No matter how fierce I will cry for you

Chapter 421 Give Me Time to Investigate

"I'll emphasize this one last time, stay away from Zhou Zhao." Mr. Shao had teased his child enough, so he let go of his hand and turned to walk into the room.

"Even if you're not with me, don't provoke Zhou Zhao." Mr. Shao continued.

It’s better not to get involved in the Zhou family’s mess.

The huge pressure suddenly faded away, and Miss Qiao only felt the air was fresh and her breathing was smooth. As for what Mr. Shao said, she didn't hear a word of it.

She felt that Mr. Shao was just jealous and that was why he didn't allow her to have any contact with Zhou Zhao.

"Got it." Miss Qiao agreed happily.

"What Zhou Zhao said may not be true. I will investigate your illness thoroughly. It won't be too late to make a decision once the truth is revealed. Do you understand?" Mr. Shao said earnestly.

He hoped that the little fox would listen to him and give him time to find out the whole story.

However, Miss Qiao felt that she knew everything and that Mr. Shao was the only one who was deceived, so she did not argue but just pretended to agree seriously.

In her heart, even Zhou Zhao was an outsider, and she was the only one who understood her illness.

She never doubted Zhou Zhao.

"If you don't obey, we're really done." Mr. Shao 'warned' again.

Miss Qiao nodded rapidly, just wanting to get away with it as quickly as possible.

"You know me, don't step on my minefields," said Mr. Shao.

Miss Qiao continued to nod, not taking it to heart at all.

"I will stay at the Shen family these days. I can't accompany you to the political meeting tomorrow. Have you thought about how to deal with those difficult guys?" Mr. Shao started to talk about business.

Miss Qiao shook her head. She was in a state of confusion and had no idea what the situation would be like tomorrow. "Grandpa's assistant is waiting for you in the study. Go find her. It's not convenient for me to accompany you." Mr. Shao said again.

He had predicted the current situation of the Shen family a year ago, and naturally, he had made arrangements early on. Now, as long as he followed the procedures, it would not be difficult to overcome the crisis.

"Oh." Miss Qiao responded and ran away like a little mouse released by a cat.

Mr. Shao couldn't help but find it funny. After all, she was a young girl and was rash in her actions. He just hoped that she would remember his words to heart.

Mr. Shen's deputy is a middle-aged man over 50 years old. He has followed Mr. Shen since he was young. He has gone through life and death for Mr. Shen for so many years and has earned his current position.

He was loyal to Mr. Shen and explained everything clearly to Miss Qiao Er, no matter how big or small.

Just before attending the council meeting, Miss Qiao was called into a room alone by Mr. Shen.

"What do you think of Maude?" Old Master Shen leaned against the head of the bed, and his voice was obviously weak.

"The people employed by grandpa are naturally reliable." said Miss Qiao Er.

She didn't quite understand what Mr. Shen meant.

"What does reliable mean?" Mr. Shen asked again.

Miss Qiao Er was even more confused: "It's someone who is trustworthy."

"Wrong!" Mr. Shen began to breathe heavily because of the rising tone of his voice. "Every dynasty that collapsed, every emperor who was forced to die, all killed them because of trust!"

"As a person in power, you cannot trust anyone. Only a good system and a good strategy can make a person loyal forever. Trust is like a knife that will cut through every inch of your territory. Do you understand?"

Mr. Shen was very emotional. Without waiting for Miss Qiao's response, he raised his hand and suddenly dropped it heavily.

"Grandpa!"
