The daughter of a general is so cool in the novel about a wealthy family
Chapter 75 Picking someone up in person
"Let's bring her back. Didn't I ask you to check her background? How's that going?"
Zhao Cheng had already prepared the information and handed it to Shi Xiao. "This is the information Zhao Mian found. There is indeed a missing girl in the nearby mountains. She looks very similar to Miss Liu Lan. She should be Miss Liu Lan. However, Miss Liu Lan's family has no other relatives. Her only relative, her grandmother, passed away three months ago."
Shi Xiao looked through all the information, but there was nothing suspicious about her background.
Shi Xiao's mind flashed with Liu Lan's eyes that were always like a frightened deer. Even if it was for the sake of repaying a favor, he had to be responsible for this girl.
"Inform Zhao Mian to prepare a place to stay and daily necessities for Liu Lan. There is no one else in her family, so she can live in Shi's house."
Zhao Cheng was obviously a little hesitant. If it was a month ago, he would not have known much about the current situation of the Shi family. Naturally, he hoped that the young master would divorce Yuan Shu as soon as he came back. But now that he knew that Yuan Shu had done so much for the Shi family and had taught the three young masters carefully, he slowly accepted this lady of the Shi family.
So he asked, "If we bring Miss Liu Lan back, what will Madam do?"
This is also what Shi Xiao is worried about. Based on his understanding of Yuan Shu, if they divorced, she would definitely cry and make a fuss, which would make things easier. But now Yuan Shu is calm, so what reason can he have for divorce?
In fact, he was even looking forward to seeing what Yuan Shu's reaction would be when he saw Liu Lan.
At this time, in the center of the 100-square-meter living room of the Jiang family's mansion, a Bohemian-style carpet was laid, and a huge chandelier with a diameter of 50 meters hung from the roof. The light shone on the polished floor, and the refracted light made the whole house look dazzling.
The man sat leisurely on the leather sofa, a pot of tea was brewing in the tea set in front of him, and a bodyguard in a black suit stood respectfully in front of him.
"Boss, according to news from Africa, Shi Xiao will be returning home in three days. Should we send someone to the airport to pick him up?"
The man slowly picked up the teacup with cracked ice and poured the tea into his mouth. "This is too conspicuous to the country. After he comes back, let him live quietly for a few days."
"Yes."
"Have Yuan Shu and Wang Shen signed the contract?"
Behind the man, a man in a beige suit, gold-rimmed glasses, and holding an iPad said, "In a week, after the auditions are over, they will sign the contract."
The man in the beige suit is called Zheng Tian. He is an orphan raised by the Jiang family. He has been with Jiang Chen since graduation and is now Jiang Chen’s personal secretary.
The man sitting on the leather sofa and drinking tea elegantly was Jiang Chen.
He is the most mysterious person in the Jiang family. Apart from the Jiang family, almost no one knows his true face. In addition, Zheng Tian has done a lot of things for him, so the entire upper class is somewhat afraid of the mysterious Jiang Chen.
After all, the invisible enemy is the most terrifying.
Jiang Chen put down the cup in his hand, and said with a hint of impatience in his calm voice, "Too slow, I will send the contract to the Jiang family today."
"Yes."
Zheng Tian was a very obedient person and never asked for too many questions. Although he was very curious about why Jiang Chen paid so much attention to Yuan Shu and even put down so many things at hand to set a trap for Yuan Shu.
In fact, the conversation between Gao Shan and Zheng Yan was deliberately arranged for Li Ran's people to hear. This piece of evidence was delivered to Yuan Shu by Jiang Chen himself. His purpose was very simple, which was to make Yuan Shu owe Wang Shen a favor.
Jiang Chen seemed to know Yuan Shu very well. He knew that if Yuan Shu had found Wang Shen that morning and Wang Shen was only willing to make a statement on the condition of filming the movie, Yuan Shu would definitely not agree.
Instead, Wang Shen agreed directly without putting forward any conditions, so Yuan Shu regarded what happened later as her way of repaying his kindness.
Although Zheng Tian was curious, he also knew the principle of not looking, listening or asking. The person in power in the Jiang family was not as easy-going as his father.
The people he sent to Africa never found Shi Xiao. Jiang Chen seemed fine on the surface, but his methods were extremely cruel. Those who failed to complete the mission would have to pay the price.
Therefore, the chief was thrown into an African cannibal tribe to fend for himself.
Wang Shen delivered the contract to Shi's house, but Yuan Shu did not sign it. She thought that some things needed to be discussed in person, so she postponed the matter until three days later.
When Wang Shen heard that it would take another three days, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. This kind of thing changes rapidly and the other party may change his mind at any time. He dare not bet on himself!
Although Wang Shen really wanted to insist that she sign the contract today, he was afraid that Yuan Shu would become suspicious, so he had to agree reluctantly.
The news of Shi Xiao's return to China was no secret in the upper class society, except for the Shi family who were kept in the dark.
Shi Yi is busy designing new clothes every day. The new models of the first season are already on the market, so she doesn't have to worry about promotion. However, Lingxia Garment Factory also launched new models at the same time, obviously trying to compete with Yushu Buyi.
Shi Bin, on the other hand, works hard in a venture capital company every day. In this place where so many talented people gather, even taking a rest would be a waste of time.
He works overtime every day and has no time to relax even on weekends. Shi Bin is very concerned about Yuan Shu's affairs and helps her supervise the operation of the project funds she invested in on weekends. He has not been home for a month, and only occasionally when he receives fruits and snacks from Yuan Shu can he feel the warmth of family.
Not to mention Shi Lu staying at home, he just watches TV dramas every day to hone his acting skills. After Zhang Zhang came back, the two would occasionally go out to play, but Shi Lu stayed at home most of the time.
In a sense, the four members of the Shi family seemed to have cut off contact with the outside world, but Zhao Mian, the only one who knew the inside story, followed Shi Xiao's instructions and kept it confidential.
The temperature was cool in the afternoon with a gentle breeze. Li Ci leisurely opened a bottle of red wine in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of his duplex house by the river and lay on a massage chair to bask in the sun.
When he pressed the massage chair against Li Ci's back, he received a message on his mobile phone that Shi Xiao would return to China in three days.
The sound of the massage chair rang in his ears, disrupting his thoughts for a moment. He simply turned off the power of the massage chair and sat up.
Shi Xiao has been gone for more than two months, a period of time that is long enough to overshadow all other designers. Given the performance of the Shi family during this period, if it weren't for Yuan Shu, the Shi family would have gone bankrupt long ago.
Li Ci is as cunning as a fox, and he will certainly not let go of such an opportunity. When Shi Xiao was away, he did play a lot of tricks. Now that Shi Xiao is back, it's time for him to stop.
Back then, Li Ci was hunted by gangsters because of his sister and brother-in-law, and it was Shi Xiao who saved him. It can be said that Shi Xiao saved his life. This is also the main reason why Li Ci has been willing to be a business partner with Shi Xiao over the years and not let Shi Xiao become a tool to be used.
Li Ci thought about it and made a few more calls, but the other party said the same thing, "Put this matter aside for now and don't do anything else."
The Shi Group has too many businesses, covering almost all areas. If all businesses are to be shut down, three days may not be enough.
It seems that he has to create some trouble for Shi Xiao so that he won't have the energy to deal with these things first.
He arranged a dedicated driver, and three days later when Shi Xiao's plane landed, he went to pick him up in person. There had been no news from his savior for two months, so it was reasonable for him to go to pick him up in person.
Li Ran leaned against the corridor on the second floor, looked at him and asked, "Uncle, why are you downstairs alone?"
