“Can he do it?” Gao Lin asked doubtfully.

“Yes. Trust me,” Qiao Mei replied firmly.

Actually, she did not know if Xia Zhe would be able to find out the truth about everything that happened back then. However, since Xia Zhe had asked her to leave this matter to him, then it meant that he would definitely handle it well.

Not long after, Xia Zhe walked out of the basement with a stack of paper in his hand which contained Zhang Chengs confession. Zhang Chang had confessed to how he had framed the Gao family all these years, killed Gao family members and about all the different illegal stuff he did in his business. Each and every page had Zhang Chengs signature on it.

Gao Lin took the confession and read it for a long time. Tears streamed down his face as he held onto it with trembling hands. Every word was like a knife stabbing into his heart. Every page referenced the life of a Gao family member!

He rushed into the basement as if he had gone crazy, dropping the entire stack of paper on the floor. Xia Zhe picked up the pages slowly. Neither of them stopped Gao Lin. In his frame of mind just now, it was useless even if they tried to stop him.

“Given his current state, do you think Zhang Cheng will die?” Qiao Mei asked.

Xia Zhe waved the key in his hand and said, “I’ve already locked the door. He won’t be able to hurt Zhang Cheng since Zhang Cheng is locked up in the cage. Don’t worry, we have to let him vent his anger in some way.”

“Sigh…” Qiao Mei took a deep breath. If she was Gao Lin, she would probably go in and kill Zhang Cheng no matter what it took.

With a written confession, it would be a lot easier for Qiao Mei and the others to report Zhang Chengs crimes and make him pay the price. All of them slept over at the Gao familys house that night and Gao Lin asked Xia Zhe to share a room with him.

Gao Lin sat on a chair by the window and looked at Fang Chen, saying, “Young

Master Fang, come and sit here.”

“Old Master Gao, you can just call me Fang Chen,” Xia Zhe said as he sat on the stool beside Gao Lin.

“Then I won’t beat around the bush with you. I’m Pu Nan’s granduncle and she’s my sister’s only flesh and blood. She’s a very precious member of the Gao family. You’re not suitable for her,” Gao Lin said sternly.

Xia Zhe did not know what to say to that. If Gao Lin found out that the two of them already had three children together, he wondered what kind of expression Gao Lin would have.

“l wonder what Old Master Gao is worried about?” Xia Zhe asked.

“l hope that her life will be safe and smooth, but you know very well the kind of life you lead. Can you guarantee her safety given that you live a life filled with danger? I know very well that during your time in Sky City, even Zhang Cheng has to give in to you sometimes. The Yang family was also destroyed by you. I can’t entrust Pu Nan to someone like you,” Gao Lin said.

“I understand your concerns, but I think it’s actually very clear to you that since I can expand my business to such an extent, then I have the ability to protect Pu Nan well. I can give her the best life and 1 can give her everything she wants. Even if she asks me to die now, I will do it without any hesitation,” Xia Zhe said seriously as he looked into Gao Lin’s eyes.

Gao Lin looked into Fang Chen’s eyes to see if there was any indication that

Fang Chen was lying. After staring closely for a long time, he realized that Fang Chen seemed to be telling the truth. He sighed helplessly. The family’s children and grandchildren had their own lives to live. At this point, he could not stop the couple from wanting to be together.

“Young man, I hope you will remain responsible for what you just said. If you let her down, I’ll settle the score with you even if 1 have to sacrifice these old bones of mine,” Gao Lin said.

“It’s a deal,” Xia Zhe said to Gao Lin with a smile.Novel Fire - novelfire.net

The next morning, Qiao Mei woke up very early and waited downstairs. She had been feeling flustered since Xia Zhe and Gao Lin went into their shared room yesterday. She did not know if Xia Zhe would be interrogated and what would happen if his real identity was exposed!

As soon as Xia Zhe came out, Qiao Mei pulled him to a corner and asked, “What did my granduncle say to you yesterday?”

“Nothing much. He just told me that if I don’t treat you well, he will kill me,” Xia Zhe said casually.

“l hope you didn’t expose your identity!” Qiao Mei asked nervously.

“Don’t worry, he doesn’t suspect anything.” Xia Zhe lifted Qiao Mei’s chin and asked, “Little girl, are you worried about me or worried that our relationship will be exposed? Your granduncle said that he wanted to kill me!”

“Hmph! In that case, you just need to be nicer to me and my granduncle will spare your life!” Qiao Mei said smugly..
