Chapter 341 - 341: Be Careful



Zhao Wu had finally convinced Bai Ling to spend the New Year with him this year. The two of them strolled through the supermarket, their faces filled with joy as they shopped for New Year decorations. Bai Ling even excitedly picked out couplets and lanterns.

“Bai Ling, why do you look so youthful?” Zhao Wu smiled, his voice filled with affection. “These lanterns are even taller than mine, and there are so many small ones. My modest villa is turning into a lantern emporium.”

Bai Ling blushed, her expression radiating with lively enthusiasm. “Back in our hometown, this is how we celebrated the New Year. It’s the only way to capture that authentic homey feeling.”

“The smell of home?”

An unexpected female voice interrupted their moment. A shiver ran down Zhao Wu’s spine.

He turned his head slowly, his eyes falling on Zhao Jiao, who was seated on the living room sofa, cradling her cat. Beside her were Shen Jun and Shen Mo, both carrying suitcases.

Zhao Jiao cast a quick, appraising glance at Bai Ling. She found her quite charming and adorable, exuding an air of innocence.

Bai Ling couldn’t help but feel a sense of unease under Zhao Jiao’s scrutinizing gaze. She didn’t know who this woman was, but she had heard that Zhao Wu often changed girlfriends.She was already someone who had been with him for an extended period.

The woman before her appeared sophisticated and well-groomed, and Shen Jun seemed to be familiar with her. Bai Ling took a deep breath and considered that this woman might be someone whom Zhao Wu’s family approved of.

“I, um, I have something I need to attend to. I’ll go now,” Bai Ling hastily placed the items she was holding back and turned to leave.

However, Zhao Jiao seemed to be in the mood to playact. “Where are you going? Didn’t you mention that this place reminds you of home?”

She continued to eye Bai Ling critically. “Tsk tsk, I wonder whose home it’s reminding you of here.”

“Mom!”

“Sis!”

Upon hearing Zhao Jiao’s words, Shen Jun and Zhao Wu chimed in, protesting in unison.

Bai Ling was left dumbfounded by the way they addressed her. She stammered, trying to make sense of it all. “Mom? No, sister? This…”

Her face was now a deep shade of red. Although Bai Ling had heard about Zhao Wu having an older brother and sister, she had always considered herself as just one of Zhao Wu’s many girlfriends. It had never occurred to her to inquire about his family, given the transitory nature of their relationship.

Observing her brother’s anxious expression, Zhao Jiao was in high spirits. She promptly rose from her seat and took Bai Ling by the arm. “If 1 had a beautiful daughter like you, I’d be over the moon. Unlike my son, who only knows how to get on my nerves!”

With that statement, she cast a disapproving glance in Shen Jun’s direction. “Hurry up and take the things upstairs. Zhao Wu, find us a room quickly. I’ve only been here twice, so I don’t want to just stay anywhere.”

In his heart, Zhao Wu rolled his eyes countless times. He thought to himself, “Big sister, you’re hesitant to stay here casually? But you didn’t even tell me, and you just showed up unannounced!”

Seeing Zhao Wu’s reluctance to move, Zhao Jiao grew impatient. “Get going! If I’d known I’d be waiting for you, I could’ve filmed an entire movie by now! Move it!”

Zhao Wu muttered softly, “How do you even know the passcode? You’re trespassing on private property, and you’re so arrogant.”

Nevertheless, Zhao Jiao caught wind of his muttering and promptly smacked his head. She retorted, “You’re the one who gave Shen Jun the passcode. I’m your sister. Why would I be trespassing?”

“Zhao Jiao!” Zhao Wu’s face turned crimson. After all, he held the position of deputy secretary of the mayor, and this was happening right in front of his girlfriend. Zhao Jiao was clearly not concerned about his reputation.

But Zhao Jiao simply pursed her lips and retorted, “I’m here. Now, hurry up and get moving!”

Zhao Wu scrutinized his sister for a few seconds before finally giving in. His sister was known to be obstinate and unreasonable at home and spoiled by her husband. He couldn’t compete with her.

As Zhao Wu left with the box and shot Bai Ling a resentful glance, Bai Ling couldn’t help but be amused.

The three unfortunate men proceeded to lug the boxes into the room. It was only then that Zhao Wu had a moment to inquire about the “military intelligence” from Shen Jun.

Shen Jun provided a brief summary of Wen Nian’s family situation. The more Zhao Wu heard, the deeper he frowned. “The Wei family wields considerable influence in Hai City. The government has to be careful around them. If this incident truly involves their family, it won’t be easy to investigate, especially considering it’s almost the New Year.”

Shen Jun nodded and shared Wen Nian’s suspicions. “Wen Nian believes that Wei Xiao might be behind this. Do you have any means to investigate him?” “Wei Xiao?” Zhao Wu found it unlikely. “He doesn’t hold any significant position within the Wei Corporation and lacks social status. Does Wen Nian have any concrete evidence to support her suspicion?”

Shen Jun remained reticent. He had faith in Wen Nian, but there were certain things she hadn’t disclosed to him.

Zhao Wu contemplated the situation for a moment before suggesting, “When are you planning to meet with Wen Nian? I can have a few of my people accompany you. With my team present, the Wei family will be less likely to make any rash moves. I’ll handle the rest of the investigation. After all, the two of you are still students. It’s essential to be cautious..”
