When the killer woke up again, he was in a blindingly bright place. The memories before he fainted instantly flooded into his brain. Was he electrocuted?

He struggled violently, but found that his hands were handcuffed and he was fixed to a stool. The layout of the room looked like an interrogation room.

It's over, I was caught by the police.

As a killer, he had thought about dying on a mission or in revenge. The only thing he hadn't thought about was being punished by the people.

The sound of a door opening was heard, and the killer looked at the people coming in. One of them looked very similar to the person he was fighting with.

"It's you!"

"Ha! I thought I would fail one day, but I didn't expect my luck to be so bad today."

"Is he your target?" Chu Hanting didn't waste any words and asked directly.

"Yeah!" The killer said nonchalantly, "If you guys hadn't been so lucky and swapped masks, I would have succeeded long ago."

He glanced at Su Mu next to him, "So the employer wants someone so pretty, and he told me that she must be alive. Could it be that he has set his sights on you?"

Su Mu had a cold expression and did not respond to his dirty words. Instead, he asked directly, "Who is your employer?"

The killer smiled nonchalantly, "Even if I'm caught, I still have professional ethics. How could I tell you the information of my employer?"

Su Mu smiled coldly, "You are already a prisoner, is there any need to guard those things? Even if you insist on not betraying your employer, he can't save you. On the contrary, if you plead guilty with a good attitude, you may be able to get a reduced sentence."

"With the things I've done, I'd be dead if I fell into the hands of the police, so you can't threaten me or bribe me."

"Also, in our line of work, we never ask about the identity of the employer, but since you are so pretty, I can make an exception and tell you that the man is a bit old."

At this time, someone pushed the door open and came in, "I'm a police officer, here to take the suspect away."

Su Mu and Chu Hanting reluctantly stepped aside and watched the killer being taken away, but they began to think secretly in their hearts.

"He looks quite old. Could it be that old guy Su Yuanshan?" Su Mu frowned and asked in confusion.

Chu Hanting denied this guess: "It shouldn't be. The Su family is now busy cooperating with the Smith family. It was the drunkard in the bar last time who pulled you to play the piano for him."

Su Mu recalled and he remembered that it was the day when he just met Chu Hanting in this life and officially worked at the Moonlight Bar for the first time.

"The Su family cooperated with that person? That's really a meeting of unscrupulous businessmen, with no good intentions."

Chu Hanting smiled, touched Su Mu's face, and smoothed his hair for him. "You really understand Su Yuanshan's character. He is really up to no good. He is planning to steal business from the Chu Group."

"Ah? How dare he! I don't know much about the Smith family, but with the strength of the Su family, they are no match for the Chu Group, right?"

"Besides, when the Su family was on the verge of bankruptcy, it was the Chu family who helped him. How could he turn against them so quickly?"

"It's really worthy of him."

As shameless as ever.

But after thinking about it carefully, Su Mu felt something was wrong.

"A Ting, I always feel like there's something wrong. You know, in my last life, it was Su Yuanshan who sent me to marry you. After the marriage, he criticized you for all your shortcomings in front of me and asked me to steal the secrets of your Chu Group. All of this was done by Su Yuanshan."

"But when I think about it carefully in this life, I feel that something is wrong. Why would Su Yuanshan want to harm the Chu family? Even if he asked me to curry favor with you, wouldn't it be more beneficial to the Su family?"

"Besides, does the Su family have the courage and strength to target the Chu Group? I don't think Su Yuanshan has the guts," Su Mu concluded with sonorous words, "unless he has someone to rely on."

Chu Hanting vaguely agreed with what Su Mu said.

"By the way, what did you want to say just now?"

Before interrogating the killer, Chu Hanting was interrupted just after saying a word. Su Mu felt that what Chu Hanting wanted to say was very important.

Chu Hanting leaned close to Su Mu's ear and said, "Go back and tell him. There are too many people here and there are too many eyes." He was afraid that there might be ears on the other side of the wall.

After all, it involves things from the past life, and if someone hears it, there will be trouble.

After returning to the hotel, Chu Hanting confirmed that there was no bug in the room and then talked to Su Mu about it.

"In fact, before I died in my previous life, I received a secret letter from Europe. But I didn't have time to check it later, so..."

Even if Chu Hanting didn't say it, Su Mu understood that Chu Hanting was reborn along with his own rebirth.

"Then who is the employer that the killer mentioned today?" If it wasn't Su Yuanshan, Su Mu couldn't think of anyone else for the time being.

"I have a guess," said Chu Hanting.

“Soon after I was forced to resign as the president of Chu, I was replaced by a young CEO.”

"At first, my attention was focused on taking care of you. After all, after you got into trouble, I put almost all my energy into the hospital, which resulted in me knowing almost nothing about Chu's dynamics."

"It was during that period that Chu experienced a change in ownership."

"Later, I sent someone to investigate the Chu Group and found that a huge amount of money mysteriously disappeared from the group every month, and the recipients of the money were overseas."

"I was unable to find out who it was in my previous life." He had no intention of finding out and just wanted to take good care of Su Mu.

"But I have met the new CEO of Chu Corporation. His eyebrows and eyes look a bit like my deceased second uncle."

"You have a second uncle?" Su Mu was surprised. In his two lives, he only knew that there was only one old man Chu in the Chu family, and he had never heard that Chu Hanting's grandfather had brothers.

"Yes, even among the Chu family, most of those who know about it are elderly people, and the younger generation of the Chu family hardly know about it."

"I didn't even know about it at first. It was only when my second uncle came back to the Chu family during my birthday party that I found out after I overheard my grandfather and second uncle arguing outside the study."

Su Mu frowned, "So you suspect that today's killer was arranged by the man who looks like your second uncle?"

"No, I suspect that my second uncle might still be alive," Chu Hanting's expression suddenly became serious.

"Oh, yes, the man today said he was an older man," Su Mu stroked his chin and thought, "Does your second uncle have a bad relationship with your grandfather?"

"I only overheard that he is my great-grandfather's illegitimate son. As for the rest, I will ask my grandfather for the details when we return to the capital."

"Well, it feels like things are getting more and more confusing. In my previous life, I naively thought that Su Yuanshan favored Suning and couldn't bear to see me doing well, so he also wanted to destroy our relationship. But now that I think about it, it seems like there is an invisible force behind everything."

Su Mu raised his eyes to look at Chu Hanting, and said confidently: "I now even suspect that the reason I was pushed out to marry you was a conspiracy in itself, and not a substitute marriage for Su Ning as I thought."
