The Huo family study.
Huo Xiting, dressed in white loungewear, exuded elegance and nobility, sitting casually behind his desk.
"President Huo, Chen Huimei has made a move."
Upon hearing this, Huo Xiting raised an eyebrow, his expression cool and composed.
"Have you found out who the other party is?"
Wen Qing lowered her head, her tone somewhat grave; "Not for now. That account doesn't belong to Chen Feng, and I've also found that Chen Huimei has transferred money to that account more than once."
Huo Xiting's eyes flickered; "What do you mean?"
Wen Qing pondered for a moment before saying, "Chen Huimei also made remittances to that account a couple of years ago, but at that time Chen Feng and the Su family should have had no connection whatsoever."
Huo Xiting closed his eyes, his handsome face filled with contemplation.
"You mean, someone in the Su family does have a mental illness, but it's hard to say whether that person is Su Qingqing."
Wen Qing immediately nodded; "Yes."
Huo Xiting narrowed his eyes, his expression somewhat gloomy: "Wenqing, go and investigate who else in the Su family has a history of mental illness. Remember, investigate secretly."
Wen Qing nodded: "I understand, President Huo."
After saying this, Wenqing turned and left.
The study fell silent again. Huo Xiting took out a cigarette from his suit pocket and lit it.
His face was completely shrouded in bluish-white smoke, and his deep eyes held a thoughtful expression.
...
Su Yaoyao returned to the old house with a look of utter disappointment on her face, because she had failed again and had not been able to find out the relationship between the person in the ward and Chen Feng. At this moment, Su Yaoyao began to admire Bai Ruanruan's paparazzi-like investigative abilities.
The old lady was directing several gardeners to tend to the flowers and plants in the garden when she saw Su Yaoyao return. She immediately smiled and waved to her.
"Yaoyao, come here quickly."
Su Yaoyao suppressed her disappointment and walked over with a smile.
"Grandma, are you busy?"
The old lady smiled kindly; "The weather isn't so hot today, so I had someone trim the flowers in the garden. Some of these were bought by Chi Yan when he was young."
When I was young?
Su Yaoyao's lips twitched. No wonder she's her grandmother; she talks like Yu Chiyan is so old.
"Grandma, when were you referring to your youth...?"
Madam Yu smiled, her eyes crinkling. "When he was in his teens or twenties, he specially sent someone to find roses to plant. I thought he was strong-willed despite his disability, and that he had..."
As Madam Yu finished speaking, she seemed to suddenly remember something and paused, unable to speak.
Su Yaoyao stared at her with some confusion: "Grandma, what's wrong?"
A flicker of nervousness flashed across Madam Yu's eyes, but she then smiled nonchalantly.
"Well, it's nothing. It's all in the past, let's not talk about it."
Su Yaoyao lowered her eyes slightly, reached out to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear, and wore a faint smile on her face.
"Okay, Grandma, I'll go upstairs and take a shower first. I'm all sweaty."
Madam Yu smiled happily: "Go, go, go ahead."
Su Yaoyao nodded, and as she left, she glanced at the rose garden where the gardeners were carefully tending to the flowers, a thoughtful look flashing in her eyes.
...
Traction force.
As soon as Gu Tingmo returned to Nancheng, the drinking party was already prepared.
Yu Chiyan condescended to personally open a bottle of wine for Gu Tingmo.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Gu Tingmo patted his heart in surprise: "Wow, our CEO Yu is really different now that he's married. He even cares about his wife now."
Upon hearing this, Yu Chiyan glanced at him with cold eyes.
The smug look on Gu Tingmo's face disappeared, and his tone became more composed.
"This is what brothers should do."
Junxian and Nanjiangmu glanced at him at the same time, thinking that he was both incompetent and loved to play around.
Yu Chiyan was too lazy to argue with him, so he put away his coldness and spoke casually.
“If something happens to their two branches in Yuecheng, they will definitely send people over from Nancheng.”
After saying that, Yu Chiyan turned his gaze to Jun Xian: "These next few days, take your men and clean up the people in the South City."
Jun Xian nodded and then said, "The dark organization has too many branches, like a spider web. It can be cleaned up quickly but will come back again. If Ting Mo hadn't gone there under the guise of a woman, and if those people hadn't been unaware of Gu Ting Mo's background and hadn't been so careless, they wouldn't have been able to eliminate the dark organization branch in Yuecheng so easily."
Nanjiangmu was not involved in their affairs with the dark organization, but he was very clear about the grudges between that organization and Yu Chiyan.
Hearing Jun Xian's words, Nan Jiangmu couldn't help but speak up: "Chi Yan, your initial plan was to set a trap to lure them, including the mastermind behind them, to Nancheng and annihilate them in one fell swoop. Why did you suddenly change your mind and launch a surprise attack on the Yuecheng branch?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Chiyan put down his wine glass, a cold glint in his eyes.
"Because they touched people they shouldn't have touched."
The branch in Yuecheng was just a small lesson for them. He wanted to let those people know that they could mess with him, but not with his woman. Besides, Su Yaoyao was someone who couldn't stay idle. He couldn't keep her locked up at home forever, so he could only find a way to get those people away first.
Upon hearing this, the three of them clearly understood who Yu Chiyan meant by "the person who shouldn't be touched."
In a private room on the second floor of Yeli, the person Yu Chiyan mentioned was sharing a room with Jiang Wen and Huo Xiting.
Why did you choose a bar to discuss business?
Huo Xiting and Su Yaoyao exchanged a glance: "Weren't you in a bad mood these past few days? Talking about business is only part of the story; the important thing is that I'm treating you to drinks."
