Chapter 70

A slight smile curved at the corner of his lips. Chen Dasheng gave Lu Qiaoe and the other women some instructions and then followed Liu Xiaomin out of the Sisterhood Workshop.

The suburban villa complex.

The Liu family had a military background, but Liu Rongfa himself was a real estate businessman with a group of people under his command. However, they couldn't compare to the Wild Wolf Gang or the Little Knife Society, or rather, there was a significant gap. This was because Liu Rongfa's father was a senior leader in the Rongcheng Military District, still holding considerable power, which allowed the Liu family to secure a place in Shu.

The entire villa complex was extravagantly built, with each building standing alone, all properties of Rongfa Real Estate. The residents of this villa complex were all related to the Liu family, making it a family gathering place.

When Liu Xiaomin brought Chen Dasheng back to the Liu family villa, the sky had already started to darken. As Chen Dasheng walked through the villa complex, he couldn't help but marvel at the rows of houses, thinking how good the life of the rich was.

"Miss is back!"

At the front of the villa, an old woman with a large braid came over to open the iron gate, smiling at Liu Xiaomin. From her appearance, she didn't seem to be Liu Xiaomin's mother but rather a servant.

Liu Xiaomin nodded and smiled, leading Chen Dasheng inside. The old woman's gaze fell on Chen Dasheng, her eyes flashing with a hint of confusion. In her memory, Liu Xiaomin had never brought a man home before. Who was this man following Liu Xiaomin? They seemed quite close.

"Woof!"

As they entered the courtyard, a dog barked, and a white figure darted out from the villa door, immediately pouncing into Liu Xiaomin's arms.

"Baby, Mommy's back!"

Chen Dasheng took a closer look and saw that it was a white puppy. Liu Xiaomin was hugging it, kissing and nuzzling it affectionately, clearly a pet dog she kept.

Treating a dog as a son, a black line appeared on Chen Dasheng's forehead. When a woman gets lonely, she likes to treat dogs and cats as her children. It seemed Liu Xiaomin was quite lonely.

"Woof, woof, woof..."

The puppy, after being affectionate with Liu Xiaomin, seemed to notice Chen Dasheng and immediately started barking fiercely at the stranger, showing its teeth in a hostile manner.

"Stop it, Baby. This is your big brother, call him big brother!" Liu Xiaomin said, soothing the puppy while pointing at Chen Dasheng.

Chen Dasheng's face twitched, almost spitting out blood. Damn, when did he become a dog's big brother, and now he was a generation younger than Liu Xiaomin.

Facing the ferocious barking of the puppy, Chen Dasheng gave it a stern look, and the puppy's barking stopped immediately. It trembled and stared at Chen Dasheng for a moment before jumping out of Liu Xiaomin's arms and fleeing with its tail between its legs.

"Hey, you scared it!" Liu Xiaomin looked at Chen Dasheng with a resentful expression.

"No choice, I just have a strong aura," Chen Dasheng shrugged and smiled smugly. "Is this your pet?"

"Yes, it's a Chihuahua named Xiao Bai, only two years old," Liu Xiaomin said.

Chen Dasheng laughed, "I also have a pet, but it's much older than this little guy!"

"Do you keep a dog too?" Liu Xiaomin looked at Chen Dasheng with confusion, thinking that someone who keeps pets must be kind.

Chen Dasheng laughed, "What dog? I hate cats and dogs the most. They poop everywhere and bark annoyingly. I keep a hundred-year-old turtle named Hu Bu Gui!"

"Hu Bu Gui? Your pet is quite unique," Liu Xiaomin was taken aback, paused, and then looked at Chen Dasheng, "Dasheng, you don't like dogs?"

Chen Dasheng's lips curved into a smile, "It depends on the dog. If it's a female, I like it. If it's a male, it can only stand aside."

Liu Xiaomin rolled her eyes at Chen Dasheng, "Xiao Bai is a female, why did you scare her?"

"It seems you didn't understand me!" Chen Dasheng teased, "Didn't you just call Xiao Bai your baby?"

"Uh..." Liu Xiaomin was taken aback, then reacted, her face changing strangely as she pounced on Chen Dasheng, "You're the dog, you big male dog."

"Hey, you were just hugging that dog and calling it your son, did I say anything wrong?"

"Xiaomin!"

Just as Liu Xiaomin was chasing Chen Dasheng, a middle-aged woman dressed in expensive clothes and wearing a pearl necklace came out of the house.

"Mom!"

Liu Xiaomin stopped, turned to the door, and immediately realized her loss of composure. She quickly tidied her clothes and obediently called out, walking towards Yu Shuang.

Yu Shuang looked at Liu Xiaomin helplessly. When she heard Xiao Bai's barking, she knew Liu Xiaomin had returned and immediately came out. However, she saw her usually elegant daughter playing around with a man in the courtyard.

Yu Shuang's eyes looked at Chen Dasheng, with a mix of confusion and scrutiny. As Yu Shuang looked at Chen Dasheng, Chen Dasheng was also observing her.

With curly hair, dressed like a wealthy woman, and an elegant posture, she looked to be in her thirties or forties, but still had a charming presence. She must have been a beauty in her youth.

She shared some resemblance to Liu Xiaomin. When Liu Xiaomin called her "Mom," it was clear that this was Liu Xiaomin's mother.

Seeing the confusion on Yu Shuang's face, Liu Xiaomin blushed and glared at Chen Dasheng, introducing him, "Mom, this is Chen Dasheng, my student."

"Hmm?" Yu Shuang was taken aback. Last night, Liu Xiaomin had said she was going on a date with Chen Dasheng but refused to bring him home. What had changed today? Seeing the two of them playing around in the courtyard, their relationship must have progressed quickly.

With a hint of confusion, Yu Shuang smiled and said to Chen Dasheng, "So you're Dasheng."

"Auntie, hello!" Chen Dasheng nodded and smiled, "I didn't expect you to be so young!"

"I'm in my forties, how can I be young?" Yu Shuang shook her head. Women love to hear compliments, and although Yu Shuang didn't care much about such things, her first impression of Chen Dasheng improved subtly.

Dressed simply, polite, and good-looking, and most importantly, he was Chen Xiaoli's brother. It's said that the first impression of a person can be formed in just seven seconds. In this short conversation, Yu Shuang sized up Chen Dasheng and nodded slightly.

"Mom, where's Dad?" Liu Xiaomin suddenly remembered that her father had called her, saying that the Cao family had come to demand an explanation.

Yu Shuang said, "In the study. The head of the Cao family came with some people, and they went into the study. Cao Jinsong never does anything without a reason, I don't know what they're talking about!"

"Oh!" Liu Xiaomin bit her lip, her previously shy expression changing, "I'll go see."

"What are you going to do? Your father is discussing serious matters!" Yu Shuang called out, not knowing what Liu Rongfa and the Cao family were discussing. To her, men's business was not something women could interfere with.

Liu Xiaomin entered the villa without turning back, "It was me who called and asked him to come back."

"This child is becoming more and more disobedient," Yu Shuang shook her head helplessly and turned to Chen Dasheng with a smile, "Dasheng, don't mind her."

"Uh, it's okay!" Chen Dasheng laughed awkwardly and then said, "Auntie, I'll go see too."

Unable to bear Yu Shuang's mother-in-law-like gaze, Chen Dasheng quickly followed Liu Xiaomin.

Liu Rongfa's study.

The study had two bookshelves filled with various books, and the walls were adorned with famous calligraphy and paintings, giving the room a scholarly atmosphere.

Liu Rongfa sat behind the desk, wearing a pure black suit, with a round face and a slightly plump appearance. Two people were sitting on the guest seats, the once steaming tea now cold, the atmosphere tense.

Cao Jinsong glanced at the time and said to Liu Rongfa with a hint of impatience, "Brother Liu, when will your daughter be back?"

Liu Rongfa smiled, "Brother Cao, don't worry. I've already called her, and Xiaomin will be back soon."

Liu Rongfa was slightly younger than Cao Jinsong, and they usually treated each other as equals, but Liu Rongfa calling Cao Jinsong "Brother" clearly showed his humility.

"Brother Liu, I know my son's character well. He got what he deserved today. I and Master Huang came here today not to cause trouble but to meet the person who taught my son a lesson!" Cao Jinsong said.

Cao Jinsong's face was smiling, and his tone was gentle, but Liu Rongfa's forehead was sweating. Cao Jinsong was known for his smiling face, and Liu Rongfa didn't believe he was being kind.

Liu Rongfa glanced at Huang Jinshi, the expert the Cao family had brought, whom he recognized. Cao Jinsong bringing Huang Jinshi was no different from coming to demand an explanation.

"According to Shuangshuang, Xiaomin went to Happy Valley with Chen Dasheng today. Could it be that Chen Dasheng beat him?" Liu Rongfa thought. Cao Jinsong had already mentioned that Cao Yin was beaten at Happy Valley, so it was highly likely that Chen Dasheng was the one who did it.

If that was the case, the matter would be easier to handle. With the Liu family and the Chen family from the Sisterhood Workshop, it should be easy to resolve.

After thinking for a moment, Liu Rongfa smiled and said to Cao Jinsong, "Brother Cao, don't be impatient. We haven't clarified the matter yet. We'll ask Xiaomin when she gets back. As for the expert you mentioned, I really don't know who it is."
