As soon as they arrived upstairs, Mo Yurou started talking about Shen Leyi. Xiao Zichen smiled lightly and said.
"As far as I know, there was actually a sense of uneasiness in Kyoto more than a year ago. I guess Shen Leyi's sudden visit to Luo City must have been arranged by Shen Peiqiang. Don't forget, Shen Peiqiang came out of Luo City, and he knew very well where he was from. Where can I start to fill the holes he has made over the years, but his holes are too big and cannot be filled with just a little money."
After hearing what Xiao Zichen said, Mo Yurou shook her head with emotion and said something.
"The Shen family is too greedy."
"Humph, who in this world would think money is scarce?"
Mo Yurou listened, nodded, and then asked another question.
"What should we do next? Will the Shen family really be honest?"
After all, Mo Yurou had not had much contact with the Shen family, and she didn't know if they would jump over the wall in a hurry. When she used her connections with the Mu family, wasn't she just trying to protect the Sino-Ocean Group? Now things have reached this point. , of course I hope everything develops in the direction they expected.
Xiao Zichen thought for a moment and said.
"I'm planning to go to Kyoto soon. Ask Master Mu if you can let me meet Shen Peiqiang."
After hearing this, Mo Yurou nodded and said without thinking.
"Okay, it's too late today. I'll contact Mu Jinghao tomorrow."
In a high-end community in downtown Los Angeles, when Shen Leyi returned home, she found that the lights in the apartment were on. She hurried upstairs. As soon as she entered, she saw Zhou Meiqian sitting anxiously in the living room, waiting for her.
"Le Yi, how's it going? Did Xiao Zichen agree?"
When Shen Leyi heard this, she threw her bag on the sofa irritably, and then she said with a heartbeat.
"Mom, I told you a long time ago that that man Xiao Zichen is very hard-hearted and unwilling to help us at all. This time, daddy will have no choice but to go to jail."
"How is it possible, Le Yi, have you mentioned the project nine years ago? We just want him to contribute a little money, and there is no way he will reject you regardless of the interests of the group."
When Zhou Meiqian heard Shen Leyi's answer, she was anxious and asked hurriedly, but Shen Leyi pushed Zhou Meiqian away, then sat down on the sofa and lowered her head.
"Mom, forget it, we underestimated the strength of Xiao Zichen and his wife. They have found out all the funds I embezzled in the past year in Los Angeles. They even found out the fund company under my aunt's name. You are now Let’s think about what we two will do in the future?”
When Zhou Meiqian heard this, her face instantly turned pale and she staggered, but she was still unwilling to give in and walked up to Shen Leyi and said.
"No, Le Yi, listen to me. If your father really falls, life will not be easy for you and I, you know? How about we go find Xiao Zichen tomorrow? No, we go directly Looking for Lu Yazhen, I don't believe she will not miss her old relationship."
"That's enough, Mom, Xiao Zichen's parents left Luo City three days ago. If I couldn't find them, why would I go to see Xiao Zichen and that woman? Mom, Daddy is already like this, even if I make up all the money , do you think he can still have the same glory as before? At his age, if he steps down from that position, what else do you think he can do, it would be better to just stay in prison, which can reduce the burden on the family a little. "
Who would have thought that Shen Leyi would say such heartless words? Zhou Meiqian was so angry that her hands were shaking, and she slapped her angrily.
There was a snap! Suddenly, there were five finger prints on the left side of Shen Leyi's face. It could be seen that Zhou Meiqian was really angry.
Shen Leyi suddenly felt very aggrieved. It wasn't like she didn't want to save her father, but if she continued to look for the Xiao family, if she angered them and exposed her own affairs, it would be her father who was not the only one who would be in jail. Disaster.
"Mom, even if you beat me to death, I have to say, do you think Dad can get through this disaster safely this time? Even if he makes up for all the money, do you think he can sit back and relax? We all It’s very clear that by filling those loopholes, I just hope that the sentence will be reduced by a few years in the future. But Mom, you can’t just ignore me for daddy! I’m still so young, I don’t want to go to jail, and these things are what you arranged for me to do. Yes, why should I pay for your mistakes?"
Shen Leyi felt extremely wronged. If it weren't for her parents' arrangement, she wouldn't have been willing to come to Los Angeles to be the chairman of a charity association. Now that the scandal has been revealed, should she, a woman, be buried with him?
Hearing Shen Leyi's angry complaints, Zhou Meiqian hesitated, and suddenly she hugged Shen Leyi and cried bitterly.
"Le Yi, it's me and dad who are sorry for you. It's us who hurt you. Le Yi, listen to mommy now and come back to Kyoto with me tomorrow. Let's go find Mu Jinghao. Only the Mu family can save your dad now. The ground is gone.”
When Shen Leyi heard this, she immediately pushed Zhou Meiqian away and said with disbelief.
"Mommy, do you still want to sell your daughter like a commodity? I have said that I don't like Mu Jinghao and I don't want to marry him. Can you consider my feelings?"
"That's enough, Shen Leyi, can you stop being so selfish and willful? My parents have worked hard and planned for many years, and for whom are they all doing it? Think about what you have eaten, used, and worn over the years. Which one is not the best?" , these are all given to you by your daddy. Now I just ask you to marry someone else for daddy. Why can't you agree? Mu Jinghao is so outstanding and has a bright future. The key is that he likes you so much. You have to marry her. What's wrong? Are you still thinking about that Xiao Zichen? He already has a wife and children, and he doesn't look down on you at all. Why can't you be more sensible?"
As she said that, Zhou Meiqian looked at her daughter with an indifferent expression, without a trace of pity in her eyes.
"Shen Leyi, let me tell you clearly now, if your father's matter cannot be solved this time, you will never think about the life of a young lady in the future. Don't forget, if the tree falls, the monkeys will scatter, let alone your father. I have offended many people over the years. I am afraid it will be difficult for you to have a stable life in the future. Marrying Mu Jinghao is the only way you can choose now."
Zhou Meiqian also worked hard for her husband. She loved her daughter, but she knew the current situation better. Once Shen Peiqiang fell, the two of them might not even be able to reach the level of an ordinary well-off family.
Regardless of whether the Mu family agrees to help the Shen family overcome this difficulty, as long as Shen Leyi marries Mu Jinghao, even if Shen Peiqiang goes to jail, life will be much easier for the two of them because of the Mu family as a backer.
After Zhou Meiqian finished speaking, she saw Shen Leyi sitting on the sofa and just crying. She sighed heavily and said something.
"Leyi, you have grown up. You should understand why mommy insists on you marrying Mu Jinghao. Think about it for yourself. We will return to Kyoto early tomorrow morning."
After saying that, Zhou Meiqian returned to the room.
The next day, Shen Leyi and Zhou Meiqian returned to Kyoto. They boarded the plane, and Xiao Zichen received the news a second later.
Three days later, Xiao Zichen and Mo Yurou also went to Kyoto. Xiao Zichen originally planned to go there alone, but Mo Yurou received a call from Mu Jinghao's father, hoping that she could go to Kyoto to visit him, an old man. It was difficult to refuse such kindness. , Mo Yurou agreed.
"Wu Ma, Jessica, I have troubled you to take care of Luoluo and Si Nian these days. If you need anything, you must call me."
Mo Yurou was really reluctant to part with her daughter for the first time. Unfortunately, Luo Luo didn't realize that she would be separated from her mother for several days. Seeing Mo Yurou talking, she kept laughing next to her. .
Before one o'clock that afternoon, Mo Yurou and Xiao Zichen's plane landed at Kyoto International Airport, and Mu Jinghao personally drove over to pick them up.
Different from the high-rise buildings and bustling buildings in Los Angeles, the city of Kyoto is full of rich cultural heritage. From the moment she left the airport, Mo Yurou could feel the difference between this place and Los Angeles. That kind of solemnity and calmness.
"Father happens to be meeting foreign guests today, but he said that we will have dinner together at the Kyoto State Guesthouse in the evening. I will take you to the hotel to rest for a while."
After getting in the car, Mu Jinghao explained the arrangements for a while. After finishing speaking, he looked at Mo Yurou and complained.
"Mo Yurou, didn't I call and ask you to bring your daughter here? I haven't met your daughter yet."
"Next time, I have too many things to do here this time. I'm afraid I won't have time to take care of Luo Luo. If you really want to see me, come directly to Luo City to see us next time. I don't mind leaving my daughter to you for a day. I guarantee that you will never Will want to see my daughter."
A child of five or six months old may seem innocent and cute, but it is also very energy-consuming, especially every time she has a tantrum, and I don’t know why she is crying, so I have to be patient and coax her.
After hearing this, Mu Jinghao smiled lightly and said.
"Forget it, babies are creatures that we adults cannot easily touch. Beauty comes from distance."
Hearing what Mu Jinghao said, Mo Yurou and Xiao Zichen looked at each other and smiled. During this period, Xiao Zichen went back to accompany his two children after work every day. It was considered that he had given birth to an unreasonable creature like a baby, even if he was outside. The high-ranking CEO of the group, if Luo Luo cries, he, the big CEO, will beg his grandpa and grandma to coax him, and no threats or scoldings will be of any use.
"By the way, didn't you say before that Shen Peiqiang was watched closely and no one could see him? We can really see Shen Peiqiang this time."
"Don't worry, I've made all the arrangements. In fact, those people looking at him don't want him to talk nonsense."
When Mu Jinghao said this, Mo Yurou and Xiao Zichen immediately understood.
"Okay, you guys should rest first. We will contact you later. I will take you to see Shen Peiqiang tomorrow morning."
After arriving at the place where they were staying, Mu Jinghao hurriedly left the hotel after settling down Xiao Zichen and Mo Yurou. Because Mrs. Mo Yurou's legs had not fully recovered, Mo Yurou stayed in the hotel all afternoon, but Xiao Zichen went out in the middle. trip.
