Chapter 65 The Hypocritical Chi Family

After arriving at the airport, Ji Wan took Xiao Sun to have breakfast.

After boarding the plane, Ji Wan closed his eyes and rested.

Xiao Sun had just eaten, and because he got up early and felt a little dizzy, he began to feel drowsy.

When I woke up, the plane was about to land.

H City is a little far from Yucheng, so it can be considered a long journey. Xiao Sun was very excited. She seldom went on business trips before, and it was never her turn to go out even if she wanted to. Now she can go on a business trip, and to the coastal city she has always wanted to visit. It is like a dream.

After getting off the plane, I took a taxi to the booked hotel. Looking at the scenery outside the window, I was so excited.

The scenery of the coastal city is like a flowing watercolor painting, delicate and vivid.

The sea breeze blows gently, and through the window, it seems that the salty smell of the sea water is blowing in your face.

Ji Wan supported his chin and watched, and suddenly remembered that his brother also liked the sea.

Xiao Sun suddenly felt inexplicably depressed. He turned around and saw that Ji Wan's expression had returned to normal.

…

After arriving at the hotel half an hour later and settling in, Wu Zhenhai sent a message saying that he would have a meal with the sponsors and brand owners of this cooperation at the Yu Lu Hotel tonight, and that people from the Culture and Tourism Bureau wanted to come over to discuss public welfare cooperation.

Ji Wan replied, exchanged a few words with Wu Zhenhai, and began to prepare.

The dinner time was set at six o'clock in the evening. Ji Wan didn't feel sleepy because he had slept a lot on the plane. Seeing that Xiao Sun was not tired either, he took her to go for a walk.

Coastal cities are most famous for their seafood, and the most abundant delicacy is also seafood.

The air is filled with the delicious smell of the sea, and every dish is like a call to your taste buds.

Walking between the brightly lit stalls, the sizzling giant squid and fresh shrimp are really eye-catching.

"I've always dreamed of enjoying seafood, and thanks to Sister Ji, I can finally enjoy it."

"Me too. This shrimp is so big, could it be a spirit?"

"Don't worry, I've made a guide for this place, and it includes delicious food."

"You also made a strategy?"

"Of course, it's not easy to come here once, don't worry, Sister Ji, I will make sure you are satisfied with the meal."

With her food guide, Xiao Sun, like an experienced navigator, accurately avoids stalls with bad reputations just to find the most authentic delicacies.

Ji Wan was skeptical at first, but when she tried the roast suckling pig recommended by Xiao Sun, the crispy outside and tender inside, fragrant but not greasy taste made her change her mind instantly, and she decided to follow Xiao Sun's footsteps closely.

Considering that he had to attend a drinking party in the evening, Ji Wan kept his stomach contained and didn't eat too much.

After dinner, I went to the nearby beach to digest the food.

The afterglow of the setting sun casts a golden glow on the sea, creating a shimmering, golden hue that contrasts sharply with the receding horizon in the distance. The sea breeze is still gentle, but a bit cooler.

It would be a shame not to take a picture in this situation, so I took out my phone and took a few selfies and two pictures of the sea view. When I opened my phone, I found that most of the pictures were of delicious food.

I don’t know if Chi Wenyan has ever been here. If he has, he would also be amazed by the wonders of nature.

Or analyzing the local financial situation, he can do all of these things.

For some unknown reason, Ji Wan sent these photos to Chi Wenyan.

By the time I realized it, it had already been sent.

“Yes, the scenery is beautiful, and so are the people.”

Ji Wan was stunned by the speed of the reply. He replied with an emoticon and said, "Thank you for your approval, Mr. Chi. I will post it on my Moments, but please don't like it, as I'm afraid someone will see it."

"Okay, are you used to staying there? I'll ask my friend to pick you up."

"It's okay, I'll be back in a few days, no need to make a big fuss."

"Well, let me know if there's anything. As a partner, I still have to provide necessary help."

Ji Wan replied with a fist-raising emoticon, put away his phone, and looked up at the sky.

Walking slowly along the coastline, the soft sand under my feet recorded my footprints, and the duet of waves and wind was in my ears. It should have been comfortable, but I began to feel anxious.

Would her brother be in this city? Would he be able to see the same sky as her?

…

Inside the private room of Tianshengyan Bar, the atmosphere was solemn and gloomy, as if even the air had solidified into a thick ink color.

"You've been out for so long, it's time to go back and take a look."

Chi Wenyan was leaning on the sofa with a casual posture, a cynical smile on his lips, but his eyes were extremely sharp, as if he could see through people's hearts.

"No need. I'm fine here. I won't bother my second uncle."

"The elders in the family are also very concerned about the Second Young Master. You left without a word, and everyone is worried about you, especially the younger masters. If you have time, you should go back and visit."

"Thank you for your concern. I left without saying goodbye, which was my fault. I was sick and couldn't get a cure. I went to see a doctor, and he calculated it with his fingers and said that this is the holy place for me to heal."

After saying that, Chi Wenyan snapped his fingers and someone pushed the door open and walked in.

The woman swayed her slender waist, smiled charmingly at Chi Wenyan, and sat gently beside him.

Chi Wenyan put his arm around the woman's shoulders, his expression becoming more cynical.

"Why? Could it be that Second Uncle wants me to move? I have to ask that gentleman if it's okay."

The people of the Chi family looked at each other and thought that this was someone playing Tai Chi with them, but things that needed to be confirmed still needed to be confirmed a few more times.

"No, no, seeing that you are living well here, the Second Master is relieved. But it's almost Mid-Autumn Festival, are you really not going back?"

The smile on Chi Wenyan's lips deepened, and a shrewd gleam flashed in his eyes.

"During the Mid-Autumn Festival, when the moon is full and families are reunited, the Chi family will certainly be bustling with activity. However, I prefer quiet to bustling. No matter how dazzling the fireworks are, they can't compare to the inner peace. Since my second uncle and the others are worried, I'll ask you to take a message back, saying that everything is fine outside and that they don't need to worry."

"As for the Chi family's affairs, I have long since stayed out of them and will not interfere. They don't need to worry too much."

He gently patted the woman beside him, and the woman understood and stood up, leaving behind a graceful back.

Chi Wenyan's gaze shifted back to the visitor in front of him. "As for you moving, I've thought about it and decided not to. I'm too lazy. This is my own world, why should I leave? If Second Uncle and the others really care about me, they should focus on the prosperity of the family instead of constantly worrying about my whereabouts."

There was a hint of distance in his words, yet he was still polite, making it impossible to find fault with them.

No one knew better than them how Chi Wenyan left. It was really unlike Chi Wenyan to just keep his head down.

Now there was a hint of reluctance in his tone, yet a sense of helplessness, which was more like his speaking style.

There were no more doubts in his mind. The proud and ferocious tiger could only be driven back to the mountains and forests and be furious.

Chi Wenyan's words were so clear that if they continued to argue, they would only appear to be ignorant.
