Chapter 328 Returning to the Li Family
"Are you going out?"
Li Chenxu nodded, his expression somewhat serious. He knew he had promised Mu Xiaoyu not to go out for the next couple of days. However, only he knew where that document was, and he didn't trust anyone else to go with it.
So when Li Chenxu heard Mu Xiaoyu's words, he was about to explain when Mu Xiaoyu put on a coat, looking like she was about to go out with him.
"Weren't we going out?"
"You want to come with me?"
"Isn't it okay?"
Mu Xiaoyu stood beside Li Chenxu, looking at him with a puzzled expression. Although Li Chenxu's cold was mostly better, she was still worried and didn't want to see him so weak again.
Li Chenxu shook his head, chuckled, then took Mu Xiaoyu's hand and led her to the Li family home.
It was getting late. Li Chenxu hadn't told anyone in the Li family when he went there, so when he arrived with Mu Xiaoyu, the once lively Li family fell silent.
Seeing this, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but laugh. In front of Grandpa Li and the others, she directly pulled Li Chenxu's hand and said with a smile, "Brother Chenxu, when Dad came to see me before, he said he wouldn't interfere in our affairs anymore. But now it seems Dad still doesn't welcome me coming over, does he?"
Upon hearing this, the expressions on the faces of the Li family members became quite interesting.
Mu Xiaoyu didn't actually intend to cause trouble; it was just that Old Master Li had brought it up himself. If she hadn't come today, it wouldn't have mattered. But since she was here today, she couldn't just swallow her anger for Li Chenxu like before.
Li Chenxu seemed somewhat surprised that Mu Xiaoyu would bring these things up. He paused for a second, then smiled, took Mu Xiaoyu's hand, and echoed, "Dad, once you've said something, you should keep your word."
"When have I ever broken my promise!"
Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu's words immediately made Old Master Li's face turn ugly, and he immediately retorted sharply.
After saying this, he looked at Mu Xiaoyu with a stern face, and finally asked Li Chenxu, "You came back so late without saying hello. Did something happen?"
The Li family members in the living room right now, even though they are all family, it doesn't mean they are all of one mind. Someone as energetic as Li Chenxu would never reveal the purpose of his late return in front of so many people. Hearing this, he simply hummed softly and then said in a low voice, "There are some things."
After saying that, he pulled Mu Xiaoyu upstairs.
Looking at Li Chenxu's expression, Old Master Li's eyes flickered slightly. Whether he thought of something or for some other reason, he did not stop Li Chenxu. Instead, he said to everyone in the living room, "It's getting late. Go back and rest."
Once he spoke, the others naturally didn't linger, and soon they dispersed.
Meanwhile, in the bedroom, Li Chenxu found the information he had used to investigate Lin Zhu.
Almost ten years have passed, but fortunately, the data was well preserved and is basically undamaged.
"Why don't we stay here tonight and go back tomorrow? If we go back now, people will definitely suspect something."
Seeing Li Chenxu looking at the documents in his hand, Mu Xiaoyu thought for a moment and finally said to Li Chenxu.
Upon hearing this, Li Chenxu looked up at Mu Xiaoyu, chuckled, and then took Mu Xiaoyu's hand and kissed it: "That's what I was planning to do too, but we came back so suddenly that we didn't bring back a lot of things. You'll have to make do with this tonight."
"I'm not that delicate."
Mu Xiaoyu muttered to herself, then, as if remembering something, quickly asked, "How is it? Is there anything wrong with Assistant Lin's information?"
Upon mentioning Lin Zhu, Li Chenxu's expression softened slightly. He remained silent for a few seconds before finally saying, "On the surface, there seems to be no problem. However, before I sponsored Lin Qing, someone else had already sponsored him."
"Has anyone sponsored you?"
Li Chenxu nodded: "However, it wasn't written on it. When I sponsored Lin Qing, I didn't expect him to be of use to me later, so I didn't look at these things carefully when I was investigating. But now it seems that these things need to be investigated more thoroughly."
As he spoke, Li Chenxu looked at Mu Xiaoyu and said, "Xiaoyu, you go and rest first. I need to contact Bai Ye now and tell him about this."
“Brother Shenxu, I think if you want to investigate the person who investigated Assistant Lin before, you’d better investigate him yourself.”
"Why do you say that suddenly?"
Li Chenxu was somewhat surprised. Mu Xiaoyu was not good at the scheming and intrigue in the business world, so she had never said anything about these things before. This was the first time she had said such a thing.
“If Assistant Lin really was involved in these incidents, then Mr. Bai’s side must have been monitoring him as well. Right now, the enemy is in the shadows while we are in the open. If Mr. Bai goes to investigate at this time, most of those people’s attention will be on Mr. Bai. If you go to investigate at this time, it will be better for you than for Mr. Bai.”
Li Chenxu was a smart man; he understood that Mu Xiaoyu's words were only hints and left unsaid.
"You're right. I've been so busy lately that I didn't even think of such a simple thing. Luckily, you're here for me."
"Alright, you've already said it's so simple. If I can think of it, you definitely can too. Don't overthink it. Just get these arrangements sorted out first, and then get some rest. Your cold isn't completely gone yet, so getting some rest is good for your health."
Upon hearing this, Li Chenxu softly hummed in agreement, kissed Mu Xiaoyu's forehead, and then left the room without saying anything more, going directly to the study.
I should definitely talk to Old Master Li about what happened today. Actually, some things could be handled by Old Master Li's people. Although Assistant Lin has been with Li Chenxu for a long time, he hasn't been with Old Master Li, so he doesn't know much about the situation at the Li family's main residence.
If Old Master Li knew about this and got involved, it would probably be better than if they investigated it themselves.
When Li Chenxu went to the study, Old Master Li was already there. Although Old Master Li and Mu Xiaoyu always seemed to be arguing, Old Master Li had made great contributions to the development of the Li family to this day.
How could someone like that not notice that something was wrong with Li Chenxu at that time?
Now that Li Chenxu has entered, Old Master Li is not in a hurry to ask him what happened. Seeing him come in, he simply asks in a calm voice, "Have you found the things?"
