Chapter 599
Luo Chen had already arranged for people to do all the important things. He had nothing to do by himself, so he called the acquisition team led by Mu Binglan.
Because today is also a rest day during the negotiations with the Vista Group, they don't need to deal with the incident of Mu Binglan's absence from the negotiations.
Luo Chen met her acquisition team in the conference room where Mu Binglan had a meeting before.
The 12 people in the acquisition team have already received the notification from Mu Tiancheng, and they will follow Luo Chen's instructions for their next actions.
Luo Chen asked the acquisition team about the progress of the negotiations.
The acquisition team told Luo Chen that the Mu's Group has passed the first round of screening and has entered the next round. The possibility of successful acquisition is relatively high, but the overall progress is only nearly half, and it will take a week at the earliest time.
However, the acquisition team also expressed that if Mu Binglan was not around, they would lack confidence in the negotiations.
Luo Chen is confident that he can rescue Mu Binglan, so he asked the acquisition team to start tomorrow and continue to discuss the acquisition with Vesta Group normally, so that Mu Binglan can take over directly when he comes back.
Most of the few people in the acquisition team who have a good relationship with Mu Binglan in private know that Mu Binglan was kidnapped, so at this moment, they asked Luo Chen for the specific situation.
Luo Chen uniformly told the members of the acquisition team that Mu Binglan will come back soon, so they don't have to worry.
After dealing with the acquisition of the team, Luo Chen went back to the room.
Xu Xu was sitting in the room watching TV, and Luo Chen was also sitting on the sofa, waiting patiently.
Luo Chen can only wait now, waiting for news, no matter whether the news comes from Fang Yi, Xiao Tian, or Baimian.
The afternoon was quite boring, even tormenting. Luo Chen himself was fine and knew how to deal with it, but he saw Xu Wen impatiently pressing the remote control to change channels, as if he felt very unhappy because he was bored in the room and had nothing to do , so Luo Chen suggested to Xu Wen to go out for a walk.
When Xu Wen heard this, he immediately cheered and jumped up.
It was still raining heavily outside, but because of the lengthy and special rainy season in London, many ingenious designs came into being. For example, the Corinthia Hotel has a special garden for enjoying the rain scene.
Luo Chen and Xu Wen came to the Garden in the Rain.
Because of the terrorist incident that happened in Corinthia yesterday, the number of guests in the hotel has dropped sharply in the past two days. At this moment, there are only a few people in the garden in the rain, which can be counted on one hand.
Luo Chen took Xu Chen and walked in the garden.
There are many walkways in the garden, but these walkways are all made of glass. Walking on them, you can clearly see the heavy rain around you, as if you are in the rain, but you will not be wet by the rain.
Numerous flower beds are separated by these walkways, and the flowers in these flower beds are more delicate and dripping under the water of rain.
The rain hit the ground, the air was filled with the fragrance of soil, the wind was cool, and there were obviously tall buildings in front of them, but at this moment, they were covered in rain and mist, as if they had turned into mountains, while Luo Chen and Xu Wen felt I came to a country field by myself. This kind of wonderful enjoyment made the two of them relax a lot after being depressed for a long time.
It is also rainy weather, but sitting in the room has a completely different feeling from being in the rain.
Accompanied by the ticking sound of the rain, Luo Chen's boredom seemed to be washed away, and he felt extremely refreshed and comfortable at this moment.
The two of them finished walking, every place in the garden, when they were about to leave, Luo Chen asked Xu Fan.
"How? Is it better than staying in the room?"
Xu Fan looked at the hazy rain scene and the colorful garden in front of her, feeling a little reluctant to part, she squeezed Luo Chen's hand, nodded and said.
"Well, it's very beautiful, and I miss my hometown when it rains."
"Your hometown?"
Luo Chen was a little curious.
"Well, my hometown is in the south, and it often rains. Whenever it rained when I was a child, I would go out to see it. It's very beautiful."
After hearing this, Luo Chen didn't leave in a hurry, he pulled Xu Wen to stop by the garden, and watched for a while longer.
It was not until the evening that Luo Chen and Xu Wen left the Garden in the Rain, and they went to the restaurant of the hotel to have something to eat.
Luo Chen and Xu Wen's seats were next to the window, and through the window, one could coincidentally see the Garden in the Rain that they turned around just now.
When ordering food, Luo Chen saw that Xu Yan kept tilting his head, looking at the garden outside the window, with a sad expression on his face.
Luo Chen finished ordering, handed the menu to the waiter, and asked Xu Fan curiously.
"What's the matter, you don't seem to be very happy?"
Xu Wen turned around and smiled.
"I'm not unhappy, I just remembered the past."
Luo Chen shook the whiskey in his hand and took a sip. Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. Xu Chen seemed to have thought of some unpleasant memories, and Luo Chen had no intention of asking again.
The waiter served the dishes, and Luo Chen and Xu Yan started to eat one after another.
After dinner, it was already seven o'clock.
Luo Chen and Xu Wen went back to the room.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Zhou Mei also came back with good news.
After Zhou Mei walked into the room, she took off the black raincoat she was wearing and put it aside, and immediately reported the situation to Luo Chen.
"Boss, I found my sister-in-law, she is fine."
Although it has been confirmed that the severed finger that Bai Mian sent before is not Mu Binglan's, Luo Chen is still worried that Zhou Mei may not be looking carefully.
"Did you see clearly?"
Zhou Mei nodded solemnly.
"Although I borrowed a telescope to look at it, I could see it very clearly. Apart from her complexion, my sister-in-law is completely intact."
Luo Chen let out a long sigh of relief, and repeated several sentences in succession, that's good, that's good.
Zhou Mei continued.
"Afterwards, I also saw a Chinese man, about 27 or [-] years old, who went in to find his sister-in-law. From the mouth shape of his sister-in-law, I determined that the man was the Mu Shaopeng that the boss you told me about before."
Mu Shaopeng!
As soon as Luo Chen heard this name, his teeth itch with hatred, being stabbed in the back by such a useless villain made Luo Chen extremely resentful.
"What is he looking for Lan Lan for?"
Zhou Mei shook her head.
"I don't know exactly what he wanted to do, but he said a lot of bad things about you, boss, to my sister-in-law, as if I was showing off my power. Later, in order to prevent the surprise, I withdrew."
Luo Chen sneered in his heart.
Mu Shaopeng must know that he is no fart in front of him, so he can only vent his resentment and dissatisfaction with him in this way.
But for Mu Shaopeng, Luo Chen had no intention of just hating him in his heart and settling the matter.
For this kind of person, Luo Chen feels that not dying is enough to vent his hatred. Anyway, Mu Shaopeng is also Fang Shiyao's illegitimate son. Even if he dies, it has nothing to do with the Mu family, and at the same time, it can also dampen Fang Shiyao's spirit.
"Good job, thank you Zhou Mei."
Zhou Mei laughed.
"Boss, you are welcome. This is not a trivial matter. Do you have any other instructions?"
Luo Chen shook his head, there is nothing to do right now.
At the same time, considering that Zhou Mei rushed over overnight, and was immediately sent to Keil Manor to inquire about news, Luo Chen didn't have time to rest, so Luo Chen asked Zhou Mei to rest in Xu Wen's room.
