After Beating the Game, I Became the Villain BOSS

Tiger Fang Mercenary Corps Base.

Ou Chenyu was standing in front of the TV watching the news of Lucio's arrest, his face so gloomy it seemed it could drip water, looking extremely grim.

KK had come today to reset the countdown of the bomb within his body. Watching the news, he said, "That's your father-in-law, right? How did he get into such big trouble?"

Ou Chenyu glanced at KK, his eyes filled with coldness.

KK confusedly asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Ou Chenyu: "Don't you have something to say to me?"

KK: "Huh? What should I say?"

Ou Chenyu: "You haven't noticed anything unusual at Edge Mansion lately? My father-in-law's arrest has nothing to do with Su Mo? Was that video really released by hackers?"

KK chuckled, "Brother, your imagination is really wild. Su Mo's mindset has been wrecked by you recently, and you think he has the energy to deal with your father-in-law?"

Ou Chenyu said nothing, just stared coldly at him, only withdrawing his gaze after a long moment.

"Sobbing..." At that moment, a faint sound of crying came from outside the door.

A figure pushed the door open, crying as she ran in, "Chenyu, what about my dad?!"

"Tareg." Ou Chenyu embraced Tareg in his arms.

For a moment, he didn't know what to say, so he asked Xiaotian You, who came in with them, "Any news from the lawyer?"

Xiaotian You pursed his dry lips and solemnly replied, "The situation is not too good. The lawyer told me that Mr. Lucio is involved in several charges, among which the crime of embezzlement of office has been completely confirmed."

"Investigators from the seventh division of the economic investigation of the Public Security Bureau have settled in the Libetong Foundation and discovered a large amount of unidentified charitable funds in past accounts as well as many falsified books."

"If Mr. Lucio doesn't return these funds before the prosecution, he will face a heavy penalty of over 10 years."

Tareg's eyes were red from crying in Ou Chenyu's arms, "Chenyu, none of my dad's friends can be contacted now, you have to save him!"

Ou Chenyu frowned tightly, asking Xiaotian You, "If we return the funds, how much is needed?"

Xiaotian You hesitated, appearing helpless, then whispered after a moment, "About 2.7 billion yuan..."

Ou Chenyu heard it and nearly blacked out, his grip on Tareg's arm tightening, demanding heavily, "The Libetong Foundation was established 23 years ago and only raised a total of 3 billion yuan in charitable funds, how did your dad take 2.7 billion all by himself???"

Tareg looked aggrieved, crying softly, "What he did was wrong, but he's a good person. He's cared for me since I was little, Chenyu you have to save him!"

Ou Chenyu was furious, "If it were a few hundred million, I could still come up with it. 2.7 billion is such a huge amount, where am I supposed to get it for him?!"

Tareg clutched Ou Chenyu's arm, crying and persistently pleading, "You still have to find a way to save him. He's my dad, and your father-in-law too! He treated you so well before, you can't just watch him die! Wah wah wah—"

"Stop wailing!" Annoyed by the crying, Ou Chenyu pushed Tareg away, pacing the room with clenched teeth.

Tareg sat on the floor, constantly wiping her tears.

As she cried, she saw KK standing in the corner.

She first froze, and then a look of joy as if grabbing a lifeline appeared: "You, you're that young guy who used to be with Su Mo? It's me! Tareg! Do you remember me? We talked about protecting small animals together! We hit it off so well!"

Ou Chenyu was somewhat chauvinistic and usually didn't discuss his work with Tareg.

Tareg was only concerned about her animal protection projects and didn't really pay attention to the Mercenary Realm, so she knew nothing about what was going on between Edge, Tiger Fang, Su Mo, and Ou Chenyu.

Tareg ran to KK and grabbed his hand, pleading with a sob, "My dad is in trouble these days, can you contact Su Mo to lend us some money? Chenyu and I will pay him back later!"

Ou Chenyu, already in a foul mood, flew into a rage upon hearing that Tareg wanted to ask Su Mo for help.

"Bang!"

Ou Chenyu grabbed a cup and smashed it on the ground, shouting angrily, "If you can't speak, keep your mouth shut!"

Tareg shivered in fright, helplessly curling up and softly crying, "Then what should I do... I have to save my dad no matter what..."

Ou Chenyu rubbed his forehead and paced, the room echoing with his vexed breathing.

After a few minutes, he stopped and said in a deep voice, "You don't need to worry about this, you're a woman, you can't help. I'll take care of it."

He told Xiaotian You, "Get Max to my office, I have something to discuss with him."

Before leaving, Ou Chenyu pushed KK out, "You can go back, keep an eye on Su Mo, and report to me immediately if there's any movement."

KK squinted his eyes and said meaningfully, "Director Ou, it's your duty to save your father-in-law with money, I won't say anything. But don't forget about other places that need funding."

Ou Chenyu gave KK a light slap on the face twice and said coldly, "Cut the crap. You won't get less of your share, just do your job."

KK said nothing more, quietly leaving.

Leaving the Tiger Base, he found a shared bicycle and rode through the streets and alleys, stopping here for a while, sitting there briefly, buying some snacks and milk tea, and leisurely surveying his surroundings as he ate.

Ensuring no one was following, he entered a dark alley and took out his phone to dial a number.

KK was the first to speak, "Big brother, it's me, KK."

This simple sentence actually concealed an agreed-upon code between the two.

Saying "Big brother," "It's me," and "KK" together indicated safety and allowed for normal conversation.

Omitting any part represented being in danger, the call being made under duress, or being monitored, or indicating any other risk.

Upon saying the safety code, Su Mo's concerned voice came through the receiver, "Is everything okay?"
