My Unexpected CEO Wife

Chapter 135: I'm a Man of Principle


Heh heh!

Housekeeper Li sneered disdainfully, "What makes you think you're worthy to speak to me like this?"

"Chen Xuan, you'd better obediently come with me to the Li Family. You have no room to resist!"

Chen Xuan chuckled coldly, and without another word, rushed up to Housekeeper Li and grabbed his neck.

"You'd better think clearly before you speak. Is Patriarch Li inviting me, or are you trying to threaten me?"

Housekeeper Li's face changed dramatically, and he hastily shouted, "Take him down, quickly!"

"Let's see who dares to move!"

Chen Xuan shouted coldly, and those guards stood in place, not daring to act rashly.

Lin Wanxi was burning with anxiety; this was going to blow things up!

She hurriedly said, "Chen Xuan, don't be reckless, let go of Housekeeper Li."

Chen Xuan coldly replied, "Words must match the reality! I'm someone who follows rules!"

"If I'm invited to the Li Family as a guest, there's no problem; I'd gladly go."

"But if you're here to threaten me, do you really think I'm a pushover that you can toy with at will?!"

As he finished speaking, he tightened his grip on Housekeeper Li's neck.

"I'll ask you one last time, is it an invitation, or an arrest?"

Chen Xuan wore a cold smile.

Housekeeper Li dared not be careless at this point, his life was in Chen Xuan's hands, and a smart man doesn't suffer in the moment.

He could only temporarily admit defeat and stammer out, "It's an invitation, you're invited over, invited..."

Chen Xuan nodded slightly and then released his hold, "Pay attention to your words in the future, don't use them incorrectly again."

"A single word's difference can not only change the meaning drastically but could also cost you your life instantly, understand?"

"Understood, understood..."

Housekeeper Li nodded quickly, feeling very aggrieved inside.

"Then let's go, don't keep Patriarch Li waiting too long. I do respect the elderly and care for the young."

Chen Xuan teased with a smile, heading outside.

Housekeeper Li snorted coldly inwardly, thinking you'll get what's coming to you at the Li Family, you won't be able to act wild anymore!

Watching Chen Xuan leave the company with Housekeeper Li, Lin Wanxi was both startled and afraid.

She didn't know if Chen Xuan could turn danger into safety and come back from the Li Family unharmed.

"Wanxi, what exactly happened?"

"Earlier, I saw Housekeeper Li taking Chen Xuan away, what's going on?"

Lin Zhiguo hurried into the office, his gaze uncertain.

"The Li Family intends to harm Chen Xuan, it's related to Li Zijiang and Sun Yongkang's deaths." Lin Wanxi's expression was complex, forcibly maintaining emotional stability.

Ah?

Lin Zhiguo was greatly shocked, "Could it be... that night it was Chen Xuan... impossible?"

"Did they get it wrong?"

Lin Wanxi had no mood to explain to her father, coldly saying, "Dad, the Li Family, being a prominent family in Zhonghai, what kind of conduct they usually exhibit, are you still unaware?"

"No matter if that incident has anything to do with Chen Xuan, as long as the Li Family believes it's related to him, they never talk about evidence, they only deal with it their own way!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhiguo's expression turned despondent, "Doesn't this mean Chen Xuan going to the Li Family this time is likely doomed?"

"Wanxi, we must find a way to rescue Chen Xuan! We can't just watch him head to the Li Family to die without doing anything!"

Lin Wanxi was urgently anxious, "I'm trying to think of a way, don't rush me, you're messing with my thoughts!"

Her hands kept rubbing, Lin Wanxi was restless.

"Got it! Chen Xuan has some ties with Director Wang Tao of the City Hall office."

"As long as we ask Director Wang to intervene and go to the Li Family Mansion, it should ensure Chen Xuan's safety!"

Once Lin Wanxi thought of this, she immediately left the office and drove to City Hall to find Wang Tao.

...

At that moment.

Chen Xuan followed Housekeeper Li to the Li Family Mansion.

Patriarch Li Yuanshou sat on the Taishi chair, exuding the lofty attitude of a superior overlooking the world.

Behind him stood a young man who resembled Li Zijiang slightly.

This person was Li Zijiang's elder brother, Li Ziang.

"Patriarch, I've brought Chen Xuan."

Housekeeper Li walked in to report, other matters not spoken to spare himself embarrassment.

Chen Xuan sat down directly, "Patriarch Li invited me over, what for?"

"Stand up! Did anyone let you sit?" Housekeeper Li shouted coldly.

Chen Xuan sneered, "I'm invited here as a guest, but you make me stand?

"Is this how the prestigious Li Family treats its guests?"

"Boy, don't be so damned arrogant!" Housekeeper Li shouted angrily, venting his earlier resentment.

Li Yuanshou waved slightly, indicating Housekeeper Li need not mind.

He stared coldly at Chen Xuan, "Recently, you had some conflict with my grandson, causing quite an unpleasant situation, didn't you?"

Chen Xuan chuckled lightly, "You're talking about Sun Yongkang, right? He brought his own unpleasantness."

Heh heh!

Li Yuanshou coldly laughed, "It seems you are quite arrogant, daring to be so presumptuous in front of me!"

"It's the same no matter who I'm facing! I'm not singling you out, and you, Patriarch Li, aren't that significant either." Chen Xuan smirked disdainfully.

"Arrogance!"

Li Ziang, standing behind Li Yuanshou, shouted coldly, "In my Li Family, you're not entitled to act wildly!"

"Kneel down when you speak! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

Chen Xuan chuckled, "And how would you be rude? Go ahead, let me hear."
