Si Mochen's narrow, long eyes flashed with a ruthless coldness, and his thin lips raised wantonly, "The Zhao family has been playing a sentimental game for so many years, and even used the fact that Old Master Zhao saved Grandpa in the past as an excuse to repeatedly demand benefits from the Si family. Grandpa is pushing me so hard this time, it's all because Old Master Zhao, eager to protect his granddaughter, put pressure on Grandpa, forcing Grandpa to marry into the Zhao family."
"Of course, Grandpa wants to find an obedient daughter-in-law to control me and make me a pawn in his hands. Zhao Sichun is naturally the most ideal candidate in his mind. After all, firstly, he can repay his gratitude, and secondly, he can turn Zhao Sichun into the second Chen Qin, making me a loser like Si Guangxu!"
But Si Mochen will not let him succeed.
He wanted to let his grandfather know that all the decisions he made were wrong.
He also wanted his grandfather to confess to his mother in person.
As for Zhao, she will only become a victim of her grandfather's desire for control. Even if he is willing to lend a helping hand to protect Zhao in the future, Zhao will never be involved with the Si family.
"Okay, you arrange the task and I will carry it out." An Yunxiang naturally supported Si Mochen's approach without any reason.
After all, Si Mochen had done him a favor, and he had sworn in this life that he would follow Si Mochen until death.
Because Yan Sen had been waiting for a long time and seemed to have something urgent to report, Si Mochen didn't say much and quickly ended the video call.
After the scene ended, Yan Sen hurried forward and said, "President, I just received news that someone is investigating your information behind your back."
When Si Mochen heard this, his pupils darkened.
He tapped his fingers on the table and said calmly, "Gu Bai?"
Yan Sen was surprised. "How did you know?"
What a brilliant plan! He hadn't even revealed the other party's identity yet, but Si Mochen had already hit the nail on the head.
"He's interested in Zhichu, so he'll definitely investigate all of her information. And I, your nominal husband, will naturally become the subject of his investigation."
This is a common trick used by people of their status. Just like when he learned of Gu Bai's existence, his first reaction was to find out Gu Bai's background.
However, he is not afraid of being investigated. All his information is encrypted and blocked. As a doctor, An Yunxiang also has good hacking skills and can protect all his information very well.
Therefore, no matter how Gu Bai investigated, he would not be able to find any information about him.
"This Gu Bai is really ungrateful. You have taken the initiative to come forward, but he still won't give up." When Yan Sen said this, he secretly broke into a cold sweat for Gu Bai in his heart.
Who wouldn't covet someone's woman? Why does he have to look at his boss Mo Chen's woman? Isn't this courting death?
"If I'm not mistaken, he has investigated Zhichu's marital status."
In order to deal with the Si and Zhao families, Si Mochen had someone forge the documents of his and Xia Zhichu's divorce. Therefore, as long as they went to the Civil Affairs Bureau for an in-depth investigation, all they would get were clues about Xia Zhichu's divorce.
It is precisely because of this that Gu Bai was so bold to approach Xia Zhichu. After all, anyone has a chance with an unmarried woman.
"Then what are you going to do next? Are you going to let this Gu Bai continue to get close to Madam?" Yan Sen didn't understand what Si Mochen was thinking. He only knew that he had been very jealous recently and would definitely take action.
Si Mochen pinched his brows and spoke after deep consideration, "Create a crisis for Gu Bai's studio so that he won't have the energy to bother Zhichu recently."
Yan Sen nodded and said, "Okay, I'll do it right away."
…
Xia Zhichu fell asleep as soon as he came back and slept until seven o'clock in the evening.
When I woke up, I was so hungry that I got out of bed and wanted to cook something to eat, but I found that the refrigerator was empty.
In the past, she would always go out to buy some ingredients from time to time. She didn’t like eating out because it was too expensive. Cooking at home was healthy and hygienic, and most importantly, it could save money.
But ever since Chu Tiantian came back, she has asked her out to dinner again and again, and with the recent incident with Liu Jiajia, she has forgotten to go out shopping.
Xia Zhichu looked at the time. It seemed unrealistic to buy groceries and cook them at this time.
After thinking about it, she decided to go downstairs and have something to eat.
After packing up briefly, she went out with her bag on her back. Perhaps because it rained yesterday, the temperature was a little chilly today. Xia Zhichu pulled down her coat and hugged herself, then walked towards the store downstairs.
At this moment, a white car slowly stopped in front of her.
Xia Zhichu wanted to go around, but saw the car window slowly lowered and the woman inside called her.
"Wait, Miss Xia."
Xia Zhichu suddenly stopped and looked inside the car, looking at the other person in confusion, "Auntie, do I know you?"
The person in front of him looked to be in her forties. She was dressed elegantly and luxuriously. She took good care of herself and had a great temperament. Xia Zhichu just felt that her face was very unfamiliar. He had no memory of seeing this woman before.
"You don't know me, but I know you."
Chen Qin gestured for Xia Zhichu to get in the car.
Xia Zhichu stood there hesitating for a long time, not knowing whether to get in the car.
Chen Qin could see through her vigilance and confessed her identity, "Don't be afraid, I am Xiaochen's mother."
As soon as these words fell, Xia Zhichu's heart immediately tightened.
Si Mochen's mother?
This is her mother-in-law!
Xia Zhichu pursed her lips. She had imagined the scene of meeting her mother-in-law before, but she didn't expect to meet her under such circumstances.
She got into the car a little nervously because the heater was on and even though the car was spacious, she still felt suffocated.
After all, she wasn't ready to meet her mother-in-law.
"Have you eaten?" Chen Qin asked.
This time, she did not tell Mr. Si that she came out because she wanted to understand Xia Zhichu and consider what to do next.
After all, Xiaochen values this woman too much. If he takes her lightly, it will only exacerbate the conflicts in the family, which is a result she does not want to see.
Xia Zhichu shook his head, but soon realized something was wrong and nodded, "I've already... eaten it."
Seeing her nervous look, Chen Qin put on a faint smile and said, "I haven't eaten yet. Please have a meal with me."
After saying that, without giving Xia Zhichu a chance to refuse, he drove directly towards the city center.
Along the way, Xia Zhichu was nervous and his palms were covered with cold sweat.
She didn't know why Chen Qin was looking for her, but she saw the temperament of a noble lady in Chen Qin, and she knew very well that Si Mochen's family background was indeed not simple.
Maybe it is just as Chu Tiantian said, either he comes from a wealthy family or he is a rich second generation.
Ten minutes later, the car stopped in front of a high-end Western restaurant.
When Xia Zhichu got out of the passenger seat, he noticed that the car Chen Qin was driving was actually a Porsche.
Suddenly, she was even more nervous, and her mind was in a mess. She didn't dare to think that the man she had married so quickly was a rich second-generation man from a wealthy family.
