Chapter 393: Another Defeat
"A lot, thank you Mr. Chi for your concern."
"Then I won't disturb Mr. Huo and this lady from having a meal."
After drinking the wine in the glass, Chi Siyi looked at Xiao Muzhen calmly, then turned and left the box.
Xiao Muzhen always felt that there was a hint of scrutiny in the other person's eyes when he looked at her.
"Is she your partner?"
Huo Yunting turned his head to look at Xiao Muzhen, nodded and said, "Yes, she is also your aunt."
Xiao Muzhen's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he frowned and said, "But the way she looked at me just now didn't look like she knew me at all."
"When you were born, she had already married and moved to the capital, so you had never met before. She suddenly came over to toast just now. I guess someone who knew you was also having dinner here and saw you, so she came over to confirm it."
She hasn't recovered her old memories yet, so even if someone she knows appears in front of her, she definitely won't recognize them.
While he was distracted, Huo Yunting had already dialed Ke Ning's number.
"Go check who Chi Siyi is inviting to dinner at Yuerong Mansion tonight."
In less than five minutes, Koning replied.
Seeing the name Chi Zhen, Huo Yunting's expression changed, and he said in a deep voice, "Zhen Zhen, the person having dinner with your aunt is your biological father...Chi Zhen."
…
After returning to the box, Chi Siyi looked at Chi Zhen and asked, "Have you called Chi Xuan?"
Chi Zhen nodded, "Xuan Xuan said she is at home now."
Chi Siyi's face darkened. After returning to her seat, she whispered, "I've confirmed that the woman next to Huo Yunting does look exactly like Chi Xuan."
"It's actually Chi Muzhen! She's not dead?!"
"When you heard the news of her death three years ago, didn't you go and confirm it yourself?"
Chi Zhen frowned. "Xiaobao was also kidnapped at that time. When she was found, she was already dumb. I was busy looking for a doctor to treat Xiaobao and had no time to take care of this matter. Who knew she would actually fake her death!"
Chi Siyi was silent for a few seconds, then slowly said, "When I went in just now, she didn't seem to recognize me. Let's ignore this matter for now. As long as it doesn't affect the company, just treat her as dead."
Chi Zhen had a bad feeling in his heart, and always felt that what the Feng Shui master said was going to come true.
He took a deep breath to suppress his worries, nodded and said, "Well, next week the Chi family's focus will be shifting to the capital. This time, I'm betting my entire fortune on this. I must succeed in gaining a foothold in the capital!"
Chi Siyi smiled and said, "With me here, what are you worried about? Once the branch is established, I will find a way to help Chishi get some big projects. As long as we do a good job and build a good reputation, there will be a steady stream of orders in the future."
Chi Zhen poured a glass of wine for Chi Siyi and said with a smile: "Sister, then thank you first!"
"You're welcome. If the Chi family can thrive in the capital, I will have a much greater say in my husband's family in the future."
Over the years, just because she only gave birth to a daughter, Old Madam Li always looked down on her. No matter how she tried to please her, she was always very cold to her. And her husband was unreliable. If she wanted to have a place in the Li family, she had to fight for it on her own!
After the two finished their meal, Chi Siyi sent Chi Zhen back to the villa and left.
Chi Zhen returned home and after thinking it over, he told Xu Rou about what he saw Xiao Muzhen in the restaurant today.
However, after hearing this, Xu Rou didn't show any surprise at all. She just frowned and said, "I didn't expect what Xuanxuan said to be true. Chi Muzhen is not dead!"
Chi Zhen was stunned for a moment, then quickly asked, "You knew about this a long time ago?!"
"Before we came to the capital, Xuanxuan mentioned this to me. I thought she was seeing things, so I didn't take it seriously."
Chi Zhen's expression changed, and he snorted coldly, "Since she has been hiding this from us, we will just pretend that we don't have this daughter!"
At this moment, Xu Rou was only thinking about the baby in her belly. She didn't even have time to care about Chi Xuan, let alone Chi Muzhen, whom she always disliked.
"Yeah, I understand."
On the other hand, after knowing that Chi Zhen was her biological father but only treated her as a tool to bring benefits to the Chi family, Xiao Muzhen no longer had any good feelings towards this biological father.
However, she simply felt that such a person was not worthy of being a father, and she did not feel sad or aggrieved at all.
But she didn't expect that they would meet so soon.
A few days later, one afternoon, Yan Nan called her into his office and said with a smile, "Xiao Sheji, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Chi, the president of Chi Corporation. Their company used to be very successful in Chengdu, but now they are planning to shift their focus to Beijing. We have a cooperation agreement with them, and I plan to hand this project over to you."
Xiao Muzhen looked at the man sitting on the sofa and was about to speak, but when the man saw her face clearly, his expression suddenly became extremely ugly.
“It’s you!”
Xiao Muzhen raised an eyebrow, "Mr. Chi, do you know me?"
Chi Zhen sneered, "Chi Muzhen, don't pretend to be ignorant. Did you already know that it was the Chi Group that was collaborating with Qingshang?"
Xiao Muzhen was about to speak when she suddenly realized something. Her last name was Chi, and this man's last name was also Chi. Could he be her biological father?!
Oh my god…
Could there be anything more outrageous than this?!
"Boss Chi, I just found out about this because Manager Yan called me over. If you are not satisfied with me, you can change a designer."
Chi Zhen sneered, "Not only will I change a designer, I will also let your company fire you!"
Xiao Muzhen frowned, his eyes turning cold, "I'm afraid Mr. Chi doesn't have this ability."
"You! You're so good! After not seeing you for three years, you've grown so strong that you even dare to talk back to me!"
Sensing the tense atmosphere between the two, Yan Nan quickly asked, "Boss Chi, do you know Xiao Sheji?"
Chi Zhen's eyes flashed with surprise, "You said her last name is Xiao?!"
He even changed his last name. It seems he really intends to cut off ties with them!
Yan Nan nodded. "Well, Xiao's design skills are quite good, and the design style of this project is exactly what Xiao is good at. I suggest that we don't change the designer."
"no!"
Chi Zhen flatly refused and said coldly: "Manager Yan, I not only want to change the designer, but also ask your company to fire her!"
Seeing him being so unreasonable, Yan Nan's face darkened. "Boss Chi, if you must change the designer, I can help you. As for whether or not to fire Xiao Designer, this is an internal matter of our company. I hope Boss Chi won't interfere!"
Chi Zhen stood up suddenly, staring at Yan Nan and said, "If you are unwilling to fire her, the cooperation between Chi and Qingshang will be as if it never happened!"
