Chapter 671: Chapter 671 Finally, At Ease

Zhu Qianying didn’t mention that Zong Mao had come to her, so as not to overly worry her friend.

"Ying Zi, thank you!" Bai Shao sincerely said on the other end of the phone.

Zhu Qianying felt pained, because, just from the voice coming through the receiver, she could feel Bai Shao’s fatigue.

"Are you silly, why are you being so polite with me?"

The two had a brief and hurried conversation. Zhu Qianying looked at the time, it was after 3 a.m., probably waking up Xiaolu would lead to a muddled half-moment where she couldn’t communicate normally with Bai Shao. And Bai Shao also made it clear that she was only given five minutes to report her safety to her family.

"Xiao Shao, Xiaolu and Uncle Dong miss you a lot. Say a few words to her, I’ll record it."

Bai Shao did as she said. The next morning, Zhu Qianying played Bai Shao’s recording for Bai Xiaolu. As soon as the little girl heard it, her tears streamed down.

Clearly, she had been holding back for a long time, and now hearing her mommy’s voice, her feelings of grievance and longing surged like a breached flood.

Zhu Qianying didn’t expect the usually strong and stubborn little girl to lose control of her emotions. She hastily embraced the girl to comfort her. Baby boy also looked anxious, holding a handkerchief, hastily pulling off a few pieces, but gently pressed over to help Bai Xiaolu dry her tears.

Bai Xiaolu cried in Zhu Qianying’s arms for quite a while. It took quite a while for her to stop, but her shoulders were still shaking violently.

Zhu Qianying felt heartbroken, she held the girl tighter, gently stroking her back to soothe her.

"Xiaolu can rest assured now, right? Your grandfather is fine, your mommy is also okay, they will return to accompany you soon."

Xiaolu gradually calmed down in her arms, and after a while, she lifted her head, looking at Zhu Qianying with her swollen teary eyes.

"Auntie Ying Zi, my grandfather will never faint again, will he?"

Zhu Qianying was startled for a moment, then firmely nodded her head, "Yes, he won’t! In the future, your grandfather will watch Xiaolu get married in good health, and might even help take care of Xiaolu’s children!"

Zhu Qianying spoke a little too far into the future. Upon hearing her, Bai Xiaolu found it funny, and she went from crying to laughing.

"Auntie Ying Zi, you’re thinking too far ahead, I’m still a child!"

Seeing the little girl finally laugh, Zhu Qianying felt her smothered feeling gradually dissipate.

On the other hand, baby boy, who was wiping Xiaolu’s tears, let out a long sigh of relief when he saw her smile.

"Bai Xiaolu, now can you feel at ease? Let’s go swimming later, okay?"

Only then did Zhu Qianying know that Bai Xiaolu had been unhappy about her mommy and grandfather for two or three days. However, in front of the adults, she didn’t say anything; she only told baby boy.

Baby boy was also quite something, keeping his little companion’s secret and not mentioning the matter to his daddy and mommy.

Nevertheless, no matter what, Bai Xiangdong was fine, and the father and daughter would return soon.

As for the future matters with the Zong Family, Zhu Qianying felt that Bai Shao would handle it well. She, as a good friend, did not need to worry about this.

While Zhu Qianying was receiving Bai Shao’s message, it seemed that Zong Mao had received the message on his side too.

That day, Yan Bo received a call from Qin Xiu, saying that Zong Mao, who had been guarding Yanhuang Group for several days, had finally disappeared today.

Yan Bo had been meeting people outside for business in the past few days, busy socializing. Adding up, he hadn’t returned to Yanhuang for almost a week. After receiving Qin Xiu’s call, he had the driver take him back to Yanhuang after finishing lunch with his guests.

When Qin Xiu saw him, he rushed back to his office like he was seeing his savior, gathered a large pile of documents, and brought them over for Yan Bo to sign.

Yan Bo looked at the documents, quickly scanning through them. If there was no problem, he would sign his name and hand them to Qin Xiu for execution.

Watching Yan Bo’s deeply focused appearance, Qin Xiu hesitated for a moment before finally asking, "Master, are we no longer cooperating with Wang Family in D City?"

Yan Bo raised his head, "Wang Wenjie?"

Qin Xiu nodded, "Hmm... We recently outsourced part of a project, didn’t we? Their company also submitted a cooperation proposal, and the terms are extremely favorable..."

"No matter how favorable his terms are, we won’t consider it!"

Having said this decisively, Yan Bo buried his head again to concentrate on the documents.

Wang Wenjie’s current predicament is his own doing, and Yan Bo, of course, played some ruthless tricks behind the scenes.

Since the downfall of the notorious political family in the capital city, Wang Wenjie, who had been buttering up the family, is perceived to be in a difficult situation.

Although business and politics seem unrelated, they are always intertwined. This is something all businesspeople understand.

Clutching onto a major political figure is like finding a big tree for shade.

Of course, if one day this big tree falls, being crushed underneath it is inevitable.

And it’s precisely because of this that both Yan Bo and his father rarely use their status as part of the old Yan family in the capital city to their advantage.

Although Qin Xiu was very tempted by the terms offered by Wang Wenjie, he dared not go against his boss’s will.

"I understand!"

"Qin Xiu, you don’t need to ask me about this in the future. From now on, we will not deal with either the Wang family, the Yi family, or the Zhu family."

Yan Bo wondered if he had been too kind recently, causing Qin Xiu to forget that he was actually a vindictive person?

"Master, I understand!"

Qin Xiu could clearly hear the blame in Yan Bo’s tone and hurriedly admitted his mistake head lowered.

"Add the Song family too..." Yan Bo added.

Qin Xiu gathered up a large pile of files and left. Back in his office, he made a call to each department head, conveying Yan Bo’s will.

"In any case, we will not accept business from the Wang family, Yi family, Zhu family, or Song family in the future. Regardless of how tempting their conditions may be, we will not cooperate."

Recently, the families mentioned by Qin Xiu were indeed having a bad luck streak.

Let’s start with the Wang family. Ever since Wang Wenjie cancelled his engagement with Yi Wei, they thought they had escaped hardship. But then, one blow came after another.

First, the major political family they leaned on fell down. After this, a series of chain reactions were triggered.

Those who were polite to him before because of the Lu family now all changed their faces. Some even denied knowing him.

Soon after, some big projects that Wang Wenjie had previously agreed upon were declined one after another by the other parties for various reasons. The reasons given were diplomatic, but all pointed to the same result: they were more unwilling to offend another party than to cooperate with Wang Wenjie.
