1990s Hong Kong: Waking Up as the Kidnapped Tycoon's Sister-in-Law

Chen Rou first meets Nie Zhao because of an anti-terrorism case involving Hong Kong's wealthy elite. He is the richest man in Hong Kong for many years, and a renowned powerful figure. Even thou...

Chapter 408 Nie Zhao, Keep Out of the Way!

Nodding deeply, he said, "When you're not busy, let's get together. I, your grandfather, apologize and admit my mistake."

Chen Rou said with a smile, "That's not urgent, but you need to think carefully about A Kang. We not only need him to do things, but we must also keep him quiet, completely shut down."

They planned to use Ah Kang to frame someone, and Chen Rou didn't want to frame Liao Sir, but rather the highest-ranking civilian officer in the police force, Commissioner of Police Cheung Siu-fai Sir. Of course, things couldn't be taken lightly.

We need to get A-Kang to do things, but we also need to keep A-Kang quiet.

Master Dong smiled and said, "I'll send someone to observe A-Kang first, and make sure to treat him accordingly so that he will be completely devoted to you."

He was in a wheelchair, so he had to stop at the door because it was difficult to cross the threshold.

But as soon as Chen Rou stepped out, Master Dong grabbed her again: "Arou, did you hear that?"

Chen Rou found it strange: "What was that sound?"

Mr. Dong asked, "Is A-Yuan outside? I heard his voice."

This old man is really something. A Yuan is not even a year old and can't even walk yet, how can he come to Yiyong Hall?

Chen Rou turned the wheelchair around and deliberately said, "Yes, it's A Yuan, carrying your favorite big machete, okay?"

Mr. Dong thought about it and agreed. Although he was disappointed not to see the child, he smiled and said, "Alright, go ahead."

He hesitated, though he did want to say that A Yuan's forehead resembled his son Dong Ying's, but of course, comparing a child to someone who died young was an unlucky thing to do, so he didn't say it.

But he was so sad. Whenever he saw A Yuan, it was as if he saw his son when he was a child.

As soon as he sees that child, all his unhappiness dissipates like smoke; he misses his child so much that he's developed a heart condition.

However, it really wasn't his imagination just now, because when Chen Rou left Yiyong Hall and got to the roadside, she saw her Pajero, and Xiao A Yuan was leaning against the window with both hands, howling at the outside: "Awooo, awooo."

Children his age can't walk yet, but they can stand.

Moreover, whenever the car stops, he refuses to sit in the child seat and insists on standing.

Upon seeing Chen Rou, he reached out from afar, calling out, "Mang Mang, Mang Mang."

After getting in the car and taking the child in her arms, Chen Rou touched the child and noticed a problem: "Why is he so dirty?"

Li Xia was a little embarrassed: "I thought the sea sand was as clean as the sand in your yard, but I didn't expect it to be so dirty."

Chen Ke, in the passenger seat, also said, "How about I book a hotel, give him a bath first, and then take him back?"

A-Yuan went to a wild beach with his grandparents and got all dirty, with sand falling all over him.

The sand that Nie Zhao gave to his son to play with was not only specially purified, but also polished. Although it is fine sand, ordinary sand has sharp edges that can scratch people's skin, while polished sand will not.

If Nie Zhao sees his son covered in dust from playing, he'll probably have to call the family doctor again.

But Chen Rou certainly wouldn't. Patting her son's bottom, she asked, "Did you have fun?"

The little one's language system is indeed developing quickly, and he speaks so sweetly: "Heart, heart."

They're even using reduplicated words, so they must be really happy.

Oh right, and there's Chen Ke's hat too. After he snatched it this afternoon, he probably thought that hat would belong to him forever. As soon as he saw Chen Ke take the hat and get off the bus, he quickly grabbed it. Looking at his mother, he said, "Mang Mang."

I want a hat.

But of course, the heartless mother would only frown and say, "I'll count to three, then let go."

Because Chen Rou had already secretly spanked the little guy a few times, he knew that his mother would hit him if she frowned. Sure enough, she let go, but his mouth also pursed. He was also very good at reading people's expressions, looking at Li Xia with teary eyes.

Li Xia hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, buy the baby a newer and prettier one tomorrow."

Okay, Yuan was temporarily appeased, and the car started moving, so he could only play with his little hands out of boredom again.

As the car drove further and further away, Chen Rou saw Li Xia lean against Chen Ke's back.

She sighed, wondering why, despite the Chinese medicine doctor's continued help with treatment and Li Xia and Chen Ke now having time together, she still couldn't conceive.

But as long as they don't have a new child, they will remain immersed in the shadow of losing their child.

Unfortunately, Chen Rou was powerless to help with this matter and could only feel melancholy.

It was already evening, and Nie Zhao was looking at gifts in the foreign guests' shopping mall on the first floor of the hotel.

He glanced at everything, showing little interest in any of them.

Finally, he passed a counter and saw various military badges, hats, bullet casings, and toy pistols inside the glass. Since they were toys, he looked at them carefully to see if there were any he could buy for his son.

But the hat was military-style, green, and not very attractive; the pistol was made of iron, which would rust and was unsafe.

The badge has sharp edges and could easily scratch his son's delicate little hands, which wouldn't be good either.

The saleswoman spoke to him in Cantonese, saying, "Sir, these are children's toys with local characteristics. Kids should really like them. Would you like me to take a look?"

Mr. Nie smiled politely, befitting a gentleman, and his voice was particularly gentle: "No need, thank you."

His smile carried a natural resistance; although he was very polite, the moment he opened his mouth, it was as if he was asking others to shut up.

If the salesperson gets even slightly closer, he immediately backs away to a safe distance.

So he is a polite person, but strangers should not approach him.

The row of saleswomen looked at each other. Well, even the prettiest one of them had been shut up by their teasing. They dared not open their mouths anymore. After wandering around for a while, Boss Nie turned back, politely said goodbye, and left.

In his opinion, none of the toys and gifts here would be liked by his wife and son.

Never mind, I'll try to visit other places tomorrow when I have time.
