Chapter 835 - If You Don’t Want Anyone to Find Out, Don’t Do It in the First Place

The Xia Family got in touch with the Gu Family members who were planning to discuss the purchase of that plot of land. However, Xia Haolin suddenly received an express parcel that was sent to his mistress living in the small mansion in the Southern suburbs.

Ever since he received the call, Xia Haolin’s right eyelid had been twitching continuously, and he was overwhelmed with an ominous feeling.

Due to the fact that he had ended up with an illegitimate daughter after having an illicit affair with Xia Ruya’s mother, he had been very careful with his extramarital affairs. No one had found out about them at all even after several years.

Could it be that his affair had been exposed!?!

The thought of his mistress’ identity made him feel hopeless. If the Xia Family were to find out about their affair, the Xia Family and Chen Family’s relationship would be over. He was afraid… that they might not even be able to continue being in-laws…

The Xia Family could not afford to lose their connection to the Chen Family yet.

Besides… now that they were in dire straits, they could not be involved in any scandals either. Otherwise, they would be in deep trouble.

Xia Haolin then returned to the Xia Family mansion and hurriedly scrambled back into the study.

After locking the door, he opened the parcel without hesitation, only to realize that it was no bigger than his palm. However, the smaller it was… the more dangerous and suspicious.

After opening the parcel, he opened the box and got a great shock at the instant he saw the photos. He quickly put the lid back on and checked if the door was locked. Still feeling worried, he quickly drew the curtains to make sure they were shut.

He then thumped himself down on the seat, feeling weak and sluggish.

He grabbed the photos and began looking through them, only to discover that they were largely explicit. His hands began to tremble and he broke out in cold sweat.

When he saw the last photo, he was greeted with the words—”If you don’t want others to find out, don’t do it in the first place!”

At this moment, his mobile phone began to ring, and the sound of his ringtone was amplified in the soundproof room. The silence of the background made the ringtone sound strangely dull and monotonous. His heart pounded and he whipped out his mobile phone.

The number displayed on the screen belonged to the overseas tycoon who had been discussing with him about that plot of land. After a moment of hesitation, he picked up.

Xia Haolin was dumbfounded, for he did not think of that at all.

Mr. Li laughed smugly and exclaimed, “Brother Xia, don’t get angry! I just want to buy your family’s land. I’m not interested in exposing your secret. Men… can understand the needs of other men…”

Mr. Li exclaimed, “Hey! Brother Xia, I’m very sincere. We’ve been friends for so long. Why would I harm you?”
