The Xiao Family Courtyard!
When Su Chen arrived, Elder Xiao was in the dining room eating breakfast. Sitting beside him was a figure Su Chen found rather unexpected.
"Brother Cheen~ why are you back? Didn't you say it would take at least a month or two?"
Su Chen hadn't expected Xiao Chen to be back in the Imperial Capital. He wondered if the business on Zheng Island was finished; after all, less than half a month had passed.
Just as Su Chen was wondering if something had gone wrong on Zheng Island, Xiao Chen spoke up.
"The project at the Zheng Island industrial park has entered a top-secret phase. The higher-ups sent in a professional security and confidentiality department to take over. It wasn't appropriate for me to stay there any longer."
Su Chen nodded thoughtfully at his words. He knew that while Xiao Chen's men were combat-hardened elites, they lacked experience when it came to maintaining secrecy.
