Chapter 242: Cover-up

Gu Shi'an was light-hearted, but Chen Xiao still heard her open the door. He spoke a few words to the other end of the phone, and quickly hung up.

Running upstairs and downstairs will catch a cold, Gu Shi'an wants to find a towel to dry his hair, but he won't let her go to sleep. I found a towel to dry my hair.

The room was quiet for a while, and when Chen Xiao was lying on the bed, Gu Shi'an hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Isn't it smooth to come back?" ”

Chen Xiao obviously didn't want to talk about Chen Zhengkang, closed his eyes, and said lightly: "He was injured over there." ”

This means that it is not that something happened on the way back.

But the two of them came back like they were embarrassed, and if they came back smoothly, how could they be so embarrassed.

Chen Xiao seemed to know what Gu Shi'an was thinking, paused slightly, and then said, "Chen Xun's people...... Look for him everywhere. ”

Although there was no action on the surface, in fact, the stations and airports on this side of the city were all clothed. Although he had planned for a long time, Chen Zhengkang, who was injured, was obviously a drag, so he was so embarrassed.

The two of them arrived in Lincheng this morning, and after turning around a few places, they returned to the old mansion.

Now it is unsafe for Chen Zhengkang outside, and the only safe place is the old house. Chen Xun couldn't guess that Chen Zhengkang would hide in the old mansion for the time being. Even if he guessed, he didn't have the courage to break through at the moment without being able to fully confirm it.

Since Chen Xiao brought Chen Zhengkang over, it means that he thinks the old mansion is safe.

Gu Shi'an knew that since Chen Xiao chose to bring Chen Zhengkang back in this way, it meant that they were not ready to expose Chen Zhengkang for the time being.

But now that there is Chen Xun's undercover agent in the old mansion, if he is not careful, Chen Zhengkang will be exposed in a completely unguarded situation.

When the time comes, Chen Xun doesn't know what kind of means he will use.

Gu Shi'an was silent for a moment, and asked, "Does he know something?" ”

There is no need to ask, but what did Chen Zhengkang know that Chen Xun would look for him in a big way?

Chen Xiao pursed his lips in the dark, and after a while, he spoke: "Chen Xun and Xiao Si, they want to use the Chen family to do illegal transactions. ”

The lawlessness he speaks of must be something unsightly.

Gu Shi'an had already guessed something, but he was still shocked in his heart, and said, "The board of directors ...... there."

To do such a thing is to completely ruin the Chen family. Even if the board of directors is blinded by Chen Xun again, it will definitely not let this happen. Unless, they do it in secret.

Chen Xiao's voice was already a little tired here, and he said, "They have the means to cover up. ”

Yes, since Chen's idea has already been beaten, Xiao Si must have a way to cover it up.

Gu Shi'an didn't speak now, she knew that if Chen Zhengkang was exposed now, it would be tantamount to completely tearing each other's faces.

Her fingers clenched, then let go. opened his mouth and said: "The aunt invited by the family, I asked Chang Yan to check, she should be Chen Xun's person." ”

Her voice was low, but unusually clear in the dark.

There was no sound in the room for a while, and when Gu Shi'an's heart was furious, Chen Xiao asked, "When did you meet him?" ”

He hit the nail on the head and didn't give Gu Shi'an a chance to argue at all.

Gu Shi'an's body stiffened slightly, knowing that he couldn't hide it, he said in a low voice: "Some time ago." ”

She originally thought that Chen Xiao was going to lose her temper, but she didn't, Chen Xiao looked straight at her with a pair of deep eyes in the dark, and said, "Don't you believe me?" ”

His tone was steady.

The more he was like this, the more furious Gu Shi'an's heart became, and he said in a low voice: "No, I ......"

He wouldn't say anything, and her heart was worried. He said he would deal with it, but things showed no signs of getting better, and how could she just sit and do nothing.

Chen Xiao knew her thoughts, and reached out to hold her hand under the quilt, just holding it for so long. After a long while, he spoke: "Stay away from him, and I won't hide it from you in the future." ”

As he spoke, he gently leaned Gu Shi'an's head against his chest.

Gu Shi'an hummed in a low voice, still worried about the aunt's affairs, and asked, "What about the aunt?" ”

Chen Xun's wings are stiff now, and he dares to leave his eyeliner in the old mansion. Chen Xiao's eyes were cold, and he said, "Keep it first." ”

Yes, there is Auntie's eyeliner here. Chen Xun would almost not suspect this.

Gu Shi'an nodded, was silent for a moment, and asked, "What about Aunt Ye and Mom?" ”

A big living person at home has to eat. It's not difficult to hide from your aunt, but it's obviously not easy to hide from Ye Qing and Qi Shiyun.

Especially Qi Shiyun, she and Chen Zhengkang will make trouble almost every time they meet. If she had known, the consequences would have been dire.

Before Gu Shi'an could come up with a good solution, Chen Xiao said, "Mom knows that I went over. When he said this, he patted Gu Shi'an's head lightly and said, "Okay, sleep, Aunt Ye, I'll go and tell her, don't worry, I'm here." ”

He said that Gu Shi'an was relieved, nodded and sighed. When Chen Xiao came back, she was still not at ease, and asked in a low voice, "Are you injured?" ”

Chen Xiao raised his eyebrows and said, "Who am I, do you think I might be hurt?" ”

He was as narcissistic as ever. Gu Shi'an stretched out his hand and hugged him tightly.

The room was very quiet for a while, Chen Xiao patted Gu Shi'an gently, and said in a low voice: "Good, sleep." ”

Gu Shi'an hummed softly and closed his eyes.

Neither of them could sleep, but neither of them spoke. I don't know how long it took, Gu Shi'an fell asleep in a daze.

When Gu Shi'an woke up the next day, Chen Xiao had already gotten up, and his aunt hadn't come yet, only Ye Qing and him were in the living room.

Seeing Gu Shi'an arrive at the staircase, he beckoned to her and said, "Come down and have breakfast." ”

Breakfast was already set on the table, but Qi Shiyun was nowhere to be seen, so Gu Shi'an asked in a low voice, "Hasn't Mom gotten up yet?" ”

Chen Xiao said at this time: "Get up, she has eaten and gone out for a walk." ”

He couldn't see anything on his face, and Ye Qing couldn't see anything on his face either. Gu Shi'an originally wanted to ask Chen Zhengkang if he had already said it, but he still couldn't open his mouth after all.

Auntie came over when Chen Xiao was about to leave, probably not expecting Chen Xiao to come back, she quickly called Mr. Chen respectfully.

Chen Xiao didn't seem to notice that she wasn't there, and went out directly with a slight bow.

Gu Shi'an sent him to the garage, looked behind him, and then asked in a low voice, "Have you talked to your mother and Aunt Ye?" ”

Chen Xiao nodded and said something. And let Gu Shi'an not worry, Chen Zhengkang has Ye Qing to take care of it.

Ye Qing was with the old lady, and he had seen all the winds and waves. Hiding someone in the old mansion from being discovered is not a difficult task for her.

Gu Shi'an nodded and stopped talking.

The matter of meeting Chen Xun last night, and the fact that he asked Gu Shi'an to pour wine and ask Chen Xiao to sign, Gu Shi'an had already told Chen Xiao. Chen Xiao was not very relieved, and said: "Stay at home, if he calls you again, don't pay attention to him, I will deal with it." ”

Gu Shi'an nodded and agreed, watched Chen Xiao's car drive out, and then returned to the old mansion.

Qi Shiyun didn't know where she went just now, and she was back now. Gu Shi'an greeted her, but she only nodded slightly, as usual, as if nothing had happened.

She sat in the living room for a little longer today, and she didn't go upstairs until after ten o'clock.

The old mansion is the same as usual, and there is nothing unusual to see at all. At noon, the aunt went back to cook food for her husband as usual, and Qi Shiyun called Gu Shi'an out of the study.

Her face was cold and indifferent, and she didn't bend around, and said, "People are in the house over there, and I've been watching it recently, don't let people come." After a slight pause, she continued: "In the room where he stays, there is a secret compartment behind the closet, and if there is a special circumstance, he will make a noise outside, and he will hide in it." ”

In such a situation now, Chen Zhengkang can only be saved first. The grievances between her and him can only be put to a later date.

Gu Shi'an nodded and said yes.

Qi Shiyun didn't speak anymore now, it was impossible for her to send food to Chen Zhengkang, and after a while, she said, "Your Aunt Ye, you can help a little more." ”

Her face was a little tired, and after speaking, she motioned for Gu Shi'an to go out. She herself sat quietly in her study.

Auntie was not there, Gu Shi'an originally wanted to go to see Chen Zhengkang. But two steps were taken, but after all, it still did not pass. I went downstairs and asked Ye Qing if he needed help.

Ye Qing had already sent food to Chen Zhengkang when her aunt left, and then she said that there was nothing to do and let her rest.

Chen Zhengkang's arrival has become a tacit secret in the old mansion.

Gu Shi'an went back to the room, originally wanting to call Chen Xiao. But as soon as the mobile phone was taken out, Chen Xun's call actually came.

There has been no movement on his side for the past few days, and Gu Shi'an originally thought that he would not call for the time being.

She looked at her phone and picked it up. Just fed it, Chen Xun on the other end of the phone called his sister-in-law gently.

His mildness is creepy. Before Gu Shi'an could speak, Chen Xun said again on the phone: "Sister-in-law, isn't this efficiency too slow?" ”

Gu Shi'an thought that he had specially called to urge her, but as soon as his words changed, he immediately said, "Sister-in-law, don't get me wrong, I'm not urging you." I know very well what kind of person Chen Xiao is. If you can beat him, he won't do that to you. ”

He really didn't forget to stir up the relationship between them all the time.

He didn't call for this, and Gu Shi'an didn't let him go around in circles anymore, and asked directly, "What's the matter?" ”

She was very happy to see Chen Xun, and said, "Where has my brother been in the past two days?" ”

He asked, obviously suspecting that he was inquiring about Chen Xiao's whereabouts.

Gu Shi'an's nerves tensed up suddenly, and he said lightly: "It seems that something tricky has been in the company, and I came back last night and left this morning." ”

Chen Xun was obviously suspicious of Chen Xiao's whereabouts and asked, "Just in the company?" ”

Gu Shi'an became impatient at this time, and said, "If you don't believe that you can inquire." ”

Chen Xun on the other end of the phone laughed a few times and said, "Sister-in-law, how can I not believe what you said." After a slight pause, he continued, "I have a small reluctant request here. Also ask my sister-in-law to help. ”

After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Gu Shi'an to speak, and said directly: "Recently, where Chen Xiao has gone, I hope you can tell me, sister-in-law." ”

Gu Shi'an sneered and said, "You should know that there is a deal between us. Your requirements are outside of the transaction. Why do you think I can help you? ”

Chen Xun chuckled lightly on the other end of the phone, and said, "No, in my hand, there is something that you are interested in, sister-in-law." I have a recording here, do you think you should send this thing to Chen Xiao......"

He didn't say anything more, but put on the recording.

His recording is the recording of Gu Shi'an talking to him about the deal.

I have to say that Chen Xun is simply an out-and-out villain. He actually left himself a back hand a long time ago.

It's a pity that he can't threaten her anymore.

Gu Shi'an coldly scolded despicable.

Chen Xun didn't care, and said with a slight smile: "It shouldn't be difficult for you to know Chen Xiao's whereabouts, sister-in-law, I hope you think about it, sister-in-law." You know Chen Xiao's character, he has always been ruthless, if the recording is in his hands, sister-in-law, you still have to think about what he will do to you. I'm not in a hurry, sister-in-law, it's okay to reply to me after you think about it. It's just that if this time drags on for a little longer, I send the things in my hand, and I can't intercept them back if I want to. ”

His tone was creepy. Gu Shi'an hung up the phone directly, and Chen Xun didn't call again.

I had to talk to Chen Xiao about this, Gu Shi'an didn't call him directly, but called Assistant Sun.

Assistant Sun can't be the master of this matter, so let Gu Shi'an drag it first. said that Chen Xiao was busy, and he told him for a while and then replied to her to see what to do.

As long as it doesn't involve Gu Shi'an's safety, since Chen Xun wants Chen Xiao's whereabouts so much, it's good to give him one.

When Assistant Sun knocked on Chen Xiao's office door, he was on the phone. Chen Xiao said a word to come in, and he directly pushed open the door of the office.

Chen Xiao didn't end the phone immediately, he just stood on the side, waiting for his phone call to finish, and then said: "Mr. Chen, Mrs. Chen just said that Chen Xun called her, saying that she wanted to know your recent whereabouts. ”

Chen Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly, a sneer appeared on his lips, and he said, "Is he in a hurry?" ”

Yes, it's time, he should be in a hurry.

Chen Zhengkang overheard their mother and son talking, if they didn't suspect much at the time, now that they have been missing for so long and can't be contacted, it is obvious that he can be sure that he heard their conversation. It was impossible for him not to be in a hurry.

He is clear, Chen Zhengkang heard their conversation and hid, which proves that he is not on the same line as him, then, what he can find, naturally only Chen Xiao. That's why he asked Gu Shi'an to tell him about Chen Xiao's whereabouts.

Assistant Sun's eyes flashed slightly, and he said, "Mr. Chen, since he wants to know your whereabouts, I think we can use it." ”

Chen Xun was obviously sick and rushed to the doctor. He's already messed up.

Chen Xiao didn't speak for a while, and after a while, he leaned back on the sofa and said, "No." He was not willing to let Gu Shi'an take any risks.

After a slight pause, he continued: "No matter how you lay out the layout, there can't be any mistakes. ”

They can't afford to lose now. If you lose, it's not just Chan who loses.

Assistant Sun naturally knew what he was worried about, and now that they were facing Chen Xun and the others, they didn't have much chance of winning. It is obviously not a wise move to lose both.

He wouldn't refute Chen Xiao, and asked, "Then ...... Miss Gu?"

Chen Xiao stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and said, "I'll talk to her." ”

Assistant Sun didn't say anything more now, and answered yes. He didn't leave immediately, poured Chen Xiao a glass of water, and then asked, "Where do you think they will do it?" ”

Xiao Si's personality has always been anxious, and since he has made a plan, now, it must have begun.

Chen's own factories have a number of factories, and they don't know where they will choose the location.

Chen Xiao didn't speak, and after a while, he said lightly: "Let people follow Chen Xun for a while." It should be the place he has been to, the least he has been. ”

At this time, it is sensitive, and Chen Xun may not pass, so he can only wait slowly. Wait until they are completely relieved.

Assistant Sun responded yes at this time.

He was worried that Chen Zhengkang's whereabouts would be exposed, and asked, "Is the place where Mr. Chen is staying?" ”

Chen Xiao nodded and said, "I've already sent the people." ”

At this moment, he suddenly remembered what he looked like when he saw Chen Zhengkang. Where he has his usual appearance, he is not much better than a beggar.

He fled in a hurry, and he didn't even take the money. When the money on his body ran out, he wanted to withdraw the money, but he was afraid that Chen Xun would know his whereabouts, so he didn't dare to withdraw the money. Because he owed money to the hotel, he was finally beaten and thrown out.

He wanted to call Chen Xiao, but he didn't dare to call. In the end, he asked an honest old man who sold newspapers to call him.

He lived in the old man's house, and he was wearing the old man's clothes, and he was as depressed as a begging man called Hanako on a bamboo bed. It's rare that the old man doesn't dislike him.

Chen Xiao quickly came back to his senses, saw that Assistant Sun was still standing at the door, and asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

Assistant Sun then said, "Are you planning to always arrange people over there?" ”

Chen Xiao was silent for a moment and said, "For the time being, I am over there." It's relatively safe over there. ”

Assistant Sun nodded, closed the door and went out.

Chen Xiao stayed in the office, took out a cigarette from the table and smoked it.

Chen Xiao returned to the old mansion with the doctor in the evening, when the aunt was no longer there. But he didn't let Chen Zhengkang come out, but took the doctor upstairs.

He said that he would find a doctor for Chen Zhengkang today, but he only came over at night. With Chen Zhengkang's usual temper, he would definitely make a big fuss, but he didn't make a fuss this time. After being examined by the doctor, the medicine was prescribed.

After prescribing the medicine, the doctor left quickly, Chen Xiao poured a glass of water for Chen Zhengkang, Chen Zhengkang took it, was silent for a while, and asked, "How is it outside?" ”

He didn't dare pay attention to that over there. I can only stay alone in the house here, so naturally there is no news.

The corners of Chen Xiao's mouth hooked up with some sarcasm, glanced at him, and said, "Is it too late for you to care about these now?" ”

Yes, although he wanted Chen in his heart. But Chen's affairs, he almost didn't take care of them.

Chen Zhengkang was a little stunned and didn't speak. After a while, he asked, "When can I go out?" ”

Chen Xiao glanced at him with a smile and said, "If you want, you can go out now." No one is stopping you. He's looking for you right now. ”

In his mouth, Chen Zhengkang naturally knew that it was Chen Xun. One of his faces turned red, and he was choked by Chen Xiao twice in a row, and he stopped talking.

Chen Xiao didn't stay in the room for long, watched him take the medicine, and then closed the door and went out.

And Chen Zhengkang in the room looked frustrated and leaned heavily on the sofa.

He was captured by the sweet words of the mother and son, and for so many years, he had not even discovered the ambition of the mother and son.

Chen Zhengkang suddenly remembered the cruel appearance when Chen Xun and He Shuqing were talking that day, he didn't dare to think about it anymore, and closed his eyes.

He has lived in vain for so many years. If he hadn't heard their conversation this time, he would never have thought that He Shuqing, who was virtuous and weak on the surface, would be so ruthless. With so much ambition.

Chen Zhengkang was frustrated, so he leaned back on the sofa for a long time and didn't move.

When Chen Xiao returned to the room, Gu Shi'an had already washed up and wiped her hair, and he stepped forward to take the towel in her hand and wiped it for her.

He wiped his hair for a while before he suddenly said, "I re-applied for your card, and don't use the previous number for the time being." No matter what Chen Xun says in the future, don't bother with it. Recently, I haven't been going out for a while. ”

Gu Shi'an wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it, so he said yes and said hello.

Chen Xiao stopped talking now, took a blow dryer to dry her hair, and then patted her head and motioned her to go to bed. He himself went to the bathroom to wash up.
