Best Husband-in-law

Chapter 39

Chu Chen's expression was a little unhappy, and Mr. Lai looked at him from the side, looking at him with an expression of gloating, which made Chu Chen feel inexplicably annoyed.

There was no way to refuse Lin Ruoxue's request, so he could only sit down again, bite the bullet and continue chatting with Mr. Lai. Chu Chen knew that he must have recognized him, but he didn't know why he kept pretending.

"Boss Lin, I wonder if you have heard of the auction in Chengnan?"

President Lai also mentioned this matter, Chu Chen frowned slightly, and recalled the document Xia Xingxing gave him, it seemed that there was indeed a name named Lai in it.

Is he going to participate too?Chu Chen couldn't help frowning a little bit, if this is the case, then it will be a little troublesome.

"I heard that Mr. Lai is going to participate too?"

"I won't go. Our company has been developing in the south of the city for a while, and there is no need to take another company now."

Lin Ruoxue silently nodded in agreement, but Chu Chen looked at Boss Lai vigilantly, whether he was lying or not, the surname Lai is not common here, and among the bosses of big companies, there are even fewer Lai surnames.

Chu Chen clearly remembered that he had seen this surname on the document. Could it be that he was really Mr. Lai in front of him?

"However, my son wants to give it a try. He is just starting now, and Chengnan is also a good start for him."

Sure enough, when Chu Chen squinted his eyes, he knew that he remembered correctly. This Boss Lai was really cunning and cunning. He clearly wanted to take down Chengnan, but he didn't want to show up in person, so he just moved his son out.

"I remember Mr. Lai's son seems to be very young?"

Lin Ruoxue asked suspiciously, Mr. Lai smiled slightly after hearing this, and said in a blunt tone.

"He's a little younger, but the family still wants him to come out and exercise early. After all, it's better to start early than late, right?"

His tone sounded obviously a little angry. Although Chu Chen didn't know how old Mr. Lai's son was, judging from Mr. Lai's reaction, this was likely to be a breakthrough point.

"Will your company also participate?"

Boss Lai turned his finger on Lin Ruoxue, but Lin Ruoxue just nodded and admitted.

"That's right, our company is trying to take advantage of this opportunity to develop well."

Chu Chen curled his lips helplessly, wouldn't it be disadvantageous to hand over his hole cards at this time?However, since everything has been said, it doesn't really matter. Once the auction starts, it will be clear at a glance who participated and who did not.

"Well, Mr. Lin is really ambitious, but Mr. Lin, do you know who owned the company in Chengnan before?"

"In whose name?"

Lin Ruoxue lowered her head and began to think. Chu Chen, who was sitting next to her, immediately became a little nervous. He gave Boss Lai a hard look. This guy just mentioned this on purpose.

"I really don't have any impression. I'm not familiar with Chengnan."

"The previous owner of this company has a lot of background, not only dominating one side in the south of the city, but also has a high status in the whole city and even the world."

Lin Ruoxue was a little confused, why had she never heard of such a powerful person.

"It's the Chu family."

"The Chu family?"

The corner of Chu Chen's mouth twitched visibly, and he almost crushed his fist into pieces, but the more he behaved like this, the more intense the smile in Mr. Lai's eyes became.

"Oh! I know about the Chu family. I heard that their old man was set on fire and burned to death in the house."

Lin Ruoxue was talking about this matter from the perspective of a melon-eating crowd. She had no idea that the person sitting next to her was the son of Mr. Chu who was burned to death.

Chu Chen's face became more and more ugly. He didn't want to hear the woman he loved talk about what happened in his family in front of him in such a way.

However, Boss Lai would never let him go so easily, he continued.

"It's true that the old man is dead, but their son managed to escape, and he still doesn't know where he is now."

"Really? What's his son's name?"

Lin Ruoxue looked at Boss Lai innocently, but Boss Lai's attention was all on Chu Chen. At this time, Chu Chen's tense face was covered with a thin layer of sweat, and he stared at Boss Lai fiercely. Mr. Lai was very satisfied with the murderous look in his eyes.

"It seems to be called..."

He opened his mouth, deliberately slowing down, pretending that he couldn't remember, and let Chu Chen anxiously follow.

"Call……"

Chu Chen couldn't sit still anymore. He didn't know whether Mr. Lai would reveal his identity, and he didn't know what his purpose was for doing so.

"Mr. Lin."

No matter what his purpose was, Chu Chen had to take some action.

"what happened?"

Lin Ruoxue was waiting for Mr. Lai's answer, when suddenly Chu Chen called out and looked at him in surprise.

"It's getting late, are we going to prepare lunch for Mr. Lai?"

Chu Chen casually found an excuse to change the topic just now. Originally, Lin Ruoxue didn't plan to stay Mr. Lai here for dinner, but after Chu Chen said that, she had to make a plan.

"Yes, Mr. Lai, let me arrange for you at noon today to celebrate our cooperation."

Boss Lai looked at Chu Chen's gloomy face, smiled with satisfaction, shook his head at Lin Ruoxue, and said.

"I won't eat lunch here. I still have something to do in the company. I'll leave today."

His goal has been achieved, he just wanted to scare Chu Chen and let him know that he has something to do with him.

"Don't be in a hurry for a while, let me arrange for you."

"No need, the driver is already waiting for me downstairs."

Boss Lai rejected Lin Ruoxue's proposal again, stood up, looked into Chu Chen's eyes, and said.

"Nice to meet you. I hope we will have more opportunities to meet in the future. I still have a lot of things I want to talk to you about."

Chu Chen looked at him coldly. He knew that Boss Lai's words meant a warning to him. He would still have many opportunities to tell Lin Ruoxue his identity in the future, so he was not in a hurry today.

"Boss Lai, let me see you off."

Since he took the initiative to make a move, Chu Chen had no reason to stand still and be beaten. Before Lin Ruoxue could speak, he pushed Boss Lai out of the office.

The two of them came to the elevator together. Seeing that there was no one in the elevator, Chu Chen's expression instantly turned as cold as the highest mountain in the North Pole. Just looking at it made people feel chills all over their bodies.

"Tell me, what do you want?"
