When Qu Mo drove Shen Jia Nian back to Rose Manor, Lu Yanzhi had already left.
He opened the back seat door, his expression slightly condensed, with a hint of guilt. He didn't complete the task assigned by his boss, so he certainly wasn't in a relaxed mood.
Shen Jia Nian fell into the back seat, with his messy long hair covering half of his face. The light-colored clothes on his body were heavily stained, and he was much more embarrassed than when he went out.
When Qu Mo was at a loss, the door of the main hall was opened from the inside, and Zhou Rongzhen followed Fu Jichen out.
Shen Jia Nian, who fell unconscious in the car, was taken out. Just like last time, Fu Jichen held him in his arms. He took the elevator back to the guest bedroom on the third floor where she had been staying these past few days and put him on the bed.
Qu Mo did not dare to slack off and followed closely, stopping outside the door.
Fu Jichen frowned, his displeasure fully revealed, and said to Zhou Rongzhen: "Call and ask where Xiao Jingshan is. I think she has a fever again."
Shen Jia Nian blushed abnormally, there was blood on his forehead and the corners of his mouth, and the loose white sweater inside was torn off. He never expected that a trip home would lead to such a mess.
Qu Mo told him on the phone that Shen Jia Nian's condition was not good. He immediately asked Zhou Rongzhen to call Xiao Jingshan. This time, the time was a little urgent, and Xiao Jingshan failed to arrive before Shen Jia Nian got home.
Zhou Rongzhen responded and quickly dialed the phone to urge someone to come over quickly.
Fu Jichen left the room, glanced at Qu Mo, who was standing straight in the corridor outside the door, looking down, and asked him: "What's going on? Didn't I ask you to follow her?"
Qu Mo was cross-examined and felt even more guilty, but he was not vague and explained the facts in detail.
"After I sent Miss Shen to the Yin family villa, I kept waiting outside according to what you said. I didn't see anyone after dark. When I asked the security guard, I found out that there are two doors in the community for residents to enter and exit. Miss Shen should be from The east side door is out." Qu Mo didn't know why the boss concluded that Miss Shen would definitely come out after returning. He just followed the instructions, "When I drove around to the east gate, a group of gangsters dragged Miss Shen to a hidden place..."
Having said this, he paused for a moment and boldly raised his eyes to observe Fu Jichen's expression. His face was calm.
"I took action to deal with that group of gangsters. They are all from the training camp and must have committed many crimes. I wanted to take them to the police station, but when I saw Miss Shen fainted on the ground, I had to take care of her first." Qu Mo's head dropped. Lower, “That’s just the way it is.”
After a long while, Fu Jichen didn't wait for a response.
Qu Mo's throat rolled and he swallowed a gulp of air. He had neglected his duty, failed to protect Miss Shen, and betrayed his boss's trust. This was the simplest mission he had ever received, but he blew it.
Feeling anxious, Qu Mo added in a low voice: "I arrived in time and Miss Shen was not violated."
Fu Jichen raised his eyes and finally gave him a look: "Check whether those people were instigated by others or for other reasons. Don't let them go."
"yes."
Qu Mo sighed, turned and left, secretly warning himself not to make any mistakes again.

There were only father and daughter Yin Chengde and Yin Shuyao on the Yin family's dining table. The Japanese lampshade above their heads cast a silvery light, illuminating the table full of delicacies.
Hu Yuzhi was almost beaten, so after venting her anger, she went back to her room and lay down, not wanting to face Yin Chengde again.
There was only a slight sound of clinking bowls and chopsticks in the restaurant. Yin Chengde picked up two dishes with chopsticks. The heavy sadness in his heart climbed onto his brows. He frowned and took a sip of wine.
Yin Shuyao raised her eyes and looked over. Her father was pinching his eyebrows. There were deep wrinkles there. She stopped her chopsticks, placed them on the white ceramic chopstick holders, and comforted her softly: "Dad, don't be angry with mom, she is also thinking about this family. We did mention Mr. Qin's situation to Sister Jia Nian, where might it be?" You didn't express yourself clearly, which led to her misunderstanding, which led to the current situation. Before you came back, we had a good understanding of Jianian. She was the one who repeatedly contradicted Mom, and Mom got angry and attacked her."
In front of her family, Yin Shuyao has always been well-behaved and sensible, and does not make people worry about her studies. She entered her own company to gain experience before graduating from college. Her bosses who manage her praise her as a rare and good helper. Yin Chengde loves his only daughter very much and hopes that she can take over the company in the future.
In the past, no matter how big or small it was, whenever Yin Chengde got angry, her persuasion would always work. This time, things were unusual, and her persuasion didn't have much effect. Yin Chengde still said with a straight face: "You try to make more calls." Call Xiaonian, apologize to her, and try to persuade her to come back. She has no other relatives in the world, so where can she settle down without our family. Although you are my sister, she just lost her parents not long ago, so you should be more tolerant and take care of her. "
Yin Shuyao did not refute, but superficially agreed: "I know, and I will advise her well."
She took a few bites, excused herself to call Shen Jianian, left the restaurant and went to the room upstairs.
Avoiding her father's gaze, Yin Shuyao curled up into a cold smile and persuaded Shen Jiannian to come back? She wished that person would disappear from her world forever.
No, this wish has already come true.
Yin Shuyao raised her wrist and looked at her watch, calculating how many hours had passed since Shen Jianian left home. After the answer came to her mind, the smile on her lips couldn't help but widen.
After so long, there is no doubt that Li Wu and his group will succeed.
Yin Shuyao hummed a light song and held up her mobile phone to call Li Wu on the balcony.
Li Wu and his brothers were employees hired by the Yin family and were mainly responsible for manual labor such as transporting and unloading goods. Those people were not very clean and were caught reselling building materials. They still refused to repent after being warned several times. This angered Yin Chengde, so he fired those people and never hired them.
When she first entered the company as an intern, Yin Shuyao was said to have come in through the back door in order not to tell the truth. She started from the bottom and often dealt with those workers. It was not surprising that she would know Li Wu.
After Li Wu was fired, he took his men to Nanshui Pedestrian Street and continued to do manual labor to make a living.
Half a month ago, Yin Shuyao went there to inspect the work on behalf of her boss and called Shen Jianian. It was her father who asked her to pay more attention to Shen Jianian, who was in a depressed mood, and take her out to relax when she had time to relieve her depression, so as to prevent her from always being bored at home and thinking wildly, which would be bad for her health. In front of her father, she had to do a good job in saving face and play the role of a considerate and caring sister.
It was also that time that she met Li Wu who was smoking and playing cards on the street and saw his intentions towards Shen Jianian.
Li Wu is an easy person to take advantage of. He will do things for you even if you give him a small favor or a small profit, not to mention such a nice job. He will be happy even if no money is given.
There is no moonlight tonight, the night is as dark as ink, the wind is rustling on the balcony, and it is very cold. Yin Shuyao's call to Li Wu went unanswered.
She frowned at the phone screen and hung up without much patience.
What is Li Wu doing? What time is it? It’s not over yet. Don’t kill anyone...
Yin Shuyao was startled by her imagination. If someone died and alerted the police, wouldn't she be implicated? The phone call she made to Li Wu was evidence.
It was the first time for Yin Shuyao to do such a thing, and it was impossible not to be afraid. She pursed her lips and tried to make a second call.
This time the ringing rang for a long time, and when it was about to hang up automatically, the call finally came through, but it wasn't Li Wu's voice.
"Miss Yin?"
"Who are you?" Yin Shuyao was very vigilant. When she heard the unfamiliar voice, her heart suddenly jumped up and she held her breath.
"I'm Brother Wu's brother. He went to the toilet."
Yin Shuyao's heart fell back to where it was before, and she breathed a sigh of relief: "You guys..."
Before she could express her question, the phone was snatched away by another person. The next second, Li Wu's cursing voice came: "Yin Shuyao, you stinky bitch deliberately teased me, do you want to die?"
