Sweet Chief Secretary - Chapter 549
“Young Master Mo, we’d better join forces with Young Master Yan.” The old lady’s move was indeed ruthless. If Shen Yang succeeded Shen Group’s presidency, concerning her prestige, Shen Mo could not compare with her at all.
“Just wait.” Shen Mo hesitated. He really wasn’t sure whether Shen Yan would cooperate with him. After all, he was in Shen Qiang’s team.
After Xia Yu disappeared, Shen Qiang went crazy. He almost pulled up carpeting in S city. Based on such a strong emotion, Shen Mo was not sure that Shen Yan would join forces with him.
“Young Master Mo, since Young Master Yan is not an indecisive person, how about my trying to ask Liu Sijie first?” Old Madame was so insidious that she played an excellent card of coverage.
When the two young masters were at beef, she had decided the candidate. Perhaps one day she would suddenly announce at the meeting that Shen Yang would directly take up office.
If Shen Mo was still hesitant at this time, it was afraid he would miss the opportunity. Zhang Hanyu decisively called Liu Sijie and asked him out for a meet.
It would be better to let him talk to Liu Sijie first, so Shen Mo did not stop him. After Zhang Hanyu left, he went to Zeng Group. Now he had not officially renamed Zeng Group. The name would be changed sooner or later, but it was not the right time then.
Zhang Hanyu had a talk with Liu Sijie for entirely two hours. When they came out, the expressions of the two were very serious. Although he did not agree with Zhang Hanyu’s suspicions, he still attached great importance to Zhang Hanyu’s words. After all, he was a resourceful talent working for Shen Yan.
After getting on the car, Liu Sijie reported the situation to Shen Yan, although he knew that Shen Yan was really busy now. But no matter how busy he was, he still could not take lightly of which might affect his prospect.
“I was also on the spot when eldest brother quarreled with grandmother today. I think he was thinking too much.” Shen Yan didn’t quite believe that her aunt would interfere, so he let Liu Sijie to not butt in the business but just manage the company.
As Shen Yan said so, Liu Sijie was relieved. To be honest, when Zhang Hanyu came to him, he really surprised Liu Sijie. At this time, Shen Yan’s thoughts were all on looking for Xia Yu. If something happened just like what Zhang Hanyu said, Shen Yan would really be overwhelmed this time. “Young Master Yan, rest assured. A friend of mine told me he found a kid who looked similar to Cheng Xi in a hospital in P city.”
“Really? Which hospital? I want its detailed information.” Shen Yan was now in a hurry, so as long as there was any news, he would try every conceivable means.
“I will send it to you immediately.” Liu Sijie quickly sent the information to him. He also asked his friends to continue enquiring. If there were any latest information, he would report that to Shen Yan again.
And on the isolated island, Xia Yu was also anxious not knowing how Cheng Xi was. It was okay for Brother Hu’s men to fight, but Xia Yu was worried that they could not take care of the kid.
She muddled away one more day. In the evening, Chen Wenxuan gave Xia Yu a mobile phone and asked her to talk to Cheng Xi. Xia Yu looked at him in surprise and took the phone from him.
The man on the other side of the phone gave Cheng Xi the phone.
“Auntie!” His voice was still very weak.
“Cheng Xi, I’m here! Are you Okay now?” Xia Yu asked anxiously.
“I’m in the hospital now. The doctor said that I had pneumonia and had to stay here for a few days.” Cheng Xi couldn’t help crying when he heard Xia Yu’s voice. Although these people didn’t hit him or scold him, he was really scared.
He wanted Xia Yu’s company, and he wanted his mother more.
“Cheng Xi, it’s Okay. You should do what the doctor tells you to do, Okay? So you can get better soon.” Xia Yu was very worried when she heard that Cheng Xi had pneumonia. But as she was far away on the isolated island, she could do nothing.
“Auntie, don’t worry. I will be good. And these two uncles are also very good to me.” Cheng Xi was little, but he was experienced. He first learned to observe his uncle when living at his house and then lived in the orphanage. Later, he had got a knack for reading people at that young age.
Now he was in control of these two people. In order to have a better life, the canny kid went to great lengths to please them, expecting they would treat him better.
After a few minutes, Chen Wenxuan took the phone and hung up. Then he stared at Xia Yu and said, “Xia Yu, now you know Cheng Xi was very good, so how should you thank me?”
Xia Yu pursed her lips, leaned towards him, and kissed his lips actively. He held Xia Yu’s waist tightly with one hand, and pressed the other hand on the back of Xia Yu’s head. Her nose and mouth were full of his breath.
There was a tumult in his stomach, but Xia Yu endured desperately. Her nails penetrated deeply into her palm, and the pain suppressed the nausea.
After the kiss, his face was laden with pleasure. He reached out, wiping the corner of Xia Yu’s mouth, and said hoarsely, “I like this way of thanks.”
Xia Yu smiled, and didn’t say anything. She leaned her head on his chest, lowered his eyes, and hid all her hatred and disgust against him.
She hadn’t had a good sleep for several days. Now that Cheng Xi had been admitted to the hospital for treatment, Xia Yu was finally relieved, so she slept very well the night. But when it was dawning, she suddenly woke up and could not fall asleep.
Xia Yu got up lightly, put on a gown, and walked to the balcony. Even after coming here, having witnessed the sunrise on the sea for several times, she would still be shocked every time.
After enjoying the sunrise, Xia Yu was about to enter the room, but at this time she saw a ship on the sea approaching the island out of the corner of her eyes. Because of the typhoon and the shut-down of the port, the supply was planned to arrive the day after tomorrow, wasn’t it? Why did it come today? Was the port reopened?
Xia Yu glanced at the ship again, turned back and entered the room. After washing, Xia Yu came out of the room when she happened to see Brother Hu walking around in the living room, muttering and cursing.
This man might have been annoyed by staying there for so long. Xia Yu took a breath and went downstairs into the kitchen.
Soon Brother Hu came in, “Miss Xia, let’s talk.”
“Brother Hu, just call me Xia Yu. You don’t have to be so polite.” Xia Yu tried to calm herself down. She guessed that he wanted to negotiate with her. Now Cheng Xi was in his control, so as long as he gave a proper offer, Xia Yu really did not mind reaching an agreement with him.
“That’s good, I’ll call you Xia Yu. Xia Yu, these days I understood that you don’t love Chen Wenxuan and don’t want to marry him. Better yet, if you give me 20 million, I’ll let you go back to reunite with Young Master Yan. What do you say? “Brother Hu was really bored here. Fxxk that 100 million. As long as Xia Yu agreed to him, this matter was over.
Only twenty million he would send me back? Xia Yu was persuaded, “Brother Hu, what about Cheng Xi?”
“Of course I will send Cheng Xi back to you.” Brother Hu didn’t want to pick on a child.
“Since you are so sincere, I will give you 20 million. Give my phone back, and I will call my father now.” This was a good opportunity to leave here, Xia Yu had no reason not to agree.
Brother Hu took out the phone, hesitated for a moment, but still handed it to Xia Yu. He assumed Xia Yu did not dare to play tricks when Xia Yu was still in their control.
“Brother Hu, what are you doing?” Chen Wenxuan appeared at the door. He had long noticed that Brother Hu was a bit strange and he was right. He was really making a pact with Xia Yu here.
“Chen Wenxuan, you are crazy, and I won’t work with you anymore.” Brother Hu and Xia Yu had already made a pact, and naturally he wouldn’t take Chen Wenxuan seriously anymore.
“Brother Hu, you can’t cross the river to dismantle the bridge.” Chen Wenxuan said anxiously, “You know what the wealthy are like. Now she made a quick promise, but when you let her go, just wait for jail.”
“Chen Wenxuan, don’t scare me.” Brother Hu sneered, “Since the first day of the partnership with you, I have been aware of what will happen. I would soon or later be caught by police since I have done this. Anyway, I took the money and ran away. I just want to hide as long as I can, or otherwise I will go to prison and stay for a few years. I did it. It’s not a big deal.”
“You, you betrayer!” Chen Wenxuan was inflamed. Now all people were Brother Hu’s subordinates. If he betrayed, Chen Wenxuan really couldn’t change the situation.
“Chen Wenxuan, that does not work on a rascal.” Brother Hu burst into laughter with tears.
Yeah, he was a rogue. Chen Wenxuan completely subsidized into a stage of helplessness.
“Boss, emergency! Young Master Yan came over with his men.” One of Brother Hu’s bully rushed in and reported to Brother Hu.
Was Shen Yan coming? Xia Yu’s heart thumped with excitement. Was the ship she saw in the morning driven by Shen Yan?
Chen Wenxuan grabbed Xia Yu, and then took out a jet-black gun, which was directed at the door with a glow of coldness.
Xia Yu was shocked, and cold sweat came from her forehead. Anyone who saw a gun would be afraid and nervous.
“Boss, what should we do!” Shen Yan brought a lot of people, whom they might not want to fight against.
Brother Hu’s face twitched. He didn’t speak with his lips closed tightly, and his eyes stared at the door.
At this time, there was a knock at the door and a deep mellow voice, “Was there anyone there? Shall we talk?”
“Who was there?” Brother Hu’s face changed again, but he suppressed that feeling and asked.
“Chen Wenxuan, can you open the door? We can negotiate whatever conditions you want.” A deep voice came again from the door.
“Brother Hu, open the door. I will persuade Shen Yan to give you what you want.” Seeing Brother Hu was still hesitating, Xia Yu said.
The man who reported looked at Brother Hu and saw that he nodded to him. He looked hesitant, but he finally went to open the door, because he knew that even if he did not open the door, Shen Yan would come in sooner or later. When he decided to break in, they could not stop him from a large crowd of men he was with.
“Door opened…”
When the door opened, Shen Yan’s tall figure and his cold face appeared. He had lost a lot of weight, and his eye was bloodshot. It seemed he had not have slept for a long time.
Shen Yan’s excited and burning eyes fell on Xia Yu’s face, and his pale lips opened, “Xia Yu!”
“Oh, I didn’t expect you to find where we are. It seems that I have underestimated you.”
Chen Wenxuan looked at the crowd in front of him, thinking he was over. But he strove to keep calm. Since Xia Yu was still controlled by him, he should not panic but try to ask for more in return.
