Chapter 1458: Chapter 1458: Hired Murder
“You’ll get a chance to et her.”
“How do you know such an impressive policewoman?” Xu Chaomu asked.
“I know a lot of people. Do you want to know about each one?” Shen Chi raised an eyebrow.
Seeing Xu Chaomu silent, Shen Chi pulled her into his arms, “No matter how many people I know, you’re the only one I want.”
At first, Xiaobao just covered his eyes, but now, he wanted to cover his ears too.
Old Shen is really… shaless.
“Get up and freshen up, your clothes were dirtied by Xiaobao,” Shen Chi pulled her up.
Only then did Xu Chaomu get up from the bed, her head still a bit sore, but luckily, Ayu didn’t hit hard.
“The dress is too heavy. Find soone to send another outfit,” Xu Chaomu discussed with Shen Chi.
“Okay, the press conference is over. I’ll have soone find you an outfit,” Shen Chi said as he made a phone call.
“Do you still need to accompany the guests? You can go; I’ll stay with Xiaobao.”
“Let’s go together.”
In the suite, Shen Chi stayed with Xu Chaomu while she changed clothes, and he also switched into a suit himself.
Xiaobao, on the other hand, kept eating as he wasn’t full yet.
Once they finished changing, Shen Chi led Xu Chaomu and Xiaobao down to the hall.
No one knew what had happened; everything remained calm, without any disturbance.
In the living room, glasses clinked as many investors gathered.
Shen Chi asked Xu Chaomu to chat with so of the wives and misses while he discussed future investnts and developnts with the investors.
There weren’t many kids, so Xiaobao had to sit alone on the couch, playing.
The hall was semi-open, and the party was casual; so select journalists were allowed in.
A few reporters particularly liked Xiaobao and surrounded him for an interview.
However, Xiaobao was indifferent to the male reporters and only showed enthusiasm to the attractive ladies.
When a particularly pretty journalist asked Xiaobao questions, he would answer earnestly.
“Young master, do you know what your dad does for a living?” the pretty journalist asked.
Xiaobao replied seriously, “Business.”
“Who do you like more, your dad or mom?”
“I like whoever is good to ,” Xiaobao said.
“Young master, can you recognize many words now?”
“Not many, just a little,” Xiaobao modestly said.
The journalist was tactful, not asking Xiaobao any sharp questions, nor any that crossed a line, as if she were having a casual chat.
Xiaobao quite liked her, and since he had no one to keep him company, he chatted with this lady for quite a long ti.
Occasionally, he would point at Shen Chi and ask her, “Auntie, do you think my dad is handso?”
“Handso.”
“I think he’s quite handso too,” Xiaobao blinked.
In front of outsiders, he never spoke ill of Shen Chi or Xu Chaomu.
“You’ll grow up to be as handso as your dad.”
“Yeah!” Xiaobao nodded.
The party was lively and harmonious, and Xu Chaomu got along well with the unfamiliar wives, who only knew that she and Shen Chi were childhood sweethearts who grew up together.
In the afternoon, there was a small seminar, and since Shen Chi hadn’t drunk much, he rested briefly at noon before heading to the eting room.
Xu Chaomu wandered with Xiaobao in the hotel’s playground; Xiaobao was enjoying it, but she seed preoccupied.
Even though Shen Chi had already turned the perilous situation around, the mastermind still hadn’t been caught, she heard.
Xu Chaomu called Xiao Mo, guessing that he would know sothing.
“Mr. Xiao, are you in a eting too?” Xu Chaomu asked.
“No, I’m handling so things.”
“Is it about what happened this morning? Take with you.”
“This isn’t sothing you should be involved in.”
“Soone tried to kill , and I shouldn’t get involved?” Xu Chaomu said displeased.
“Act as if you know nothing. Shen and I will handle it.”
“Didn’t they catch soone? Let see if I recognize them.”
“You don’t know them,” Xiao Mo said directly.
“Have you found out anything?”
“I’m asking.”
“Forget it; I’ll have Shen take after his eting,” Xu Chaomu knew she couldn’t get anything from Xiao Mo.
Xiao Mo hung up the phone and glanced at the woman in front of him.
Separated by a tal grille, the woman’s hands were cuffed.
“Still not talking?” Xiao Mo calmly sat in the chair, looking at the woman in front of him.
“Talk about what? I don’t know anything.”
“How about this, if you’re willing to talk, I’ll give you five million and let you go, how about it?” Xiao Mo tempted her, with a gaze sharp as a blade.
“I already told you, I don’t know where that woman is.”
The woman glared at Xiao Mo, her eyes sharp and her hair ssy.
“Let show you a picture,” Xiao Mo pulled up a photo of Bai Man on his phone, “Do you recognize her?”
As expected, the woman fell silent.
Xiao Mo let out a cold snort, he and Shen Chi guessed right, Bai Man hired a hitman this ti.
Once bitten, twice shy, Bai Man probably wouldn’t show up easily.
But now, Bai Man was in C City.
“You just need to answer , was it this woman who hired you?” Xiao Mo asked lightly, putting away his phone.
The woman remained silent, her expression one of resignation.
Xiao Mo seed to see through her thoughts, knowing well the art of business.
Xiao Mo sneered, “Your son is in her hands, right?”
“How do you know!” Her eyes widened in terror and panic.
Xiao Mo sneered again, indeed, he had conned the truth out of her with a simple trick.
This was Bai Man’s usual tactic, how could he not know?
Over the years, Bai Man had caused many deaths from the shadows, like when she used Dr. Li back then; wasn’t it the sa trick?
“If you tell her address, I might be able to save your son,” Xiao Mo said leisurely, “but if you don’t, do you think you can keep your life with ? Oh, you might say you don’t care about your life, but let tell you, even if your son is released by that woman, I can still get him back.”
Xiao Mo’s face was confident and composed.
“What if I tell you?”
“As I said, if you tell , I can save your son, and I’ll give you and your son a way out.”
“How can I trust you?” The woman looked full of doubt and distrust.
“You know my status well. Shen Group doesn’t do shady business, we have no interest in your lives,” Xiao Mo gave her a cold glance.
“…” The woman fell silent.
“That woman’s different, though. Do you know the outrageous things she’s done? Years ago, she killed a five-year-old girl, can you believe it?” Xiao Mo tried to scare the woman.
