Chapter 146: Chapter 146: Root out the moles

The night before.

"Is she okay? Should we send the lady boss to the hospital?"

"Will she turn into a monster?"

"Ding Yu, monsters don’t exist," Shentu Chu said.

A bunch of heads were staring down at the unconscious woman lying on the bed.

"There’s no cure for this type of drug. It will have to wear off in a couple of hours. I only hope it’s not life-threatening," the masked man pulled off his mask, revealing his sharp and chilly peach blossom eyes. Two Hello Kitty plasters reflected underneath the lamp, looking out of place for someone dressed all in black.

"Whoever drugged her had ulterior motives, sending her to a den of lions. Luckily, you came in time," Shentu Jing gently pushed aside a stray hair from Qin Zhuzhu’s face. He couldn’t keep his eyes off that innocent yet seductive face.

"I’ll deal with that bastard who touched sister-in-law," Shentu Chu turned toward the door.

"Don’t," came Shentu Jing’s chilling voice.

Shentu Chu stopped in his tracks.

"I want to deal with it myself. You only need to root out the moles in our house and company," Shentu Jing said.

"Our house and company?" Shentu Chu narrowed his eyes at him.

"Why? Isn’t it ours?" Shentu Jing looked up from his Little Pearl to his elder brother, who had stuffed his hands into his pockets.

"He thinks it’s all his," Han Juexian remarked.

An unknown emotion flashed across Shentu Chu’s eyes before it was replaced by his usual demeanor.

"Shut up your subordinates when we’re talking next time, will you? They’re getting out of hand. It’s said that a subordinate’s behavior reflects that of their boss," Shentu Chu had a smug look on his face, glancing at Han Juexian and Ding Yu.

Han Juexian could only cross his arms while Ding Yu pouted at Shentu Chu’s comments.

He was right; they had no right to barge into a conversation when the bosses were talking. Han Juexian didn’t like Shentu Chu at all. Shentu Chu was known for being cunning and tricky. He was also famous for his newest motto in Shengjing: I’m a selfish man. I want everything everyone has. When I can’t have what I want, I will destroy it.

"I want a lot more, Father. Things you’ve never given me before. Things you only gave to Second Brother. Am I wrong to want these things?" Shentu Chu had once asked.

Han Juexian still remembered those words Shentu Chu had said to Shentu Dong in the office. Although it was supposed to be private, Han Juexian had installed a listening device in the office. But later, Shentu Chu found out about it and purposely smashed it to pieces.

"Where’s Luo Yue? You didn’t do anything to him, did you?" Shentu Jing asked his elder brother suspiciously.

"Yue Yue? How would I know?" Shentu Chu’s answer was noncommittal, as always.

Shentu Jing shot him a murderous look, his eyes colder than the Arctic Circle.

"Woah, what’s with that look? It’s not like I killed him or anything! I have to act a little domineering to show everyone who Shentu Chu is," the elder brother said.

Shentu Jing pinched the space between his eyebrows.

"You’re annoying," he stood up and took a blanket to cover the unconscious girl. "Do you know that?"

"Since we were young, we’ve always been this way."

"Ah Xian, Ding Yu, leave," Shentu Jing said to them.

"Leave?" Han Juexian looked at his boss’s nonchalant side profile. It seemed like he wanted to discuss something extremely private with Shentu Chu.

Without questioning, Han Juexian wrapped his arm around Ding Yu’s neck and dragged him out of the room. He walked past Shentu Chu, giving the latter a ’’touch my boss, and I’ll beat you up’ glare. The door shut behind them.

Shentu Jing motioned for Shentu Chu to follow him to the side room. He didn’t want to disturb his Little Pearl’s rest.

"Actually, you could have really killed me. Why didn’t you?" Shentu Jing had a solemn expression.

"Kill you?" Shentu Chu took a step toward him. "Then who’s Father going to spank in the future?"

Shentu Jing let out a soft laugh.

"Who’s going to deal with Mingye? And who’s going to take care of my sister-in-law?" Shentu Chu said.

"Mingye is very easy to deal with."

"Not for me. He clearly listens to you and Zhaoling. I have to go. Staying too long might arouse suspicion," Shentu Chu walked to the door. However, he hesitated before turning the knob.

"By the way, stay dead for a little while, can you? Don’t go running around showing yourself in public. This girl is making you do crazy things. One day, you’ll have to tell her how much you—" Shentu Chu looked over his shoulder.

"I know. Just get out of my sight," Shentu Jing was very eager to chase him away.

Then Shentu Jing called Peixuan Ruxi to take Qin Zhuzhu back to his villa.

The next morning.

Ding Yu and Han Juexian sat in the car, waiting for someone.

Someone walked past and rapped the window three times. Han Juexian rolled the window down. A white envelope dropped in.

He rolled the window back up and watched through the rearview mirror as the person walked off.

Han Juexian spoke into his earpiece.

"Boss, I’ve got all the information."

In the Shentu Group.

Shentu Chu sat in the CEO office with a laid-back, lazy expression.

"Why did you fire them!?" Shentu Dong strode in and threw a list of names on the desk.

Shentu Chu glanced at the list and lifted his eyelashes to look at his father.

"They were redundant. The logistics department is overstaffed," he replied.

"Overstaffed? Or are you filling all these positions with your own people? Chu’er, I raised you for many years, but I never expected you to be this cunning! I only hope you don’t ruin the Shentu Group in your hands! Hmph!" Shentu Dong glared daggers at his son before stomping out.
