Chapter 716: Seeing Qingxue again

She didn't believe that Gu Beicheng chose to cooperate with Tang Jihuai on a whim. The eldest lady had just gone missing, and their Gu family had already started acting, which showed that the Gu family and Gu Beicheng had long harbored the intention to annex the Tang family.

Even more darkly, Chen Xiaoxiao even suspected that Gu Beicheng entering the Tang Group to approach the eldest lady was also to plot the family property. It was a pity that because the eldest lady married Xu Tian first, his wishful thinking fell through.

Now that the eldest lady had just gone missing, he revealed his original greedy true face. After seeing Gu Beicheng clearly, Chen Xiaoxiao realized belatedly that Xu Tian was the one who was sincere to her eldest lady.

Whenever Chen Xiaoxiao thought about the stupid things she had done targeting Xu Tian before, she was so ashamed that she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

"I kept you here not to settle scores, but..."

As soon as Xu Tian spoke, Chen Xiaoxiao understood his meaning.

"Mr. Xu, you want to ask about my rhetoric in the dungeon just now, right?"

"That's right," Xu Tian nodded.

"I heard from Wuqing that they were subordinates of the Shadow Master, and they obeyed you and lived with you in the villa in the suburbs of Jiangcheng, so I guessed that you had once again impersonated the Shadow Master."

Because Chen Xiaoxiao and Tang Bingyan and others had encountered an ambush by professional killers when they were on a business trip to the Lighthouse Country before, Xu Tian led more than a dozen Tang family secret guards to impersonate members of Shadow to relieve the siege.

So when she heard Wuqing and the others say they were the Shadow Master's subordinates, she figured out the key to it.

"And just now at the Azure Wolf Hall, those people seemed to obey Mr. Xu, so I guessed that for some reason you had once again impersonated the leader of the Azure Wolf Hall, the Wolf King."

"But that person named Zhong Ling was obviously suspicious of your identity and tried to find your flaws, so I made up that set of rhetoric."

"I see."

Xu Tian nodded. Although Chen Xiaoxiao was sometimes too paranoid, she was not a stupid person to be able to sit in the position of the Tang family secret guard leader.

If it weren't for Chen Xiaoxiao's words, he and Fengwu and the others would probably have died under Zhong Ling's blade by now.

"Mr. Xu, no matter what, you are now the leader of the Azure Wolf Hall, the Wolf King. I have a request; I hope you can let me stay on Wuji Island to work for you."

Chen Xiaoxiao suddenly knelt on one knee in front of Xu Tian.

There were too many sad things in Huaxia, and now that Tang Bingyan was missing, she had no reason to stay there.

Xu Tian didn't speak immediately.

Keeping Chen Xiaoxiao had no disadvantages for him.

Based on his understanding of this woman, she would definitely not do anything two-faced, so he didn't worry that the other party would expose his identity.

The most important thing was that Chen Xiaoxiao could look for Tang Bingyan's whereabouts for him; things he found inconvenient to do could be handed over to Chen Xiaoxiao.

After thinking for a moment, Xu Tian spoke again.

"You go find a place to stay with Wuqing and A Biao first; I will arrange tasks for you later."

"Before that, you must absolutely not mention Shadow again, and you must not call me 'Shadow Master' or 'Boss'."

"Thank you, Mr. Xu!" Chen Xiaoxiao was very grateful. "I will warn them when I go back!"

Xu Tian waved his hand and let Chen Xiaoxiao leave.

After Chen Xiaoxiao left, the office returned to silence.

Just as Xu Tian was thinking about his future plans, a rustling sound suddenly came from the door.

Before he could stand up, a giant object crashed into the half-open office door.

It was the white wolf named Divine Dragon.

After the white wolf entered, it went straight to Xu Tian and rubbed against his feet. This appearance didn't look like a fierce beast at all, but rather like a large domestic dog.

Originally, Xu Tian was very wary of this beast, but seeing that it really had no hostility toward him, he gradually relaxed his vigilance.

"Wolf King!"

At this time, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside the door.

Immediately after, an older man rushed into the office in a hurry. Before Xu Tian could speak, he said hurriedly.

"It's bad, Yue Moli is here! And she wants to see you!"

"My Lord, do you want to see her?"

Inside the Azure Wolf Hall, except for Jiang Chuan, others didn't know the relationship between the Wolf King and Yue Moli, so this older man was so nervous when he saw Yue Moli.

"It's fine, let her in," Xu Tian waved at the other party.

Yue Moli wanted to see him; it wasn't something he could refuse just by saying he didn't want to.

Moreover, he also had questions he wanted to ask her.

Since this woman already knew his identity, why didn't she expose him? Why did she even bring A Biao, Chen Xiaoxiao, and others back to Wuji Island from Jiangcheng?

Hearing Xu Tian's words, the older man's face was obviously somewhat reluctant, but he wouldn't go against Xu Tian's wishes, so he didn't say much and turned to walk out of the office.

A few minutes later, a long-haired woman wearing a light pink sports suit walked into Xu Tian's office with a smile.

This woman was always like this; whether it was her appearance or her dress, she gave people a very bright and sunny feeling.

However, only those who truly understood her or had seen her methods could deeply realize how terrifying the nature hidden beneath her brilliant appearance was.

Just after Yue Moli walked in, a giant object emerged from behind her; it was a lion with snow-white fur all over.

The more Xu Tian looked at this lion, the more familiar it felt.

Wait... isn't this Qingxue, raised by Tang Bingyan?

Qingxue poked its head to examine the furnishings in the office, and as soon as it saw Xu Tian, it rushed over directly.

"Awoo!"

The white wolf, which had been crawling at Xu Tian's feet, let out a fierce roar, staring at Qingxue vigilantly as if guarding its food, not letting it get close.

"This snow lion is raised by you, right?"

Yue Moli narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at the two giant beasts confronting each other.

Xu Tian remained silent.

In order to coax the little guy to be happy, he had taken Qingxue to the villa in the suburbs to keep Yun Moting company. Not long after Yun Moting left, Tang Bingyan went missing, so Qingxue had been left in the villa unattended.

Xu Tian didn't expect Yue Moli to bring Qingxue back to Wuji Island as well.

"You should have already discovered..."

Xu Tian took a deep breath, knowing he couldn't hide, so he decided to show his cards to the woman opposite him.

"Discovered what?" Yue Moli blinked in confusion, as if she didn't understand the meaning of Xu Tian's words at all. "So you have been living in Huaxia during the time you went missing. The water and soil there are indeed nourishing; no wonder you didn't want to come back after leaving for so long."

"I was worried that you wouldn't adapt after coming back, so I invited the friends you met in Huaxia over. You won't mind me taking the liberty, right?"

Xu Tian was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

What did Yue Moli mean by this? Did she really not know his identity, or was she deliberately testing him?

Or did Yue Moli not suspect him at all, but just investigated who he had been in contact with while in Huaxia? ===== CHAPTER 717 =====
