The Mirror Palace is located on the west side of Kunming Lake West Embankment, commonly known as the Guild City.

So this lake, southwest of Lake Kunming, is also known as Lake Guncheng.

With a diameter of about 60 metres, the outer ring of the mirror is a circular water fortress that, unfortunately, has been destroyed during the Jubilee, leaving only a desolate view of the ruins of the island.

Tuancheng Lake is the end of the north-south water adjustment project and the main drinking water source in Shanghai.

Due to the large number of people coming here for wild swimming, in order to protect the water source, the government, after several considerations, can only invest tens of millions of dollars in raising and encrypting the fence at the expense of destroying the landscape of Yihe Garden and depriving tourists of the view, thus prohibiting tourists from entering the house, thus also making it difficult for the view of Tuancheng Lake to be reproduced in front of the public.

There are no private cruise ships on Lake Kunming, so you can either sneak over the fence and swim past it or just step on the ice when the winter lake freezes.

It's been sealed off for a long time, and it's a little desolate.

Plus it's late, the island is bustling with trees and claws that block most of the moonlight, so it looks gloomy and particularly scary.

Chen Xi grabbed the little guy and gently stepped onto Zhimingkang Island. Face to face, he saw a burnt tree. His speckled shadow echoed the scarred wall behind him. Through the roots of the tree, he could see the shadow of the remote Jade Springs Mountain Treasure Tower.

This place is too remote and shady, so the little guy immediately got scared and could only shrink into Chen Xihuai's arms as much as possible. The little hand held Chen Xi tightly, and the palms were even colder.

This also caused Chen Xi to frown slightly.

I thought the Mirror Palace was a good place. I didn't expect it to arrive before realizing that it was just a desolate ruin.

It was not good to scare the child, so Chen Xi placed her left hand gently on the little guy's head and held her ready to leave.

Before leaving, however, Chen Xi suddenly raised his head and slowly left after a thoughtful look at the abandoned wall, which was more than 10 meters high.

Back to the hotel.

The little guy was a little upset, probably scared.

Even when Chen Xi said to play games with her, she couldn't bring up the excitement.

Chen Xi couldn't help but sit on the bed and tell her the fairy tale of Andersen.

The story doesn't matter. It's important to have your dad around.

So the little guy wrapped in a soft quilt, lay in Chen Xihuai's arms, listened to him whisper the story, finally slowly relaxed, then fell asleep.

The next day, it's not dawn yet.

Maybe she was scared last night, so the little guy was having a nightmare. Everyone wasn't awake yet, so she waved her little hand confused and muttered: “Psst... Psst...”

“Daddy's here. ”

Chen Xidi sat beside her on her knees. After hearing her scream, she immediately looked at her condition and put her hand on the little guy's forehead. She said softly: "Daddy is here, baby, don't be afraid...”

Perhaps Chen Xi's consolation worked. The little guy clutched Chen Xi's wrist and then changed position to continue to snore and fall asleep.

Chen Xi's wrist was not easy to grasp, so she could only hold this unwieldy position and quietly look at the little guy's sleeping face.

His eyes were tender and filled with a feeling called Father's Love.

……

China Sea.

Brocade City Park.

Ning Zhongguo's study.

Lao Hu sat quietly on the sofa waiting for Ning Zhongguo to reply.

He followed Ning Zhongguo when he was 18 years old, and has been around for more than 20 years now.

And he, from the very beginning, also a vault keeper, slowly climbed to the position of deputy general manager of China Ocean Group.

Lao Hu is not very cultured. He came out of junior high to work after dropping out of school. Without the promotion of Ning Zhongguo, he would never have made it to this point.

So in the heart of Lao Hu, Ning Zhongguo was his benefactor and also gave him the opportunity to prove the value of his life.

After hearing Lao Hu's report, Ning Zhongguo frowned slightly.

After careful consideration, Ning Zhongguo asked: “Are you sure the news is true? ”

Rumored, Hu nodded immediately and said with great certainty: “Absolutely true. Xu Wei must have Mr. Chen's medicine, but I am not sure how much exactly..."

“How did he find Mr. Chen? ”

After that, without waiting for Lao Hu to answer, Ning Zhongguo suddenly seemed to think of something, and suddenly shook his head and laughed.

After shaking his head gently, he was like an emotion. He sighed softly: “Except for you, only old Liu and Qiutong knew that Mr. Chen existed. Old Liu suddenly took a leave yesterday, I thought he had some urgent business to deal with... I really didn't expect that old Liu would betray me one day...”

Hu didn't say anything.

Although he is the vice president, Old Liu is the driver, but in comparison, Old Liu's qualifications can be deeper than his.

Ning Zhongguo never loses his heart.

Old Buddha wanted to climb up, so Ning Zhongguo sat him in the vice president's position, after Ning Qiutong in the Ocean Group.

Old Liu didn't have such a heavy career. Ning Zhongguo tried to reassign him many times. Old Liu laughed and excused himself.

So Ning Zhongguo can only seal him a big red envelope every year, which is no thicker than Lao Hu's annual salary.

Ning Zhongguo was sentimental for a while, but did not seem to take this matter too seriously.

After a gentle sip of tea, he seemed to say casually: “That's it, Xu Wei's methods are probably too powerful. Old Liu may have something to hide... Anyway, you can handle it and you won't have to ask me about it anymore. ”

“Okay.”

Rumor nodded.

In his slightly narrowed eyes, he glistened through a cold light.

After talking about Old Liu, Ning Zhongguo thought about it again before gently dropping the teacup.

After a moment of silence, he said to Old Bullshit again: “Xu Wei should have found Mr. Chen before he went to Beijing... so put the company's affairs aside first, I will arrange two important tasks for you. ”

“You say. ”

“The first task, starting today, is to look for a woman named Qin Ruoying. This woman is Mr. Chen's partner. She has been missing for three years. The last time she appeared in Shanghai, Mr. Chen is presumably going to visit her this time. However, I think you can start with the University of China... This woman's identity should not be simple, so there is no ceiling on the mission budget. When you need to spend money, you can go to the financial accounts. If you encounter any difficulties, let me know in a timely manner and I will show up. ”

“Yes.”

“Second task…”

Speaking of which, Ning Zhongguo suddenly laughed.

Later, he smiled slightly on his face and said softly: “Since Xu Wei wants to put a foot on my plate, let's see if he can squeeze in...”
