Chapter 1869: Chapter 1867: Vacation

These past few days, Qin Yize has been exceptionally busy. He has already found out who leaked the information.

After reporting to the old master, he took Second Uncle and Second Aunt, who leaked his company’s information, to an abandoned factory in the suburbs.

Turns out, it wasn’t Qin Yishan who revealed it to them. They had sneakily seen the document in Yishan’s briefcase and found out.

And as luck would have it, just as they learned about this document, two people came knocking on their door.

They sold one piece of information and got three million.

For Second Uncle Qin, this money was too easy to come by.

Moreover, he didn’t think it was that serious. Although he knew there were many spies in the business world, he hadn’t leaked any lab secrets, just described the impact of the product after its release. Besides, he felt the product would eventually come out, and everyone would know by then. He simply disclosed it a bit early.

Qin Yize was actually quite disappointed, but he also felt that people like Second Uncle and Second Aunt were bound to cause some trouble given their nature.

This abandoned factory is also another secret base of his, surrounded by walls, guarded security at the entrance, very strict surveillance.

After obtaining the information he wanted, he temporarily locked these two people here.

Right now, it can’t be publicized, but they need to taste some bitterness and learn a lesson, or else these two could cause major trouble in the future.

Qin Yize still felt uneasy.

Past and present matters hovered in his mind once again.

He couldn’t help but feel unwilling, but right now they were quite docile, apart from leaking the information, they hadn’t made any other moves. Given the old master’s influence, he really couldn’t just eliminate them, especially since this also involved Qin Yishan.

Qin Yishan used to be reckless, but ever since he followed Qin Yize, he has indeed been loyal. Cultivating such an assistant isn’t easy, and unless absolutely necessary, Qin Yize wouldn’t cut off his own arm.

Thus, he could only let the two of them stay locked up here for a while, teaching them a lesson.

After giving some instructions, Qin Yize drove away from the abandoned factory, heading towards the city.

Xiao Bao and Xiao Bei went to the ranch with their little uncle.

Xiao Yu was on break, Grandma Qin went back to take care of him, and Shen Manru went to meet some classmates, leaving the bustling Qin Family’s Courtyard to just the old master and Xiao Yuan.

So, the old master took Xiao Yuan out for a gathering, to meet old friends.

At noon, Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize returned on time, looked at each other and smiled simultaneously, couldn’t believe such a big courtyard now had only the two of them.

After greeting Uncle Wang and the others in the back courtyard, Qin Yize took Gu Qiaoqiao to the suburb.

Anyway, Xiao Bao and Xiao Bei will stay at the ranch for a few days.

Though these two children are only one year old, since their mother is Gu Qiaoqiao, compared to their peers, they are not only half-a-head taller but also smarter, making taking care of them quite easy.

Moreover, Xiao Nan’s skills are excellent, the kids will surely have the most fun at this time of July, not to mention a great opportunity waiting for one of them.

Despite thinking about them, they weren’t worried.

So, they decided to take a break for themselves, free of burden.

Qin Yize drove with Gu Qiaoqiao by his side, it was precisely July, the Imperial Capital was in the heat of summer, but driving through the suburbs, a breeze came gently, the fields were a sea of rolling grain waves, the air seemed fragrant.

Very soon, Qin Yize stopped the car in front of an elegant residential gate.

Gu Qiaoqiao hadn’t been to this place, but as they got out of the car, someone was already there to greet them, clearly, Qin Yize had called ahead, apparently, it needs to be booked otherwise there’s no accommodation and food available.

Standing by the car, not far away, in bold, flying script, were the words Fengya Villa.

A round wooden arch bridge led to the entrance, walking on it and looking down, unexpectedly the river water was clear, and one could see fish of various sizes swimming joyfully.

Water plants swayed with the wind on the banks, unknown wildflowers blooming quietly. Even before going inside, Gu Qiaoqiao already loved the scenery at the entrance.

After entering the villa, the manager led them to a set of three separate green brick and tile houses.

Much like ordinary green brick houses in the North, but with ancient, refined charm, strings of red peppers and corn hung on the walls, large vats in the corners of the courtyard were covered with leaves from an abundant lotus.

The middle was also a paved path with bluestone slabs on both sides.

Flowers were planted around, with vegetables in the middle.

Very enticing, with green cucumbers, red tomatoes, and purple eggplants, common sights on the Northern soil.

Amidst elegance, exudes countryside pastoral interest everywhere.

This path was two meters wide, surrounded by grapevines woven into an arched shape. At this moment, speckled sunlight filtered through the grape leaves and scattered on the ground, giving off a dreamy, distant vibe.

Clearly well tended, clusters of small grapes dangled from the trellis.

Seems like the time for them to mature hasn’t come yet.

After leading them in, the villa manager tactfully left. Gu Qiaoqiao was embraced by Qin Yize, the man with exquisite features gently asked, "Qiaoqiao, do you like it here?"

Gu Qiaoqiao nodded vigorously, "I like it, of course, I do. I never imagined such a place in the suburbs."

Qin Yize’s eyes flashed with a hint of melancholy and guilt, "Qiaoqiao, there are many places you’ve never been. When we’re not busy, I promise to take you anywhere you wish to go."

Recalling what she told her mom last night about retiring, Gu Qiaoqiao chuckled, "I even told my mom that after retirement we’d travel all around Da Jiang’s North and South."

"No need, whenever we’re not busy, I will take you out."

Qin Yize solemnly promised.

Afterward, he pulled Gu Qiaoqiao into the room, and inside it was much like Northern decoration but immaculate.

The kitchen had ready cookware, the fridge was stocked with fish and meat, vegetables could be freshly picked and cooked from the courtyard, none of this was surprising since with Lian Yuhong and Lady Yu, both Gu Garden and Qin Family’s Courtyard had sizeable vegetable gardens.

Not that they couldn’t buy veggies, but there’s something uniquely delicious about eating stuff grown by oneself.

In two days, Qin Yize took Gu Qiaoqiao around the entire place.

It had somewhat of a newlywed sweetness.

Unexpectedly, Gu Qiaoqiao discovered Qin Yize could even catch field frogs.

But the field frogs here were named Little Flower Shoes, their bellies particularly filled with roe at this time of year, yet Gu Qiaoqiao found them really unappetizing.

Furthermore, they were full of parasites.

So, Gu Qiaoqiao let Qin Yize release the plump Little Flower Shoes.
