Chapter 164: Hot
Chi Wan didn't expect that Zhou Huaian would be the one to bring up this issue.
She thought she had made things clear with Zhou Huaijin before and the matter had come to an end. It seemed that Zhou Huaijin did not tell Zhou Huaian about the follow-up.
Seeing that Chi Wan didn't speak at the first time, Zhou Huaian, perhaps thinking that his brother had some hope, tried to promote him: "Wan Wan, don't look at Huai Jin, who usually looks stupid when he is busy doing experiments, he is actually very careful.
"Besides, he has been a dedicated person since he was young, and he has a mild temper. He will not get angry unless his bottom line is touched. When facing people close to him, his bottom line is extremely low. He..."
"Brother Huai'an, I already have a boyfriend." Chi Wan suddenly interrupted Zhou Huai'an's spellcasting: "And my senior brother also knows about this."
Zhou Huaian's face froze as he tried to comfort his brother: "...boyfriend?"
Chi Wan nodded seriously: "Yes, boyfriend. I know that Senior Brother is a very good person and has always taken good care of me. I think he will definitely find someone better and more suitable for him."
Zhou Huaian smiled bitterly: "I got the good guy card you sent to Huai Jin... But when did you get a boyfriend? I haven't heard you mention it."
Chi Wan scratched his cheek and said, "Well, actually, the protective gear in my hand is also related to my boyfriend, but his identity is quite special, so it's hard to say it directly."
Zhou Huaian himself also felt that with his brother's personality, he might not be able to say anything even if Chi Wan started talking to someone else, so he wanted to help him.
Unexpectedly, I was still a step too late.
On the other hand, it also proved that his concerns were indeed correct.
He sighed, "Hey, I've been prepared for Huai Jin's personality. No wonder he looked so lost before. I thought it was simply because you excluded him when dealing with the He family. It turns out that he was heartbroken before he even opened his mouth."
Chi Wan seemed to feel awkward about this topic, so she simply changed the subject: "However, since the Wen family has already moved the business out, it shouldn't be that easy to stir up trouble again now."
Zhou Huaian glanced at her and said, "Although the Wen family has withdrawn most of their businesses, the connections they made before will not be cut off so quickly. What they want to do most now is to 'surrender', and you are naturally the best target.
"But it seems that you are not afraid of them even without my reminder."
Chi Wan's eyes widened: "Brother Huai'an, you can't say that. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you avoid a setback. You are my biggest source of information, I don't allow you to say that about yourself!"
Zhou Huaian couldn't hold back his expression and laughed: "You have such a big mouth... If it was just the Wen family, there would be nothing to be afraid of. Although they are also an old family, as mentioned before, most of their forces were originally in Hong Kong City.
"If we hadn't hit it off with the He family and let the He family serve as their vanguard, we wouldn't have been able to reach out so far. Now we can only rely on funds to find people abroad to serve as dogs for us.
"But the problem is that old-line families like these do have a lot of connections and are involved in almost every field, which makes it not that difficult for them to infiltrate the mainland. Especially with the help of foreign capital."
Chi Wan could imagine this: "After all, they haven't really fallen. Now that they have established a firm foothold outside, I'm afraid the first thing they will do is to use the power of foreign capital to 'regain lost ground'. As long as the remaining network of relationships still has enough benefits, they will naturally not be willing to give up the Wen family."
After all, expanding and deepening a network of relationships takes the efforts of several generations, and it is impossible to just give up.
The previous act of cutting off the tail to survive only shows that the head of the Wen family is ruthless and decisive enough, and facts have also proved that his choice was correct.
Zhou Huaian nodded in appreciation: "That's right. The Wen family can use others as a springboard, and foreign capital can also use them as gloves. It's nothing more than seeing who has the stronger situation. Now the whole world is watching our newly-released technological innovation and energy replacement, trying every means to find opportunities to get the most inside information.
"At this time, the Wen family's position is very popular. They will naturally not miss this opportunity to completely rise to the top."
After all, the greatest role of the Wen family is to provide a channel for those who have ideas about Chi Wan to get an opportunity.
Chi Wan held his chin with his hand, looking as if it had nothing to do with him: "It seems that I am quite popular. So, my dad used to treat it as a joke, saying that he was going to build an amusement park next to our factory... is it true?"
Zhou Huaian was amused. "What are you thinking about? Your factory is now a key protected object. They want to build an amusement park, but can they build it if they get approval? Instead of thinking about these things, you should pay more attention to the safety of the people around you. I'm worried that if they can't do anything to you, they will turn to the people around you."
Chi Wan smiled and said, "Then they will find out that I am the real soft persimmon. The people around me have a harder time breaking through than me."
Zhou Huaian said helplessly: "Come on, stop being so cocky, don't take those people lightly just because you have protection. The protective gear you have now can indeed guarantee your personal safety to the greatest extent, but have you ever thought that there are many ways to outsmart others without a head-on confrontation.
"Let's not talk about anything else. After the new generation of AI from Xiahou's company comes out, I'm afraid this field will also undergo a major innovation. What if someone uses AI to change someone's face and tricks them into killing them?
"Besides, those are all passive protections. If those people don't take violent measures and don't trigger the protection function, what are you going to do?"
Knowing that Zhou Huaian was concerned about him, Chi Wan did not refute him, but nodded obediently: "Don't worry, Brother Huaian, I know my limits. I have considered all that you said, and I will not give them any chance to take advantage of me. Here, this is for you."
She took out a small box from her backpack and handed it to Zhou Huaian.
Zhou Huaian took it and opened it, and saw that it was a thin protective clothing.
"This is……"
Chi Wan smiled and said, "Of course this is a gift to my most respected brother Huai An. I thought that collecting information would be risky, right? I heard from my senior brother that you went to Hong Kong in person to contain the Wen family and not give the He family a chance to help.
"Although I don't know what mission you have, it is more dangerous than it looks. You have helped me so much, and I have nothing to repay you. I can only do what I can.
"It's the latest model, and it hasn't been released yet. Wear it underneath, and no one will notice. It won't interfere with your work. It's warm in winter and cool in summer. How about it? Are you touched?"
