Qin Jinhuan didn’t even have time to put on his shoes. He rushed to the door and yelled angrily, “What are you shouting for?!”
Knowing what his boss was nervous about, Bian Zijun hurriedly pointed to the door opposite the one to Qin Jinhuan’s room and explained, “Old Master Qin just went out.”
Only then did Qin Jinhuan’s expression ease slightly. He immediately gave Bian Zijun a sidelong glance and asked, “What happened?”
“The property owners of Xinyue Estates headed to the sales center early in the morning, and they’re asking for refunds and withdrawals of their ownership!”
“Refunds and withdrawals of their ownership?”
“That’s right! They said that many more will die in Xinyue Estates, and they’re afraid of becoming the next victim. As such, they’re asking for refunds and withdrawals of their ownership en masse!”
A surprised Mu Yu interjected as she questioned, “Who said that many more will die in
“No, you’ve misunderstood me!” Rong Jian explained hastily. “I meant to say that there were a few deaths, and even Zeyu got hurt!” “Ah, I see!” Even though it was good news, Mu Yu, who had already calmed down slightly, couldn’t relax completely as soon as he mentioned the deaths. Instead, she followed up nervously and asked, “How many deaths were there, exactly?” “They’re still confirming the number, but the situation doesn’t look too good. Ah, Zeyu’s here! He’ll tell you the details, so I’ll be leaving to take care of some other things.” With those words, Rong Jian left in a hurry. When Mu Yu turned her head around, Wen Zeyu was heading over in their direction, covering one side of his face with his hand. She could see smears of dark red blood on his face through the slits between his fingers. “How’s your injury?” Qin Jinhuan asked him in a rush, having gone up ahead to check up on him. “I’m fine. It’s jus
When Mu Yu and Qin Jinhuan arrived at the sales office, Bian Zijun was directing the clean-up process. He came up to them as soon as he noticed the couple and pointed toward one of the office rooms. “That office has been cleaned up, boss. Let’s talk inside.” Qin Jinhuan gave him a slight nod and went into the office with Mu Yu. From the looks of it, what he meant by that was they’d simply rearranged the tables and chairs and placed them back to an upright position. Just then, Mu Yu noticed a chair with a broken leg at the corner of the room and thought that it was strange. “Has this place been ransacked as well?” “Yeah.” Bian Zijun brought each of them a glass of warm water. “At least the water dispenser is still working fine.” “Did the same property owners do this?” “We’re not so sure at the moment since we’re still in the middle of investigating.” Bian Zijun quickly went up to Qin Jinhuan’s
“Mr. Qin!” Qin Jinhuan turned around in surprise when he heard a familiar voice calling him, but he didn’t expect the person standing behind him to be Yin Anran whom he hadn’t seen in a long time. After Yin Anran was slashed in the face by Dong Wanqing, he made her rest at home with the excuse that she needed time to recuperate. Since then, he hadn’t seen her up until now. The woman in front of him was dressed neatly as always. She had on a face of elegant makeup and styled her hair in her favorite big, loose curls—she looked just like old times. The only difference was there were now two scars on her face, and even the foundation she had on couldn’t erase their existence. They weren’t exactly hideous, but the presence of them on such a beautiful face formed a contrast, making them look especially ugly. Naturally, Qin Jinhuan knew the story behind the scars—Yin Anran had gotten them from Dong Wanqing when the latter slashed her face w
Rong Jian grabbed the person who spoke and asked for confirmation, “Is Qian Xiaoyu the person you’re referring to?”“Y-Yeah!” The person looked somewhat nervous as he answered because Rong Jian was wearing his uniform. As such, the latter could understand this; now was the time of emergency, and anyone would be afraid of being questioned. Therefore, he wasn’t surprised and merely continued to ask, “Does she often pass out?”“I don’t know that. It’s the first time I have seen her pass out, anyway.” The person appeared cautious as he answered.Just then, Mu Yu interjected, “Are there medical staff here?”“Yes, there are. We have an infirmary.”Rong Jian continued to ask, “Is Mr. Tian’s relationship with Miss Qian good? They—”“I have to work!” the person interrupted him with an apologetic smile. “Just ask Mr. Tian if you have any questions,” he said. After finishing his sentence, he ran away in a flas
“I didn’t kill Dacheng!” Tian Maocai looked at Rong Jian frantically. “I really didn’t kill him, Chief Rong!”“People with a clear conscience don’t have to worry about this.” Rong Jian didn’t answer his question directly, instead gesturing for him to take a seat and slowly explain himself.However, Tian Maocai didn’t sit down. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and explained nervously, “Chief, I did dislike Dacheng’s laziness, and Xiaoyu did give him plenty of money to cover his expenses, but he’s still my brother-in-law regardless of everything! No matter how bad things are, it wouldn’t have been enough reason for me to kill him! Those who kill will have to pay with their own lives!”“If you didn’t kill him, why did you two try to make your alibis match up with each other? Are you saying that your wife killed him?!”No one had expected Wu Xing to suddenly cut in with that question. Tian Maocai’s face, which was already red
“Dacheng came here roughly four to five years ago, but I can’t remember the exact time and date.” “Four to five years ago?” At the same time, Mu Yu’s and Rong Jian’s eyes glistened as the former swiftly asked, “Where was he around that time? Was he at Huacheng?!”“I have no clue.” When he saw that everyone was staring at him, Tian Maocai could tell that they were skeptical of him. He immediately opened his eyes wide as he exclaimed, “I really have no idea! Ever since he was young, Dacheng wasn’t exactly the sharpest tool in the shed. More than 20 years ago, an accident happened and he got separated from his family. His parents searched high and low for him, and they even called the cops. A few months later, a homeless man in the neighboring city was hit by a car until he practically became ground meat, and the police allowed his family to identify the corpse. After recognizing that it was in fact their son, they cried their eyes out and brought his
“What happened?” Wu Xing was also baffled when he saw it. “Did the Bureau send anyone here other than us?” he asked Rong Jian in surprise. “No, I’m fully responsible for this case,” Rong Jian answered as he paced swiftly toward the dorm. Tian Maocai followed behind and tried to explain, “Perhaps it was the wind? The wind is rather strong in the mountains, after all.”“It’s not because of the wind, but a person! Look, they even left the seals on the ground!” Wu Xing caught up with Rong Jian’s footsteps and exclaimed, “Something’s off, Chief Rong!”The latter ignored his words, and his speed walk turned into a jog as Rong Jian navigated to the dorm before pushing the door open. However, the door couldn’t be opened. As he was thinking about ramming the door open, Tian Maocai stopped him.“I have a key, Chief Rong. The door isn’t broken, so a key should do the job.”Rong Jian immediately moved away up
The company had decided to call for a meeting of Xinyue Estates’ property owners the next day, intending to have it attended by three to five representatives of property owners for each phase. However, such an arrangement was met with vehement objections from the property owners, for they claimed that three to five representatives were too few to represent the dozens of blocks. Instead, it would be better to have three to five representatives attend the meeting for each unit.Standing in front of Qin Jinhuan’s desk, Chao Chenyu wiped his sweat as he asked, “Xinyue Estates was built in ten phases, with each phase comprising 30 to 40 blocks and each block consisting of four or five units. If the meeting is to be attended by three to five representatives per unit, won’t we have to prepare a conference hall that can accommodate at least 10,000 people?”Qin Jinhuan shot him a look of intense displeasure. “Are you going to cater to their whims?”
"You ...""Dad, mom, you guys go back first," Shang Qi Qiang stopped his father who was about to have a seizure, and turned to Qin Jinhuan to apologize, "Big brother, a thousand mistakes are my fault, you let me meet Xiao Xi, I'll make amends to her and beg for her forgiveness.""Why are you the one making amends and begging for her forgiveness? It's not like she caused the accident! She caused it herself, okay?" Chen Juan was very dissatisfied with her son's words and immediately spoke out angrily, "It was her own fault that she deliberately found a reason to quarrel with you in the middle of the night and then ran out to meet another man before she got into the accident! Wasn't she at fault?"Chen Juan said while presenting the cell phone page about the intimate contact between Qin Chengxi and Fu Shaoyan to Qin Jinhuan and Mu Yu to see, afraid that they do not know as if, completely ignoring the side of the husband and son who made all kinds of winks.Mu Ye
"Sister-in-law, go and pull my brother, but you can't ...""I know I know." Muyi pressed her to lie down, "You don't want to hurt the wound!""Don't mind me, I'm fine!""Okay, okay, I'll go persuade your brother." Knowing that she was in a hurry, Mu Yu waited for her to lie down and then ran out and instructed the nurse who had made special arrangements to take care of Qin Chengxi before leaving in a hurry.Seeing that Qin Jinhuan's figure had long since disappeared from the elevator entrance, she hurriedly called him and, upon learning that he was in the underground parking lot, immediately ordered him to wait for her to go down."What the hell is going on? Wasn't Shang Qi always good to Xiao Xi before?" Mu Yu expressed her disbelief after getting into Qin Jinhuan's car."That's for Shang Qi to ask." Qin Jinhuan glanced grimly at Bian Zijun.Bian Zijun answered, "I've already gotten through to Mr. Shang, and he said that he'll immediately a
Qin Chengxi had never actually thought of leaving the Shang family because she never thought she would have such a rigid side."Xiao Xi ah, you're too honest and have a weak nature, your brother is always worried that you'll be bullied outside, and always asked me to advise you to put on a stronger personality. You are a member of the Qin family, you should show the Qin family's vigor. Your brother said, no matter when, no matter where, no matter what happens, he will always be your strongest backing. You have to memorize these words."Her ears rang with the words her sister-in-law had spoken to her so eloquently today.Previously, she had been silently putting up with Chen Juan's mouthiness in the Shang family because of Shang Qi, and now that Shang Qi was talking to her in such a tone, what reason did she have to put up with them?Today she was going to show them that she, Qin Chengxi, wasn't as weak as they thought, and that she also had a personality!
"Isn't it just a picture? Making a big deal out of it is not something the Hoshi I know would do!""Is this just a picture in your eyes? Is it not your disloyalty to our relationship?""When have I ever been unfaithful to our relationship? Hoshi, you're breaking my heart when you say things like that, do you understand?""Your attitude breaks my heart even more!""My attitude ..." Seeing her crying more and more sad, he only had to give in, "Okay, okay, it's my fault, I'll make amends to you, I'll apologize to you, okay?""It would have been your fault. Think about it another way, if the picture was of me with another man ...""No ifs!" He immediately interrupted her with a scowl."You know to be angry too.""Haven't I already admitted my mistake?""You drove Joey Zhi Yun.""No way!" Shang Qi refused Qin Chengxi without even thinking, "I need her badly now!"Qin Chengxi bit her lip, "So do you need me?""That's
Seeing that it was Chi Sihui's caller, he wanted to not answer it, but after a moment's hesitation, he answered it.In the end, the two families were family friends, and he and she had grown up together as little ones."Shangqi, where are you?" As soon as the phone was connected, Chi Sihui's petite voice came through."What is it?" He asked back, faintly."Let's have dinner together, we haven't seen each other in a long time.""Not available.""Alright, alright, don't be angry with me, I invited you to dinner today just to apologize to you.""Apologize to me? Isn't it an apology for Hoshi?""To her?" Chi Sihui's voice was through contempt, but she didn't continue, turning to say, "I'll give her an apology, but I only want to see you today. Come on, I've reserved a seat at the Fate Restaurant.""No time.""Eh!" Seemingly knowing that he was about to hang up the phone, Chi Sihui immediately exclaimed, "You're going home for d
"Uncle, Auntie."With Shangqi gone, Qin Chengxi has no one to rely on, and Chen Juan makes her apprehensive.Chen Juan didn't enter the room either, but just looked at her with a face full of compassionate concern,"Xiao Xi ah, how's your body toning up these days? Why are you getting thinner and thinner?""I've been a little sick the last few days, so I've been eating very little. Always sleepy."Afraid that she would bring up another topic that she couldn't face, Qin Chengxi made a gesture of yawning, looking really sleepy, hoping that it would make her realize that she was leaving."You can't even take care of yourself, how can I expect you to take care of Sang-ki in the future?"Qin Chengxi wanted to say, "Shangqi will take care of herself," but thought better of it and smiled dryly, "I'll get my body well as soon as possible. Don't worry, uncle.""You just can't carry on the flavor for the Shang family even after you've toned up your bod
"Eh! Shangqi, let go!" Qin Chengxi struggled sharply."Shang, Mr. Shang?"The group of people who came in originally wanted to ask Qin Chengxi to look into the break because there was an argument, but they didn't expect to run into this scene, so they were all embarrassed and subconsciously tried to turn away."If you're here, why don't you finish before you leave?"The one who spoke, Shang Qi, at this time he had let go of Qin Chengxi, but his hand was still on her shoulder, as if he was swearing a kind of sovereignty, as if he was saying, you guys can watch out, your boss is my daughter-in-law, if you dare to bully her, you are bullying me.The corners of Qin Chengxi's mouth twitched as he looked at him unnaturally, but he let him.The crowd exited her office immediately after saying what they had to say briefly and succinctly.He grinned and held her hand as he took her out to dinner.She finally smiled at the thought.Since s
Qin Chengxi answered Mu Yan's call.She knew that her sister-in-law was worried about her situation, and immediately stated that she had the support of Shang Qi as well as the Shang family's parents, and only then did Mu Yan say nothing, and advised her a few more times to take care of her health."I know, I'll go back in a few days to see you and Redeemer. I miss Redeemer." She responded with feigned relief."Isn't it easy to miss her? I'll come home from work and bring her to video you.""Okay, that's a deal."A few more words were exchanged before she hung up.When he came back to the office again, Sang-ki was already buried in papers.Looking at him, who had also lost weight, she felt both guilty and heartbroken.She's the one who dragged Sang-gi down.If it weren't for her, the papers in front of him wouldn't have accumulated like a mountain.Meetings were pushed back and forth, and some matters that needed to be handl
"Brother! Don't!"Qin Chengxi was also terrified and cried as she went up to beg Qin Jinhuan.Although she has been in her heart not ashamed of what her parents did, but in the end is her biological parents, she can not sit back and do nothing, not to mention the grandfather's corpse is not yet cold, and in any case the family can not be so farce."Ah Huan, calm down!" Mu Ye also immediately stepped forward to dissuade Qin Jinhuan.Qin Jinhuan didn't make a sound, but just looked askance at Qin Wentao with a chilly face, without the slightest look of being persuaded by them.The sound of running footsteps outside approached.Qin Chengxi, who was afraid of seeing blood, was terrified, but she knew she couldn't say anything about her big brother and could only cry and go up to her father and beg him to leave.Qin Wentao knew that he couldn't restrain his son, and was worried that he had no place to vent his anger, when Qin Chengxi crashed into
