Zou Bai frowned, not quite understanding what she was saying. Why were so many people talking about Chen Xiang in front of him recently?
Although Chen Xiang’s father risked his life to save him, he also knew how to repay kindness by taking Chen Xiang into the country to take care of her, giving her a good standard of living and handing over her father’s inheritance to her.
Zou Bai even added a lot of things to the list. After all, for a father, the most important thing was for his daughter to live a good life.
He thought that he had done his best and even cooperated with the other party to create scandals so that her career in the entertainment industry could go smoothly.
If it had been someone else, Zou Bai would never have agreed, but for the sake of saving his life, he was willing to break his principles.
However, Chen Xiang was already an adult. He only needed to protect her in secret. There was no need to interfere too much.
He did not ask why Chen Xiang went overseas. It was her own choice.
“Mom, what happened to Chen Xiang?” Zou Bai asked.
Wen Li told him everything that happened in one breath, as well as the ring that Chen Xiang showed him.
“Chen Xiang must be related to the Church of Eternal Night. That’s something only high-ranking members have,” Wen Li concluded.
Zou Bai was truly shocked this time. He never thought that Chen Xiang would be related to the Church of Eternal Night. After all, her father had died at the hands of the Church of Eternal Night.
“Mom, are you sure?” Zou Bai asked.
Wen Li’s tone was affirmative. “I saw it clearly. It’s exactly the same as the ring you brought back. It’s definitely from that church.”
Zou Bai immediately thought of the situation Zou Yi and the others had reported. The recent appearance of the Church of Eternal Night in China was definitely not a coincidence.
They had been silent for so long, and it was time for them to reappear. However, they did not expect them to choose China.
In China, the Church of Eternal Night would only be considered a cult. It was very difficult to expand.
Of course, there was another possibility. They did not want to recruit believers in China at all. Instead, they wanted to take revenge on him.
Zou Bai wasn’t afraid of these things, but now that he had An’an and the children, he had to ensure their safety.
“Why do you look like that?” Jiang An asked.
Zou Bai seemed to be in a good mood just now, but after he answered the call, he frowned. It was obvious that it wasn’t good news.
“Chen Xiang might be a member of the Church of Eternal Night,” Zou Bai said without hiding anything.
Jiang An couldn’t believe her ears. Zou Bai had clearly told her that Chen Xiang’s father had died at the hands of the Church of Eternal Night. Logically speaking, she should be the person who hated the Church the most.
Their faces were filled with disbelief, but the human heart was the most complicated thing in the world. No one could tell how much a person would change.
“Then what do you plan to do now?” Jiang An asked.
Zou Bai was also thinking about it. After all, he hadn’t confirmed the relationship between Chen Xiang and the Church of Eternal Night. Moreover, people from the Church had been appearing in China frequently recently. He had to find out the truth.
“I want to meet Chen Xiang,” Zou Bai said.
Jiang An nodded. “I also think you should meet her. At least listen to what she has to say. It’s best to make things clear.”
Both of them felt that this was a good idea. They gathered together to discuss when they should meet Chen Xiang and whether Jiang An should stay by Zou Bai’s side. Their attitudes were very frank.
Mo Shen sat on the sofa and listened to their discussion. He felt that something wasn’t right. If Zou Yi and the others were right and Zou Bai and Chen Xiang had a relationship, then he definitely wouldn’t have such a reaction.
Even if Zou Bai was pretending, he shouldn’t let An’an meet Chen Xiang. However, his attitude made it seem like Chen Xiang was just an acquaintance. It wasn’t a big deal.
Mo Shen interrupted, “An’an, who is Chen Xiang?”
“She’s the daughter of Zou Bai’s savior. Back then, Zou Bai took care of her for a period of time to repay her kindness. Now, she’s also a celebrity in the entertainment industry. However, she mainly developed her career overseas and only returned two days ago,” Jiang An explained.
Of course, Mo Shen knew who this Chen Xiang was. He just wanted to know what Zou Bai had said to An’an. It sounded reasonable now.
However, a man’s mouth could never be trusted. He only kept his thoughts to himself and watched the subsequent developments.
Zou Bai immediately noticed Mo Shen’s expression. It wasn’t as gentle as usual, as if he was dissatisfied. Moreover, when he looked at him, he seemed to be sizing him up. It was simply too strange.
However, he didn’t have time to talk to Mo Shen now. He had to go see Chen Xiang as soon as possible..
