Chapter 116: Chapter 115 First Pay the Money
Su Niannian and the two others were stunned.
When Su Niannian opened the link Chi Gui had sent over, she saw full screens of English and immediately felt a bit dizzy.
Chu Jia and Yi Rui also felt dizzy, but they were more curious, “Sister Chi, aren’t these latest research materials only circulated internally? How do you have them?”
“This section has already been made public,” Chi Gui didn’t elaborate and picked up her bag to leave.
Su Niannian checked an international forum and indeed found the document.
The three of them immediately began to half-translate, half-read the study.
None of them realized that what Chi Gui mentioned was “this section” and not “this document.”
Xingu drove back to the residential complex, and as soon as he arrived at the gate, he saw Chi Mingkun waiting at a distance.
“Professor Chi, it’s your brother,” Xingu whispered, “Should I park?”
“No need,” Chi Gui glanced outside the window indifferently.
Without saying more, Xingu was about to drive in, but Chi Mingkun suddenly spoke up, “Sister, I beg you, please help me! I really have no other way!”
He had intended to enter the complex to find Chi Gui, but was stopped by the gatekeeper, so he had no choice but to wait.
It was now rush hour, and there were many people entering and exiting the gate. Chi Mingkun’s shout drew everyone’s attention.
Chi Gui rubbed her temples, “Let him in.”
Xingu didn’t stop the car but made a gesture to the gatekeeper’s room as he drove past.
All the gatekeepers were now bodyguards sent by Old Sir Shen. Seeing the gesture, one nodded and went out to tell the desperate-looking Chi Mingkun, “Go in.”
Taken aback, Chi Mingkun quickly realized what was happening and ecstatically ran inside.
The car stopped in the courtyard, Chi Gui got out but didn’t go upstairs. She leaned lazily against the car door and as Chi Mingkun ran over, she asked indifferently, “What’s the matter?”
“I, I…” Chi Mingkun gasped heavily before saying, “Sister, I agreed to a life-or-death pact with Zhang Ziyi. The losing team must leave the racing world forever…”
“Then you can’t race anymore,” Chi Gui spoke calmly.
Chi Mingkun was suddenly speechless, words stuck in his throat. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on NoveI~Fire.net
“Sister…aren’t you curious why I agreed to Zhang Ziyi…” After a long while, Chi Mingkun managed to speak with difficulty.
Chi Gui’s dark apricot eyes looked at him, “Why should I be curious?”
Chi Mingkun choked again.
He had grown up spoiled, and given the Chi Family’s high status in Nancheng, everyone, both at home and outside, protected him and comforted him at the slightest grievance.
This was the first time he encountered Chi Gui’s utter indifference.
Chi Mingkun felt somewhat embarrassed; if it had been any other time, he would have stormed off.
But…the shock Chi Gui had given him that night was too profound; now, whatever she said, he felt she must be right, and the wrong one was definitely him.
Chi Mingkun deeply reflected on his past attitudes and humbly said, “Sister…I didn’t want to agree either, but Zhang Ziyi kept provoking and taunting me, and I impulsively…”
“What’s in it for me if I help you?” Chi Gui asked calmly.
“Benefit…” Chi Mingkun was stunned again, but he quickly responded, “Anything you want is fine! I, I have a lot of money… is five million enough?”
This kid isn’t bright, but his instincts are strong!
She was a bit unable to resist…
Chi Gui took out her phone, “Just get to the main point earlier. Add me on WeChat, are you transferring the money today or tomorrow?”
He felt something shatter inside him.
