Chapter 449 Yi Fanxi is about to betray
When they got home, there were already four dishes and a soup on the table, which looked especially delicious.
Yan Zuozuo ate very happily. It seemed that with her husband by her side and delicious food, she felt that she was content with her life.
As she was finishing her meal, she remembered Tong Shili's situation and asked Chi Moqing, "Honey, do you think this was Tong Shili's own idea, or is it related to Master J?"
Chi Moqing frowned. Through his understanding of Tong Shili over this period of time, he knew very well that Tong Shili was not a person with strong material desires; she even had a rather indifferent attitude towards life. It was unlikely that she would want to go against Yan Zuozuo.
In other words, J hasn't given up and still wants to compete with him again?
“You need to be careful with her. I will send someone to investigate this matter thoroughly,” Chi Moqing said after a moment’s thought.
Yan Zuozuo nodded: "And it's very strange, the recent donations have decreased by almost a third, but Meng Yuanfei and the others don't know why either. Honey, isn't that strange?"
Chi Moqing served food to Yan Zuozuo: "Last time, when Yao Ziqian tried to take advantage of the situation, someone intentionally or unintentionally fueled the flames. As soon as Yao Ziqian failed, that person immediately withdrew. And it was done very obviously, as if deliberately telling others that he was trying to test the charity."
Yan Zuozuo was taken aback. Huh, was there such a thing? She didn't even know.
“Most people would do things secretly if they wanted to do something, but the other party did the opposite and told us about his actions openly, as if he was playing a game with us, at most testing the charity.”
Hearing this, Yan Zuozuo gasped. Although the domestic branches couldn't compare to the headquarters, they were still quite large and influential. If what Chi Moqing said was true, then the power behind them must be immense, almost escaping the notice of headquarters.
Yan Zuozuo frowned: "Could it be that Master J was behind this too?"
Chi Moqing smiled and put another piece of meat into Yan Zuozuo's bowl. "Don't think about so much now. Even if there's a huge problem, your husband will take care of it for you."
Yan Zuozuo sighed and looked at Chi Moqing with annoyance, "I feel so useless because I always have to trouble my husband."
"Silly girl," Chi Moqing chuckled, "Isn't one of the uses of a husband to help his wife get everything sorted out?"
That's because her husband spoils her. Other husbands wouldn't care if they encountered such a good thing.
Although she really wanted to handle it herself, she wasn't confident in dealing with conspiracies and intrigues, so she could only leave it to her dear husband.
"Honey, I'm sorry, and thank you." Yan Zuozuo looked at Chi Moqing with a resentful expression.
Chi Moqing chuckled and pinched her cheek: "You, taking good care of yourself and getting plump and healthy is the best way to thank me."
When Tong Shili got home, she saw Yi Fanxi appear in her kitchen again, seemingly out of nowhere. However, this time he was cooking, unlike the previous times when he waited for her to cook like a king.
Undeniably, Yi Fanxi was incredibly handsome, his tall, slender figure exuding a seductive allure, and his every move radiating cold charm. Tong Shili knew they were on different sides, and that this man didn't like her; she should stay far away from him, but she just couldn't control her urge to get closer to him.
"We'll eat soon," Yi Fanxi said calmly.
Tong Shili changed her shoes, washed her hands, and sat on the sofa with a complicated expression. She said, "Qin Yun has been arrested, but you don't seem worried at all."
Yi Fanxi's hand holding the plate stiffened for a moment before she placed the food on the table. "She brought this on herself, didn't she?"
Tong Shili looked up at him: "If I'm not mistaken, you had this plan all along, didn't you?"
Qin Yun is Yi Fanxi's adoptive father's only daughter, and he won't just stand by and watch her go to jail. Getting Qin Yun out of prison wouldn't be difficult for him either.
Yi Fanxi didn't say anything, but gave her a pair of chopsticks and started eating.
Tong Shili didn't touch her chopsticks; she just watched him eat. She was already beautiful, and her eating manners were incredibly elegant, exuding an innate grace in every gesture.
She wasn't unfamiliar with high-ranking officials and dignitaries, nor was she unfamiliar with grand occasions, but compared to Yi Fanxi, those people seemed to have become mere dust, while he stood there like a god.
Whether or not beauty is in the eye of the beholder, in Tong Shili's eyes, Yi Fanxi is absolutely perfect.
After finishing her meal, Tong Shili stared in astonishment at the person taking the bowls and chopsticks into the kitchen. She paused, then followed them in and asked, "You said you would protect me, that even if you didn't like me, you would still shelter me under your wing. Do you still mean what you said?"
Yi Fanxi's hands, which were washing dishes, stiffened. He lowered his eyes to hide the depth in them, and then said, "It's settled."
"really?"
Lying makes no sense to me.
“Okay, I want the position of design director for Prosperous Flowers,” Tong Shili said, her eyes sparkling.
Yi Fanxi nodded, seemingly unsurprised, but remained silent. His silence made Tong Shili uneasy. "You help me."
Yi Fanxi turned to look at her, his dark eyes filled with emotions she couldn't decipher. He took a breath and said meaningfully, "Still not planning to leave Master J?"
Tong Shili remained silent, clenching her fist. "To help or not to help?" She had never been particularly interested in that position, but it was an order from above, and she couldn't disobey. More importantly, she wanted to know the extent to which Yi Fanxi could protect her.
“Okay.” Yi Fanxi stared at her, which made Tong Shili's eyes widen in surprise. “You really want to help me, even if it puts Yan Zuozuo in a difficult position?”
"You don't need to worry about anything else. I'll make sure you get that position." Yi Fanxi's tone remained indifferent, so indifferent that Tong Shili felt uncertain. The way Yi Fanxi looked at Yan Zuozuo was one she had never seen before, with an intensity she wouldn't be surprised if he liked Yan Zuozuo. But now, to fulfill her wish, was he really willing to make things difficult for Yan Zuozuo?
Tong Shili looked at Yi Fanxi with a strange expression, her brows slightly furrowed.
Yi Fanxi never considered giving up on avenging his mother. In his view, his so-called biological father was the real culprit behind his mother's death. So he stripped him of his power, forcing him to watch helplessly as the career he cared about most in his life was destroyed in his hands.
As for Chi Moqing...
A deep, dark light flashed in Yi Fanxi's eyes. He liked Yan Zuozuo, but he never intended to ruin her happiness. Whether it was his mother's death or Yan Zuozuo's choice of Chi Moqing, he felt a sense of resentment.
Even if he were to be completely convinced, he decided to start this battle ahead of schedule. The matter of Director Tong Shili was merely an excuse, and conveniently, just an excuse.
So, that very night, Chi Moqing received a call from Yi Fanxi: "My mother was killed by your gun back then. So many years have passed, General Chi, it's time we settled things properly."
Chi Moqing narrowed his eyes and tapped the table with one hand. "Is Young Master Yi planning to reveal his identity?"
“Identity has never been important to me. I am just telling Admiral Ikegami that the contest between us has begun.”
“I’m ready anytime.” Chi Moqing raised an eyebrow. “However, the contest is between us. As for Zuo Zuo, Young Master Yi should know when to stop.”
Yi Fanxi was silent for a moment, then said, "If Chi Shang can't even protect his own wife, then he doesn't deserve to have such a good woman as Zuo Zuo, does he?"
Chi Moqing frowned: "I've remembered what Young Master Yi said." After saying that, Chi Moqing hung up the call.
Yan Zuozuo looked at Chi Moqing curiously: "Why did Yi Fanxi call you?"
The conversation seemed a little strange.
Chi Moqing smiled gently and reached out to stroke his wife's hair. "Assistant Yi probably won't be your assistant anymore."
Yan Zuozuo was stunned for a moment, then blinked blankly.
"Wife, if Yi Fanxi does anything strange to you or Fanhua Design, don't worry about his identity, just fight back fiercely."
Yan Zuozuo froze in shock. What did those words mean? Did Yi Fanxi intend to harm her?
Yi Fanxi, the future successor of the mafia, not to mention him, she can't even beat his subordinate Stephen, how could she possibly beat him?
Seeing his wife's surprised expression, Chi Moqing reached out and hooked her nose. "Remember, the person Yi Fanxi cares about most is his adoptive father."
Huh? Qin Yun's father? Could it be that Yi Fanxi wants to target her or Fan Hua Design because of Qin Yun?
She frowned; this was a bit of a problem.
The next day, upon arriving at Fan Hua Design, Yan Zuozuo received Yi Fanxi's resignation letter. He didn't appear in person; instead, he sent it directly to her email. Yan Zuozuo sighed; it seemed her husband's words were true.
She scratched her head, wondering how Yi Fanxi would deal with her. Just then, Judy walked in looking unhappy, probably because she hadn't seen Yi Fanxi today. She opened her mouth, about to tell her the bad news, when she heard him say listlessly, "Director, someone outside is looking for you. They said they'll give you this and you'll know."
Yan Zuozuo curiously took the envelope from Judy's hand and took out something that looked like a symbol. She was stunned at first, then suddenly realized, "Where is he?"
“The meeting room,” Judy said, then quickly added, “but you have an appointment with Mrs. Fan for a custom-made dress in ten minutes…”
"I understand. If Mrs. Fan comes over, just tell her I have something to attend to and ask her to wait for me a moment." Yan Zuozuo interrupted Zhu Xi and walked towards the conference room.
She'd seen this symbol before; she'd looked it up on Baidu out of boredom when Chi Moqing told her about Yi Fanxi's identity. Since he was willing to give her this, did that mean Yi Fanxi was really going to make a move?
Yan Zuozuo walked into the conference room and saw a man in a suit and tie. He looked very different from the gangsters on TV. If she didn't know his identity, she might have thought he was a successful businessman.
"Good morning, Director Yan." The visitor greeted him respectfully, showing none of the sinister ruthlessness often associated with gangsters.
Yan Zuozuo smiled and shook hands with him, gesturing for him to sit down and talk. "I wonder what brings you here today, Mr. Wang?"
As they were talking, Judy had already placed two cups of coffee in front of them.
"Thank you. I have something to discuss with Mr. Wang. You can go back to work now," Yan Zuozuo said to Zhu Xi.
Judy nodded and closed the door behind her.
The man didn't touch the coffee in front of him, but instead pushed a thick document and a check in front of Yan Zuozuo. "Director Yan, these are the resignation letters of all the managers of your catering and entertainment institutions. According to the contract, this is the compensation they should pay you. Please take a look and see if there are any problems."
Resignation letters from all managers?!
