Chapter 1311: Chapter 1311: Mo Shuifu is Pregnant
Shen Shihan’s suspicions were truly profound, Shen Chi’s eyes grew cold as he fell into silence.
Xiao Mo drove the car back, but Xiaoteng kept sending messages to Shen Chi and Xiao Mo: "President Shen, Vice-President Xiao, shall we make a move?"
Shen Chi didn’t reply, so Xiao Mo sent a voice message: "Wait and see."
Xiaoteng was surprised: "Vice-President Xiao, this is a good opportunity to act. They are all waiting for their people on the side, and the goods are on the dock. It would be easy to intercept."
"It’s not just easy to succeed, it will definitely succeed," Xiao Mo said indifferently.
"Then why not intercept?"
"No reason," Xiao Mo didn’t elaborate.
If they were to intercept, there was no doubt they would succeed, but they were also sure that this shipment wasn’t the drugs and arms they were looking for.
Xiao Mo also profoundly understood Shen Shihan’s cunning; such a man had frighteningly meticulous thoughts. No wonder he had become the only rival to President Shen and one that President Shen hadn’t overcome in all these years.
But, this time, both he and Shen Chi weren’t going to admit defeat.
They were confident that Shen Shihan would reveal himself with the shipment, and they were determined to win.
"Stop the car," Shen Chi suddenly spoke up.
"Hm?"
Xiao Mo stepped on the brakes, following Shen Chi’s command and pulled over to the roadside.
Tall trees were planted along the side of the road. In the evening breeze, these trees made a "swoosh swoosh" sound that could be heard clearly even through the car windows.
The sound was like the crying of a child, or like the mourning of mountain ghosts, sounding especially chilling under the deep night sky.
"President Shen, do we stop here?"
"Yes, this spot is neither too close nor too far from the dock, the perfect place to observe," Shen Chi leaned back in the rear seat and narrowed his eyes.
"Should I ask Xiaoteng to send you some more photos?" Xiao Mo suggested.
"No need, make sure they don’t show themselves. Wait and see, and if possible, video call."
"Okay, I’ll call him."
Xiao Mo turned off the car lights and made a call to Xiaoteng, conveying Shen Chi’s intent. Xiaoteng said that although it was very dark outside, he could make a video call because there were a few lights on at the dock.
Before long, a connection was established between the car and the dockside.
Shen Chi narrowed his eyes and quietly watched the phone, his face stern and profound.
Xiao Mo’s phone was also connected, and they both kept their eyes on the phone screens, monitoring the dynamics of the dock.
However, for a long time, there was no movement at the dock. The car was parked on the side, and occasionally a group of people could be seen walking back and forth, talking and laughing, smoking cigarettes.
But the wind was strong on the dock, and it was very cold at night, so soon, some people in the group grew impatient.
"President Shen, are they still waiting for our people to go over?" Xiao Mo asked.
"Yes, they’re luring us over."
"Should we send someone to probe, or hold our position?" Xiao Mo waited for Shen Chi to make a decision.
"Wait another quarter of an hour," Shen Chi said.
"Okay."
The dock was windy and chilly at night, and the group couldn’t sit still any longer; someone started making phone calls, seemingly discussing something.
Shen Chi and Xiao Mo patiently waited, neither showing signs of panic.
Their position was very hidden; as long as they didn’t show themselves, they wouldn’t be detected.
At this moment, Shen Shihan might not even know that Shen Chi was in the United States.
But likewise, Shen Chi had no knowledge of Shen Shihan’s exact whereabouts.
After waiting for another ten minutes, Shen Chi suddenly spotted a familiar figure appearing at the dock: a man clad in a black coat, his complexion cold and profound.
It was no other than Shen Shihan.
He parked his car a good distance away from the dock and strode towards the crowd.
The Mafia Forces leader stood up to speak with Shen Shihan.
"Boss Shen, Vice Boss Shen has shown up, he’s truly here," Xiao Mo said.
"Mm, but even if he’s here, we won’t make our move," Shen Chi responded.
"It’s a trap," Xiao Mo nodded, "We absolutely cannot go."
Shen Chi and Xiao Mo continued their discreet surveillance without making a move, while their subordinate Xiaoteng grew impatient. He kept telling Shen Chi through the video call that it was the perfect opportunity to catch the culprit red-handed.
Shen Chi sharply commanded them that no one was to make a move!
After a while, Shen Shihan lit a cigarette, his gaze deep and solitary, his silhouette standing alone.
Then, Shen Shihan and the others lingered around the dock for a long time, sometimes talking, sometimes pondering.
Minutes and seconds ticked by, and Shen Chi glanced at his watch; it was already half-past midnight.
The docks were very quiet tonight, with no one coming to move goods, mostly in a state of slumber.
"Boss Shen, let’s take action now; everyone thinks we can take them on, this is a good opportunity, and Vice Boss Shen is also here; we definitely have the upper hand."
"Are you not following my orders anymore?" Shen Chi’s voice was low and frosty.
Xiaoteng could only shut up, not daring to speak again.
"Boss Shen, this group clearly intends to use Vice Boss Shen to draw you out," Xiao Mo said.
"That’s right," Shen Chi responded, "Hence, no one can show up tonight; they won’t be moving any goods!"
"Yes, we can’t afford to give them any leverage, or they’ll turn the tables and accuse us of causing trouble here," Xiao Mo’s face showed a trace of worry.
"Hmm," Shen Chi answered with a grave expression, "I’ll give Chaomu a call."
"Hmm?" Xiao Mo was puzzled.
But Shen Chi offered no explanation – instead, he hung up the video call and dialed Xu Chaomu’s mobile number.
It was afternoon where Xu Chaomu was; she sat in the garden feeding the goldfish. Watching the school of goldfish swim back and forth, she slowly began to daydream.
Receiving a call from Shen Chi took her by surprise. She wondered what country Shen Chi was in that allowed him to call her at this hour.
"Chaomu, send Shen Shihan a message telling him that Mo Shuifu is pregnant."
"Ah? Why are we suddenly talking about this?" Xu Chaomu was surprised.
"Do as I say," Shen Chi pondered for a moment, "Remember, pretend it’s a mistaken text meant for me."
"What, what does that mean? Husband, what exactly are you doing?" Xu Chaomu was at a loss.
"Forget it, you’re so dense; I’ll send you an edited message, and you forward it to Shen Shihan!"
"What’s going on?! Hey, Shen Chi, make yourself clear!" Xu Chaomu huffed. How could he call her dense? She needed to know what Shen Chi was up to.
"Just do as I say!" Shen Chi commanded.
Hearing Shen Chi’s deep and chilly voice, Xu Chaomu realized the gravity of the situation and stopped asking questions, simply nodding foolishly: "Oh."
"Mm, good girl," Shen Chi hung up the phone.
After the call, Shen Chi immediately edited a text message for Xu Chaomu to send to Shen Shihan, thinking to himself that this was his last chance for Shen Shihan.
If Shen Shihan learned of this news and backed down, Shen Chi could let bygones be bygones.
"Boss Shen, do you hope Vice Boss Shen will stop making mistakes?" Xiao Mo suddenly understood Shen Chi’s intent.
"I have no particular hopes; it just struck me to think of Xu Chaomu and Mo Shuifu. If he decides to give up on his own, that would be for the best."
