The next day.
When the red sun rose from the east, Tan Xiu got up from the hotel bed in a daze. He was staying in Ji Mu's luxurious villa in Changxi City. He even changed the bedding in the master bedroom and gave it to Tan Xiu. As for him, he spent the night in a guest room on the first floor.
Knock, knock …
The bedroom door was knocked. As Tan Xiu opened the door, he saw Han Qingwu standing outside with a smile and her handbag in her hand.
"You got up so early?"
Asked Tan Xiu with a smile.
Han Qingwu followed Tan Xiu into the bedroom and smilingly said, "It's getting late. I heard some movements in your room, so I came over to ask. Are we going back to Shanghai directly? Or staying in Changxi City to play? I got a call from Yu Hong this morning and she complained about me. "
Tan Xiu thought for a while and asked, "Do you have something urgent? If there's nothing urgent, I can have some fun in Changxi City. I'm fine with anything. "
"Then let's stay here!" Han Qingwu immediately said. "We'll go back in the afternoon or evening."
"Alright!"
Tan Xiu casually replied. He had promised Li Laoshan last night that he would go back to Shanghai with him, so he planned to contact him later. However, Han Qingwu's next words made Tan Xiu give up the idea of contacting Li Laoshan later.
"Tan Xiu, let's have breakfast first. How about you accompany me to Yandang Ancient Town? I heard that the scenery there is very good, and I've always wanted to see it. But I've been too busy, so I haven't been able to go there until now. By the way, call Yu Hong and we'll have lunch there. "
Tan Xiu thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid I'll have something very important to deal with later. You must approve my leave at that time."
Upon hearing this, Han Qingwu immediately rolled her eyes at Tan Xiu. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said, "You actually want to bargain with me? Forget it, forget it. Who asked me to be in a good mood these two days? I promise you. "
Tan Xiu was speechless.
However, he did have a lot of things to do in the near future. On one hand, he had to think about how to make more money. On the other hand, he also had to hold the bidding for the Magnificent Tang Corporation's project in Shanghai. Moreover, he didn't go to Jingmen Island to see Gu Yan 'er during the New Year, so he planned to go there in the near future. If he had enough time, he would also go to Nine Dragons Island.
After washing up, Tan Xiu came to the first floor with Han Qingwu and saw Ji Mu, who was wearing an apron, coming out of the kitchen with two dishes.
"Bro Tang, Miss Han, you're up! Hurry up and eat breakfast. I'm the one who cooked today. You must do me the honor and eat more, "Ji Mu said with a chuckle.
"You also know how to cook?" Tan Xiu asked with a strange expression.
Ji Mu puffed out his chest and proudly said, "That's natural. Back then, in order to pick up girls … cough, cough … in order to fall in love, I spent a lot of effort on cooking. I believe in the saying that if you want to capture a person's heart, you must first capture her stomach. "
"Pfft …"
"Hehe!"
Han Qingwu couldn't help but burst into laughter, while Tan Xiu also burst out laughing. Who could have imagined that the dignified Young Master of the Ji Family in Changxi City, Ji Mu, would actually learn cooking just to pick up girls?
Four dishes and a soup, meat and vegetable matching.
Ji Mu was very thoughtful. He even put fruits and desserts on the table. It was as though he was afraid that Tan Xiu and Han Qingwu wouldn't be used to his cooking, so he also put hot milk and bread on the side.
"It's really delicious."
Han Qingwu was not a foodie, but she still ate with relish.
After eating a few mouthfuls, Tan Xiu praised, "It seems your wife will be blessed in the future."
"It's good that you like it," said Ji Mu with an embarrassed smile. "That's right, do you have any plans for today?"
"I'm going to accompany Han Qingwu to stroll around," said Tan Xiu. "We should return to Shanghai in the afternoon. Li Laoshan also told me yesterday that we're going to Shanghai together today. "
Ji Mu glanced at Han Qingwu and found that she was eating with her head lowered. Then, he said with a smile, "Since Brother Tang is accompanying Miss Han to go shopping, then I won't be the third wheel. If you're going to stay in Changxi for a few more days, call me at night, Brother Tang. If you don't want to stay, then I won't send you off. I'll visit you again when I have time later. "
"Don't be so polite with me later." Tan Xiu waved and said, "Let's drink together if we have time."
"Alright!"
Ji Mu was immediately overjoyed after hearing it. He felt that his actions from yesterday to today were really worth it.
At Yandang Ancient Town.
Tan Xiu accompanied Han Qingwu to play for most of the morning until noon. Only then did they find a restaurant and waited for Yu Hong to come over. After receiving her complaints, they had lunch together. Originally, Yu Hong proposed to go boating together in the afternoon, but Tan Xiu received a phone call and immediately gave up the plan.
"Are you sure?"
Tan Xiu's eyes flickered while holding his mobile phone.
Mouse's voice came from the phone again, "Boss, there's absolutely no mistake. I spent a lot of money to buy this information from a senior executive of the Mind Assembly Tech. Do you know how much money I spent to get this information? 6 million. That greedy bastard actually asked for 6 million from me. "
"Let alone 6 million, even 60 million is worth it," said Tan Xiu in a deep voice. "I'll immediately send someone to contact you. You're in charge of commanding them and keep an eye on Xie Zhiqiang. Call me immediately if he comes in contact with the SOE people again. "
"You're not coming in person, Boss?" asked Mouse. "That's a big deal!"
"I'm in Changxi now," said Tan Xiu. "It'll take me one or two hours to get back. Tell me the address first. I'll go find you when I get there. "
"Alright …"
He hung up the phone.
Looking at the excited Han Qingwu, Tan Xiu said, "I have an urgent matter to take care of and have to rush back to Shanghai. I'm afraid I can't accompany you to go boating. Han Qingwu, will you go back with me? Or will you go back by yourself later? "
"Since you're going back, then I'll go back too," said Han Qingwu without hesitation.
"Tan Xiu, what's the important matter that requires you to go back so urgently?" Yu Hong said with dissatisfaction. "Qingwu, it's not easy for her to come to Changxi, and I've already asked for a leave. How can I accompany her? Qingwu, if Tan Xiu has something to do, just let him go back first. Don't tell me you think I can't accompany her? "
"This …"
Han Qingwu was a bit hesitant.
"That's right. Since Yu Hong has said so, then stay and have fun first!" Tan Xiu said. "Relax and have a good life later."
Han Qingwu hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement. After all, her good sister had specially asked for a leave to accompany her. If she were to leave, it would hurt her good sister's heart!
4 PM.
Tan Xiu, Li Laoshan, and Chu Xuecheng had already arrived in Shanghai. On the way, Tan Xiu figured out the purpose of their visit to Shanghai. It was to discuss business. Since Tan Xiu had an important matter to deal with, he agreed to meet with the two in two days and then hurried to the address Rat told him.
Jingning District.
Kangsha Pharmaceutical Company.
The geographical environment here was good, and the area it occupied was not small. Only after Tang Xiu learned that the company in front of him was a subsidiary of the Mind Assembly Biotechnology. It was also the place where the pharmaceutical factory was located. Even the land was bought by Xie Zhiqiang.
"How is it? Is Xie Zhiqiang inside? "
Tan Xiu asked directly after seeing the thievish-looking Rat.
Rat politely handed over a cigarette and personally lit it for Tan Xiu. Then, he said, "He has been in there for more than four hours and hasn't come out. The entire Kangsha Pharmaceutical Factory is being watched by our people. He is definitely still inside. The intelligence bought with a lot of money shows that his secret laboratory is here. "
Tan Xiu asked, "What about the people from SOE? Are there any unusual movements? "
"Yes," said Rat. "In the past four hours, a total of two groups of people have come here. One of them is from SOE, and the other group is made up of four or five people. Their identities are very mysterious. I have already sent people to investigate them, but there is no news yet."
Tan Xiu frowned and said, "You mean that the other group of people is not from SOE?"
"It shouldn't be," said Rat. "I have investigated the number of people from SOE who have sneaked into Shanghai this time. It shouldn't be their people. I think that the other group of people is also after the gene particle. Since I can bribe the higher-ups of the Mind Assembly Biotechnology, I'm afraid that there are also other forces eyeing the company and investigating the existence of the gene particle. "
"What you said makes sense." Tan Xiu nodded and said, "Let's not act rashly for now. Let's not act rashly for now. Let's see how the other forces react first. By the way, the people from SOE and the other group of forces haven't found our people yet, have they? "
"I've arranged it very secretly," said Rat with a smile. "They absolutely can't find us."
Tan Xiu nodded and said, "Continue to keep an eye on them. Whether it's the SOE, Xie Zhiqiang, or the other group of forces, keep an eye on them. The gene particle is extraordinary. Regardless of which force gets it, they will probably be able to train a large number of experts in a very short time. Also, if the gene particle spreads out on a large scale, it will definitely affect the world's development. I don't want to see such a situation. "
Rat understood Tan Xiu's meaning. He was also aware of the power of the gene particle. According to the bragging of the Mind Assembly Biotechnology's higher-ups, obtaining the gene particle was tantamount to obtaining a large number of armed forces. Having armed forces was tantamount to controlling more power and obtaining more wealth.
"By the way, we haven't found anyone from the military. They … seem to have disappeared mysteriously. "
Tan Xiu stared blankly and frowned. "Could it be that the other group of people who came here in the afternoon were from the military?"
"Unlikely." Rat shook his head.
"Investigate them. Investigate anyone who has the power to pry into the gene particle, even if they are from the military," said Tan Xiu.
"Understood!"
Rat nodded heavily.
Tan Xiu didn't stay here. After getting on the car, he looked at Mo Awu, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, and directly ordered, "Send someone to get two sets of night walking clothes. We're going to do some activities tonight."
[I'm really sorry. There was a last-minute training session yesterday, so the update couldn't be completed. Quiet Night will try to complete the update before the end of the month. We'll update as usual today!]
