The corners of Zou Bai’s mouth curled up slightly. “Have a safe trip.”
When Jiang An heard Zou Bai’s blessing, she smiled and said, “Alright, then hurry up and go do your work.”
After the two of them hung up, Zou Bai glanced at the car that was still driving in the direction of the Jiang family. He closed his eyes and relaxed his body in the car seat. He slowly said, “Zou Yi, drive straight to the company.”
Zou Yi was stunned for a moment and quickly replied, “Yes.”
Zou Er stole a glance at Zou Yi, who was about to turn around at the intersection ahead. He hesitated for a moment and asked, “Boss, the meeting this morning was brought forward to yesterday, but there are still some loose ends. The people below still want to confirm it. Do you think we should deal with it later, or wait for the small meeting in the afternoon to deal with it together?”
Zou Bai liked to prioritize work, so he replied as usual, “The afternoon meeting will be brought forward to the morning.”
Zou Er turned around and looked at Zou Bai, who had his eyes closed expressionlessly. He mourned for some unfortunate people. “Okay.”
After saying that, Zou Er took out his phone and used his email to inform the secretary. He asked her to inform the list of people who were going to die as soon as possible. No, it was the list of participants.
Zou Yi suddenly thought of something. Seeing that Zou Er and Zou Bai’s conversation had ended, he immediately said, “Boss, our people have received news that Third Master Zhao is preparing to take action. That batch of goods will be handed over to China.”
Zou Bai slowly opened his eyes. “Is it time?”
Zou Yi quickly replied, “At the moment, our people only know that they will make a move at the end of this month, but we’re still investigating the exact time.”
Zou Bai’s fingers tapped on the sofa randomly.
The Zhao family and the Zou family in Jingdu City, in addition to the Wang family in Ying District and the Li family in Ji District, were the four oldest families in China. In the past, no one had any obvious advantage over the other.
However, the situation was slightly different now. In the past few decades, the Zou family had made great contributions to the founding of the country. Later on, when the situation was unstable, they stood on the right side. Now, they vaguely had the momentum of a dragon.
In fact, the Zhao family was the same as the Zou family back then. They followed the founding leader to establish the government. Unfortunately, the head of the Zhao family was short-sighted at that time. He became powerful overnight and was blinded by power. He did many things against the law with some people.
Later on, after the political situation stabilized, although the Zhao family could be dealt with lightly, their foundation was still damaged. However, a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. Even if they were ranked last and lost the momentum, they could still firmly sit as one of the four great families.
As for the other two families, they had always followed the principle of self-preservation. Although they did not make any great contributions, they did not make any big mistakes. Now, they occupied the middle position.
After a while, Zou Bai blinked. The emotions in his peach blossom eyes were indifferent and distant. “As soon as possible.”
“It’s not easy to get my stuff.”
Zou Yi listened to the voice that sent a chill down his spine. He composed himself and replied, “Boss, I’ll speed up the process.”
Zou Bai continued, “Have you chosen the person I asked you to choose?”
Zou Yi replied seriously, “They’ve all been chosen. Swallow and Penguin have just completed their missions, and the time is right. Moreover, the two of them are more experienced in protecting their women.”
Zou Bai nodded. “Inform them to fly there directly.”
Jiang An arrived in Lin City in the afternoon. The production team had arranged a presidential suite with four rooms for Jiang An. Jiang An had one for herself, and the nannies and the children each stayed in one room. The two male bodyguards stayed in the guest room opposite Jiang An.
Jiang An and the nannies had just put down their things when the doorbell rang.
Aunt Sang opened the door and saw two unfamiliar girls standing in front of her. She asked curiously, “Hello, what’s the matter?”
The tall, short-haired girl took a step forward and said in a short and powerful voice, “Hello, we’re here to protect Miss Jiang An.”
Aunt Sang was stunned for a moment. She did not know if it was true or not, so she did not dare to let them in directly.
Jiang An overheard their conversation in the living room and walked out. “I’m Jiang An. Who are you?”
Swallow smiled at Jiang An. “Hello, Miss Jiang. Mr. Zou sent us to protect you.”
Jiang An widened her eyes slightly and asked, “Mr. Zou? Zou Bai?”
Swallow maintained her standard smile and nodded. “Yes. Didn’t Sir tell you?”
Jiang An returned to the living room and wanted to contact Zou Bai with her phone. She unlocked the screen and saw Zou Bai’s message..
