Watching Kong Ye leave, Xu Taiping's face turned pale.

It seemed that these five permanent members were really going to overthrow him. Looking at Kong Ye's behavior just now, it was very likely that he was being probed by these five permanent members. They wanted to see where his bottom line was and his performance, perhaps even those five permanent members would feel at ease.

Amongst the five permanent members, only the Wudang Faction was truly an enemy to Xu Taiping. However, in front of great benefits, Shaolin, Kongtong, and other sects could only choose to stand opposite of Xu Taiping. Xu Taiping did not blame them; after all, every sect wished for their own sect to be better.

However, Xu Taiping did not blame them, it did not mean that Xu Taiping was truly willing to become a puppet. Xu Taiping had already started to lay out his plans, and before long, a battle between him and the five permanent members would begin.

Xu Taiping took out his phone from his pocket. When he was talking to Kong Ye, his phone vibrated. There must be a message.

Xu Taiping took a look at his phone and found that it was a message from Zhou Nuo. There was a picture of a few people padding in front of the camera, and in the lower left corner, there was a person standing under a tree with a cigarette in his mouth.

That person's face was a little hollow because it wasn't focused, and his facial features weren't as clear as those in the center of the picture, but they could still be clearly seen.

Seeing this person, Xu Taiping frowned.

The person in the photo was a very ordinary looking young man who appeared to be in his twenties. He was about 1.7 meters tall and was wearing clothes that were popular over 20 years ago. His hair was a little fluffy.

Xu Taiping felt that this was his first time seeing this person, but he didn't know why. He felt this person looked very familiar, and it seemed like he had seen someone who looked a bit like this person recently.

"Why does it feel so familiar?" Xu Taiping frowned as he kept staring at the man. After about five to six minutes, his eyebrows suddenly twitched. He knew why the man in the photo looked so familiar.

This man looked somewhat similar to the Uncle Fu he had seen in Afu's garage a few days ago when he had sent Xu Mena back home.

Uncle Fu was a middle-aged man, and this man was a young man. They weren't exactly alike, but the charm of his facial features was very similar. This young man was Sun Dongfu, and the man he saw a few days ago was called Uncle Fu.

"Don't tell me it's such a coincidence?" Xu Taiping held the photo in front of him in disbelief. He found that the man looked more and more like Uncle Fu, and both of them had the word 'blessing' in their names!

Xu Taiping quickly picked up his phone and called Xia Jinxuan.

"Do you have Xu Meena's number?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Yes, why?" Xia Jinxuan asked.

"Give me her number." Xu Taiping said.

"You can't be planning on snatching my love just because of Xu Meena and Li Junyi, right?" Xia Jinxuan curiously asked.

"Am I that kind of person? I have something to talk to her about! " Xu Taiping said.

"Alright, I'll send you Xu Meena's number!" Xia Jinxuan said.

Not long after, Xu Taiping received a call from Xia Jinxuan.

Xu Taiping directly dialed Xu Meina's number, but before the phone even rang, Xu Taiping decisively hung it up.

What should he say when he called? Did he directly ask Xu Meena if that Uncle Fu was Sun Dongfu?

Let's not talk about whether Xu Mena knew about Uncle Fu's past. Even if she did, would Xu Mena have told him about it?

If Sun Dongfu really was Uncle Fu, then why didn't he die? Didn't Duan Xiumei say that she had already killed Sun Dongfu? If Sun Dongfu really was Uncle Fu, then after so many years, why did he need to hide his name?

Xu Taiping had too many questions. These questions made him suddenly suspect what he was guessing.

If Uncle Fu was really killed by Duan Chunmei, then how could he have come to Jiang Yuan City and set up a car repair shop?

This didn't make sense. If a normal person was murdered, the first choice they would have would be to report it to the police!

Xu Taiping hesitated for a long time, but he still called Xu Mena.

After the phone rang for a while, Xu Meena picked it up.

"I am Xu Taiping." Xu Taiping said.

"Oh, what is it?" Xu Meena asked.

"Didn't you ask me to go to your place? I just happen to be free tomorrow. " Xu Taiping said.

"Didn't you say you wouldn't come? Why did you change your mind all of a sudden? " Xu Meena asked.

"I'll be honest with you. I don't have much to do with Li Junyi and his family. Since you're his girlfriend now, I'll go a bit closer to you to disgust him." Xu Taiping said.

"You … with me. " Xu Meena said.

"Oh?!" Xu Taiping gaped for a moment. He hadn't thought that such a simple reason would resonate with her.

"I don't like Li Junyi, and I don't want to be his girlfriend either. But I must keep my promise until the next time I defeat him. So, I also want to disgust him." Xu Meena said.

"Ha ha-ha ha, our thoughts just happened to agree with each other. Since that's the case, I'll go to the Aphrodite garage tomorrow morning at 8 AM and find you there!" Xu Taiping said.

"En!" Xu Meena said as she hung up the phone, her expression as cold as ever.

Xu Taiping put down his phone in satisfaction. He would see for himself if Uncle Fu was Sun Dongfu or not.

Early the next morning, Xu Taiping drove to the entrance of Afu's garage.

The shop was not open yet, which surprised Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping looked at his watch and realized that he was five minutes early.

Five minutes later, at eight o'clock sharp, the curtained door of the shop swung up.

Uncle Fu limped out of the garage with a washbasin in his hand and splashed the water onto the ground.

"Uncle Fu!" Xu Taiping greeted with a smile.

"Oh, it's you." Uncle Fu looked at Xu Taiping and said, "Are you here for Mena?"

"That's right!" Xu Taiping smiled as he walked over to Uncle Fu's side. "Uncle Fu, you got up pretty early."

"I'm fine. I have to open the restaurant every day at 8 o'clock sharp. Mina is washing up, wait for her. " As Uncle Fu said this, he walked to the side and started organizing the tools on the table.

Xu Taiping saw that Xu Meina still hadn't appeared, so he casually walked over to Uncle Fu and said, "Uncle Fu, how long have you been running this shop? I think the signboard has a period of time to it! "

"Almost twenty years." As Uncle Fu spoke, he carefully arranged the screwdrivers in his hands one by one.

"That long?" Xu Taiping said in surprise, "From your accent, Uncle Fu, you're not a local, are you? You came to Jiangyuan City 20 years ago? "

"That's right!" Uncle Fu smiled and nodded, saying, "Alone, he roamed the martial arts world when he was young and came to Jiangyuan City later on. He thought this place was pretty good and coincidentally met my master, who then learned how to repair cars and opened his own store."

"Uncle Fu, why didn't you find a wife? Your business seems to be pretty good too, it shouldn't be that you can't find a wife, right? " Xu Taiping asked curiously.

"Women, trouble." Uncle Fu shook his head and said, "I think this is good. When I get old, I'll find a disciple to be my son. I'll give the shop to him and let him give me old age. This is also good, haha!"

"That's true, but it's still not as good as being your own. Oh right, Uncle Fu, is Mina your relative?" Xu Taiping asked.

"No." Uncle Fu shook his head and said, "Mena's dad used to transport people, so we knew each other and could be considered good friends. We kept in touch, and then Mena's dad said that Mena was going to Jiangyuan City to study at university and didn't like staying in the dorms with others, so he told her to come to my store and help me with my work on Saturday. Mena's cooking skills are pretty good.

"So that's how it is!" Xu Taiping nodded and looked at Uncle Fu a few more times. The more he looked, the more he felt that Uncle Fu resembled that Sun Dongfu.

At that moment, Xu Meina walked out of the room.

Today, Xu Meena was wearing a simple work vest with a pair of shorts, and a hat on her head. A large portion of her hair was hidden inside the hat, revealing a small ponytail on the front, making her look quite adorable.

"My car will be arriving soon. Take a look at it for me." Xu Meena said to Xu Taiping.

"What car did you buy?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Yamaha z5500." Xu Meena said.

"Oh? That car is very ordinary. " Xu Taiping said.

"If I were as rich as you, I would pick the expensive ones." Xu Meena said.

"Lad, are you very rich?" Uncle Fu asked.

"Fortunately, it's average." Xu Taiping smiled and shook his head.

"They're all rich people. I feel that this young man is much better than your boyfriend. Your boyfriend is driving a Lamborghini as if he's afraid that others won't know that he's rich." Uncle Fu shook his head.

"Her boyfriend is really rich!" Xu Taiping smiled, "His boyfriend, do you know whose nephew he is?"

"You talk a lot?" Xu Mena frowned as she spoke.

"Who?" Uncle Fu asked curiously.

"It's Li Bao Lu, the nephew of China's richest man, Li Bao Lu. He's amazing, right?" Xu Taiping laughed.

"Li Bao Lu?" The muscles on Uncle Fu's face trembled slightly as an unfathomable emotion flashed across his eyes. However, it was quickly suppressed by him.

"Does Uncle Fu know of Li Bao Lu?" Xu Taiping saw Uncle Fu's slight change and asked while the iron was hot.

"I know he knows, but it's useless. I know him, he doesn't know me, haha, Mena, even if he's some nephew of Li Bao Lu, you have to find a boyfriend and see clearly, I have a good relationship with your dad and can be considered your elder. I have to advise you on this point!" Uncle Fu said.

"Got it, Uncle Fu. Go buy some noodles. Didn't you say you want to eat noodles at noon?" Xu Meena asked.

"Yes, yes, yes. Then I'll be leaving first. You look good!" Uncle Fu nodded and walked out of the shop.
