One person: I was already fighting the Heavenly Master, but the system just came
Chapter 52: Palace Guardian
Chapter 52: Palace Guardian
"My grandfather often comes here to eat, so I naturally like the taste of this restaurant." Chu Qingmei explained with a smile.
If her grandfather hadn't brought her here to eat since she was a child.
She probably wouldn't enter such a classical restaurant.
As for why her grandfather liked to eat here, she had no idea. Maybe it was because the food in the restaurant tasted good?
Many elderly people in Tianjin like to come here to try the Shandong cuisine.
The two of them quickly came into the private room. Chu Yang didn't even look at the menu and randomly ordered a few dishes that he often ate.
"Grandpa, your taste is very similar to that of my grandfather." Chu Qingmei was a little surprised. The dishes ordered by the old man in front of her were basically Zuixianju's specialties.
These are also the dishes that my grandfather must order every time he comes.
"Master, do you often come here to eat?"
Chu Yang: "I've been here a few times before, but I haven't been here for a long time recently. I don't know if my taste has changed."
The two chatted casually.
Basically, it was Chu Qingmei who spoke, and Chu Yang agreed or answered a few words.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but sometimes when Chu Yang looks at the little girl in front of him, he always feels a sense of déjà vu.
Looking at her from a certain angle, her features resembled those of his first wife.
"You look like you have something on your mind?"
"Well, hey~" Chu Qingmei was originally pretending to be relaxed, but after hearing Chu Yang's words, she could no longer hide it.
He let out a long sigh.
The series of events that happened one after another in one day had already made her feel suffocated.
Now that the old man in front of her had asked, she simply stopped hiding it. She could have confided her worries to her grandfather.
But her grandfather had been taken away by the relevant authorities, and she didn't even have anyone to talk to.
"Grandpa has indeed encountered some troubles recently."
"Hey~"
Chu Qingmei rubbed her eyebrows, her face full of sadness, without any other expression.
"My company has encountered some problems recently. Our competitors have secretly put obstacles in our way."
"Some customers were poisoned in our mall. If this matter is not handled properly, not only will the company go bankrupt, but most importantly, those customers may be in danger of their lives."
Having said that, Chu Qingmei clenched her slender jade fingers into a fist.
There was a rare look of anger in his eyes.
She could not tolerate such things as threatening the lives of ordinary people. The other party had touched her bottom line.
“The business world is like a battlefield. There are indeed some intrigues, but threatening ordinary people’s lives is indeed a bit too much.” Chu Yang did not show much emotional fluctuation when he heard this.
Just a slight nod.
He has been accustomed to all kinds of methods over the years.
"What are you going to do?"
Chu Qingmei spread out her five fingers weakly, sighed again, and sat on the chair as if she was helpless.
"I don't want the business of my ancestors to be destroyed in my hands, but I can't just stand by and watch ordinary people lose their lives."
“Well, money is just something outside of your body. You don’t have to care so much about it.” Chu Yang showed a hint of admiration in his eyes.
This young man has a good character. The fact that he could say these words has already proved what she is thinking.
Chu Qingmei gently frowned, and the worry on her face became even darker. It would be great if the other party could really let go.
Even if the company is really acquired, she is not without the courage to start over again.
However, based on her understanding of Zhou Yungang, he would definitely not let it go so easily.
The fact that he could hire an alien to deal with ordinary people proves that this person is ruthless and will never consider the consequences of his actions. "Grandpa, you don't know, it would be great if the other party could really let us go after acquiring our company."
"But his idea is to kill them all."
"The other party wants to destroy our family and make us unable to recover."
Chu Qingmei knew very well that she had no way out. As long as she agreed to the other party's acquisition proposal three days later, her Chu family would be like fish on the chopping board.
Let others slaughter you.
But now that Tianxia Group is not offering any help, she can't find any help at all.
It seems that the only outcome that awaits them is the destruction of their families.
Chu Qingmei closed her eyes unwillingly, trying hard not to let the tears fall. Only then did she realize how much pressure her grandfather had been under for so many years.
The comfort of the entire family rests on grandpa alone.
Chu Yang didn't say anything more, just sipped the tea in front of him.
He still didn't react much to Chu Qingmei's words.
As he just said, the business world is like a battlefield. Businessmen value profit, so it is not surprising that they use all kinds of insidious tactics.
He didn't even think about solving any problems for the little girl in front of him.
The two met by chance, and although there was some fate between them, they could only be considered acquaintances.
What's more, Chu Yang himself is not a person who likes to meddle in other people's affairs. His style of doing things back then was very similar to Yang Zhu's teachings.
Many people even almost thought that he had joined Quan Xing.
Not pluck a single hair, not take a single cent.
"Dingling bell~Dingling bell~"
Suddenly, the cell phone in Chu Qingmei's pocket rang.
Chu Qingmei then slowly opened her tearful eyes and gently wiped the water droplets from them.
He apologized to Chu Yang and forced a smile: "Grandpa, I'm sorry for making you listen to my troubles."
The reason why she said these words to Chu Yang was that the recent events had overwhelmed her and she wanted to find someone to talk to.
Now that she had gotten rid of her unhappiness, her mood had improved a lot.
"Hello, what's the matter, Manager Li?"
Chu Qingmei answered the phone and her tone returned to her usual calmness.
Just when he raised his hand, a vermilion mark appeared on his wrist, which was a vermilion magatama mark.
Only the size of a little finger.
At first glance it looks like a birthmark.
However, when Chu Yang, who had been calm all along, saw the scarlet magatama mark on Chu Qingmei's wrist, his eyes suddenly fixed.
I recognized the mark at a glance.
Is this a method passed down from his wife's family?
Chu Yang frowned slightly. Is this little girl in front of him really the daughter of his first wife? !
Shouldn't those people live in Kyoto?
How did you get to Tianjin?
"Grandpa, will the investigation time be extended? Okay, I get it. Tell all employees to just work normally and don't be affected."
"I'll take care of the rest."
Chu Qingmei couldn't hear any emotion, so she hung up the phone, stood up and prepared to leave.
The relevant departments had extended the investigation time for her grandfather. She was no longer in the mood to continue eating and had to go and inquire about the situation as soon as possible.
My grandfather is in poor health and I am afraid he cannot be investigated for a long time.
"Wait a moment, little girl."
