Dai Xi took a sip of water, pulled Jiang Nansun over, and started questioning her, "You said this Lawyer Zou was introduced by a friend of yours?"
"Which friend? Male or female?"
"Huh?" Jiang Nansun's pretty face turned red instantly, "Just a friend. Aunt, why are you asking about that?"
Dai Xi gave her a meaningful look. Did she really think she could hide anything from her with that little bit of experience?
Dai Xi's gaze was deep, "Did you break up with Zhang Anren?"
Jiang Nansun's eyes widened instantly, "Aunt, did my mom tell you?"
Dai Xi didn't answer her directly, "That Zhang Anren wouldn't find a lawyer for you, let alone a Bodyguard."
"He hasn't even come today. Is that so hard to guess?"
Dai Xi raised an eyebrow, wearing a gratified smile, "So there's someone else?"
Jiang Nansun shook her head like a rattle-drum, "That's not the case."
Dai Xi frowned, "Then where did this lawyer, and that room full of people in black suits and black sunglasses come from?"
Jiang Nansun's brain worked at lightning speed. Her relationship with Chen Cheng couldn't be told to anyone; it couldn't see the light of day.
"Oh, Aunt, you're overthinking it. It's just a friend. He just gave the idea; the lawyer and the Bodyguard were both hired with money."
"Those few Bodyguards cost twelve thousand for just one day."
Dai Xi looked at her expression, which didn't seem to be lying, and frowned, "Really?"
Jiang Nansun nodded firmly, "Of course. If you don't believe me, ask Suo Suo."
Zhu Suosuo's alarm bells rang instantly. She forced a smile and nodded at Dai Xi, "Yes, Aunt."
"The person who gave the idea is indeed Nansun's friend. He's also a teacher at the school, teaches Game Theory, and is extremely capable."
With Zhu Suosuo adding this detail about the person's identity, Dai Xi muttered, "Game Theory?" and suddenly believed it for the most part.
Seeing that Dai Xi didn't press further, Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo both breathed a sigh of relief.
A smile hung on Jiang Nansun's lips as she asked Dai Xi, "Aunt, why did you suddenly come back?"
Dai Xi curled her lips, "With such a big thing happening, and your mother never having been exposed to society, plus your dad's lack of responsibility, how could I rest easy?"
As she spoke, a smile rose on her lips, and she affectionately pinched Jiang Nansun's cheek, "You, on the other hand, gave me quite a pleasant surprise."
"Our Nansun has grown up and started to handle things on her own."
Jiang Nansun looked touched, raised her hands to wrap them around Dai Xi's neck, "Aunt, you're so good~ Hehe~"
Watching Dai Xi and Jiang Nansun being so 'loving and filial', Zhu Suosuo couldn't help but shed tears.
The two who were hugging only noticed after quite a while.
"Suo Suo, why are you crying?" Jiang Nansun stood up and walked over, reaching out to wipe her tears with a pained heart.
Zhu Suosuo couldn't hold it back any longer, hugged Jiang Nansun's waist, and started sobbing loudly.
Dai Xi was experienced and knew Zhu Suosuo's background, so she naturally understood quickly why she was crying.
She stood up, walked over, and reached out to gently stroke her back to comfort her, "Alright, Suo Suo, from now on, treat me like your own aunt, just like Nansun does."
Zhu Suosuo raised her head, eyes red, and said with a tearful voice, "Aunt~"
"Yes~"
The three women hugged each other for a while, then packed their things and left the old house.
On Chen Cheng's side, after hearing Zou Yu's report, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
He praised her, "The results are not bad."
The micro-loan company extended eight million, plus the five million from the middle-aged man who was familiar with the Jiang Family, and some other miscellaneous amounts; the total amount chosen for extension actually exceeded fifteen million.
This meant that once the Jiang Family sold the house, they would basically fill this hole.
As for the remaining fifteen million plus, let Jiang Pengfei pay it back slowly.
Zou Yu didn't dare to take the credit, curling her lips, "It was all planned by you; I just followed orders."
Chen Cheng smiled and reached out to pull her into his arms, "A good plan still needs someone with enough execution power to carry it out to be effective."
"Today we exceeded the target; isn't that proof of your good performance?"
Scum Cheng's hand had already reached into her clothes, "Come, let Husband reward you."
Zou Yu blushed, acting coyly, "Who wants your reward."
Chen Cheng's lips curled up. If you don't want it, then refuse.
You could just jump down and run.
Soon, sounds like the song of a lark, sometimes gentle and sometimes high-pitched, drifted from the study.
It was captivating and thought-provoking.
Zou Yu had been staying by Chen Cheng's side a lot recently, having tasted the fruit, she was becoming a bit addicted.
If he wanted it, no matter the time or place, she never refused.
Because she also wanted to...
When Jiang Nansun and the others left Fuxing Road, Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo both glanced at the lit window on the second floor of Chen Cheng's villa.
Then they looked at each other, their pretty faces flushed red.
With Dai Xi there, the two didn't dare to go to Chen Cheng's place, so they just quietly sent a message to Chen Cheng, and then followed Dai Xi to the hotel for dinner.
10:00 PM.
After Zou Yu and Chen Cheng finished their nighttime fitness workout, she had already fallen asleep in the bedroom.
And Chen Cheng was in the study watching the morning market in America when he received an unexpected message.
[Aunt: Are you free? Let's meet.]
The person sending the message was clearly Dai Xi.
Dai Xi sent the message and also provided her location.
Chen Cheng looked at the location—a hotel—and the corners of his mouth curled up instantly. Aunt must be missing him.
He immediately frowned, thinking of Jiang Nansun.
A moment later, the smile on his lips grew even wider.
Last night, Zhu Suosuo had taken the initiative to break the barrier in her relationship with Chen Cheng, and even pulled Jiang Nansun in to join. Chen Cheng was ecstatic.
Today, Dai Xi actually came back...
Hehehe~~
Chen Cheng raised an eyebrow, didn't reply to the message, went to the room to get a jacket, and went downstairs.
He drove straight to the hotel and only replied to the message when he reached the hotel parking lot.
[Room number]
Dai Xi was holding a red wine glass in one hand and her phone in the other, gazing at the night view of both banks of the Huangpu River, lost in thought.
As soon as she heard the message notification, Dai Xi immediately picked it up to check.
Seeing that it was Chen Cheng's message, a bright smile curled up on her lips instantly.
She put down the wine glass and ran towards the room door, hurriedly pulling out the key card, not even changing her shoes as she ran out of the room.
She pressed the elevator button before replying to the message, breathless.
[Where are you? I'll come down to get you; you can't come up without a card.]
[Underground garage]
[Okay, I'll be there right away, wait for me.]
Chen Cheng looked at the message, his lips curling up; he could see the eagerness between the lines.
He pushed open the car door and walked unhurriedly towards the elevator lobby.
Chen Cheng waited less than half a minute in the elevator lobby when the middle elevator door slowly opened.
As soon as Dai Xi saw Chen Cheng at the elevator entrance, she rushed forward and threw herself into his arms.
She wrapped her legs around his waist, hanging onto him, her arms wrapped around his neck, and kissed his lips.
Chen Cheng was stunned by Aunt's enthusiasm.
Is she really this clingy?
Dai Xi's eyes were hazy, kissing him selflessly;
Scum Cheng, however, was exceptionally clear-headed, responding while carrying her into the elevator.
The two of them kissed all the way to the floor where the hotel lobby was located.
The elevator door opened, Chen Cheng patted Dai Xi, and only then did Dai Xi blush and get down from him.
Tonight was destined to be restless.
