Chapter 1986 Seen Through
- "You hold most of the Xiao Family's piers, casinos, and entertainment centers, and now, you're the only child of the family even though you were adopted. He must be on guard against you, but he's been quiet lately. Too quiet. I think he's up to something. Are you sure he said nothing to you?"
- Xiao Cheng knew something must have happened back when his sister called him, so he had made his arrangements before the explosion happened. Xiao Si was trying to get his hands on the whole family's wealth, and he was jealous of Xiao Cheng because of how great Old Mr. Xiao treated him. Right after Xiao Cheng went missing, Xiao Si went on a search and took a lot of territory for himself behind Old Mr. Xiao's back. That crossed the Patriarch's line.
- The Patriarch was a strict man in some sense. He didn't mind giving his adopted kids some gifts, but he would never allow the kids to cross the line. Xiao Cheng knew how these two men worked, so he had asked his own men to keep an eye on Xiao Si before he got into an accident, and to gather all the evidence of Xiao Si's betrayal.
