Chapter 48: Bartering
Su Ziqi confided in her thoughts, hoping to use herself as bait to lure the snake out of the hole, but was resolutely opposed by Zhong Zimu, "No! I can't agree! I can't let you take this risk!"
"If this person can't be caught, it's the biggest adventure!" Su Ziqi said, indeed, this is also what Zhong Zimu is most worried about.
"However, I can always protect you, I can always be by your side!" Zhong Zimu wanted to try to make Su Ziqi give up such a dangerous idea.
"Zimu, there is no problem for you to protect me, but can you be my personal bodyguard for the rest of my life 24 hours a day? You and I have our own important things to do! To give a very simple example, if the board of directors is convened, can you not participate? Or no matter what meeting or occasion, you will carry me like a tail?" Su Ziqi hit the nail on the head.
"But......" Zhong Zimu knew that what Su Ziqi said made sense, but he still didn't want Su Ziqi to take risks.
"Zimu, I know what you're worried about, don't worry, I'll be careful, and the police will also catch that criminal as soon as possible through this method!" Although Su Ziqi also beat the drum in her heart, she had to persuade Zhong Zimu first and let him give in.
"Uh...... , Miss Su's method is not impossible to try, let's make arrangements to ensure that nothing goes wrong!" Officer Yan also felt that if this criminal was caught quickly, everyone's pressure would be less. If this criminal suddenly appears one day and is caught off guard, it will be even more unsafe.
"That'...... Okay!" Zhong Zimu finally relented, when Su Ziqi proposed this idea, he also knew that this was a good way, given that this person was so cunning, if he didn't use extraordinary means, it would be really difficult to arrest him for a while! If he wasn't caught for a day, Ziqi wouldn't be really safe, and he wouldn't be at ease!
Seeing that Zhong Zimu finally agreed to his suggestion, Su Ziqi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"However, we must ensure that Ziqi is absolutely safe!" Zhong Zimu looked at Officer Yan eagerly, "Choose a suitable time, I will also participate in this mission!"
Officer Yan nodded and said, "Okay, we will definitely deploy it strictly, and the plan will also be realized to communicate with Mr. Zhong!"
Coming back from the police station, Su Ziqi returned home under the escort of Zhong Zimu, Zhong Zimu wanted to send Su Ziqi into the door, Su Ziqi was worried that her mother would be unhappy when she saw Zhong Zimu, so she persuaded Zhong Zimu to stay in the car. Zhong Zimu was helpless, until he saw Su Ziqi enter the gate, and a security guard escorted Su Ziqi into the courtyard, Zhong Zimu left with peace of mind.
Su Ziqi opened the door of the villa tiredly, and before she entered the hall, she heard the conversation between her mother and Zhong Qiao. Su Ziqi was inconvenient to break in, so she hid in the entrance.
Soho said in a dissatisfied tone: "I just want to get my emerald lion back, what are you bringing your lion for? What's yours is yours, what's mine is mine!"
Zhong Qiao said comfortingly: "I'm just afraid that you will be in a hurry, so as soon as you ask for the lion, I will send it to you overnight!
Only then did Su Ziqi know that it turned out that Zhong Qiao was afraid that Soho would be sad to see the broken lion, so he had taken away two jade lions before Soho moved in, and these two jade lions, Zhong Qiao would not put them in his own home, they must have been hidden in the company. The reason why I came so late must have been when my mother asked Zhong Qiao for it, and Zhong Qiao went back to the company to get it.
"How can it be the same?" Soho still said in a stiff tone, "What's yours is yours, what's mine is mine, how can it be mixed up!"
"Alas, Ah He, in fact, they were originally a pair of ......" Speaking of this, Zhong Qiao suddenly felt a little unable to continue, "Anyway, you don't want to be serious, just think it's not good for us to change it?" Back then, I asked you to take the two of them away, but you ......"
"They are destined to be separated, even if they are twisted together, what's the use? In short, you take this away, I want mine!" Soho was very stubborn, for more than 20 years, if it weren't for her tenacity, she would have been unable to hold on. It is precisely because of her persistence and perseverance that she can withstand the twists and turns of life.
But at the same time, when she faced Zhong Qiao again, she also showed stubbornness and stubbornness that were difficult to convince.
"Ahem...... I'll bring your lion here!" Zhong Qiao was very helpless, "But, you see it's so late, forget it today, right? I'm going to have a long trip tomorrow, and I'll be back in a few days, I'll store this jade lion with you first, and I'll change it for you when I come back, it's okay, right?"
Zhong Qiao couldn't, so he had to play a delaying tactic!
Hearing Zhong Qiao say this, Su He also knew that he was pressing too hard, so he had to loosen his mouth and said: "Since this is the case, let's do this first! It's so late, it's inconvenient for me to keep you, Ziqi will come back in a while, please go back!"
"Ah Ho ......" Zhong Qiao was a little disappointed when he saw that Soho's attitude towards him was so cold, but thinking of all the difficulties of Soho over the years, he couldn't blame himself in his heart, so he had to say: "Okay, I'll go back first, and I'll come to see you in a few days!"
Hearing Zhong Qiao say this, Su Ziqi was afraid that Zhong Qiao would bump into him when he came out, so he deliberately made a loud noise of taking off his shoes, and before he left the hallway, he shouted loudly: "Mom, I'm back, haven't you slept yet?"
Saying that, Su Ziqi stepped out of the entrance and saw Zhong Qiao and Su Ho sitting on the sofa!
"Uncle Zhong is here!" Su Ziqi pretended not to know and greeted Zhong Qiao.
"Ah, I've been here for a while, send something to your mother!" As he spoke, Zhong Qiao stood up and glanced at the Jade Lion.
Su Ziqi nodded, "Uncle Zhong, sit down!"
"Don't do it! I delivered the things, it's not too early, you have to rest, I'm leaving!"
Seeing that Zhong Qiao was leaving, Su He thought that he belonged to another price after all, although he was sad, his face was still cold and hard, "Thank you for your concern!"
"Mom, I'm going to send Uncle Zhong!" Saying that, Su Ziqi sent Zhong Qiao outside the door.
"Ziqi, let's stay!" Zhong Qiao has always been a little embarrassed by Su Ziqi, and now he has not had a chance to sit down with Su He and talk about Su Ziqi, he still always thinks that Su Ziqi is his daughter.
"Uncle Zhong, thank you for helping me out of the Jade Lion! and your mother has been doing surgery for a while, you have also helped a lot!" Su Ziqi thanked very sincerely.
"No thanks, it should be, it's just that your mother still insists on her lion, alas-" Zhong Qiao sighed.
"Oh, that'...... Why don't I tell my mother the truth?" Su Ziqi had already heard her mother's words, and she didn't want Zhong Qiao to be embarrassed anymore.
Zhong Qiao thought for a moment, and still said: "Forget it, don't talk about it, I'll figure it out!"
Zhong Qiao was afraid of breaking Soho's heart after all.
"Ziqi, there are some things that you may not think of, after all, you are too young and have too little experience, I ......" Zhong Qiao wanted to find out the father-daughter relationship between Su Ziqi and himself, but he felt that he couldn't say it.
Zhong Qiao hesitated and said: "Ziqi, over the years, your father has not fulfilled the responsibility of being a father, but maybe it is out of helplessness, if you know that your father is in trouble, you won't blame him......!
Su Ziqi knew what Zhong Qiao was worried about, and she smiled and said, "Uncle Zhong, it's actually ......."
"Ziqi, why hasn't Ziqi come in yet?!" Su Ho's voice called from inside the room, interrupting the conversation between Su Ziqi and Zhong Qiao.
"Ah, Ziqi, let's find time to talk again, your mother told you that there might be something, you go and take care of your mother!" Zhong Qiao pointed to the house.
Su Ziqi nodded, "Okay, Uncle Zhong, let's talk again when we have time, you go back and drive slowly!"
Zhong Qiao nodded and got into the car.
Su Ziqi followed her into the living room and saw her mother sitting on the sofa with a sad face.
"What's the matter, Mom? It's because the lion sent by Uncle Zhong is wrong, are you angry? Actually, isn't this one as good-looking as the other one?" Su Ziqi thought that her mother was still angry about the jade lion.
"Ziqi, sit down!" Soho patted the sofa beside him, "I have something to tell you!"
Su Ho has always been generous to Su Ziqi, just because Su Ziqi has never let her worry about anything, she doesn't ask her daughter to get ahead, she doesn't want her daughter to become a celebrity, she only wants her daughter to have the simple happiness of ordinary people!
Just because these two things are about her happiness!
"Mom, what's the matter with you?" Su Ziqi had a premonition that her mother was going to talk about her and Zhong Zimu.
"Mom has two requests!" Soho's flat tone was full of tragedy.
"What request?" Su Ziqi was a little nervous, but thinking that she was not related to Zhong Zimu by blood, her mother might also know that she was just using this to force her to leave Zhong Zimu, and her heart was somewhat bottomed.
"The first request, find a house, let's get out of Gardenia Villa quickly!" Soho said the first request, saying that it was a request, but rather a condition.
Su Ziqi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Ah, Mom, I'm looking for a house, it's not easy to find a house to live with Hally, many homeowners don't allow large pets!"
"Then we'll leave Ruicheng!" Soho's face suddenly sank!
"Mom——, my job and my career are in Ruicheng, how can we leave Ruicheng?!" Su Ziqi was very puzzled by Soho's sentence "Leaving Ruicheng"!
"I think it's because Zhong Zimu is in Ruicheng, right?!" Soho looked at her daughter sternly, she knew that it was time to make this order to her daughter, she couldn't watch her daughter go wrong all the time, because in the end, it must be her daughter who was hurt!
When Su Ziqi heard her mother say this, she frowned suddenly, and then her brows slowly eased, after all, it was difficult for her mother to accept the son of the old "qingren", and she had to slowly convince her mother. So, Su Ziqi calmed down, "Mom, your second request is to let me leave Zimu, right?"
Su He looked at her sensible daughter, her stern gaze softened, she nodded, and took her daughter's hand: "Mom is doing this for you! You and Zhong Zimu must be separated! Forced to separate, it is better to leave while you are not hurt yet!"
