29 - The Old Fox?

Sensing that Qi Mao was looking at her, Wen Hui gave him a perfunctory smile. Since he called him Second Uncle, then he must not be rude.

The man's hands around her waist tapped rhythmically, causing Wen Hui's lower eyelid to go numb. He said indifferently: "Second Uncle, stop joking with me, have you ever been to the company? The uncles on the board missed you. "

"I can rest assured that you will take care of the matter with Ming Ming. I'll go over again in a few days."

Qi Mao placed a cup of tea in front of him, but Qi Yuanming did not move.

"I heard you were in a car accident a few days ago. I was shocked when I saw the news. Are you alright now?"

Qi Yuanming changed the topic and placed his hand on her shoulder. A dangerous message flashed past his dark eyes, so fast that no one could catch it, and although Wen Hui could clearly smell the smell of gunpowder, he couldn't find a single flaw in their conversation.

"It's nothing serious, I just needed to stay in the hospital for two days. At that time, Wen Hui was also in the car, so the woman was always a little more reserved.

When Wen Hui saw how unflustered his face was as he unhesitatingly recounted the "facts", he lowered his head in guilt. However, he then heard Qi Mao speak again, "In the end, he's still young, so he has a good foundation."

Qi Yuanming pulled her hand and stood up, "Second Uncle, I still have some matters to attend to, I'll come visit you another day."

After saying that, he brought her out of the room. As he turned around, he put away all his smiles. That deep and reserved man had returned.

"Say hello to your mother for me!"

Qi Yuanming did not even turn his head back as his expression changed greatly: "My mom just told me that she doesn't like to be disturbed."

Wen Hui turned his head around and only saw Qi Mao sipping his tea. He could not tell whether he was happy or angry, and it was not strange that his mother-in-law and Qi Mao knew each other. They were his sister-in-law, but why did Qi Yuanming's attitude towards them change?

The man walked her quickly but neatly. He quickly got into the car, dropped the security lock and checked her shoulders. "Are you all right?"

Wen Hui looked up and saw that Qi Yuanming's face was filled with panic, he could not help but feel his heart warm up, and laughed: "I'm fine, I just spoke a few words and you're already here."

He couldn't count the number of red lights the man had to run along the way. He definitely didn't know how to do things, but he naturally wouldn't say those words out loud.

"Bring a few more people with you next time you go out, and don't see him alone again."

She didn't tell Qi Yuanming that she didn't want to get into Qi Mao's car, so she didn't want to cause any trouble.

"Why? Isn't he your second uncle? "

Wasn't Second Uncle his father's younger brother? She didn't understand why such a close relationship warned her not to touch.

In the narrow space, the two's faces were very close together. Wen Hui could clearly see every single one of his facial features, and it was so perfect that it was flawless. He said: "Just listen to me, don't ask why."

At that moment, Qi Yuanming no longer had the respect she had for the elders in the house, and her cold attitude made her think of many things.

"He was basically deliberately following me. I kept on feeling that something was off about him. He looked like an elder but was also very cold."

How could he have a nephew in a car accident with a businesslike attitude, "You don't have a good relationship with him?"

Qi Yuanming's face turned cold when he mentioned the accident. He took out a cigarette case from the drawer of the carriage and was just about to light it up to remember that she was still in the car, then put down the lighter and put the cigarette between his index and middle finger.

"The accident could have something to do with him. He came back last week."

Qi Mao would always receive news of his entry and exit records, the purpose of his return was extremely clear to Qi Yuanming, everyone knew about his wolf ambition!

Wen Hui thought about Qi Mao's smiling face and felt goosebumps all over his body. He could not help but feel afraid of him, "The next time I see him, I'll run, and I don't like that Smiling Tiger."

She had always remembered that Yao Lili had said that running away after failing to defeat her was an ironclad truth, and that she couldn't afford to hide from him.

Qi Yuanming suddenly smiled faintly at her delicate face. It was not the first time this man laughed so shakily, but his smile was really pretty. Wen Hui was stunned.

Smiling Tiger's description was quite fitting, "Then what's the name you gave me in private?"

She pretended to think for a long time. "An old fox, oh no, a thousand-year-old fox."

Sly, cunning, sinister and vicious were Wen Hui's impressions of him from before. He felt that not many could compare to his schemes before.

Qi Yuanming smirked, pretending to be cold, "Aren't you afraid that I'll get angry when you say that?"

"I'm afraid, but I don't want to lie to you. This is what I felt towards you before."

She's just telling the truth. When you get to know a person and stop being defensive, that means you start to believe him.

The man wasn't annoyed. As he started the car, he asked her with a relaxed smile. It was obvious that his mood wasn't that bad. "What about now?"

"Now that I think about you as a human, you can also laugh and be angry. It's not as scary as it was in the beginning."

A person of flesh and blood wasn't as cold-blooded as before.

Qi Yuanming suddenly changed the topic, "Back then when I had just taken over the event, my second uncle was the one behind it and disturbed the people on the board to oppose me."

Wen Hui thought that the atmosphere inside was very weird, he never thought that there was such a relationship between them. Furthermore, she clearly knew that she was Qi Yuanming's wife yet she still called her Miss Wen;

The man's hand was on the steering wheel, and the cigarette between his fingers was crumpled and broken. He lowered the window and threw it outside, quickly disappearing into the air.

"Later on, I was able to stabilize my position in the Magnificent Brocade City. Seeing that he had already left, he left the country. After leaving for a few years, he unexpectedly returned in just a few days."

Wen Hui was shocked, "You mean he is still eyeing Sheng Ming covetously?"

So it turns out that the status that Qi Yuanming possessed today was not something that could be obtained easily, and he had also put in a great deal of effort that was akin to blood perspiration.

Qi Yuanming's lips curled into a disdainful smile, as if she did not put him in her eyes at all, "Now that he's coming back to force me off the stage, I purposely let the news report about the car being destroyed and the people killed, and his fox tail exposed, secretly fooling around with a few directors and thinking that I don't know."

"Sheng Ming is now on the right track. If he wants to sit in his original position, there's no problem at all. If he had other thoughts, I wouldn't show mercy on him."

This was the first time Qi Yuanming revealed his intentions in front of her.
