"It's not bad. As long as you're fine, everything else is just a cloud."
Chen Ming held Qin Yanyu to comfort her for a while, and within five minutes, she fell asleep in Chen Ming's arms.
He quietly tucked the person into the quilt and covered her up, staring at Qin Yanyu quietly.
Chen Ming had no plans to do anything tonight.
After being kidnapped, Qin Yanyu was highly concentrated, panicked and frightened, with mixed emotions. She must have been extremely tired.
It wasn't until late at night that Chen Ming fell asleep holding Qin Yanyu in his arms.
In the mid-level villa, only the street lights glowed with warm yellow light in the dark night.
On the other hand, in the Chen family in the capital, the four of them were sitting together in the study, which was rare. The atmosphere was eerily quiet.
"Dad, the people sent out have just received news that a total of 219 people from the direct lineage of the Du family in Guangyu Province have been killed."
Chen Xingzhou said with a sullen face, feeling very bad.
"Now only the branches of the Du family are still intact, but they have never received any equity from the Du family, and the rest of the industry has nothing to do with them."
Having said this, Chen Xingzhou raised his head and looked at Chen Mao, "Now most of the Du family's jewelry has been acquired by the Xu family, and the rest is also in the hands of the Lin family. We were a little slow."
Du Zhonglin died in Jiangzhou.
By the time they got the news, the market was almost closing.
A piece of cake as big as the Du family's jewelry, the Chen family watched helplessly being divided up, and didn't get any of it.
"The Xu family and the Lin family?"
Chen Mao closed his eyes hard, feeling angry at Du Zhonglin for not being useful, and also hating the Xu family and the Lin family.
"That old man Xu Qingsong dares to fight with the king's lineage. Aren't you afraid of being pulled down by the king?"
Chen Gui didn't know much about the military region, but he was somewhat aware of the distribution of forces in the capital.
He couldn't help but ask: "The country wants to take over the Du family's property, but Xu Qingsong dares to rob it?"
Seeing that no one was paying attention, Chen Gui asked twice.
It's been too boring lately, and he wants to watch the excitement too much.
"Haha, Xu Qingsong is not an idiot. How could he deliberately openly oppose the Lin family? It must have been negotiated privately between the two families."
The person who answered him was Chen Xinghe, who was also nosy. After being kicked out of the military region, he spent most of his time wandering around among the rich second generation, and heard a lot of gossip.
"Lin Lanbing has long been dissatisfied with Du Zhonglin, otherwise he wouldn't hold on to his position as president."
"You see, after Du Zhonglin was dismissed, the first recommended candidate he submitted was from the Lin family."
"Tsk, the Lin family used to pride themselves on being upright and honest, and never competed with the aristocratic families in the capital for business."
"Now that the big tail is exposed, it's not just about focusing on the Du family's assets."
Who wouldn’t be envious of a world-famous jeweler?
You can get rich with just one bite, not to mention how many people will pay for the Du family jewelry.
Chen Xinghe curled his lips, extremely jealous.
"Hmph, it's just a game from my perspective. The aristocratic families in Beijing didn't want to get involved in the Du family's affairs a while ago, and both of them acted like cowards."
"It's fine now. They were all taken down by the Xu family and the Lin family. The other aristocratic families probably regretted it..."
Before he finished speaking, Chen Xingzhou slapped his brother on the head.
"Crazy? Why are you scolding yourself?"
Chen Xingzhou scolded in a low voice and glanced at Chen Mao.
The Chen family was also one of the families that initially pushed back and forth.
"Dad, what should we say now?"
Chen Xinghe coughed awkwardly and spoke cautiously.
"What else can you do? Just keep an eye on the Xu family."
"You call Chen Ming tomorrow and take care of him."
He suddenly looked at Chen Gui and said, shocking the other three people.
"Brother, you are making fun of me."
"It's not like you don't know how much that kid hates me."
Chen Gui curled his lips in disgust, "Besides, he is the 'disaster star'. I'm afraid I'll get bad luck if I say a few words to him."
"Have you forgotten the 'life and death game'?"
Chen Mao changed the topic, "Master Liao Kong said that the Chen family's disaster started from the disaster star. After the 'Life and Death Bureau' was launched, the solution lies at the source of water."
"Jiangzhou is close to the sea, and there is 'Miracle Doctor Chen' here. Now the Chen family is on the decline. If you want to break the situation, you have to start with Chen Ming."
He had been thinking over and over in the past few days and felt that Chen Ming must be hiding some important information. He could never be that simple.
"Get ready, I'm going to Jiangzhou in person soon."
After the words fell, Chen Xingzhou's pupils trembled in shock.
"No! I won't agree."
"Dad, the situation in Jiangzhou is not under our control. The people I sent out didn't send any news back."
"Go there rashly, maybe..."
Chen Xingzhou didn't say the next words, but the three of them understood what he meant.
"Where's Katsuragi?"
Chen Mao frowned, "Isn't he also here?"
It has been almost three months since Katsuragi was transferred to the Jiangzhou Military Region for training.
After Dai Jin's death, the Chen family intended to let Ge Cheng take Dai Jin's position to compete with Wang Jun'an and Fu Shi.
It's a pity that Wang Junan acted too quickly. Dai Jin's younger brothers died of unknown causes, and Wang Junan took care of the rest.
At this moment, Chen Mao suddenly thought of Katsuragi, who had not heard from him for a while.
"He has been unreachable since last month."
Chen Xingzhou said: "The last time we contacted him, he said that the military region was keeping a close eye on him."
Chen Mao temporarily agreed with this reason.
He got up and paced around the study, and the other three followed him nervously.
After more than ten minutes, Chen Mao thought for a long time and had to give up the idea of going to Jiangzhou in person.
However, he determined that the opportunity to crack the Chen family's "life and death situation" lay in Jiangzhou.
At present, the Chen family still stands at the top of the major families in China, but with his keen intuition, he has noticed that the Chen family is on the decline.
Losing control of Chucheng and Du family jewelry is a sign.
"Choose a group of people from the White Tiger Army to go to Jiangzhou to support."
"Also, is there any clue about the capsule left by Ding Kejin?"
Before Ding Kejin died, Chen Mao stole the formula from him for secret research.
As long as it succeeds, the strength of the White Tiger Legion will at least be doubled several times.
"not yet."
Chen Xingzhou said regretfully: "The soldiers who take the capsules will explode and die after three days. There is no breakthrough yet."
"Strange, how could this happen? The formula I got was obviously complete."
Chen Mao muttered to himself, frowning even more tightly.
Chen Gui lowered his head, fearing that his elder brother would ask him to call Chen Ming again.
He didn't want to come into contact with the disaster star.
Unlucky thing.
The four members of the Chen family stayed in the study until dawn.
The Qin family also stayed up all night.
Mrs. Qin got up in the morning with a splitting headache, and her face turned pale when she sat at the dinner table.
"Mom, please don't go out for a while. Just let me and Yuanshan go. You should go back to your room and rest."
Liu Xiujuan pretended to be worried and concerned.
The news of Du Zhonglin's tragic death kept the Qin family awake all night.
In addition, Qin Yanyu didn't reply to Liu Xiujuan's message, so Mrs. Qin decided to go and ask for details.
Otherwise, I would be flustered all day long and unable to touch the ground.
"Haha, if I don't go, can you two suppress Yanyu?"
