Beautiful CEO's Super Expert

Xiao Dingguo might have kept saying he didn't know, but who was Lv Shimo?

The moment he stepped in and noticed Xiao Dingguo's eyes drifting, not daring to meet his own, he was certain—his guess was correct, Xiao Dingguo must be an informed insider.

"Young Master Lv, I really do not know anything about your brother's affair, please let me go!"

Xiao Dingguo pleaded earnestly.

"It seems that Chairman Xiao won't shed tears until he sees the coffin, then I'm afraid I must show some disrespect."

Lv Shimo walked to the side, lit a cigar, and started smoking.

The two hefty men immediately hoisted Lv Shimo up, leaving his feet dangling in the air, and Xiao Dingguo immediately felt as if every muscle in his body was being stretched, causing excruciating pain.

At that moment, one of the burly men grabbed a stick from the side and began to beat Xiao Dingguo with it.

"Bang bang bang~~~"

The sound of heavy impacts reverberated non-stop in the basement. Soon, Xiao Dingguo spat out a pool of fresh blood.

If possible, he really wanted to reveal that person's name, but he feared death more than anyone.

It was just a beating now, he thought, endure it and it will pass. He believed Lv Shimo was just testing him, and if he persisted in keeping silent, he would eventually let him go.

Die or take a beating, Xiao Dingguo naturally chose the latter, although it was also very painful.

Ten minutes later, Xiao Dingguo already felt as if his internal organs had shifted out of place, and the scars on his body were horrific to look at.

Xiao Dingguo might have never imagined that he could endure such severe pain!

It was a belief that sustained him, the thought that enduring would mean it would soon pass, but if he spoke up, he might lose his life!

It must be said, sometimes the fear of death can unleash infinite potential, as in the case of Xiao Dingguo at that moment!

"Clap clap clap~~"

At that moment, applause rang out. Lv Shimo walked up to Xiao Dingguo with a smile, clucking in admiration:

"I did not expect, Chairman Xiao, that you would be such a tough nut to crack!"

Lv Shimo did not appear to be worried at all about whether Xiao Dingguo would speak; he remained calm and composed.

"Lv, Young, Master, I, really, don't , know."

Xiao Dingguo muttered weakly.

"Is that so?"

Lv Shimo turned around, walked over to a table by the wall with a box on it, opened the box, and took out a syringe and a bottle of reagent.

He then inserted the needle into the reagent bottle, drawing out some of the liquid, which was a pale yellow color.

With the syringe in hand, Lv Shimo walked back to Xiao Dingguo, his face still adorned with a professional smile.

"Lv, Young Master, what, what are you going to do?"

Seeing this scene, Xiao Dingguo couldn't help but tremble with fright.

People are most afraid of the unknown, and Xiao Dingguo had no idea what the consequences would be if this substance were injected into his body.

"Chairman Xiao, this is a concentrated nerve-stimulating drug. If after three injections, you still insist you do not know, only then will I believe that you truly do not know."

As he spoke, Lv Shimo glanced at the two musclemen, and they immediately stepped forward to restrain Xiao Dingguo's body.

Lv Shimo walked over with a serene expression, inserted the needle into Xiao Dingguo's vein, and slowly injected a bit of the pale yellow liquid, then released his grip on him.

But with just that little amount, Xiao Dingguo's eyes soon became bloodshot, his suspended body violently shaking, and his facial features seemed to contort together.

It was evident the pain he was enduring, a pain Xiao Dingguo had never imagined—every pore, every cell seemed to be aching!

His eyes gradually lost focus, his movements grew milder, and a while later, he completely passed out.

"Splash water on him to wake him up."

Lv Shimo coldly ordered, and the two musclemen immediately went to fetch two buckets of ice water from the car, and furiously poured them over Xiao Dingguo's body.

Xiao Dingguo experienced a jolt and immediately snapped awake. When he saw Lv Shimo's seemingly harmless face, his heart trembled violently!

"Chairman Xiao, ready to talk now? Or shall we try another jab?"

Lv Shimo once again lifted the syringe and walked toward Xiao Dingguo.

"Don't, don't, please, I'll talk, I'll talk!"

Xiao Dingguo shook his head in terror, gazing at the syringe. He was so frightened that he could not bear to go through that terrible experience again!

"That's more like it, why make things hard for yourself?"

Lv Shimo passed the syringe to a burly man beside him with a smile.

"Su Chen."

Xiao Dingguo murmured a name.

......

Su Chen was naturally clueless about what was happening in the basement in the outskirts of Jianghai that night.

The next morning, after he finished his Cultivation, he proceeded to make breakfast as usual. After breakfast, Lin Ruoxue left the house first, and it was almost half an hour later when Su Chen left.

Upon arriving at the security department, Meng Shan, as usual, took the initiative to brew him a cup of tea.

But today, Su Chen did not thank him as usual. Instead, he looked at him scrutinizingly, making Meng Shan feel uneasy.

"Brother Su, why are you staring at me like that?"

Meng Shan asked, his voice tinged with nervousness.

"Meng Shan, have you done anything to betray me?"

Su Chen asked coolly.

"How could that be?" Meng Shan's eyes widened in innocence as he swore with his hand raised, "You're like a brother to me, how could I ever betray you?"

"Really? No betrayal?"

Su Chen gave him a skeptical look.

"Absolutely not!"

Meng Shan responded without hesitation.

"Alright then, go about your business."

Su Chen waved his hand and furrowed his brows in thought.

If not Meng Shan, then who could it be? Who was Lin Ruoxue's "undercover agent" planted close to him?

Su Chen's gaze swept over the faces of everyone in the security department, imagining who the "traitor" could be.

But after a moment's observation, he came up empty, which irritated him.

The thought of any little thing he did reaching Lin Ruoxue's ears made Su Chen feel on edge, as if he'd be constipated even going to the bathroom!

Was he overthinking it, with no such person existing at all?

Or was it because he went through the lobby with the girl yesterday and someone else saw, so they told Lin Ruoxue?

But it made no sense; while it was certain people had seen them in the busy lobby, no one in the group knew about his relationship with Lin Ruoxue apart from Meng Shan and Liu Yuan—how would they tell Lin Ruoxue without any reason?

Thus, Su Chen was certain there must be a "mole," and that mole was within the security department!

Could it be Liu Yuan?

However, Su Chen quickly dismissed this thought; Lin Ruoxue wouldn't seek out someone as honest as Liu Yuan.

Just as Su Chen was anxiously fretting over the "mole," a roar like that of a mighty lioness erupted outside the Belle Building:

"Su Chen, you bastard! Get out here to me now!"
