350: Uncovering the truth (Part 1)

It was night.

The pungent smell from the kitchen drifted far into the living room.

Watching Xia Qingxue bring the dishes to the table one by one, Lin Xuan's thoughts were not on this.

He suddenly felt that this woman was a little terrifying.

She was clearly having someone monitor him, yet she acted so sweet and innocent.

Even he, the King of Mercenaries who had seen countless people in disguise, couldn't find a single flaw.

How much scheming did this require?

"Dinner's ready, come quickly and try the new dishes I learned!"

Xia Qingxue was completely unaware of Lin Xuan's change in mindset.

Just now, Xia Yuanfu had called and said that Gu Bing had been dealt with; this result filled Xia Qingxue with relief and joy.

Gu Bing had finally disappeared.

So now, the only person in this world who knew that Gu Bing had taken care of Lin Xuan at the bottom of the cliff for so many days was her!

This secret would accompany her as she married, had children, and enjoyed her old age.

After calling out and finding that Lin Xuan didn't respond, Xia Qingxue asked strangely, "What are you thinking about? You're so lost in thought."

"Come quickly and try the food I made, this time I added a lot of MSG, it's definitely fresh, fragrant, and delicious!"

Coming back to his senses, Lin Xuan's gaze moved away from Xia Qingxue's face.

He glanced at the table of dishes in the distance, especially seeing the pig intestines made by Xia Qingxue's hands, which made his mood even worse.

His requirements weren't actually high; before pursuing deliciousness, one should satisfy the basic condition of being edible.

But Xia Qingxue... couldn't do it.

"I'm feeling a bit unwell, I can't eat."

Turning his head to the side, Lin Xuan blurted out.

This was the first time he had refused, and after saying it, he himself felt a bit unbelievable.

But then, there was a wave of comfortable relief from releasing suppressed feelings.

"Unwell? Are you sick?"

"Maybe.

I won't eat dinner, I'll go rest first."

"Eat a little bit, okay?

I made it for a long time."

Xia Qingxue persuaded him.

"Bang~" The door closed.

Leaning against the back of the door, Lin Xuan let out a long sigh.

If he didn't think it was too much, he really wanted to say, "Don't you know how terrible the food you make is?

The taste of raw ingredients is better than what you make!"

Ultimately, Xia Qingxue having someone monitor him had touched Lin Xuan's bottom line.

He was certain that the paparazzi Xia Qingxue arranged was already a corpse!

And even when facing such a matter, Lin Xuan still didn't get angry at Xia Qingxue.

As long as he thought about his life after falling off the cliff and thought about her efforts, he could still tolerate it.

...

After the rain, the sky cleared.

Under the washed, clear sky, in the center of Mo Hai City, inside Xia Yuanfu's private villa, dazzling luxury cars parked one after another.

Xia Yuanfu, as a business magnate in Mo Hai City, had countless people wanting to attach themselves to him and cooperate with him!

And the hundreds of invitation cards Xia Yuanfu sent out attracted more than just a few hundred people.

"Chairman Xia, congratulations, your daughter has found a good match."

"President Xia, really, you didn't tell us in advance about your daughter surviving such a great disaster, making us worry all along."

"I heard that Miss Xia was kidnapped by assassins again yesterday, but thankfully her fiancé rescued her?

I have to say, Miss Xia has also suffered many misfortunes, but for this young couple to have gone through such experiences truly makes us envious."

"Yes, yes, after enduring hardships, couples become stronger and can go the distance."

Praises came from the mouths of these business tycoons and high-ranking officials.

Xia Yuanfu enjoyed it very much.

"Daddy."

Wearing a gorgeous white dress adorned with silver ornaments, Xia Qingxue was like a proud white swan, coming all the way to Xia Yuanfu's side.

As expected, she was met with another round of praises from others.

"Xuexue, why did you come out?

Where is Lin Xuan?"

Xia Yuanfu looked around, trying to find Lin Xuan.

In this kind of occasion, it was reasonable for them to appear together.

"I don't know either, I thought you knew, Daddy."

Xia Qingxue shook her head.

"This kid."

Xia Yuanfu was a little angry.

On such an important day, how could he make such a basic mistake?

"Mr. Xia, our Captain is already on the way and should arrive in a few minutes."

In the crowd, a dark-skinned, burly man with a lean and a stout person behind him said respectfully to Xia Yuanfu.

"You..."

Seeing these few people, Xia Yuanfu instantly understood.

These guys were likely Lin Xuan's comrades from his mercenary days.

Those who had been on a real battlefield had a completely different aura from those who struggled in the business world.

And the aura of these three was even more distinct.

It was said that Lin Xuan's team had four members, each with the combat power equivalent to a company, and the team they formed had once destroyed a gang of five hundred people, their strength was extremely terrifying!

He had invited all these teammates, it seemed Lin Xuan still attached great importance to this engagement banquet.

"Then let's wait for him a little longer."

Xia Yuanfu's expression improved significantly.

A few kilometers away from the villa, in the urban area.

Inside a black business van carrying several computers, Lin Xuan was examining the USB drive in his hand.

The paparazzi didn't dare to take his words lightly.

Just now, he had given him the USB drive at the agreed location.

"You're getting engaged, why the long face?

If you don't like it, just don't get engaged."

Next to him, Xiao Min, who was tinkering with the autonomous driving system, chewed gum and spoke directly.

This woman, who was fiddling with a car full of electronic products, was the team member with the lowest combat power but the greatest utility in Lin Xuan's five-person team.

And she could tell from Lin Xuan's expression along the way that his mind was not on today's engagement at all.

"You don't understand."

Lin Xuan looked at the item in his hand and shook his head at Xiao Min.

This made the woman roll her White Eyes: "If you want to see the content inside, just find any computer and plug it in.

You've been fiddling with that USB drive dozens of times already."

Hearing this, Lin Xuan fell silent.

For no reason, he felt that the content on this USB drive was not simple.

It was as if a Giant Beast was hidden beneath the rippling sea surface, waiting for him to walk into the trap!

He planned to look after the engagement banquet was over, to see how much of his privacy those paparazzi had photographed under Xia Qingxue's orders.

But in his heart, he also thought about revealing all the hidden dangers before the official engagement.

If he did that, at least he would feel at ease.

"Then let's take a look."

Lin Xuan let out a long breath, and then inserted the USB drive into the computer in front of him.

The content appeared.

It wasn't photos and some fragmented videos.

This was an entire, well-organized video, but the protagonist of the video was not him.
