Chapter 258 Confession
Xu Sulin spoke with trembling lips, her eyes filled with deep fear as she looked at Mu Xiaoyu. Even so, her words still made Mu Xiaoyu frown.
Unexpectedly, things turned out this way. Mu Xiaoyu turned to look at Li Chenxu beside her. The other party seemed to have anticipated this outcome and shook his head at Mu Xiaoyu.
Seeing this, Mu Xiaoyu remained silent for a few seconds, then put away her tools and threw them back into the basket.
She didn't have any fetish for disfiguring people's faces; what she did just now was merely to scare Xu Sulin into revealing information about Mu Pengzheng. But now, she understood that the situation was far too complex. Even someone like Xu Sulin knew to grit her teeth and remain silent, so obtaining clues would be even more difficult.
Thinking of this, Mu Xiaoyu's expression darkened.
Just then, Assistant Lin suddenly entered the basement, holding a thick stack of documents, and respectfully handed them to Li Chenxu.
Only after Li Chenxu received the documents did he walk towards Xu Sulin.
Perhaps Xu Sulin truly loved Li Chenxu. Even at this moment, the way Xu Sulin looked at Li Chenxu was filled with infatuation and fervent love.
From the moment Li Chenxu started walking in her direction, Xu Sulin's eyes were fixed on him, almost never leaving him.
Li Chenxu stopped when he was two or three steps away from Xu Sulin. He presented the documents in his hand to Xu Sulin and slowly said, "This is the operating status of Xu's Group in the past few months. I think you should know this better than anyone else. But do you know why Xu's Group has become like this?"
Li Chenxu didn't have a habit of wasting words. Seeing the bewildered look in Xu Sulin's eyes as she looked at the documents in her hand, he immediately cut to the chase: "From the moment you targeted Xiaoyu a few months ago, I began planning how to bring down the Xu family. Actually, I hesitated a bit at the time, after all, the Xu family and the Li family had some connections. I even gave you a chance then, thinking of turning a blind eye. It's just a pity..."
At this point, Li Chenxu's tone suddenly became sharp, and his aura was so intense that it sent chills down the spines of those who saw him.
"It's a pity that you don't cherish it and still want to continue to oppose us. Given the current situation of the Xu family, it won't be long before your Xu family goes completely bankrupt. At that time, no one will be able to save you. Xu Sulin, if you don't want to see the Xu family's foundation destroyed in your hands, you'd better tell us everything you know now."
Li Chenxu spoke at length, unhurriedly, his tone even bordering on calm, but the warning in his words was palpable, serving as a stark reminder to Xu Sulin.
Xu Sulin didn't speak, her lips slightly parted, her eyes widened as she stared intently at Li Chenxu, as if she never expected things to turn out this way.
Apart from Li Chenxu, who has been dealing with the Xu family all along, no one knows the Xu family's business situation better than the Xu family members themselves.
However, the Xu family's business has not been doing well over the years, so no one thought much of the situation before. Little did they know that it was all Li Chenxu's doing.
Li Chenxu's words had a huge impact on Xu Sulin, so much so that at this moment, looking at Li Chenxu's face, she couldn't believe that this was the person she had liked for so many years.
She had always known that Li Chenxu's attitude towards her was rather cold, but she always thought that the two of them were childhood sweethearts, yet Li Chenxu still didn't show any consideration for their relationship.
Hatred was growing wildly in Xu Sulin's heart. She completely forgot that Li Chenxu treated her this way because she had hurt others.
Many people in this world are like this: even though they have done something wrong, they insist on acting like victims.
Xu Sulin stared at Li Chenxu for a long time. Just as Li Chenxu was getting impatient, she finally spoke in a hoarse voice: "What benefit would I get from telling you about Mu Pengzheng?"
She didn't look at Li Chenxu; her head was down, and her eyes, dimly lit, didn't reveal her emotions.
"As long as the clues you provide are useful and true, I can take back what I did before and allow the Xu family to maintain its current level. As for the rest, I can't interfere, after all, it's your Xu family's own business."
The Xu family was already beyond saving. Even if Li Chenxu took pity on them and gave them a little charity, if the Xu family continued with its previous management methods, it would eventually go bankrupt.
It's unclear whether Xu Sulin listened to Li Chenxu's words or not, as she lowered her head and didn't reply immediately.
Seeing this, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but speak up: "Or if you have any unspeakable difficulties, you can tell us. As long as it's reasonable, we will help you without holding a grudge. Xu Sulin, this matter is different from before, it's not a small matter, you'd better think it through."
Mu Xiaoyu wasn't some saintly, innocent girl. Xu Sulin had done so many things to hurt them, so naturally she couldn't just forgive him or even help him. However, if Xu Sulin was really being pressured by Mu Pengzheng or someone else, it would be too much of a loss to keep everything a secret because of that.
After all, compared to Mu Pengzheng and his group, dealing with Xu Sulin was far too easy.
Seemingly surprised by Mu Xiaoyu's words, Xu Sulin paused for a moment, but only for a few seconds before bursting into laughter.
She looked up at Mu Xiaoyu, as if she had already decided that Mu Xiaoyu would not do anything to her. The fear in her eyes was gone, replaced by deep hatred and mockery.
"Mu Xiaoyu, you are so naive."
After saying this, Xu Sulin withdrew his gaze from Mu Xiaoyu and turned to look at Li Chenxu, saying, "I do know some things about Mu Pengzheng, but not much. After I learned that you and Mu Xiaoyu got married, I had people investigating Mu Xiaoyu. So my understanding of Mu Xiaoyu's background is actually no less than yours."
Although Xu Sulin had mostly stayed abroad before, she was so fond of Li Chenxu that she would have anyone investigate the slightest disturbance involving anyone or anything around him, no matter who it was.
This naturally includes Mu Xiaoyu.
