Su Chen's expression darkened as he hesitated for a moment . “Get Ah Mo to investigate it thoroughly when he's over there this time . We might be able to find something out . ”
“Qi Qiming is really skilled at anti-spying . His background has made him really sensitive about it . I tried sending people to follow him, but all of them lost him somewhere . He must be really vigilant . ”
Mu Yuchen's expression turned serious as well while a cold light was emitted from his deep, dark eyes .
Su Chen suddenly thought about it and asked, “How's the investigation on the accident in City B? Don't tell me it's really just an accident . It doesn't add up . That's the Gu family's turf . You might've been watched the whole time you were there . Moreover, it's such massive news that you came back to take over Glory World . They must have been aware . ”
Mu Yuchen put aside the spices he just mixed, then he took the potatoes Su Chen washed and started slicing them up . His expression returned to his usual calmness .
“The driver is in the last stage of lung cancer and he's unconscious now . Before that, his lover suddenly received a transaction of $200,000 . After some investigation, we found out the driver transferred it to her, but the clues ended right there . ”
Mu Yuchen's voice was calm, but Su Chen frowned . “So, the driver might have something about that person? Didn't you check his account?”
“The driver banked the cash in . We couldn't get any useful information about it unless the driver can talk . ”
Su Chen held his forehead . “This seems really tricky . I think you should be more careful as I'm feeling quite uneasy about this . If someone were behind this, they'd be coming for you . You should be more alert from now on . Assign more bodyguards with you . You've got many anyway . ”
He continued, apparently worried about it, “I'm worried that the Gu family or the Qi family might be behind this . You'll be in a very passive position . Be careful before we're clear what's happening . The enemy is in the dark, after all, so be cautious . ”
“Don't worry . They need to reevaluate themselves if they really want to come at me . ”
Su Chen shrugged when he heard Mu Yuchen's relaxed tone . “You're really not worried at all, huh? You'd better take care of yourself . If something happens to you, your wife might just go down with you . I know it's not something nice to hear, but I don't think she can take a second blow now . I heard from Lingshi that Xiaye almost broke down when Elder Xi passed away . ”
When Xi Xiaye was mentioned, Mu Yuchen's expression was not as cool as before . He paused his a little . “She's just like that . She's very fragile emotionally . Although she's a totally different person than when she's at work, I'm used to it already . ”
Su Chen laughed and teased him, “Look at you caring about her . Are you really a man?”
“A real man cares about his woman . Smart men should be like me . Find someone and settle down . Zhou Zimo and you are like the clouds in the sky floating casually . I feel lonely for you guys up there . ”
Mu Yuchen's serious words made Su Chen roll his eyes at him . “Although I don't agree with people saying that women are tools to warm the bed up, don't you think that marriage is really like a cage?”
“A cage? That's how they see it . I don't know, and I don't want to know . Only people who know how to appreciate it can be happy, wise, and accepting, and you'll be fine . ”
While Mu Yuchen felt it was relatable, his tone started to become low . “If you feel that you can live better after marrying someone, that means you've made the right choice, and now I'm feeling it . ”
Su Chen sighed as he looked at Mu Yuchen with an envious smile . “You're lucky to have met the right person . My father always tells me and Zimo to follow your example, but they don't understand how hard it is to find true love in this world . ”
“When I just met Xiaye, I just admired her and didn't dislike her . Thinking back now, I'm surprised that I suggested marrying her . ” Mu Yuchen stopped his hand movements and looked at Su Chen .
Su Chen gave him a wry smile while he patted Mu Yuchen's shoulder . “You think I don't know you? You must be lusting after her beauty . The way you call Xiaye is so flirtatious… Ah!”
Before Su Chen could finish his sentence Mu Yuchen gave him an uppercut . Su Chen groaned and then shut up, swallowing the blood that came from biting his tongue .
“That was harsh! Are we really friends?” Su Chen groaned again as he gave Mu Yuchen a frown .
“I don't think you transferred the money to me the last time we played cards, did you?” Mu Yuchen said .
“I'll go and see what they are up to!” Su Chen swiftly ducked away .
The dinner was a feast . It had been a long time since they gathered, so they drank a lot right until midnight, then Su Chen and Zhou Zimo went back drunk .
After sending Zhou Zimo to his car, Ah Mo turned around and told Mu Yuchen, “Master, Vice President Liu has started taking action . More than half of Yueying's stakeholders are willing to join Chenye Movies and Televisions . I'm sure the directors, as well as the actors, will support us too . ”
Mu Yuchen nodded . “I'll wait for your good news then . After the preparation is complete over there, you can start spreading the news . Let them struggle after that . ”
“Yes, Master, Li Si is working on it already . I'll bring you positive news in a few days' time . After everything is settled here, I'm sure you can have a peaceful wedding with Missus . ” Ah Mo smiled genuinely .
“Mmm, it's pretty late now . You should go back . Ask the chauffeur to send them home . Your sister-in-law and Lingshi should be heading back as well . ”
