Shao Haicheng’s expression turned sour drastically. He hurriedly called out to the Metahumans around him. “Quick, save my parents!”
While he didn’t have many good qualities as a human, he was well known for being filial.
He was still worried after telling the Metahumans to help, so he rushed back himself. However, before he could get into the car, a voice sounded behind him.
“Shao Haicheng.”
The middle-aged man, who had not been called by his name for a long time, felt extremely displeased.
Shao Haicheng was already having a headache when all the problems happened at the same time, and he still needed to find out what happened at the manor. He looked at the man with anger, but he was stunned.
The person who approached him was powerfully built and there were four people behind him, and all of them looked similarly impressive.
“You are?”
The person who had brought them here hurried forward and whispered into his ear.
Shao Haicheng couldn’t help but take a deep breath. The way he looked at them immediately changed.
However, the man didn’t care about how fast his expression changed. He only looked at the factory where people came and went and then looked at the rolling smoke in the air.
“Do you want to know who did these?”
“Who?” Shao Haicheng had yet to express his stance when the other party started talking about something else, but it was something that he cared about the most. He quickly asked in a deep voice, “What do you know?”
“I can tell you who did this, but you, all of you, including all these people, and that factory over there will belong to me!”
“What?!” Shao Haicheng was stunned for a moment before he almost laughed out of anger. However, he could manipulate lightning, so he didn’t dare to cross him. However, he could still feel the anger burning in his heart.
Although they had lost half of their supplies, including the ever-important canned meat, there were still many food factories in this place.
Among them were an instant noodle factory, a fruit canning factory, a biscuit and pastry factory, and a nutrition and health care factory that produced milk powder, oatmeal, lotus root powder, and protein powder. Although these factories didn’t have as much stock as the meat canning factory, the total was still quite impressive. They were all piled up in a large underground warehouse. Some factories still had a lot of raw materials that could be processed.
Was he dreaming?
Shi Shaochen smiled. “Don’t be nervous. 1 believe that you’ll choose to do as I say. Not only can I find the real culprit for you, you might even find something unexpected.”
“Something unexpected?” Shao Haicheng’s eyes flashed.
“Have you ever thought about how your entire warehouse of supplies disappeared overnight, or in just a few minutes? Who could do all this under the watchful eyes of so many guards?”
In reality, even though Shi Shaochen already had some understanding of Tang Susu, he was still shocked. He still didn’t know what tricks she had used this time.
After all, if it were him, he wouldn’t have the confidence to succeed in all of this in such a short period.
Shao Haicheng’s eyes narrowed as he immediately invited him to get into the car. There was a simple table in the car, and he made a cup of the best Longjing Tea for him. He put on a very respectful attitude, but he didn’t mention his request.
Shi Shaochen’s smiled as he sipped the wine.
He drank it in a relaxed manner, as if he was tasting tea with a trace of contentment.
Shao Haicheng also drank some tea, trying to at least suppress the man’s aura. He didn’t believe that he could not suppress this young man who looked only to be in his early twenties!
However, when he put down his teacup, he realized that Shi Shaochen was still drinking without a care in the world. He couldn’t help but feel a little impatient.
The longer the time dragged on, the harder it would be to trace back the lost supplies. It had been over ten hours since last night. He had gathered everyone, but they had found none suspicious trace at all.
It was getting stranger and more terrifying!
If he could not find out the thief and how the supplies were stolen, he couldn’t imagine what would happen to the remaining supplies.
His only clue was the man in front of him.
Shao Haicheng couldn’t help but casually say, “What unexpected find are you talking about?”
“Mr. Shao, does that mean you’re agreeing to my request?” Shi Shaochen put down his teacup. He had to admit that Tang Susu had done something good. She had allowed him to get a great bargain and achieve some of his goals effortlessly.
“How that’ll go will depend on whether the things you’re offering have any value.”
Shi Shaochen scoffed. As expected of a shrewd old man like him, he couldn’t be bothered to speak to him in such a veiled manner anymore..
