Chapter 465: Chi Mu Chengping's Doubts

~7 min read 1,256 words

Yeah, Uncle Chengping, it seems we last met about ten years ago. Chen Yongren smiled and said, "This time I finally get to see you, uncle."

My childhood wish to help you with your work has finally come true.

Uncle, you're still as young as you were ten years ago.

Chen Yongren's acting was superb, and since they hadn't seen each other in ten years, Chi Mu Chengping temporarily noticed no flaws.

You…" Chi Mu Chengping suddenly lowered his voice and said: "Why did you suddenly come to Jinmen to help me with work? You know your brother is also…"

Hmph!" Chen Yongren snorted coldly: "This time, I certainly came for it."

Saying this, Chen Yongren took out a plaque from his pocket and whispered: "Uncle Chengping, look, what is this?"

Chi Mu Chengping lowered his head, looking at the plaque in Chen Yongren's hand, and exclaimed in surprise: "Your father really agreed to give you the clan head position?"

Chen Yongren nodded.

Chief Director, don't just take this out casually; put it away quickly! Your father didn't give it to you to show off." Chi Mu Chengping said sternly.

Since you've come to Jinmen, I will surely train you well and make you a qualified heir of the family!

Remember, you must never let your brother find out about this.

No, not just your brother—before you officially become clan head, don't tell anyone, or else…

Just based on that waste Yuan Gangxian, what right does he have to compete with me?" Chen Yongren curled his lip in disdain.

There's nothing that can't be solved with one shot; if there is, then use two shots.

How are you still the same as when you were a child?" Seeing Chen Yongren's disdainful expression, Chi Mu Chengping shook his head helplessly: "You've just come to Jinmen; there are many things you don't understand."

The stakes involved, I'll tell you later…

Suddenly.

That old geezer's gaze was drawn to Lin Ke Xin again.

Chief Director Sir, who is she? Didn't you say you came alone before?

Chi Mu Chengping looked Lin Ke Xin up and down, his eyes showing a hint of confusion.

Chen Yongren put his arm around Lin Ke Xin and said: "She is my fiancée, Meishazi."

A fiancée?" Chi Mu Chengping exclaimed in disbelief: "When did you get a fiancée?"

I'll explain this slowly to you." Chen Yongren said seriously, gently pinching Lin Ke Xin's cheek: "What are you staring at? Hurry up and greet my uncle."

Since I was little, he's been the one who dotes on me most, and whenever I cause trouble, he's the one who cleans up the mess.

Besides my parents, he's the person I'm closest to.

Uncle Chengping." Lin Ke Xin bowed slightly.

Chi Mu Chengping was full of question marks.

What else does this young master of the Yuan Clan want to do?

But the front gate was clearly not a place for talk, so Chi Mu Chengping immediately led Chen Yongren and the others into the intelligence agency.

Inside the office.

Chen Yongren sat directly on the sofa, his arms around Lin Ke Xin in his embrace, gently stroking her hand.

Ugh, Chief Director, your uncle is still here." Lin Ke Xin's face flushed with embarrassment as she lightly tapped Chen Yongren's chest.

Seeing them flirt and bicker, Chi Mu Chengping's brows furrowed slightly.

Chief Director…" Chi Mu Chengping looked at Lin Ke Xin, wanting to speak but stopping.

Lin Ke Xin immediately understood, stood up and said: "Chief Director, you said you were hungry on the way, let me prepare some food for you first."

Come to think of it, I am indeed a bit hungry." Chen Yongren rubbed his stomach and said: "Then I'll trouble Meishazi—please prepare a bit more."

Let my uncle also taste your cooking.

Lin Ke Xin nodded, looked at Chi Mu Chengping, and asked: "Uncle, do you have any dietary restrictions?"

Chi Mu Chengping shook his head.

All right, I understand, I'll go prepare now." Lin Ke Xin bowed slightly to Chi Mu Chengping, then stepped out of the office with small steps and closed the door.

Chi Mu Chengping's eyes lit up.

This woman is so sharp—just a glance, and she understood that I had something to say to Yuan Chief.

No wonder she could make him so happy.

After Lin Ke Xin left the office and closed the door, Chen Yongren laughed and said: "Uncle, believe me, Meishazi's cooking will surely leave you praising it endlessly."

Chief Director, you still haven't told me where this Meishazi came from." Chi Mu Chengping asked doubtfully: "When did you get a fiancée?"

Chen Yongren recalled: "On my way here, I met Meishazi in 49 City."

She was being harassed by a group of ruffians; I rescued her. Later I learned that Meishazi is a Japanese orphan—her father died accidentally, and her mother died from overwork.

Seeing Meishazi pitiful, I took her in. Although we haven't been together long, I am already deeply captivated by her charm.

Uncle, I love her—I will definitely marry her!

I promised her that once I officially inherit the clan head position, I will marry her as my wife and take care of her forever…

Chen Yongren's voice grew excited, and he became more enthusiastic as he spoke.

Chi Mu Chengping, however, was left with a head full of question marks.

I had thought she was a lady from a prestigious family, but who would have guessed she's merely a stranger I just met on the road?

From that old geezer's perspective, this is clearly a woman who noticed a man with power and influence nearby, so she used every trick to try to attach herself to him.

Chief Director, you're being ridiculous!" Chi Mu Chengping slammed his hand on the table, cutting off Chen Yongren's words.

Uncle, I'm not being ridiculous!" After being cut off, Chen Yongren was dissatisfied: "We truly love each other! Even if my father knew, he would support me."

You're going to be the head of the Yuan Clan—how could your father possibly agree to let you marry some random woman?" Chi Mu Chengping pointed at Chen Yongren and said.

That old geezer never expected that Yuan Chief, upon arriving in Jinmen, would bring himself a big trouble.

But considering that this young master has been spoiled since childhood, it's not surprising he could do something like this.

If your older brother finds out about this, he will surely seize the opportunity to make trouble.

After a pause, Chi Mu Chengping seemed to recall something and pressed: "Just now you said she was what? An orphan from Japan?"

Chen Yongren nodded.

"What is her full name?" Chi Mu Chengping asked.

"Uncle, I've looked into her…" Chen Yongren said, dissatisfied.

Chi Mu Chengping said coldly: "What could you possibly find out?"

"Tell me her name right now, no nonsense!"

"If you don't speak up, believe it or not I'll immediately send a telegram to your father telling him what foolish thing you've done!"

"Uemiya Misako." Chen Yongren said.

"Uemiya Misako..." Chi Mu Chengping thought for a moment, got up, walked to the phone, and dialed a number: "Immediately investigate a person for me."

"Uemiya Misako, living in 49 City, a young woman."

"It's said she is a Japanese orphan."

"Yes, tonight I want to see all her information."

Having said that, the old devil hung up the phone.

"Damn, this old devil is really cautious," Chen Yongren said: "Uncle, A Ren't you being too suspicious..."
