Rebirth of Xia Ze

Chapter 36 Undercurrent

Xia Ze received a call from the trust fund manager when school was over, informing him that Chi Yiheng had transferred 1000 million to his trust fund not long ago.

Xia Ze: "..."

The fund manager was not clear about the specific situation, but just informed Xia Ze according to the regulations.

After hanging up the phone, Xia Ze immediately dialed Chi Yiheng's number, wanting to ask what happened to the money.No one answered the phone, and there was always a "beep...beep...beep..." sound on the receiver.Xia Ze did not give up and dialed again, but still no one answered.He glanced at the time. It's not time for Chi Yiheng to leave work. Could it be that he is in a meeting?Thinking of this, he sent a text message to Chi Yiheng, giving Chi Yiheng time to return a call.

After the text message was sent, Xia Ze waited for a few minutes with hope, and finally put away the phone in a little disappointment.Ma Tianlei chased him from behind and shouted, "Xia Ze." Bai Xiaoqi came with him.

Although another day had passed, Bai Xiaoqi's face was still blue and purple, and he looked very funny.Looking at his distorted face, Xia Ze gloated and wanted to laugh.Fortunately, he still remembered that after his "falling out" with Bai Xiaoqi in the morning, they were supposed to be in a cold war now, since acting had to be done in full, Xia Ze quickly turned cold.

The two looked at each other, and their expressions were more serious than the other.Ma Tianlei looked funny, put his arm around one, and the three got together.

"Pretend, pretend for me!"

Xia Ze laughed, and while Bai Xiaoqi wasn't paying attention, he quickly passed Ma Tianlei and pinched Bai Xiaoqi's face, and Bai Xiaoqi's cry immediately attracted the attention of the people around him.

"Xia Ze, you are a bastard!" Bai Xiaoqi mumbled with a swollen face.

Xia Ze laughed.It's strange to say that in Xia Ze's last life, his relationship with Bai Xiaoqi was only mediocre, and the two had always maintained a state of friends, often getting together to mess around, but they never had a heart-to-heart relationship.But at some point in this life, the relationship between him and Bai Xiaoqi seemed to be different.It's no longer the kind of perfunctory nonsense, but a feeling of real friends like him and Ma Tianlei.

The three of them fought with each other, and in Zhou Zichang's eyes, Xia Ze and Bai Xiaoqi had a cold war. Ma Tianlei made peace, and Xia Ze and Bai Xiaoqi got back together again.Zhou Zichang didn't doubt that there was him, Xia Ze's temperament was like this, he was heartless and didn't hold grudges very much, except for him.It has been more than a month, Xia Ze still loves to ignore him, he can't figure out where he offended Xia Ze?Zhou Zichang couldn't help but be thankful that his father and sister-in-law were not paying attention to him recently, otherwise they must have seen that he and Xia Ze were estranged early in the morning, and it was time to educate him again.

At home in the evening, Zhou Zichang didn't hide anything, and quickly told his father about the fight between Bai Xiaoqi and Xia Ze, the emphasis was on what Bai Xiaoqi said.

Zhou Zhen looked at him incredulously, "Bastard, are you sure?"

Zhou Zichang didn't know and wasn't sure, but he felt that Bai Xiaoqi must have heard some rumors if he dared to say this, and he didn't seem to be talking nonsense.

Zhou Zhen frowned and thought for a while, and asked Zhou Zichang to go out first, then he turned around and called Zhou Hanqing.

"Brother?" Zhou Hanqing was very surprised, "Did something happen at home?"

"I'm fine at home." Zhou Zhen said bluntly, "Little sister, is it convenient for you to talk now?"

When Zhou Zhen said this, Zhou Hanqing understood that some words were inconvenient for people around to hear. She walked a few steps quietly, and after making sure that there was no one around, she whispered: "It's all right now."

Zhou Zhen didn't talk nonsense, he just repeated what Zhou Zichang said, and then asked, "Little sister, have you heard similar rumors?"

Zhou Hanqing didn't speak for a moment. Women are always sensitive to these things. She has been with Xia Zhicheng these years, and it's not like she didn't feel that Xia Zhicheng seemed to be someone outside.It's just that Xia Zhicheng is very busy with work and rarely stays out overnight. She can't find anything suspicious in terms of time, so she comforts herself that she is suspicious.But what Zhou Zhen said made her doubt again.

Zhou Hanqing's silence made Zhou Zhen understand something. He thought for a while and said, "Leave this matter alone, little girl, and let me handle it."

"Okay, sorry for the trouble, brother."

Zhou Hanqing hung up the phone, calmed down, and it was the gentle and generous mayor's wife again.She is not at home now, but went back to the old house with Xia Zhicheng.Grandma Xia is sick, and they all have to come back to fulfill their filial piety.She could feel that something happened to the old house, but no one told her, and she could only pretend that she didn't know anything.

The brothers and sisters of the Xia family have been by Grandma Xia's side since they came back. She couldn't get along with the elder sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law, so they could only guard the next room with worried expressions.Zhou Hanqing answered the phone and walked back, only to see the elder sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law sitting together and talking about something.As soon as she appeared, the two stopped talking immediately, and the room fell silent.

Zhou Hanqing smiled at the two of them as if nothing had happened, but she was very angry in her heart. It has been 16 years since she married Xia Zhicheng, and she still feels unable to integrate into the Xia family.Not only was Xia Zhicheng hiding something from her, it seemed that everyone in the Xia family was hiding something from her.

A thought flashed through Zhou Hanqing's mind, and Zhou Hanqing couldn't help asking a question that she should know but no one had ever asked her. "Sister-in-law, how did the old lady fall ill?"

Xia Zhifei's wife Liu Jia was called sister-in-law by her.Liu Jia is a tall, overweight middle-aged woman, the same age as Xia Zhifei.The two were classmates in high school back then, and later went to the frontier together to support construction, and gradually walked together.Unlike Xia Zhifei's character, which is honest and cowardly, Liu Jia's character is fiery and sharp, and she doesn't like Grandma Xia very much.

After hearing Zhou Hanqing's words, Liu Jia smiled perfunctorily, "After all, the old lady is old, so she will inevitably have headaches."

Of course Zhou Hanqing was not satisfied with this answer, she turned her gaze to the middle-aged beautiful woman sitting beside her, "Does the second sister-in-law know?"

The second sister-in-law of the Xia family is probably the one that Grandma Xia likes the most among the three daughter-in-laws. Unlike Liu Jia and Zhou Hanqing who were born in a small family, the second sister-in-law of the Xia family, Kang Wanyue, was born in the Kang family in Haicheng. She is a typical lady of the family. He has always spoken in a soft voice, and his temperament is very gentle and quiet.

Kang Wanyue seemed to know something, Zhou Hanqing's rare strength made her look at Liu Jia in embarrassment, and said vaguely: "Probably it has something to do with those calligraphy and paintings of Ozawa."

Zhou Hanqing's expression changed slightly, and his thoughts turned instantly. Xia Ze's calligraphy and painting?What calligraphy and painting by Xia Ze?Why doesn't she know?Xia Zhicheng never mentioned it to her, was he just guarding against her?

Her reaction made Liu Jia see something, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

That night, when Xia Ze arrived home, Xia Kai was the only one at home, and his father and Zhou Hanqing were not there.

Xia Kai heard the sound of someone coming back, and rushed out excitedly, but when he saw that it was Xia Ze, he immediately turned back to the room with a grimace.Xia Ze didn't even bother to look at Xia Kai's reaction, his mind was now occupied by the unexpected news that Xia Zhicheng was not at home.Since he got a bug from Old K yesterday, which is said to be the most advanced bug on the black market, all he has been thinking about is how to install it in his father's study.He thought it would take a long time to wait for a suitable opportunity, but he didn't expect his father to be away on the first day.

Xia Ze quickly found out what Old K had given him from his bag. He went through the main points of use explained by Old K in his mind, and after making sure he had memorized it, he carefully pushed open the door of the study.

When Xia Zhicheng was at home, he didn't like people entering his study room very much, and the whole Xia family also consciously stayed away from the study room, so Zhou Hanqing would occasionally send him a late-night snack. Pitiful.He had already figured out where to put his things before he came, and he went straight to the destination - Xia Zhicheng's desk after he came in.Xia Ze carefully lay down on the ground and stuck the bug under the desk, and tested to make sure that the bug was turned on, and the earphones on his body could receive it without any problem.When he got up and was about to leave, he glanced at an open document on the desk.

"About the First Draft of Qualification Judgment Result of Each Company's Qualification Judgment on the First- and Second-Level Joint Development Tendering of Land in District B3 in the West of the City" Xia Ze remembered that Chi Yiheng had mentioned his recent piece of land in the west of the busy city last time.At this time in the previous life, Xia Ze still had opinions on the Chi family and didn't pay much attention to the news of the Chi family, but he vaguely remembered that the Chi family seemed to lose in a tender, could it be this time?

Xia Ze glanced at the door nervously, took a deep breath, carefully opened the documents on the table, and looked at ten lines at a glance.He didn't understand a lot of the content above, but he still saw the company names of Chi's and Zhou's at a glance.Xia Ze quickly turned to the last page, and unexpectedly found out that the Chi family lost to the Zhou family in the qualification scoring.

This is impossible!

Even if Xia Ze doesn't understand anything, he still feels that this result is not right.The Chi family's company is much stronger than the Zhou family's in terms of scale and personnel strength, how could it lose to the Zhou family?Subconsciously, Xia Ze wanted to inform Chi Yiheng of the news, but his eyes lit up when he took out his phone.It doesn't matter if he can't understand these contents, as long as his cousin can understand.A thought flashed through, and Xia Ze quickly took pictures of the document page by page.

There was the sound of a car in the courtyard, and Xia Zhicheng and Zhou Hanqing came back.

Xia Ze quickly took the last few photos, carefully closed the file, made sure that the location of the file was the same as before, and quickly pulled the study door and ran back to his room.The moment the door closed, Xia Zhicheng and Zhou Hanqing's voices could be heard in the corridor.Xia Ze leaned against the door, clutching his heart tightly, feeling his heart beating wildly.He had never been so nervous before, he was even more nervous than the first time he was with his cousin in his previous life.

After 1 minute, the corridor became quiet again.Xia Ze breathed a sigh of relief, locked the door tightly, turned on the computer, and carefully sorted out the materials that were photographed before in order.It was half an hour after he finished.Xia Ze was about to contact Chi Yiheng when a sound came from the earphones that had been placed on the table.It seems that the study door was pushed open and someone entered the study.After a while, Zhou Hanqing's voice sounded, "Zhicheng, you have to go back to the old house tomorrow, you should rest early."

In the study, Zhou Hanqing looked at Xia Zhicheng with concern.With something on his mind, Xia Zhicheng absently agreed.

Seeing his tired face, Zhou Hanqing walked up to Xia Zhicheng's back gently, and gently massaged his head.Xia Zhicheng patted Zhou Hanqing's hand, and said something casually, "You told your elder brother that the land in the west of the city is almost settled, let him have some snacks, and don't let me down."

A look of joy flashed in Zhou Hanqing's eyes, and the movements of his hands became more and more ironic.Seeing that Xia Zhicheng closed his eyes comfortably, Zhou Hanqing pretended to be nonchalant and said: "The Qi family sent people here today, saying that Ozawa was dragged down by their children and sent a few gifts. I think they are all men. The things the child likes are not too expensive to accept, and they will be sent to Ozawa later."

"The Qi family? What's going on?" Xia Zhicheng cheered up.

Zhou Hanqing tactfully told the story of Bai Xiaoqi's family, and sighed: "If you want me to say, what Bai Hua has done is too much. No matter how good the children outside are, how can they compare to those who grew up at home? That child Xiaoqi You have seen it before. He is very obedient and sensible. I heard that his face was swollen after being beaten this time. He dared to be so powerful before he recognized it. If he really recognized it and returned to the Bai family, there would be a way for that child Xiaoqi to survive. ?"

Zhou Hanqing paid attention to the changes in Xia Zhicheng's expression while talking.She could see clearly. Xia Zhicheng's eyelids moved when he heard the children outside, and Zhou Hanqing's heart sank to the bottom.She forced a smile, and said softly: "In fact, this matter has nothing to do with us, it's just that Xiao Ze got punched in the face when he was implicated. I'll go and see Xiao Ze later, Zhicheng, don't worry too much. "

Xia Zhicheng frowned when he heard that Xia Ze was injured, but he still ordered Zhou Hanqing to go and see Xia Ze first, and if there was nothing belonging to the Qi family, he would bring them to Xia Ze together.

The sound in the earphone disappeared with Zhou Hanqing's departure.Xia Ze quickly put away the earphones and opened the game page on the computer.

After a while, there was a knock on the door.Xia Ze opened the door with an impatient expression on his face.

Zhou Hanqing acted as if she didn't see Xia Ze's expression, she put all the things sent by the Qi family in the room, and while talking about the Qi family's coming, she asked with concern: "Xiao Ze's face Is it still hurting?"

Xia Ze hummed casually, and kept looking in the direction of the computer.

Zhou Hanqing noticed Xia Ze's movements and laughed indulgently. "Xiao Ze, you play, mother won't bother you anymore. By the way..." Zhou Hanqing said casually before going out: "Xiao Ze, are you playing well with Bai Xiaoqi?"

Xia Ze was still wondering what Zhou Hanqing meant by asking this sentence, Zhou Hanqing had already sighed: "That child is also pitiful, he was bullied by his brother who appeared out of nowhere."

Xia Ze frowned, Zhou Hanqing watched Xia Ze's expression with satisfaction, and said a few more words before leaving with concern on his face.Now Xia Ze understood what Zhou Hanqing meant.It seems that Zhou Zichang told Zhou Hanqing Bai Xiaoqi's words, and Zhou Hanqing obviously believed it, and purposely created hatred for the unknown illegitimate child in front of him.

Xia Ze had to admit that Zhou Hanqing was very powerful, and he began to wonder what Zhou Hanqing would do after knowing Han Ling's existence.Speaking of which, Zhou Hanqing was the one most motivated to kill Han Ling except him, but Xia Ze always felt that for Zhou Hanqing, killing someone was the least advisable, unless Han Ling did something that threatened her status?What could it be?

Xia Ze thought wildly for a long time, only to realize that it was already eleven o'clock in the evening when he came back to his senses.He suddenly realized that his cousin hadn't returned his phone calls, not even the daily inspection homework.

Is something wrong?

Xia Ze frowned and called Chi Yiheng again, but no one answered.He hesitated to enter the phone number of the Chi family's mansion, but he checked the time and forgot.It's too late, my uncle should be asleep, it would be bad if I wake him up.Cousin is probably too busy, right?Although Xia Ze thought so, he was still disappointed.He sent the documents he had sorted out to Chi Yiheng's mailbox.After confirming that there was no response from the email, he turned off the computer in frustration and prepared to take a shower and go to sleep.

Until he was lying on the bed, Xia Ze didn't wait for Chi Yiheng's call back.He turned over irritably, buried his head in the quilt, and thought over and over again what was wrong with his cousin?Just when he was most disappointed, the phone rang suddenly.He turned over excitedly and picked up his phone. The name displayed on the screen was Ma Tianlei, not Chi Yiheng.

"Hello?" Xia Ze's voice was weak.

"Xia Ze go to QQ soon, I'll send you a link." Ma Tianlei said eagerly.

"what?"

"You'll know when you see it."

Xia Ze hung up Q with his phone curiously, and Ma Tianlei quickly sent a link.While clicking on the link, he took a sip from the water glass next to the bed.

"puff!"

The next moment, Xia Ze sprayed all the water on the phone.

What Ma Tianlei sent was a surveillance video, Shen Jiashi and Xia Zhijie were hugging and kissing passionately in the corridor where it was unclear.At the bottom of the video, there is a provocative headline: The rich and powerful family is hiding filth, and the talented painter is caught in an unethical love!

There is only one thought in Xia Ze's mind, is this true?
