Chapter 329
At half past five in the evening, a group of people arrived at Shang's old house.
Li Qiao was wearing a light gray casual suit, and that champagne dress was changed after all.
She rolled up her sleeves to the top of her forearm, holding the phone in one hand, and walked beside Shang Yu.
The two had similar temperaments and walked in unison, with Liuyun and Luoyu following behind, while Mochizuki, who was injured, stayed in the manor to recuperate.
It is said that tonight's family dinner, the whole family came.
Not long after, Steward Xiao led the two of them to the independent reception room in the back hall.
On the first two chairs, there are also chairs and tea tables on the left and right sides. The style is similar to the living room in the early years.
"Eldest young master, Miss Li, both of you take a short rest first, sir will come over soon."
Shang Yu nodded to Steward Xiao, and after he left, Li Qiao sat in the teacher's chair and took a sip of the tea on the table.
Tonight, all members of the Shang clan came, it was really a huge family feast.
In less than a minute, there was the sound of unhurried footsteps outside the door.
Li Qiao followed the sound and saw that the setting sun was already setting outside the main room. Shang Zonghai walked in wearing a light brown Tang suit against the light.
Every time she meets Shang Zonghai, Li Qiao will cheer up 120,000 points.
Out of politeness, she leaned on the armrest to get up, but Shang Zonghai raised his hand and pressed his wrist, "Little girl, sit down, my family is welcome."
Li Qiao nodded and sat upright, acting as a quail without saying a word.
Shang Zonghai walked up to the front and sat down slowly, took the tureen cup from the servant, lifted the lid of the cup with the bottom holder and sniffed it, looked at Shang Yu and asked: "Two days ago, the eight families Something happened over there, did you do it?"
Shang Yu leaned on the armrest, his legs spread apart, and his posture was casual and unrestrained.
He raised his eyelids to meet Shang Shang Zonghai's gaze, and raised his eyebrows: "Did they sue you?"
Upon hearing this, Shang Zonghai knew that it was definitely related to him.
Shang Zonghai blew on the heat from the teacup and took a sip of the tea, "The Eight Family are too busy to take care of themselves now, so how can they find time to complain to me.
It was the Presbyterian Church who got the news. They investigated a lot of details in the past two days and suspected that you did it. "
"Well, you're right to be suspicious." Shang Yuyun responded in a calm tone, pressing the corner of his lower lip unrulyly.
Shang Zonghai stared blankly, "You are not afraid of being held accountable by the Elder Hall."
Hearing the sound, Li Qiao's slightly lowered gaze flashed across a stream of light, Shang's Presbyterian Hall.
She has seen the family tree structure of the Shang family, and the status of the Presbyterian Hall is basically equal to that of Shang Zonghai.
For generations, everyone has the habit of setting up elder halls, which are mostly used to regulate and supervise every move of the head of the family and the whole family.
And Shang Zonghai's words just now are enough to reflect the power and status of the Presbyterian Church in the Shang family.
Li Qiao was deep in thought, and took a few sips absently with her teacup.
At this time, Shang Yu bent his long legs and slowly put them together. He rubbed his fingertips, his voice was thick and low, "Then I also want to ask, who gave Bajia the courage to touch my Qiaoqiao?"
Hearing this, the teacup in Shang Zonghai's hand shook suddenly, and the lid of the cup fell on the rim crisply, and asked in a slow and heavy tone: "What did you say?"
Li Qiao's heart felt hot for no reason, and she curled her fingers involuntarily.
After knowing each other for so long, it was the first time she heard this name from Shang Yu.
It's not Qiaoqiao, it's not Li Qiao, and it's not a good girl, but... my Qiaoqiao.
When the man's deep and mellow voice pronounced her name, it was like a feather gently passing through the atrium, with a numb feeling.
Shang Zonghai casually put the teacup on the table, his usually moody and indifferent cheeks showed obvious sullenness.
He looked at Li Qiao and sized her up carefully, "Girl, are you not hurt?"
Li Qiao shook her head innocently, glanced at Shang Yu, and replied, "No, don't worry."
Shang Zonghai breathed a sigh of relief, and then called out to the door: "Old Xiao."
Steward Xiao walked in in response, "Sir, please tell me."
Shang Zonghai's eyes lingered on Li Qiao and Shang Yu for a few seconds, then narrowed his eyes for a moment, and said in a cool tone: "After the clan meeting ends tomorrow, the eight collateral families will be removed from the Shang family tree, and we will publish it in the newspaper the day after tomorrow. The reason for delisting is to cut corners in drug research and development, which is a disgrace to the reputation of the medical family."
Butler Xiao was startled, then quickly lowered his eyebrows and nodded, "Yes, sir, I'll do it now."
Not only Housekeeper Xiao was surprised, but also Liu Yun and Luo Yu who accompanied him were also surprised.
The head of the family is defending Miss Li, or is deliberately partial.
In recent years, the relationship between the collateral family and the main family has been in dire straits, with constant internal strife, but he has never been seen to take the initiative to intervene.
Even the eldest brother Shang Yu and the younger brother Shang Lu could not get Shang Zong Haiming's face-saving protection.
Because no matter openly or secretly, the strong must win.
However, Miss Li's appearance broke this balance every minute.
Shang Zonghai picked up his teacup again, looked at Li Qiao with gentle eyes, and said with a kind smile, "Girl, don't be afraid if something happens, uncle will make the decision for you."
Li Qiao lowered her head as if flattered, and thanked her, but her eyes were full of complexity.
It was so unexpected.
...
Meanwhile, Pepper Foot Manor.
Since Li Qiao and Shang Yu returned to the old house, Shen Qingye dragged Bailu back to wander around the manor in a bored manner.
He paced around boredly, and after a while, he suggested: "There's nothing to do tonight, you can find a bar, and let's go out and relax."
Bailu responded, took out his mobile phone and began to search for the addresses of the more famous bars in Palma.
Shen Qingye took another two steps forward, and the phone in his pocket rang in due time.
He looked at the screen, the blank number displayed, and he knew who it was without thinking.
Shen Qingye held up the phone with one hand to answer it, and carefully put the other hand in his pocket to prevent himself from circling around with one hand again.
"Hello, Dad."
On the other end of the phone, his father's vicissitudes but steady voice came, "Have you found the person who posted the transaction post on the black market before?"
Shen Qingye was stunned for a while, "Why? You didn't tell me too much about the female stock god, so are you still planning to let me chase the trading post back?"
"Chasing a fart." Through the receiver, his father scolded angrily, and then ordered: "I have asked someone to delete that post in the background. No matter who the other party is, from now on, the black market website prohibits anyone from launching an investigation into the goddess of stocks." post, you should handle this matter yourself, and go back to the Sixth Bureau immediately after finishing it."
Shen Qingye glanced at the phone screen in confusion, "No, Dad, what do you mean? Maybe he was just curious, so he posted a transaction post, as for..."
Before the words were finished, the other party demanded in a serious tone: "Stop talking nonsense, and you will report back to the Sixth Bureau at the latest tomorrow afternoon."
After all, the phone hung up.
Shen Qingye was confused, but also felt that things were not that simple.
The black market trading website has never restricted any intelligence content, so why did it suddenly prohibit transactions related to the female stock god?
