The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 154 My background seems to be complicated?
"Sell the shares?"

Lin Chen turned his head in surprise: "You've been working so hard to protect the business your father left behind, sacrificing everything for it. How come you're suddenly saying you want to sell it? Are you really willing to do that?"

Chu Jiaxue sighed: "I just realized something. My insistence is not wrong, but if I continue to insist, I will be targeted even more. I will not only harm myself, but also the people around me."

A flicker of lingering fear crossed Chu Jiaxue's eyes: "If you hadn't been so capable today, I would not only have sold my shares cheaply, but I would have also suffered misfortune, and even dragged you down with me. This is the second time something like this has happened. If I continue like this, there will be a third, a fourth time..."

Lin Chen was silent for two seconds, then suddenly smiled and said, "If you really think it through, it's good to sell your shares and leave this industry. As your parents, I think what they want most is not for you to risk your life to seek justice for them, but for you to live a peaceful and happy life."

Chu Jiaxue hummed in agreement, staring blankly out the window for a while. As the car left the darkness and returned to the city lights, the headlights shone on her face, flickering on and off.

"The Chu family wants my shares, right? Then I'll sell them to the Chu family!"

Lin Chen was somewhat surprised: "Don't you hate them? Why did you sell to them?"

Chu Jiaxue said, "Selling Chu He and leaving Pingjiang does not mean that I have given up my hatred for my parents. I am just starting over in a place where they cannot reach me. In the future, as long as there is an opportunity, I will come back to take back the justice that originally belonged to me and take back Chu He."

Lin Chen immediately understood Chu Jiaxue's thoughts. She sold Chu He to the Chu family she resented, which was also to motivate herself to move forward. If she had the ability to defeat the Chu family in the future, wouldn't what originally belonged to her return?
Lin Chen didn't stop her. Actually, this was a good roundabout strategy for Chu Jiaxue. After all, Pingjiang was completely under the influence of the Chu family of Linhai, making it too difficult for her to achieve anything.

"Sure, just let me know if you need any help."

Chu Jiaxue nodded: "I will talk to Chu Tianyu directly about the acquisition. If he wants shares, he'll have to pay real money to buy them!"

"it is good!"

Since Chu Jiaxue had this plan, Lin Chen was too lazy to cause trouble for the Lei family and Chu Tianyu, and took the frightened Chu Jiaxue home.

Back home, Chu Jiaxue took a bath to calm herself down after the day's events. When Lin Chen finished his bath and came out, Chu Jiaxue handed him a box.

"for you."

Lin Chen's gaze fell on the somewhat old-looking sandalwood box in Chu Jiaxue's hand: "What is this?"

"Jade pendant".

Chu Jiaxue stuffed the box into Lin Chen's hand: "I'll give it to you sooner or later, so there's no need to waste time. You can take it and start the investigation sooner." Since Chu Jiaxue had already taken it out, Lin Chen didn't hesitate and nodded to accept it: "Then I'll take it first. I will continue to fulfill our agreement."

Chu Jiaxue pursed her lips and said, "You saved my life twice. Even if there was a huge favor to repay, it has already been paid off. You don't owe us anything now. If you want to leave, you can leave anytime."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Before I find any clues or results in my investigation of my background, I don't really have a destination to go to."

Chu Jiaxue's eyes lit up slightly, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Then you can stay here for now. Putting aside the fact that we're already married, this place is your home too, considering the friendship between Grandpa and your master."

Lin Chen smiled nonchalantly: "Okay!"

Chu Jiaxue's gaze fell on the box: "Aren't you going to open it and take a look?"

Lin Chen's expression was slightly complicated. He was quite certain that opening this box might bring about some changes in his life.

Lin Chen didn't really want to investigate his background, fearing it would lead to a sad story. After all, what normal parent would abandon their child? But since he had the jade pendant, he decided to investigate.

Anyway, we're all adults now, there's nothing we can't handle.

The box was opened, and inside, a uniquely shaped jade pendant lay quietly in a blue velvet lining.

Lin Chen took out the jade pendant, his eyes showing a slight surprise.

Even though he wasn't particularly knowledgeable about jade, he could tell at a glance that this piece of jade was no ordinary jade. It was crystal clear, warm and smooth, and had a slight coolness when held in his hand.

The jade was a round, flat piece of jade, carved with an ancient character. However, this character was not a normal character; it resembled ancient seal script. In short, Lin Chen did not recognize it.

Lin Chen looked at it over and over: "Is this a single character?"

Chu Jiaxue nodded: "It should be, but I don't recognize it. I searched online but couldn't find it. I guess we'd need to find a language expert to figure it out..."

Lin Chen nodded: "I'll find out where there are experts in writing later. Perhaps this complex and unique character is the key to unlocking my background. This piece of jade is of such high quality and has such a unique shape. Why do I suddenly feel that my background is not simple either?"
