Chapter 360 Making things difficult
Not long after, Chi Moqing returned to the restaurant, chatting and laughing as if nothing had happened. But Yan Zuozuo felt uneasy and asked casually, "Honey, was that a call from the company?"
Chi Moqing served her a bowl of soup: "Well, I have some business at the company, so I'll go back this afternoon."
Yan Zuozuo glanced at him: "Then I'll go with you?"
Chi Moqing placed the bowl in front of her: "Just wait for me at home. I'll go for a walk with you when I get back."
Yan Zuozuo's heart tightened again, but she still smiled and nodded, "Okay." She lowered her eyes, took a sip of soup, and her eyes darted around.
In the afternoon, not long after Chi Moqing left, Yan Zuozuo followed him out. As soon as she got out of the car, she saw several people in uniform standing at the entrance. After Chi Moqing got out, she followed them inside. She sneaked in and went straight to the top floor. The secretary seemed to be out, so she sat outside waiting. If anything happened to Chi Moqing, she would know immediately.
Just as Yan Zuozuo was feeling uneasy, her secretary came in. Upon seeing Yan Zuozuo, she quickly and respectfully went over to her. "Madam President, what brings you here? The President is inside and may not be able to come out for the time being."
"No need to tell him, I'll just wait for him here. You go about your business." Yan Zuozuo smiled.
The secretary didn't say much and turned to pour her some water. Yan Zuozuo sat alone outside, reading a magazine. The cool air from the air conditioner made her feel drowsy.
Just then, the elevator doors opened again, followed by the crisp, sharp sound of high heels. Yan Zuozuo looked up and saw that it was truly a case of bad luck; she had unexpectedly run into He Xinrui here.
Knowing that Park Sun-hee is He Xinrui is one thing, but actually facing her face is another. It's not that she's a stranger, but it just feels strange.
He Xinrui frowned when she saw that Yan Zuozuo didn't seem happy either. "What are you doing here?"
Yan Zuozuo raised an eyebrow: "This is my husband's company, why can't I be here? But Miss He, you have no connection with the Chi family, what are you doing here?"
"Your husband's company?" He Xinrui sneered. "I'm afraid it won't be for long."
"Whether it's right or wrong isn't up to Miss He, at least not right now." Yan Zuozuo smiled sarcastically. "I think Miss He isn't welcome here. Please make yourself at home."
He Xinrui's expression changed: "You dare to chase me away?"
“On my husband’s turf, of course I can kick out anyone I don’t like. Miss He, you don’t want me to call security, do you?” Her grudge against He Xinrui ran deep, and even though they hadn’t seen each other for a long time, she didn’t need to be polite to her.
He Xinrui gritted her teeth in anger. Just as she was about to speak, she saw the office door open and a fat, bald man walked out. When he saw He Xinrui there, his eyes lit up, and the fat on his face covered his eyes.
However, with Yan Zuozuo present, he could only suppress his joy and walked up to He Xinrui with an unfriendly expression. "Who is this? We are interrogating President Chi inside. Who allowed these unauthorized people to come in?"
This man is Huang Shikun, the assistant chairman of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, who is part of the investigation team for the Chi family case.
The secretary, seeing that the other party was not someone to be trifled with, quickly came over, "Assistant Huang, this is our president's wife..."
"I don't care who it is, this is a restricted area for inspection. All irrelevant people, leave!" Huang Shikun snorted coldly, clearly showing no respect for Chi Moqing.
The secretary frowned. The Chi family hadn't reached a decision yet, and Yan Zuozuo was still their president's wife. This was going too far. He was very dissatisfied with Huang Shikun. Although he hadn't been working for Chi Moqing for long, he greatly admired him. A man who was shrewd and capable at work, and morally upright in his personal life, was exceptionally talented and devoted—such men were rare. Chi Moqing was truly outstanding in every way; he was his idol. He absolutely couldn't bring himself to get rid of the president's wife.
Just now in the office.
The head of this review team was Li Minghua, one of the three vice chairmen of the China Securities Regulatory Commission. He poured a pot of tea and placed it in front of everyone, saying, "We are also acting under orders this time, and we will have to trouble President Chi a lot during this period."
Before Chi Moqing could speak, Huang Shikun snorted coldly, "Cooperating with our investigation is what the relevant departments should do. Chairman Li, why be so polite?" He took a sip of tea, looked at Chi Moqing, and said unhurriedly, "During this period, President Chi, please keep your phone on and be available whenever we call."
Chi Moqing didn't speak, but simply took a sip of tea.
Seeing his attitude, Huang Shikun's face darkened. "President Chi, what kind of attitude is this? It seems you are very dissatisfied with our review this time?"
Upon hearing this, a sharp glint flashed in Chi Moqing's eyes. However, before he could speak, Li Minghua said, "Assistant Huang, you're overthinking it. The matter concerning the Chi family is still unresolved. Everyone needs to cooperate and understand each other."
Speaking of Huang Shikun, he originally had no issues with Chi Moqing. However, not long ago, he met He Xinrui at a banquet, and the two quickly became involved. He Xinrui was no pushover either, and Huang Shikun was even more greedy. The two conspired to take advantage of the situation and try to get their hands on the Chi family business.
No matter how big the Chi family is, as long as they know how to manipulate the censorship process, even the largest company will still run into problems. For their enormous profits, Huang Shikun naturally makes trouble for Chi Moqing at every turn.
It can only be said that he was blind to the true power of a great man, and like a newborn calf unafraid of a tiger, he probably still doesn't know who he has offended. But Li Minghua was very clear about Chi Moqing's abilities and the power behind the Chi family, which made him find it amusing.
"Is that so?" Huang Shikun sneered. "I thought President Chi had something he didn't want us to see, or that our arrival was getting in the way."
“I welcome a normal investigation,” Chi Moqing replied calmly. “However, before the matter is thoroughly investigated, if anyone dares to slander the Chi family, I will not take it lying down.”
Huang Shikun was stunned, then slammed his hand on the table. "Are you threatening me?"
Chi Moqing sneered and ignored him. Li Minghua quickly spoke up, "Assistant Huang, please watch your words. As President Chi said, the matter of the Chi Group is still unresolved, and any suggestive language you use is not allowed."
"!" Huang Shikun's face darkened, clearly displeased. He stood up and said, "You guys talk first, I'm going to the restroom."
Chi Moqing watched him leave, narrowing his eyes. He had already investigated this man thoroughly upon his arrival in S City, knowing about his relationship with He Xinrui, and was likely targeting him specifically. He was never a petty person, but he disliked this man intensely.
However, not long after Huang Shikun left, he heard a commotion outside. His face darkened, and he strode out. As he opened the office door, he heard Huang Shikun roar, "What are you all standing there for? Get her out of here!"
“Assistant Huang, this is our president’s wife. She’s just waiting here for our president to come out. She won’t bother you.” The secretary argued firmly.
"I said it's affecting things, so it's affecting things! Take her away!" Huang Shikun glared angrily at his secretary. "You're obstructing me from performing my official duties!"
The secretary pursed her lips. Yan Zuozuo also disliked the fat man in front of her, but she didn't want to make things difficult for the secretary. Just as she was about to say she was leaving, she heard an angry voice behind her, "Assistant Huang, what does this mean?" As he spoke, he pulled Yan Zuozuo into his arms tightly and looked sharply at Huang Shikun.
Upon meeting Chi Moqing's gaze, Huang Shikun felt a chill run down his spine. Rumors circulated about Chi Moqing's powerful aura and remarkable abilities, and seeing him today, Huang Shikun realized that his imperial presence was indeed somewhat frightening, immediately diminishing his arrogance by more than half.
"What are you all standing there for? Apologize to Madam Chi now!" Li Minghua also came out at this moment, and seeing that Huang Shiku had caused trouble, he shouted sternly.
"I'm sorry." Huang Shikun started to speak subconsciously, but then realized something was wrong. He was here to investigate Chi Moqing, so why should he apologize to his wife? "President Chi, you know the investigation regulations. How can unauthorized personnel come and go as they please?"
Chi Moqing snorted coldly and turned to look at He Xinrui. "Who let you up here without my permission?" He Xinrui was speechless for a moment, then heard him say, "Since this is an important place, Assistant Huang, don't bring any unauthorized people in next time!"
Huang Shikun's heart skipped a beat. Did Chi Moqing know about his relationship with He Xinrui?
Chi Moqing ignored him and spoke gently to Yan Zuozuo, "Wife, why didn't you say you were coming? Are you thirsty? What would you like to drink?"
Yan Zuozuo shook her head, while Huang Shikun and He Xinrui, who had been arrogant, gritted their teeth in anger.
Chi Moqing turned to look at Li Minghua, "Since there's nothing else to do today, my wife and I will head back now." With that, he put his arm around Yan Zuozuo and left.
They quickly got into the car. Yan Zuozuo looked at Chi Moqing's angry face and couldn't help but smile ingratiatingly, "Honey, are you angry that I secretly followed us?"
"Why would I be angry about this?" Chi Moqing held her hand and tenderly kissed her forehead. "It's all my fault for making you suffer here."
"I wasn't upset at all. I thought my husband was incredibly wise and handsome just now. I wouldn't have seen him if it weren't for today." She chuckled. "It's okay, it was all my fault for being so presumptuous. I'll definitely stay home and wait for you from now on."
Waiting for him at home?
No, it was all because he didn't give her enough security that she secretly followed him and almost got bullied. He decided that from now on, he would take his little wife with him wherever he went, so she wouldn't have to worry or be afraid.
Moreover, they are not allowed to leave your side even for a moment!
He reached out and pulled her into his arms, whispering in her ear, "While you're resting, I want to stay by your side every moment!"
Yan Zuozuo was taken aback. What was wrong with this man this time?
She pursed her lips: "Isn't this a bad idea? What will I do if I need to use the restroom?"
Chi Moqing paused: "I'll stand guard at the door!"
Yan Zuozuo coughed up blood, which made Chi Moqing chuckle. He reached out and pinched her nose, saying, "Just kidding."
Yan Zuozuo glared at him playfully, but quickly forgot the unpleasantness. She had spent the whole day playing outside with Chi Moqing, buying lots of things. To make things easier later, Chi Moqing found a driver to take the things back to them and then let him go home.
