Luo Chen had already arranged for people to do all the important things. He had nothing to do, so he went to convene the acquisition team led by Mu Binglan.
Because today is also a rest day during negotiations with Vista Group, they do not need to deal with Mu Binglan's absence from the negotiations yet.
Luo Chen met Mu Binglan's acquisition team in the conference room where she held a previous meeting.
The twelve people in the acquisition team have already received notification from Mu Tiancheng, and their next actions will follow Luo Chen's instructions.
Luo Chen asked the acquisition team how the negotiations were progressing.
The acquisition team told Luo Chen that Mushi Group has passed the first round of screening and entered the next round. The probability of successful acquisition is relatively high, but the overall progress is only nearly half, and it will take another week at the fastest.
time.
However, the acquisition team also expressed that if Mu Binglan is not here, they will lack some confidence in negotiations.
Luo Chen was confident that he could rescue Mu Binglan, so he asked the acquisition team to start tomorrow and continue to discuss the acquisition with Vista Group normally, so that Mu Binglan could take over directly after he comes back.
Most of the people in the acquisition team who had good personal relationships with Mu Binglan knew that Mu Binglan had been kidnapped, so at this moment, they approached Luo Chen to ask about the specific situation.
Luo Chen uniformly told the members of the acquisition team that Mu Binglan would be back soon and asked them not to worry.
After finishing the matter of acquiring the team, Luo Chen went back to the room.
Xu Xu was sitting in the room watching TV, and Luo Chen was also sitting on the sofa, waiting patiently.
Luo Chen can only wait for news now, whether it comes from Fang Yi, Xiao Tian or Bai Mian.
The afternoon was quite boring, even torturous. Luo Chen himself was okay and knew how to deal with it. However, he saw Xu Chen impatiently pressing the remote control to change channels. He seemed very unhappy because he was stuck in the room with nothing to do.
, so Luo Chen suggested to Xu Chen to go out for a walk.
After Xu Chen heard this, he immediately cheered.
It is still raining heavily outside, but because of the long and special rainy season in London, many ingenious designs have come into being. For example, the Corinthia Hotel has a dedicated garden for enjoying the rain scene.
Luo Chen and Xu Xu came to the Rain Garden.
Because of the terrorist incident that happened in Corinthia yesterday, the number of guests in the hotel has dropped sharply in the past two days. At this moment, there are only a few people in the garden in the rain, and they can be counted on one hand.
Luo Chen took Xu Chen and walked in the garden.
There are many walkways in the garden, but these walkways are made of glass. Walking on them, you can clearly see the heavy rain around you, as if you are in the rain, but you will not get wet by the rain.
Countless flower beds are separated by these walkways, and under the water of rain, the flowers in these flower beds are even more delicate and beautiful.
The rain hit the ground, the air was filled with the fragrance of earth, and the wind was cool. There were clearly high-rise buildings in front of them, but at this moment, in the rain and fog, they seemed to have turned into mountains. Luo Chen and Xu Chen felt
They came to a rural field, and this wonderful enjoyment made the two of them relax a lot after being dull for a long time.
It is also raining weather, but sitting in the room has a completely different feeling than being in the rain.
Along with the dripping sound of rain, Luo Chen's worries seemed to be washed away, and he felt extremely refreshed and comfortable at this moment.
The two of them had finished walking around every place in the garden. When they were about to leave, Luo Chen asked Xu Xu.
"How's it going? Isn't it much better than staying in the room?"
Xu Chen looked at the hazy rain scene and the colorful garden in front of her with some reluctance. She squeezed Luo Chen's hand and nodded.
"Well, it's very beautiful. I miss it when it rains in my hometown."
"Your hometown?"
Luo Chen was a little curious.
"Well, my hometown is in the south, and it often rains. When I was a child, whenever it rained, I would run out to see it. It was very beautiful."
After hearing this, Luo Chen did not leave in a hurry. He pulled Xu Chen to stop at the edge of the garden and looked at it for a while longer.
It was late in the evening before Luo Chen and Xu Xu left the Rain Garden. They went to the hotel restaurant to have something to eat.
Luo Chen and Xu Xu were seated next to the window. Through the window, they could coincidentally see the garden in the rain that they had just turned around.
While ordering, Luo Chen saw Xu Chen tilting her head and looking at the garden outside the window, looking a little sad.
Luo Chen finished ordering, handed the menu to the waiter, and then asked Xu Chen curiously.
"What's wrong? You don't seem happy?"
Xu Chen turned around and smiled.
"I'm not unhappy, I just think of the past."
Luo Chen shook the whiskey in his hand and took a sip. Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. Xu Chen seemed to have thought of some unpleasant memories, and Luo Chen had no intention of asking again.
The waiter brought the dishes, and Luo Chen and Xu Chen started eating one after another.
After dinner, it was already seven o'clock.
Luo Chen and Xu Chen went back to the room.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Zhou Mei also came back with good news.
After Zhou Mei walked into the room, she took off the black raincoat she was wearing and put it aside, and immediately reported the situation to Luo Chen.
"Boss, I found my sister-in-law, she is very good."
Although it was confirmed that the severed finger Bai Mian sent earlier was not Mu Binglan's, Luo Chen was still worried that Zhou Mei was not looking carefully.
"Did you see clearly?"
Zhou Mei nodded solemnly.
"Although I borrowed a telescope to look at it, I saw it very clearly. Except for my sister-in-law's complexion, she is completely intact."
Luo Chen breathed a long sigh of relief and repeated several sentences in succession, "That's good, that's good."
Zhou Mei continued.
"Then I also saw a Chinese man, about twenty-seven or eight years old, who went in to look for my sister-in-law. Through the words of my sister-in-law, I determined that the man was the Mu Shaopeng you told me about before, boss."
Mu Shaopeng!
When Luo Chen heard this name, his teeth itched with hatred. Being stabbed in the back by such a useless villain made Luo Chen extremely angry.
"What is he looking for Lan Lan for?"
Zhou Mei shook her head.
"I don't know exactly what he wanted to do. He just said a lot of bad things about you, boss, to my sister-in-law, as if he was showing off his power. Later, in order to avoid disturbing the situation, I withdrew."
Luo Chen sneered in his heart.
Mu Shaopeng must have known that he was nothing in front of him, so he could only vent his anger and dissatisfaction with himself in this way.
But for Mu Shaopeng, Luo Chen had no intention of just hating him in his heart and settling the matter.
For this kind of person, Luo Chen felt that immortality was not enough to vent his hatred. Mu Shaopeng was also Fang Shiyao's illegitimate son anyway. Even if he died, he would have nothing to do with the Mu family. At the same time, it could dampen Fang Shiyao's spirit.
"Well done, thank you for your hard work, Zhou Mei."
Zhou Mei smiled.
"Boss, you're welcome. This is not a trivial matter. Do you have any other instructions?"
Luo Chen shook his head, there was nothing to do now.
At the same time, considering that Zhou Mei came over overnight and was immediately sent to Keel Manor to inquire about information, Luo Chen didn't even have time to rest, so Luo Chen asked Zhou Mei to rest in Xu Chen's room.
