Chapter 729 - Finding Out
Su Yu quickly nodded. “Yeah! Xiao Chen is a talented young man. This girl needs to have better senses! I’ll head over now then. Stay in the car and don’t be reckless. I’ll go and find out what happened. It’s her big day today, so don’t give her any bad impression.”
Elder Su grunted coldly, “Go and test the waters. Why didn’t Xiao Chen bring her home? What are they arguing about? Is she dissatisfied with the Su family? Also, investigate her family immediately. If there are no problems, then tell Xiao Chen to bring her home as soon as possible.” His way of doing things was quick and decisive as usual.
“Alright, alright! I get it, Grandfather. Can I get down from the car now?”
“You have fifteen minutes to complete the mission! Go!” His voice was still strong and powerful.
“Yes, Sir!” Su Yu waved her hands and then got out of the car.
…
Ji Zitong was surprised to see Su Yu by the entrance of her store. At first, she felt this woman was familiar, and then her mind replayed Su Chen’s embarrassing scene the other day. This woman had been there as well. Her name was…
Su Yu?
Su Chen’s sister?
Information about this woman before her flashed in Ji Zitong’s mind.
Su Yu waved her hands and her bodyguard handed a flower basket as a gift while she greeted, “Hello, Ms. Ji. Congratulations! I hope you don’t mind my uninvited attendance. Do you still remember me?”
Ji Zitong bowed slightly as she gratefully said, “You’re Instructor Su’s sister, Ms. Su Yu. Thank you for coming. It’s my honor that you came!”
“You’re welcome. Where’s Xiao Chen? I don’t see him anywhere.” Su Yu smiled as she looked inside for and did not see Su Chen at all, hence her question.
‘His girlfriend’s shop is opening and he isn’t here? No wonder she’s angry with him! He totally deserves it!’ Su Yu scolded Su Chen in her mind.
However, Su Yu’s words confused Ji Zitong.
Su Chen?
What about him?
“Alright, let’s not talk about him for now. I’m here today to congratulate you. Your store looks really gorgeous!”
“Thank you.” Ji Zitong was still puzzled. She felt that the way Su Yu looked at her was kind of odd, so she returned a glance in alarm.
Su Yu was an observant person. She got the gist of how Ji Zitong was feeling the moment she saw her expression. “You don’t have to be nervous, Ms. Ji. Xiao Chen told us what happened. Don’t worry. Our family is pretty open-minded, so we don’t really mind how you guys go about it, but anyway, it’s Xiao Chen’s fault that he only told us about you guys recently. My brother has always been an insensitive person, but he’s still a nice guy, and doesn’t have the bad attitude of a youngster from a rich family.”
What?
Ji Zitong was frowning, but Su Yu continued, “I heard your family owns a martial arts center that your father operates. Is it nearby?”
“You…” Ji Zitong’s voice was getting quiet.
“I hope you don’t mind. I’m actually quite fond of martial arts myself. I just think it’d be interesting to take a look.”
Ji Zitong then replied, “It’s nearby.”
“Then, what about your mother? It’s odd to not see your parents here on the day of your new store opening.”
“My mother is arranging some flowers in the back while my father is busy at his center and will be here later. It’s getting cold outside, Ms. Su. Please come in.” Ji Zitong made a welcoming gesture to Su Yu who nodded and then followed her into the store.
At the same time, inside a black car across the road.
“Master, that looks like Elder Su’s car, and isn’t that Ms. Su Yu?”
The Mus and the Sus were pretty close to each other, so Li Si was familiar with the Su family. It was common for Li Si to send Su Chen back in his car the times he got drunk, and he was a regular to the Su family’s garage, thus it was natural for him to know Elder Su’s car plate number.
Mu Yuchen turned over and looked across the road to see the black car. He then averted his gaze towards the entrance of the store. Su Yu was chatting with Ji Zitong as they walked inside.
“That’s odd. Since when did Ms. Su Yu become so close to Ms. Ji? The elder seems to be in the car as well!” Li Si mumbled doubtfully.
Mu Yuchen raised his eyebrows as a faint light flashed in his eyes. He remembered something as he looked back. “Go the airport right away.” His calm voice reached Li Si.
“Huh? Aren’t we going to head inside?”
They were already here, but were not going inside?
Li Si was puzzled.
Mu Yuchen lowered his head and continued flipping through the magazine in his hands. “Just send someone to deliver the gift over. Also, don’t mention anything you see today to Master Su. Understand?”
Do not mention it to him?
What did that mean?
Li Si was at a loss, but he did not raise any questions when he saw Mu Yuchen return to his usual calm self from the rear-viewing mirror. “Yes, Master! I’ll have someone deliver the gifts now.”
He quickly took out his phone and dialed a number before their car went on their way once again.
Mu Yuchen then had a grin on his face. He gave it some thought before taking out his phone and giving Zhou Zimo a call.
Zhou Zimo was playing cards with some friends when he received the call. He quickly picked it up when he saw it was Mu Yuchen.
“Come to the private airport in half an hour and follow me to City B.” Mu Yuchen’s direct and concise words reached his ears the moment the call was connected.
Zhou Zimo was stunned for a moment. When he got back to his senses, he threw his cards away and stood up to grab his coat before everyone else could react to what happened. “I’ll be there immediately.”
“Master Mo, you’re leaving? Your money…”
“Transfer it into my account!”
