The Domineering Chief Dotes on His Wife

"According to various compensations, the maximum standard of consolation for your husband is three million. Our company deeply apologizes for your family's unfortunate accident. Our president has also personally subsidized two million, a total of five million. This consolation is the highest level anywhere. In addition, our company will pay 50,000 for funeral expenses, which is also a lot." Zuo Meng stood up and spoke to the woman on her behalf, politely and decently.

"In addition, your three children are still studying. Our president has promised to cover their tuition and living expenses of 5,000 per month until they graduate from college. We will also pay it all in one lump sum. These are not included in the 5 million."

"This is compensation from our company. If you are still not satisfied, we will follow the normal procedures and take responsibility for what we should do. You may not be able to get this much of the five million by then."

"Well, where's the money? Give me every penny you can get!"

"We are dealing with the money issue. You should be aware that several million is a large amount. Even cash requires some procedures and will take some time." Zuo Meng said.

"We'll talk about it after the money comes!" The woman pulled the old woman and wanted to leave the meeting room.

"Please sit here for a few minutes. We have some questions for you!" A policeman stood up and walked over to the two men and said politely.

"We have nothing to say!"

"Cooperating with the police in handling the case is what every citizen should do. We are only responsible for investigating the whole process of this incident and handling the case according to the law. We hope that you will cooperate."

"Okay, we'll cooperate." The old woman answered in a soft voice, without a trace of non-cooperative attitude. On the contrary, the old woman's daughter-in-law looked reluctant and helpless.

Everyone was still in the conference room.

"Is your husband in good health?" the police officer asked.

"Aren't you talking nonsense? How can you come here to work if you are not in good health?" The woman said disdainfully with an unhappy look on her face.

"In order to ascertain the exact reason why your husband fell from the building, we hope that you can answer truthfully."

"I've already told you he's not sick, if you don't believe me what can I do?"

"It's like this. We inspected many places on the scene and didn't find any potential safety hazards. Maybe your son didn't fall from the building accidentally, but it was deliberate. We can't rule out this reason for the time being." The policeman looked at the old woman and said.

The police officer's words made the woman feel guilty. Her eyes were filled with panic and she didn't speak for a while.

After a moment of panic, the woman stood up again and spoke while banging the table.

"You mean to say my husband would jump by himself? Are you kidding me? No one in their right mind would jump from that height!"

The old woman suddenly burst into tears again.

"Old man!" the policeman said worriedly.

The old woman suddenly stood up from her chair, walked a few steps towards Lu Jingshen, and suddenly knelt down.

Zuo Meng reacted quickly and supported the person.

"What do you mean, old man?"

Lu Jingshen, who was sitting in his seat, was not moved at all because he had already understood the relevant issues and there was no problem with the on-site construction. Strong evidence showed that the workers took advantage of their break time to break into the dangerous area and jump down.

"My son is ill. He has advanced stomach cancer, but I am already in my seventies and cannot help him. We have no choice but to resort to this desperate measure."

"I will take every penny of the compensation, but the prerequisite is that you must clarify whether there are any safety hazards. In your case, the most I can get is some funeral expenses. For me, there are many ways to solve the safety hazard problem you rumored, but you missed out on millions. I am a businessman, not someone who will do business at a loss. You should weigh the pros and cons yourself."

Lu Jingshen's words made the old woman nod repeatedly.

At the hospital, when Lin Jiaran woke up, Lin Qing had already arrived and was guarding the ward.

"Sister, why are you here?" After waking up and looking around, she found her sister sitting alone on the sofa looking at her.

"There were some problems with New Town International's project. Lu Jingshen went to deal with it. I'm here to take care of you."

"what is the problem?"

"They said someone fell from a high building and some people were gathering to cause trouble."

"Let's not talk about anything else for now. Tell me honestly, did Lu Jingshen ask you to take medicine?" Lin Qing walked over and sat beside the bed facing him.

"He didn't ask me to take medicine? Besides, I'm not sick, why did he ask me to take medicine?"

"Do you know why you fainted and why you feel unwell?"

"Didn't you get enough rest?"

"You took the birth control pill." Lin Qing said directly without any hesitation.

The person lying down suddenly sat up, frowning.

"I didn't take it. I took it once before and I know what happened. I also told Lu Jingshen about it, but he didn't let me take the medicine."

"Really? Or are you hiding it? Did Lu Jingshen use some evidence against you and are you protecting him?" Lin Qing frowned and continued to ask.

"Do I need to? But how do I take this medicine?"

"Lu Jingshen put it for you secretly." Lin Qing said lightly.

"Is he sick? Would he do such a thing?" It's not that she doubted Lu Jingshen, but she didn't think Lu Jingshen would do this. Although they had not had much contact over the years, she still knew Lu Jingshen's character more or less. He was open and aboveboard, and would admit to whatever he had done and would not hide anything.

"Then how did you take the birth control pill?"

"If you ask me, who should I ask? If you hadn't said it here, I would have thought I was having another stomach attack."

Lu Jingshen worked on the issue from the afternoon until the evening, and went to the police station again. Finally, the problem was found out. It was not a safety hazard problem in the on-site construction, but a problem of the worker lying in the medical examination report knowing that he had a terminal illness, creating a false impression in order to get compensation.

"Boss, there's something else that's a little suspicious." After coming out of the police station, Zuo Meng whispered to Lu Jingshen at the door.

"Let's talk about it when we get back."

In the car, Zuo Meng was driving, while Lu Jingshen first called Lin Qing to ask about Lin Jiaran's situation. After hanging up the phone, he sent a message to report the situation. It was already very late.

【Is Mrs. Lu asleep? 】

[Didn’t sleep. 】

[You're still not asleep so late, could it be that Mrs. Lu is not used to not having me around and can't sleep? ]

[I just can't sleep, don't be narcissistic! ]

Lu Jingshen didn't reply to the message.

"It's very late, you should go to bed early. I have to go to the company tomorrow and I can't stay here with you." Lin Qing took her bag, stood up, looked at the time, and said to Lin Jiaran before leaving.

"You're leaving me here alone?"

"It's obvious. You still want to go with me in this situation? It's not realistic."

"Aren't you taking care of me? Now you leave me alone in the hospital, aren't you worried that I'll be scared?"

"What are you afraid of if you turn on the lights? There are people outside to protect you and take care of your safety."

Lin Qing walked away with his bag in his hand without even looking back.

"Sister..." She called out in a weak and pitiful manner, hoping that Lin Qing would stay with her because she was still so weak. But Lin Qing pretended not to hear her, opened the door, waved goodbye and left.

"Lin Qing!" Lin Jiaran shouted angrily on the hospital bed, no longer pretending to be pitiful and weak.

It was already twelve o'clock in the morning, and Lu Jingshen didn't say whether he wanted to come to the hospital, nor did he reply to her message.

【? ? ? 】

After waiting for a few minutes, Lu Jingshen still didn't reply.

[Is the internet disconnected or the hand broken? 】

After waiting for more than ten minutes, the person tossing and turning in bed was too angry to sleep, but Lu Jingshen still didn't reply to her message.

Could it be that he is still busy?

The phone is turned off!

He opened the door of the ward with an angry face, and Zuo Nai was standing outside in high spirits, in charge of security.

"What's the matter, ma'am?"

"Where is Lu Jingshen going?"

"I don't know this."

He slammed the door, locked it, and closed the window.

"Lu Jingshen, I want to divorce you!" The angry man couldn't get through on the phone, so he had to send a voice message and yell.
