Chapter 37

After Liu Hanming shouted out this sentence, Chen Shuyuan's entire face became extremely stern. Before she could shout, the big man who was standing opposite Xiao Sheng had already swung his fist at him. In the face of this sudden attack, Xiao Sheng remained very calm, did not hold back, and directly lunged forward to meet the punch, dodging to the side and then throwing a punch. Unexpectedly, the big man's large body moved so nimbly, pulling back and dodging to the side.

"Stop it." The sentence Chen Shuyuan shouted with all her might instantly stopped the two men from attacking. Xiao Sheng, standing in place without retreating a single step, looked at the big man still in a fighting stance with a cold smile, licked his lips, and pointed at him, saying softly:

"Find time to spar with you alone." After saying this, Xiao Sheng took two steps back and walked behind Chen Shuyuan. The brief exchange made the big man understand Xiao Sheng's capabilities. The distance between them was so close, and he had made the first move, but in that moment of engagement, he had completely lost the initiative. The normal fight was instantly dominated by the other side. Hearing Chen Shuyuan's words and seeing the other side stop decisively, the big man did not dare to act rashly, as he had no confidence.

At this moment, with a 'ding' from the elevator, the originally tightly closed elevator doors slowly opened. Chen Shuyuan, standing at the front, glared at Liu Hanming and walked in first. Dai Muxue, who was behind her, followed closely, and Xiao Sheng, who was the last to move forward, stood at the elevator entrance before Liu Hanming could step forward, slowly turned around, and with a harmless smile, said softly:

"Vice President Liu, my boss Chen doesn't like to share the elevator with others. It's not yet time for work, so you can wait for the next one." After saying this, Xiao Sheng took half a step back but kept his eyes fixed on Liu Hanming, who stood opposite him. His sharp gaze made Liu Hanming dare not take a step forward. The elevator doors tightly closed, and Liu Hanming remained in the same position.

Looking at the tightly closed elevator doors, Liu Hanming suddenly turned around and glared at the big man behind him, asking coldly:

"Why didn't you continue your attack? I didn't tell you to stop."

"I'm not his match. I would lose within twenty moves." Hearing this, Liu Hanming was stunned on the spot, drawing a sharp breath. Although he did not know much about the big man's identity, the fact that his father held him in high regard gave an idea of his level. Thinking about this, Liu Hanming's heart twitched.

As if reading Liu Hanming's thoughts, the big man, who was not good with words, added:

"Winning or losing is one thing, but fighting to the death is another. I have some confidence in a fight to the death. If you need it now, I can do it." Hearing this, Liu Hanming's face lit up, and he walked forward, patting the other man's shoulder and said with a smile:

"Not for now, not for now."

Xiao Sheng, standing opposite Chen Shuyuan and Dai Muxue in the elevator, was less flamboyant than usual, his face more serious. Although he had the upper hand in the exchange with the big man, the aura of killing intent emanating from the other side still made Xiao Sheng feel uneasy. Although the other side tried to hide it, Xiao Sheng could still sense a 'bloodthirsty' smell from the other's focused and sharp eyes and the way he threw punches.

Xiao Sheng's unusual behavior made the two women standing opposite him feel 'uncomfortable.' In their brief interactions, they rarely saw Xiao Sheng with such a serious expression. Chen Shuyuan, who wanted to ask something, stopped herself at the last moment. Dai Muxue, who also sensed her master's concerns, decided to investigate further later.

The entire morning was busy for Chen Shuyuan and Dai Muxue. Facing such a 'dire' situation, as the chairman of Huaxin, Chen Shuyuan actively prepared countermeasures, and Dai Muxue, who was always by her side, had little time to investigate Xiao Sheng. Xiao Sheng, who seemed to be doing nothing, privately asked AK to investigate the background of the big man who suddenly appeared by Liu Hanming's side. As for Scout, after Xiao Sheng learned that Mad Dog was the mastermind last night, he had him infiltrate South City for a deeper investigation.

Xiao Sheng himself was not idle. The information about Mad Dog that Wang Li had compiled had already been sent to Xiao Sheng's email. Although the information was not very detailed, Xiao Sheng was quite pleased with Wang Li's proactive attitude.

From the information, this boss known as Mad Dog had been famous in Hongcheng for a long time, starting with smuggling, serving a few years in prison, and having a large number of underlings. He owned three or four nightclubs, which were spread throughout the southern part of Hongcheng. It was not an exaggeration to call him the kingpin of the southern district.

Just as Xiao Sheng had analyzed to Wang Li, although Mad Dog had considerable underground influence in the southern district, he had no connection with Huaxin or Chen Shuyuan. He wouldn't be idle and looking for thrills.

Unable to extend his thoughts for a moment, Xiao Sheng leaned back in the soft seat, involuntarily took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took one out, put it in his mouth, and frowned, organizing the entire situation based on the information he had, hoping to find some clues, whether it be a thread or a lead, to get a general idea.

At noon, when Chen Shuyuan, dressed in a business suit, led Dai Muxue into the office, the smell of tobacco that greeted them made the beautiful boss frown. Although she did not particularly dislike the smell of tobacco, she did not particularly like it either. She pinched her nose, glared at Xiao Sheng, who had already stood up and extinguished his cigarette, and before she could speak, Xiao Sheng said with an apologetic smile:

"Sorry, I was too engrossed in the information and forgot where I was." Today's unusual behavior of Xiao Sheng made the two women feel something was off, but they did not delve into it. Chen Shuyuan pushed open the door to her office and walked in, while Dai Muxue sat in her usual spot.

From their gloomy expressions, Xiao Sheng could easily tell that today's meeting did not go as Chen Shuyuan had hoped. It was obvious that Liu Jiming would use this opportunity to make things difficult. Just as Xiao Sheng was about to close his email and make some casual remarks, Dai Muxue, who usually avoided him like the plague, asked first:

"Hey, you're very unusual today. Is it because..."

Hearing this, Xiao Sheng's eyes lit up with a lustful gleam, and before she could finish, he directly replied:

"You're very concerned about me?"
