Unbridled, Depraved

Chapter 194 Nanyin's Daughter

"Huilan is a very good woman, and I failed her."

Xiao Chengzhou sighed and continued: "When I returned to Hong Kong City, Ah Heng was only one month old. I thought Huilan would not like this child, but unexpectedly, she always treated Ah Heng as her own child..."

In Xiao Chengzhou's words, the first wife Huilan is a very kind and virtuous wife.

He originally wanted to find Xu Shuqin after dealing with his father's funeral, but the situation was chaotic at the time, and there were countless people who wanted to kill him, both openly and secretly.

When he had secured his position as the leading boss and went to Beijing to find her, he found out that she had already married Shen Wenyuan.

The meeting between the two was not pleasant. Xu Shuqin knew Xiao Chengzhou's true identity. She hated him for being with her even though he had a wife and children at home.

Xiao Chengzhou, who was driven back to Hong Kong by Xu Shuqin, was disheartened and only wanted to focus on his career.

He wanted to revive the Qing Gang and lead his brothers onto the right path.

However, the road to reform is not always smooth.

As a result, he offended many elders in the gang, and many people had complaints about him.

Coupled with years of internal strife, the Green Gang's strength is no longer as strong as before.

There are several gangs of all sizes in Feilong City, all of which are eyeing the Qing Gang and trying to swallow it up.

At that time, Xiao Chengzhou was facing internal and external troubles.

At this critical moment, Huilan stood up.

She knew Xiao Chengzhou's ambition and determination, and also understood the crisis of the Qing Gang.

So, she took action resolutely and tried her best to persuade her father to join other elders in supporting Xiao Chengzhou's reforms.

With Huilan's help, Xiao Chengzhou's reforms were carried out smoothly.

It can be said that without Huilan, there would be no Xiao Chengzhou today.

Hou Mai is the wife of Nan Cheng, Xiao Chengzhou's confidant. Nan Cheng died to protect him when Xiao Chengzhou just returned to China to take over the gang.

Xiao Chengzhou cherished their old friendship and always treated Rohmer and her daughter well.

But unexpectedly, someone set up a trap and made Rohmer owe a huge gambling debt.

Hou Mai couldn't pay the money, so the debt collectors came to her house and smashed things. If Xiao Chengzhou's people hadn't arrived in time, she and Nan Yin would have been abused by that group of vicious people.

In order to protect the safety of mother and daughter, Xiao Chengzhou took them to the Xiao family manor.

It was this decision that accidentally killed Huilan.

That night, Rohmer bribed the servants in the manor and carefully planned a honey trap to harm Xiao Chengzhou.

What she never expected was that the person who went to the room that night was not Xiao Chengzhou, but Huilan.

Nan Yin grew up under Huilan's care. Out of sympathy and pity for her situation, Huilan had long regarded her as her own daughter and even wanted to adopt her as her adopted daughter.

So, by chance, she drank the glass of wine and died of poisoning immediately.

Huilan's death made Xiao Chengzhou furious.

He mobilized all resources to investigate, and soon he found out the truth of the matter.

It turns out that all this was the work of the second wife Tang Yulan and the hostile gangs.

After learning that her conspiracy had been exposed, Second Wife Tang Yulan knew that she could not escape the disaster, so she took her daughter Tang Yining and fled the port city overnight and never returned.

The leader of the hostile force died silently in his own villa overnight.

Xiao Chengzhou's heart was filled with complicated emotions towards the culprit, Rohmer.

On the one hand, he hated her to the core because her betrayal and frame-up led to Huilan's innocent death.

On the other hand, he couldn't bear to kill her because of the friendship he had with his late brother Nancheng.

In the end, Xiao Chengzhou decided to secretly imprison her in the basement of the Xiao family manor, allowing her to reflect on her crimes there.

Five years later, she escaped due to a guard's negligence.

In order to take revenge on Xiao Chengzhou, she almost killed Xiao Mo again.

After failing, she fled all the way to a small town in the southwestern border.

As luck would have it, that was the time when Xu Shuqin was taken over by Aunt Mei and was about to be sold to Lame San from Dabao Village.

When Xiao Chengzhou learned that Xu Shuqin was persecuted by Lin Rou, he personally led people to the town. He not only rescued Xu Shuqin from Aunt Mei, but also successfully captured Hou Mai...

......

The two strolled through the garden, passing through a sea of ​​colorful flowers, and came to a wooden bench in the center.

Xiao Chengzhou slowed down, turned around and sat on the bench.

He waved to the bodyguard behind him: "Give me a cigarette."

When the bodyguard heard the order, he immediately took out an exquisite black cigarette case from the inside pocket of his shirt.

He opened the lid, and the silver hinges gleamed slightly in the sunlight, revealing a sense of understated luxury.

He took out a cigarette, pinched it lightly with his fingers to make sure the cigarette was straight and without creases, and then handed it respectfully to Xiao Chengzhou.

Xiao Chengzhou took the cigarette and put it in his mouth. The bodyguard then quickly took out a silver lighter from his other pocket and pressed it lightly. A cluster of blue flames swayed in the breeze.

He steadily brought the lighter close to the cigarette butt near Xiao Chengzhou's mouth, and the flame instantly ignited the tobacco.

Xiao Chengzhou held the cigarette, took a puff, and then exhaled a string of white smoke.

He turned to look at Xie Jincheng: "Would you like one too?"

Xie Jincheng shook his head and responded with a smile: "No, Qianhe and I are preparing for pregnancy, so I quit smoking."

As soon as he heard the word "preparing for pregnancy", Xiao Chengzhou's eyes immediately lit up.

"It's good to prepare for pregnancy! You really need to hurry up and give me a little grandson..."

They sat on a bench, basking in the sun.

Xiao Chengzhou held a cigarette in his hand and smoked silently, while Xie Jincheng sat beside him and sorted out his thoughts. However, he still had a few questions that he didn't understand.

He raised his head, looked at Xiao Chengzhou who was smoking, and asked, "Dad, I still don't quite understand why it was Hou Mai who was bought by Que San in the end? Why did she always live in Dabao Village as Qian He's mother?"

Xiao Chengzhou took a deep puff of smoke and then exhaled slowly. His eyes looked deep and complex in the smoke.

"That woman, Rohmer, is really an indestructible cockroach. It was because of her that Shuqin fell off a cliff and became a vegetable. And she herself also had mental problems because of a hit on her head."

He flicked the ash off his cigarette and continued, "I had planned to let her fend for herself in the deep mountains, but who would have thought that she would be picked up by that woman called Aunt Mei, who sold her to Lame San under the identity of Shuqin. I only found out about this a while ago."

"So that's it..."

After hearing this, Xie Jincheng frowned. He pondered for a moment and then asked, "There is one more thing I don't understand. Why did the Fourth Madam ask me to help find her sister instead of you? You have more connections in Hong Kong City. Wouldn't it be more convenient to find you?"

Xiao Chengzhou was silent for a while before he slowly spoke: "If I'm not mistaken, the girl she asked you to help find is not her sister, but her daughter."
