Chapter 1590: Waiting for the Fish to Take the Bait

But in order not to let Jiang Chenghao worry, Xu Xiaoxiao hid such emotions deep inside.

Then she said as if nothing were the matter: "If the Xu Family truly aids the villain in doing evil, then they must bear the consequences!"

"Then how do you intend to punish them?"

"Handle it according to official procedure, of course!"

Heh, this woman, saying such harsh words, yet the result is...

Jiang Chenghao revealed a helpless smile, but he did not comment.

After a brief psychological fluctuation, Xu Xiaoxiao tilted her head and examined Jiang Chenghao.

Her examination was somewhat meaningful.

Jiang Chenghao felt a bit uneasy, so he asked: "Are you... plotting something?"

"It's nothing, I just think that after finishing today's act, the next part is time for you to show off your acting skills!"

Jiang Chenghao asked, not quite understanding: "How should I show it off?"

"Find some friends and go to a bar, act upset, and look a bit decadent."

"What is the meaning of this?"

"To show that our relationship has developed a serious rift, so that Xu Zixin will burn her bridges once she sees it."

Just as the car stopped, Xu Xiaoxiao took advantage of the wait at the red light to reach out and ruffle Jiang Chenghao's hair.

Her original intention was to make Jiang Chenghao look decadent.

But... why did he become a bit more handsome instead?

Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but exclaim: "Sigh, my boyfriend really looks good no matter how I look at him!"

Hearing this plain truth of hers made Jiang Chenghao feel refreshed.

He even took the initiative to lean over and kiss Xu Xiaoxiao.

This kiss became a bit uncontrollable.

It was only when the car behind them honked its horn that Jiang Chenghao reluctantly left her red lips.

Then he started the car and drove it through the intersection.

The two people here were full of tender affection.

But Xu Zixin, who had returned home, cried the moment she entered the door.

Her cheek was already swollen, and a palm print was clearly imprinted on it.

Cheng Xueli was given a fright!

Upon hearing that this was the good deed Xu Xiaoxiao had done, she wished she could rush over and kill her immediately!

But Xu Zixin grabbed Cheng Xueli.

She wiped away her tears, her tone cold and sinister: "This is actually a good thing."

A good thing!?

Cheng Xueli asked in shock and suspicion: "Daughter, have you gone crazy? Is it a good thing to be beaten by that little bitch?!"

"On the surface, it is indeed my loss, but Jiang Chenghao was also at the scene, he must hate Xu Xiaoxiao even more! Besides..."

Xu Zixin's fingers gently stroked her cheek, murmuring: "I can use this injury to play the victim in front of Jiang Chenghao."

One acts like a crazy woman throwing a tantrum.

The other is pitiful and heart-wrenching.

Who will Jiang Chenghao side with?

The answer couldn't be more obvious!

Xu Zixin revealed a triumphant smile.

That smile looked very ferocious on her swollen cheek.

Cheng Xueli was silent for a while, then muttered: "You, you're still thinking about Jiang Chenghao."

"Why wouldn't I? I said it before, I will definitely take that man down!"

"But this matter isn't that easy, otherwise you would have succeeded long ago."

Cheng Xueli felt that Xu Zixin could have more choices, it didn't have to be Jiang Chenghao.

But Jiang Chenghao was the obsession in Xu Zixin's heart, and she was determined to have him!

Xu Zixin even looked up and began to analyze with her mother:

"Jiang Chenghao and Xu Xiaoxiao are already at odds! The only reason they haven't broken up is because of responsibility! I... want to help solve his worries!"

Solve Jiang Chenghao's worries? Doesn't that mean...

Cheng Xueli thought for a while, and then her eyes widened.

"What do you mean, you want to clear Xu Xiaoxiao's name?"

"Hmph, who cares about her innocence, I just want to push Wang Qiang out!"

Xu Zixin's plan was very well calculated; she just wanted to make Wang Qiang take the blame so they could reap the benefits.

Cheng Xueli also held deep resentment toward Wang Qiang.

That guy, relying on his wealth and power, had increasingly stopped taking the Xu Family seriously.

But there was one thing Cheng Xueli needed to remind Xu Zixin of:

"Daughter, we and Wang Qiang are grasshoppers tied to the same rope; exposing him is also exposing us!"

"It was Wang Qiang who found people to target Xu Xiaoxiao, we were just deceived by him and gave him some information about Xu Xiaoxiao, so how did we become grasshoppers on the same rope?"

This...

Cheng Xueli was hesitating.

Seeing this, Xu Zixin continued: "Xu Xiaoxiao's career is already ruined, if I can take the opportunity to snatch Jiang Chenghao away, that will crush her final pride!"

This result... just thinking about it is so satisfying!

In the end, Cheng Xueli was persuaded.

She even decided to give her daughter a hand.

As for how to help...

"You watching Jiang Chenghao yourself is too inefficient; I'll have someone watch him for you!"

"Is it reliable?"

"Absolutely reliable!"

After Cheng Xueli finished speaking, she went to make arrangements.

And this time, the person she found brought back good news within a few days.

They said Jiang Chenghao went to a bar alone!

This was a perfect opportunity to turn raw rice into cooked rice!

Cheng Xueli specially prepared sexy lingerie for Xu Zixin.

She also applied very light makeup on her, making her look pitiful and endearing.

This mother and daughter prepared intensively.

Meanwhile, on Jiang Chenghao's side, he was already sitting in a private room alone, waiting for the fish to take the bait.

Who would have thought, before the fish arrived, someone pushed open the door to the private room first.

A man wearing a high-end custom suit walked into the room.

The man had sharp, well-defined features and a perfect face, his gaze sharp and firm.

When the man saw Jiang Chenghao sitting on the sofa, he couldn't help but tease, "It really is you, Uncle."

Hearing the voice, Jiang Chenghao looked up.

Seeing it was Li Beijue, he asked in surprise, "You came to drink too?"

"Yeah, I came with a friend. I heard the waiter mention your name, so I came to check. I didn't expect it to really be you."

As he spoke, Li Beijue took the initiative to sit beside Jiang Chenghao and asked, "What's wrong, did you have a fight with Xu Xiaoxiao?"

"No."

"Then it must be work stress."

"That's not it either."

"You're in a bad mood, that's always a possibility, right?"

"Do I look like someone who is in a bad mood?"

Li Beijue looked closely into Jiang Chenghao's eyes...

There really wasn't any gloominess.

Hmm... this is strange.

Li Beijue rubbed his chin and asked, "Then why come to drink alone? Just pure boredom? If so, you could have come to find us."

"No, I'm not bored, it's just... hey, there's no time left. You should leave here first, and no matter what happens in a moment, don't get involved!"

Jiang Chenghao said this as he stood up and pushed Li Beijue toward the exit.

Li Beijue was both confused and curious.

He turned his head and asked, "No, what are you plotting?"

"I want to find the mastermind who framed Xiao Xiao!"

"Then what do you need me to do?"

"Stand by and watch!"

These four words made Li Beijue smile helplessly: "Just how afraid are you that I'll hold you back?"

"No, it's that your firepower is too intense; it's easy to scare the snake back into its hole."

"Fine, alright, then I'll watch the fire from the other side of the river."

Li Beijue was truly prepared to watch.

He even ran straight to the surveillance room.

There, he could directly see the activity at the door of Jiang Chenghao's private room.

And while waiting, he even shared today's strange encounter with Jiang Baobao.

Jiang Baobao looked at the man in front of her, her heart feeling as though it had been pricked by a needle.
