Chapter 1844: Feigning Ignorance

At night, after finishing the meeting, Zhou Bo sat in his Maybach and arrived at his villa in the suburbs.

Ever since Li Tangyan took power, the company was renamed Yibo Group, and as he was Li Tangyan's capable assistant, he was deeply valued by her.

Over the years, this guy had lined his pockets with quite a few benefits, both openly and covertly; sometimes it wasn't that Li Tangyan didn't know, but that she chose to turn a blind eye.

Although she did not hold him accountable, Zhou Bo was a man who knew when to advance or retreat, so he took the initiative to hand over some of the shares in his hands to gain more of Li Tangyan's trust.

As for why Li Tangyan let this guy run wild, the reason was that she had dirt on him in her hands.

However, Zhou Bo had grown older over these years and had developed thoughts of retiring, so he was currently thinking about how to get out unscathed.

In the villa, Zhou Bo held a glass of red wine and hummed a little tune, enjoying his life.

This villa cost 100 million USD to build, and there were over thirty people inside, including bodyguards and housekeepers; Zhou Bo's family did not live here.

Just at this moment, a series of thumping sounds came from outside, which made Zhou Bo very annoyed; he shouted toward the outside, "What's going on? Be quiet."

Zhou Bo did not like noise, which was the reason why he bought such a large property in the far suburbs.

But now, the noise outside made him feel agitated, and he did not understand what on earth had happened.

Although he had already ordered them to stop, the noise outside still did not cease.

"What on earth are you doing? Damn it, are you going to let a person sleep or not?" Zhou Bo was furious; he felt that the servants were becoming increasingly disobedient—was his word no longer effective?

He walked to the door and was about to push it open to see what was going on outside, but the moment he pushed the door open, a strange man pushed him back inside.

This strange man was none other than Chen Yu; Zhou Bo was startled, he took a few steps back and sat down on the sofa, looking at the few people before him in astonishment, then steadied himself: "Who are you people?"

Suddenly, Chen Yu slapped him across the face, and the guy was immediately sent sprawling to the floor.

Tang Qing looked at Chen Yu with some confusion; she felt that hitting someone first upon arrival was a bit excessive.

However, when Zhou Bo was lying on the ground and a pistol fell out from the sofa beneath him, Tang Qing was instantly rendered speechless.

Still too young and too naive; Zhou Bo looked to be in his fifties, with an appearance that seemed harmless to both humans and animals, but in the next second, he would directly pick up a gun and finish you off.

"Alright, alright, everyone let's talk things over, please don't resort to violence." Zhou Bo raised both hands, covering his face which was burning from the slap.

"Sit properly." Chen Yu signaled for him to sit down.

Zhou Bo sat down obediently; the slap just now had caused his nose and mouth to bleed, and his weapon had also been pulled out—now he had no trump cards left in his hand.

"Friends, are you looking for money? There is money and gold in the safe in my basement; if that's not enough, I can think of other ways, just please don't hurt me." Zhou Bo sat down and caught his breath.

"Are you Zhou Bo?" Chen Yu confirmed the other party's identity information.

"Yes, I am Zhou Bo, my wife is Li Tangyan, who are you?" Zhou Bo raised his head with some doubt; his heart was a bit panicked, as he felt that these two people in front of him had come specifically for him.

"Chen Yu." Chen Yu sat down, turned his head to pour a glass of wine from the wine cabinet, and then downed it in one gulp.

Zhou Bo's face twitched slightly; this wine was quite expensive, and the glass Chen Yu drank made his heart ache uncontrollably.

"Friend, do we... know each other?" Heartache aside, his life seemed more important now; Zhou Bo raised his head to look at Chen Yu, vaguely feeling that he looked familiar.

"You, you are Mr. Chen... Chen?" Zhou Bo suddenly remembered; the person who had disrupted the landscape of Chinatown was the young man before him.

And more importantly, he had directly wiped out the people of Fengyitang; how could such a person come looking for him? And looking at the other party's demeanor, it seemed they were not here with good intentions.

"That's right, I am the Mr. Chen who has been quite famous around here lately." Chen Yu nodded and smiled: "Not bad, you still recognize me."

"Mr. Chen is joking, now... who doesn't know you." Zhou Bo forced himself to smile calmly.

After knowing it was Chen Yu, he was actually no longer afraid, because he himself was just an insignificant small character; Chen Yu would certainly not make things difficult for someone like him.

The reason the other party came looking for him must be for some other matter.

"I didn't come to find you today for any other reason, just to ask you about something." Chen Yu smiled: "I hope you cooperate, because I don't have much patience."

"Mr. Chen, please speak, I will cooperate with whatever it is, please speak." Zhou Bo nodded repeatedly.

This guy was very slick and understood the ways of the world perfectly; otherwise, he would not have been able to live until now safe and sound.

"Zhang Yu, your former boss who became a vegetable, what was the real reason for his car accident?" Chen Yu asked directly, getting straight to the point.

Zhou Bo's expression froze instantly; although he masked it extremely well, Tang Qing and Chen Yu clearly saw the trace of panic revealed in his eyes.

"He just had a car accident, and Li Zong, Li Tangyan, was sitting in the same car as him; she was also seriously injured and took several months to recover." Zhou Bo steadied himself and organized his words to say.

"I didn't ask you that much; why did you bring up the fact that she was injured?" Chen Yu stared at Zhou Bo.

Zhou Bo became even more panicked; he clearly had a guilty conscience, and in his panic, he let it slip.

"You emphasized that she was also injured, implying that you wanted to distance her from this incident. Why would you do that? Is it because you have a guilty conscience?" Chen Yu stared at him.

"No, it's not that; I just meant that our Li Zong has really had it hard all these years, I didn't mean anything else." Zhou Bo waved his hands frantically and explained hurriedly: "You cannot misinterpret my meaning."

"You are lying." Tang Qing finally couldn't help but speak up: "You deliberately emphasized that she was also injured, which shows that she has a certain connection to this incident."

"And you know the role she played in this matter; you are desperately trying to cover for her."

"I am not." Zhou Bo argued desperately.

"You are not?" Tang Qing said coldly: "You are desperately quibbling; psychology can never deceive people. What exactly are you trying to hide? Tell me."

"I really don't have anything, Mr. Chen, what exactly did you come here for today? I will definitely tell you everything I know, but as for this matter, everyone knows what the facts are; forcing me is useless."

"Zhou Bo, I don't want to waste words with you. Since I have come here, it means I have already grasped certain information." Chen Yu shook his head and said: "Actually, even if you don't speak, I can use other means to make you open your mouth."
