Chapter 69: Dyed Black (Part 1)

It was late at night, Ji Qing was holding a cup of hot water, standing at the door of her father's study with a complaining look on her face.

Tonight, her father also received an invitation to the charity dinner, but he did not attend. Ji Qing wanted to go because Gene also went, and took Le Xiao with him.

Dong Dong Dong

"Come in."

It was still the same cold voice. After Ji Qing walked in, Ji Mo hurriedly closed a pile of information, and then said with a smile.

"Qingqing, why don't you sleep so late? Go to bed quickly, you have to go to school tomorrow."

Both parents were busy with work. Ji Qing hadn't seen her mother for almost a week, and her parents' relationship had always been bad. Ji Qing didn't understand it very well before, but when she grew up, she realized that her parents' union was just a transaction of power and money.

Parents who seemed to be in harmony and love on the surface, but the relationship between the two sides was cold behind the scenes. Ji Qing knew everything, but her parents always treated her as a child.

"Dad, what have you been doing recently?"

Ji Mo's face was a little cold after his daughter's words, but he soon got up and pushed Ji Qing's back.

"Children should not talk too much about adult matters. Go to bed quickly."

Ji Qing originally planned to leave, but her father always looked tired recently, and seemed to have some troubles hidden in his heart alone, and often did not go home.

"Dad, I think if you encounter any difficulties at work, you should talk to Uncle Gene. Isn't he your best friend?"

Ji Mo smiled gently, hugged his daughter, and patted her head.

"If there is really a difficult problem, I will tell Gene."

After his daughter left, Ji Mo sat at the desk with a serious expression and sharp and steady eyes.

"Because Gene is Dad's best friend, Dad can't tell him!"

Business activities are the most important part of human society. There are too many problems and are delicate and sensitive. Ji Mo has been serving as a member of Congress for a long time. The reason why he came to the Business Department is that he felt the time was ripe.

Looking at the handwritten business records on the table, there are the words of Sanlian Company. This is what Ji Mo copied privately using his position. He has been in contact with Sanlian Company for a long time and helped them a lot in secret.

Ji Mo took off his glasses and pressed the middle of his eye sockets. Congress has been in turmoil recently. Section 2 has not spoken yet, but Ji Mo knows very well that there will be big moves soon.

The issue of food safety cannot be settled in a day or two. The three founders of Sanlian Company have left Brilliant City. This is what Ji Mo is most relieved about. He was still uneasy at first, but he didn't expect that with Gene's intervention, the three guys were able to leave.

"Sorry, Gene, you can't intervene this time."

Over the years, Ji Mo has been approaching the core of the transaction with the consortium little by little. Now time is running out, and he must race against time to use everything he can to peel off what he has been trying to find for many years.

At this moment, Ji Mo's heart is extremely entangled. He really wants to find Gene and tell him everything, but if he really does that, Gene may become a public enemy. Such a burden is too heavy.

Knowing Gene's character, Ji Mo is unwilling to let his friend dye his hair black, because he has already dyed his hair black, and now the one he is most worried about is his daughter.

Beep beep

Ji Mo dialed the light and shadow phone number, 00002. Looking at the phone number, Ji Mo's hands trembled slightly, and a sad look appeared on his face, but he still answered the phone.

"What's wrong? Chief Mo Xiaolan, why are you calling me so late?"

"You bastard, are you worthy of Gene? Go find Gene before the situation develops to an irreversible state."

Ji Mo smiled slightly, quickly took out all the information in the drawer, put it in his own light and shadow storage box, and then turned on the personal computer and began to destroy the data on it.

"Sorry, I don't know what you are talking about?"

"Asshole, you ask knowingly, if I had known you were such a guy, I would..."

Beep

Ji Mo hung up the phone, turned around, opened the door with a serious face, and went downstairs quickly. When he arrived at the door, Ji Qing looked at his anxious father in surprise.

"Dad, why are you so late at night?"

Ji Mo squatted in front of his daughter, staring at her with a serious look.

"Listen, Xiaoqing, no matter what happens next, you must be strong. Remember to tell your mother that I owe her a lot. Also, if anything happens, call Gene. He is the only person you can trust and can help you."

Ji Mo was about to leave when his daughter grabbed his arm.

"Dad, tell me what happened? Call Uncle Gene, he..."

Bang

Ji Qing felt a blow on the back of her head and gradually lost consciousness. Ji Mo carried his daughter into the house, covered her with a quilt, and grabbed her hands.

"Sorry, Xiaoqing."

"I can really do that."

Gene sat on the chair and nodded with a smile.

"There are bathing facilities in the room. It's 1 a.m., go to bed quickly!"

Gene said, and Le Xiao blushed and nodded. Although her ankle was still a little painful, it was no big deal.

Gene still helped Le Xiao up, helped her into the guest room, and left after getting her a bathtub.

Le Xiao smiled and lay on the soft bed first. All the wonderful memories of tonight made her very happy.

“I wish I could be this happy every day.”

Gene lit a cigarette outside the house. He was in a good mood tonight. He had received at least 200 votes. There were still more than three months until the city meeting on December 31st. He was determined to get 80% of the voter turnout.

Beep beep

Gene glanced at the phone. Mo Xiaolan called at this time. Gene didn't want to answer it, but suddenly he saw a message.

Ji Mo was dark.

"What do you mean?"

"Literally."

After a while, a file was sent to Gene's mobile phone.

"Take a good look at the investigation file. I didn't wrongly accuse anyone, nor did I deliberately discredit anyone. Now the people from Section 2 have gone to Ji Mo's house, and Sections 5 and 3 have also begun to assist in arresting relevant personnel. About 132 congressmen were involved in this riot, and they are all Ji Mo's men."

Gene widened his eyes in shock, looking at the orange file on the light and shadow screen displayed on the mobile phone, and his hand holding the cigarette trembled slightly.

"Please, Xiaolan, don't arrest him in front of his daughter. I will read the documents."

"I understand. Gene, please don't mix personal feelings. You are not that kind of man. This matter is fully under the responsibility of our 2nd Division. Now we have to eliminate all unrest in the city!"
