illicit relationship

Dali was currently being tied to the X-shaped wood. Xiao Tian's underlings immediately dragged him to the underground prison after arriving at their base.

They also placed a wooden chair in front of him because Xiao Tian would torture Dali later.

Like before, Dali did not do anything.

He even did not try to fight back when they dragged him to their base or tied him to the X-shaped wood as if he had already died.

He also did not ask who they were or who ordered them to drag him to an underground prison.

Yes, he let them do whatever he wanted to his body!

Dali no longer had the will to live.

His life had shattered into pieces when Jie and the others kicked him out of the Kindred Hearts Orphanage, so he let them do whatever they wanted.

"Damn it! I feel like we're going to torture human doll!" one of Xiao Tian's underlings was unhappy.

"Yes. This is boring!" his other underling added.

Normally, their enemies would be terrified and beg to be released when Xiao Tian's underlings took them to the underground prison because they knew they would be tortured.

It always made his underlings excited when they did that. That was why most of his underlings loved torturing people.

However, Dali was different. He did not scream or beg to be released. He let them do whatever they wanted and only stared at them with his dead eyes.

"I suddenly want to know what had happened to him earlier?" one of Xiao Tian's underlings uttered, "If I had known who did this to him, I would have beaten that person to death because that person had ruined our fun."

"Huft! I'm sure our leader will be disappointed later." The red-haired woman uttered.

Not long after that, Xiao Tian stepped into the underground prison. He was not alone because Mizu and Chun Hua were with him.

'Hmm?'

He was shocked when he saw Dali's expression.

He turned his head to look at his underlings. "Did you do something to him earlier?"

"No, leader. We still haven't done anything to him." His underlings began explaining everything.

Xiao Tian looked at Dali and uttered, "Dali, do you still remember me?"

Dali did not answer and only looked at him with his dead eyes. Of course, he still remembered him, but he no longer cared about Xiao Tian now.

His life had been ruined now, so there was no point getting angry at Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tian looked at his underlings and uttered, "Whip him!"

*kuh-CHHHH…

The sound of the lashing reverberated in the underground prison.

His underlings whipped Dali many times, but he did not scream even once, as if he did not feel any pain.

Xiao Tian had tried many methods, but Dali still did not scream or say a single word, as if he was mute.

'This is wasting my time.'

Dali was already like an empty shell, so there was no point in torturing him.

For this reason, Xiao Tian ordered his underlings to throw Dali into the forest because he did not want to waste his time anymore.

----

Xiao Tian was currently in a café alone. He immediately went to a café after leaving his gang.

'But it seems like Cao Song is related to Jun and Dehui.'

He had taken revenge on Dali, so he began to think of a way to teach Cao Song a lesson because he believed Cao Song was related to Jun and Dehui.

'Should I ask professor Ruanyi to hack his company?'

He suddenly had the intention of messing up Cao Song's company.

He was someone who disliked fight because his dreams were only to spend time with his women and make his predecessor's dream come true.

But he was a vengeful person and would not forgive someone who had caused trouble for him easily.

That was why he wanted to teach Cao Song a lesson. As he was deep in thought, something unexpected happened.

A gorgeous lady suddenly sat on his sofa!

Yes, she suddenly sat on the opposite side of him!

The young lady was about twenty-six years old. She had purple hair and eyes. Her large eyes were quick-witted, and her red lips were bright-colored.

Xiao Tian was startled.

'Hmm? Why is she sitting here? Have we met before?'

He had no idea as to why a gorgeous lady suddenly sat in front of him.

"Lady, why are you sitting here? Do we know each other?" he asked curiously.

"No. This is our first meeting." The gorgeous lady responded, "You are Xiao Tian, right?"

"Yes, I'm Xiao Tian. Who are you?" he threw another question.

"I'm Cao Zhilan." Cao Zhilan introduced herself. "I'm Cao Song's elder sister."

Xiao Tian's expression changed when she introduced herself as Cao Song's elder sister because he thought she would do something to him.

"You don't need to put your guard up because I have no intention of doing bad things to you; instead, I want to ask you to cooperate with me on something." She knew why he put his guard up after she introduced herself because she knew what her brother had done to Kindred Hearts Orphanage.

"What makes you think I will believe your words? You are my enemy's elder sister, so there is a possibility that you would attack me later." He did not believe her words immediately because only a fool would do that.

"What if I said I was fighting my younger brother for a position in our family company? Does this still make you suspicious of me?" she really had no intention of doing bad things to him because she only wanted to snatch her younger brother's position.

Even though she was older and smarter than Cao Song, but her father chose her brother to inherit his position because she was a woman.

It was unfair!

She could not accept it and did not want to accept it.

Her father should not choose someone to inherit his position based on gender because what important in business were skills and mindset.

That was why she wanted to cooperate with Xiao Tian because he had a bad relationship with her brother.

Yes, she wanted to take advantage of the situation!

Xiao Tian was a genius in business and also from an upper-class family, so she believed he could help her.

He paid attention to her carefully, trying to read her facial expression.

'Is she telling the truth?'

He could understand why she wanted to cooperate with him if she told the truth because inheritance could ruin a family.

He was even kicked out of the Xiao and Ye families because of inheritance. Of course, he was aware that she tried to use him.

However, he could use this as an opportunity to teach Cao Song a lesson. It could be said it was a win-win situation for them.

Even though he tried to read her facial expression, but he was not God, so he could not tell if she was telling the truth or not.

Cao Zhilan kept convincing him that she was not lying. She even said she would reward him if she managed to snatch her brother's position.

She took her business card and placed it on the table. "This is my private number. Call me if you agree to cooperate with me."

She left after saying that.
