Arknights, my information is updated every day

"In order to improve Longmen's cityscape, Governor Wei intends to demolish the old urban area. I want to invest in real estate!"

Compared to Denise's, Godfrey's investments were not as extensive.

However, it has actively responded to the Governor's latest policy and will certainly receive a series of support from the Longmen Municipal Government during the implementation process. It can be said that it is a sure win.

Everyone nodded repeatedly and praised the project highly.

Then, everyone's attention naturally turned to Alex and Beatrix.

Alex was the first to give in to the pressure and expressed his thoughts hesitantly.

"I'm studying high-energy physics at Tremont Polytechnic Institute. I want to start my own research company like my senior from the same college, Christine, and develop more advanced technologies!"

There was a flash of surprise in Godfrey's eyes. He felt that Alex was giving up the competition by doing this.

After all, scientific research is not something that can produce results in a short period of time, unless he has mastered some new technology that can be directly applied.

But since he didn't say it, maybe it still doesn't exist.

In short, you still have to find a way to confirm it to avoid an accidental rollover due to misjudgment.

"Brother Alex, if you're short on funding for your experiments, feel free to come see me anytime." Denise extended an olive branch, "As long as your project passes my review, I'm happy to support the development of high-tech."

Alex's face suddenly showed gratitude, as if he had found a confidant.

Now that we have confirmed that Alex is not a threat, we must quickly win him over.

Others reacted indifferently to Alex's performance.

With two outstanding older brothers and sisters, he seems too mediocre.

If the scientific research is successful, it's fine. If it fails, there will be nothing. The uncertainty is too great.

While everyone was still talking about Alex, Beatrix glanced around.

Now I am the only one left, and it seems I can't escape.

Or, just make up a project?

But because he was not prepared, the little tiger felt his brain was empty.

I have been thinking about the case all the time and haven't given much thought to business matters.

Otherwise, why not just take this opportunity to come clean?

Anyway, the criminal evidence I have now is enough to win the agreement with my father.

In this case, the fact that I joined the Imperial Guard Bureau will sooner or later be known to my family. Thinking of this, there is really nothing to hide.

So the little tiger bravely told the truth.

"Sorry, I've already decided to become a police officer. I won't participate in this competition anymore."

The entire banquet hall fell silent in an instant, and everyone stared at Beatrix, digesting what she had just said.

Ten seconds later, a second-generation member who was over fifty years old stood up and scolded loudly.

"Beatrix, what on earth do you, an unworthy descendant, think of the competition for the head of the family? A game of playing house?"

Immediately afterwards, the hall exploded like a boiling pot, with overwhelming accusations.

"Smith! How on earth do you educate your children?"

"Beatrix, are you trying to escape this test? Aren't you ashamed?"

Seeing that things were not going well, Denise quickly stepped forward to smooth things over: "Sister Beatrix probably just wanted to liven up the atmosphere..."

"No, I want to join the Royal Guards as a police officer!"

Beatrix faced all the accusations with her head held high. She had long expected to encounter such a bad situation.

I don't expect this group of mediocre elders to understand my beliefs, let alone support them.

However, the actual situation was far worse than she imagined.

"The Imperial Guard? They're just a dog kept by Governor Wei and our Shi Huaiya family!"

"Beatrix! As the heir of the Shihuaiya family, you are actually stooping to being a dog? You are bringing shame to the family!!"

Beatrix's nonsense caused an uproar within the Shihuaiya family.

But when Smith pushed Adams in a wheelchair, the noisy banquet hall fell silent in an instant.

Facing Adams' slightly cloudy gaze, everyone present subconsciously lowered their heads, their bodies tense and stiff. The invisible pressure was like a mountain, making it hard for everyone to breathe.

"mob……"

Adams' weak voice rang out, causing everyone to shudder without exception.

Long before Godfrey stepped forward to manipulate the situation, Adams had already arrived at the door of the banquet hall and naturally saw the whole farce.

I can only say that I'm lucky I'm not dead yet.

Otherwise, the Shi Huaiya family will be divided by internal strife like Victoria!

By then, forget about prosperity, we will just be thankful that the family can survive in the hands of these idiots.

As for those younger generations, Adams was too lazy to comment on them one by one.

Compared with their mediocre and incompetent parents, they do have certain talents, but it is far from enough.

On the contrary, his eldest granddaughter Beatrix seems to be quite interesting.

However, to see whether it is real gold or scrap iron, we need to put more pressure on it.

"Your courage is commendable, but it's a pity you have no cunning—you are an unworthy descendant."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone glanced at Beatrix at the same time.

The little tiger felt like he was falling into an ice cellar, and the nightmare from more than ten years ago came back again!

"Ahhhh! That sentence again! That sentence again! Chen Xiu, he definitely said it on purpose!!"

Shi Huaiya sat in Chen Xiu's arms, breathing heavily, her body twisting wildly due to excitement, and her tail wagging wildly.

Chen Xiuru stroked the little tiger's back from top to bottom like coaxing a cat, soothing her emotions.

"So, you broke down because of this sentence?"

Although these words were a bit harsh, they shouldn't make the little tiger cry so miserably, right?

"Yes!" Shi Huaiya nodded heavily: "You don't know how much damage this sentence has done to me!"

Without waiting for Chen Xiu to ask, Miss Feilin started complaining to herself.

"In our family, my grandfather is the most important person! From childhood to adulthood, the words I heard most often were things like 'Don't do this, Grandpa said so', 'Don't play with so-and-so, Grandpa doesn't like it', and 'This is what Grandpa meant'!"

"Even though I asked my father many times why, he always said that we should just listen to your grandfather! Other than that, there is no reason! No excuse!"

"When I was twelve years old, my grandfather suddenly became seriously ill."

"At that time, the entire family went to the ward to see him. I don't know what I was thinking at the time, but I actually laughed out loud in that situation... Maybe I felt that the terrifying shadow that weighed on everyone's heads was finally about to die."

Chen Xiu blinked and guessed, "Then, your grandfather said that to you just now?"

Shi Huaiya nodded slightly, which made Chen Xiu speechless.

"Why do I feel that what your grandfather said is quite right?"

Shi Huaiya immediately became stressed out like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

"I was still young at the time! How could I possibly be that cunning? And after that, my life was miserable. People kept bringing this up, and even now I'm still being ostracized by my family!"

"What does this have to do with cunning? I think it's just a matter of basic courtesy." Chen Xiu didn't intend to give Shi Huaiya face: "To be able to laugh out loud at that time, it seems that you really don't respect your grandfather."

The tiger's ears stood up, and Shi Huaiya was speechless.

When I think about it this way, I realize that I am really an unfilial daughter who has forgotten her ancestors.

"What else?" Chen Xiu continued to probe: "You're crying for more than just this. This kind of thing might break your defenses, but it won't make you lose your mind and panic to the point of looking for a solid support."

The little tiger nestled in Chen Xiu's arms, his hands hanging around his neck, his long tail limp and powerless like a caterpillar.

"Chen Xiu, do you think I still have a chance to become a police officer? If Grandpa doesn't like what I'm doing, he can just find time to call Governor Wei..."

Well, this is a tricky question indeed.

No wonder Shi Huaiya was so panicked. It turned out that he was facing a world-class BOSS directly.

"If your grandfather objects, then the only way for you to achieve your wish is to gain Governor Wei's support..."

"So, what should be done?"

The little tiger looked at Chen Xiu with hope, just like Nobita looking at Doraemon.

"Uh, is this a problem I can solve?" Chen Xiu almost gave up. "Do you think I can go and negotiate with Governor Wei?"

The tiger ears drooped dejectedly, and Shi Huaiya became dejected.

"There's always a way out," Chen Xiu said, trying to console him. "Let's do our best to finish the case at hand. You don't want to see a case you've put so much effort into fail, do you? Governor Wei has a keen eye for talent, and perhaps he'll recognize your talents."

Shi Huaiya thought about it and felt that this was indeed the case. The most important thing now was to handle the case well!

If you get what you want in the end, everyone will be happy. Even if you fail, there will be no regrets.

Seeing that the little tiger's mood had stabilized, Chen Xiu gestured, "It's so late, it's time to rest."

The original intention of saying this was to let Shi Huaiya wake up on her own, but who would have thought that she would go even further.

"Well, I don't want to walk by myself... carry me over~ Ouch--!!"

Chen Xiu didn't intend to indulge her this time. He suddenly stood up and made her fall to the ground.

"Ms. Shi, this kind of service is not included in our contract. I'm glad we didn't charge you for the psychological consultation just now."

Shi Huaiya rubbed her butt and pouted in dissatisfaction.

"You're the only one who dares to throw the sponsor to the ground. Who is Party A anyway?"

"Whoever needs something from others is Party B." Chen Xiu shrugged.

After returning to the room, the time had just passed midnight.

[Ding, daily information has been updated]

Chen Huijie has recently been worried about funding for the Special Investigations Team. Since Wei Yanwu intends to train her, the Imperial Guards, citing the budget as finalized, have asked her to first find a way to become self-reliant.

Xingxiong accidentally learned that you were related to both Chen Huijie and Shi Huaiya, and began to doubt your identity and purpose. Although he did consider whether you were sent by Wei Yanwu or Adams, they were unlikely to use a Sarkaz.

Liu Yuanshe had long since made up his mind to cut ties with Zhongyitang, and he accelerated his efforts after learning of Hu Ziheng's arrest. He Xuan was therefore unconcerned about obtaining intelligence from informants, believing you wouldn't be a threat to them.

[Today's Tao Cesium Intelligence: Texas's dissatisfaction with you has turned into joy. Missing you after not seeing you for a few days hasn't touched her enough, but if you gave her two swords...]

Chapter 58: Happy Enemies, a Match Made in Heaven (Please Read)

Chen Huijie is actually short of money!?

The first thing Chen Xiu thought of was the 20 million in Shi Huaiya's hands!

Anyway, the so-called competition for the head of the family doesn't stipulate any projects that cannot be invested in, so why not just invest in the Guards Bureau?

To be more precise, it is an investment in Chen Huijie!

Of course, in reality, Shi Huaiya seems to be bringing in money...

In this case, even if Adams calls Wei Yanwu, Old Wei should stand on the side of the little tiger.

After all, isn't giving money to Chen Huijie the same as giving money to him?

If all else fails, you can also instigate Ajie to go to Madam Wenyue and make a scene, crying about being poor.
