Chapter 241 - 241 241 About to Have a Daughter-in-law
Chapter 241: Chapter 241: About to Have a Daughter-in-law Chapter 241: Chapter 241: About to Have a Daughter-in-law Su Mi dragged Shen Zhongshuang as they sprinted wildly through the Pei Family’s residence.
Shen Zhongshuang dealt with those pursuing them from behind while still making sure to check on Su Mi.
“Did you find what you were looking for?”
“I did! They were just small items, not worth dragging Doctor Shen and me into trouble for!”
“Shut up.”
The two of them stumbled and ran desperately, finally shaking off the bodyguards behind them and getting into a taxi parked by the roadside.
Without caring why there was a taxi there, Shen Zhongshuang fastened his seatbelt and instructed, “Driver, to Leisure Inn!”
The taxi driver with sunglasses, Tian Tong, spat out the dogtail grass from his mouth and pressed down the meter.
“Alright, hold on tight.”
The taxi sped away, with a dozen cars chasing after it, sparks flying along the ground!
As the taxi entered the Second Ring Road, a network of countless surveillance cameras finally marked a safe zone.
Shen Zhongshuang sighed in relief, but his brows furrowed.
“Driver, which taxi company are you from?”
Those sleek maneuvers while evading the pursuers, Shen Zhongshuang wasn’t sure even he could do better than Tian Tong.
Tian Tong tugged on his cap and mask, pointing to the ID tag beside him.
“I used to be a race car driver, occupational habit, made you laugh.”
Shen Zhongshuang looked at the information and still felt uneasy, taking out his phone to scan the QR code on it!
Only upon seeing that the driver’s profile indeed included a note of retirement from a well-known racing team did Shen Zhongshuang feel reassured.
“I don’t mean anything by it. The driver’s skill is excellent; I’ll give you a good review later.”
“Thank you so much!”
The Shen Family was cautious, and the Beidou Star people were meticulous.
The real taxi driver was still asleep in the trunk; Tian Tong’s displayed information was modified by Beidou Star.
Shen Zhongshuang scanned it this once, and when he reopened the page, it would be an instant webpage, burning after reading!
After confirming the driver was not an issue, Shen Zhongshuang dialed Shen Jishi’s number, and the two brothers chatted about what they heard at the Pei Family.
Tian Tong’s earphones were live-broadcasting the happenings on this side.
He relayed Shen Zhongshuang’s encounters to Qingwu verbatim.
Shen Jishi: “Pei Liu is bold, but these things are beyond his means and connections; I’ll investigate Pei Liu’s company further and find something to occupy him with.”
“Alright, I’ll go see Big Brother later.”
Shen Boyi was eating with Qingwu and didn’t answer the call.
The car stopped at Leisure Inn, Shen Zhongshuang used facial recognition to let the taxi smoothly enter and parked it at the Shen Mansion entrance before scanning the code to get off.
Tian Tong watched the backs of Shen Zhongshuang and Su Mi, lowering his voice, “Boss, people delivered safely.”
Qingwu felt relieved, and the connection was cut off.
Just as they walked in the door, Zuo Wanjun saw the disheveled Shen Zhongshuang and Su Mi following behind and let out a sharp scream!
Her hand trembled as she pointed at Shen Zhongshuang’s tattered clothes and Su Mi’s slightly flushed face due to nervousness and fear…
Su Mi’s clothes were also a bit torn; the exposed skin was slightly red from minor scrapes at the Pei Family.
Zuo Wanjun’s mind raced quickly.
“Second one, you, you, you, what on earth were you doing?”
Shen Zhongshuang looked puzzled at Zuo Wanjun, “Huh? Nothing happened!”
Zuo Wanjun was about to pinch someone, afraid the unspeakable images in her mind had come true.
“Go change your clothes quickly! Dressed like this, what are people going to think, like you’re doing something strange as performance art…”
Only then did Shen Zhongshuang remember his clothes weren’t fit to be seen and rushed upstairs to change!
Zuo Wanjun grabbed Su Mi’s hand, her face full of conflict and nervousness.
“Mimi, the second one… he didn’t bully you, right?”
Su Mi shook her head confusedly, “No, Doctor Shen took good care of me.”
“Oh… that’s good, that’s good. So when are you moving to the Shen Family to live with Auntie?”
“Huh? Isn’t that inappropriate?”
Zuo Wanjun happily settled on the decision.
“It’s appropriate, it’s appropriate. Qingwu is going to school in a few days, Shaojia isn’t home, and Auntie just wants a daughter-in-law… a daughter to accompany her. It’s very convenient for you to live here!”
The main thing is if she guessed correctly and her son really did something shameless, there needed to be an account given to the young lady!
Zuo Wanjun was a bit excited; could she soon have a daughter-in-law!
…
Beijing University.
Shen Boyi’s car stopped at the school gate, “Are you sure you don’t want Big Brother to go with you?”
Qingwu got out of the car while refusing Shen Boyi’s offer.
“Master Shi Yujiang invited me, it shouldn’t be anything major, Big Brother, take care of your own matters.”
“Then Big Brother will come to pick you up later, you call Big Brother in a while.”
“Okay.”
Shen Boyi advised repeatedly before leaving with relief.
The issue at Elder Pei Liu’s manor was too significant; Pei Jue was called back halfway by the old man working overtime at the group, and Shen Boyi also had many matters to deal with, so he hurried back to the company after dropping Qingwu at the school gate.
Qingwu walked to the agreed location with Master Shi Yujiang while adjusting the communicator in her ear.
Tian Yue’s voice came from the other side, “Boss, I’m in the main hall with the old man waiting for you! I found out Pei Liu has been in contact with Xuan Jing.”
“Business dealings?”
“Looks like it, but with my sixth sense, it’s not that simple; their call frequency and cooperation frequency don’t match. Be it Pei Liu or Xuan Jing, neither type would call a buddy late at night to chat.”
Tian Yue shrugged.
“Even more, considering their ages, they aren’t like good buddies, real father-son duo, or affectionate couples; beyond business cooperation, there’s likely more to share.”
Facing Tian Yue’s straightforward thinking, Qingwu remained silent for a moment.
“…Do more experiments on things that don’t matter, watch less strange stuff.”
With the new semester approaching, the campus already had quite a few students.
The sound of a wheelchair sounded behind Qingwu, a slightly impatient male voice interrupting her thoughts, as an electric wheelchair stopped in front of her.
“Excuse me, do you know how to get to the main hall?”
The person in the wheelchair wore an English-style shirt with matching cufflinks, his face sickly and pale yet with a perfectly fragile allure, and the corners of his mouth carried a gentle smile.
His appearance caused many students to stop and take notice.
Qingwu raised her eyebrows slightly; aortic dissection patients, recovering this quickly out of the hospital, couldn’t possibly be because Chen Jianhong thought his career had ended and wanted to let loose.
Most likely, Xuan Jing had snuck out himself.
Qingwu averted her gaze and walked directly past Xuan Jing.
“I don’t know.”
Xuan Jing maneuvered the wheelchair to follow beside Qingwu.
“Are you also going to the main hall? In that case, I’ll go with you.”
“I’m not going to the main hall; I’m going to the library.”
“Just right, I also need to visit the library; let’s go together.”
Qingwu glanced coolly at Xuan Jing in the wheelchair, the campus light falling through the treetops onto him, adding a touch of warmth.
She coldly curled her lips, her gaze settling on Xuan Jing’s wheelchair, slightly mocking.
“What a coincidence? Wherever I go, you go too? Then if I go to the rooftop to sunbathe, will you follow as well?”
