Chapter 2284: Never Give Up Any Hope

This crazy scene was even recorded.

Far across the ocean, Su Kexuan saw it all clearly through the lens.

Her plan had succeeded!

Su Kexuan knew the secrets of the past, and she also knew that this matter was a thorn in Chu Tiankuo's heart.

If utilized well, it would absolutely make him lose control in public.

As long as Chu Tiankuo's performance disappointed the family enough, he would become an abandoned pawn.

It would be much easier for Su Kexuan to deal with him then.

As it stands, Su Kexuan's plan is half successful.

Next, it depends on the subsequent development of events to see if they can bring more surprises.

And the development of events did not disappoint Su Kexuan.

Chu Tiankuo's reputation was damaged.

The company's stock price fell.

The board of directors even held Chu Tiankuo accountable and removed him from his post.

And the news that surprised Su Kexuan the most was brought by Jiang Mobai: "Chu Tiankuo beat his own father!"

Upon hearing this news, Su Kexuan looked astonished.

She knew Chu Tiankuo was prone to losing emotional control, but she hadn't expected that when he went mad, he wouldn't even spare his own family.

Jiang Mobai sat beside Su Kexuan, describing it vividly:

"My inside man told me that Chu Tiankuo's father was furious when he found out about him hitting people, and he went after him to settle the score."

"At first, Chu Tiankuo just took the beating passively, but suddenly, he exploded like a lion!"

"He pinned his father to the ground and beat him wildly; if the servants hadn't risked their lives to stop him, his father probably would have lost his life!"

After hearing the whole process, Su Kexuan sighed with emotion.

She murmured: "The current Chu Tiankuo can be considered to have broken with his father and been deserted by everyone."

"More than just a break; his father will definitely purge the family!"

At the beginning of her scheming, Su Kexuan wanted Chu Tiankuo to fall into this very situation.

Now she had succeeded.

Yet she felt a little regret: if she could have been given a little more time, she could absolutely have dug up another old affair to deal Chu Tiankuo a fatal blow!

But now...

Sigh!

Jiang Mobai heard this sigh and looked puzzled: "What's wrong?"

"I originally had a trump card in my hand that could have severely damaged Chu Tiankuo. But now that he is on guard, this trump card has also become ineffective."

"Oh my, the way you put it, I'm very curious about what kind of trump card that is."

"Smuggling."

Su Kexuan only said two words.

But these two words alone made Jiang Mobai feel the lethality.

Indeed, if this trump card were used well, Chu Tiankuo would face imprisonment.

His life would be over.

However...

Jiang Mobai was a bit confused: "Evidence like this, logically speaking, should have been destroyed long ago. Could it still be around?"

"Chu Tiankuo just doesn't play by the rules; he hid the data in a simulation game he developed in his early years. I logged into the game and found that it still runs, and the core data within it is the evidence of his smuggling!"

"Goodness, this person really does things in an unconventional way."

After Jiang Mobai finished lamenting, he became happy again: "Hacking into someone else's computer, isn't that Xie Wanyi's specialty?"

In Jiang Mobai's view, once Xie Wanyi took action, the matter would be perfectly resolved.

But Su Kexuan was not so optimistic.

She said: "This game is quite special; the core data requires a Secret Key to access. If one hacks into it, it will only cause the entire game to crash, and the data will be deleted clean."

"That powerful?"

"Yes, Chu Tiankuo still has some ability, otherwise Xie Wanyi wouldn't have spent so much effort to find him back then."

Jiang Mobai nodded slightly and said again: "It seems Chu Tiankuo has a lot of confidence in his own work to have let the game exist so openly for so many years."

"That is indeed the case."

"Then this Secret Key..."

"The Secret Key is also considered one of his prized works; it should be kept in a place like a safe. But now, Chu Tiankuo has broken with his family and must have taken important things with him when he ran."

Speaking of this, Su Kexuan couldn't help but show a look of regret again.

Jiang Mobai said: "The incident happened suddenly, Chu Tiankuo might not have been able to cover every detail. How about this, I'll have my inside man try to look for it; maybe there will be an unexpected harvest."

Su Kexuan thought for a moment and felt this plan was feasible.

But she had to remind Jiang Mobai: "Chu Tiankuo's side is very dangerous right now; it would be best to have someone assist your inside man to ensure his safety."

"Alright, I understand."

Jiang Mobai set about making arrangements.

At the same time, Chu Tiankuo, like a stray dog, was preparing to take a private jet to flee the city.

Chu Tiankuo's face was as dark as water, and the more he thought about it, the more stifled he felt!

Originally, he had a bright future, and the family business would have been his sooner or later!

But now?

His father was furious, his family spurned him, and if he wanted to survive, he had no choice but to slink away in defeat!

As for the future...

Did he even have a future?

Without the protection of his family, Chu Tiankuo did not even know what his future would look like!

And all of this was thanks to Su Kexuan!

Back then, in a moment of passion, he had revealed the secrets in his heart to Su Kexuan.

He never expected that years later, she would turn around and use them to ruin him!

Su Kexuan... she would pay the price!

Chu Tiankuo clenched his fists tightly, his face full of rage.

But amidst his anger, Chu Tiankuo remembered one more thing:

The things he had confided to Su Kexuan back then were not limited to just the failed investment.

There was also...

Chu Tiankuo's pupils constricted.

He stood up and hurried off the plane!

At this moment, inside the villa—

After Chu Tiankuo left, all the servants here had departed.

The once incredibly luxurious villa was now nothing but eerie.

Suddenly, someone pushed open the side door of the villa and slipped in silently.

This person shone a flashlight, walked up the stairs, and headed straight for the study on the second floor.

The safe in the study was wide open, and the things inside had all been taken.

The person used the flashlight to shine a circle inside the safe, then tapped lightly on the four walls.

After searching all around, he found nothing.

However, an ornament on the desk caught his attention.

Just as he was about to reach out and pick up the ornament...

"What are you doing!"

The housekeeper was startled, dropped the flashlight, and ran.

Relying on his familiarity with the layout, the housekeeper found the fastest route to run out of the villa.

But just as he ran out of the villa, Chu Tiankuo grabbed the housekeeper.

He gripped the housekeeper's neck in a rage, his eyes looking as if he wanted to kill: "So you are Su Kexuan's lackey!"

"Su Kexuan? Who is she? I, I don't know!"

"You're at death's door and you're still playing dumb with me? Heh, I'll twist your head off right now and send it to Su Kexuan!"

Having said that, Chu Tiankuo prepared to strangle the housekeeper to death!

The housekeeper thought his end had come and closed his eyes in despair.

But suddenly, the pressure on his neck vanished!

Opening his eyes to look, he saw Chu Tiankuo's body twitching, and then the body collapsed heavily to the side.

W-what is going on?

The housekeeper moved his gaze in terror and saw two burly young men standing not far away.

One of them said to the housekeeper: "Rest assured, you are safe."

Although the housekeeper had survived a disaster, he dared not let his guard down.

He clutched his aching neck and asked hoarsely: "W-who are you?"

"You don't need to know our identities; you only need to know that it was Mr. Jiang who sent us to protect you."

"Mr. Jiang... Jiang Mobai?!"

"Exactly. The thing Mr. Jiang asked you to find, have you found it?"
