Mr.CEO’s Ex-wife Escapes Again
Chapter 227 - 227 227 Finally Took Off Her Mask By Myself

Chapter 227: Chapter 227 Finally Took Off Her Mask By Myself Chapter 227: Chapter 227 Finally Took Off Her Mask By Myself Lan Cuo stared blankly.

What did this mean? If she wasn’t his daughter, then who was she?

His gaze locked onto the man who had walked up to his daughter. It was at that moment that he saw the man reach out towards her face.

“Sheng Siyuan, what are you doing?”

“President!”

Almost simultaneously, the sound of Xu Guannan’s voice came from behind.

He was shocked, urgent, worried…

He even took a few steps forward, wanting to stop him, to think carefully before making this decision.

But it was no use.

The man, whose patience had been exhausted, finally tore the disguise mask off the woman after everything that had happened that night.

“Ow…”

The pain from being torn brought her to a slight reaction.

She whimpered.

However, even more shocking was the reaction of the people in the hall; they stared dumbfounded at the face abruptly revealed to them, their minds blasted by the revelation, unable to respond for a long time.

It was an incredibly beautiful face.

Even now, pale with abnormality, but her fine features and delicate contours were still evident.

Lan Yi wasn’t even comparable by a factor of ten.

“How could this be? Who is she?”

“Yeah, she’s actually not Lan Yi, then why did she impersonate her? Lan Yi is so ugly, isn’t her current face beautiful?”

“…”

The people throughout the hall, upon regaining their senses, showed expressions of disbelief.

They discussed and speculated…

The huge shock made them even forget the danger, including Lan Cuo.

“Who on earth is she?”

Blood streaming down his legs, he knelt on the ground, staring at the unfamiliar face and asking in astonishment and anger.

But he saw that the man didn’t answer, instead, upon tearing off the thin disguise mask and seeing her hands instinctively attempting to grasp her face from pain, he immediately reached out and caught her.

“Don’t move.”

His tone was gentle to the extreme.

That voice, completely different from the man who had just killed.

The woman couldn’t move, only struggling non-stop until the man reached out again to touch her face of his own accord.

She then leaned her face against him as if she had grasped a lifeline.

The man suddenly shuddered all over!

“Yin Hehe?”

“Ow…” She actually responded.

In an instant, the man knelt in front of her, feeling as if something in his chest had split open.

A torrent surged from within, shaking his whole body.

Even the most tough and indomitable men have a weakness in the depths of their hearts, and for the president of Shengshi Group, clearly, this woman was his Achilles’ heel.

Lan Cuo, realizing belatedly, finally understood something.

“She is… his ex-wife?”

“Yes!” Xu Guannan, holding a gun, stood in front of them and answered on their behalf.

“That year, your daughter ran away from her wedding and was saved by my wife along the way, but later, you used my wife’s life to threaten, and still successfully captured your daughter back, didn’t you?”

“But… but…”

Lan Cuo wanted to say, yet all these years, the name Lan Yi had been appearing abroad.

However, as he tried to continue, he found he had no more words to say.

Yes, back then, his daughter had actually already died.

He had her captured and handed over to the Ang Family, and on that night, Lan Yi committed suicide; he had even ordered people to collect her body.

How could a Lan Yi suddenly return now, and he had actually believed it?

“Lan Cuo, you never really cared who your daughter was, you only cared if the person was of use to you. Five years ago, the real Lan Yi was driven to her death by you, and five years later, my wife was captured back while posing as your daughter. What you valued was her ability and her name that was worth its weight in gold!”

“Do you really think you regarded her as your daughter? You didn’t, you were just thrilled to have gained a very valuable pawn,”

Xu Guannan ruthlessly pierced through the pretense of the hypocrite.

He laid bare his darkest side, denouncing him for his willingness to call a deer a horse and stop at nothing to serve his own interests.

Lan Cuo’s face turned green on the spot from the scolding.

But he dared not retort.

Because at this moment, his entire Tulan Society had fallen into the hands of the other, and his own legs had been broken.

Lan Cuo slowly closed his eyes.

“Xu Guannan, go inform the colonel that we can wrap things up here,”

Indeed, when Sheng Siyuan picked up Yin Hehe from the ground, enveloped once more by a surge of murderous intent, he only gave that one order.

In an instant, as the words fell, along with Xu Guannan firing a shot into the air.

“Bang!”

Lan Cuo, looking upwards, saw the buzzing sound dive straight down from above.

“Ahh—”

“Boom!”

A huge fireball rose into the air over the mountain top.

That night, the entire Tulan Society was destroyed, with the intense sounds of gunfire and the raging flames continuing until dawn without cease.

Come daylight, Guo Su from the capital also arrived with his people.

“President, the lieutenant just called and said that since Guo Su has arrived, he won’t make any more moves. After all, Henry has already died by his gun,”

Xu Guannan was on the phone when Sheng Siyuan sat in the hospital room, quietly gazing at the woman lying in the bed.

Without even blinking his eyes.

“Understood.”

In the face of this news, his only response was a mechanical reply.

After hanging up the phone, soon, the doctor, who had finally arrived for the day’s work, also entered the ward.

“Mr. Sheng, the blood test results for your wife have come back, and here… we still suggest that you send her to a specialized detox center, I’m sorry!”

Unexpectedly, these were the first words out of the doctor’s mouth.

The man who had been sitting stoically by the bed for several hours heard this and suddenly looked up.

“What do you mean? Why should she be sent there?”

“Mr. Sheng, according to the test results, your wife… has a very high level of ‘D’ substance in her blood. If I’m not mistaken, they must have injected it with a needle, and in a large dose at once,”

Seeing that the man still did not understand, the doctor dared to explain further.

The room fell silent.

In that momentary silence, the doctor stood as if the whole room had frozen over.

Deadly still!

“Mr. Sheng… Mr. Sheng?”

“Thud!”

Finally, there was a reaction.

The man sprang from his chair in one swift motion, and the next second, with a forceful sweep of the chair aside, he bolted out like a beast gone completely mad, his eyes bloodshot.

Before long, a black sedan roared away from the hospital.

—

The local police station.

Xu Guannan was here, already preparing to leave.

“Mr. Xu, three of Lan Cuo’s lieutenants have been killed, and one has escaped. That was a minor leader; he wasn’t of much significance,”

Guo Su personally reported to him during the handover, and seeing that he was about to leave, even made a point of bringing over a casualty list from the Tulan Society.

That person had sought out Guo Su just a few days ago.

Of course, now to dissociate himself, he would certainly do his utmost to handle this matter.

Xu Guannan flipped through the list.

“What about his family members? Why don’t I see them on the list?”

He suddenly asked.
