Exclusive Pampered Wife: My Wife Came to My Door

Chapter 309 Old Friend

"Shili, you are a good girl. Whoever marries you will be very lucky," said Chi's mother, holding her hand.

Tong Shili smiled politely: "Xiao Ran and Zuo Zuo are truly virtuous wives and loving mothers. Godmother is so lucky to have such daughters and daughters-in-law."

Mother Chi laughed heartily: "Yes, yes, they are all good children. And Yutong, she should also get married to Yaoyuan as soon as possible. Although I am not Yaoyuan's mother, I have watched him grow up. I am also anxious if he doesn't get married."

Lu Yuanyao smiled and said, "It all depends on fate; we can't rush it."

"What do you mean by fate? Yutong is your destiny, so don't you dare mess with me. If you dare to bully my goddaughter, I'll tell your mother," Mrs. Chi threatened.

The road was long and I was speechless for a while.

Everyone was speculating about Chi's mother's intentions, and no matter how they speculated, it felt like inviting a wolf into the house.

Chi Ran spoke first: "Mom, since you've made up your mind, then that's settled. Zhi Tu and I have something to do, so we'll be leaving now." As he spoke, he tugged at Lu Zhi Tu.

Lu Zhitu was taken aback for a moment, then quickly cooperated, "Yes, something came up at home, Mom, we'll be going now."

Lu Yaoyuan stood up and said, "Something happened at home, how could you not tell me? Take me with you!" After saying that, he ran off in a flash.

Only Yan Zuozuo and her husband, along with their two goddaughters, remained in the living room. Chi's mother was also a little displeased, her gaze falling on Chi Moqing. "The Lu family has something going on; aren't you going out to help your sister?"

Chi Moqing smiled faintly, picked up Yan Zuozuo, and amidst the stunned silence of the others, raised the corner of his mouth, "Congratulations, Mom, on gaining two more goddaughters. We'll head back now."

The moment they stepped out of the house, Chi Moqing's expression changed instantly. Yan Zuozuo sensed his anger and obediently stayed in his arms, remaining silent. When they arrived at the garage, they saw the three people waiting there.

Chi Moqing said, "Let's find a place to sit down and talk."

Soon, they drove to a coffee shop. Chi Moqing ordered coffee and snacks for Yan Zuozuo and Chi Ran, his expression serious.

Lu Zhitu asked, "What are your thoughts?"

Chi Moqing paused for a moment and said, "If I'm not mistaken, Tong Shili is probably about to make her move. Last time, J-Master didn't succeed, so it seems she'll be more cautious. Everyone, be careful."

Lu Zhitu and the others only heard about it after Chi Moqing experienced J's sneak attack. Now that they heard him mention J again, they couldn't help but worry even more. "What exactly is Tong Shili's purpose in getting close to Auntie?"

Lu Yaoyuan pursed his lips: "To cause chaos and turmoil in the Chi family's backyard?"

Chi Ran pondered for a moment, stirred the coffee in her cup, and asked Yan Zuozuo for her opinion. Yan Zuozuo, who had been silent until now, sighed slightly, "The possibility of sowing discord is very high, but I don't think it's just about me and Mo Qing. Perhaps... there's a bigger conspiracy involved."

“That makes sense.” Lu Yaoyuan stroked his chin. “Then what about Song Yutong… Oh, why did you hit me?” He touched his head and yelled at Chi Ran.

Chi Ran rolled her eyes: "What do you think? My mom is just worried that you'll be all alone and carefree your whole life, so she's just making up an excuse for you to take responsibility for Song Yutong. Honestly, you're so old, and you still make people worry."

"..." Lu Yaoyuan's lips twitched, and he muttered to himself, "Is it wrong for me not to want to get married?" It's bound to snow in June.

"What do you think?" Chi Ran snorted coldly.

"I did nothing wrong. I just wanted to stay single for a couple more years. Look at you poor souls who are heading into the grave of marriage. Tsk tsk, you're not as carefree and free as me."

"A relationship that isn't aimed at marriage is just playing around!"

"Who am I dating? Don't accuse me wrongly, I..."

"Alright, you two stop bickering. The most important thing now is Tong Shili. Be careful in the future. Since she's set her sights on the Chi family, we're all in cahoots." Lu Zhitu spoke, looking at Chi Moqing for a while before asking, "What are your plans?"

Chi Moqing took a sip of coffee and said slowly, "I've already had someone follow her. Let's see what happens."

"That's right, this is the only way now."

Back home, Chi Moqing seemed still angry about her mother's actions that day, and remained silent, but the massage she gave Yan Zuozuo was very gentle.

Yan Zuozuo took her hand, turned to look at him, and reached out to touch his furrowed brows. "Don't be angry. Mom is just lonely and wanted to talk to someone. She doesn't know Tong Shili's identity. You can't blame her for that."

Chi Moqing placed her hand on his chest, took a deep breath, and looked at her intently. "Wife, you don't need to comfort me. It's my fault. I made you suffer today."

Yan Zuozuo shrugged: "No, it's true that we don't have time to spend with Mom. She used to take care of the kids, but now that they're with us, of course she gets lonely."

Although her mother's words today embarrassed her, she could understand. After all, her mother's only sister was in this state because of her, so it was understandable that her mother would blame her.

Chi Moqing hugged her tightly: "I will handle Mom's matter."

Yan Zuozuo smiled and put her arm around his waist: "You mustn't argue with Mom, otherwise I won't be able to get along with her in the future."

"I know, I'll be fine..." Chi Moqing hadn't finished speaking when his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and frowned. Seeing that he hadn't answered, Yan Zuozuo asked curiously, "Is it inconvenient? I'm going out..."

"No." Chi Moqing picked up the phone and answered, "Third Young Master Ou, what do you need me for?"

"Do you have time to come out and have a couple of drinks with me?"

"Now?" Chi Moqing glanced at the time, wanting to refuse. But before he could speak, he heard Ou Luhan say, "Xianglige Bar, I'll be waiting for you."

Chi Moqing stared at the disconnected phone, pondered for a moment, then turned to Yan Zuozuo and said, "Wait for me at home. I have something to do and need to go out. I'll be back soon."

Yan Zuozuo asked with some worry, "Has something happened?"

Chi Moqing smiled and touched her face: "It's okay. Young Master Ou is looking for me. He's probably heartbroken. I'll go have a couple of drinks with him."

Yan Zuozuo couldn't help but laugh: "You're cursing Young Master Ou like that, be careful he doesn't retaliate."

"He wouldn't dare!" Chi Moqing finished dressing, kissed Yan Zuozuo on the forehead, and turned to walk outside.

As soon as Chi Moqing entered the bar, he saw Ou Luhan sitting at the bar, flirting with a beautiful woman. He raised an eyebrow. This guy was saying sweet words to Shang Xiaoruo one minute and then flirting with a hot girl the next. He really is a leopard that can't change its spots.

Upon seeing Chi Moqing arrive, Ou Luhan dismissed the hot girl and chuckled, "I'm just too charming; everyone loves me wherever I go."

Chi Moqing glanced at him, not even bothering to complain. She ordered a drink, clinked glasses with him, and said, "So, what brings you here so late?"

"Tsk! Aren't you in such a hurry? Haven't you heard the old saying, 'Haste makes waste'? Have three drinks with me first." With that, Ou Luhan downed her drink in one gulp.

Chi Moqing took a sip of wine and looked at him with a half-smile, "So you really did get dumped by a woman?"

"Stop jinxing me! Who do you think I am, Third Young Master Ou? I'm the only one who dumps women. What woman would be willing to dump me?" Ou Luhan glared at him, but soon became distressed. "Why are women so troublesome? They get angry at the drop of a hat. If it weren't for my pitiful attitude towards her, I wouldn't bother to coax her. She's just taking advantage of my kindness. It's simply... simply unforgivable!"

Judging from this, he was bullied by Shang Xiaoruo. I never thought that Young Master Ou would have this day.

Chi Moqing was in a good mood as he drank his wine. He didn't say anything, just waited for Ou Luhan to finish complaining before getting down to business.

After talking for a long time, Ou Luhan didn't get a single response from Chi Moqing, so she started to nitpick and complain, "What's wrong with you? Do you still want the intelligence? Why are you being so uncooperative!"

Chi Moqing glanced at him: "Are you sure you need me to be merciless in my criticism?"

Ou Luhan choked, her teeth clenched in hatred.

"Speak, what reliable information did you summon me for?" Chi Moqing asked considerately after he finished speaking.

Ou Luhan rolled her eyes and said haughtily, "I can't be your best friend anymore. I'm in a bad mood right now and I don't want to say anything."

Chi Moqing didn't waste any words and turned to leave.

Ou Luhan was stunned: "Holy crap! Is it really that straightforward? You surnamed Chi, you stop right there!"

Chi Moqing turned his head and asked in a calm voice, "Are you in the mood now?"

Ou Luhan wanted to kill someone, especially that guy named Chi Moqing!

The information he received was that J's target in S City this time was Chi Moqing, and he heard that he also brought an old acquaintance with him, female!

Chi Moqing was taken aback. A charming figure flashed through her mind, but it was only a fleeting thought before she quickly regained her composure.

Seeing his expression, Ou Luhan raised her chin and asked, "Do you know who it is?"

Chi Moqing pursed his lips and took a big gulp of wine. "I roughly know."

"An old flame?" Ou Luhan immediately became interested.

Chi Moqing ignored him, put the two hundred yuan on the bar, and said, "Thank you for your kind gift!"

Ou Luhan was completely dumbfounded. He had risked his life for him, and all he was worth was two hundred yuan? Was his love too cheap? She refused to accept it!

He immediately chased after him, stopping him before Chi Moqing could get into the car. "Hey, I haven't finished speaking yet. Don't you want to know more details?"

Chi Moqing's lips twitched: "What else?"

Ou Luhan looked around, then suddenly leaned close to Chi Moqing and whispered, "This involves a wide range of people. I heard that Master J's influence is closely linked to certain royal relatives. He came here to take you down. Be careful."

Chi Moqing patted his shoulder: "Thanks."

He turned his head, just about to get into the car, when suddenly a blinding light flashed by...

"Oh!"

Inside the villa, Yan Zuo waited and waited, but Chi Moqing didn't return. She thought carefully about his expression when he left and felt something was off. It wasn't that she was being paranoid; they were at a crucial time regarding Master J, and she was worried about any slight disturbance.

She glanced at the time; it was almost ten o'clock. She had been gone for two hours, so why hadn't she come back yet?

She was getting impatient, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, intently watching the way back. Suddenly her phone rang. Thinking it was Chi Moqing, she quickly answered, "Husband..."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone before someone finally spoke, "I really want to agree, but I don't know if I'll even live to see tomorrow."

"..." Yan Zuozuo's lips twitched: "Stephen? What do you want from me so late?"

Stephen's voice suddenly turned aggrieved: "Zuo Zuo, we're friends, right?"

Yan Zuozuo was taken aback, somewhat wary. "What do you want to say?"

"Shouldn't true friends go to great lengths for each other?"

Yan Zuozuo asked helplessly, "What exactly are you trying to say?"

"I'm at the police station, come and bail me out!"

"!!!" Yan Zuozuo was completely speechless.
