Supreme Heir Son-in-law

After following Xu Shuang to the surveillance room, Xu Ke was immediately captivated by the scene before him.

Rather than calling this a surveillance room, it would be more apt to describe it as a special internet cafe.

There were so many computers, it looked like there must be over a hundred of them.

"I never expected that General Manager Xu had such refined interests, to actually open an internet cafe on the second floor of the company that looks so decent."

When Xu Ke said this, Xu Shuang’s face turned red immediately. This was just some of his personal hobbies. He liked surfing the internet, so he simply opened an internet cafe in his company.

Usually, it was only open to company employees or special guests. He never thought of opening it to the public.

"General Manager Xu, you’re exaggerating, this is just a small personal hobby of mine. I don’t like drinking or smoking, I just enjoy playing computer games occasionally."

Hearing Xu Shuang’s explanation, Xu Ke wasn’t terribly surprised.

Everyone has their own hobbies, some people like clubbing, others like bar hopping.

It’s normal for someone like Xu Shuang to enjoy gaming.

Xu Ke also liked surfing the internet when he had nothing to do, it helped relieve the stress of everyday life.

"Please, General Manager Xu, let us see the footage as soon as possible." Xu Ke was getting a bit impatient.

Xu Shuang immediately brought Xu Ke to a few computers, where technicians were intently watching the screens.

"General Manager Xu, these are the surveillance clips from our company. I wonder which day’s footage you would like to review?"

As soon as Xu Shuang said this, Xu Ke began to recall the time and events of that day.

He remembered that Wang Lishan seemed to appear in the afternoon, and it was around that time he was having dinner with Xiao Keyi.

"Let’s set the time to two days ago, from noon to afternoon. I wonder if there’s surveillance in the private room."

Listening to Xu Ke’s words, Xu Shuang started to feel troubled.

There was indeed surveillance in the private rooms, but they used pinhole cameras due to security concerns.

But if this information got out, it would have a huge impact on their restaurant.

Those who dined there were either rich or influential, and they valued their reputation and privacy very much.

Most who entered the private rooms were there for business or personal matters.

Xu Shuang knew all about this, which is why he was especially cautious regarding surveillance.

"The private rooms do have surveillance, but we normally don’t make this public. However, since it’s your request, General Manager Xu, we can let you view it. But you must promise not to let this information leak, or it would be devastating for our company."

Xu Ke had initially asked casually, not expecting there to actually be surveillance in the private rooms.

But hearing Xu Shuang’s explanation, it turns out there really was surveillance.

However, he understood that for such a high-profile restaurant, the clientele was generally upper-class, and their safety had to be ensured.

On the one hand, they must not realize they were being monitored, and on the other hand, their safety had to be assured, making this a finely balanced situation.

Xu Shuang’s handling of the matter was indeed the best of both worlds. If not for his visit this time, he wouldn’t have known.

"General Manager Xu, rest assured, I will not let this matter leak. If any negative impact arises from this, the Xu Group will cover all subsequent losses."

Xu Ke’s words were very clear; just let me see what’s going on, and I’ll take full responsibility.

Xu Ke’s confidence immediately eased Xu Shuang’s worries.

With the Xu Group as their backing, Xu Shuang’s confidence was instantly boosted.

Following Xu Ke’s request, Xu Shuang directly displayed the footage of the private room where Wang Lishan was at the time.

Wang Lishan probably never dreamed that his precautions while in the private room would all come to naught.

But now all his schemes were foiled, and all conversations with Murong Hai were recorded.

As soon as the surveillance footage played, Xu Ke immediately spotted Wang Lishan.

The person sitting opposite Wang Lishan was someone Xu Ke also recognized; during his previous investigations, he remembered him as the head of the security company, Murong Hai.

Upon seeing these two, Xu Ke instantly understood.

It seemed his suspicions were correct; Murong Hai was the person in charge behind the scenes, while the true employer was indeed Wang Lishan.

This guy indeed planned to conduct a major conspiracy behind the scenes, and his appearance disrupted him.

Xu Ke suddenly felt a chill, thinking that if it weren’t for the old man’s poor health, which led to him taking over, Wang Lishan’s plan might never be discovered, putting the Xu Group at great risk?

Xu Ke absolutely couldn’t let such a thing happen. He couldn’t let his grandfather’s lifetime of efforts be squandered for others to benefit from.

Even though the footage couldn’t capture their conversation, it didn’t stop Xu Ke from understanding the true situation.

From their gestures and exchanges, Xu Ke quickly detected that Wang Lishan handed Murong Hai a photo.

Judging from the back of the person on the photo, Xu Ke could roughly ascertain it was a picture of Xiao Keyi.

"Keyi, this guy is the real culprit behind it all, he’s the one targeting you."

Watching the images on the computer, Xiao Keyi was filled with rage.

It was all because of this guy that she had recently been confined to her home, wasting all that valuable time.

She didn’t even know how many places she could have traveled to in that time, or how many delicacies she could have enjoyed.

"Xu Ke, you must help me take this guy down. I get so annoyed just looking at him now."

Now that they had the evidence, Xu Ke’s next step was to take on Wang Lishan.

"Don’t worry, Keyi. Leave this to me. Before dealing with Wang Lishan, we need to handle Murong Hai first."

The dragon’s scale was touched; touching it means death. Murong Hai knew exactly whom he was supposed to capture—Xu Ke’s girlfriend—and yet dared to take the job.

By doing so, he was completely disregarding Xu Ke, which was something Xu Ke couldn’t tolerate. No matter what, he couldn’t let Murong Hai get away.

Seeing Xu Ke and his companion, Xu Shuang suddenly felt redundant.

He realized that this matter was not as simple as it seemed and was beyond his capacity to be involved in.

However, he was particularly eager to build bridges and establish connections with Xu Ke, seeing it as a rare opportunity.

Missing this chance, there wouldn’t be another opportunity. His future prospects depended on his performance this time.
