After this series of sudden changes, not much time had passed even though it seemed like a lot of things had happened.
When the cruise ship returned to Zhonghai, it was only dusk.
The members of the Red Thorns Society returned to their respective halls. Although the world had changed, no one had any doubts, at least not on the surface.
Although Rose said that she was no longer the president, what truly brought fear to everyone was Yang Chen's last words to everyone — God knows what this devil meant when he said not to disturb his peaceful life. What did he mean by that?
Therefore, these people only wanted to manage their subordinates and obediently do their own things under the new president.
Yang Cheng asked Xiao Zhao to tell her brother, Chen Bo, about Chen Rong's death. As for the cause of death, he told her that she had participated in Situ Mingze's revenge and jumped into the sea when she was exposed. However, there was no need to mention how she was eaten by sharks.
Yang Cheng didn't want to hide it from Chen Bo. Yang Cheng didn't care what the man who was now with Chanel thought. He had asked Chen Bo if he was willing to let his sister follow Qiangwei, and Chen Bo had agreed. Later, Chen Rong started to go into the underworld. As Chanel's man, it was impossible for him not to know what his sister was doing.
Since Chen Bo didn't stop him from then on, he should have been mentally prepared. In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that Chen Rong was his sister, Yang Chen would've killed this rebellious woman long ago on the streets.
Then, Yang Cheng and Qiangwei took a car back home. Since Qiangwei's house was destroyed, she had to go home with Yang Cheng first.
In the living room, Mo Qianni, who had calmed down, was waiting for Yang Cheng and Chen Bo's return with Lin Ruoxi and Guo Xuehua. Before this, Ma Guifang had come home from work, and Zhenxiu had also returned home from the orphanage.
Seeing that Yang Chen and Rose were safe and sound, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
"Is everything settled?" Guo Xuehua stood up and asked.
Yang Cheng nodded. "It's no trouble at all. I just wanted to do a clean job, so I went out to sea."
"Sailing?" Guo Xuehua and the others were puzzled.
Yang Cheng briefly explained what had happened. When he mentioned Chen Rong, everyone sighed, especially Zhenxiu. She looked a little scared. If Choi Yeon hadn't dragged her into the police station, she might have walked into the abyss too.
But after the discussion, the atmosphere in the hall became strange.
Although they lived next door, most of the time, it was just Ma Guifang, Guo Xuehua, and Mother Wang chatting and drinking tea together.
Lin Ruoxi, Mo Qianni, and Qiangwei would never gather together like this. At this moment, because the two girls had nowhere to go, and even their belongings were destroyed, they had to start from scratch. They could only sit in the living room and look at each other.
Zhenxiu, on the other hand, was filled with anticipation. She seemed to be very interested in what her three sisters would say in such a situation.
Guo Xuehua tugged at Yang Cheng's sleeve and whispered, "Son, what should we do next?"
"How would I know?" Yang Cheng wasn't sure either, so he pretended to be innocent and didn't know anything.
After a while, Lin Ruoxi finally opened her mouth and said naturally, "Why don't you stay in our house tonight? There are empty rooms here."
But before she could finish, Mother Wang reminded her, "Miss, we can't do that. Many parts of our house were blown up, and the guest room collapsed. Actually, we have to move too. This house might not be safe anymore. "
Lin Ruoxi opened her mouth. She didn't notice this and said it casually, but she made herself embarrassed.
Qiangwei smiled and said, "Since we are moving, I have a suggestion. Why don't we look around and see if there are any suitable houses for us to live in now? We have been neighbors for a long time, so why don't we continue to be neighbors?"
Hearing this, everyone was stunned, especially Guo Xuehua and Mother Wang. They didn't expect Qiangwei to say that they should continue to stay together!
Wasn't it obvious that she wanted to be close to Yang Cheng?
Although Mo Qianni liked it, she couldn't support Qiangwei in front of Lin Ruoxi, so she could only be the silent one. Ma Guifang also knew her daughter's difficulty, so she also kept silent. But in her heart, she agreed with Qiangwei's suggestion.
As for Yang Cheng, he was happy. He grinned and kept nodding.
Lin Ruoxi stared straight into Qiangwei's eyes, and the two women looked at each other unreservedly.
Lin Ruoxi thought that Qiangwei was provoking her, but after a while, she found that Qiangwei's eyes were just asking kindly, without any intention of competing.
She felt sour in her heart. When did she become such a suspicious woman? Even if they lived close to each other, should she be afraid of her? Lin Ruoxi thought gloomily.
"That's a good idea. Anyway, money isn't a problem. Let's choose a good house that we can live in now!" Lin Ruoxi agreed.
Hearing this, Guo Xuehua interrupted with a smile, "That's a good idea. I'm quite familiar with Yulan and Qianni's mother. It's good for us to have more companions at home when the younger ones go to work."
Mother Wang and Ma Guifang looked at each other and smiled. The three beautiful women were all very willing.
The matter was settled just like that. For Lin Ruoxi and Qiangwei, the money to buy a house wasn't a problem at all. The key was whether everyone was satisfied.
Although Lin Ruoxi owned quite a number of properties, most of them were commercial and business buildings. Other than the previous Dragon Garden, the real houses she lived in were either luxurious villas far away from her or near Zhonghai. She had no choice but to buy another one.
After all, in the past, Lin Ruoxi only lived with Mother Wang. There was no point in having more.
With two more women in the house, it was especially lively. After Zhenxiu helped Mother Wang to prepare a simple dinner, everyone started discussing where to buy a house after they finished eating.
Lin Ruoxi took two laptops downstairs. She browsed through a website that specialized in high-end villas and residences. She evaluated the house as she searched.
"The house has to be new. It's best if it's ready to move in after the renovation. We don't have much time to buy things for ourselves. The location should be quiet and close to the mountains and rivers. It doesn't matter if it's far from the city center. Anyway, it's convenient to use the ring highway, "Qiangwei said.
Lin Ruoxi nodded, "Also, there can't be too many people."
"That's simple. You buy the most expensive one. There will definitely be fewer people," Yang Cheng interrupted.
Lin Ruoxi glared at him, "Do I need you to tell me that?"
Yang Cheng pouted and didn't say anything else.
Qiangwei turned around and asked Mo Qianni, who was smiling and not saying anything, "Qianni, what do you think? We're living together. You should tell me."
Mo Qianni shook her head, "Do as you see fit. Mom and I can do it. Besides, I can't afford a villa that's worth ten or twenty million. Mom and I can't take advantage of it. How would I dare to say anything?"
Although the woman was joking, there was a hint of self-mockery in her words. Compared to Lin Ruoxi and Qiangwei, Mo Qianni's money was really nothing. Ma Guifang only smiled and sighed, not saying anything.
"You can do it." Lin Ruoxi suddenly raised her head, her eyes were clear.
"Huh?" Mo Qianni didn't understand.
Lin Ruoxi smiled faintly, "I know. These two years, other international groups and world-class headhunters have been trying to poach you. Even LV wanted you to be the vice president of the Asia branch. If you leave Yu Lei International and go to another international group, you can be a senior executive and hold a considerable amount of shares at the same time. Billions, billions, to you, it's all in the bag. It's just that you gave up those opportunities to stay in Yu Lei to help me, isn't it? "
Mo Qianni smiled helplessly, "Why did I say it out loud? It's nothing. Back then, the old CEO promoted me because he wanted me to assist you. If I left Yu Lei for money, I would look down on myself."
"Actually, you could have gotten three to five percent of the company's shares from me, but you didn't. I've always been grateful to you, Qianni." Lin Ruoxi smiled, "I think I'm an excellent strategist, but I'm definitely not an excellent executor. So … I really have to thank you for all these years."
Lin Ruoxi's sudden sincere gratitude made Mo Qianni a little dazed, while Guo Xuehua and the others all looked at her with approval.
Ma Guifang patted her daughter's back proudly, "Girl, mom knew you wouldn't let mom down. You did the right thing. What's more important than money is a person's heart."
Human heart … Then was it right or wrong for her to have feelings for her husband?
Mo Qianni smiled shyly, "Ruoxi … Suddenly saying these words, should I be moved to tears, or should I ask you for money?"
Lin Ruoxi pursed her lips, "Money … No, but if Qiangwei asks you for rent in the future, I can help you pay for it first, and there won't be any interest!"
Yang Cheng, who was drinking tea, spat out a mouthful of water. Fortunately, he covered his mouth with his hand, and then said with a stiff smile, "Wifey, is this a cold joke?"
Lin Ruoxi blushed. She realized that everyone was looking at her with a strange expression, especially Qiangwei, who wasn't familiar with her. Her pair of watery eyes were wide open.
CEO Lin hurriedly coughed twice, "What are you looking at, look at the house …"
The three elders chuckled a few times, feeling that the atmosphere was exceptionally joyous.
On the other hand, Zhenxiu suddenly let out a "eh" sound, pointed to a picture of a villa on the screen, and said, "Sister Ruoxi, look at this, it seems to meet your requirements."
