All three were extended vans, and several ordinary-looking people got out.
When Bai received the call from Maomao, he knew that today's matter was no ordinary one, because the sect leader had asked him to bring people.
Typically, sect leaders don't like to make a big fuss about their actions.
"Go in, clean the place thoroughly, keep your mouths shut, Bai Jiang, and don't leave any trace," Cat said.
This matter isn't as serious as it seems. After all, Pei Wu and his men came secretly, so dealing with these people won't cause too much trouble later. However, we still need to be careful.
General Bai nodded.
These people from the Eight Gates are tighter on their tongues than anyone else, because they are governed by the rules of the Eight Gates.
After personally explaining these things, the cat returned to the car and quickly drove away.
During that time, she made another phone call.
After she put down her phone, Jiu Shiyi asked, "Sister, where are we going?"
Cat: "The Mu family."
...
An hour later, at the Mu family's old house.
Cat led Old Man Jiu and Jiu Shiyi inside, and the butler came out to greet them, "Miss Cat, Mr. Jiu, Young Master Jiu, we've been waiting for you."
The butler was very polite and courteous, bowing slightly.
Old Man Jiu hastily cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.
Jiu Shiyi wasn't used to it either; he had never been called "young master" before.
It's only a little past eight o'clock. Old Madam Mu is dressed neatly, drinking tea while waiting for someone.
At this moment, seeing them enter, he smiled and said, "Please have a seat."
Old Man Jiu awkwardly and nervously cupped his hands in greeting, "Madam Mu, I have long admired your name."
He had indeed long admired the Mu family. The Mu family had always been a mysterious and unpredictable family in Beijing. In the business world, the Mu family's businesses were spread across almost every industry. Anyone who heard of the Mu family would have to think twice.
Madam Mu was a prominent figure in her time, and she and Mr. Mu were a perfect couple in Beijing. Unfortunately, Mr. Mu passed away at a young age.
Even at the height of his power, Old Man Jiu had never met the head of the Mu family. Unexpectedly, he met him during his most destitute time.
When Maomao said he was coming to the Mu family, he was stunned for a while. It wasn't until he stood here that he believed it. So, it really is the Mu family!
Madam Mu smiled kindly, "Mr. Jiu, you don't need to be so polite. I was really happy when Maomao called me just now. You can stay here and relax. As long as you don't mind that it's quiet here."
Old Man Jiu immediately said, "No, no, how could that be? Xiao Yi and I have already troubled you enough by coming here. I am grateful enough, how could I possibly find it offensive?"
Madam Mu noticed Jiu Shiyi and looked at him with admiration. "I've heard of this child. He's a child prodigy. There's only one like him in the entire capital. Mr. Jiu, you have a good grandson."
Old Man Jiu nodded with a hint of pride. He glanced at the cat and said, "Yes, I have a good grandson and a good granddaughter."
The cat didn't say anything.
Madam Mu said considerately, "Mr. Jiu, the housekeeper has already arranged accommodations for you. You've had a long day, so I won't keep you from resting any longer."
While Old Man Jiu was still hesitating, Cat said, "Old man, you go. Little brother, you go too."
Then the two of them left with the butler.
The Mu family's old house is a large courtyard with many years of history. The large courtyard contains smaller courtyards, resembling a garden. The housekeeper arranged a separate small courtyard for them, which was very comfortable.
After they left, Maomao took the initiative to say, "Grandma, I brought Old Man Jiu and Jiu Shiyi here for refuge. The Kunwu Group, where Jiu Shiyi works, sent people to kill him today. After thinking it over, I think this place is the most suitable. I've asked Bai Jiang to stay here and protect you for the next few days."
After a pause, the cat said politely, "Grandma, if you feel uncomfortable, I'll take them somewhere else."
Madam Mu was a worldly woman, so Mama simply told her the whole story, since it was no small matter.
"Hehehe." Old Madam Mu laughed, giving the cat a slightly reproachful look. "Although I'm old, I'm not senile. When you called me, I knew it wasn't a small matter."
"You're being too polite! If you marry Jin's son in the future, Mr. Jiu will be my in-law, we'll all be family, what's inconvenient about that?"
The cat couldn't help but laugh, "Hehe, grandma, you're right."
Madam Mu was even happier. She loved the cat's spirit; she would beam with joy whenever Jin Er was mentioned, showing that a girl's feelings are never hidden.
"So, don't say things like that anymore... As for sending that Bai general from the main gate, you can decide for yourself. There are quite a few guards in the mansion, both overt and covert. If you want to send someone from your side, that's fine too."
The cat nodded.
Madam Mu continued, "Kunwu Group is a unique conglomerate in the world. At least in public, it still has some dignity. I doubt it would dare to come here. Cat, don't worry. I'm overjoyed that you thought of your old lady."
"Grandma, you're so kind."
...
After staying for a while, Maomao went back. Just as she passed by Lushan No. 2, the three vans drove away.
After thinking about what Old Madam Mu had said, Mama decided to entrust the safety of Old Man Jiu and Jiu Shiyi to her and not let Bai Jiang go.
During this period, whether it was the new vegetarian food at Seven Plus One or the winery she was preparing for, Bai Jiang was indispensable.
After returning home, Maomao was about to send a message to Jiuyebai when, unexpectedly, Jiuyebai sent her a file package first.
[This is the information about Kunwu that you requested last time. Kunwu's internal information is highly confidential, so it took a little longer than expected.]
The cat's eyes lit up; [It's arrived just in time!]
Jiu Ye Bai: [? What do you mean by that? You didn't run into someone from Kunwu, did you?]
Jiu Yebai is quite perceptive; his reconnaissance abilities have become increasingly stronger since he joined the army.
Cat: [Jiu Shiyi is a researcher at Kunwu]
Jiu Yebai knew that after he left, Jiu Shiyi often tried to make his presence known at their house. However, he hadn't paid much attention to this person before, but now, hearing what Maomao said, he immediately said:
[What does this have to do with him? Cat, you're investigating Kunwu, it's not just because of him, is it?]
Cat: [Yes]
Jiu Shiyi stared at that simple, affirmative word and a sense of crisis suddenly arose! [Then tell me, am I still your most beloved younger brother?]
Will that little brat Jiu Shiyi take over his place in the cat's heart when he's not around?
Cat seemed not to have seen the message; his gaze was fixed on the documents on the computer screen. Suddenly, he said, "Xiao Bai, immediately check on Jiu Zhongnian and Pei Wu."
