Chapter 194: Chapter 193 Are You Also Participating in the Bidding?

“Grandfather, is this Lady Hai really a friend of Mr. Shen Yun from Capital City,” Su Qing asked with some doubt, “How did you get in touch with her?”

Old Sir Su glanced at Su Qing. Now that the bid was nearly secure, he was in a good mood and chuckled, “Don’t worry. I used an absolutely reliable friend to make the connection, and I got to know a high-level executive in the Tenggui Group. This Lady Hai was introduced to me by that executive, and there’s no mistake.”

Still, Su Qing felt something wasn’t right, “What is this Lady Hai’s real name? What is her relationship with Mr. Shen?”

Old Sir Su turned and walked back.

Previously, Su Qing was busy with the national competition and hadn’t had much time to talk about this issue. Now that there was time, Old Sir Su was willing to explain more, “Lady Hai’s real name is Ling Gui. She’s called Lady Hai because she’s from Hai Dou. When I was in Hai Dou, I also inquired through other channels. It turns out that Mr. Shen Yun, the CEO of Tenggui Group, indeed has a girlfriend he treasures dearly. He’s always been reluctant to make her public, so people don’t know much about her, only that there’s the charater ’Gui’ in her name.”

Having said this, Old Sir Su sighed, “At first, she was unwilling to come to Capital City because it was too far. It took a lot of effort to finally persuade her.”

With this, all the pieces of information seemed to fit together.

Su Qing pursed his lips and said nothing more.

Moreover, the moment Old Sir Su mentioned the character “Gui,” Chi Gui’s figure emerged inexplicably in his mind…

Su Qing paused, then asked, “Grandfather, and that Chi Gui…”

Old Sir Su waved his hand, “Once we secure the project with Tenggui Group, the Su Family’s status in Capital City will rise several levels. Those insignificant people can be left be. The pressing matter now is to take good care of Lady Hai.”

Su Qing nodded.

The next day.

Chi Guihe, Chu Jia, and Yi Rui all took a leave of absence from Mr. Liu to visit Su Niannian’s mother at the hospital.

Xia Yong, having heard from Su Niannian that Chi Gui was coming, drove to Capital City early to pick them up for the hospital.

“You didn’t have to go to all this trouble, we could have taken a taxi ourselves,” Chi Gui said politely as she got into the car, greeting Xia Yong.

Chu Jia and Yi Rui also greeted him in turn.

Xia Yong smiled, “You’ve helped our family so much, I don’t even know how to thank you… how could I let you take a taxi?”

Chi Gui said nothing further.

Chu Jia and Yi Rui, not understanding, looked at Chi Gui and then at Xia Yong, not daring to speak.

After two hours on the road, they finally arrived at the sanatorium.

Upon entering, Chu Jia and Yi Rui were immediately struck by the excellent environment inside and, thinking back to the conversation from earlier, they began to understand something.

Going up in the elevator, their gazes toward Chi Gui changed.

Chi Gui herself didn’t feel anything different, and with a normal expression, followed Xia Yong to the hospital room.

Su Niannian was at her mother’s bedside. Mrs. Su had woken up but was still rather weak.

Chi Gui entered the room and politely greeted Mrs. Su.

“Sister Chi, please sit,” Su Niannian said, standing up to offer her seat.

Though Mrs. Su now appeared more delicate due to thinness, it did not diminish her graceful demeanor.

None of the three visitors sat down; instead, they stood by the bed, keeping Mrs. Su company in conversation.

Chi Gui noticed a bid document on the table next to the bed with a title that seemed related to the Tenggui Group’s current project.

With an indifferent look, she glanced at Xia Yong, “Are you also participating in the Tenggui Group’s bid?”

Xia Yong was taken aback, noticing the bid document he had casually placed on the table. He gave an awkward smile, “Ah, yes…”

He said no more.

Mrs. Su’s condition wasn’t great, and she fell asleep after talking for a bit.

Chi Gui and her two companions took their leave.

Xia Yong drove the three back.

After arriving at the hotel, Xia Yong took a box of things out of the trunk.
