Since Zhi Hei didn't listen to Shen Qi's full sentence, he thought something bad may have happened to Shi Xue. When he reached her room, he was panting out breath and shaking Chen Mu's shoulder, "h..h.how is she? Wha..what's wrong?"
Chen Mu was confused as to why he was thinking that something urgent happened. He questioned, "Didn't Shen Qi tell you that the medicine shows improvement to her condition? She's more stabled now and shows signs of waking up too. Except, I can't estimate when she would wake up. You should talk to her more to trigger her reactions."
He had soothed the anxious man's back before his spotlight was once again taken by the girl in bed. Chen Mu let out a sigh in a joking manner and said, "see? Wives over bros~ It's a cruel reality, sniff. My baby is now all grown up."
He turned towards Shen Qi and patted his shoulder, "As a mother, I know it'll be hard for you to face it. Don't worry, wife, you still have me." Shen Qi raised his hand and pinched the back of the hand that was on his shoulder, "why the hell am I the bottom- no, I mean, woman in this relationship?"
"Oh! So, you want to be the top. Sure~ we can be in any position that you like." Chen Mu laughed and rubbed the pinkish area where he was pinched.
"I'll tell your Susu about what you said!"
"My Susu will be so open minded about it."
"Oh yeah? Then let's see about it~ Hand over your phone." Shen Qi tried to grab his cellphone, but failed. Zhi Hei took the phone from their hands and said, "back to serious business. You two are too old for this. How will you teach your children in the future?"
"Well... we aren't married yet...." The two of them looked at Zhi Hei with pitiful eyes.
"I'll talk to Hui Han about what happened just now." Instead of falling for their beauty tricks, he used Shen Qi's weakness.
Hearing his threat, Shen Qi raised his arms up, "Yeah, Chen Mu! How old are you? Such childishness, sheesh."
Chen Mu went speechless towards these two guys. After a moment of silence, Zhi Hei was about to hand the phone back to Chen Mu when he remembered what Li Teng had said in the dungeon.
"Chen Mu, since Ariana could find the erased footages and other information that may take up days to dig up, could she help me with another favor?"
Zhi Hei needed to know what the chip was and why those people wanted to obtain it. If it is according to what Li Teng had described earlier, this chip could make everyone come after Shi Xue. Therefore, he must destroy it before anyone finds traces leading to her.
Chen Mu nodded, "I could try." He pressed the call icon on his phone next to Shi Xue's name.
Once the call went through on Susu's side, Ariana took over while Chen Mu put Zhi Hei on the phone.
"Hello, Miss Xu. This is Huang Zhi Hei, and I wanted to personally thank you for sharing such useful documents."
"No problem. I believe this is not the only reason why Mister Huang wanted to contact me about." A small smile curved on his face as he had expected such straightforward response from her.
"Smart. Thanks to your valuable information, I have captured Li Teng and made him pay for his deeds. As for Tian Guo Min, he is also being held captive and will be facing his doom soon. The assassin is on the run, but my guards should catch him eventually. While I was dealing with Li Teng, he mentioned a chip that a group of people were searching for. Perhaps you may be able to answer some questions that I have."
Hearing his curious tone, she leaned back against her chair and paused from typing her coding system, "I would love to assist in any possible methods that is within my capabilities. Unfortunately, anything regarding this chip is not within the subject that I can disclose about. I could only ask Mister Huang to be careful of the group of people."
"I appreciate your honesty in this matter. I'll keep in mind of the people that Li Teng had named before he had met his fate. I understand that you have your own difficulties, but my friend was injured partly because of this chip. In order to keep her safe, it is necessary for me to obtain more details about this chip."
Since he finally reunited with Shi Xue, he wasn't going to easily back down from finding out anything that may be related to her attack.
A soft sigh could be heard over the phone. Ariana tapped her fingers on the keyboard, "As expected from the CEO of Huang Corps. Since you are interested in the chip, then I can only refer you to back to Grandpa Xia. Without his word, I will not disclose any further information associated with the chip that you're talking about."
Tossing the ball back to Grandpa Xia was one of her fortes. Over the years, she learned to let him take care of complicated explanations. Of course, these were very rare cases. Zhi Hei was someone who Professor Luo Xia had met and helped before. Since this chip is related to his privacy, she could only throw the man back at the elderly man.
"Alright. Thank you for your advice. I'll pass the phone back to Chen Mu." Zhi Hei understood the importance behind the chip for her to reject him. Since she already said it clearly that he must gain Professor Luo Xia's permission, there was nothing he could do.
"No problem and good luck with your hunt down. Let me know if you can't trace the assassin." Ariana handed the phone back to Susu and resumed her typing on the laptop. Lily and Susu shrugged when they exchanged glances at each other. For the remainder of the call, Chen Mu was reminding Susu about things that she would normally forget. Near the end of the call, he told Susu that he would be back the next day to check up on her.
Since Shi Xue's condition was considered stabled, he decided to spend some time in the lab to continue researching for a better formula for Susu's medicine. Zhi Hei also agreed and said he would call him if there are any changes to Shi Xue.
