Chapter 227 A Powerful Couple Joining Forces?!
"Honey, no, even if you're pregnant, normal people need to eat too. You're not allowed to say that again!"
Hearing that she would refuse to eat anything to stop vomiting for his sake, Mu Yin refused with a serious expression.
Cheng Shu also said, "That's right, daughter-in-law, don't do anything foolish. It's just that you ate something and A-Yin threw up. It's not a big deal. Let him handle it himself!"
Mu Yin was stabbed in the back by his own mother again, but for his beloved wife, he was willing to endure anything.
Song Chi looked worried: "Uncle, but what about your health..."
Mu Yin held her hand: "Baby, don't worry. Eat when you're hungry. Don't starve yourself for my sake, understand?"
Seeing his serious expression, and knowing she couldn't persuade him otherwise, she had no choice but to nod.
"Um."
She nodded obediently, but the thought that he would vomit violently whenever she ate made her feel guilty.
She had a sudden inspiration: "Uncle, how about this? From now on, when I eat, I'll keep my distance from you. Who knows, it might ease your pain."
Mu Yin frowned: "Can't we dine together from now on? Does it have to be this way?"
"Give it a try, what if it works? Besides, your body can't take it if you keep vomiting like this, uncle, just agree for now."
He softened as soon as she acted cute.
"Okay, let's give it a try. If it doesn't work, we'll still eat together in the future."
"Uh, okay..."
After this ordeal, Mu Yin finally believed the reason why he was vomiting so badly.
Song Chi looked up and checked the time.
"Uncle, it's 8:30. You should be heading to work by now."
Mu Yin then remembered that he still had things to take care of.
"Okay, I'll go now."
He gazed at her, his eyes filled with deep affection.
He turned his head and looked at Cheng Shu: "Mom, please take good care of her for me."
Cheng Shu waved her hand: "Get lost, get lost, don't bother us, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law."
Mu Yin shook his head helplessly. Some daughters-in-law really have forgotten about their sons!
He got up, and before leaving, he kissed her forehead, repeatedly telling her to eat well, sleep well, and not to overwork herself.
Song Chi nodded in agreement. Thinking about what happened at work yesterday, she wanted to tell him about it, but she was afraid that he wouldn't have enough time at work, so she didn't mention it.
Even after he left, she still thought he was unaware of what the studio had posted.
Early in the morning, Song Chi was deeply moved by her uncle, but because of this small matter, she felt that her uncle had neglected her, and she felt a little sad.
Cheng Shu peeled an orange beside her, taking in her emotions.
"My dear wife, such a big thing happened at the studio yesterday, haven't you told A-Yin yet?"
She spoke while feeding her oranges.
Song Chi nodded and ate the food she offered.
“Mom, this happened again this morning. I didn’t have time to tell him right away, and besides, he’s busy with work, so I don’t want to burden him…”
Cheng Shu recalled that early this morning, she saw that all topics related to 'Xiao Chi Jewelry' had been removed from all platforms and users had been banned.
She could guess with her toes that Mu Yin already knew about this and had decisively helped Song Chi in secret.
Right now, Song Chi is unaware of Mu Yin's secret help!
She smiled and said, "My dear wife, you're right. However, after last night, the online discussion isn't as exaggerated anymore, and things are starting to look better..."
"Really? I'll go check!"
Song Chi took out his phone to check.
She only realized when she looked that all the topics about her had been taken down.
Now, netizens can no longer post phrases like "boycott internet celebrity Xiaochi," knowing they've been banned. They're jokingly suggesting she has a powerful backer.
Some bloggers, in order to publish their work, gave her a nickname, "The Woman Next to the Boss," claiming that it would take the Boss so many targets to get her banned across the entire internet, and that this Boss could absolutely not be her driver husband!
In the comments section, everyone is commenting.
"I envy Xiao Chi, having a powerful figure cleaning up her messes behind the scenes, but one thing is for sure, this powerful figure can't possibly be her driver husband..."
"Poor Xiaochi's husband is being cuckolded."
"Upstairs, is it possible that Xiaochi's driver husband is that chaebol tycoon...?"
Song Chi sighed and facepalmed: "Mom, what's wrong with this generation of netizens? They started by boycotting me, and now they're making fun of me, saying I'm 'the woman next to a big shot,' and some people are even saying that the uncle is that tycoon..."
"I can't believe they came up with this!"
Cheng Shu smiled and muttered softly, "Is it possible that your man really is a tycoon...?"
"Huh? Mom, what did you say?"
Her voice was too soft for Song Chi to hear clearly.
Cheng Shu's smile was a little stiff; she didn't want to be like that jerk and deceive her precious wife.
She quickly changed the subject: "Nothing, I just said I'm full, shall we go shopping?"
"Uh, okay, but I need to go to the studio."
Let's go!
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law packed their things and set off for the studio.
However, Song Chi felt a little uneasy.
Actually, although Cheng Shu spoke softly, she still heard half of it.
She said, "...is a tycoon," but I didn't hear the whole thing. My subconscious feeling was that she meant, "Your man is a tycoon..."
Song Chi's heart was pounding, and her eyelids were twitching. She forced herself to suppress her emotions, otherwise she would start overthinking.
On the other side...
Mu Yin got into a luxury car, where Ye Xiu had been waiting for a long time.
"Mr. Mu, this document contains background information on the employees of Mrs. Mu's studio, and this USB drive contains the surveillance footage from the day of the incident..."
"Our people worked through the night to screen and found a suspicious spot."
Mu Yin responded with an "Oh?" with interest.
"Mr. Mu, please take a look."
Ye Xiu took out his tablet and played the edited surveillance footage.
Records show that Xiaoyu left the operating room acting suspiciously as she went to the packing room, which was also monitored by surveillance cameras, keeping track of her every move.
The footage shows that Xiaoyu went to a blind spot where she couldn't be filmed. What she did there is impossible to verify!
However, the screen then switched to another image.
At the same time Xiaoyu reached the blind spot, Li Bowen, who had been sleeping on the chair, suddenly came to the doorway, seemed to see something, and even recorded it with his phone...
Upon seeing this, Mu Yin's gaze darkened, his eyes radiating a cold light.
"Xiaoyu? Li Bowen!"
"Mr. Mu, Li Bowen is just a petty thug, and Xiaoyu comes from a poor family and has a criminal record for theft..."
"Xiaoyu went to the blind spot, and we couldn't see what she did. Then, Li Bowen was right at the door, seemingly having witnessed everything. We suspect he took photos as evidence..."
"Mr. Mu, please take a look at this surveillance video."
Another surveillance video shows Xiaoyu going to the tea room, where she was stopped by Li Bowen. Due to the camera angle, it is unclear what the two discussed, but Li Bowen ultimately left first.
Another video shows Li Bowen walking out of his studio with a handful of cash in his hand!
Mu Yin's gaze turned icy.
"You, Li Bowen, not only did you stand by and watch others do bad things, but you also used it to blackmail them for hush money. You and your father are truly born bad!"
"Mr. Mu, what's the next step?"
Mu Yin pondered for a moment, then said, "Let's go to the police station. I need to meet him..."
Meanwhile, Song Chi also arrived at the studio.
Last night, Tang Xin spent the entire night watching the surveillance footage in the studio and finally found a clue. She told Song Chi everything.
Song Chi also saw the shady dealings between Xiao Yu and Li Bowen, and he was furious.
"That bastard Li Bowen!"
"Master, what should we do next?"
Song Chi pondered for a moment: "Mom, take me to the police station. I need to talk to Li Bowen in person..."
Little did Song Chi know that she and her uncle were remarkably in sync, having discovered this clue at the same time and going to the police station together to verify it.
Is this another powerful alliance between the couple?
