Chapter 955: Find a Godparent

Huo Xingzhou was a little surprised: "So fast?"

"Yes, I have sent people to verify it. It should be true, but not certain enough." Old Chen glanced at Sun Weimeng and did not say the content of the news.

Sun Weimeng muttered: "You have a secret, but you can't even tell me. I am such a miserable person."

"Young Master Sun, I..."

Lao Chen wanted to explain, but Sun Weimeng covered his ears and ran out of the room.

Although he looked careless, he knew what to listen to and what not to listen to. Old Chen obviously had something to hide, so Sun Weimeng avoided him.

Old Chen watched Sun Weimeng walk away in a flash, and couldn't help but praise him: "Young Master Sun knows when to advance and when to retreat, which is quite good. The main reason is that the source of the news is Miss Xia, and I'm afraid he will be uneasy after hearing it."

Old Chen knew very well that Xia Sisi was a chess piece that the young master had planted next to Zhao Qin, and she also worked hard to get close to Li Nianqi.

Such an inconspicuous little star actually became the key to shaking the situation.

Huo Xingzhou asked: "What's the news?"

"Ms. Xia asked Ms. Li to go out with her, and Ms. Li agreed at first. But she changed her mind and said that her family was very strict and she couldn't go out casually in the next two days."

Many things can be inferred from the details.

Li Cheng didn't want Li Nianqi to go out during these two days.

What are you afraid of?

"Has Pei Zheng already transferred the money to the accounts of those old shareholders?"

"Master, you are really good at predicting things. I made the payment this morning."

It was impossible to transfer such a large sum of money silently without revealing any information. And Huo Xingzhou had been sending people to keep an eye on it, so how could he miss such a big news?

"Old Chen, where did Pei Zheng get his money from?"

When Huo Xingzhou asked this, he already had the answer in his mind.

The banquet last night was given by Li Cheng.

I don't know what conditions the two of them negotiated to make Li Cheng willingly pay so much money.

"Hey, Master, you are asking even though you already know the answer."

"Li Cheng would actually take such a big risk for Pei Zheng. It seems that the cooperation between the two is closer than I thought." Is Li Cheng so sure that Pei Zheng will be able to ship the goods and recover his investment this time?

What do they rely on?

Huo Xingzhou checked it over and over in his mind. He wanted to know what Pei Zheng was selling so that he could catch him.

"Old Chen, go check all of the Pei family's docks and freight channels in the imperial capital."

The reason for checking the docks is that those things may not be transported out through other channels. But to ensure that there is no risk of error, we must also check.

He suspected that Pei Zheng and Li Cheng were setting off smoke bombs.

Pei Zheng has no money!

He will definitely make money from this business, smuggling is inevitable.

But he is also very aware that others are eyeing him and trying to catch him, so he will be more cautious than before, and even do a lot of superficial work to confuse others.

Huo Xingzhou instinctively felt that Pei Zheng would not take another risk at the Thirteen Bays Pier.

But what if Pei Zheng wants to play a trick?

Huo Xingzhou rubbed his brows and said, "Send more people to investigate the anomalies in these places."

If I miss this opportunity, it will be very difficult to find fault with Pei Zheng again. After this time, Pei Zheng will probably stay dormant for a long, long time.

"Yes, Master. Actually, we can have a more convenient way and source of information..." Old Chen's tone was somewhat tentative, "We can borrow someone from Master Zhong."

He didn't want to say it originally.

The relationship between Master Shao and Master Zhong is really too complicated.

But the matter was of great importance, so he spoke out anyway.

"Borrow Feiluan? I'll tell you."

Feiluan and Zhongyi have a strong relationship and can hack into some databases. If you want to find Pei Zheng's abnormality, maybe you should ask Feiluan for help.

"Okay, I'll go down first then."

Old Chen didn't dare to look at Huo Xingzhou's expression again, for fear that he would feel it was humiliating to ask for mercy from the enemy.

Huo Xingzhou didn't think much about it.

Zhong Yi is now living and eating at the Huo family, so what's wrong with asking him for help?

It’s not like he doesn’t give any reward!

"Young Master, breakfast is ready." Aunt Qian knocked on the door outside to remind him.

"knew."

…

After a moment.

The Huo family's dining table was particularly lively.

Zhong Yi and Wan Jiang sat on one side, Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou sat on the other side. Sun Weimeng, on the other hand, sat alone at one side, eating breakfast. He had tried hard to restrain himself from watching the two men fighting.

Aunt Qian served Zhong Yi some light meals. "Mr. Zhong, just tell me what you want to eat. I can also cook the medicinal food made by the young lady. There are also special dishes from our Haicheng. The young lady is not as good as me in cooking."

She said that on purpose.

He hinted to Zhong Yi that he should not disturb his young lady unless necessary.

"Thank you, Aunt Qian." Zhong Yi said with a faint smile, "But speaking of cooking, I miss the food I ate when I was a child. But if Qiao Xi is not convenient, I won't force it."

"Mr. Zhong, you are so considerate of our young lady. By the way, I got up very early too. Let's push Mr. Zhong around the garden tomorrow."

When Sun Weimeng heard Aunt Qian say this, he couldn't help but raise his thumb.

Old ginger is still spicy.

"Don't bother Aunt Qian about this matter. Wan Jiang will take care of it." Zhong Yi found it a little funny that the people around Huo Xingzhou treated him like a monster and were on guard against him.

Huo Xingzhou neither stopped nor condoned it.

Qiao Xi placed a bowl of fresh soy milk in front of Zhong Yi, "I've tried the sweet soy milk you like, and it doesn't have any bean smell."

Then he poured Huo Xingzhou a glass of milk and said, "You've been staying up late a lot recently. You'll feel better if you drink some hot milk."

This bowl of water is held so evenly.

Huo Xingzhou took two sips of the milk. He was not so stingy as to get angry over a bowl of sweet bean milk. He just said lightly: "Pei Zheng has made a big move recently, and he needs to borrow Fei Luan from you."

Zhong Yi smiled slightly: "Fei Luan is not my subordinate. As long as you can afford the price, she will help."

"Please help me make the contact."

"No problem, I can pay for it as well. This is our common enemy, you do the work and I pay. Whether we can defeat the Pei family in one fell swoop this time depends on you."

Zhong Yi has countless assets under his control, and after Zhong Lingxiao's commotion, Zhong Yi was not idle either.

The wealth is countless.

Even if he didn't return to the Zhong family, he would have enough money to last him a lifetime.

Huo Xingzhou half-closed his eyes and handed Qiao Xi a plate of fruit. Qiao Xi took a bite of the fruit and felt the fresh and tender fruit fragrance between her lips and teeth. She didn't like greasy food recently, and only liked to eat some fruit and soup.

Zhong Yi sat on one side and could only hear the slight rustling of tableware.

He couldn't see the expressions of the crowd, so he put down his cutlery and said softly, "I also have something to trouble Mr. Huo."

Huo Xingzhou raised his eyes, "What's the matter?"

"Qiao Xi and I mentioned that we wanted to become relatives with the Huo family."
