An Exclusive love-Chapter 426 - The Teachings of Mr. Bai
People didn’t expect to see the constantly released news when the Chinese New Year was coming. First, the God of War was suspended from his duties. Then, his subordinate was arrested on suspicion of murder. Now there was also a corruption scandal.
It was widely spread throughout the circle that the Jiang family might be going to collapse.
“I know what you want to say.” Mr. Bai stood in the yard and made a posture of Yin and Yang fish form. “Whether it is true or not, it has nothing to do with the Bai family.”
“What about the Lu family?” Bai Ziqi said with some dissatisfaction. He really didn’t know why Grandpa and Dad thought highly of Lu Tao, who was a hypocrite.
Mr. Bai continued to exercise, saying lightly, “The Lu family is just the Lu family. What Lu Tao does is his own business. He cannot represent the Bai family.” Seeing that Bai Ziqi was still struggling with the question, the old man slowly finished his exercise and patted him on the shoulder.
“Ziqi, I’m glad that you come to ask me about those things today. I used to think that I couldn’t get you on the right way, but I didn’t expect such a prodigal as you to correct yourself.” The old man picked up his dark-red enameled pottery and took a sip. “I have spent half my lifetime defending my country. I’m old enough now, and what I still worry about is the Bai family.”
Bai Ziqi smiled. “Grandpa, I won’t let you down. I’ll be here with the Bai family forever.”
“Yeah!” Mr. Bai gave him a glance. “You are here.”
The old man suddenly changed his expressions, exuding an air of determination and aggressiveness. “Ziqi, there are two reasons why we fight with the Jiang family. First, I was not ready to accept the fact, that I have fought with Jiang Min all my life and he actually has such a grandson as Jiang Rui but I didn’t. But now, the Bai family has you.”
“Second, if the Bai family is always in a position of disadvantage, we will be elbowed out of the circle when your kids grow up. Currently, I don’t have to worry about the two challenges. Because you are here.” Mr. Bai paused and continued.
“But facing these two challenges is premised on national stability. We must not let the common people suffer because of our private ends.” The old man looked at Bai Ziqi sharply. “Ziqi, we are soldiers. Protecting our country is our mission. Our weapons are pointed at the enemy forever!”
It was the first time for Bai Ziqi to see his grandfather like now. For a while, he was a little bit shocked, and murmured, “Grandpa… Grandpa…”
“Now, do you have any questions?” Mr. Bai smiled. “If not, just go ahead. The Bai family will only be your backing, and it will never hinder you.”
These days, watching Jiang Rui be constantly in trouble, Bai Ziqi knew that it definitely had something with the Lu family. But he didn’t know if the Bai family was also involved in that. He was afraid that he would find it had something to do with his father and grandpa if he went on with the investigation.
Now after listening to Mr. Bai’s words, he felt both shocked and ashamed. He actually had misunderstood Grandpa who was far from what he knew. He was an old general who had gone through the war years. He was a battle-hardened soldier of iron will, forever admirable and respectable.
At that moment, Bai Ziqi finally felt that others from the Bai family were his blood relatives. He clenched his fist. “Grandpa, I get it!”
“All right.” Mr. Bai nodded. “But this time, stay out of the affairs.”
“Grandpa?” Bai Ziqi didn’t understand.
Mr. Bai sighed. “Young son, do you see that the Jiang family takes action?”
Bai Ziqi was stunned.
“If Jiang Rui could be framed so easily, he wouldn’t be called the God of War.” Mr. Bai said with obvious envy. Bai Ziqi said with a bitter smile, “Grandpa…”
“Anyway, just leave it alone.” Mr. Bai waved his hand. “As for the Lu family, let them know how powerful their enemy is, for fear that they are so greedy and lose all.”
After Xiao Si was locked up for three days, the situation suddenly reversed. There were only a few boxes of shoddy military supplies found in the warehouse. Scar especially gave a report that those supplies were left over before. They were about to be destroyed, but actually led to a misunderstanding.
No one believed this statement, but when Bai Ziqi led some people to check all the supplies, they just found that there were really only the ones they had originally found and sealed up. As the report letter stated, half of the supplies in the warehouse were shoddy goods. But actually, the remaining supplies were all in line with the standards.
“Why are you looking at us like that?” Scar leaned against the door of the warehouse. “You sealed up the boxes. Besides, you sent them on guard. Do you think that we changed military supplies? Unless we have an ability to move the supplies by underhand means?”
Bai Ziqi smiled. “I didn’t mean that. In that case, I’ll go back to report that it is a misunderstanding.”
“Bye!” Scar waved at him.
When walking by Scar, Bai Ziqi whispered, “Do you come up with a solution to deal with the suddenly additional half a million yuan in Xiao Si’s bank account?” Seeing Scar stare at himself with a strange expression, Bai Ziqi wore a bigger smile. “I just remind you!”
Scar saw him off and shivered. Why did he think this guy had become so friendly now…?
When knowing that Xiao Si was released, Lu Tao was driving, and he almost hit an electricity pole on the side of the road.
“Damn it! What’s wrong?” He pounded on the steering wheel fiercely. “Does Jiang Rui take action?” After thinking about it for a long time, he decided to call Bai Ziqi.
Bai Ziqi was not surprised when he received the call. The Lu family was certainly involved in the matter.
“Because there is no physical evidence.” He told Lu Tao that the supplies in the warehouse were all quality military supplies.
On hearing his words, Lu Tao instinctively shouted out. “Impossible! I obviously…”
“Obviously what?” Bai Ziqi asked with a smile, “Why are you so agitated?”
“Well, no.” Lu Tao calmed down and sighed. “I just feel it is a pity. If Jiang Rui’s force is completely destroyed, it will be good for your official career. By the way, how about Bear’s case? Has he been convicted?”
Bai Ziqi was not afraid to tell him the result. “Not yet. I don’t know the decision.”
“He killed a person! There’s no reason to hesitate.” Lu Tao felt that the military court had the lower efficiency than local court. If Bear were an ordinary people, he would had been early sentenced to life imprisonment.
“I can’t govern these affairs, let alone you.” Bai Ziqi paused and said, “If you have time to worry about that, you might as well go to the hospital and stay with my sister.”
A touch of impatience flashed across Lu Tao’s eyes, but he still said enthusiastically, “I’m on the way to hospital now. I’ll hang up!”
He hung up the phone, and decided that he would definitely not let Bear be released anyway. He set up so many traps, and if no one was caught in the trap, his efforts would fail. Just about to start the car, his phone beeped. It was an e-mail.
While driving, he opened it casually. Then Lu Tao hit the curb for the second time. He wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead, and looked at a high-definition photo in the mobile phone. Two naked people were hugging each other. It was he and Lu Zixin.
This woman was dead.
After he took over the company, he killed the woman and even sent her daughter to the Red Light District in Thailand.
It startled him. He looked around while shivering, hurrying up to check the email address and receiving a text message.
“Mr. Lu, if the person who is being locked up fails to come out within three days, this photo will be sent to reporters. By the way, in addition to photos, we also have many videos. Do you want to watch some?”
Lu Tao discarded his mobile phone in a panic and started the car. He was not going to the hospital, but went straight home.
Xiao Si looked at the computer and gloated. “What an asshole! If he knows that his younger brother is still alive, will he break down?”
“Take your time.” Scar yawned. “Frighten him from time to time. He will sooner or later be insane, so that we don’t need to do it ourselves.”
These days, Ah Zi was very bored, working with them. “Why didn’t Boss Jiang ruin him at a once?”
“Not now. We can kill only him now, but Boss wants the entire Lu family.” Xiao Si suddenly smiled. “Your Bear will come out soon, and you don’t have to spend your nights alone!”
“Get out!” Ah Zi gave him a kick. “You are jealous of me.”
Scar also came over, “Didn’t you accept his proposal when you went to see him before?”
“At that time, I thought that he was going to be sentenced. Now that he’s okay, my acceptance will not count!” That guy was so shameless to nibble her breasts for half an hour when she accepted his proposal. She felt uncomfortable in lust, but was too shy to strip off his clothes and sleep with him.
“Finally, the problems can be all resolved.” Xiao Si immediately looked sad. “Boss and Mrs. Jiang are going on vacation alone.”
Ah Zi was also indignant. “Well, it’s the Great Barrier Reef. I haven’t been there yet!”
“Listen to me…” Scar blinked. “We can go there by ourselves!”
They didn’t know that Chen Chen was trying to make a decision now.
There was a week before the Spring Festival. In the morning, she and Jiang Rui sent Tuan Zi to the winter holiday arrangement meeting on the last school day. When they returned, they saw two people standing at the door.
“Mom?” Jiang Rui said in surprise. “Why don’t you inform us of your coming?”
Xin Qing smiled and held Chen Chen’s hand. “We are here to pick up Tuan Zi!”
Jiang Rui squinted. “Let’s go in first!”
“Mom… Mom.” Chen Chen stammered. Since their last returning, Xin Qing had asked her to call her Mom instead. Because when Chen Chen was young, she agreed to call Xin Qing Godmother. Later, Liuliu ran away from home and never called her Godmother, so she should make up for Xin Qing now.
“Good girl! Did Xiao Rui bully you?” Xin Qing gave Jiang Rui a glance. “Well, I did a good job, right?”
Jiang Rui silently gave her a thumbs-up.
A few days ago, he occasionally said over the phone that he would like to go along with Chen Chen and Tuan Zi on vacation. Immediately, Xin Qing rushed to pick up Tuan Zi, deliberately creating a lovers’ world for them. Jiang Rui was very pleased to hear that. He had thought about it before, but he felt that Tuan Zi might be sad when he proposed it.
Now… Well, it’s all resolved!
“Mom, Brother Xiao Rui will take us to play on your island. Will you go too?” Chen Chen didn’t know she had fallen into a trap. Ying Qingcang kept silence and said to himself. This girl had to help him count the money even if she was sold by Jiang Rui.
Xin Qing shook her head. “Ah Sha’s baby is too young. We’ll all spend the New Year at the Wan family this year. I want to take Tuan Zi there. Junjun misses her very much!
“But…” Chen Chen hesitated. “What if Tuan Zi disagrees?”
