Chapter 1314: Chapter 1314: Leave It to His Own Fate

Shen Chi smiled, the corners of his mouth turning up slightly.

"Do you know when you are the most formidable?" Xu Chaomu chuckled.

"Hmm?" Shen Chi looked forward with an expectant face, waiting for her answer.

"When you scold me!" Xu Chaomu put her hands on her hips and huffed.

"..." Shen Chi’s mouth twitched, "Xu Chaomu, you just wait, I’ll take care of you when I get back!"

"You’ve said that so many times, but I’m still waiting for you to come and take care of me. Let’s set a deadline, by my time here, if you don’t show up in front of me within twelve hours, then you have to go home and copy our marriage certificate a hundred times, how about that?"

"Okay..." Shen Chi agreed to her.

He knew that he wouldn’t be able to show up in front of her within twelve hours, so he had to copy the marriage certificate as punishment.

"Alright, it’s settled then. I’ll take a nap, and when I open my eyes, I’ll see you!" Xu Chaomu said with a smile.

Shen Chi was confident, and he wouldn’t agree to something he was unsure of, so would she see him after taking a nap...

Thinking about this made her much happier.

They chatted idly for a while longer—sometimes Xu Chaomu teased Shen Chi, but more often it was Shen Chi teasing her.

He was growing fonder of this warm feeling; once he had dealt with Shen Shihan’s matter, he would never let himself be in life-threatening situations again.

After a long while, Xu Chaomu reluctantly hung up the phone, blowing him a kiss through the phone.

Shen Chi thought, without Xu Chaomu, his life would be so dull.

She was his irreplaceable star and moon...

In the afternoon, Xiao Mo organized all of last night’s events and sent them to Shen Chi’s laptop.

Shen Chi looked over them, and the results were more or less what he had expected; it wasn’t about moving goods for Shen Shihan, but to lure them out.

After the Mafia Forces people withdrew, they patrolled the dock a few more times, and only after they found no traces of them did they leave with peace of mind.

To completely lower Shen Shihan’s guard, Shen Chi had Xu Chaomu post several of their photos together on her Moments, of course, to make Shen Shihan believe he was with Xu Chaomu.

In Shen Shihan’s heart, he truly trusted Xu Chaomu and indeed considered her as his own sister.

"Any updates on the Feili Group people?" Shen Chi typed a few characters and asked Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo replied: "Lu Feili is still in the country, but Nie Chenglang is gone, and his whereabouts are very secretive; I can’t trace him."

"Lu Feili’s heart is even colder than Shen Shihan’s, letting her own son handle this deal." Shen Chi sneered.

"She either doesn’t see the danger, or she is turning a blind eye, hoping for the best," replied Xiao Mo, "Since she has chosen this for herself, Mr. Shen, just let it be."

"I have no idea where Nie Chenglang is, I can’t do anything," Shen Chi said indifferently.

"Mm, leave it to his fate. You must not get involved, or if your whereabouts are exposed, your life might be in danger," Xiao Mo worried that Shen Chi would go soft-hearted.

"Hmm."

The events of the previous night reminded Shen Chi that he could be soft-hearted, but it didn’t mean everyone else would be.

He might be soft-hearted once, but he would never be soft-hearted twice!

He had to be even more careful than Shen Shihan; he wouldn’t let himself get into trouble.

If Nie Chenglang was the one in trouble, then there’s nothing he could do, even if Xu Chaomu hits or scolds him, he would accept it.

Xiao Mo didn’t reply again, he glanced out the window and couldn’t help but sigh.

Lu Feili is truly ruthless, sending her own son straight into these murky waters!

He didn’t interact much with Lu Feili, but his subordinates often reported to him about Feili Group’s affairs, and from those scattered pieces of information, he learned that Lu Feili was a very strong-willed woman.

This woman had a great sense of career, one could say that for her career, she could ignore everything else.

His subordinates also told him that Lu Feili had always hoped Nie Chenglang would marry the daughter of the Qi Family, joining powerful forces to become even stronger, but she never considered her son’s feelings.

This time, Nie Chenglang probably knew nothing.

He had met Nie Chenglang, a gentleman through and through, excellent in every respect, especially for having taken care of Xu Chaomu devotedly for a full five years.

However, in the cutthroat world of business, Nie Chenglang was too green! Or, to put it bluntly, not suited to it at all!

Even his least capable subordinate could outmaneuver Nie Chenglang in cunning calculations; Nie Chenglang was not meant for the business battlefield.

Yet, Lu Feili had only Nie Chenglang as a son, perhaps that was fate.

Xiao Mo glanced outside the window, not thinking further, he and Shen Chi had been waiting for this day when Shen Shihan would make his move.

Nie Chenglang had already left the country, signaling that Shen Shihan was about to strike!

For some reason, his heart was beating extremely violently.

If Shen Chi had left the entire matter to him, he might not be so nervous, but Shen Chi did not; he personally took this risk!

If something happened to Shen Chi, he would live with a guilty conscience for the rest of his life.

Shen Chi was Xu Chaomu’s everything, so no matter what, he would protect Shen Chi.

The shadows of the trees outside the window swayed, and with the breeze came the fragrance of sandalwood. The sunlight was clear, the rays refracted through the glass into a prism of colors, dancing over his clothing, his face.

...

Three days later, Xiao Mo received confirmed news that Shen Shihan would take the second action.

That evening after nine, Shen Chi took Xiao Mo towards the dock.

They found a very concealed spot near the dock with an excellent view, hiding there, unseen by anyone.

But what Shen Chi didn’t expect was that Mo Shuifu would call him for the second time that night.

"Fourth Young Master, do you have any news about Shihan? He hasn’t called me for several days," Mo Shuifu said anxiously.

"I’m not too sure," replied Shen Chi.

"I’m really worried." Mo Shuifu’s voice was choked up, "I don’t know where he is, I’m a bit panicked..."

"Don’t worry, I’ll have someone look for him again," Shen Chi said lightly.

"Fourth Young Master, thank you," Mo Shuifu nodded.

"It’s nothing."

Shen Chi felt emotional, unsure if Shen Shihan knew about Mo Shuifu’s pregnancy, why didn’t he return her call? Was he afraid of being distracted? Afraid that after hearing Mo Shuifu’s voice, he would lose his resolve?

Shen Chi thought the latter was more likely.

After hanging up with Mo Shuifu, Shen Chi fell silent.

The car journeyed on, and Shen Chi and Xiao Mo kept receiving calls from their subordinates, reporting the situation in real-time!

Images flashed rapidly through Shen Chi’s mind, and at the same time, he clenched the handgun at his waist.

By the time they were ambushed near the docks, it was already half-past ten at night, with only some inconsequential people shipping goods, and the sea roared tumultuously.

Waves after waves struck the rocks, making a "whooshing" sound!
