"Trespassing and illegal kidnapping. Take him away."
It was an understatement, but it was filled with coldness.
It made people feel cold all over.
Old Mr. Zhong was stunned and looked over.
Then he realized that Ying Zijin didn't come alone.
There were two young men in uniforms outside the door.
Old Mr. Zhong felt that the uniforms were familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen them before.
After hearing this, the two young men in uniforms stepped through the door and grabbed Zhong Tianyun's shoulders, instantly restraining him.
Zhong Tianyun panicked. He struggled with all his might. "What are you doing? Let go! Let go of me! Do you know that this is illegal?! "
The two young men in uniforms ignored him and looked at the girl, obviously waiting for her instructions.
"Thank you for your hard work." Ying Zijin didn't look at the panicking Zhong Tianyun and said calmly, "Take him away."
"Let go! Let go! "Zhong Tianyun was still roaring when he was taken out of the Zhong family's old house." Who are you? I'm going to sue you! Let go of me! "
After Zhong Tianyun was dragged away, Ying Zijin raised her leg and kicked the bodyguards out of the door.
Then she turned her head and looked at the shareholders who came with Zhong Tianyun.
The shareholders were afraid that they would be kicked out too, so they didn't dare to say a word and left in a hurry.
Old Mr. Zhong silently picked up the reading glasses on the table and put them on.
He thought that he had to get a new pair of glasses. They were too useless and always missed his granddaughter's beautiful moves.
Zhong Zhiwan was still in a daze and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
On the other side, Butler Zhong, who had broken free from the bodyguards, came over.
The next moment, he knelt down in front of the girl and said in a choked voice, "Miss Biao, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, it would be really, really …"
If Old Mr. Zhong was really taken away by Zhong Tianyun, even if he was still alive, half of his life would be gone.
This kind of thing was too common in the struggle for power between the rich and powerful families.
Butler Zhong grew up with Old Mr. Zhong and was once saved by Old Mr. Zhong. They were not brothers, but they were as close as real brothers.
However, under the circumstances just now, there was nothing he could do. Even if he were to exchange himself for Old Mr. Zhong, Zhong Tianyun would not do it.
"Grandfather Butler, please get up." Ying Zijin bent down to support him and said softly, "It's okay, it's all in the past."
Of course, she couldn't observe the future all the time, but she would sense if something important happened to the people around her.
The Ten Square World of the Jadeite House was lost seventeen days ago, which was just beyond the range of her vision.
But five days ago, the manager of the Jade Shop found out.
It was because the Ten Square World had been in a separate sealed room with several layers of protection. Unless it was an important day, it would not be taken out for display.
After signing the contract with the multinational company, he only checked it once and didn't look at it again.
After all, it had been fifty years, and the Ten Square World had been perfectly preserved. The protection system was also the most advanced at the moment.
Who would have thought that it could be lost?
Butler Zhong stood up shakily, and his voice was still choked. "Miss Biao, if you have any orders in the future, I will definitely not refuse even if I have to risk my old life!"
Zhong Zhiwan was shocked when he heard that.
Butler Zhong was in charge of managing the Zhong family's old house, but in fact, he was only loyal to Old Mr. Zhong.
He had never said such words to her father.
"Such a thing won't happen." Ying Zijin shook her head slightly. "I should be the one protecting you."
She paused. "Grandpa, I have something to tell you."
Old Mr. Zhong nodded and glanced indifferently at Zhong Zhiwan.
There was no emotion.
But the meaning was obvious.
Mrs. Zhong and Zhong Zhiwan's hearts turned cold.
This was clearly starting to dislike them.
Butler Zhong, an old man in his seventies, stepped forward to stop them, but they didn't do anything.
Zhong Zhiwan felt terrible.
She didn't want to either, but she had no choice. She couldn't beat those bodyguards.
Mrs. Zhong forced a smile and didn't dare to say anything more. She left with Zhong Zhiwan.
She looked quite embarrassed.
Butler Zhong touched his bald head. "Old Master, you talk to Miss Biao. I'll go to the kitchen to prepare some drinks for you."
After he left, only the grandfather and grandson were left in the living room.
Old Mr. Zhong had time to ask tentatively, "Zijin, who are the two young men you brought?"
He looked at the two young men. They were quite handsome and energetic.
Maybe they could develop?
Anyway, they were better than that brat from the Fu family. Their faces were too good. They were a source of trouble.
"They are from Yizi." Ying Zijin stretched lazily and yawned. "I lost the bet. Let me borrow them."
Old Mr. Zhong was stunned. He suddenly remembered and exclaimed, "The one from the capital?"
Ying Zijin nodded and picked a grape from the fruit bowl on the table.
Old Mr. Zhong immediately cracked when he heard such an affirmative answer.
In fact, other than the wealthy families in the capital, the wealthy families in other cities were also under the control of Yizi.
But Yizi was too mysterious. Even the wealthy families, as long as they weren't in power, had never heard of them.
Anyone who could enter the First Team was definitely the cream of the crop among the younger generation in the Imperial Capital.
Moreover, Yizi had a very special relationship with the International Bureau of Investigation.
His granddaughter was actually able to borrow the members of Team One for her own use?
Old Mr. Zhong pinched his thigh hard. It hurt so much that he grimaced. Then, he made sure that he wasn't dreaming.
But after the shock, his expression became serious. "Zijin, don't tell Family Ying about this."
Over the past few days, he had seen clearly what the Ying Clan was like.
After Old Master Ying passed away, Family Ying only cared about profits and no longer cared about people.
In the eyes of Family Ying, blood ties meant nothing.
"Grandpa, don't worry." Ying Zijin comforted him. "I know what I'm doing."
"It's good that you know, just in case." Old Mr. Zhong was relieved. He pondered and frowned. "But it's really difficult to deal with the loss of Ten Square World."
If they didn't sign the contract, there was still room for a refund.
The worst thing was that they had already signed the contract with the multinational company. Tomorrow was the day of delivery.
But until now, Ten Square World hadn't been found.
"Zijin, you don't have to worry about this matter." Old Mr. Zhong sighed. "This is the Zhong Group's problem. It has nothing to do with you. You're not in good health. You should rest more."
Ying Zijin looked thoughtful. "Grandpa, are you going to hold a shareholders' meeting?"
"That's right." Old Mr. Zhong's expression was cold. "Zhong Tianyun is just one of them. He's impatient and can't control himself. There are many people like him in the Zhong Group."
There must be many people who want to take advantage of this opportunity to seize power.
Zhong Tianyun was too stupid. He thought that he could control Old Mr. Zhong and get the Zhong Group.
He didn't know that he would be used by other people fighting for power.
"I don't have anywhere to go today." Ying Zijin thought for a moment. "Grandpa, do you mind bringing me along?"
**
Three o 'clock in the afternoon.
Zhong Group.
In the meeting room, all the shareholders were seated, including those who followed Zhong Tianyun to the Zhong Family.
The shareholders who didn't know that Ten Square World was missing were shocked when they heard about it.
"Isn't Ten Square World protected by the most advanced defense system? Why is it missing? "
"That's not important. The important thing is, why did you only tell us now?"
"Mr. Eugene will come to the company tomorrow to inspect the goods. Ten Square World is missing. What do we have for him to inspect?"
Old Mr. Zhong coughed and said sternly, "Silence!"
Everyone stopped talking.
One of the shareholders looked terrible. "Chairman Zhong, do you know where Ten Square World is?"
"I've sent someone to look for it," Old Mr. Zhong said calmly. "I called you here to discuss tomorrow's matter."
They couldn't find Ten Square World in a short time. They had to find a way to delay and ensure that the Zhong Group's foundation wouldn't be shaken.
Hearing this, the shareholders looked at each other and fell silent.
After a while, a shareholder said, "Why don't we ask for help from the other three families?"
Someone refuted, "What a joke. It's good enough that they don't interfere. Why would they help?"
There was a lot of competition between the four families.
That was why they used marriage to stabilize the relationship, but it was only temporary.
At this time, a middle-aged shareholder frowned and said, "Uncle Zhong, I'm not being blunt, but how can we let an outsider listen in on a meeting of this level?"
He looked at the girl standing next to Old Mr. Zhong and said unhappily, "She doesn't understand. What can she do other than cause trouble here?"
Can she find Ten Square World? Can she carve?
