The host ruthlessly crushes scum in the small world

Chapter 203 Delicate and Frail Jin VS Innocent Cannon Fodder 17

Meanwhile, Xiao's parents and Xiao Jinzhou, who had escaped, were hiding in a small, dilapidated house. Xiao's father was looking at his phone, while Xiao's mother was still maintaining her previous image as a wealthy woman, refusing to sit on the wooden bench.

Xiao Jinzhou seemed unable to accept it. After all, he had been unaware of these matters since he first got involved in company affairs. He had only thought it was due to his own incompetence, but he never imagined that he hadn't even grasped the company's top secrets.

Looking at his composed father, Xiao Jinzhou seemed to have made up his mind about something.

Unaware of Xiao Jinzhou's thoughts, Xiao's father was searching for anyone who could help the Xiao Corporation, or anyone who could still assist them.

But everyone wasn't stupid; they already knew the police were investigating the Xiao family, and that the Xiao family had already fled, so no one answered Xiao's father's calls.

It wasn't until Xiao's father made a phone call that the other party finally answered.

"Please help me! If I can turn things around this time, I'll definitely get what you want!"

Mr. Xiao's words were full of temptation, but the other party clearly wasn't buying it and remained silent for a long time.

Meanwhile, at the airport not far away, An Jiali looked at the number on her phone, smiled contemptuously, and then continued speaking.

"Chairman Xiao, what you're saying is so unreliable. Everyone knows what Chairman Xiao's current situation is!"

Hearing the obvious sarcasm in her voice, Mr. Xiao could only clench his fists tightly. But now was clearly not the time to be angry; he still needed her help.

"Director An, haven't we cooperated before? If something happens to me, you won't be able to explain it to me, will you?"

An Jiali let out a soft "ah".

"Yes, this is difficult to explain. What should I do?"

Mr. Xiao's furrowed brows relaxed slightly, realizing that An Jiali was indeed worried about how to explain things when she returned, so he spoke up decisively.

"As long as you help me this time, our cooperation can continue. After all, I'm not without ability to manage the Xiao family business to its current state!"

Hearing the smug tone of Xiao's father on the phone, and glancing at the airport's large screen, An Jiali calculated the time briefly before speaking.

"But you're in this state, how can I help you? Where would I get such great abilities?"

"You don't! Your boss definitely does!"

"Okay, I'll ask my boss!"

As the minutes ticked by, Xiao's father watched anxiously as An Jiali failed to call. He paced back and forth in the dilapidated house, finally losing his patience and making the call himself.

"Sorry, I forgot to call you back. My boss said that this is something we can't and shouldn't interfere with!"

Hearing An Jiali's lazy voice, Xiao's father simply closed his eyes tightly.

"Don't forget we signed a contract. If I get investigated, it might not be so easy for you to continue the project!"

"Tsk!"

The person on the other end seemed to be getting impatient, but quickly continued speaking.

"Yes, if Chairman Xiao hadn't mentioned the contract, I wouldn't have remembered. The contract states that whichever party causes the loss should compensate for it! Wasn't this project stopped because of your Xiao Group?"

Mr. Xiao didn't expect An Jiali to say that, but the voice continued to come from the phone.

"Logically speaking, Chairman Xiao should compensate our group for some of the losses!"

Hearing the clearly amused voice coming from the microphone, Mr. Xiao was so angry that he almost smashed his phone. When had he ever been treated like this before!

"However, it seems Chairman Xiao can't offer compensation now, so we won't pursue the matter further; let's consider this a perfect ending to this cooperation!"

"Don't forget, all those construction materials and equipment were sourced from your side!"

Xiao's father spoke in a sinister tone, believing he had evidence that An Jiali had no choice but to help him, but An Jiali's voice instantly shattered his hopes.

"Yes, we found them, but in the end, wasn't it your own son who made the decision? Didn't you know there was something wrong with that? Or were you doing it on purpose?"

There seemed to be some noise coming from An Jiali's direction; Xiao's father, with his keen senses, recognized it as an airport announcement.

"Are you at the airport?"

"Yes, I'm at the airport. There's nothing left for me to stay here. Goodbye, Mr. Xiao!"

After saying that, the call was disconnected, and An Jiali immediately broke the SIM card in half and threw it in the trash can before following the crowd toward the boarding gate.

However, Mr. Xiao was completely isolated and helpless. Fortunately, he had made plans beforehand, and his loyal assistant had brought two cars. Mr. Xiao was planning to leave with his wife and son.

But Xiao Jinzhou simply snatched the car keys and drove away without paying any attention to his parents!

"Son! Son! What is he trying to do?!"

Xiao's mother tried to chase after him, but after a few steps she tripped and fell to the ground. She could only helplessly watch her son drive away. Xiao's father had no idea what his son was thinking.

They had no choice but to pull Xiao's mother in another direction. After all, in his heart, things could only get better if he was still alive. However, on the way to the airport, in his panic, they collided with a large truck, and Xiao's parents were knocked unconscious on the spot.

When Xiao's parents woke up, they found their bedsides surrounded by police officers. Xiao's father knew he was likely doomed, but his hopes were pinned on Xiao Jinzhou, who had already escaped.

But Xiao Jinzhou thought about all of this in the dilapidated house. When did he and the Xiao family become like this, feeling restricted and unsuccessful at every turn?

Just then, Xiao Jinzhou thought of someone: Lin Chuyun. Everything started when Lin Chuyun returned, especially after he overheard Song Xinhan talking to herself. He hadn't heard clearly, but he heard Lin Chuyun ask, "How is Lin Chuyun still alive?"

"Will everything go back to normal if you die?!"

Xiao Jinzhou, who was driving, had bloodshot eyes, but he didn't know what to do. He could only go to the Lin family first, but found that no one was there!

"Where will you go? Duan Qing'an?"

Xiao Jinzhou immediately changed direction. Ever since he learned of Duan Qing'an's existence, Xiao Jinzhou had already investigated Duan Qing'an, so he easily found Duan Qing'an's residence.

However, Duan Qingan had already changed locations when Lin Chuyun was feeling unwell, renting a place closer to the hospital. Unfortunately, Duan Qingan happened to be coming back today to pick up some things.

Lin Chuyun hadn't left the house for days, and now that she finally had the chance, she naturally wanted to go out for a walk. However, Duan Qing'an only told Lin Chuyun to wait in the car while he went to get his things before accompanying her out for a walk.

Unexpectedly, on this trip, Duan Qingan encountered Xiao Jinzhou!
