Bicker (1)

EndlessFantasy TranslationEndlessFantasy Translation Xi Xiaye and Ji Zitong chatted away while Ah Mo drank with Qi Lei and Zhou Zimo. Once in a while, they would sing too. Mu Yuchen sat beside Xi Xiaye, leisurely holding a drink and chatting to Su Chen. "Zimo has told me about it. Dont worry. Ill get them to look into the accident information from six years ago. Well see if there are any clues. Im afraid theres no way of getting the CCTV recordings. Given the weather that day combined with that road, the recordings wont be useful. Its been so many years, so itll be quite hard to dig them out again, but since you still have some doubts, well do our best." Su Chen was from the traffic bureau, thus it would be relatively easier for him to investigate these. "Mmm, thank you for helping me with this. My parents also prepared some details from years ago for me, but theres not a lot. Even though weve investigated it over and over again these past few years, the answer comes out the same every time: that it was an accident. Even the reports describe roughly the same contents. I dont trust the police much," Mu Yuchen turned to look at Su Chen and said softly. Su Chen nodded. "Find someone you can trust to investigate the whole thing. Maybe youll get some new discovery, but I do think there should at least be a suspect. That way, itll be easier to do a targeted investigation. Of course, this project will be quite a huge one." "If it wasnt huge, would I have come to you?" Mu Yuchen shot Su Chen a side look, then lowered his head and finished the drink in his glass. "Ill do my best. Right, the thing with Gu Qiwu and Doris has been going on for a while now, but why does it seem like nothings happened? The news these past few days have been about Gu Qiwu and Lingshi, but you seem calm." "Those comments are just meant to be conversation topics for those who are bored. As long as it doesnt cause direct harm to our profits, just let them be. Weve achieved our goal anyway," Mu Yuchen said nonchalantly. "I know that youve already done the work. Zimo and I will pay attention to this matter, so dont worry." They did not stay out too late. When they finished, it was only slightly past 10 p.m. Because Su Chen drank quite a lot, Ji Zitong had to drive them home. Of course, the husband and wife would send Zhou Zimo home first. Along the way, Ji Zitong drove carefully. When she turned to look at the man beside her, she saw that he was casually flipping through a magazine. She thought about it, then said softly,"Ive just given a sum of money to the flower farmer. There are some invoices that havent been paid up just yet, so Im a little tight on cash flow and might use the money from your card." "Isnt the card with you?" Master Sus card for his salary had already been handed to her. He basically got all his expenses needs from Ji Zitong. Ji Zitong thought about it, then answered,"I just wanted to let you know." Su Chen turned and squinted at her. Then, he smiled and said in a low voice, "Do you have to be so calculative with me?" "Just so you know. There isnt much cash in your wallet anymore, so Ive just put some on your bedside table. Put them into your wallet by yourself. Also, I dont think you have much to do tomorrow morning. Could you help me and the flower farmer with picking the harvest? The flower orders recently have been urgent, and they cant seem to handle it." "Cant we just hire one or two people to help out?" Su Chen looked puzzled at Ji Zitong, his handsome brows knitted slightly. For someone like Master Su, he did not see not the need to do little things like these themselves! "Its not very hard work anyway, and since the great Mr. Su has nothing else to do, just be free labor for me for a day. Is that so hard? Su Chen, how did I not realize that youre actually quite a lazy bum? Youve been exposing more and more of your shortcomings recently. Do you not realize this?" Ji Zitong slowed the car down and frowned at him. Su Chen cleared his throat and replied quietly, "Im going for golf with Chief Huang from the headquarters." "Who are you trying to fool? Yesterday evening when you came home, you told me clearly that youd have lots of time in the next two days. You dont have to try to dodge a bullet like this, Su Chen." Ji Zitongs expression darkened as she looked away. "How about I hire two people to help you? You shouldnt go either. Those roses hurt if their thorns prick you. Then, wed be the only ones suffering. If the lady boss needs to tend to such small matters too, theres no point having a florist shop." Su Chen had gone to help out before, but after an entire day, his ten fingers were all pricked so painfully by those rose thorns. He had been in pain for quite a few days to the point that it was hard to even hold a pen at work. Of course, he could not cry out in pain in front of her either. After all, she did not even complain, so how could he as a man? Right now, Ji Zitong seemed to be able to see through his thoughts, so she then rolled her eyes. "Dont worry. This time, just help me hold them and Ill do the cutting. Im surprised there are things youre bad at too. Youre so clumsy with scissors, Instructor Su. Werent you were great at darts?" "How many years have you not trained? You used to be quite tough and had an excellent physique. Are you still up to par right now?" Su Chen said, clearly implying something, yet Ji Zitong did not immediately react. She followed his line of conversation. "Why not? Even though I havent been training recently, when it comes to boxing, I might not lose to you." "Woman, do you think theres a need to compete? When have you not begged for forgiveness?" Su Chen challenged her in amusement. Ji Zitong stared ahead defiantly. "What?" Then, she realized what he was saying, so she glared at him through gritted teeth. "Stop fooling around! How come I never realized that you had such vulgar thoughts?" "Im just discussing things based on their own merit. Okay, well stop here. Lets just hire two part-timers for tomorrow. If things really get too busy at the shop, then hire one more. Youre not one of those working women. Do you really want a man like me to go cut flowers?" Su Chen was still quite chauvinistic when it came to certain things such as this. "You" Ji Zitong glared at him as her temper rose. She suddenly stopped the car by the roadside as she stepped on the brake. After a while, the car slowly came to a stop. Then, Su Chen thought something was up, so he slowly opened his eyes he had just closed. When he saw that the car was parked, he asked softly, "Whats wrong? Why did you stop the car?" Then, he turned to look at Ji Zitong and realized that she was frowning and staring at him unhappily.
