Chapter 39 The Zhai Sisters

Li Maiban lay on the lounge chair on the balcony, shaking gently, the bright moonlight shone, and a faint light was printed on his face, and the cigarette between his fingers disappeared with the cold wind.

There is no light on in the living room, and the moonlight outside is shining in, slightly bright.

What he was in his mind was tossing and turning, and the shadow of Zhang Xiaoyu and how to deal with Haohao's relationship with her.

Opposite the balcony is the huge Nangang city area. On the top floor, you can overlook the infinite night view of the beautiful city. The plumpness of this city has the hard work of its own parents and even ancestors. In that passionate era, they used their wisdom and hands to engage in the greatest cause in the world.

But now, as the only successor of the family, he cannot solve the most common things between people.

Even though he no longer had a prominent aura on his body, his innate sense of honor and disgrace was still impacting his nerves. This was really frustrating and ashamed.

The phone was vibrating. Li Mai took it out and looked at it, then opened the door with the remote control.

Long Zhang carried a briefcase, pushed the door open and brought it to the door.

When he walked to the balcony, he moved a stool, sat down opposite Li Mai, took out a stack of information from his briefcase, and handed it over.

The information you asked me to check is here. After Li Mai took it, Long Zhang whispered, the general relationship had been cleared. Zhai Ruonan was Zhai Xiaoyu's half-sister.

With the help of the moonlight, Li Mai began to look through the information and nodded. No wonder their appearances were so different.

Zhai Xiaoyu rarely mentions her family to Li Mai. Once mentioned, most of them are her father who has passed away for many years. Li Mai has asked many times, but Zhai Xiaoyu never says it. Moreover, Zhai Xiaoyu told Li Mai not to use his family power to investigate himself.

Even though Zhai Xiaoyu's tone was very light, Li Mai could feel her determination. Li Mai really did not investigate Zhai Xiaoyu's family background. In fact, for Li Mai at that time, these were not important at all. He didn't care who Zhai Xiaoyu was, he loved her anyway.

So Li Mai only vaguely knew that Zhai Xiaoyu had a sister, but she had never seen her before. She was even less clear about her family situation. But Li Mai could feel that the relationship between Zhai Xiaoyu and her sister was not good.

Long Zhang continued to say that after Zhai Xiaoyu's father passed away, her mother remarried her clan's uncle Zhai Yuanping and gave birth to a baby girl, so her surname was Zhai. They were ten years apart from each other. According to our investigation, Zhai Yuanping was not good to Zhai Xiaoyu and often beat her. Zhai Xiaoyu's mother Gong Liping had no status at home, so it can be judged that Zhai Xiaoyu was not happy in childhood. After going to college, Zhai Xiaoyu moved out of the Zhai family and almost cut off contact with the Zhai family.

After a pause, Long Zhang glanced at Li Mai. I also found that there was a vague history between Zhai Xiaoyu's father Zhai Qixue and Zhai Yuanping, but there is no clear investigation result yet.

Li Mai's eyes left the information, looked up at Long Zhang, but asked: What's going on with the Zhai family has something to do with my mother's family.

Shaking his head, Long Zhang said that the Zhai family is an ordinary family in Nangang, and there is nothing special about it. The Zhai family has four major branches, Zhai Qixue is one of them, and the genealogy is ranked first, and he is a famous scholar in Nangang. Zhai Yuanping is ranked second. He started his business in smuggling back then, and now he has some industries under his name.

As for whether there is a relationship with the Zhai family in the imperial capital, this is very conclusive. There is no relationship between the two, and it is closely related to the surnames. There are hundreds of Zhai family in the country. Since the liberation of the Zhai family in the imperial capital, they have no blood-related branches among the people.

After figuring this out, Li Mai was indeed relieved. He immediately said: There is a vague history between Zhai Qixue and Zhai Yuanping. What you mean is to tell me that Zhai Qixue's death is not as simple as it appears.

Long Zhang nodded slightly. There is this possibility, but further investigation is needed.

Then check it out.

Li Mai said without hesitation.

After hesitating for a moment, Long Zhang took out another information from his briefcase. This was Zhang Xiaoyu's information and Hu Wenbing had read it first.

This is the information of Haohao’s head teacher. I think you may need it. Long Zhang handed it over.

Li Mai did not take it immediately, but looked at Long Zhang. Faced with the intimidating gaze, Long Zhang remained expressionless.

Without my instructions, don't take your own actions.

Li Mai finally took over the information.

Long Zhang didn't care about these things. It was not Li Mai who could actually give him instructions, but someone else.

Several other people who appeared in the Tang Dynasty Restaurant in the evening also found out. The bald middle-aged man was Huang Jincai, the boss of Guangyuan Real Estate Company. The woman was his mistress, named An Lin. Huang Jincai had some financial resources and had some influence in Nangang. This time we suppressed him, and according to this person's personality, we would definitely take revenge. An Lin was not threatening, but just a gold-worshiping fashion model. Long Zhang introduced the two people in a few simple words, so he shut up.

Speaking of this, Li Mai suddenly frowned, looked up at the starry night sky for a while, and said uncertainly that at that time, I felt a few more threatening people nearby, thinking they were Huang Jincai's people. Later, the situation was chaotic, and this feeling disappeared in an instant. You said this, but I reminded me.

Long Zhang looked at Li Mai in confusion, his eyebrows were deeply locked. You mean, there were a third party present at that time.

He nodded slowly, Li Mai slowly became confident. I couldn't feel wrong, and they were very dangerous.

He said this, Long Zhang believed it. Foresight of danger, Li Mai, who was born in the Short Knife Commando, was far ahead of anyone in their internal affairs system. But he did not find any more suspicious characters.

Maybe it was Qin Junjie's person, maybe it was an unknown person. Li Mai talked to himself, and then said to Long Zhang, "In short, no matter who it is, you must find out. I don't want Haohao and Zhang Xiaoyu to be in danger."

Long Zhang quietly put a stone in his heart. He was worried that Li Mai would be furious when he knew that he had arranged someone to follow Zhang Xiaoyu in secret. Li Mai said this and issued him a pass.

It is true that he did not accept the order of Li Mai, but he absolutely could not bear Li Mai's anger.

In fact, whether it was Li Mai or Long Zhang, since the day he made a big fuss, he had already realized that the child could no longer maintain his previous style of conduct with a series of things.

In order to solve the problems that are constantly emerging, Li Mai must borrow the power of Long Zhang. In fact, what he uses is basically the power of the old Li family.

Five years ago, Li Mai resolutely stated that if he did not agree with his marriage with Zhai Xiaoyu, he would not return to that home. Five years later, Li Mai, who suspected that Zhai Xiaoyu's death was related to some people in the family, also resolutely announced that he had severed relations with the old Li family.

The only one who implicated him and Lao Li's family was his father who was unknown.

However, for the sake of the children, he had to rely on these family forces that he had vowed to never create any connection.

Even if it is regarded as a compromise, Li Mai is willing to do so for the sake of his children.

After the Xihai incident, Li Mai was actually cooperating with some family actions intentionally or unintentionally, which can be regarded as a sign of easing relations between the two parties.

But they all knew very well that if Zhai Xiaoyu's knot was untied for a day, Li Mai's heart would not return to the old Li family.

At this point, he has striking similarities with his father.

Li Mai naturally knew very well that Long Zhang would not speak out to him, but he also knew that Long Zhang and many people like him would never have the possibility of harming him.

That's enough.

Mother

Even though the sound was extremely slight, Li Mai still heard Haohao's dreamy voice. He sat up all of a sudden and threw the information on his hand to Long Zhang. You go back first and tell me any progress.

After saying that, he quickly walked into Haohao's room.

Long Zhang put away the information, watched Li Mai's back disappear at the door of the room, sighed in his heart, and stood up and left.

In the room, Haohao unconsciously raised and put down his hands, lifted and put them down, as if looking for a mother's hug. Li Mai sat down gently by the bed, held Haohao's hand, and gently patted his chest.

Haohao grabbed Li Mai's hand tightly and finally continued to sleep peacefully.
