The night Chi Yuan and Qi Wang consummated their relationship, Qi Wang, as an illegitimate child, had just been acknowledged by the Qi family.
At that time, the Chi family was at its peak, an...
Chapter 151 I'm Really Not in the Mood
When we went downstairs, my parents were chatting happily with Mr. Qi, and it didn't look like they were discussing any serious business.
Seeing the two of them coming over, Father Chi waved at them and said, "You're here just in time. I have something to tell you."
Chi Yuan couldn't think of anything else to talk about now.
As she got closer, she could see the white in her father's hair more clearly.
Time is merciless, and before we knew it, our parents had grown old.
Chi Yuan let go of the man's hand and walked over to sit next to his parents. "If you have something to say, just tell me directly. Why did you come all the way here?"
Qi Wang naturally sat down next to Old Man Qi.
Father Chi held her hand and looked at Qi Wang: "Yuanyuan, you should bring Qi Wang to visit Chi's company often in the future. If necessary, you can let him participate in Chi's work with you."
My father has made his point very clear.
Let Qi Wang also interfere in the Chi family... He is clearly ready to pass the burden on himself.
Chi Yuan was about to speak, but her father spoke before her: "Just listen to what I have to say first."
"Chi was in crisis before, and many management members left, which also reduced some of the corrupt officials. It won't be too difficult for you to manage it, but you still need to show your strength and convince everyone in Chi. Let Qi Wang help you with this. You are all young people, and you know better than me, who is about to retire, what model is most suitable for Chi today."
Is he completely relieved about Qi Wang?
But my father said this, as if he was about to leave me...
For more than 20 years, Chi Yuan has never been away from her parents. When she was really asked to take responsibility this time, her first reaction was panic.
But only for a moment.
"I remember that."
She doesn't have much time left.
She has more than just herself, more than just her own family and children, and she also has responsibilities that she needs to shoulder...
"Well, it's a rare occasion for us to get together, so please stay for dinner."
Old Master Qi ended the conversation directly without asking Qi Wang whether he was willing.
Now, even if he has any objections to matters related to Chi Yuan, he will not raise them now.
After dinner, Mr. Chi did not stay too long as Mrs. Chi still had work to do.
Wen Yurong stayed and said, "Yuanyuan, please go shopping with me this afternoon."
Chi Yuan naturally would not refuse her mother's invitation. After briefly explaining everything to Qi Wang, the mother and daughter went out.
Chi Yuan just treated it as an ordinary shopping trip.
Along the way, Wen Yurong asked her many little questions about her and Qi Wang.
"Does he really not mind what's going on between you and Qi Ye now?"
Hearing this, Chi Yuan was helpless: "Mom, we have already talked it out. I don't like Qi Ye now, so why should he mind?"
Wen Yurong shook her head: "Men are very petty. They wish a woman would only have him as her man in her life. Besides, he deliberately targeted you before. I am not that confident in him after all."
This suspicion is simply out of a mother's concern for her daughter.
"Mom, you are prejudiced. Let's not talk about Qi Wang's indifference towards me. I also owed him something in the four years before that. It's pointless to bring up the past."
Chi Yuan took the initiative to bring up this topic.
While shopping in the mall, Wen Yurong went to the bathroom. Chi Yuan was waiting nearby and looked around casually.
Suddenly I noticed... there was a man standing near the emergency passage, staring in my direction.
There was some distance between them. Chi Yuan didn't pay attention at first, thinking he was staring at other people. It wasn't until Chi Yuan leaned against the wall that he realized...
Where she stood, there was no one else around? Not even a shop nearby.
Looking in the direction of the safe passage again, the man was still staring at him.
He stared straight ahead, with no unnecessary expression on his face.
They were too far away, and Chi Yuan couldn't see his expression clearly.
She had no impression of this person.
Not long after, Wen Yurong came out.
"What's wrong? What are you looking at?"
Wen Yurong looked in her direction and seemed not to notice the strange man.
Chi Yuan shook his head: "It's okay, let's go."
Maybe she was overthinking it?
Anyway, I'm not in the mood to go shopping anymore today.
After leaving the mall, Chi Yuan suggested going directly back to Chi's house and called a car.
Before getting in the car, she looked around and saw that the man had come out.
"Yuanyuan, what's wrong? You've been feeling uneasy since we left the mall."
Wen Yurong knew her daughter well, and seeing her worried look, she must have something on her mind.
"It's okay, let's go home first."
Even if you're tracking me, you can't follow me all the way, right?
It's unlikely that he is coming for Wen Yurong.
Then it can only be myself.
Have I offended anyone recently?
After arriving at the Chi family mansion, Chi Yuan did not leave immediately.
She followed him into the house, went up to the second floor, found the right direction, and opened the window.
Sure enough, I saw a van parked outside the gate.
From her direction, she could just see the man's clothes, which were the same as the one she saw in the mall.
Chi Yuan took a photo immediately.
Since she didn't have her computer equipment nearby, she simply asked He Yuanshan, "Is it convenient for you to use the computer now?"
The other side did not respond quickly.
She would not touch her father's computer casually.
Chi Yuan originally wanted to send the photo to Qi Wang, but what if he was just being too suspicious?
She wanted to see how long this person would stay outside the door.
Heyuanshan was very slow in replying to messages today.
It was not until the end of get off work that Chi Yuan looked out the window again.
I found out that the van...hadn't left yet!
Whether they target him or the Chi family, the outcome will not be good.
She sent the photo: "Help me check this guy, he's been following us for most of the day."
He Yuanshan responded, "Isn't this person... the same driver who hit Si Mingyue? I sent you the information, but you didn't even read it."
Chi Yuan stared at the picture for a long time but couldn't recognize it.
He Yuanshan sent more surveillance photos of the areas where the man had recently been.
"Compare carefully again, don't they look alike?"
Twenty years have passed, and there have been changes. That face has become much more mature.
When you look at the two clear photos side by side, you can still recognize them... they are indeed the same person.
"Why is he following me?"
Chi Yuan also wanted to find time to sound out this person, perhaps he could find out some inside information about the car accident that year.
But since he has been following me, it can only mean that there is indeed something behind what happened back then.
A moment later, He Yuanshan called directly.
"It's too troublesome to type. I'll just say it directly."
The sound of keyboard tapping could be heard from the other end of the phone. "I checked his recent activity data. Everything was normal a few days ago, but starting today, based on the surveillance footage near the mall, he's been following you."
In other words, this person was most likely hiding near Kuibai Road and watching her.
"What does he want to do? Find an opportunity to attack me?"
