Honest Beta gets scammed

The following day at noon, at Xinying Hospital.

He Xiangchen sat on his hospital bed eating lunch. The meal was exquisite and delicious, but he ate somewhat absentmindedly.

His phone vibrated beside him. He glanced up and saw the screen light up with a notification from an app.

He Xiangchen withdrew his gaze.

His chat history with Li Qing was still from last night, when Li Qing said she had to go to work, and there were no new messages after that.

He Xiangchen didn't have any particular thoughts. According to Li Qing's schedule, he should still be sleeping at home at this time. The only chance they could have a chat was when Li Qing was at work in the evening.

He put down his chopsticks, took a tissue to wipe his mouth. His condition was now completely stable, and staying in the hospital any longer would be a waste of time.

He Xiangchen threw off the covers and got out of bed, preparing to change his clothes, pack his things, and leave.

He took off his hospital gown, revealing a muscular and toned physique.

With broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and well-defined abdominal muscles, he showed no signs of illness. Just looking at his powerful physique, it was hard to associate him with the words "poor health" he had mentioned.

I had just changed into my shirt and buttoned it up when there was a knock on the ward door.

"Enter."

He Xiangchen didn't even turn his head, and casually replied.

The door was pushed open, and Xu Shi walked in.

"Mr. He."

He said something and then began to skillfully pack up He Xiangchen's laptop and documents left in the ward.

Although he was hospitalized, he didn't stop working.

"How's that batch of guns going?" He Xiangchen asked lazily as he buttoned up the last button.

"It has been safely transported there," Xu Shi replied respectfully.

He Xiangchen hummed in agreement and didn't ask any more questions. He always trusted Xu Shi with these matters.

Xu Shi put his computer into his bag, glanced at his boss, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes, but after thinking for a moment, he decided to speak.

"Mr. He, regarding the issue of that illegitimate child, do you need our help...?"

He didn't finish his sentence, but his tone spoke volumes, hinting at something.

"What the hell?"

Upon hearing this, He Xiangchen finally turned his head, frowned, and looked at Xu Shi with a puzzled expression.

"What are you saying?"

Seeing He Xiangchen's reaction, Xu Shi became even more serious.

He knew this was a family secret, and since He Xiangchen hadn't brought it up with him, he shouldn't have asked.

However, the Xu family had always been retainers of the He family. In his generation, he stood on He Xiangchen's side. He was already sharpening his sword, but He Xiangchen had no intention of vying for power, so he had no place to use his skills.

Now, a shameless illegitimate child has suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Even if He Xiangchen doesn't speak up, now that he knows, there's no reason for him to pretend he doesn't know. He should deal with him as soon as possible.

Xu Shi lowered his voice and his expression was serious.

"Mr. Li has already told me, Mr. He. If I may be frank, I don't think you should tell a club employee about this. The fewer people who know about it, the less trouble it will be to resolve."

He Xiangchen: "..."

"ha."

It turns out that people can actually smile when they're speechless.

"My parents have a great relationship, where did this illegitimate child come from?"

"It's one thing for that country bumpkin Li Qing to believe it, but why did you believe it too? Have you been working for nothing all these years?"

fake?

A look of confusion flashed across Xu Shi's face, but his eyes suddenly became clear.

He Xiangchen picked up his laptop and car keys, glanced at Xu Shi with a strange look, and said, "I think you shouldn't follow me anymore. The most important thing for you right now is to study federal law more."

He had long felt that there was something wrong with the way the Xu family educated their children, and that their thinking was too dangerous.

The whole family influenced everyone around them, making the He family seem like criminals.

He hadn't said anything before because he thought the atmosphere was good for his family's business negotiations, but now that things were happening in the Federation, his words and actions were bordering on the audacity of outlaws, which was a bit exaggerated.

This needs to be rectified. It's not like his father's time anymore. This is a society governed by the rule of law. Even with the He family protecting him, this shouldn't be happening.

And so, He Xiangchen left Xu Shi behind, took the medicine prescribed by the doctor, and left the hospital alone.

He first drove to the company to finish processing some backlogged documents. When it got dark outside the office window, the streetlights came on, and the clock struck eight o'clock in the evening, he stopped what he was doing.

He Xiangchen stretched, grabbed his car keys, and drove straight to Shengxin Club.

This time, he deliberately didn't go with those spoiled brats. Instead, he booked a private room, ordered a few cakes, and then leaned back on the sofa, playing on his phone while waiting.

A short while later, there was a knock on the door of the private room.

He Xiangchen's lips curled slightly. He put down his phone and got up to open the door.

However, when the door was opened and he saw who was standing outside, his smile froze.

The person who came was not Li Qing.

Instead, it was the blond waiter he had seen before.

"Excuse me, is this the cake you ordered?"

He Xiangchen turned aside expressionlessly to let him in.

He leaned against the door frame, silent, his eyes scrutinizing the waiter's every move.

Cheng Li didn't notice that after placing the cakes one by one on the table, she was about to leave.

As they passed by He Xiangchen, a voice suddenly rang out.

Where is Li Qingren?

He clearly remembered that it was always Li Qing who delivered the orders to him before.

Cheng Li paused, hesitated for a moment, and then replied, "Li Qing? He was fired."

He Xiangchen's voice suddenly rose in pitch!

"Is it open?"

Cheng Li ran away.

Zhang Chen's phone rang.

Looking at the caller ID on his phone, Zhang Chen smiled knowingly.

What's meant to come will come.

He took two deep breaths to compose himself before clicking to connect: "He..."

"You fired Li Qing! What did he do that you had to fire him!"

Zhang Chen maintained his smile and explained, "President He, I didn't fire him without reason. Miss Xu Shuang came over personally and specifically asked me for Li Qing."

"Xu Shuang?" He Xiangchen's tone remained unfriendly. "You'd just give her what she wants? Who is she? Did she get my permission?"

"With your consent."

"When did I...?"

He Xiangchen's words came to an abrupt halt.

His expression froze, and his dead memories suddenly returned.

Damn, it seems like there really is such a thing!
