Meng Li suppressed his nausea and sat helplessly in the passenger seat, with the night wind whistling by his ears as he chased the restrained black business car in front of him.
"Let me tell you, I'm not a drinker and I'm not a drinker. Zhuang Qingqing, should you reflect on yourself?"
Zhuang Qiqing didn't take Meng Li's words to heart at all and still chased the car in front of him with all his strength.
The car soon drove into a high-end community with strict security.
However, they were not allowed to enter or exit and were blocked by security guards.
"You're here and you don't have a house?" Seeing that he couldn't get in, Zhuang Qiqing then remembered that there was a young master beside him who was a prodigal and had properties all over the place.
Meng Li rolled his eyes: "No."
After saying that, Meng Li opened the car door and got out: "Zhuang Qingqing, I don't want to play with you anymore. Just wait here by yourself."
Then he opened the car door and walked into the night without looking back.
Zhuang Qiqing held the steering wheel tightly and was silent for a while, then reversed the car and caught up with Meng Li who was taking a taxi on the side of the road.
"Come up, I'll take you back."
Meng Li sneered and folded his arms: "Hey, what are we, Mr. Zhuang, thinking about?"
Zhuang Qiqing was frustrated at this time, and his temper was not good either. He said with a cold face: "I don't like to sit still."
After saying that, when he was about to start the car and leave, Meng Li quickly opened the door and got in: "Zhuang Laosan, I found that you are really boring and you can't even coax people?"
"No wonder Shen Tingci doesn't like you!"
Zhuang Qiqing turned the steering wheel with one hand and smiled coldly when he heard this: "You know how to coax people, why does Shen Yunxi like you again?"

"Meng Li and Zhuang Qingqing?" After Song Yanci finished listening to the private detective's report, he put down the phone with an ugly expression.
"When can I return to China?"
Upon hearing this, his companion hurried over: "No, no! Yun Xi said, you have to rest for a few days!"
Song Yanci was unwilling to stay any longer.
Shen Tingci doesn't know what kind of person Meng Li is. Doesn't he, as a young boy, not know?
He was afraid that if he went back too late, the little daughter-in-law he had raised would slap her butt and run away with other wild dogs.
Especially that dog, girls quite like it.
When Jiang Yunxi came in, she saw the ancestor sitting on the bed with an angry face, as if some rare treasure was about to be taken away.
Over the years, they had gone to school together. Although they were not very close friends, they could barely speak a few words. Song Yanci's appearance was really rare.
"Want to go back?"
"Yeah." Song Yanci responded with a cold face.
"Your illness is currently unstable and it is not suitable to go back." Jiang Yunxi said expressionlessly.
Song Yanci brushed the broken hair from his forehead, revealing his cold and indifferent fox eyes: "Ci Ci had dinner with Meng Li today and drank wine."
After the words fell, Jiang Yunxi's brows also wrinkled, and there was even an indescribable depression on his face.
"Huh? Ci Ci and Meng Li?"
"Um."
Jiang Yunxi's expression at this time was really not that good: "I'm going to apply for a route."

When Shen Tingci was brought home by Shen Shilan, she was almost half awake from the wine.
"Did brother buy a house in Imperial Capital?" Shen Tingci sat in the living room and looked around curiously.
Shen Shilan made a cup of honey water and handed it to her.
"Well, although the company's headquarters is in Shanghai, the focus of development over the years has always been in Imperial Capital, so I was transferred here by my father." Shen Shilan said, "Cici, I will be based in Imperial Capital in the future, or I
I’ll also buy you a suite in Imperial Capital, how about living next door to my brother?”
"In this way, you, me and Yun Xi, we brothers and sisters can live together."
"No, I have a house in Imperial Capital." Shen Tingci said obediently, "This has been the focus of my development in recent years. It would be inconvenient to live in a hotel without a house, so I bought one a few years ago."
"Why didn't you tell your brother? Just save the money you earned. Of course you have to do things like buy a house. Otherwise, why would I work so hard to make money?" Shen Shilan touched her head, "You Are you having fun today?"
"No." Shen Tingci shook his head, "If it's for socializing, my agent will follow me."
"Are you really going to socialize?" Unexpectedly, Shen Shilan's face immediately darkened as soon as he finished speaking.
"Brother, I'm already 23. Besides, it's normal to have social events and drinking parties. You can protect me now, but you can't protect me forever!"
Shen Shilan disagreed: "You have me now, a father, Xiaochuan, and Song Yanci in the future. If he can't even do such a small thing, is he worthy of marrying you?"
Listening to Shen Shilan's words, Shen Tingci felt in a trance for a while.
She raised her eyes and looked at Shen Shilan who was taking it for granted, and finally smiled softly: "Brother, you are making too much of a fuss. Socializing is just a matter of having a meal. Besides, we are all crew members. It would not be good if I do something special. ."
"My sister, Shen Shilan, the little princess of the Shen family, how can I be special?" Shen Shilan smiled fondly.
"Brother, where is your bathroom? I want to take off my makeup." Shen Tingci didn't want to say this, so she changed the topic and said, "I don't feel comfortable on my face."
Shen Shilan pointed in the direction.
After Shen Tingci left, the smile on Shen Shilan's face immediately faded.
"Zhi Qin, help me check someone out."
"Shen Tingci."
As soon as Shen Shilan hung up the phone, he heard another weak ringtone coming from the coffee table.
It's Shen Tingci's cell phone.
But when the call came, the name "Jiang Chen" was clearly written on it.
Shen Shilan looked back at the direction of the bathroom thoughtfully. After waiting for the third call tirelessly, Shen Shilan slowly answered the call.
As soon as the call was connected, Jiang Chen's extremely impatient voice came from the phone.
"Chen Tingci! Didn't I just ask you to buy me an apartment in the Imperial Capital? How about you negotiate terms with your mother? Are you so short of money? Also, I want a large flat within the third ring road, do you understand?"
"Jiang Chen, is this the way you talk to your sister?" Shen Shilan's cold voice suddenly sounded, "Why should Cici buy you a house?"
"Who are you!" The young man's arrogant voice did not restrain itself at all, "I am talking to Shen Tingci, do you have the right to interrupt?"
"I said, you can't be Shen Tingci's financial sponsor." The young man's bad voice continued, "Yes, with her vixen-like appearance..."
"I am Shen Shilan."
"Oh, Shen..." The young man's voice stopped suddenly. Even if the two families rarely met, Jiang Chen would always remember the scene when he first met Shen Shilan.
The young man, who was as old as his brother, stood at the door of the manor against the light. He was as dignified and indifferent as he had ever seen. It was also a world he had never set foot in.
"Brother Shen, I..."
"Jiang Chen." Shen Shilan restrained his irritability and said word by word, "In these years, we have not cared about you and Ci Ci's affairs because we think you are her family, but now It seems that the truth is not like this."
"No, Brother Shen, I just want to work in Imperial Capital and want my sister to buy me a house!" Jiang Chen said quickly, even wanting to make amends, but Shen Shilan didn't give him this chance.
Before he finished speaking, Shen Shilan hung up the phone.
He knew the password to Shen Tingci's cell phone.
After hesitating for a long time, Shen Shilan turned on Shen Tingci's phone and found Jiang Mu's WeChat account.
The mother and daughter seemed to have nothing to say. All they had was Shen Tingci's transfer records one after another, and the news that Jiang's mother wanted money.
Shen Shilan closed his eyes and took a deep breath, resisting his desire to smash the phone.
"Shen Tingci." Shen Shilan knocked on the bathroom door, his voice cold and hard, "Come out."
