Chapter 404: City: The True Story of the Cold-hearted Patriarch Being Bewitched (37)

"Xiao Qiu, Grandpa knows that the environment at the construction site is bad and the work is tiring, but our family has a lot of businesses. When I was young, I could go to more than a dozen construction sites a day to check and supervise. Young people, you always have to be patient."

The old man also made his way through life step by step when he was young, so he naturally knew the priorities of some things. At this moment, he was somewhat inclined to Chi Hua's point of view. He patted Chi Qiu's shoulder and taught him earnestly.

Chi Qiu lowered his head, his eyes moving rapidly, thinking about how to respond. The other party said the same thing as Chi Hua, thinking that he was greedy for pleasure and lazy.

This won’t do. The image he has worked so hard to build cannot be tarnished by someone else’s words!

"Grandpa, I'm sorry. Whenever I go to a place like that, I think of the past..."

"…If you don't want to go, then don't go. I'll pick a comfortable job for you in a few days." Chi Qiu grew up with his mother in the outside world and suffered a lot. Whenever Grandpa Chi thought of this, he felt that he owed this child a lot.

No longer concerned about Chi Qiu's work, the old man was waiting for Chi Zhen to come and question him.

When Chi Huaxun went over, Chi Zhen was hugging You Mu and chatting with Song Shuang.

Chi Zhen spent quite a bit of time chatting with President Qin about cooperation. He originally thought that the Song family members surrounding You Mu had already left, but he didn't expect that the three people opposite him seemed to have their soles stuck to the ground and didn't move at all.

He was about to walk over and chase the person away tactfully, but Chi Hua came over and interrupted what he was about to say.

It was clear what the old man was up to, and he really needed to resolve this matter.

After a brief thought, Chi Yu pulled You Mu to sit on the sofa on the side, picked up a pillow and placed it under his lower back. After giving him some instructions, he stood up and looked at the Song family members on the side.

"Mr. Chi seems to be very busy. It's okay. You don't have to entertain us. I'll go get some snacks for these children." Song Shuang knew that Chi Zhen wanted to chase her away, but since the other party didn't say it out loud, she could continue to be shameless.

Before the other person could speak, Song Shuang interrupted him and motioned for her son to sit down first. She then took Song Qingyang to the dessert area at the other end in a familiar manner, without giving Chi Zhen a chance to drive him away.

Chi Zhen really had no idea what to do. The person was no longer in front of him, and he couldn't just drive away a junior who was suffering from depression.

There was no other way, he could only deal with the old man’s anger first.

On the sofa, after confirming that his mother and Chi Zhen were gone, Song Moyang slowly raised his head, looked at You Mu, and asked cautiously:

"How are you?"

Rubbing his neck, You Mu asked, "What's wrong with me?"

Pointing at a certain spot on You Mu's neck, Song Moyang immediately retracted his hand, feeling embarrassed: "Um... the foundation on your neck is a little smudged."

The hand that was rubbing his neck froze, You Mu spread his hands out and saw that there was indeed some powder left in his palms.

The powder that was originally used to cover the marks was unconsciously rubbed off by him.

Thinking of the troublesome matter of concealing blemishes, You Mu's face immediately turned bad, and even his waist began to ache. He couldn't help but curse Chi Zhen in his heart.

Seeing the other party's constantly changing expression, Song Moyang was not sure whether the other party was willing to do this.

He didn't know much about the rest of the situation, but after catching a glimpse of anger in the other person's eyes, he mustered up the courage to speak out what was in his heart:

"You Mu, do you want to... I mean, if you don't want this..."

His mother will not stay in the Song family for long. She brought him back to China for medical treatment. After the New Year, it is time for her to return.

If You Mu doesn't like these things now, he thinks his mother will definitely help. They will run away and even if Chi Zhen is powerful, it will be difficult for him to find them in a short time.

Once upon a time, he was treated coldly in Rongcheng.

Now that he has gained family affection, he also wants the person who replaces him to live a free and unrestrained life.

Just think of it as him extending a helping hand to his former self.

"You Mu, if you don't like your current life, don't think about anything else and come with us!"

"He must go!" In a room separated from the bustling venue by a wall, Old Man Chi slammed the wooden table and demanded in a firm tone that Chi Zhen send You Mu away.

"I'm telling you, Chi Zhen, that You Mu must leave the Chi family!"

"He's already an adult, and he still needs you to support him? What nonsense! You are so kind, helping to build the company and helping to get the inheritance. Do you know what people say about you? You are ruining the reputation of the Chi family!"

Sitting on the first chair on the left, Chi Yu listened to the other party's scolding, but his face was not as respectful as before. He even laughed out loud when he heard Mr. Chi say that there were rumors.

"Whatever could be spread out to the outside world, wasn't it suppressed by you, father?" He wanted to let someone spread it, but he had to consider the young man's face.

"...You also know that I was the one who held it. If I wasn't there, would you just ignore the reputation of the Chi family?"

"Reputation? Does our Chi family have such a thing? Even if we do, no matter how absurd I am, I can't compare to you, father..." Chi Yu's gaze fell on Chi Qiu who was beside Old Man Chi, and the look in his eyes spoke for itself.

If this affair of Mr. Chi were to be spread out, I wonder how long it would remain on the entertainment section.

"...You...Chi Zhen...are you threatening your father?"

"Don't dare."

Every time he talked with Chi Yu, Mr. Chi would have trouble breathing. After taking a pill he had prepared in advance, his breathing became more stable, and he also understood the meaning of Chi Yu's words: "...You and him, it's real..."

He didn't believe it at first, thinking it was just a rumor...

"Yes."

After hearing this, the old man felt a black screen before his eyes, but he recovered immediately and thought that Chi Zhen was just bewitched for a while, and when he got tired of playing, he would not be so interested anymore.

Perhaps, he could calm down and find a qualified wife to marry and continue the bloodline of the Chi family.

He calmed down, his face became calmer, and he took the tea handed to him by Chi Qiu and drank it: "Even if it is true, you are a little too much, just for fun..."

"Father, are you tired?" Chi Zhen suddenly interrupted and changed the subject.

"...Yes, a little. Chi Zhen, you are not a young man anymore. You can have fun, but you should know your limits. Why not put him somewhere else to raise him first..."

Old Master Chi didn't understand at first. After all, he was old, and his mind was still confused. He thought Chi Zhen was showing weakness, so he went down the stairs to give him some instructions.

Unexpectedly, the son in front of him did not listen to his teachings at all and interrupted him again.

"Butler Lin, send the old man back to the backyard."

"Yes, sir." The person guarding the door pushed it open and came in with a few servants, pushing a wheelchair. They wanted to carry Mr. Chi on the wheelchair and push him away.

"What are you doing! This is rebellious! Lin Wenzhong!" The old man finally understood that Chi Zhen was demonstrating against him!

Even the old man who had been with him for decades rebelled!

"Uncle, what are you doing..." Chi Qiu wanted to stop him, but seeing the look in Chi Yu's eyes, he loosened his strength a little.

"Father, if you are more sensible, your son will take care of you in your old age and see you to the end of your life." On the contrary, if the old man wants to make trouble again, it is hard to say whether this promise will be counted...

Signaling Butler Lin to push the people away from the banquet hall, Chi Yu stood up and prepared to leave.

"You evil creature! You really are my good son! Why did I choose you alone in the first place?" The old man was pressed into the wheelchair, unable to struggle free, and turned his head to scold angrily.

Hearing this, Chi Zhen paused and turned around: "Father, have you forgotten? You chose me to take the throne because I don't recognize my relatives, right?"

"You raised me up because you thought I was too emotional and forced me to watch my mother commit suicide. But now, you think this kind of character is bad?" Facing the resentful and surprised look of Old Man Chi, Chi Yu retorted sarcastically.

These words shocked the old man so much that he could no longer say anything. He stared at the other person with his cloudy eyes under his wrinkled eyelids, trying to see a trace of emotion in the other person's eyes, even if it was hatred.

But no, Chi Yu was trained too well by him, and he was much better than him...

He only saw endless coldness in the other person's gray pupils.

With a trembling heart and when he was attacked back, Mr. Chi finally recalled the past and began to regret his selfishness and decisiveness.

Having witnessed the confrontation between the two generations of the Chi family in power, Chi Qiu was obviously not qualified. He looked at the trembling shoulders of the old man when he was pushed away, and his hands holding the chair began to tremble.

He wanted to leave quietly, but unexpectedly met Chi Zhen's eyes.

"There are many examples of illegitimate stewards in the Chi family's ancestors, but no family head has ever relied on some inferior means to rise to the top."

After saying this, Chi Zhen turned and left.

He really looked down on Chi Qiu. He had great ambitions, but he was secretive, afraid that others would know. It was clearly something he wanted, and others were fighting for it, but he pretended to shirk and avoid it. He was too petty.

The quality of the younger generation of the Chi family is extremely poor. If you really compare them, only Chi Xuanming still has some courage and bottom line.

Chi Zhen left, leaving Chi Qiuluo in the room with his arms shaking, flustered because his thoughts were revealed.
