When Meng Sheng heard this, he inexplicably felt that there was something fishy about what he said.
It was as if he had said it on purpose for her to hear.
how?
Want her to volunteer to help him?
But she pretended not to understand, with a worried look on her face, and comforted her softly, "Don't worry, Dad has always valued you and loves you, and he will definitely not really ignore you.
Maybe this incident has had too much of an impact, and Dad has been having a headache lately, but there will always be a way to solve it."
Shang Boyu turned his head to look at the worry in her eyes, pursed his lips, and nodded after a long while.
While the car was waiting for the green light at the intersection, he seemed to have just remembered to ask, "By the way, Shengsheng, have Qinjiang Group and Xu's Real Estate always had business cooperation?"
look……
If you don't respond to what he says, he will always find a way to bring it up.
Meng Sheng sneered in his heart, and was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "This... I really don't know. It's not my turn to interfere in the affairs of the Xu Group."
That's true.
Shang Boyu kept chewing the words he wanted to say in his mouth until they were almost torn apart, but he still couldn't say them out.
The Xu family is a real estate tycoon in Beijing. If the Xu family comes forward, then project cooperation with Qin Jiang will be much easier.
Even if the middleman He wanted to reap the benefits, Qin Jiang would not easily admit it.
To put it bluntly, in his current situation, he can only rely on Meng Sheng so that he can overcome all obstacles without having to worry about other forces.
He felt guilty towards Shengsheng. He always felt that... since he asked her to help rescue his mother and then asked her to save the company, it was no different from his mother using her.
In the end, he could only swallow back what he wanted to say and said with a smile, "I was so anxious that I lost my temper. I'll call my cousin later to ask about this."
Meng Sheng listened and nodded.
But she was sure in her heart that he didn't dare to contact anyone in the Xu family.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have run around for so many days regarding Yu Qionghua's matter, and would have gone to the Xu family for help long ago.
The reason why she had to say it was not only because she felt guilty and couldn't bring herself to do it, but also because the Xu family was more likely to be soft-hearted towards her.
This high-sounding affection has long been mixed with many impurities.
It can't be bleached anyway.
Shang Boyu suppressed his disappointment and continued the topic, "Did my uncle say anything about my mother? What's the situation now?"
Meng Sheng was stunned. Thinking of what Pei Sui said today, he could only make up some half-truths.
"My uncle called me this morning and said that the police have almost finished their investigation and are preparing to close the case and hand it over to the procuratorate."
Shang Boyu panicked and gripped the steering wheel harder, "Then..."
Meng Sheng interrupted him, "My uncle meant that we should not rush. This case has attracted too much attention and involves so many wealthy families. Mom is the boss of Yueqifang.
If you act too hastily, you may end up making things worse. He probably wants to wait until the case is heard in court, so that the impact will be less."
When Shang Boyu heard this, his panic was instantly calmed down.
Yes, this matter cannot be rushed.
It is always a bit unrealistic to want to get someone out before the case is closed.
He smiled and said, "Uncle is right, we just need to wait patiently for this matter."
"Um."
Meng Sheng responded indifferently.
When he got home, Aunt Zhang had already prepared some of the dishes. Shang Boyu washed his hands and went into the kitchen to get busy.
After he had prepared the four dishes and a soup and brought them out, he was about to go upstairs to call Meng Sheng down for dinner when his cell phone, which he had forgotten on the dining table, suddenly rang with a crisp text message alert.
He picked it up and took a look.
This number doesn't look like it's from Beijing.
Nor was it someone he had made a note of in his address book.
Content: [Yueqifang was investigated, and the whistleblower behind it was your wife Meng Sheng. ]
He was startled, his peach blossom eyes behind the lenses showed surprise, and his originally relaxed back instantly tensed up.
impossible!
Shengsheng had no idea about Yueqifang's affairs. After her mother was arrested, she had been very concerned about her mother's situation and even went back to the north of the city to ask her uncle for help.
How could Shengsheng, who is so dedicated and hardworking, be the whistleblower?
He denied it over and over again in his mind. Looking at the number, his eyes darkened and took on a sinister look, and he called back directly.
But a mechanical female voice came from the other end of the phone: [Sorry, the number you dialed is turned off and cannot be connected at the moment.]
He hung up the phone and frowned deeply.
Who sent this text message?
What's the purpose?
Deliberately sowing discord?
Shang Boyu pursed his lips and dialed a number from the address book. "Help me check the number. I want all the information about the owner of the number as soon as possible."
After the phone call was hung up, Meng Sheng, who had just taken a shower and changed into pajamas, came down.
At a distance of five or six meters, Meng Sheng was caught off guard and bumped into his deep pupils, which were like a thousand-year-old dark pool, bottomless and one could feel a distinct chill.
She was stunned. What does this look mean?
As soon as she began to have doubts in her heart, the emotion in Shang Boyu's eyes softened.
"I was just about to go up and call you, but you came down. Come and sit down. It's time to eat. I made your favorite sweet and sour pork ribs tonight. Try it and see if the sugar color has cooked through."
He put his phone down, waved at her, and considerately pulled out the dining chair for her.
The voice was still gentle and smiling, just like usual.
It seemed as if the fleeting scrutiny and indifference just now were all her illusion.
Meng Sheng pursed his lips and looked at the phone he placed on the table.
Could something have happened in Yu Qionghua’s case?
still……
Ning Weiwei contacted him again?
This possibility is quite high.
She suppressed her doubts, walked over and sat down, picked up the chopsticks and tasted the sweet and sour spare ribs first.
It is sweet but not greasy, with moderate acidity, which does not overpower the original taste of the ribs, and the meat is firm but not dry.
He has been making sweet and sour pork ribs for many years and has become more and more skilled.
"Delicious." She commented with a smile.
"If it tastes good, eat more." Shang Boyu sat opposite her, put another piece of pork ribs into her bowl, and suddenly said, "Shengsheng, I'm going to have to trouble you with Mom's affairs.
I've made up my mind. When mom is released, we will send her abroad to recuperate. What do you think?"
Meng Sheng was stunned.
His words were too abrupt.
She somehow caught the clue.
Could it be that the phone he just touched is really related to Yu Qionghua’s matter?
Why then...
Under his gaze, she didn't have much time to think. She raised her eyes with delight and nodded with a smile.
"Sure. After Mom comes out, she won't be suitable to live in Beijing anymore. We can buy her a house abroad and go there every year to spend some time with her and spend the New Year with her.
But have you decided which country to go to? It would be best if the life is slow, the pace is not so fast, and the temperature is moderate. "
