193 You will take care of me from now on, Mr. Chi(1/2)
The winter nights in the Imperial Capital are always very psychedelic, with the blurry lights and falling snowflakes in the sky creating a sense of beauty that makes people's hearts float.
The closer we get to the end of the year, the busier the city becomes, and all the passers-by are in a hurry.
When Mu Qian passed by the largest light tower in the city center, she couldn't help but look out the window. She had never been to that place after being in the imperial capital for so long.
It is the largest lighting tower in the Imperial Capital, and it is also an observation deck. It is the tallest building in the entire Imperial Capital. From here, you can overlook the scenery of the entire Imperial Capital.
I heard that it is the place where most young people come, and it seems that there are more couples.
Chi Sizai's courtyard house is located in the city center, where land is at a premium. The surrounding houses are all owned by the Chi family and have not been developed into commercial streets.
So it should be quieter here.
Mu Qian rushed in as soon as she got out of the car. She crossed the swimming pool and went in. Before Heng Li, who was waiting at the door, could speak, she had already opened the door and went in.
"Miss Mu Qian..."
The person who walked straight in didn't hear what he said at all. Heng Li blinked and held back the rest of his words.
"Sir, you are in a meeting."
The internal meetings of the Chi family became busier as Mr. Nian Guan arrived. There were so many things waiting to be dealt with in the Chi family. Just after returning from the Yun family, two high-level meetings were held in succession.
Now it is a video conference. Although everyone is not face to face, they can still see each other.
In the study room with simple and bright decoration, a group of young and elite people in suits and leather shoes appeared on the half-wall-high display screen.
Everyone's speech was concise and to the point, highlighting the key points in just a few words without any nonsense.
The meeting was progressing smoothly, but towards the end, a female voice suddenly came from the audio equipment.
"Chi Si, come with me right away."
The man who was reporting on his work stopped, and everyone in the video looked at each other, staring at the girl who appeared in the video.
There was no knock on the door, she appeared suddenly, rushed over and took their fourth master's hand, calling them by their first names without any courtesy.
Mu Qian only knew that he was in the study and did not know that this person was in a meeting. After entering the door, she pulled his arm and walked out.
Chi Si chuckled when he saw her look and gently pulled her back.
"Wait a minute, I'll take you there after the meeting."
Everyone in the video widened their eyes for a moment. Everyone knew what kind of character this gentleman was, and the little girl opposite could barge in without any hindrance when the Fourth Master was in a meeting.
After entering the door, he dragged the person and walked out. Just like this, their fourth master was not angry yet, and even spoke with a bit of doting.
Mu Qian, who was dragged back by Leng Buding, looked up and saw people sitting in rows on the screen. She was stunned for a while and then quickly reacted.
"You are in a meeting."
Why didn't Hengli say anything when she came in?
"goodbye."
Mu Qian responded quickly and turned around to run away.
Chi Si quickly dragged the person back with quick eyes and hands, "You wait here for me, it will be over soon."
He glanced at the screen as he spoke, and the employees who were still in a daze reacted very quickly and continued to report on their work.
Mu Qian was forced to sit on the stool next to Chi Si. He felt quite at ease and pushed his cup in front of her.
"Drink some water."
Mu Qian glared at him, "Why do you leave me here?"
She didn't want to listen to this man's meeting. If she had known, she would have gone to Zhong's house by herself.
"You're not happy to have you stay with me." The man held her hand and played with it.
Although these managers all have a desire to gossip, they do not have the guts to do so. Those who report to work are extremely serious and do not dare to glance at the boss during the entire process.
Mu Qian pinched his palm hard and said, "You did it on purpose."
Chi Si held on to her hand without letting go and said innocently, "You ran in on your own."
The managers didn't waste any time and stopped after saying what needed to be said.
"Put next year's plan on my desk next Monday." Chi Si said without even raising his head.
The display screen went off, Mu Qian sighed and shook his head, "Life in this world is really tiring, it's better than before."
"In the past, swords and shadows were fighting for their lives, but now the world is about to become the same." Chi Si replied.
The offline intercontinental situation is not optimistic. The newly unified Beizhou is now looking at it with eager eyes. There will definitely be big movements in the spiritual world.
"What do you want from me?"
Chi Si raised his hand to tidy up her hair that had become raised due to running too fast.
Mu Qian remembered the purpose of this trip, "Let's go to Zhong's house."
"You want to explore Zhong Yuanzhi's memory and investigate what happened back then starting from Zhong Yuanzhi."
Mu Qian stared at him, "You are the roundworm in my belly."
Chi Si raised his hand to take her into his arms, lowered his head and rubbed the tip of her nose, "It seems that she is not sad anymore."
Although there was no relationship between Mu Qian and Yun Jingyu, she still couldn't help but lament that Yun Jingyu, her father, had almost interrupted her fantasy of all the fathers in the world.
She always believed that no parent would not love their children, but now that she thinks about it, family love in this world cannot always be generalized.
"Are you happy here?" Mu Qian asked.
Chi Si's parents also died young, and it was Mr. Chi who raised him. No matter in his previous life or this life, he seemed not to have a perfect family.
"Happy." Chi Si hugged the person in his arms tightly.
This life was what he asked for. No matter how difficult the road ahead was, after meeting her again, all the wanderings would be worth it.
"If you think this place is good, then I also think this place is the best." Mu Qian rubbed the clothes on his chest.
Hengli stood in the courtyard, and the snowflakes falling slowly from the sky fell into the swimming pool, melted into the water and disappeared.
Winter in the Imperial Capital seems to have come earlier this year, and the temperature has become lower than before.
He turned around and saw the two people hugging each other inside the half-open door, and he chuckled.
Anyway, this year, sir, it shouldn’t be too cold.
I don't know if it's his misunderstanding, but I always feel that Miss Mu Qian has been more intimate with her husband in the past few days and has become more dependent on him.
I don't know why, but it's a good sign.
Since the death of Mr. and Mrs. Chi, Mr. Chi has been taking care of him, but as a child without parents, his back always looks cold.
The Chi family's subordinates are watching him with eager eyes. Now that Mr. Chi's health is getting worse and worse, although Mr. Chi will not put those people in his eyes.
But it's always best to have someone around you who knows both coldness and warmth. Besides, Miss Mu Qian has a good temper and can get along happily with anyone.
The most important thing is to protect my shortcomings. I really couldn't be more compatible with my husband.
Before going to Zhong's house, Chi Si handed all the things he found to Mu Qian.
There is a thick pile of evidence that the Zhong family has used Zhong Limo to launder money over the years.
Zhong Limo made use of her status as Yun Han's only female disciple to make a name for herself in the cultural world, and her fame translated into profits that were no less than those of an ordinary listed company in the imperial capital.
In recent years, Zhong Yuanzhi has taken advantage of her reputation to collect money in the name of auctioning collectibles, and he also rescued a Zhong family company that was on the verge of bankruptcy.
According to the rules of the Shuling Department, if the guilty spirit has property in his name, all of it will be confiscated. If other crimes are involved during the investigation, it will be handed over to the relevant departments for investigation.
So the Zhong family is now in turmoil. If Zhong Limo is convicted, Zhong Yuanzhi, who is implicated in her, will be included in the scope of the investigation.
These secrets of the Zhong family can no longer be kept secret.
"I didn't expect that Zhong Yuanzhi did so many things in private, but according to the normal operations of the Shuling Department, the investigation of the Zhong family will soon be transferred to the Procuratorate." Mu Qian glanced at the contents of the document.
If something happens to Zhong Limo, it will definitely drag down the Zhong family. Now Zhong Yuanzhi must be as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
Thinking of this, Mu Qian raised her head and stared at the man in front of her, "I suddenly understand what you mean.
Chi Si smiled, his handsome face looking softer and more beautiful under the light.
"You've never been such a thief before." Mu Qian said, holding his face in her hands and rubbing it vigorously.
Although he was a taciturn young man in the past, he was ruthless and decisive, but he didn't know much about the ways of the world.
Chi Si held her wrist and moved forward, his thin lips fell on the corner of her lips and bit her.
"The most anxious person right now is Zhong Yuanzhi. Let's see who loses his composure first."
Mu Qian was stunned by his kiss. She rolled her eyes and leaned forward in his arms, "What if Zhong Yuanzhi wants to keep Zhong Limo?"
She was his biological daughter, and Zhong Yuanzhi was more justified in saving people than Yun Jingyu.
The man's slender fingers twined her hair around her ear, "Zhong Yuanzhi is also an ordinary man. No man can tolerate his wife being so close to his ex-boyfriend."
Regardless of whether he loves that woman or not, she is still his wife under the shackles of status. If there is any slight disturbance, when other people look at him, there will only be sympathy and ridicule in their eyes.
"Now we have to see whether Zhong Yuanzhi, the biological father, will abandon his daughter."
If Zhong Yuanzhi chose to cut off his tail to survive, Zhong Limo would probably have a hard time getting out.
