The box table was fully stocked with drinks and refreshments. In addition to these, there were also knives, forks and steaks.
Ye Ning felt complicated.
Of course she knew that the Red Sea would not provide food such as steak.
And just as Mu Wenhao signaled, these dishes were served immediately, obviously prepared in advance.
Mu Wenhao saw Ye Ning staring at the champagne and steak on the table, and thought she didn't know what they were, so he took the initiative to explain: "For Western food, you don't need chopsticks and use a knife and fork. I'll teach you."
After saying that, he took the initiative to pick up the knife and fork and showed it.
As a person who was reborn from the future, how could Ye Ning not recognize steak?
However, she did not stop Mu Wenhao, but allowed him to "perform" on his own.
What shocked Ye Ning the most was that after Mu Wenhao cut the steak, he took the initiative to take away her untouched portion.
Mu Wenhao smiled and said to her: "Try it, it tastes pretty good."
After Ye Ning hesitated for a few seconds, he tasted a piece of steak under Mu Wenhao's gaze.
The juice in your mouth and the unique aroma of beef are indeed very good.
Next, Mu Wenhao took the initiative to pour champagne.
"Although today is already the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, it is also the first meal of the new year that we eat together. Let's have a drink."
Goosebumps appeared on Ye Ning's arms.
Doesn't he feel that what he said is inappropriate?
"I'm not much of a drinker."
"This champagne has a very low alcohol content and is no different from juice." Mu Wenhao didn't care about Ye Ning's refusal, but explained patiently.
His kind attitude made Ye Ning at a loss.
Mu Wenhao then said a toast, "To make our cooperation more pleasant in the future."
Ye Ning had to drink it even if she didn't want to.
The two cups collided together, making a crisp sound.
Even though Ye Ning didn't understand wine, he could still drink it. The wine in the cup was rich in aroma and expensive.
On the stage, the singing was beautiful, the light and shadow on the dance floor intertwined, and the atmosphere was relaxed and joyful.
Mu Wenhao was in a very good mood, and his eyes stayed on Ye Ning's face most of the time.
The constantly changing lights above her head left a faint halo on her face, making her look even more beautiful and mysterious.
Many women had sat here before, but none of them could make him feel such an inexplicable and unexplainable feeling.
It feels good, really good.
Although Ye Ning did not raise her head, she could clearly feel Mu Wenhao staring at her intently.
This calculating gaze made her feel on pins and needles. She always felt like a piece of meat on the chopping board, with absolutely no room to resist or stand up...
Beijing.
"Isn't Scorpion back yet?"
It was already early in the morning, but the lights were brightly lit inside and outside the yard.
Zheng Quanqiang kept pacing, the irritability on his face becoming more and more obvious.
There were many subordinates standing around, including Gu Feng.
No one answered Zheng Quanqiang's question.
"Chu Mu, when did you find out that Xie Zi was not there?"
Zheng Quanqiang's deep voice seemed to drip out of water.
He had a bad premonition that no matter whether Liu Xiezi succeeded in what he wanted to do or not, there was no way he would not come back for so long.
Gu Feng replied: "After I discussed the matter with the boss, I found that he was not in the room."
Zheng Quanqiang had no doubts about this answer, because Gu Feng's room was right next to Liu Xiezi's room, so it was reasonable to see no one there when he passed by.
But this also proves that Liu Xiezi left home very early.
"Boss, do you want me to go to the police station and inquire?" Gu Feng took the initiative to ask for instructions.
They all knew that the police were searching for Liu Xiezi, so it was normal for Gu Feng to pretend to be worried about whether Liu Xiezi had been arrested.
Zheng Quanqiang's eyes flickered, "Okay, take two brothers with you and be careful."
Gu Feng nodded and casually motioned to the two people next to him to walk out with him.
As Gu Feng left, the living room once again fell into deathly silence.
"Shui Sheng, come in with me."
Zheng Quanqiang glanced at the honest-looking man standing in the corner and strode towards the study.
"Shui Sheng, follow Chu Mu immediately to see if there is anything suspicious about him. Remember not to let Chu Mu notice."
Zheng Quan ordered Wang Shuisheng in a low voice.
Wang Shuisheng has followed him from the first day he came out to explore. Over the years, he has been fighting for him through life and death, and he has unconditional trust in Wang Shuisheng.
However, although Wang Shuisheng was brave and cruel, he was not very bright and could not be entrusted with important tasks.
So he trained Wang Shuisheng to be his own sword, specializing in dealing with those who disobey.
"Boss, are you doubting Chu Mu?"
The purpose of Zheng Quanqiang's order was very obvious, Wang Shuisheng asked innocently.
"I have a hunch that something might have happened to Xie Zi. He told me before that we have a traitor here. I'm afraid that Xie Zi didn't handle the matter well and has alerted the traitor."
Zheng Quanqiang didn't care about Liu Xiezi's life or death, but if Liu Xiezi was really dead, it would prove that what he said about the traitor was indeed true.
At this critical juncture, the only person Zheng Quanqiang can use is Chu Mu, so he can temporarily give up the investigation of anyone else, as long as he must confirm Chu Mu's identity.
"Then do you need me to kill Chu Mu directly?" Wang Shuisheng's idea is very simple. Since the boss is suspicious, he should die.
Zheng Quanqiang did not explain to Wang Shuisheng, but immediately denied it, "No, don't take any action without my order. Now follow Chu Mu to determine whether he is a traitor."
Although Wang Shuisheng could not understand Zheng Quanqiang's thoughts, he still agreed.
"Go." Zheng Quanqiang urged.
After Wang Shuisheng left, his expression still did not soften, but he murmured in an almost cruel voice: "Chu Mu, Chu Mu, you must not let me down."
Gu Feng moved quickly and arrived at the door of the police station in only ten minutes.
When the two men following him saw the door of the police station, they felt guilty and did not dare to approach it.
They said they were here to inquire about Liu Xiezi, but they couldn't go to the police inside and ask directly, right?
"Chu Mu, what should we do next?"
Chu Mu is the popular person next to the boss, so he is naturally their leader.
Gu Feng looked at the two of them calmly, "You two have a fight."
Both of them looked confused.
Before they could react, Gu Feng had already punched the two of them on the bridge of their noses.
They both had nosebleeds almost at the same time.
Gu Feng's sudden attack made both men look horrified.
But before they could speak, Gu Feng's cold command sounded again.
"Now you can fight. Remember, the harder you fight, the better."
