Chapter 598
"How's the investigation going? Did you get the answers you wanted? Wu Xie~"
"The information you gave me is indeed very detailed, and everything about it is exactly what I have experienced. But when you tell me this, you are probably not just saying it on the surface. You are telling me lies to pity me for being deceived my whole life and now I have to be deceived by this last straw!"
Wu Xie sat quietly alone in a corner of the coffee shop. Across from him was a man whose face was completely hidden by a pot of ornamental plants, making it difficult for outsiders to see his face. The pot of plants was like a barrier. To outsiders, it seemed that there was only one person in the corner, but there were two different voices.
There were some items on the table. Apart from the untouched cup of coffee in front of Wu Xie and the coffee cup that had been pushed aside in disdain, there was only a thin booklet left. The booklet looked a little old, as if it had been read many times.
"Wu Xie, I have told you the truth you have been pursuing, and I have also told you the whereabouts of your third uncle. Isn't this sincere enough for me to do this?" The man opposite suddenly spoke. His voice was a little low, but seemed somewhat familiar.
Wu Xie slowly raised his head and gazed at the potted plant, as if he could see through it to the person opposite. He was silent for a moment, then said, "So? The Wu family is gone. My second uncle's last words to me were to live well and not get involved in anything. Xiaohua also told me that from now on, I only need to live according to my own wishes. No one can force me to take a certain path or start a certain chess game anymore."
His words revealed a sense of fatigue and helplessness, as if after going through so many things, he was tired of it all.
Wu Xie folded his arms, leaning against the wall behind him, looking at the man opposite with a sarcastic smile on his face.
"Really? Then you don't care about your brother anymore? Even if he only stayed with me for a short time, he is still a puppet under my command. There are only two paths for him to take with me. One is to follow me, and the other is..."
The man stood up, approached Wu Xie, and said provocatively: "Die! Even if you die, you have to create value for me, so that it can be considered a worthy death!"
Wu Xie couldn't hold it in any longer and clenched his fist, "You despicable thing! No wonder your world doesn't welcome you and lets you run to someone else's world to stir up trouble!"
Wu Xie's attacks were like tickling to him, and he could even remain calm in the face of Wu Xie's outrageous remarks.
"Wu Xie, do you think these two sentences of yours can anger me? You're too pathetic! I've been through all these years and have seen all sorts of ups and downs. How can you possibly hurt me with these few harmless words of yours?"
Wu Xie shrugged indifferently, "Originally, I didn't expect that what I just said could anger an old man like you."
"Fatty Wang will understand me! Isn't that right? I am his best brother!" Although he said that he had no ability, he was always entangled and struggling in his heart.
His hands were clenched into fists, his nails digging deep into his flesh, yet he was completely unaware of it. This detail revealed his true feelings and formed a sharp contrast with his outward calm.
After observing Wu Xie's expression and exploring his inner thoughts, the man couldn't help but sigh, saying that he had misjudged him. He had originally thought that Wu Xie would be a man of conscience in the Wu family's sinful environment, but now it seemed that Wu Xie had not only inherited the Wu family's coldness and ruthlessness, but even surpassed them.
Before the man stood up and left, he glanced back at Wu Xie, who was sipping his coffee. Wu Xie also raised his head, eyebrows raised provocatively, his eyes filled with disdain and indifference. This eye contact seemed to be the final battle between the two, neither willing to give in.
