Chapter 697 - 687: Of Course You Can
After greeting Qu Zian and Wen Yian, Bi Xia and Meng Chi returned to Qing City first."Boss, should we go home or to Xia Family Cuisine?" Meng Chi sat in the passenger seat, asking with some embarrassment.
"Let’s go to Xia Family Cuisine and take a look," Bi Xia said as she drove. Suddenly, she turned to look at Meng Chi, curiously asking, "Why are you embarrassed?"
Meng Chi let out an ’ah’ sound before saying, "Oh, it’s because... at the competition, it was my incompetence that held us back. Now, you have to drag me along, and I..."
"Fool."
The cold voice interrupted Meng Chi’s words. The young man leaned lazily against the door frame with one hand propped on his cheek. Because he was wearing sunglasses, it was impossible to see the emotions in his starry eyes. But even if you could see them, you probably wouldn’t be able to guess his thoughts.
Meng Chi always thought Bi Xia was someone very difficult to read, and his thoughts often differed from others. When people saw a dead end, he would find a new path, or when they felt despair, he would appear like a savior.
A savior... it sounds ridiculous, but that’s the reality.
Meng Chi never told Bi Xia that he visited Meng Liangxian in prison before. When Meng Liangxian found out the Meng Family had become a subsidiary of X Group, he completely collapsed.
Think about it, the Meng Family, which he founded with such ambition, ended up in the hands of his least favored son. No matter what, he wouldn’t feel proud. Moreover, the company no longer even bore the Meng name.
"Meng Chi! Wake up! That Bi Xia is deceiving you! It’s all a trick! He just wants to take our Meng Family!"
"Do you know it was Bi Xia who killed Yuan Hai? He saved you from the Meng Family for the sake of our Meng Family! Listen to me! Don’t let anyone fool you! I am your father! I am your real family!"
Heh, Meng Chi looked up at the window, family?
Of course, he knew that Bi Xia killed Yuan Hai. It was because Yuan Hai hurt him. To this day, he could vividly remember Bi Xia putting several holes in Yuan Hai’s body, knowing exactly where he shot him each time—with each shot, it was for him, for Meng Chi!
If Bi Xia did it deliberately, then he could only say that he provided the opportunity for Bi Xia to save himself. It was created by him, made by the Meng Family...
Everything about the Meng Family so far felt like a dream to him, but he clearly remembered that day. It was this young man, with Wenxin and the others, who stormed into the Meng Family and rescued him from that cage.
So, whether intentional or not, Meng Chi knew one thing: Bi Xia was his family, the family he would protect at all costs from now on.
"If losing the competition because of your injury means I am unqualified to be your boss."
"So from today onwards, stop overthinking things. Focus on recovering, and once you’re better, keep a close watch on Nine Pavilion and X Real Estate Company. If either side falls behind, be prepared for punishment."
The young man’s voice was calm, but it carried warmth and comfort. Meng Chi looked at him for a long while before slowly smiling, "Alright, don’t worry, Boss. I’ll definitely work hard, hard enough to avoid your punishment."
The blue sports car sped down the road, getting closer and closer to Qing City. Thinking about Luo Liu’s words and his own helplessness that afternoon, Bi Xia suddenly spoke, "Chi, do you think Nine Pavilion and X Group can become top-notch factions and enterprises, even compared to those in Beijing?"
Meng Chi paused, then grinned widely, "Of course!"
"Because their name is Bi Xia!"
