Yuan Songlai shook his head and looked at Manager Chen with a warning expression, "Do you know who this person is?" Although he is at the same level as me now, in less than a year, he may be my boss, do you say that a person like him is necessary to harm your restaurant for such a small amount of money? Manager Huang, I suggest that you investigate the beginning and end of this matter, don't there really be a murder at that time, and Xiaolin may not be able to protect you! ”

Manager Huang doesn't have a bottom on this matter, it stands to reason that the restaurant has been open for so many years, and there are many high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen among the guests, but no one has any problems eating...... Only repeat customers came, because of the background of the restaurant itself, there are few people who are open-minded.

But this time......

It's just that someone poisoned a small pot of steamed fish with chopped peppers? If it wasn't a malicious argument, then who got into the kitchen, and if it was as this man said, wouldn't it be a big deal......

After all, in the kitchen of the restaurant, few people can mix in except for the chef in and out...... But now someone can easily poison it, so if this pot of vegetables is really eaten by customers, then the restaurant will be involved in a murder!

It's just that someone is fighting for the man in front of him, or is it actually a restaurant that is fighting for it? Manager Huang fell into deep thought.

No matter how vicious the opponent is, if he wants Hanlou to disappear from the capital, he will not use such a murderous method without blinking...... There are many powerful people in Beijing, and once they are found out, it will not benefit anyone.

"Former Deputy Minister, what do you say about this...... You should also know that our restaurant can't do this kind of stupid thing at all, even if there is really a dispute with the customer, it will not use such a bad method, the boss doesn't know about it, do you want to help you get an idea? Manager Huang lowered his posture, although his boss is also a figure, but compared to these people, he is not at the same level.

Yuan Songlai didn't answer his words directly, but turned his head and handed over the right to speak to Qin Zhenyang, "Deputy Minister Qin, you should still watch and deal with this matter, although Hanlou has had the reputation for so many years, but in the end, it is a problem on your desk, you just need to look at it and solve it." It's just that it's best not to make a big fuss, people in the circle don't look up and don't look down, don't offend people. ”

Yuan Songlai also has some relationship with the Qin family, and the old man Qin is his mentor, so he will not think that nothing has happened without knowing what he has done.

Qin Zhenyang nodded, he had also heard of Director Lin of the General Staff, although he had not been in direct contact with him, so he didn't know what he was like. It's just that Director Lin is not a lineage of the Qin family, in the eyes of everyone, he is a neutral party and does not belong to any line, but no one knows what is going on secretly.

The former deputy minister and his friends continued to go back to their original positions, and a large number of guests in the restaurant had already left, obviously because Jingba suddenly foamed at the mouth and died a little taboo and fear...... As for the other part of the people who stayed, it's not that they are not afraid, they just want to see what the final result is.

"Qin ...... Qin Shao, this is the chef of the dish of chopped pepper steamed fish, I have already asked people just now, this dish has been touched by him, and it will be on the stage as soon as it is fried, and it is impossible for there to be idle people approaching it...... And this chef has been in Hanlou for five or six years, and there is a family to support at home, so it is impossible for him to have the courage to poison him. ”

Qin Zhenyang frowned coldly, "This is impossible, so where does this poison come from?" Manager Huang, don't you still think that this poison is actually me? ”

Manager Huang thought of the words of the former deputy minister, and suddenly shook his head like a rattle, and said with a sneer, "How can this be, just now the contemptible people didn't think things through, Qin Shao's character is categorical, and he will never do such a thing......"

Qin Zhenyang didn't see his face, looked at the cook standing behind him, and asked in a cold voice, "You shouldn't be the only one in the big kitchen, except for you, is there anyone else approaching your pots?" Or maybe you were absent for a while, and someone took advantage of it? ”

The cook shook his head honestly, he already knew before he came that there was something wrong with the dish he fried, and if someone ate it, it would probably kill him, but he did make several dishes in succession, and never left the big kitchen halfway.

Qin Zhenyang squinted his eyes coldly, if it wasn't someone who did it in the middle of cooking, then what about before? However, if it is a passive hand and foot on raw fish meat, I am afraid there is more than one, and the others do not have any problems! Most likely, there is something wrong with the cooks in the big kitchen...... If it's not this chef, it's possible that it's just someone else!

"Manager Huang, I hope you will give me an answer as soon as possible about this matter! As you must have guessed, if someone really wants to do it, it should also be someone from your kitchen, and I don't care who it is, all I want is a result! ”

Manager Huang wiped a handful of cold sweat on his forehead and nodded, "Definitely, definitely...... I'll get back to you as soon as I have any news. ”

In fact, he was also afraid. One day you can't find the murderer, and one day is like a time bomb, which can explode at any time...... It's just a Pekingese dog that died today, but who knows which day it will be a human being, and when the time comes, the boss will let Director Lin deal with this matter, and there is nothing he can do.

After Qin Zhenyang went back, he asked people to investigate this matter, it was not that he didn't believe in Han Lou, but this matter was still aimed at them to a greater extent, and if he didn't find it out, it was like a cancer hiding there, and it was getting deeper and deeper.

Ji Xiaoli was also scared a lot today, especially when she saw that Jingba screaming miserably and fell to the ground, if that plate of things got into her mouth, now ......

In the evening, Ji Xiaoli unexpectedly received a call from Bai Yaqin, but it was something that she didn't like.

"Xiaoli, I haven't been by your side all these years, and I haven't fulfilled my responsibilities as a mother to take good care of you, this is my dereliction of duty, and now I am very happy to see that you are doing well...... It's just that I always want to make up for you, in the best way possible, to make up for what you've suffered all these years...... I know you may think I'm hypocritical when I say this, but the only thing my mother can do is Bai's. Bai Yaqin paused.

He added, "Mom knows that you can take care of that studio very well, and now it is beginning to take shape, and it may develop bigger and better in the future." You are not incapable, and in the same way, I am relieved that I will hand over the Bai Clan to you. ”

Bai Yaqin has struggled for most of her life, and it is naturally impossible for her to stay there for the rest of her life...... What's more, he worked so hard in order to build the Bai family into a business empire as soon as possible, so that he could be firmly handed over to his daughter.

However, she didn't know if Ji Xiaoli was willing to accept all this? Perhaps Bai's company is so glamorous in the eyes of outsiders, and it is an enviable thing to work in that kind of global company, let alone become Bai's head of the family.

Ji Xiaoli was born a lazy person, but she has dreams and pursuits, so she opened Baoyi Studio on a whim, she will not give up, but it does not mean that she will give up her dream and pursue others.

Maybe Bai's Enterprise has more potential than Baoyi, but she doesn't have much energy to manage. She doesn't dream of being a strong woman who only thinks about work, it's too tiring, she just wants to have a career of her own, to be good and strong, that's enough, extra time, she wants to spend more time with her husband and two sons, so it's life, it's a home.

"Ms. Bai, I will not accept Bai's enterprise. Even if I don't have a studio under Nova, I won't accept it...... First of all, I'm not familiar with it at all, do you think that those high-level people will really be convinced by just parachuting in the past an executor? ”

Bai Yaqin was stunned and was silent for a few seconds, but she still said, "This is just the beginning, this situation will slowly improve in the future, not to mention that you have your mother by your side, I will slowly guide you and let you get familiar with everything there." ”

"However, I never thought I would like that kind of high-intensity high-voltage wire working environment...... It might take me a step up again, but I don't need to. I just want to live my little life quietly, although I love money, I will be happy to look at the series of numbers on my bank card, but I am immersed in money every day, and it may not be comfortable...... Therefore, you can find someone else to choose the successor. ”

"This ...... Xiaoli, are you unwilling to accept my compensation because you left you before you complained about your mother? Bai Yaqin was particularly disappointed in her heart, the most tangible gift she could think of to her daughter was Bai's enterprise, but she was rejected.

Ji Xiaoli couldn't cry or laugh, "Those are two different things." Don't think too much about it, think about what I said before, if you ignore your family and just be a lonely and lonely strong woman, will you be happy? I would like to ask, if you were given a choice, would you want a complete home or a fleshless company? ”

Bai Yaqin sighed, "I know, you're right, it's that I didn't think about it." I will continue to consider the choice of heir, but you will never refuse the share transfer again, right? This is more or less a little bit of mother's heart. ”

Ji Xiaoli didn't want to accept it, but the other party's words had already reached this point, and the softest corner of her heart was still touched, and she was silent for a moment and said, "I can accept a small share, but you really don't have to think about me if you have a large share." ”

"Not much, only 20 percent."

Twenty percent is not much? A consortium as big as the Bai family only eats dividends, and there are hundreds of millions of dollars a year by 20 percent.

"It's too much, in this way, let's each take a step back, ten percent good, I really don't want more." Ji Xiaoli really didn't expect that he still had the idea of pushing the money out, and he was a little funny in his heart, but he couldn't laugh.

Bai Yaqin didn't force it, "It's okay, ten percent of the shares, there are still some things waiting for you and Mr. Qin to hold a wedding, and I will transfer them to you." ”

For Bai Yaqin, everything is not as good as what she owes over the years, and she can only make up for it as much as possible in order to narrow the gap in between.

"Xiaoli? Can I come and see the two little ones again tomorrow? ”

"Absolutely."

"Xiaoli."

"Huh?"

"Mom has been waiting for you...... Mom won't force you to forgive, but I'll try. Since you don't accept it, Bai, I will look for an heir again, and when I find it, I will retreat into the background, and stay in the capital in the future, often come to see you and the two little guys, and don't be annoyed by your mother when the time comes. ”

"No, it won't." Ji Xiaoli's heart is not made of iron, although those resentments may still exist more or less, but time will wear everything away, especially if this person is already trying to redeem it.

She has never felt motherly love, but that doesn't mean that she will always push people out.

"I want to ask you a question? I heard that you have accepted a righteous son, is he very good? ”

Bai Yaqin listened to her daughter ask about this, thinking that her daughter was jealous, and her mood couldn't help but improve, "You mean Bai Xu, that kid has a flexible mind and a good way to do things, but there is less stability, and it is not suitable to be an heir." ”

"I didn't mean that...... You rest first, I'll hang up first. After Ji Xiaoli hung up the phone, she only felt that her palms were wet, she rarely said so many words to her mother, this was the first time.

As for the feeling, she can't say it well.

"Finished talking? Was it my mother-in-law calling? "The third master is best at looking at people's eyes, and seeing the change in his wife's attitude towards his mother-in-law, he doesn't mind calling his mother-in-law.

Ji Xiaoli was thinking about it at this moment, so he didn't notice the loophole in his words, "Zhenyang, do you know what my mother called me for?" Guess what? ”

"What else could it be? It should be the little thing about Bai's Enterprise, she wants to make up for you? The three masters said in one sentence.

Ji Xiaoli glanced at him in surprise, "You have mind reading skills!" How else do you know? ”

"It's very simple, I already suspect Bai Xu's head in the incident in Hanlou today, although this medicine is precious, but he is not the only one, but apart from him, others don't seem to have a motive to kill! At this juncture, he probably guessed his mother-in-law's mind and wanted to hand over Bai's business to you. As the righteous son raised by his mother-in-law for nearly twenty years, how could he be willing to hand over the identity of this heir, not himself? So if he wants to inherit the Bai clan logically, the first action is to get rid of the biggest obstacle, which is you, dear wife. ”

But she ...... She had never thought of Bai Xu as her successor, I asked tentatively just now. ”

Qin Zhenyang hugged his wife on his lap, and a look of mockery flashed in his eyes, "Praying mantis catches cicadas, Bai Xu thought he was the ultimate beneficiary, but he didn't expect that there was a yellow finch behind him!" He wanted to be the heir, but he never thought that his adoptive mother never wanted to help him sit in that position! ”
