Chapter 555: Chapter 555 We Saw Brother Guo

"Sold to someone else? When did this happen?" Ding Lijuan asked.

"Just a couple of days ago."

Chen Xuan and Han Jingting looked at each other.

The investment results had only come out yesterday, yet Ding Liang had sold the old house a few days before that—clearly, he knew about the investment outcome in advance and had liquidated his assets to flee!

"I knew it, that Ding Liang is no good! He had a backup plan ready for himself all along!"

Han Bowwen also came to the realization and cursed furiously.

"Call the police! I am going to call them right now and have this ungrateful wretch arrested!"

Han Bowwen said as he was about to make the emergency call.

But before he could dial, Ding Lijuan snatched the phone from his hands.

"We haven’t even figured out what’s going on yet, why call the police? Maybe Xiao Liang sold the house in advance because he knew he was about to make a big profit!"

"Let me tell you, if anyone dares to harm our Xiao Liang, I won’t let them off the hook!"

Ding Lijuan was frantic and indignant.

Han Bowwen was speechless, "I’m not saying we want to harm him, but with so much money scammed, we have to call the police, don’t we?"

"Scammed? Who says we were scammed. You wanted to do business so badly, don’t you understand that investment carries risks and one must enter cautiously?"

"We just suffered an investment failure, it’s no one else’s fault!"

Ding Lijuan, afraid that the situation would implicate Ding Liang, refused to call the police.

Han Jingting was also very helpless.

Unwilling to call the police, wouldn’t that mean they could never recover the house or the money?

Han Jingting turned to Chen Xuan, "Chen Xuan, what should we do now?"

Chen Xuan thought for a moment, looking at Ding Lijuan, "Mom, you said Ding Liang introduced you to someone named Brother Guo. Do you know this person’s full name and where he lives?"

Ding Lijuan replied with impatience, "We don’t know, we’ve only met him once and only know his surname is Guo; we don’t know anything else."

Chen Xuan nodded, "No matter whether Ding Liang was involved in this or not, he is definitely closely related to this Brother Guo. Here’s what we will do: I will find a hotel for you two to stay in for now, and I will have someone investigate this Brother Guo to see if we can dig him out. How does that sound?"

Ding Lijuan nodded, "That’s fine, but I am warning you, you absolutely must not call the police! Don’t cause any trouble for Xiao Liang!"

Even at the loss of tens of millions, and with suspicion already falling on Ding Liang, Ding Lijuan was still protecting him, which was very frustrating.

"Alright, I promise you!"

After that, Chen Xuan arranged for Ding Lijuan and Han Bowwen to stay at a five-star hotel.

"My mother, honestly, she’s almost been completely fooled by Ding Liang now, even counting money for him after he has sold her out!"

As soon as they stepped out of the hotel, Han Jingting vented her anger.

Chen Xuan gave a slight smile and comforted her, "Why not look at the problem from another angle? Ding Liang handling things in such an extreme way this time may not necessarily be a bad thing!"

"He swindled so much money from my mom, and that’s a good thing?" Han Jingting was puzzled.

Chen Xuan explained with a smile, "Think about it, previously Ding Liang only swindled our money, that’s why mom has been defending him. If this time it’s proven that he really did swindle mom’s money, do you think she will continue to stand by his side?"

Han Jingting’s eyes lit up, "You mean, we can use this opportunity to make my mom see Ding Liang’s true colors?"

Chen Xuan nodded, "Exactly, kicking Ding Liang out of mom’s heart is the best opportunity we have!"

Han Jingting was thrilled.

Because of Ding Liang’s presence, her mother’s temperament had changed drastically. She had even started to neglect her own daughter.

If they could use this chance to bring her mother back around, then it would be an incredibly good thing, worth any amount of money!

Afterward, Chen Xuan made a phone call to Xue Qin, asking her to help investigate Ding Liang’s whereabouts and the identity of that Brother Guo.

However, the information they had in hand was very limited. It wasn’t easy to conduct such investigations.

Before they knew it, three days had passed, and there were still no results from Xue Qin’s investigations.

That day, while Chen Xuan and Han Jingting were having lunch at the company, Han Jingting suddenly received a phone call from Han Bowwen.

"Jingting, we’ve spotted that Brother Guo. Hurry over!"

Han Bowwen gave an address.

Han Jingting and Chen Xuan immediately drove off.

Twenty minutes later, the two arrived at the entrance of a high-end KTV.

"Jingting, you guys finally made it!" Han Bowwen was overjoyed to see Han Jingting.

He had been shopping with Ding Lijuan when they coincidentally saw Brother Guo entering this KTV. They immediately called Han Jingting and waited outside.

"How is it, is he still inside?" Han Jingting asked.

"He’s there, but it seems like he’s with some important figure. It won’t be easy to meet with him!" Han Bowwen said with a bit of worry.

Chen Xuan didn’t care, "I’ll go in alone, you guys wait for news outside!"

"Just you alone? Can you handle it?" Han Jingting was concerned.

Chen Xuan returned her a smile, "Don’t worry, it’ll be fine!"

With that, Chen Xuan walked straight into the KTV.

"Are we being a bit rash here? Brother Guo is truly an important figure. How could he possibly be a swindler?"

"With Chen Xuan confronting him directly, I’m afraid Brother Guo definitely won’t let him off easily!"

Even now, Ding Lijuan still believed Brother Guo was a real big shot.

Meanwhile, Chen Xuan had reached the top floor of the KTV.

At the entrance of the Supreme Private Room on the top floor, four muscular men stood guard. They all carried bags on their back, the handles of large knives protruding, making it apparent that they were carrying big knives.

"Hey, what do you think you’re doing? This isn’t a place for you. Get lost!"

One of the burly men saw Chen Xuan and shouted at him rudely.

"Excuse me, is Brother Guo in there? I have something to discuss with him."

Chen Xuan’s voice remained calm.

"You’re looking for Brother Guo?" The burly man sized up Chen Xuan, seeing that he was dressed very ordinarily, and didn’t take him seriously.

"Brother Guo is currently discussing an important partnership with our boss, he has no time to care about you! Get lost quickly!"

The muscular man waved his hand impatiently at Chen Xuan, like shooing away a fly.

"Brother Guo? Discussing a partnership?" Chen Xuan’s eyebrows rose.

If this Brother Guo was indeed a fraudster, he likely wasn’t discussing any partnership at the moment, but duping someone again!

"No matter who your boss is talking to, I think you better go in and ask him to cease immediately. Otherwise, I’m afraid your boss will definitely regret it!"

Chen Xuan’s warning was well-intentioned, but the muscular man took it as a provocation, and his expression darkened instantly.

"Motherfucker, I told you to get lost, why all the nonsense!"

Whoosh!

Mid-sentence, the muscular man pulled out a large knife from behind him and placed it directly above Chen Xuan’s head!
