Mr. Mao paused and glanced at Chu Mu, with a deep taste in his eyes.

"But-you also know that the shareholders' meeting does not have so much patience and ability to play the game of brother switching the position of chairman with you, since your position is unstable, it is better to hand over the company to me, and let me lead Chu's enterprise to a better future."

"You think you can lead the Chu Clan? Just by your indiscriminate means? ”

"Chu Mu, the current situation is that you are not qualified to refuse me!" Mr. Mao knew what he was sarcastic, and suddenly his voice became a little heavier. "I also don't want something to be resolved in a way that can be resolved with good talks, and it has to be turned into a tough one."

As soon as the words fell, the bodyguard took out a gun from his pocket and pointed it at Chu Mu.

Chu Mu was still smiling, and very indifferently exposed President Mao's lie: "If my wife was in your hands, I would have found her a long time ago, but in the current situation, you just want to use lies to deceive me into handing over the Chu clan, and my wife will not return to me because of this." ”

Without waiting for Mr. Mao to speak, Chu Mu made a cold face and continued: "But if I let me know that someone dares to hurt Qingruo, I will never let go of anyone involved in this matter." ”

——

Chu Shijia was handling business in the company when he suddenly received an unfamiliar number.

The other party only sent one message.

As long as you promise to marry Yan Qingruo, then Yan Qingruo will be released unharmed immediately, and once you agree, you will never be allowed to regret it.

Chu Shijia looked at the message from an unfamiliar number and was silent for a moment.

His hands were trembling slightly, and the words on the text messages were filled with a temptation that was impossible to refuse. He wanted to agree, but when he thought of the 'promise' he had made to Chu Mu and Yan Qingruo. He was in a dilemma.

On the one hand, it is the only clue to save Yan Qingruo, and on the other hand, it is a promise between his younger brother and sister-in-law.

He hesitated for a moment, then finally decided.

He stood up and walked out the door, where the assistant was sitting in the assistant's office, in the same room as the vice chairman's office. Seeing Chu Shijia come out, she quickly got up and greeted her.

"Vice President Chu, there is a document here that you need to deal with, and I am in a hurry."

Chu Shijia took it and looked at it, and found that there were some problems in the contract negotiated with a certain company recently, he thought about it for a while, and said to Xiao Lin: "You take it and make some modifications to cooperate with the other party's intentions." ”

Xiao Lin was a little embarrassed, "But—the other party means to let you take a look." Then make an appointment for a meeting. ”

Chu Shijia frowned slightly and asked, "When do they want to talk?" ”

Xiao Lin took a look at the edited itinerary on his mobile phone and reported to Chu Shijia: "The other party means that the sooner the better." Vice President Chu, you don't have too urgent matters to deal with today, if you can, I will propose to the other party to make an appointment today. ”

"Nope." Chu Shijia quickly refused, and in the face of Xiao Lin's puzzled expression, he realized that he was a little anxious, and he almost missed his mouth, changed his face to an indifferent face, and explained: "I have an urgent matter that must be dealt with now, and I want to leave the company for a trip." ”

Xiao Lin was anxious when he heard this, and said to Chu Shijia: "Mr. Chu is not in the company now, and a bunch of affairs of the company are still waiting for you to deal with, if you leave at this time, a lot of work will be delayed because of this!" ”

Chu Shijia's face was displeased

, asked rhetorically with a serious expression.

"What? Now I need your permission to do whatever I want to do? ”

Xiao Lin, as an assistant personally recruited by Chu Mu, knew clearly what she should and should not do. The most important thing is to solve problems for the company and help Chumu deal with all the work affairs. Now that Chu Mu is not there, she was entrusted by Chu Mu to assist Chu Shijia well.

Hearing him ask, she looked embarrassed and explained anxiously: "Vice President Chu, Mr. Chu entrusted me to assist you in your work before leaving the company, if you leave suddenly now, I will ...... It's hard to do. In case something goes wrong with the company, and I can't find you to solve it, if something happens at that time, Chu will always find me trouble. ”

"Then don't tell Mr. Chu the news that I left the company."

After Chu Shijia finished speaking, he directly pushed Xiao Lin away and walked past her.

He didn't think about discussing this matter with Chu Mu at all, after all, this matter was unfair to Chu Mu, although it was a happy event for him, he didn't have much expectations. The main purpose now is to get in touch with the other party and confirm Yan Qingruo's safety!

He didn't feel selfish, he just wanted to help Yan Qingruo.

Xiao Lin couldn't stop him, so she could only watch him disappear around the corner, took out her mobile phone and wanted to contact Chu Mu, but she was worried that her troubles would lead to some trouble, so she could only sigh and put away her phone.

Let's not do too many things that don't matter......

Since the last time the two brothers quarreled, the entire Chu clan almost collapsed, and she didn't want to see this tragedy happen again, not to mention, she still had to go through her own hands.

Kobayashi returned to his place and continued to keep his head down and deal with business.

——

The other side.

Yan Qingruo stayed in a house where she didn't know the direction because she was imprisoned.

This time, the other party was obviously more shrewd than last time, and directly closed all the windows in the room, except for a door that allowed Lin Li to deliver food, basically Yan Qingruo had no chance of contact with the outside world.

Fortunately, since the last incident, Lin Li's attitude towards Yan Qingruo has obviously improved a lot.

He even took the initiative to ask her if she was hungry.

"You're pregnant now, so you guess you have a big appetite, right? I don't see you haven't eaten much at noon, and now you should be hungry. Lin Li spread out her hand, and it turned out that she had secretly brought in a large piece of roast chicken from outside.

Yan Qingruo looked at her gratefully, just when she was hungry, she took the roast chicken and tore it apart, and handed it to Lin Li, although Lin Li took special care of her on the way to change places, but Yan Qingruo felt that there were some things that had to be guarded against. After all, in the final analysis, Lin Li still accepted the other party's money to monitor her 'bad guys'.

Lin Li guessed Yan Qingruo's concern, took the roast chicken and took a big bite of it, and praised it with embarrassment: "It tastes so good, when I was in the mountains before, I often missed the taste of this restaurant's signature roast chicken." ”

Yan Qingruo saw that she didn't have any 'poisoning' reaction after eating it, so she was relieved.

At this time, her stomach was indeed rumbling with hunger, and as the months grew, the children in her belly became more and more demanding for nutritional intake, and she sometimes wondered if she was pregnant with twins, and the amount of food was several times larger than usual.

She gulped down the roast chicken and thought it tasted really good. It may also be that she is hungry, and everything she eats is very tasty, and she bites it out loud and has no image.

The two women were talking while eating roast chicken.

"Recently, the guards have changed again, they are more indifferent than the previous ones, they don't talk to me at all, and I feel like I'm about to become a bird under surveillance like you."

"Isn't that still me?" Yan Qingruo looked at her with a smile. I always feel that since the last incident, Lin Li has let down a lot of guard against herself, and even takes the initiative to talk to her about the outside world. Yan Qingruo has also used these conversations to relieve her boredom recently.

Lin Li shrugged her shoulders, she had finished eating the roast chicken in her hand, Yun cleaned the oil on her fingers, and stared at the roast chicken in Yan Qingruo's hand with some nostalgia, as if she hadn't eaten enough.

Yan Qingruo very gently gave her a piece of the roast chicken in her hand, and seeing that she was hesitant to take it, she directly stuffed the roast chicken into Lin Li's hand and urged: "Hurry up and eat it!" After all, you bought it, don't worry about it so much. ”

Lin Li took it at this time, and seeing that Yan Qing was so good, she continued; "Do you still have morning sickness?"

"Nope." Yan Qingruo shook her head, she didn't dare to confess so much to Lin Li. But there is something I want to ask Lin Li to know the truth.

"Have they had new plans lately?"

Fortunately, Lin Li was kind to her, sometimes when the guards were not there, she would let her go out and walk around the house, and she overheard the conversation of a bodyguard earlier.

It seems that the mastermind behind the scenes wants to marry her to Chu Shijia, if Chu Shijia agrees to this marriage, then she can go home safely. Of course she didn't believe it. If you can let go of yourself so easily, the other party won't go to such great lengths to hide yourself.

Lin Li frowned, she knew what she should say and what she shouldn't say, and she didn't tell Yan Qingruo the truth.

"I don't know much about that."

"Can I borrow your phone again to call my husband?" Yan Qingruo looked at Lin Li pleadingly.

Lin Li hesitated for a moment and refused: "Something happened to you last time, if I call you again this time, if something happens, he will definitely find out about me." ”

"Okay." Yan Qingruo was a little lost.

"You eat slowly, I'm going down. Otherwise they would have doubted it. Lin Li clearly realized that if she continued to talk, she couldn't help but soften her heart, so she stopped herself from having this idea in time.

Widening the distance between her and Yan Qingruo, maybe she won't have to worry so much.

Watching Lin Li get up and leave, Yan Qingruo saw the mobile phone she put in her pocket and thought of a way.

Before Lin Li went out, she repeated the old trick and screamed.

Lin Li turned back to her and asked. "What's wrong?"

Yan Qingruo pressed her face and wailed in pain: "I seem to have bitten a very hard bone, and now my teeth hurt so much." ”

Lin Li finally relented, walked over to help her look at her teeth, and then said very firmly: "It's okay, it may be that you are a little weak when you are pregnant now, you better pay attention." ”

She got up and turned to leave, watching the door close, Yan Qingruo took the stolen mobile phone in her hand, looked at the door apologetically, and said a small apology to Lin Li.

"I'm sorry, I'm going to use you again."

Then, before Lin Li found out, she quickly dialed Chu Mu's phone.
