1Liu Xia nodded, but didn't reply. Instead, he changed the topic and asked, "How do you plan on dealing with that Sun Li?"

"Sun Li has news?" Hearing Liu Xia's words caused Meng Fan to stare in shock. From the time he had returned until now, the only enemies he had were Sun Li, who had kidnapped his parents. To him, this was even more unforgivable.

"I just have some news. I heard that he's hiding in a village below Dragon City. I haven't confirmed the news yet!" Liu Xia's tone was ice-cold, somewhat similar to Liu Xu's today.

However, one of these two had experienced life and death battles, so they didn't care about the warmth of others. The other one could indeed disguise himself.

"Find out where he is! I want him to pay his debts! " Upon mentioning Sun Li, Meng Fan's face turned cold.

For him, the safety of his parents was his last resort. Unfortunately, Sun Li had touched his bottom line.

"Alright!" Liu Xia understood Meng Fan very well, so he didn't say anything. He turned around and walked off into the distance.

Meng Fan watched Liu Xia's back until he disappeared into the night. Only then did he open the file in his hand and look at the information on the five companies.

Meng Fan didn't know much about business operations, but now that he looked at the information on these five companies, he couldn't help but be shocked. Among these five companies, there were actually three with a dark history.

Even Liu Xu's company had a security company. This aroused Meng Fan's suspicions.

Since Liu Xu's company already had a security company, they didn't need to hire him. Unless there was a conspiracy behind it, but from what Meng Fan saw today, he really couldn't see the result.

However, Liu Xia became one of the three powerful companies, and Liu Xu's company was one of them.

The other two families were the Long Xiang Group. The chairman was a middle-aged man in his fifties, from the photos, he could be considered a reliable person. Being in charge of the Long Xiang Group at the age of twenty, he had no dark history in the past thirty years, and could be considered a genuine businessman.

The other company was the Hong Yuan Corporation. The chairman was a single mother, and after taking over the company from her husband, she had done her duty. It was just that her husband was rumored to be a hoodlum who suddenly became rich ten years ago and died in less than two years.

In comparison, the Hongyuan Corporation was naturally Meng Fan's first target. In his opinion, a person who could suddenly become rich was either a traitor or a tyrant.

No matter if it was one of them, they must have had the courage to do everything that happened today. Although the Hong Yuan Group was only managed by his wife, it was much more suspicious than the Long Xiang Group.

Meng Fan had always been a person who did as he pleased. He greeted his parents and then headed straight for the location written in the information.

This was a villa area. Meng Fan had snuck inside, easily dodging the patrolling security guards and entering a villa according to the location on the documents.

Currently, the villa was brightly lit, but Meng Fan was not worried about this. Moreover, he did not discover any security guards in the villa. Entering this place was as simple as returning home.

"Who are you?" Just as Meng Fan entered the villa, he heard a string of young and tender voices sounding from behind him. When he saw who it was, he didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. No matter what, he was still an expert, but now that he had just snuck in here, he was discovered by a little girl.

The little girl vigilantly stared at Meng Fan as if she had caught a bad guy. She was wearing a pink dress and had a teddy bear hugged to her chest all this time. Her small face was especially adorable.

However, to Meng Fan, this was a bit embarrassing. He didn't know what to do after being caught by this little girl. After all, she was just a child.

If he were an adult, even a young man, Meng Fan wouldn't mind silencing him. However, facing this little girl who was only seven or eight years old, Meng Fan had no other choice.

"You're a bad guy?" Seeing that Meng Fan didn't reply, the little girl held the teddy bear in one hand and pointed her chubby little finger at Meng Fan as she shouted.

After saying that, he still found it hard to explain Meng Fan's identity. After thinking for a moment, he continued, "Teacher said that without the permission of the master, anyone who goes to another's house is a thief. You are a thief!"

Meng Fan couldn't back down now. He had broken into this place, but there was no reason for him to say anything. The other party was just a little girl. He froze on the spot. It wasn't that he hadn't killed before, but he really couldn't harm a child if he was asked to.

"Yingying!" Meng Fan didn't know how to explain, but a woman walked out from the second floor of the villa. It was Hu Yun, the Chairman of Hongyuan Corporation that Liu Xia had given him.

"Yingying, he's Mommy's guest!" Hu Yun hugged the little girl called Yingying and gave Meng Fan a deep look. His eyes were full of pleading.

"Yes, I'm your mother's guest!" Hearing Hu Yun's words, Meng Fan relaxed a little before replying.

"Yingying, go to sleep first! "Mom and this uncle have something to do!" Hu Yun hugged Yingying and looked at Meng Fan as he spoke. Seeing that Meng Fan had no intentions of objecting, he wanted to send Yingying upstairs.

"Humph!" I know … "Yingying coldly snorted, shaking off Hu Yun's hand, and angrily continued," You all want to do those bad things. Longlong said that after his father told him to go to bed, he would often do bad things with his mother! "

"Eh!" Meng Fan stood to the side, looking at Hu Yun with an awkward expression, not even daring to look him in the eye. He had come here to understand the situation, why did the little girl mention this to him?

Hu Yun was also shocked by Yingying's words, but because of Meng Fan's presence, he carried Yingying up the stairs. However, he was worried that Meng Fan might be worried that he would run away, so he placed her on the stairs and whispered something to her.

"Thank you!" After Yingying left, Hu Yun walked up to Meng Fan and whispered.

Hu Yun's words made Meng Fan unable to react. In his plan, he should have snuck into the villa, found Hu Yun, and asked him about Liu Xu's assassination. But now because of Yingying's appearance.

He had been caught red-handed, and seeing that his first sentence was not to ask who he was, Hu Yun felt the need to thank him. This made him a little uncomfortable.

After all, they had never heard of the owner of the house thanking a stranger after he broke into someone else's house.

"No need to thank me. I'm not here to hurt you guys. I just wanted to understand some things!" But Meng Fan quickly realized the crux of the matter. Hu Yun was grateful to him, perhaps because he did not hurt Yingying's relationship, but rather directly revealed the reason for his visit.

"Understand the situation?" Hu Yun was stunned and looked Meng Fan up and down. He didn't notice that Meng Fan looked like a police officer, not to mention that the police didn't even say hello before entering the house.

"You should know what happened today! Liu Xu was assassinated! " Meng Fan ignored Hu Yun's gaze as he spoke.

To him, there was no need to explain anything. As for what Hu Yun was thinking, it was her business and had nothing to do with him.

"Who are you?" Hu Yun didn't reply to Meng Fan. Instead, he stared at him as he asked this question.

If Hu Yun was still suspicious of the police earlier, then Meng Fan's words about Liu Xu being assassinated completely dispelled her suspicion. If it was a police officer, then he could ask Meng Fan about the situation and not sneak into his house late at night to ask about him.

"I'm just a Willow …" "Friend!" Meng Fan originally wanted to say that he was Liu Xu's bodyguard, but then he thought that he just understood the situation.

If he were to say that, it would be very easy for him to misunderstand that he was instructed by Liu Xu, and instead explain his identity to her as her friend.

"It's really good to have a friend like you! But I just want to say that even though we are competitors in business, I don't need to let her die. Furthermore, I can't do that! " After knowing Meng Fan's identity, Hu Yun felt a lot more at ease. He sat down on the sofa and said calmly.

Although Meng Fan was not an expert interrogator, looking at a person's expression, it was still possible to judge if that person was telling the truth or not.

Hu Yun just started to panic a little. Even when he said that Liu Xu had been assassinated, Hu Yun's emotions did not change at all. It was clear that the other party was not involved in this and did not care about it at all.

"Good!" I hope that's the answer I want! " Meng Fan didn't dawdle. After hearing Hu Yun's reply, he turned around and walked toward the villa's entrance.

"Wait!" However, Hu Yun suddenly called out. When Meng Fan turned back to look at him, Hu Yun's face turned red as he continued, "Yingying's words, don't mind them!"

Meng Fan had thought that Hu Yun was calling out to him to barge into her house or to say something vicious to him before they parted.

He didn't expect Hu Yun to suddenly mention this. For a moment, he felt a little awkward. Meng Fan had been avoiding this. Although he knew that Hu Yun was only explaining it clearly, the more he said it, the more it seemed like the truth.

"Your daughter is very cute!" After saying that, Meng Fan walked out of the villa and disappeared into the night.

As for Hu Yun, he stood on the spot and secretly sighed. Then, he walked up to the second floor of the villa with a lonely expression on his face.

Meng Fan wasn't someone who easily trusted others, but in front of Hu Yun, he couldn't bring up any doubts. Without mentioning anything else, just her existence, Meng Fan was very clear that Hu Yun wouldn't do something like assassinating Liu Xu.

Furthermore, from his appearance to Hu Yun's discovery, Hu Yun's concern for Yingying was clearly not an act.

Meng Fan knew that as long as Yingying was here, Hu Yun wouldn't do anything out of line. This was not only for Hu Yun, but also for Yingying. No mother in the world would abandon their child.

Moreover, Hu Yun clearly doted on his daughter, Yingying. He would never risk letting Yingying lose her mother to assassinate Liu Xu.

That night, Meng Fan didn't go looking for another target. After leaving Hu Yun's home, he went straight home to rest.

After the contact with Hu Yun, he had a faint feeling that the matter of Liu Xu being assassinated was not that simple. On the surface, it seemed like the person he suspected the most was not.

The next morning, Meng Fan appeared in Liu Xu's office early. After discovering that she was working in the office, he confirmed his conjecture from yesterday.2

The person who wanted to assassinate Liu Xu didn't really want her to die, but had another purpose.

Otherwise, if the opponent knew that he was no longer with Liu Xu, it would be the best opportunity to assassinate him. But since he had been away from Liu Xu for such a long time, she was still intact, which was enough to prove everything.
