Chapter 890 You Are No Longer Fighting Alone
As the name suggests, maternal relatives are the female relatives of the host family.
These mothers and wives formed a huge branch of the main family outside the main surname, and were vassal forces that consolidated the status and power of the main family.
It is said that if a person achieves enlightenment, a chicken or a dog will ascend to heaven.
No matter how powerful the main family is, sometimes the power of the vassal relatives cannot be underestimated.
The Mu family, from the only information Li Xiangnan had obtained so far, was definitely one of those hidden big families and big forces that was scary enough just by revealing the tip of the iceberg!
Naturally, there are many foreign relatives and families that are vassal states of the Mu family.
"The Zhu family is one of the in-laws of the Mu family!"
Song Yi said that the evening breeze was a bit cold, so she unconsciously tightened her arms around her arms.
I don’t know if it was because she felt a little cold when talking about the Mu family, or if it was just the cold weather.
"Put it on! Don't get frozen!"
Suddenly, there was a weight on her shoulders. Song Yi turned around in surprise and saw that Li Xiangnan had taken off his grey coat and put it on her shoulders. She smiled, reached out to gather her hair, and said, "Thank you!"
"Did you find out?" Li Xiangnan raised his eyebrows.
"Yes!" Song Yi said frankly, "There are people from the Song family in Hongbin Building! As soon as you entered the Shancha Private Room on the third floor, I immediately knew who was in the room! Zhu Xuanlong's son-in-law's surname is Mu!"
Li Xiangnan recalled Zhu Xuanlong's attitude towards him at night. Considering that he was a relative of the Mu family, he immediately understood, "No wonder this kid's attitude towards me at night was quite mysterious! It seems that he noticed me not only because I've been in the limelight recently!"
"I don't know about that, but it's worth being vigilant!" Song Yi reminded.
Li Xiangnan nodded without commenting.
Soon he asked again, "Besides the Zhu family, who are the other relatives of the Mu family?"
"Not sure!" Song Yi shook her head. "We can only trace back the stranger you know and find out if he has any connection with the Mu family!"
"We can't investigate Mu's family directly?" Li Xiangnan frowned.
"They are sneakier than rabbits!"
"Don't worry! Locard's Law of Material Exchange tells us that every crime scene will leave traces! No matter how good the Mu family is at hiding their tracks, as long as they come into contact with people, they will definitely leave traces in every corner of society! What we have to do now is to be patient! We will definitely find out the truth about why my grandma disappeared!"
Li Xiangnan is very confident.
"Yeah!" Song Yi closed her eyes and her mind calmed down.
"But your reminder is very timely. The Zhu family's in-laws are very important! Damn it, I suspect that the Mu family has placed many important chess pieces in some important and key positions! Look at Zhu Xuanlong's position. Although his position is not high, his role is very important! This is the most terrifying thing! When these chess pieces are linked together, a terrible chain reaction will occur!"
It is said that it is easy to hide from the King of Hell but difficult to deal with little ghosts.
The incident with Jiang Xingwang tonight was a very vivid example, and it was even more obvious when it came to Zhu Xuanlong.
With a note, Jiang Xingwang could lower himself to drink with him.
If Zhu Xuanlong really blocks his land procedures in the future, what will he do then?
Decision-making on major projects is the job of those leaders, but when it comes to specific implementation, these directors and section chiefs are the actual people in charge.
From the approval of a project, to the preliminary environmental assessment, to industrial and commercial taxation, quality inspection and fire protection, to the start of construction and final acceptance, people like Zhu Xuanlong pop up from time to time throughout the entire process...
Li Xiangnan had already foreseen the difficulties in the upcoming work with his own eyes.
"But fortunately, we can deal with any enemy with our own strength. Just like today, with my shitty luck and your participation, I will definitely be able to build bridges over any mountain and water I encounter, and beat all these evil spirits to death!"
Song Yi turned around and looked at him, and sincerely warned him: "At the same time, I also want to remind you that now is different from the past. You are no longer fighting alone! Don't take everything on yourself! You still have me!"
"..."
Li Xiangnan turned his head and looked directly into her eyes, and saw firm support and unspeakable trust in those clear black and white peach blossom eyes. He opened his mouth but in the end couldn't utter a word of thanks, and could only nod heavily.
Song Yi smiled and said, "Let's go. You drank too much today! Go home and wake up! If you come back late, I'm afraid Ruobai will cause trouble for me! I said, you drank so much, how come you woke up so quickly?"
As she spoke, she supported Li Xiangnan and walked under the bridge. Seeing Song Zimo sitting on the hood smoking, she waved to him.
"What are you talking about? My waist is almost purple from pinching myself! From now on, I need to ask my dad to make more kudzu root hangover pills to put in my pocket!"
"Hahaha!" Song Yi covered her mouth and laughed.
Half an hour later, Li Xiangnan was already lying on his bed at home.
Qin Ruobai wiped his body with a hot towel and complained, "Zimo said you drank at least two kilograms of wine. Did you vomit? Don't hold it in. If you want to vomit, just vomit!"
"I vomited! It was all eaten by fish!" Li Xiangnan said vaguely.
Qin Ruobai got out of bed, washed the towel, and brought a bowl of hot kudzu root soup, helping him up, "Drink it first, warm your stomach before going to sleep!"
Li Xiangnan drank half a bowl of wine in one breath. The alcohol took over his head and he fell asleep on the bed.
I slept until dawn, opened my eyes, and saw that the sun was already shining on my butt outside. I stood up and looked around, but there was no one in the room.
I touched my watch and saw that it was already half past eight!
Startled, Li Xiangnan quickly got dressed and got up. As soon as he opened the door and was about to go next door for breakfast, he saw Wu Mao sitting at the door reading a book.
"Xiao Wu, why are you here?"
"Brother Nan!" Wu Mao stood up with a shy grin, scratching his head and said, "My sister-in-law saw Brother Cui and told me to come and get the books! She bought me some exercise books for improvement!"
Looking down, Li Xiangnan indeed saw a lot of books on the bench next to him, so he patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Study hard, the college entrance examination is just over a month away! Since you have signed up, study hard! If you don't understand anything, remember to come to school to find me!"
"Know it!"
Wu Mao greeted everyone excitedly and left happily.
After Li Xiangnan finished his breakfast next door, he took a taxi at the alley entrance to go to the street next to the Ministry of Health to pick up his bicycle which he had parked there yesterday. After that, he hurried back to the ministry.
As soon as he stepped onto the steps, he saw a young man looking at him in confusion.
"Are you Comrade Li Xiangnan?"
Li Xiangnan was stunned, nodded, and asked in confusion: "I am, who are you?"
"Section Chief Jiang went to Dongcheng for an inspection. He told me to give you these documents!"
"Oh, thank you, thank you!"
Upon hearing this, Li Xiangnan grinned, took the document and took a look, it was indeed the drug approval application from Nianwei Hospital.
Looking at the deadline again, the one- to three-year period for the first trial has become a five-year period!
"Comrade, please thank Section Chief Jiang for me! Tell Section Chief Jiang that I want to treat him to a meal..."
"No need! Section Chief Jiang said that he will visit Nianwei Hospital when he is free. Just have a simple meal then. Asking you to hurry back and work hard is the best way to repay him!"
Li Xiangnan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said seriously: "Thank Chief Jiang for me!"
"goodbye!"
Turning around and walking down the stairs, Li Xiangnan put the document into his briefcase. He took a breath of the air outside the health department entrance and felt refreshed.
Damn, this meal was not eaten in vain, and this wine was not drunk in vain!
Feeling relieved, he rode his bike quickly towards Nianwei Hospital.
