Chapter 960: There are So Many People Around Me Protecting Me. Who is He to Me?
Tang Yan wasn’t able to catch Feng Qiang. This was within his expectations. What was Feng Qiang’s next move?
Feng Qiang worked for the Song father and son, but in the end, he was wanted by the police. If it were him, he wouldn’t be willing to accept it.
Moreover, Feng Qiang was ruthless. If he attacked, he would definitely be injured. If there was no news from Tang Yan, then he and the people around them would be in extreme danger.
On the stage, Lou Zichen had already appeared in front of the public in his formal attire.
What was unexpected was that he was actually holding his son’s hand.
“The exciting moment has arrived.” Mu Qiqi held Sheng Xiao’s palm and was sweating slightly because she hoped that good people would be rewarded in this world.
Under the spotlight, Lou Zichen faced his peers, the big shots in the industry, and the numerous media outlet representatives. First, he sincerely bowed. Then, he held the microphone and began to speak. “Before I announce that I will take over the Lou Corporation, I would like to share a piece of good news with everyone. The police have already arrested the murderer of my father. I believe that my father’s soul is in heaven and will be able to rest in peace.”
“Everyone must be very curious as to why I would bring my son up on stage. Just yesterday, he was tied to the rooftop in his school by my father’s murderer. It was a narrow escape.
“He’s not even three years old, but as a father, I was still ruthless enough to tell him that we, as a company, rely on our conscience. Using such despicable methods to deal with our compet.i.tors is too shameful. I want him to remember this grudge, not to remind him to take revenge. I want him to remember that when he grows up, he should never use such methods to hurt others.
“Do you remember?”
Faced with so many adults below the stage, the little boy did not have stage fright. He nodded obediently and said, “Father, I’ll remember.”
Seeing Lou Zichen like this, Mu Qiqi sighed. In the future, his child would grow up to be very outstanding.
Then, the little boy was led down the stage by his mother. At this moment, Lou Zichen cast his gaze on Sheng Xiao again.
“Before I begin the speech, I would like to thank one person, CEO Sheng of Zhongteng. I know that before our Lou Corporation, you have helped many enterprises in Jianchuan, including the former Lu Corporation and the Xu Corporation. You have done many meaningful things, but I really didn’t expect that you would invest so much in the education industry.
“Thank you for your generosity. While the Lou family was struggling to survive, we found a glimmer of hope. I’m really grateful to you.”
Sheng Xiao did not say anything. He merely stood up and bowed slightly in front of everyone.
This was just a gesture.
With Sheng Xiao’s presence here today, Lou Zichen’s inaugural speech received the recognition and support of many big shots. Firstly, it educated people that with Lou Zichen’s type of character, there was hope in the future. Secondly, the support of Zhongteng was tremendous. The local education industry was half-dead due to the impact of Yashang Group. Now that everyone was working together, they would definitely drive those crooked enterprises out of Jianchuan completely.
“A person of integrity is pleasing to the eye.”
Hearing Mu Qiqi’s exclamation, Sheng Xiao tilted his head and looked at her. This thing, in the end, had her strong Shen family. That was why she had such a strong sense of what was right and what was wrong.
“Today, I officially announce that I’m the new chairman of the Lou Corporation. I hope that I can lead everyone forward fearlessly.”
As the warm applause rang out, Lou Zichen’s pa.s.sionate speech came to an end.
Today was a good day. Not only because of the rise of the Lou Corporation, but also because of the spread and knowledge of the Song family’s notorious reputation.
After the inauguration ceremony, there was a luncheon.
However, Mu Qiqi was getting tired. After standing for a long time, she wanted to lie down.
When Sheng Xiao saw this, he hugged her and said, “Let’s go home.”
“I’m so happy today. I’m fine.” Mu Qiqi shook her head.
When others saw Sheng Xiao’s protective look, they really could not believe that this person was the decisive crown prince of Huang Yao who relied on his mood to do things.
Just what kind of charm did this little bride have that could make such a person change into a different person for her?
“I’ll help you to sit by the side for a while. After I say h.e.l.lo to Lou Zichen, we’ll leave.”
“Okay.” Mu Qiqi quickly nodded. “You can go directly. I’ll go and sit by myself.”
It was only a few steps away. Sheng Xiao did not force her and turned around to go into the crowd.
Mu Qiqi sat down on a comfortable chair. At this moment, the hotel attendant walked up to Mu Qiqi with a piece of paper and said to her, “Miss Mu, someone asked me to give this to you.”
Mu Qiqi looked at the piece of paper vigilantly. After making sure that there were no other traps, she reached out and picked it up. Then, she saw that there was a sentence written on it, “You will definitely pay the price.”
Mu Qiqi frowned and suddenly looked around the hall. She had a hunch that Uncle Rong was probably around here. Otherwise, he would not have known that Sheng Xiao was not by her side at the moment.
Of course, she would not chase after him foolishly. Wouldn’t that be playing right into the enemy’s hands?
A moment later, Sheng Xiao returned to her side. When he saw the strange expression on her face, he frowned. “What expression?”
Mu Qiqi reached out and showed him the note. “I think this Feng Qiang has his eyes on me.”
Sheng Xiao tore the note and calmly helped Mu Qiqi up. “Let’s go home. There’s nothing to worry about.”
She was the weakest link between Sheng Xiao and Tang Yan, not only because she was a woman, but also because she was a pregnant woman who was two months away from giving birth.
In addition, she was the one who found out about Shen Mei, so it was only natural that Feng Qiang would target her.
“Don’t worry. Leave everything to me.”
Mu Qiqi shook her head. “I’m not worried. I just think that Feng Qiang is so bold to come to a place like this. The police are looking for him everywhere.”
“It doesn’t matter if he’s bold or not. No matter what he’s trying to do, it’s impossible for him to achieve his goal.” Sheng Xiao held Mu Qiqi’s hand and led her away from the hotel venue. “After we go home, I’ll get Fifth Aunt to prepare some calming tea for you. Then, have a good rest and don’t think about anything else.”
“Are you trying to coax me like I’m a three-year-old child?” Mu Qiqi felt a little helpless. “Don’t worry, my mental fort.i.tude is very good. He’s the one who’s going to live like a street rat, not me. He’s the one who should be afraid, not me.”
“There are so many people around me protecting me. Who is he to me?”
Sheng Xiao almost forgot that this thing had always been different.
“I know you’re brave, but you can’t be devoid of fear. Tang Yan and I will catch him. I promise you…”
