Chapter 129: 38. Field Trip
Molly called several times and asked to visit the business building together with He Yi
To save time and energy, and to achieve the goal of making a profit as soon as possible. Molly proposed to buy and renovate a business building in Yun City as the location of the shopping and food Square.
He Yi did not have any objections to this, but she had not had time to visit the business building as proposed.
Wei Jiameng’s wedding was a very important matter. She could not afford to be irresponsible at all. She had to carefully plan it thoroughly. She absolutely could not allow any negligence. Otherwise, it would be an irreparable regret.
“Miss Molly, I believe in your vision! Since I have chosen the location, I will naturally take a look when I have time! But now...”He Yi said somewhat helplessly, “My best friend is about to get married. I need to help plan her wedding. I can’t spare the time now. Please try and understand!”
At this point, Molly couldn’t say anything else. After all, He Yi left this matter to her to plan, which at least showed her trust in her.
“Okay then!” Molly said, “When Miss He has time to spare, please contact me. I will accompany Miss He!”
“Okay!” He Yi hung up the phone, then stood up and said to Ji Xueshan next to her, “Xueshan, accompany me to the Detective Agency!”
Ji Xueshan nodded and walked out without any questions.
He Yi looked at Ji Xueshan’s back and once again showed her admiration and approval. It was her fortune to be able to get a bodyguard like Ji Xueshan.
Just as she walked out, and before He Yi got into the car, she heard a commotion. Then, she saw Wen Siling rushing over aggressively with her gang.
“Wei Jiameng, you damn B*tch, come out and fight me one-on-one!” Wen Siling looked a little disheveled. She did not put on any makeup, and her hair was a little messy, she looked very different from her usual refined image as a socialite.
Wen Siling still had a group of gangster girls behind her. They worshiped her. Not only was she a genuine big sister, but she was also a role model for them to learn from and imitate. It was also because she could take care of their expenses. They had food, fun, and money to spend with her.
......
Therefore, with the support of these gangsters, Wen Siling could not be underestimated no matter where she went. Her nickname of “Female Bandit” in the upper-class circle of Yun City was not groundless. A group of gangsters was more troublesome than a group of lackeys.
Their female identity made them fearless. Many things that were called criminal when men did them, these girls did the same things righteously.
This time, Wen Siling brought people to the factory to cause a ruckus. It was obvious that they were preparing for a martial arts fight.
“Wei Jiameng, if you have the guts, come out!” Wen Siling was so angry that her eyes were turning red. She shouted at the top of her lungs. “If you have the guts, come out and fight me one-on-one!”
Of course, Wei Jiameng did not have the guts, so she still hid and did not make any movement.
He Yi walked over and looked coldly at the furious third Miss Wen. She said coldly, “Miss Wen, please pay attention to your manners!”
“F*ck off!” Wen Siling was like a mad dog, biting whoever she could. “If you don’t hand over Wei Jiameng, I’ll kill you!”
He Yi was speechless and rolled her eyes. It seemed that women who fell in love not only lost their IQ but also their poise and upbringing. In the past, although Wen Siling had nothing to do as a decent lady, she was born into a prestigious family and had at least some manners. Now, she was just a shrew in the marketplace.
“Do you think you’re so great just because you’re pregnant with a child?” Wen Siling’s voice was a little hoarse, making people wonder if she had been crying. “Is there a woman, who wouldn’t know how to have a child?”
He Yi crossed her arms and retorted coldly, “If you have the ability, I’ll see if you can have a child! If you can have a child too, I reckon that the Fang family will not be able to marry you!”
Wen Siling was rendered speechless. That’s right, she could give birth, but only if Fang Yu was willing to cooperate. Every time Fang Yu saw her, he would tremble in fear and keep his distance from her. How could he ever be intimate with her?
It would be strange if she could give birth to a child since she was as pure as jade.
“I know it’s all because of you!” Wen Siling vented all her anger on He Yi in her anxiety. She poked her nose, she cursed, “It’s all because you gave that b*tch Wei Jiameng advice and helped her think of a way to bewitch Fang Yu! If it wasn’t for you, how would Wei Jiameng have the ability to conceive a child?”
“...” How could that be? Faced with Wen Siling’s accusations, He Yi was not angry. Instead, she sneered. “No matter what you say, the person who is going to marry into the Fang family is Jiameng, not you, third Miss Wen! If you feel that you are unjustly treated, you can go and find that unfaithful man to settle the score. You can go and find your future mother-in-law to reason with! What’s the point of coming here to cause trouble?”
When this matter was brought up, Wen Siling was even more furious. “If I could see them, I wouldn’t have come to look for you!”
In short, Wen Siling couldn’t even see Empress Dowager Chu and Fang Yu anymore. The Fang family treated her like the plague, avoiding her like the plague. How would they be willing to see her face?
It would be useless no matter how much they caused a ruckus. Besides, if the ruckus went too far, her big brother Wen Li’an would come out and teach her a lesson.
It was because she couldn’t go to the Fang family to cause a ruckus that Wen Siling came to Fu Xing to look for Wei Jiameng. ..
If Wei Jiameng wasn’t hiding here with He Yi, she would have torn Wei Jia Meng into pieces long ago.
He Yi thought for a moment and helped Wen Siling come up with a good idea. “The Fang family has already decided to marry Jiameng! The wedding is about to be held! I think no matter how reluctant you are, there’s nothing you can do! How about this, you don’t make a fuss here for now. Why don’t you save some energy for the wedding? How about it?”
Wen Siling’s eyes lit up, but she immediately became vigilant. “You are encouraging me to cause a ruckus at the wedding. What ulterior motives are you harboring?”
“Ha, I helped you out of kindness, but you’re still doubting my motives!” He Yi’s expression did not change, and she said coldly, “Do you have to question my motives? Fine! I’ve always disliked Empress Chu, and I’m especially happy when I see her losing face and being unlucky! Are you satisfied with this answer?”
“If the Fang family loses face at the wedding, does that b*tch Wei Jiameng still have any face?” Wen Siling still could not understand He Yi’s intentions.
He Yi remained expressionless as she looked at Wen Siling’s suspicious face, she smiled coldly and said, “Making a scene at the wedding will only make it more lively! If you make a scene to the heavens, you will only make the Fang family lose face! Besides, I am the same as you. I don’t like the people of the Fang family very much!”
What she meant was that Wei Jiameng’s feelings were nothing compared to He Yi’s hatred towards the Fang family.
Wen Siling fiercely said, “I won’t spare every one of you! If you don’t believe me, we’ll just wait and see!”
She finally sent Wen Siling away. He Yi knew that she had successfully provoked her aggressiveness. Wen Siling would think of ways to make a scene at the wedding!
At that time, there would be a good show to watch!
“Wen Siling is a gun. If you use her well, you’ll hit every target!”Ji Xueshan whispered beside He Yi.
He Yi nodded and said, “We are waiting for Wen Siling’s brilliant performance at the wedding! She is the final character! Without her, it will be hard to continue the show!”

When they arrived at the Manhao Detective Agency, Qin Weixian still came to receive He Yi personally.
“Young Madam, you are here!” Qin Weixian greeted respectfully.
“Mr. Qin, thank you.!” He Yi sat down and said straightforwardly without any nonsense. “You should understand why I’m here!”
“Of course!” Qin Weixian immediately took the information He Yi asked him to investigate and present it to her. “This is all of the eldest young master’s files, as well as the cases he came into contact with and the enemies he made when he was a major!”
Over the years, to find Yi Jiahao’s whereabouts, Yi Liangze specially set up the Manhao detective agency and tried every means to investigate all traces of Yi Jiahao. Any clues about his disappearance were sealed.
What He Yi wanted was this sealed information. If she wanted to help Yi Liangze find the whereabouts of Yi Jiahao, she had to understand the main reason for Yi Jiahao’s disappearance.
*
The large VIP room was silent. He Yi was focused on browsing through the information and flipping through the pages from time to time.
Ji Xueshan sat by the side and looked at her phone. Qin Weixian had already left.
This was a document that was far more detailed than the investigation of Chu Piaoyun. It took him almost an hour to finish flipping through it.
He Yi closed her eyes and quietly organized it in her heart. She also linked up some seemingly unrelated small matters and analyzed the hidden relationship.
Ji Xueshan would occasionally raise her head to look at He Yi, but she never opened her mouth to disturb her. She knew that He Yi was deep in thought. At this time, any sound could disturb her thoughts.
The phone was set to silent, and the microphones kept flashing with new messages.
Wen Yongxiang sent a message asking about his third sister, Wen Siling, and whether she had gone too far. He felt helpless about this sister, and at the same time asked Ji Xueshan to help him convey his apology to He Yi.
He said that if Wen Siling caused damage to Fu Xing leather factory or He Yi that they should contact him immediately. He would actively compensate for all the losses on behalf of the Wen family.
Ji Xueshan was quite appreciative of Wen Yongxiang’s positive attitude. It was just that... he could have said these words to He Yi himself. Why did he have to ask her to deliver the message? She did not believe that Wen Yongxiang did not have He Yi’s WeChat.
However, Ji Shanshan could also guess the real reason for Wen Yongxiang’s unnecessary action — it was just to take the opportunity to say a few more words to her!
In fact, after the cold medicine incident, Ji Xueshan’s heart toward Yi Liangze had been demoralized. Even though that bright and warm man had thousands of tender feelings, he had only given them to one person!
Yi Liangze’s tender feelings were only given to He Yi alone, but he treated others coldly and even cruelly. Even though he knew that those words were ruthless, he still mercilessly reprimanded Ji Xueshan. After she cried out loud, she slowly became disheartened.
Wen Yongxiang had always been unyielding. Though he had hit a wall countless times, he was not disheartened, which made Ji Xueshan have a good impression of him.
Not to mention how sincere Wen Yongxiang was, at least now his passion and care for her were not fake.
After all, she was just a bodyguard by He Yi’s side, not some daughter of a prestigious family. Wen Yongxiang’s care and patience for Ji Xueshan far exceeded the average level. It could even be called infatuation.
Initially, Ji Xueshan didn’t bother to pay attention to him, but now she could occasionally reply to him with one or two sentences. However, she had only spoken a few sentences to Wen Yongxiang, and the other party had already sent over a dozen text messages in excitement. Moreover, they were all incoherent.
In the quiet VIP room, it was not convenient to listen to the voice messages. Ji Xueshan replied, “It’s better to send text messages! I’m too lazy to open voice messages!”
Very soon, Wen Yongxiang sent over a dozen text messages. Although the words were all wrong, it could be seen that he was very excited.
Ji Xueshan could not help but be slightly moved. Just now, she had only said that she was too lazy to open the voice chat, and had not explained that it was not convenient for her to pick up the voice chat. He did not blame her either and directly followed her request. It could be seen that he valued and respected her.
Pursing her lips, Ji Xueshan replied with another message. “Control your sister. Don’t let her be so noisy in the future! If she dares to come to Fu Xing to cause trouble again, know that I will beat her until she cries!”
These words were still as cold and hard as ever, extremely impolite.
The other party was silent for a moment. When Ji Xueshan thought that he was angry or timid, the other party replied with a message.
“I think you should help me discipline her. Although Siling is naughty, she’s a little afraid of you. If you become her second sister-in-law, you should have a legitimate identity and reason to discipline her.”
Looking at this message, it was a flirtatious remark, but it did not make her angry. Ji Xueshan looked at the message and read it a few times. She gently bit her lips.
“I got it!” He Yi, who had been closing her eyes in deep thought, suddenly opened her eyes and slammed the table heavily. She suddenly came to a realization and said, “Yi Jiahao’s disappearance is very likely related to the DE organization!”
Ji Xueshan quickly turned off her phone and stood up. “Have you found the real murderer?”
“It’s only a guess for now!” He Yi’s face was a little cold. She said, “After Jiameng’s wedding is over, I will personally investigate this matter!”
*
On the way back, He Yi instructed, “We’ll go and take a look at the business building on the way!”
Ji Xueshan, who was driving, was a little surprised. “Didn’t you tell Miss Molly that you don’t have time to go over for now?”
He Yi smiled faintly. “I don’t have time, but I can still spare a few minutes to go over and take a look!”
Ji Xueshan was still puzzled. She just looked at He Yi in the rearview mirror in confusion.
“Molly is a businesswoman. Of course, business people only seek profit. We don’t have much real friendship between us. Perhaps her cooperation is very sincere, but people’s hearts are still separated by their bellies. It’s still beneficial to be cautious! Since she invited me to inspect the scene, I don’t think she would be able to find anything wrong with it! Even if there is a problem, she will cover it up in advance!”
Ji Xueshan suddenly understood. “If we go over now, it will be easier for us to see the imperfections of the business building!”
*
He Yi stopped the car in front of the business building and got out. Accompanied by Ji Xueshan, she walked around the entire building.
The business building was located on a busy road. It was a magnificent building still under construction. Other than the noise of machinery, the entire building was quiet and empty.
“Let’s go in and take a look!” He Yi said.
The two of them walked into the building together. A security guard stopped them and allowed them to enter only after they showed their documents.
He Yi took out her lawyer’s license and said seriously, “Someone reported that the construction noise here is too loud and disturbing the people. I’m here to do an investigation!”
The security guard was shocked and did not dare to stop her. He quickly let her in and explained, “We are all working according to the rules. We stop the construction before eight o’clock in the morning and after six o’clock in the evening. The construction noise is also controlled within a reasonable range!”
He Yi nodded and walked straight inside. She was full of decency and had the charm of regal beauty.
Ji Xueshan would occasionally glance at He Yi, exclaiming in her heart. A woman who could make Yi Liangze fall in love with her to such an extent was indeed extraordinary.
Accompanied by the security guards, He Yi was able to see the renovation of the entire business building. She did not find any problems, so she left with Ji Xueshan.
However, the moment she was about to step into the elevator, she inadvertently glanced at the stairwell as if she saw something that surprised her.
“Wait!” He Yi waved her hand and signaled for the elevator to be closed. She then walked straight to the stairwell.
Ji Xueshan hurriedly followed her in, only to see He Yi stop in her tracks.
The two of them stood in the stairwell and looked at the platform space in front of them, which looked like a precipice. They could not help taking a deep breath.
Perhaps it was because it was not completed, but there was a few meters wide fault cliff in the stairwell. No protective measures were taken.
If someone suddenly barged in and did not have time to retract their feet, it was very likely that they would fall off the cliff. With a platform that was more than ten meters high, it was likely that they would not survive if they fell.
“What’s going on?” He Yi was a little surprised.
The security guard quickly explained, “Construction is ongoing. Preparing to put the stairwell railings!”
“It’s very dangerous if a construction worker accidentally walks in!” He Yi frowned, and she continued, “It’s even more dangerous at night. The lights in the stairwell are dim, and it’s very easy for accidents to happen. You must put up a warning sign at the entrance of the stairwell. Before the stairwell railing is completed, no one is allowed to enter or leave the stairwell!”
“I’m going to put it up now!” Sure enough, the security guard immediately found a warning sign and explained, “Maybe the renovation workers forgot about it!”
Seeing that there was an eye-catching warning sign at the entrance of the stairwell, He Yi was relieved and took Ji Xueshan away in the elevator.
The security guard was still a little worried and asked, “Are there any problems with our construction?”
Ji Xueshan found it a little funny, but He Yi still had a serious look on her face. “For the time being, it’s still considered standard. Please stay alert at all times and remember to work safely!”
“Okay, okay!” Seeing that He Yi did not raise any more questions, the security guard was relieved and respectfully watched them leave.
*
Ji Xueshan started the car and said as she drove, “It looks pretty good! The progress is pretty fast too!”
He Yi nodded. “Molly is a mature investor and is very experienced in doing business. She has a good grasp of the cost and time! Fortunately, she has planned everything well, so I don’t have to worry about many things!”
“I’m relieved now!” Ji Xueshan smiled. “What I saw with my own eyes is the real thing!”
“I hope this shopping mall can open smoothly as soon as possible. I invested a few hundred million, and that was all borrowed money from the bank. If the profit margin is satisfactory, I’m afraid I won’t even be able to earn back the interest!” He Yi was a little worried. After all, she invested real money, and it was unknown how much she would earn and when she would be able to make a profit.
“It will work.” Ji Xueshan encouraged her. “Since Molly is a senior investor, she must have good taste. She won’t do a deal that will lose money.”
“I can only hope so. After all, she invested more money. If she loses the profit, she will lose even more.” He Yi was very confident about this, that’s why she trusted Molly with this matter.
*
For the sake of her reputation, Chu Piaoyun could only rush to hold the wedding before Fang Yuan’s case officially started.
This greatly avoided the guests from discussing the Fang family, and it also made them think that Fang Yuan had already gotten rid of the lawsuit. After all, she would appear in front of the guests unscathed. This was enough to prove that she was fine.
Chu Piaoyun was an impatient person. Any matter she had decided on was naturally best completed as soon as possible.
After three days of intense preparations, she immediately informed He Yi that the wedding would be held in two days!
There were no betrothal gifts! The Fang family only sent a wedding dress and a bride’s outfit!
Wei Jiameng was so excited that she wanted to touch the wedding dress, but He Yi ordered someone to wash and disinfect it.
“Whose bride’s wedding dress needs to be washed first? Isn’t That odd? ” Wei Jiameng was shocked and questioned angrily.
He Yi looked at her indifferently and explained, “This wedding dress can not be worn!”
“Why?” Wei Jiameng’s voice became much softer. Based on her understanding of He Yi, every time the other party had such a certain expression, it meant that there was a serious reason. He Yi was far more knowledgeable than her. She must have discovered something wrong.
“For the sake of the health and safety of you and the child!” He Yi’s expression was cold, and her tone was inflexible and resolute. “From now on, you can’t even touch the food and clothes that the Fang family has sent over!”
This time, not only Wei Jiameng, but even Ji Xueshan was in a mess.
“It can’t be!” Ji Xueshan couldn’t help but say, “After all, she is the bride of the Fang family. Can they still play tricks with the food and clothes? If something happens, they won’t be able to live with their reputation!”
He Yi smiled faintly, she shook her head and said, “For Chu Piaoyun, the most important thing now is not her face, but the internal problem! To get rid of Jiameng and the child in her stomach, she will do anything. We should be careful!”
Wei Jiameng didn’t say anything else and just hid at the side, brushing her tears. Ji Xueshan nodded and said, “Let’s listen to sister He!”
Originally, a wedding was a happy event, but under He Yi’s vigilant attitude, Wei Jiameng did not dare to have any more fantasies. However, she still did not give up on Fang Yu.
“He Yi, do you think that after I marry Fang Yu, he will...” Wei Jiameng said with tears in her eyes, “Love me and the child a little bit!”
Looking at the hope and yearn in Wei Jiameng’s eyes, He Yi couldn’t bear to destroy the last fantasy and hope in her heart, so she said vaguely, “Maybe! At least he doesn’t have any evil intentions toward you and the child!” To comfort Wei Jiameng, she added, “As long as you are extra careful at the wedding and don’t fall into Empress Chu’s scheme, you and the child will be safe. When we return, I’ll see if I can persuade Fang Yu to come and live with you and the child! After all, the two of you are legally married!”
“Really!” Wei Jiameng’s thoughts were simple, and she was immediately happy. She excitedly held He Yi’s hand and smiled with tears in her eyes. “He Yi, I knew you were the best to me! If Fang Yu can live with me and the child after marriage, I don’t care if the Fang family recognizes me or if they are willing to accept me sincerely. As long as our family lives together, that’s enough!”
