Transmigrated as the fake young master, I'll beat up the scumbags and b*tches-Chapter 332Vol. 1 - - Biggest Incident

By the time Xia Chen saw HuMing and Xia XiaoXi return, Xia XiaoXi had already fallen fast asleep on HuMing’s back.

Right now, aside from himself, the person his little sister trusted most was HuMing.

And likewise, the person he trusted most—besides Xia XiaoXi—was also HuMing.

HuMing carried Xia XiaoXi into her room, but he still remembered the words she mumbled before falling asleep.

It seemed she wouldn’t be able to accept this truth so easily.

But HuMing felt there was still plenty of time. Some things could be approached gradually.

As HuMing stepped out of Xia XiaoXi’s room, he saw Xia Chen leaning against the hallway wall, their gazes locking the moment he emerged.

"Why didn’t I see the old butler when we got back just now? He usually greets us at the door."

"You know why, don’t you?" Xia Chen walked beside him as he spoke.

Hearing those words, HuMing instantly understood what Xia Chen meant. It surprised him somewhat—he’d thought Xia Chen would need more time to come to terms with the truth, or at least to uncover more clues.

"Xia Chen, this was your decision. I didn’t say a word."

Xia Chen stopped in his tracks. HuMing did the same.

HuMing had heard from Liang Feng that when Xia Chen began investigating the mole within the Xia family, he hadn’t used any external help. In other words, finding the culprit had been entirely due to Xia Chen’s own ability.

And now, reality once again proved that neither HuMing nor Xia GaoWu had misjudged him.

Xia Chen wasn’t lacking in ability. He had simply never had the environment to let his potential shine.

"HuMing... if I remove the old butler from the household and clean house from the inside out, do you think... would that be too cruel?"

"Xia Chen," HuMing placed a hand on his shoulder, "what matters most isn’t experience—it's the choices you make. There are some things only you can decide. If you believe it’s right, then go for it. That’s the path that truly belongs to you."

Xia Chen stood there, frozen.

He wasn’t confused by HuMing’s words—he was shaken by them.

From the very beginning, HuMing had never intended to interfere with the Xia family's affairs. Everything that had happened up to now had been a result of his own choices. Even now, HuMing was letting him take the lead—just as he said, perhaps this was the path that belonged to him.

Slowly, Xia Chen turned to gaze out the window. Outside, the old butler was driving away from the Xia estate.

Ever since HuMing mentioned there was a mole in the Xia family, he had begun investigating everyone—starting with the old butler’s son. Because during the days when his father had met with trouble, the old butler had been on leave, and in his place... was the son.

After several days of digging, Xia Chen had finally discovered that someone had tampered with his father’s computer. Files that belonged to his father had been leaked on the very day of the incident.

And because of that, the Bai family had been destroyed.

But the question remained—how did they know there was dirt on the Bai family in his father’s files?

And how could they time the release so precisely?

Xia Chen had a gut feeling that if he could get the truth out of the old butler’s son, then the identity of the mastermind would finally be revealed.

It all sounded simple—but in truth, Xia Chen had put in tremendous effort to get this far.

Just like HuMing said, everything that had happened so far was the result of his own strength. And he would drag the person behind it all into the light!

"HuMing... I want to become someone my father can be proud of."

"The way you are now, you’re already heading in the direction Uncle Xia hoped for. Don’t stop. Keep growing. I’m really looking forward to your future."

Trust—this was what HuMing had learned in the Gu family.

And now, the tides were beginning to turn.

Just as this thought crossed HuMing’s mind, Xia Chen’s phone suddenly rang from his pocket. He picked it up, but the moment he saw the caller ID, his brows knit tightly together. He answered.

His expression quickly darkened. Silently, he looked toward HuMing before hanging up.

Turning back, his voice was heavy.

"The old butler just called. He said... his son’s been killed."

HuMing froze.

The news caught him completely off guard. Without hesitation, he whipped out his phone and dialed a certain number.

But the line was busy—no matter how long he waited, it didn’t go through.

Clenching his phone tightly, HuMing’s jaw tensed.

He’d missed something—just one small misstep.

“Damn it!”

For the first time, HuMing lost his composure. He stormed out of the Xia estate, rage burning in his chest.

…

“We checked—the person you had called’s time of death is almost exactly the same as the butler’s son. Looks like the killer struck him first, then moved on to the butler’s son.”

The man in front of HuMing gave a brief report before turning to examine the surrounding environment.

They were now inside a rented apartment—and right across the street was where the butler’s son had been living. The spot was ideal for observing his daily activities.

HuMing had assigned one of Gu WeiJun’s most trusted operatives to this exact location. He had personally tested the man’s skill—strong enough that even Bai XingQi wouldn’t have had the upper hand in a fight.

And yet this man had been killed... with barely any sign of resistance.

HuMing could only think of a handful of people capable of such a feat. But those people... weren’t even in this world anymore.

Unless—did Shi Zhong still have hidden assets that HuMing knew nothing about?

Lowering his head, HuMing fell into deep thought.

Across the street, Xia Chen was consoling the old butler.

Whoever did this must have realized the man was observing the butler’s son, and eliminated him to cover their tracks.

If Shi Zhong really had such capable people under his command, why hadn’t he used them earlier?

“Young Master, the Master has arrived,” Lan Jun said quietly behind HuMing.

HuMing turned to see Gu WeiJun walking straight toward the corpse, which was already covered with a white sheet.

Lifting it gently, he revealed a familiar face.

His expression remained unreadable, but HuMing could still see the storm of emotion hidden behind his eyes.

This man... meant a lot to Gu WeiJun.

HuMing said nothing. He simply leaned against the wall, repeating to himself in his mind:

‘Calm down. Shi Zhong wouldn’t do this again. His real target was the butler’s son. But this incident proves... he’s still hiding cards we haven’t seen yet.’

‘Still... with things having escalated to this point—he can’t just stand back anymore.’

HuMing’s gaze turned cold, and within his eyes, a quiet anger began to stir…
