Chapter 593: Chapter 593: Ying Zi is Not Rare Either
"Mom!"
The call from Zhu Qianying interrupted Chen Jing’s thoughts.
"Hm?" Chen Jing turned her head to look at her daughter.
"Dinner’s ready!" Zhu Qianying, supporting her by the shoulder, led her out of the kitchen.
The servant had already set the table, but Chen Jing was nowhere to be seen. Zhu Qianying was getting worried, and decided to check on her.
Sure enough, she found her mother standing in front of the kitchen counter, holding the phone, staring blankly at the cabinet, lost in her thoughts.
Probably, she was thinking about the situation with her uncle again.
"Mom, how about we go for a walk after dinner, okay?"
Indeed, Chen Jing and her daughter had been back for quite some time, and they hadn’t really gone out. For both Zhu Qianying and Chen Jing, there was a strange feeling of unfamiliarity with L City, a place they had left for five years.
Chen Jing understood her daughter’s concerns. She was worried that her mother was overthinking things and suggested that they go out to change the scenery.
"Never mind, it’s too hot out there."
Chen Jing was not willing to go out and about. Just a few days ago, Zhu Zhizhou had caused a scene at her shop. Who knows what he will do next.
Moreover, if her parents and older brother were forced to leave by the Zhu family, then the Zhu family was really terrifying.
She definitely wouldn’t risk her daughter’s safety just because of her own problems.
If she had known how terrible the things Zhu Junwei had done were, much more than what she was aware of, she would have probably told her daughter to stay home and avoid trouble.
Despite her daughter’s attempts to persuade her, Chen Jing, who had made up her mind, refused to go out.
In the end, Zhu Qianying had to give up.
Meanwhile, on the other hand, Yi Changxing, who had been detained for obstructing justice, was finally released today.
The reporters who received the news were waiting outside. As soon as they saw Yi Changxing come out, they immediately surrounded him.
Yi Changxing, who had been detained for a few days, looked very ragged. Even with the bandage on his face, you could see the bruises. He was limping out, supported by a crutch. The sight of him took the media by surprise.
However, the media were used to dramatic scenes, and soon one of them handed a microphone to him.
"Mr. Yi, were you a victim of police brutality?"
This topic was also a potential headline. Hence, the other reporters immediately quieted down, extending their microphones towards him, waiting for Yi Changxing to lose his temper and start cursing.
Surprisingly, Yi Changxing, who was always known for his abrasive personality, was exceptionally docile this time.
"No, it was because I resisted arrest that these injuries happened."
The reporters were shocked!
However since the person involved calmly gave such an answer, others couldn’t probe any further. After all, they were still at the entrance of the police station.
If they were not careful, the next one who could be taken into custody and come out looking ragged might be them!
The reporters, obtaining this sincerely repentant image of Yi Changxing, were left at a loss for how to report the story as it transpired.
Basically, the news with no conflict or shocking elements wasn’t worth watching!
As for how Yi Changxing got injured, only he and those involved knew.
Later at Tong village, in the office specially designated for the head of the family.
Ke Kai, holding his instant noodles, was gossiping with Yan Shao about the video news he just watched.
"Sir, your move really worked. Just look at Yi Changxing acting like a good civilian! It’s so satisfying!"
Yan Shao covering his nose, gave Ke Kai a disgusted look, "Bug off!"
Ke Kai deliberately pushed his bowl of instant noodles a bit towards him, "Sir, according to research, instant noodles actually contain enough calories and nutrients for the human body’s normal functioning. It’s cheap and fast, it’s just that... the taste is... a bit strong!"
Ke Kai knew his boss had a disdain for the smell of instant noodles. But he’d been eating alone for two days in a row, even though the boss lady had prepared food for two. Yet, his boss wouldn’t even let him taste a bit.
So, you think the taste of instant noodles is awful? Serves you right!
Feeling aggrieved and retaliating in the spirit of "if I can’t eat well, you won’t fare better either", Ke Kai continued to push the instant noodles towards him.
yould Yan, the young master, tolerate continuous provocation from someone else?
Getting up, he grabbed Ke Kai by the collar, and unceremoniously threw him out the door.
Just as Ke Kai was about to voice his grievances, Yan Shao glared at him, "Deal with that stubborn hard bone, Zhu Junwei. As a reward, I’ll treat you to a full-course Manchu banquet and let you use the helicopter for three days."
After saying this, Yan Shao didn’t wait for Ke Kai’s protest, and he directly shut the door with a bang.
Sitting back down, Yan Shao’s gaze deepened further as he faced the computer screen with the brief report about Yi Changxing.
To him, Yi Changxing was never a big issue. It was Zhu Junwei...
He was a tough nut to crack!
Yan Shao closed down his computer, went to the living room, and started eating the lunch that Zhu Qianying had prepared for him.
Today, Bai Shao with Xiao Lizi and her temporarily discharged-for-the-day mother Bai Xiangdong went out for fun. After the mother and daughter duo set off, Zhu Qianying escorted him to the entrance and handed him a bag containing his lunch, and said something to him.
"Yan Shao, could you help me investigate the situation at the Zong’s?"
It seemed that the girl, Zhu Qianying, was genuinely concerned for Bai Shao’s mother and daughter.
Well, it was to be expected. If something happened to Qin Xiu or Ke Kai, as their friends, he would surely worry and do everything he could to help.
Because they were friends who had gone through hardships together.
Possibly, Zhu Qianying received a lot of help from Bai Xiangdong and Bai Shao when she was fifteen or sixteen.
Of course, these were just Yan Shao’s assumptions.
The girl Zhu Qianying, didn’t like to mention the past. Probably, she didn’t want her emotions to get trapped in the past and couldn’t move on.
Even if Zhu Qianying hadn’t mentioned it, Yan Shao had already asked Ke Kai to investigate it.
It was just that the results hadn’t been feedback yet.
He thought, perhaps, Jiang Qi, assistant to Zong Zhe’s appearance was not a coincidence.
Just as Yan Shao finished eating, Ke Kai came rushing in fiercely.
"Sir, there’s a new development!"
Yan Shao initially thought this must be something related to Zongs or that Zhu Junwei finally softened his stance, or perhaps they had thoroughly investigated Chen Jing’s family situation.
However, he learned that the new situation Ke Kai was talking about was not any of the things he had anticipated. Instead, it was something he had slightly overlooked.
"Sir, the board of directors of Mingxuan Group just elected Zhu Haoming as the acting president and acting chairman to temporarily take over all responsibilities of Mingxuan Group, replacing the missing Zhu Junwei!"
"Zhu Haoming?"
Ke Kai nodded, "Yes, the fourth son of Zhu Zhizhou."
Yan Shao raised his eyebrows, "Wasn’t he married into the Song Family, and under the control of Song Zhicheng? How did he come back to Mingxuan?"
Ke Kai laughed, "Zhu Zhizhou only has four sons. The eldest son is in prison, the second one is a disgrace living abroad, the third one disappeared, who else can he turn to if not this son? And even if Zhu Zhizhou begged Ying Zi to return, Ying Zi wouldn’t care, would he?"
