Chapter 96 Doubt

On the way back, Gu Ruixin's mind was full of questions. She took out her phone and dialed Jin Mochen's number hesitantly, "Mr. Jin, Qiqi, has anything happened recently?"

"Rui Xin, what are you asking? I don't understand." Jin Mochen was also confused on the other end of the phone.

"Then do you know the northern mineral vein?" Gu Ruixin asked cautiously.

Jin Mochen immediately put away his lazy look and stood up from the sofa. "Northern mineral vein? Gu Ruixin, where did you hear that?"

Jin Mochen's sudden serious voice made Gu Rui's heart tremble, "I heard grandpa mention it by chance."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true. I'm just curious. When I saw Grandpa and Qiqi talking about this, I became curious and thought maybe you would know, so I asked." Gu Ruixin was in a hurry and spoke a mixture of truth and lies.

"No problem." Jin Mochen smiled, "Don't think too much. Isn't there a new promotion recently? I think you are just too nervous and your nerves are too tense."

"You need to relax. Hire a few more caregivers for your brother, and don't worry too much."

Jin Mochen changed the subject as usual and blocked all the questions that Gu Ruixin wanted to ask.

Gu Ruixin hung up the phone and returned to the ward in a restless mood. Gu Chen had opened the small desk at some point and placed the computer in front of him. He was working again, looking serious and focused.

"Brother, what is the relationship between grandpa and the Jin family?" Gu Ruixin returned to the ward and continued to ask questions.

The doubts in my mind just now have not been resolved until now.

Gu Chen looked away from the computer, "What happened? Rui Xin?"

He frowned at the sudden question, "Why did you suddenly mention the Jin family? Did Jin Mochen say something?"

When it comes to the Jin family, the first person he thinks of is Jin Mochen.

"No!" Gu Ruixin shook her head, hesitating whether to say it out loud. She had been eavesdropping behind Grandpa and Qiqi, which was not a glorious thing.

"Just say it. You've already said it and started. Do you still want to take it back?" Gu Chen closed his computer, leaned against the head of the bed, and looked at the troubled Gu Ruixin.

Gu Ruixin glanced in the direction of the door, took a few steps, closed the door, and then walked in front of Gu Chen.

Such an abnormal behavior made Gu Chen realize that something was wrong. "What happened?"

"Brother, Qiqi went to look for grandpa just now. I was worried, so I followed her all the way." Gu Ruixin spoke hesitantly, looking at Gu Chen's face tentatively.

"You were eavesdropping?" Gu Chen pointed it out with one glance.

"No, no!" Gu Ruixin denied subconsciously, but surrendered under Gu Chen's gaze after a while, "Brother, I was wrong. I just felt that there seemed to be something between Grandpa and Qiqi that they were hiding from us, and I was a little worried, so I followed them."

"Even you think so." Gu Chen's face darkened. He originally thought that he was the only one who thought too much, but now even Gu Ruixin had such a guess.

Gu Ruixin grew up under protection and knew very little about the ways of the world. Now that she has proposed this idea, it is obvious that there is really something going on between Su Qiqi and her grandfather that they don't know.

"Brother, have you noticed it a long time ago?"

"It's just a guess." Gu Chen patted the chair next to him, "Sit down and tell me what you heard."

"I was actually quite far away and didn't hear clearly, but I vaguely heard the Jin family and the northern mineral vein mentioned. Brother, are we cooperating with the Jin family?" Gu Ruixin asked innocently. When the northern mineral vein was mentioned, Gu Chen suddenly woke up.

"Three years ago, we signed a contract with the Jin family and obtained the mining rights to a part of the mineral veins in the north." Gu Chen explained, "It is also because of the mineral vein resources that the Gu family can have flexible operating funds."

"Then why did grandpa tell Xixi all this? What does this have to do with Xixi?" Gu Ruixin was a little worried. "Brother, don't you think something has happened to Xixi?"

"Jin family, did the Jin family cause trouble for Qiqi?"

Gu Ruixin couldn't connect the relationship between the Jin family and Su Qiqi in her mind.

Gu Chen was also at a loss.

"Have you asked Jin Mochen? What is his relationship with Qiqi?" The only relationship between Su Qiqi and the Jin family, the contact person he could think of was Jin Mochen.

The relationship between the two seemed to be very familiar, but now that I think about it, it was definitely not just a simple acquaintance.

"I've asked before." Gu Ruixin recalled, "I thought Mr. Jin liked Xixi, but he denied it and even joked with me. He only cared about Xixi like an elder."

"Don't you think he is just talking nonsense? He doesn't even consider the reality when he speaks. He is only four or five years older than Jin Qian, but he is already talking about the seniority of the elders."

Elders to juniors? Gu Chen keenly grasped the wrongness in the words.

"How's the conversation between Grandpa and Qiqi going?" Gu Chen was silent for a moment, then raised his eyes and asked.

"I can't see clearly, but what I heard seemed a bit heavy. It must be something important." Gu Rui was uneasy, her eyes filled with worry about Su Qiqi.

"I'm just afraid that something might have happened to Xiqi, and she hasn't said anything and has been dealing with it on her own. You know she has always had her own ideas and is very stubborn. Now that she's divorced you, she wouldn't be willing to tell me if she really encountered any difficulties." Gu Ruixin pouted and explained.

Gu Chen looked at the ceiling of the ward and said, "What you heard today must be kept secret for now. Don't tell her. I will send someone to investigate the matter about the Jin family and the mineral vein. Just pretend that you heard nothing today and don't ask Grandpa!"

"Okay!" Gu Ruixin nodded, "Brother, I believe you, but if anything really happens to Qiqi, you must tell me!"

"Don't worry, I'll tell you." Gu Chen said, pointing to the lunch box on the table, "Throw away the garbage!"

Gu Ruixin sorted out the garbage, pushed the door and left. Gu Chen picked up the phone next to the pillow and called Lin Mo, "Help me check something!"

"Something must have happened at the northern mineral vein. Can you help me find out what exactly happened?" Gu Chen said in a low, hoarse voice.

The northern mineral vein is located in the northern part of China, bordering the northern country. It is originally a dangerous area. It was previously controlled by the Jin family, so it was considered safe.

But it is precisely at the critical point that there are some accidental transactions, weapons are rampant, and if you are not careful, your life may be lost.

He was more worried about Su Qiqi's connection with the mineral vein.

"Oh my god, brother, you're already in the hospital, and you're still concerned about work!" Lin Mo raised his voice, "Can't you just take a break?"

"Have you talked enough nonsense? Let me ask you how long it will take for you to find out the information!" Gu Chen was too lazy to waste time with him.

"The north is quite far from here, maybe three days at the shortest and a week at the closest."

"Three days," Gu Chen calmed down, "In three days, I want to know the news."
