CHAPTER 410: CHAPTER 410 MADAM MENG

The fat man gritted his teeth, "I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’m just curious about the story. Why are you saying it’s me?"

Curious about the story?

Cheng Lie pressed his lips together. He didn’t speak, but the bodyguards holding the fat man from both sides twisted his arm forcefully.

The fat man began to wail in pain.

He felt as if his hand was going to be torn off, and to prevent him from screaming, the people on both sides stuffed his mouth.

Sweat poured down his forehead from the pain.

"Still not talking?" Zhao Pan asked.

The fat man gritted his teeth, "I’ll talk, I’ll talk!"

These people were clearly looking for trouble, nearly twisting his arm off. If he didn’t talk, would he leave alive?

"I actually don’t know who it is. There was someone who asked me to inquire about some information online for two hundred bucks. I just did as I was told."

"What does that person look like?"

"He was wearing a hat, I couldn’t see what he looked like," the fat man said.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Pan looked at Cheng Lie.

The fat man also looked at Cheng Lie.

He actually hadn’t seen Cheng Lie before and didn’t expect him to be this kind of man.

As he was thinking, he suddenly heard Cheng Lie say, "He is lying."

The fat man was speechless.

Zhao Pan immediately looked at him.

The fat man really didn’t know when his acting skills had become so poor.

He was like meat on the chopping block; even if he wanted to escape, he couldn’t move.

Did he really need to spill everything? Just the thought of it made his teeth hurt.

But Zhao Pan had no intention of letting him think about backing off, suddenly pulling out a knife.

The fat man stared at the knife and quickly said, "Don’t... don’t kill me! I’ll talk! I’ll talk, okay? It was Madam Meng who told me to make a move against your boss."

He had been in the underworld for many years and could tell at a glance who was good to provoke and who wasn’t.

The man in front of him was not someone easy to provoke.

Indeed, a man who could escape unharmed from Madam Meng’s hands was obviously not to be trifled with.

At this moment, the fat man felt very bitter inside.

He knew that if they really resorted to violence, they would probably strip a layer of skin off him.

Therefore, he decided to talk on his own terms.

Upon hearing the fat man’s words, Cheng Lie frowned. Madam Meng? Who’s that?

Zhao Pan also found it strange. Was Madam Meng from the Meng Family?

But they had no grievances with Mr. Cheng, and even less with the Qin Family.

Why suddenly start making a move against Cheng Lie?

"That’s all there is to it. Madam Meng gave me some money, and since I have some technical skills, she had me investigate your current whereabouts. I was just doing a survey, and who knew you would show up before I found anything."

Thinking about how he almost earned ten thousand bucks, and now it was all up in smoke.

Cheng Lie heard this and looked at the fat man, "Contact information."

The fat man honestly handed over his contact information with Madam Meng to Cheng Lie.

Cheng Lie lowered his eyes, unable to make out the words, and handed it to Zhao Pan.

Zhao Pan walked into the fat man’s room, fiddled with the computer to see if there were any important files, but after a while, found nothing and left with Cheng Lie.

After they left, the fat man’s arm ached terribly.

Thinking about how his hard-earned job went up in smoke and that he got injured, he tearfully lay on the bed crying.

Why was it so hard just to have a meal?!

Back in the car, Zhao Pan said to Cheng Lie, "Mr. Cheng, the Madam Meng he mentioned might be Meng Xiaofeng’s wife."

Meng Xiaofeng, Cheng Lie looked at Zhao Pan, "Who is he?"

If in Beijing, families like the Qin Family and Wen Family were well-known, then the Meng Family was like a hidden master in a secluded forest.

They had the same strength, but they were more low-key.

They rarely attended business gatherings, and the Meng Family members mostly did their own things.

For a family like that, Zhao Pan thought they were reclusive world-class experts.

In the business circle, they didn’t seem to ally with any family, appeared to have decent relations with the Qin and Wen Families, but actually weren’t close to anyone.

Cheng Lie squinted his eyes, the vision in front of him still blurry.

"Did they make a move on me because they know me?" Cheng Lie was curious.

He didn’t know anyone from the Meng Family, and had no interest related to them.

Going all the way to West City to set things up... interesting.

"Yes." Zhao Pan knew that Cheng Lie wanted to know something, and he also hoped he could really find some useful information for Cheng Lie.

At the same time, he felt he must report this matter to Fourth Master.

Madam Meng strangely made a move against Cheng Lie, not only did he not expect it, but Fourth Master certainly didn’t either.

Sure enough, when Qin Chi Jin heard that it was someone from the Meng Family, he was surprised, "If it’s really Meng Xiaofeng’s wife, then truly, hiding in plain sight. Could it be another person with the surname Meng?"

Zhao Pan thought for a moment before saying, "Fourth Master, if it really is this Meng Family, it wouldn’t be a shame to suffer a loss at their hands."

Hearing Zhao Pan’s reminder, Qin Chi Jin’s face turned slightly cold, "Do you think I need your reminder?"

Without Zhao Pan’s reminder, Qin Chi Jin knew that being ambushed by the Meng Family was more reasonable than by others.

At least, the Meng Family was on par with his Qin Family.

If it really was the Meng Family, then that would be interesting.

Thinking of this, Qin Chi Jin squinted his eyes. How bold they were to dare touch his people, very well, very bold!

Seeing Qin Chi Jin’s eager stance, Zhao Pan thought for a moment and had to remind him.

"Fourth Master, I think it’s better to let Mr. Cheng solve this."

"Understood."

Cheng Lie was inexplicably framed and suffered so much. If he didn’t vent his anger, he might be very upset.

Meanwhile, he could just sit back and watch the show.

"When the time comes, keep an eye on Cheng Lie, don’t let things go too far."

Should there be any casualties, he figured, Cheng Lie would be finished.

Even though that boy had a bad temper, was unruly, and ambitious, seeing him grow up, he still hoped he could live a better life.

On the other side, Cheng Lie returned to his residence. As soon as he opened the door, he heard movement inside.

He was filled with vigilance; could it be another sneak attack?

His hand went into his pocket. Ever since the incident, he had carried a small, sharp knife with him.

If anyone dared approach him, he was confident he could kill them instantly.

The scenery in front of him was blurry, and he heard Yun Shifei’s voice, "Xiao Lie, you’re finally back. I made you a meal."
