Chapter 385 Zhao
Family Jiayi has been here for more than two years, and this is the first time she has taken such a long vacation and traveled so far.
Brother Yue and the partners of Yi Ji also rushed to see her off. This is not only the first time for Yi Jiadong to take a plane, but also the first time for many people in Yi Ji to go to the airport.
Except for Doufuzai, who has taken a plane and even traveled abroad for work, and Manniu, who has also been to Taiwan with the boss, no one else has taken a plane.
Although Ah Xiang stroked Jiajun's hair and said soothingly, "When you grow up, there will be many opportunities to take a plane to travel around the world." In fact, she was also full of desire for such a future in her heart.
Fang Zhenyue helped to get the tickets that Mr. Zhao's housekeeper had booked, found Yi Jiadong and others, handed the tickets to Jiayi, and then looked at Brother Yi in casual clothes.
Brother Yi took off his apron and chef's hat, and put on a formal suit...
"What a handsome guy." Fang Zhenyue praised sincerely.
"Of course, our family has good genes." Jiajun nodded, "When I grow up, I will also be so handsome."
...
The Zhao family booked first-class seats for Yi Jiadong and Yi Jiayi. Although Yi Jiadong was over 30 years old, he was excited to be in first-class for the first time on a plane. He
was curious about everything, but he had to pretend to be calm.
After receiving the coffee from the staff of the first-class lounge at the airport, he thanked them gently and sipped it carefully. He
took a few sips in a pretentious manner, and waited until the staff left before he curled his lips, put the coffee on the table, turned around and complained to his sister in a low voice:
"Everything here is good, but the coffee is not as good as our Yiji."
...
Yi Jiadong runs a restaurant with a good reputation, and even Hong Kong celebrities often come to eat. He takes good care of his younger siblings and teaches them well. His monthly income is not low, he lives a moderate life, and saves a lot of money.
He has no bad habits, a gentle personality, and a transparent sensibility...
In the eyes of many people, such a man with five good qualities seems to be only one step away from being a "successful person" in a suit and leather shoes.
In this era, Hong Kong has very advanced services and facilities in all aspects, surpassing the world's top super cities, and this is also reflected in the flight attendant facilities and services.
The stewardess with plump lips in the first-class cabin asked Yi Jiadong and Yi Jiayi to take a seat in a particularly gentle and polite manner. Yi Jiadong, who used to take good care of others, was suddenly served and felt a little uncomfortable.
The stewardess with thick lips looked at him with a different eye, and regarded his gentle nature as a gentleman's demeanor.
But seeing that there was a beautiful woman beside him, it was a pity. It turned out that the handsome men who sold their looks all had someone to match them.
Just when the thick-lipped stewardess finished serving Yi Jiadong and Yi Jiayi, another thin-lipped stewardess suddenly came over and handed a notebook to Yi Jiayi with a bit of excitement in her politeness:
"Madam Yi, can I ask you to sign for me?"
She had recognized Yi Jiayi as the female detective who has been in the limelight in recent years.
Jiayi was a little embarrassed, but still took the notebook and wrote her blessing and her name on it carefully.
Back in the flight attendant rest area, the thick-lipped stewardess couldn't help but inquire about the situation of Yi Jiayi and Yi Jiadong, only to find out that the gentle gentleman was not the boyfriend of the beautiful girl, but her brother.
"Everyone who knows Officer Yi knows that she comes from an ordinary family and used to live in public housing. Her brother opened a restaurant. Aren't you going to marry a rich man? Don't blame me for not reminding you." The thin-lipped stewardess smiled and teased her sister.
"Looking like this, being so gentle, she can even eat northwest wind. Love, do you understand?" The thick-lipped stewardess tilted her head and looked at him with starry eyes. In this era, it is not easy to find a good man. "I'll go get him some coffee~"
As she said this, she blew towards Yi Jiadong like a gust of wind.
So, during the few hours of flight, Yi Jiadong received the best service and became the most favored handsome guy in the entire first-class cabin.
...
Although Yi Jiayi was employed by Mr. Zhao, the plastic king, on this trip to the Taiwan Strait, she was actually the eldest of the Zhao family. Her eldest sister Zhao Liwan suggested inviting the famous female detective in Hong Kong to help. Mr. Zhao
started from scratch. His eldest son who died was born when he was working hard. He had high hopes for him and had been working hard to cultivate him as a successor.
The news about the accidental death of the heir of the plastics tycoon has already set off the Taiwan media, and the rumors have been going on for a month.
The second son, Zhao Lihao, is a playboy, but since the eldest son has died, it is his turn in the traditional family of the plastics tycoon, where the family business is passed down from son to son and not daughter to daughter. Moreover, Zhao Lihao knows many strange people in the underworld, and it is said that he has connections with the Bamboo Union Gang.
As for the eldest sister, Zhao Liwan, although she looks a little ordinary, she is very smart and a genius in business. As the first child in the family, her father's business was just starting when she was born. Growing up in such an environment, she has been exposed to the most solid business methods. After he became an adult, he helped his father manage the business while studying. After graduating from abroad, he returned to China and took over all the businesses. He did a great job. Many older people even said that he was better than his father.
It has been said that if Zhao Liwan was a son, there would be no second choice for the Zhao family's business.
But according to Mr. Zhao's arrangement, after everything is stable, the country must belong to the boss. Others can get some money, but they will definitely not get a share of the family business.
The third son, Zhao Liqin, is still in college and has hardly entered the media's field of vision.
Mr. Zhao has four children. Judging from the surface information, the most suspicious ones are the second son, the playboy Zhao Lihao, and the angry eldest sister Zhao Liwan.
In this story, Yi Jiayi thought Zhao Liwan would be a successful woman who was fierce, ruthless and merciless.
But when she entered the Zhao family's house, she saw a woman with a gentle smile, not very tall, and not very fierce.
Zhao Lihao was exactly what the media described him as. He stood there lazily, looking at the two strangers who suddenly broke into the Zhao family with unfriendly eyes.
As soon as Yi Jiayi and her brother and sister got off the Kaohsiung Airport, they were taken directly to the seaside villa in the suburbs where Mr. Zhao lived by a specially sent luxury car.
When they were led into the living room, the three surviving children of the Zhao family were all there. Mr. Zhao sat in the right seat and received the guests who came from afar very politely.
Yi Jiadong smiled and greeted the old man, while Jiayi looked at everyone in the living room silently.
In addition to Mr. Zhao's one daughter and two sons, Mr. Zhao's successor, Zhao Lin, the mother of his youngest son Zhao Liqin, and
Zhao Wang Yuqing, the wife of the deceased Zhao Lide, were also sitting in the living room.
In the magnificent living room, even though everyone tried their best to show politeness and smile to the guests, they still couldn't hide the dead sadness and the strange and stiff atmosphere.
"Let Li Wan accompany you two to go around Kaohsiung tomorrow, see the scenery and do some shopping." Mr. Zhao chatted with the guests for a while and then showed a tired expression.
"Thank you." Jiayi nodded. When Zhao Lin helped Mr. Zhao stand up and prepare to leave, Jiayi looked up and asked directly: "Mr. Zhao, I need two whiteboards and all the information related to the current case. Who should I ask for them?"
"..." Mr. Zhao pursed his lips, his eyes swept across the faces of his two sons and one daughter, and finally settled on the old housekeeper Yabo, "Yabo, you will do your best to meet whatever Miss Yi needs."
"Okay, sir." Yabo nodded, accompanied Zhao Lin to send Mr. Zhao up the stairs, and then turned back. Then he cast his eyes on Zhao Liwan, as if to ask for her opinion.
Zhao Liwan stood up and glanced at Yi Jiayi and Yi Jiadong for a few seconds before she spoke, "You've traveled a long distance and must have been tired. Why don't you get some rest early? We have prepared large guest rooms facing the sun for both of you. Yabo has cleaned and dried the quilts in advance. I hope you two can get used to living here."
After that, Zhao Liwan nodded at Yabo, then turned to look at her two younger brothers and the eldest brother's widow, Zhao Wang Yuqing, "Everyone go back to sleep."
In the few seconds of giving orders, the seemingly gentle and ordinary eldest sister Zhao Liwan finally revealed the aura that had been accumulated from years of managing the family business. That unquestionable attitude could be conveyed with just a look.
Although Zhao Lihao was a little unhappy with his elder sister's attitude, he still said goodbye to Yi Jiadong and Yi Jiayi politely, turned around and left alone.
Zhao Liqin was very docile, with a childish look on his face, looking like a good boy.
Zhao Wang Yuqing had stopped smiling when Mr. Zhao left. When she heard Zhao Liwan talking, she just turned her head to glance at Yi Jiayi, then left without saying a word.
Jiayi looked at everyone's face, remembered their reactions, and then walked towards the guest room under the guidance of Yabo.
When turning the stairs and entering the corridor, Jiayi turned her head and saw Zhao Liwan still standing in the living room, looking up to see them leave. Most of the lights in the living room on the first floor were turned off. Zhao Liwan's face was half in shadow and half in dim light. Her facial features were dim and her emotions could not be seen clearly.
"Ms. Yi, I have copies of some police statements. I will send them to you later. However, those things can only be obtained through personal connections. Please read them in the villa. Do not take them out, take photos, or show them to others. Okay?" Yabo stood at the door of Yi Jiayi's room and said very politely before leaving.
"OK." Jiayi nodded to show her understanding.
After Jiayi entered the room, she threw her luggage aside and walked around the room first.
This guest room was indeed facing the sun as Zhao Liwan said, and there was a small study next to the bedroom, so that she could work in her room. This arrangement was very thoughtful.
She walked to the window, opened it, and was filled with the scent of the sea and the smell of spring's revival.
This villa is in a great location. You can see the sea from afar, and when you look down, you can see the courtyard that the Zhao family gardener has taken good care of. Early spring is the season when all flowers are in bud and about to bloom. Maybe when you open the window tomorrow, those heavy buds will have bloomed.
After receiving several boxes of documents sent by Yabo, Jiayi took a shower and then did her bedtime homework in her pajamas, reading and writing on the whiteboard.
...
At the same time, in the small bar on the second floor of the villa, Zhao Lihao stepped into the bar to get some wine.
When he saw Zhao Lin sitting in the bar, he didn't seem surprised at all.
Walking to Zhao Lin, who was sitting at the bar drinking and looking at the scenery outside the window, Zhao Lihao sat down next to her, snatched Zhao Lin's wine glass, and drank it without hesitation.
Then he handed the glass back to Zhao Lin, wiped his mouth and complained:
"Damn it, where did the old man invite this charlatan? A Hong Kong mountain monkey (countryman), staring at me as soon as I came in. Haven't you seen a good man? What the hell..."
"It was your good sister who suggested it. She said it was a Hong Kong female detective. You should be careful and don't lose your manners." Zhao Lin picked up a new glass, wiped the rim of the glass carefully, and poured another glass of wine for Zhao Lihao.
"What did Aunt Lin tell me to be careful about? You won't doubt me, will you?" Zhao Lihao frowned, pinched the glass and shook the wine, staring at Zhao Lin, but he didn't drink it.
"I don't care. Whether it's you or not, it has nothing to do with me." Zhao Lin raised her head and drank her glass of wine. After putting down the glass, she looked at Zhao Lihao deeply, smiled meaningfully, got off the high stool, turned around and walked away.
Zhao Lihao watched her leave with a gloomy face, his eyes were presumptuous and unfriendly.
Zhao Lin didn't care about his eyes at all, still swaying her waist, and walked away without recognizing her relatives.
Her presumptuous attitude of not taking him seriously made Zhao Lihao even more depressed.
Zhao Lihao gulped down the wine in his glass and thought angrily, from the old man to the vixen, no one in this house respected him. The eldest brother
died, and he was the future owner of the family. Did these people see the situation clearly? Shit!
The author has something to say:
In the order of sons, the ones who died were the eldest son Zhao (the eldest son Zhao Lide), the second son Zhao Lihao (the second son Zhao Lihao), and the weak third son (the youngest son Zhao Liqin).
Above the three sons was an older sister, Zhao Liwan.
