Ling Fan was very familiar with Chu Xiao's body, although he had seen Chu Xiao naked only once.

But he didn't expect that...

He felt like the very blood in his veins was boiled at the sight of Chu Xiao taking off his clothes...

Ling Fan knew that it didn't augur well, but he couldn't take his eyes off Chu Xiao...

'Damn it!' Ling Fan cursed in his heart. He finally looked away.

'This room... It must be Chu Xiao's study.'

Ling Fan narrowed his eyes and fixed his eyes on Chu Xiao's desk.

There was a pile of papers on it. He tried to find something useful.

But the result disappointed him.

To be more exact, he was shocked.

Those documents were neither important nor useful. Actually, they were all about Fan Ming.

Ling Fan knitted his brows.

He couldn't imagine why all the documents on Chu Xiao's desk were about him. Some of them were true, whereas others were false. Some were even written by Chu Xiao...

Ling Fan tightened his grip on the binoculars.

He felt that something got out of hand...

Seeing that Ling Fan put down his binoculars, Lei Wu asked, "Hey, Boss, why don't you go on spying on him?"

Ling Fan threw the binoculars onto a table and then sat down on a sofa behind him. "Keep a close watch on him, and let me know if something happens."

"Oh." Lei Wu wanted to ask Ling Fan why he suddenly became gloomy, but he dared not. He could only pick up his binoculars and continued spying on Chu Xiao. This time he didn't look into the bathroom.

It took Chu Xiao half an hour to take a shower. Then he went straight to his study.

Suddenly, he looked in the direction of the room where Ling Fan was. He felt as if there was a pair of eyes watching him.

But there was no light in that room. Chu Xiao took his eyes off the window and sat down at his desk. He was lost in thought.

He didn't move a muscle until he received a phone call at dawn.

"Boss, something happened."

"What's up?"

"Chu Xiao got a call ten minutes ago. He dressed, and it seems that he's going out."

"Did you see the caller's cell phone number?"

"Er, no, but I paid special attention to the car keys he took with him as you asked. I know which car he's going to drive."

"Well done. Alright, let's go."

"Okay."

Lei Wu couldn't wait to knock off. After all, he stayed up all night.

When leaving the villa, Lei Wu couldn't help but tease, "Do you know what? Chu Xiao sat in his study staring blankly all night. He's so rich. What is he worried about?"

He didn't notice that Ling Fan, who was reaching for the door handle, stiffened at his words.

……

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

Chu Xiao went directly to NO.7 Middle School after receiving a call from Luo Li.

This time they met in Luo Li's office instead of that cafe.

Looking at Chu Xiao who arrived two minutes early, Luo Li gave a apologetic smile and said, "I'll have to give lessons to students at ten this morning, so... I'm sorry I asked you to come here so early."

"It doesn't matter. Tell me everything you know," Chu Xiao got straight to the point. He noticed that there was a pile of books on finance and money management on Luo Li's desk.

Those books... Fan Ming had recommended those books to his fans on his social media accounts.

Luo Li noticed that Chu Xiao's eyes alighted on those books. With a faint smile, he explained, "I'm somewhat interested in risk investment."

But the next second he changed the subject without hesitation because he caught a look of impatience on Chu Xiao's face.

"It seems that Fan Ming is very important to you." Luo Li was only flying a kite. He didn't expect Chu Xiao to come here so early.

It proved that he guessed right.

Chu Xiao frowned and replied, "It's none of your business. You just need to tell me everything you know." Obviously, he was tired of the kind of crap Luo Li spouted.

"It's unwise to put all your eggs in one basket. So, I think it's better to eat them up..." Luo Li suddenly said.

It was quite baffling that he should make such remarks. But considering that Fan Ming had said the same thing, it was no longer hard to understand.

Chu Xiao's eyes glinted. Luo Li gave a triumphant smile. He didn't notice the coldness in Chu Xiao's eyes.

"What if I tell you I'm..."

Chu Xiao raised his eyelids to look at Luo Li coldly, "You want to say you are Fan Ming, right?"

"I…"

"Don't try to deceive me."Chu Xiao's voice was cold.

Luo Li had made adequate preparation. In order to impersonate Fan Ming, he had even registered an investment account.

Luo Li's computer screen showed his account name 'Counterclock', which was very similar to Fan Ming's 'Countercock'.

But unfortunately, Chu Xiao was keenly aware that they were different.

Luo Li sensed the coldness in Chu Xiao's eyes, and it sent a chill through his heart. "Why don't you believe I'm Fan Ming?" he asked in a trembling voice.

"I know you are not him."

Fan Ming had recommended those books to anyone with an interest in investment on the Internet, but in fact, he didn't buy them. He downloaded pirated e-books.

Fan Ming logged into his account only from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. every day. He never bought or sold shares in the morning.

What was more...

Although he didn't see Fan Ming's face clearly in the bar that day, he felt...

Luo Li was not Fan Ming.

"I..."

"You are wasting my time. As a partner, I want to give you a piece of advice-- don't try to fool me, or I will destroy both the Lan family and you."

What he said was more like a warning than a piece of advice.
