Transmigrated as the fake young master, I'll beat up the scumbags and b*tches

Chapter 130: Pawn

Han ShuYi sat at his desk, his expression cold and stern, eyes closed as he carefully recalled the events of the day.

But what shook him the most was discovering that HuMing wasn't actually the son of that couple!

He had initially thought that he could use the couple to hold leverage over HuMing and eventually drive him out of the house. Yet today's events had caught him off guard.

Not only was his father angry with him, but even his mother felt a sense of guilt toward HuMing!

To him, this was inconceivable---he couldn't stand the thought of HuMing retaining any place in this household.

With that in mind, he took out his phone from the drawer and quickly dialed a number.

The call connected almost immediately, and from the other end came a lazy, youthful voice.

"Good evening, Han ShuYi."

"I want to ask you---did you know all along that HuMing isn't actually their son?!"

"Oh, you're talking about that? Of course, I knew. Otherwise, why do you think I told you in that small mountain village that you were the real son of the Han family?"

The meaning behind the voice was clear: if it weren't for HuMing, he would have been stuck in that mountain village for the rest of his life.

Even if HuMing had taken his place, the person on the phone seemed to think it was a trivial matter.

Han ShuYi's breathing quickened at the thought.

But he also knew very well that his current position in life was entirely due to this person's influence.

Han ShuYi had never met them in person, but they had given him opportunities and money, allowing him to reunite with his biological parents.

For that alone, he felt this individual was a powerful and inscrutable figure.

"Oh, by the way, just a reminder---your fiancée's family is already falling apart. I suggest you get rid of them while you can. Of course, if you actually have feelings for that ugly girl, just ignore it and do what I said."

"And what about HuMing? How do you expect me to deal with him?"

"How should I know? If you can't handle someone like HuMing, it just means you're not competent enough. And people who lack competence don't even qualify to be a pawn." The voice chuckled, dripping with disdain.

Han ShuYi clenched his fists tightly, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes

He wouldn't let anyone take away what he had now. If someone dared to try, he'd make sure they paid the price in blood!

...

Lee Tian lay in bed beside his wife, who had been by his side day and night.

But his mind kept drifting to matters at the company.

Business hadn't been great lately---many investors had refused to work with him. If it weren't for the Han family project, he might have had to sell off his shares already.

Tossing and turning, unable to sleep, Lee Tian stole a glance at his sleeping wife. Then, he pulled out his phone and opened a hidden album containing photos of him and his son.

Seeing his own flesh and blood brought a smile to Lee Tian's lips.

But just then, his phone vibrated. It was rare to receive calls this late at night unless something serious had happened.

Not wasting a moment, Lee Tian answered the call directly.

"Hello, what happened?"

"It's not good, Mr. Lee! The company's alarm went off---someone's broken in!"

"What?!"

Lee Tian exclaimed, his voice startling the person next to him awake. Yu YueLuo looked at him in confusion, but Lee Tian hurriedly threw on a few pieces of clothing and rushed out the door without any explanation.

Left in a daze, Yu YueLuo glanced at the time on her phone---two or three in the morning. What on earth was Lee Tian doing, heading out at this hour?

She was actually quite tired today. After all, she had just transferred two million to Hu Ming's account---money that came from her private savings and the funds Tang De had saved!

Though it pained her to part with the money, she believed it would be worth it if it kept HuMing from spilling their secret.

The phone on the table vibrated, catching Yu YueLuo's attention. She picked it up, only to see a message from an unfamiliar number.

'Now is your chance to act. Don't you want to know what secret Lee Tian is hiding?'

As Yu YueLuo read the message, she instantly snapped to attention.

She recalled the task that Hu Ming had entrusted to her, one that involved a secret about Li Tian---one even she, as his wife, was unaware of!

With that thought in mind, she hurriedly got up and made her way to the study.

She remembered there was a safe in that spot where Lee Tian kept important things!

Meanwhile, HuMing stood at the top floor of a nearby skyscraper, where he had a clear view of the Lee Corporation building, which was beginning to light up.

A simple action from him could send countless people into a frenzy; that was his ability.

Leaning against the railing, HuMing pulled a photo from his pocket.

The image captured Lee Tian holding his illegitimate son. No, the child was actually Lee Tian's only son. As for Li Yue, she was merely a byproduct of Yu YueLuo's mistake.

HuMing had no interest in family morals; he was only after a result.

He dialed Liang Feng's number, and on the other end, it seemed like Liang had been waiting for his call. As soon as it connected, the other party answered.

"Have you taken care of the task I assigned you?"

"Yes, as per your instructions, I placed the photo in that location when I visited the Lee family. Now we just need to wait for Yu YueLuo to discover it. Once that happens, chaos will ensue in the Lee household. When the Lee family is in disarray, we can seize the opportunity to take over their assets."

Liang Feng was already prepared. After accepting HuMing's suggestion, he understood he had to see this through to the end.

"Good. You should also start preparing to move your wife and daughter."

"And you?"

"Me? Don't worry about me. You can let Lee Tian know about this, and he can come after me for revenge. I need him to help me disappear for a while."

HuMing took out his binoculars and gazed at the distant building as its lights flickered on. Below, Lee Tian had already rushed to the scene.

A subtle smile crept onto Hu Ming's face as he picked up a helmet and wore it before turning to leave.

---

The alarm finally stopped ringing by the time Lee Tian reached his office, only to find documents scattered all over the floor.

However, the most crucial safe was untouched!

He hurried over to open it, and thankfully, all the important documents were still intact.

These documents were vital; they held the company's lifeblood. If they were to leak, the entire company would be doomed!

Realizing this, Lee Tian felt a wave of fear wash over him. But soon after, he began berating the staff for being utterly useless!

While Lee Tian was busy working in the company, Yu YueLuo discovered a photograph of a young boy in the safe.

Her pupils dilated in shock as she froze in place.

Because the little boy was strikingly similar to Lee Tian!
