"We asked Xi Mengna to identify the photos of the gangsters," Miao Ying said. "After she saw the photos, she asked us to see Zhao Yu in person!"
"You …" Miao Kun rolled his eyes and asked, "You didn't tell her about the Volvo Building, did you?"
"Of course not," Miao Ying replied. "We didn't even mention Zhao Yu to her!"
"Oh … That's strange," Miao Kun said with a frown. "It seems that my previous guess was right. Xi Mengna must have a lot of secrets that she hasn't told her!"
"Zhao Yu," Miao Ying said as she pushed the wheelchair to the bed. "Since she asked to see you, why don't you go see her and see what she has to say?"
"Ah …" Zhao Yu suddenly yawned and lay lazily on the bed. "Miao Miao, I'm too tired today. I have a lot of things to do tomorrow, so I'd better get some sleep first!"
"Hmm …" Miao Kun frowned. "Zhao Yu, I think Miao Miao is right. No matter what her purpose is, what's wrong with you seeing her first?
"Let's hear what she has to say first. What if she really knows where the gangsters came from? Even if she wants to use the information she knows to make a deal with us, it's not too late for us to discuss it!
"Yes!" Miao Ying said. "What if she has important information? We can't miss this opportunity. "
"Ah …" Zhao Yu yawned again, then covered his head with the cup and said, "Let's talk about it tomorrow! I'm a famous person now. I don't have to show up just because someone tells me to. How embarrassing would that be? "
"You …" Miao Ying pouted and immediately lifted the quilt. "Zhao Yu, why do I feel that you don't want to see her for another reason? Is there something wrong with the two of you? "
"Don't … Don't joke around!" Miao Kun knew about Zhao Yu and Xi Mengna kissing in Miracle Island, so he quickly changed the subject. "What problem could they have? From what I see, Zhao Yu must have his reasons for not wanting to go, right? "
With that, Miao Kun patted Zhao Yu's thigh and said with a smile, "Hurry up, Zhao Yu, explain it to me!"
"Hey, hey, hey … Be careful …" She almost hit Zhao Yu's injured knee. Zhao Yu quickly sat up and said impatiently, "I have my reasons for not seeing her!
"Can't you see? She was using me to test you … "Zhao Yu spread his hands and explained," Think about it. She had just asked to see me, Detective Zhao Yu, and I, Zhao Yu, appeared in front of her!
"Then … she will know that I am also involved in this matter. Moreover, we are very anxious to know the identity of those criminals. This way, once she proposes conditions to negotiate with us, we will be passive, understand?"
"Oh … I understand!" The father-in-law hurriedly added, "You're really thinking long-term. You're just trying to push her a little, aren't you?"
"Of course!" Zhao Yu said bitterly. "It's just like how you businessmen do business. You obviously want something, but you can't show it. Otherwise, the other party will take advantage of your weakness and raise the price!
"So, in order to deal with Xi Mengna, we must be patient and delay her for a few more days." Zhao Yu raised the corner of his mouth and said, "When that time comes, she will be the one panicking. Then, we will be able to achieve our goal. Do you understand now?"
Miao Ying did not speak, but she agreed with Zhao Yu's words.
Moreover, Miao Ying had a faint sense of jealousy in her heart. She was jealous that Zhao Yu was thinking long-term and not as impetuous as she was.
"Just watch," Zhao Yu continued. "Xi Mengna took the initiative to see me because she wanted to use this incident to gain her freedom!
But, can we really let her go? Because of Xi Wei's death, she still holds a grudge against me and father-in-law. If we really let her go, we will be in danger!
"Since we can't agree to her conditions, how can we negotiate with her?"
"Yes …" Miao Kun sighed. "The issue of how to deal with Xi Mengna is indeed a bit awkward!
Although she is a murderer, she has been extradited from the country. So, now we are in a bit of a dilemma. We can't let her go, but we can't let her go either! "
"Oh …" Zhao Yu thought for a moment, then said, "In that case, we can't negotiate with her so easily!
On the contrary, I think it's better for us to solve this matter through other means! Then, we will know how valuable Xi Mengna really is! "
"Good, very good!" Miao Kun gave him a thumbs-up. "Zhao Yu, I am more and more at ease with you! At this rate, it won't be long before I can pass on all my skills to you! "
Zhao Yu and Miao Ying rolled their eyes at Miao Kun's words.
"Okay!" Miao Ying pushed the wheelchair aside. "In that case, we will listen to Lord Zhao Yu!"
"Oh, by the way …" Miao Kun suddenly remembered something and asked Zhao Yu, "I heard from Ding Lan that you want to apply to the higher-ups to let that Middle Eastern woman go, right?
"I know that she helped me escape from the House of Sin, but she is still Yusuf's subordinate, and Yusuf is no longer a friend!"
"I know," Zhao Yu said, sitting up in the hospital bed. "But, I made a promise to her, so I must keep it!"
"Um … Okay!" Miao Kun said. "I can make the decision about the Middle Eastern woman. If you agree, I can order her release now!"
"No!" Zhao Yu suddenly waved his hand and said, "I have to let her go, but not now. I still have to talk to her tomorrow!"
"Oh, but … I don't quite understand." Miao Kun frowned. "That Middle Eastern woman just came in by accident. She doesn't seem to know anything about the Regal Building. So, why are you still talking to her? "
"Aren't you going to pass on your skills to me?" Zhao Yu snorted. "Then don't worry about it! Now, I will give you the most important task. Hurry up and book the best private room in the best restaurant in Shanghai. Our family reunion must not be too simple!
"Oh … Also, you have to pay the bill tonight!"
"You …" Miao Kun clenched his fists and glared at him. "How dare you blackmail your father-in-law!"
"No, no, no, I am giving you a chance!" Zhao Yu said quickly. "If you pay the bill, then all the credit for this family reunion will naturally go to you!"
"You …" Miao Kun gritted his teeth. "You … Do you need me to open two more bottles of Sauvignon?"
"Of course, that would be best!" Zhao Yu said, gritting his teeth. Miao Kun was so angry that his hair stood on end.
"Zhao Yu …" Miao Ying said worriedly. "The matter at the Regal Building is so urgent. Should we put the family reunion on hold for now?
"Let's meet again after the task is completed?"
"No!" Zhao Yu said firmly. "No matter how urgent the task is, it is not as important as our family getting together for dinner!
"Father-in-law," Zhao Yu said to Miao Kun. "There is one more thing I need to trouble you with!"
"What is it?" Miao Kun's face was gloomy.
"Inform the housekeeper," Zhao Yu said. "Bring Li Jie here! Li Jie is my and Miao Miao's godson, so he is also part of the family!
"Family reunion can't be without him, right?"
"Yes, my Lord Zhao!" Miao Kun's eyes narrowed into slits.
"Oh, and …" Zhao Yu said. "There is one more thing!"
"You …" Miao Kun began to tremble, as if to warn Zhao Yu that there was a limit to his patience.
"You can go out now," Zhao Yu said calmly. "I want to be intimate with your daughter, so you don't have to look around …"
"You … I … You …" Miao Kun's face was twisted.
"What are you looking at? Get out!" Zhao Yu said. He waved at his father-in-law. "Don't worry, I only hurt my leg. It's not a big deal …"
