After a while, he opened his eyes and became much calmer. Huang Yanan could translate what he said again.

"Your father asked you if you had contact with Rong Yu? Did you ask him about the withdrawal of investment and the partners?"

Huang Yanan looked at Shen Tang, and the tension in Shen Tang's back immediately tightened.

On the way here, she guessed that they would definitely ask her these questions. They thought it was because she was dating Rong Yu, and those people were arranged by the Rong family.

In fact, she was the only one who knew that it was not the case, but no matter what, these were beneficial for her to gain a foothold in this family, and she certainly would not deny it before.

However, she thought a lot along the way, wondering why the Shen family had been so successful in the business world over the past year. Not only did various large and excellent companies seek them out for cooperation, but it was also very easy for them to expand into overseas markets.

She didn’t know Shen Qiao was a member of the Chi family before, and she didn’t know the reason, but now, perhaps, all the help the Shen family received was given by the Chi family.

Thinking of this, Shen Tang was very unwilling. Why was Shen Qiao so lucky? He had finally driven her out, thinking that he could make her, who had taken advantage of others' good life, suffer. However, he didn't expect that her biological parents were even richer and more powerful!

So she couldn't be kicked out by the Shen family, otherwise she would lose completely. At least, she wouldn't be kicked out now!

Shen Tang smiled and said, "Mom and Dad, I've already called him. He said he's busy right now. He'll go ask what's going on when he's done."

This was the first good news Shen Baihong had heard. He breathed a sigh of relief and praised Shen Tang a few words with satisfaction. Only then did he feel like continuing to drink his porridge.

Huang Yanan finally felt like smiling. As long as Rong Yu was willing to help them, none of this would be a problem today!

Just after finishing the porridge, the secretary brought a gold-stamped invitation. Huang Yanan opened it and was overjoyed. "It's the Chi family inviting us to attend the family recognition banquet in three days!"

Shen Baihong was also happy to hear this. Although they later asked Chi Qiao to leave the Shen family, didn't they still give Chi Qiao money? Moreover, they had fed her well for more than ten years. Even if she didn't have any credit, she had worked hard! Since the Chi family was willing to give them this face, they certainly didn't want to tear their faces apart!

As long as they don't fall out, everything will be fine. Maybe the Shen family can even move to a higher level!

Life is unpredictable, we can’t just look at the good or bad at a certain moment!

A smile spread across Shen Baihong's face. He had encountered so many bad things during the day, and now good news came in the evening!

The next day, Chi Qiao still went downstairs early. Uh, yes, she went to cook again.

In order to avoid waste, she decided to start with the fried eggs. However, it seemed to be overcooked again, but it was not particularly burnt.

At the dinner table, Chi Chuan saw that Xiaomei was in a good mood, so he asked curiously: "Xiaomei, did you pick up money this morning?"

"No." Chi Qiao replied with a smile, and pointed to the fried eggs on his plate, "Second brother, I made them especially for you, try them."

Ikekawa looked down at the fried egg with a black yolk on his plate. Uh...is this edible?

"Why are there only me and Lu Ming?"

Chi Chuan looked at the fried eggs on his and Lu Ming's plates, which were neither black nor burnt, and then looked at Chi Qiao and his grandmother, who were empty in front of them.

"You two have been working hard on tending the vegetable garden recently, so I'm giving you some extra energy."

Chi Qiao said this without blushing or beating his heart, while Grandma Chi ate her food with a smile on her face.

Chichuan and Lu Ming twitched their lips. They thought that the food was fried badly but they didn’t want to waste it so they treated them as trash cans!

In the end, under the supervision of Grandma Chi, the two did not let Chi Qiao down.

"Little sister, why haven't you been live streaming these past two days?"

After swallowing the not-so-delicious fried egg with difficulty, Chi Chuan asked Chi Qiao.

I wanted to ask them last night, but Chi Qiao, who usually chats with them after dinner or tidies up the vegetable garden, just greeted them after dinner last night and went back to the house.

Grandma Chi went over and asked if anything was wrong. Chi Qiao smiled and said that it was nothing, he was just a little tired and wanted to rest early.

Several people did not dare to disturb her any further, for fear of disturbing her rest.

She made a bet with the Taoist priest and asked him to read three more divinations. Grandma Chi and the other two were afraid that Chi Qiao would lose some limbs as a result, so they didn't sleep much the whole night and kept an eye on what was going on in her room.

But Chi Qiao hadn't made any movement during the night, and now she looked like she was not missing any limbs, but full of energy and radiant. Chi Chuan couldn't help but ask.

Chi Qiao was full, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and replied: "I have something to go out for the next two days."

Several people looked at each other, and Grandma Chi asked, "Where are you going?"

"North China City."

Chi Qiao glanced at the others. She wanted to go to the river where Yan Hong was fishing, but she couldn't tell them directly that she was going to catch ghosts, so she explained, "I've been staying at home all day, and I want to go out for a walk."

They looked at each other again. If they wanted to go somewhere, why did they choose Huabei City? It is not a tourist city and there are no attractions.

"Little sister, if you want to relax, your second brother will take you to a more fun place."

Chi Chuan picked up his phone and prepared to book a flight ticket. Chi Qiao said, "No need. I have a friend in Huabei City. I can go visit her."

"Okay, we'll go with you."

Grandma Chi said that she felt that Chi Qiao was not just going for a walk, but must be going to resolve the matter of the three extra divinations she had calculated yesterday. Maybe there was someone in Huabei City who could help her, so she had to go to Huabei City.

Actually, uh, they misunderstood.

Chi Qiao asked for leave these two days and went to Huabei City because he wanted to see the ghosts in the river and collect them if possible. As for returning to the house after dinner last night, it was because he was afraid that he would not be able to collect ghosts today, so he intensified his training last night. It had nothing to do with the extra three hexagrams.

And the three hexagrams would not have any effect on her. Didn't she receive 300,000 yuan from the Taoist priest? She donated the money last night, and the merits she gained were enough to offset the punishment for prying into the secrets of heaven. Therefore, she would not be blind or lose limbs.

However, Grandma Chi insisted on going with Chi Qiao, and Chi Qiao had no choice but to go with him, so the four of them had to go together.

Huabei City and Huajing are adjacent to each other. Chichuan and Lu Ming took turns driving, and they arrived in Huabei City five hours later.

They found a hotel to eat. Although the food was delicious to ordinary people, it tasted terrible to Chi Qiao. Some of the food tasted like wax and some tasted like iron. Only the vegetable salad that the hotel focused on was tolerable, but Chi Qiao only ate a few bites.

Seeing that she couldn't eat, they were all worried. Grandma Chi and Chi Chuan felt very powerless. When it comes to power, the Chi family is second to none, but facing Chi Qiao, they seem to be unable to help at all.

After dinner, Chi Chuan asked Chi Qiao where he wanted to go.

Chi Qiao looked at the sky. It was 1:30 in the afternoon and the sun was still very hot. He said, "We have been in the car for a long time. Let's take a rest first."

The three men all agreed to her request and booked a few rooms in the hotel.
