely dying. He was saved by passing villagers.
He was left disabled, and could only stay in bed for the rest of his life.
This person's second appearance in the original book was to help the male lead.
The crafty old fox Nan Chenghui saw Ye Chenxi's ambitious wolf nature, and was absolutely unwilling to marry Nan Yue to him.
But after Ye Chenxi met Chen Xiao, Nan Chenghui's attitude took a big turn.
Ye Chenxi succeeded in marrying Nan Yue.
At the same time, it directly led to the downfall of the Nan Group.
Qin Zhao decided to go see Chen Xiao. For Ye Chenxi, he was a key figure for turning the tables.
There was no reason not to prevent the two from meeting.
She heard her colleague's voice: "Qin Zhao, President Shen wants you to go to her office."
Qin Zhao responded: "Okay."
She picked up the mirror on the desk and admired her appearance. Qin Zhao nodded satisfactorily.
One had to look prim and proper when meeting a great beauty like Shen Yixuan.
She went to room 1820 and heard her colleagues whispering, "How did the Chairman of the Nan Group get released so quickly? The bench in prison couldn't have gotten warm yet!"
"Rich people are just different. Even criminals get better treatment than us ordinary people."
"Ah, I need to be reborn into a good family in my next life. I want to be the privileged class too!"
"Keep dreaming, in dreams you can have everything!"
...
Nan Chenghui was released?!
Qin Zhao asked the system, "What's going on with Nan Chenghui?"
502 replied: "Someone took the rap for him."
It seemed that neither Ye Chenxi nor Nan Chenghui would be easy to take down.
She had to meet Chen Xiao earlier than planned.
Entering Shen Yixuan's office, she saw Shen Yixuan fiddling with a quirky mecha toy, quite absorbed in playing with it.
"President Shen, did you ask me here for something?" Qin Zhao said.
Shen Yixuan looked up, pursed her lips as if holding back laughter, and asked, "Did you and Nan Yue break up?"
Her tone was cheerful, barely able to contain her excitement!
Qin Zhao rolled her eyes. "President Shen, where did you hear such rumors? Even if you find a partner, Nan Yue and I won't break up."
Listen to this nonsense!
Shen Yixuan almost laughed from anger. She said, "So Nan Yue likes sarcasm!"
Qin Zhao retorted bluntly: "Wrong, Nan Yue likes me like this."
Shen Yixuan had originally called her over to mock her a bit, but in the end it was she herself who got hurt.
She was exasperated.
After calming herself down for a while, she finally got to the point. "Qin Zhao, Prairie Fire succeeded, and I personally also earned some money from it.
It's not cost effective to keep the money in the bank. I want to invest that money, do you have any suggestions?"
Qin Zhao didn't understand: "You can ask your friends who have investment experience. Why ask me?"
Shen Yixuan awkwardly said, "I don't have many friends. I asked the others too, so I also wanted to ask you and synthesize everyone's opinions. After all, you're my friend too."
Qin Zhao had an urge to cry. This poor child Shen Yixuan, willing to take someone she barely knew as a friend, and even so, still didn't have many friends.
What a tragedy!
Seeing Qin Zhao with a grieved look as if lamenting for the sufferings of humanity, Shen Yixuan spoke up to interrupt her compassion. "Don't get me wrong, I don't have many friends because I'm a good judge of character.
There aren't many people I find decent, and you're one of them."
Qin Zhao coughed lightly a few times to cover up her guilty conscience. If it was really as Shen Yixuan said, then she was truly playing the fool.
"I know of a very good investment project," Qin Zhao picked up the topic. "But it will take some time."
"What project is it?" Shen Yixuan asked enthusiastically.
"I can only tell you for now that this project was created by me. If you trust me, just wait a little longer."
"What if I say I don't want to wait?"
Qin Zhao profoundly said, "Very well, then I'll invest in it myself. After all, I don't mind having more money."
Shen Yixuan walked up to Qin Zhao and used her beauty to pressure Qin Zhao, condescendingly saying, "Although you're being mysterious without providing any useful information, I've still decided to trust you this once."
Her tone contained resentment. Qin Zhao couldn't help laughing, "Don't worry, beautiful Shen, I'd never deceive you. After all, you're the most beautiful person I've ever seen. I've always cherished feminine grace and beauty."
After leaving Shen Yixuan's office, Qin Zhao said to the system, "Help me locate Chen Xiao's whereabouts. I'll go see him in the next few days."
502: "Okay."
...
"Uncle, I hope you'll reconsider the marriage between Nan Yue and me," Ye Chenxi said to the person on the phone.
Nan Chenghui sneered inwardly. He had committed too many wrongs in his life. Any single one brought up would be enough to ruin him.
So when Ye Chenxi said he had grasped his weakness, he panicked.
But Ye Chenxi's trump card turned out to be just bribery. That's it?
"Ye Chenxi, what right do you have to say this? Do you think I don't know you were the one who reported me for bribing?!"
"Uncle, that was a misunderstanding. If I wanted to take you down, I would definitely do it thoroughly. How could I be so frivolous?"
He had never seen such shamelessness!
Nan Chenghui was furious. "You scoundrel, don't call me again!"
"Don't get angry, it's bad for your health, uncle. And there's no one to replace you."
"Nonsense!"
"Alright, I won't say any more unnecessary words. I'll just ask uncle, do you still remember Chen Xiao?"
The other end was silent for a few seconds before hanging up. But Ye Chenxi just smiled.
In his hand were documents containing Chen Xiao's personal information and life experiences.
Ye Chenxi muttered to himself, "Even heaven is helping me!"
...
Time quickly arrived at the day Qin Zhao had planned.
She wore gray athletic clothes and hiking boots, with a backpack full of water and food.
Chen Xiao was currently in a mountainous area. To see him, she had to hike about 5 kilometers in the mountains with no paved roads.
With everything prepared, Qin Zhao put on a duckbill cap and headed out.
After getting in an online hired car, she heard the system say, "Host, reminding you that the male lead is also on his way to the mountain village where Chen Xiao is."
