The Domineering Chief Dotes on His Wife

When she got off work, Lu Jingshen called and said that he had just got off the plane. They chatted for a while and then hung up.

"Master Li, please pull over for a moment. I'm going to call my friend."

The driver pulled over.

Called Xu Hui.

"Are you busy? Do you want to come out for dinner?"

"Come, come right now!"

Lin Jiaran reported the location, and Xu Hui happened to be nearby. When she saw Lin Jiaran's car, she ran over and got in quickly.

"Hurry up, hurry up!" Xu Hui said hurriedly, looking out the window.

"Who are you hiding from?"

It was not until the car started and left the vicinity that Xu Hui patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

"I really didn't expect that the online friend I've been chatting with for so many years is really him. The first time might be an accident, the second time might be a coincidence, but the third time can't be called a coincidence, right?"

"Who did you see just now?"

"An Junfeng!"

Lin Jiaran's eyes suddenly widened and she looked at Xu Hui in disbelief.

"So you've been dating online for years?"

"Who said we were dating online? Stop making up rumors! I'll sue you for defamation. We just have a common topic to talk about!"

"He studies computer science, and you study design. Can you tell me what topics you two have in common?"

"I like watching car races, and he's a racing driver as an amateur!"

"Then why did you run just now? Haven't you seen it before?"

"If you were to chat with someone online for several years and suddenly found out that you had actually met before, I don't believe you would not run away."

After the two finished their meal, they walked around for a while, talking and laughing in the mall until they saw An Junfeng walking towards them.

"You go first, I'm going to the bathroom!"

After Xu Hui finished speaking, she walked in the opposite direction without looking back.

An Junfeng glanced at the person who was hiding and walking away behind Lin Jiaran, and walked in front of Lin Jiaran.

"Sister-in-law, where is the person you just walked with?"

"Are you asking about Xu Hui?"

"Wasn't she the one who was with you just now?" An Junfeng scratched his head and frowned, then looked into the distance again.

She thought that Xu Hui's sudden need to go to the toilet was because she was really in a hurry, and she was probably trying to avoid An Junfeng, so she pointed in the direction Xu Hui was going.

"It's her. She's going that way."

"Thank you, sister-in-law. I'll treat you to dinner some other day!" An Junfeng walked in the direction she pointed.

The person accompanying Lu Jingshen on this business trip is Zuo Nai. Zuo Nai is driving the car now, and they are on their way to a county town.

After nearly two hours, they arrived at their destination and it was dark.

There were two or three people standing at the entrance of a hotel, waiting for Lu Jingshen to arrive.

"This is President Xu, right?" After getting off the car, Lu Jingshen first looked at the man standing in the middle and greeted him politely.

"I guess this is Mr. Lu?" The man called President Xu was a middle-aged man, dressed in a suit and tie. He was slightly plump and had an imposing temperament.

"Hello, I'm Lu Jingshen!" Lu Jingshen took the lead in extending his hand to show his sincerity.

"Mr. Lu, you are too polite. I have already arranged food, clothing, housing and transportation!"

"Thank you, President Xu. It's just that Mr. Lu is a bit pressed for time this time, so let's talk business first!"

"Since Mr. Lu is busy, please come this way. Let's talk somewhere else!" President Xu pointed to the other side of the hotel and took Lu Jingshen to a secluded room.

This time, Lu Jingshen came to see President Xu because he wanted to know more about Sun Wenxiu, Shen Boren's current wife. Who had been the recipients of her remittances over the years? Multiple investigations did not yield any clues. Lu Jingshen decided to follow the clues and find out whether Sun Wenxiu had any connection with the people who had been receiving her remittances and what happened to her back then.

Originally, it was impossible to obtain detailed bank statements from the relevant banks. This time, Lu Jingshen went to find the old man first. Although the old man was in Ancheng, which was far away from Jincheng and had no advantages, the old man had great interpersonal relationships in Jincheng, and investigating some things was just a matter of a phone call.

The information provided by President Xu was from a man named Xiang Kun. According to the detailed records in the ledger, every month after Sun Wenxiu transferred the money in, he would withdraw it the next day, and only in cash.

"I wonder if President Xu knows this person?" Lu Jingshen asked.

"I'm sorry, I'm not very clear, but the journal shows that this account has received an amount of money today. According to the staff at our bank, this person always comes to withdraw the money the next day after the payment is made, and he always withdraws all the money."

"Withdrawing one hundred thousand at a time is not a small amount!"

"Mr. Lu, you may not know that because the depositor specifically instructed us to do so, our bank will prepare in advance. If Mr. Lu wants to find someone, he should be able to see him tomorrow."

"Then President Xu, please inform Lu when the time comes!"

"Mr. Lu, you're welcome!"

After walking around outside for a while, Lin Jiaran returned to Huatian Xinyuan.

When I opened the door and entered the house, all the lights were on, as if someone was in the house.

But Lu Jingshen is gone, so it can’t be him, right?

When she was at the entrance, she heard the sound of dripping water and hurried footsteps running in the house.

Did she go wrong?

"Mom..." a soft and tender little boy's voice.

In the room were Lin Qing and Lin Zicheng.

"Auntie..." Seeing Lin Jiaran, Lin Zicheng trotted over, put his arms around Lin Jiaran's legs, looked up at her and shouted.

"Do you still remember that I'm your aunt?" Lin Jiaran squatted down, rubbed Lin Zicheng's little face, and smiled softly.

"Remember!"

"Sister, you guys will be here?"

"Lu Jingshen called this morning and said that he had to go to Jincheng for a business trip for a few days. He was worried about you being alone at home, so he asked me to stay with you for a few days. I will also bring Lin Zicheng to meet my parents."

"Oh, I have to go to work tomorrow, so I'll go back to my room and go to sleep."

"Go!"

Lin Jiaran returned to the bedroom.

After calling her after getting off the plane in the afternoon, Lu Jingshen never called her again, nor did he send her a message.

Could it be that he was very busy? But even when he was busy, he would still send her messages.

It was so late, I didn’t know what he was busy with. He was tossing and turning in bed, so he took the initiative to send a WeChat message.

【Are you busy? 】

There was no reply from Lu Jingshen.

Lin Jiaran muttered to herself, are you still busy so late?

It was almost twelve o'clock in the morning when Lin Jiaran walked out of the bedroom.

Lin Qing was sitting alone on the sofa playing with his cell phone.

"Are you still awake?" Hearing the sound, Lin Qing turned around and looked at Lin Jiaran behind him and asked.

"I just got up to drink some water, you didn't sleep either!"

"I usually go to bed late, it's still early now!"

Lin Jiaran walked to the tea room, poured a glass of water, and then returned to the bedroom.

About half an hour later, he got up and walked out of the bedroom.

"Are you getting up to drink water?" Lin Qing was still sitting on the sofa in the living room, but with a blanket covering his legs.

"Why are you still here?"

"I'll sleep here tonight."

Lin Jiaran took a cup full of water from the tea room and returned to the bedroom.

A few minutes after two in the morning, her cell phone rang.

[I just got back to the hotel after work, and my phone has not been charged and turned off. ]

Lin Jiaran saw the message and immediately clicked on it, then quickly exited the chat box.

She was hesitating whether to reply. It was so late, and Lu Jingshen would definitely ask her why she was still awake. What should she say? Was she unable to sleep because he hadn't replied to her message for such a long time? Would this make her seem petty?

[It's so late and you're still awake? 】

Sure enough, Lu Jingshen sent another message. He saw that the other party was typing in the message he just sent but had not replied yet.

There was no reply, and Lu Jingshen made another video call.

After hesitating for a long time, she pressed the answer button, and then covered the camera after answering the video. She didn't want Lu Jingshen to see that she was awake and hadn't slept yet.

"Why can't you see anyone?"

"Who's calling this late?"

"I saw that you read the message but didn't reply to me, so I knew you weren't asleep."

"I just woke up."

"Are you having a nightmare again?" Lu Jingshen spoke softly on the phone. Lin Jiaran turned the phone over on the quilt and talked to him.

"No."

"Don't hang up, I'm going to take a shower first."

A few minutes later.

"Ranran, are you asleep?" After quickly washing up, Lu Jingshen lay on the bed. Although he couldn't see anyone, he still held the phone in his hand.

"No."

"Go to sleep. I won't hang up."

The atmosphere became quiet and Lu Jingshen did not speak any more.

"Are you so busy?" Lin Jiaran suddenly asked.

"A little bit. I wanted to finish things here and come back earlier. I still need help with some things. I also had to attend a drinking party. I wanted to call you, but there was no signal in the countryside and I couldn't get through."

"It's getting late, so you should go to bed early. I'm going to sleep." Lin Jiaran picked up the phone and said to the screen and the person on the phone. She also clearly saw that his face was very red, he must have drunk a lot of wine.

"Don't hang up." Suddenly, he saw the person he wanted to see appear on the screen. A strange light flashed in his eyes. He was afraid that she would hang up the phone the next second, so he spoke quickly.

"What else?"

Lu Jingshen turned over from his half-sitting position on the bed and lay on his side.

"I drank a little too much and now I have a headache."

"Can't you drink less?"

In his eyes, her face was like an unfolding white orchid. Whether she was frowning or smiling, it was usually written on her face. Every time he saw her appearance, his heart was filled with satisfaction and joy.

"Just don't move. Let me look at my wife more, then I won't have a headache." The man stared at the screen with gentle eyes and smiled foolishly from time to time.

Holding the mobile phone in his left hand, he stroked his face with his right hand, staring at the screen with a sharp gaze, his mouth corners raised and his eyebrows curved.

"Lu Jingshen, are you kidding me?" He frowned.

"Even when she's angry she's so cute. I can't help but want to kiss her!"

"Lu Jingshen, if you keep going crazy like this, I'm going to die!"

"I am very clear-headed and I am telling the truth. In my eyes, my wife is perfect in every way and I like and love her!"

After hearing this, Lin Jiaran blushed and put the phone screen face down to prevent him from looking at it.

"Why can't I see it again?"

"Where is my wife?"

Lin Jiaran pulled the quilt up and covered her entire head in it, deciding to ignore it.

"Ran Ran?"

"My wife is hiding out of shyness again?"

Lu Jingshen kept chattering on the phone. Lin Jiaran listened without saying anything. Lu Jingshen kept chattering on the other end, but she began to feel sleepy and soon fell asleep in the quilt.

Lu Jingshen didn't hear any movement from the other end, so he didn't hang up the phone. He put the phone next to his pillow and stopped talking. After glancing at the phone, he closed his eyes and went to sleep.
