The Domineering Chief Dotes on His Wife

Chapter 31 Is this bribery?

It was almost afternoon when they left Jialin's house and went to the company together.

"Let me make it clear first, this won't be made public in the company!" Lin Jiaran said in the elevator, with Lu Jingshen standing slightly forward to her left.

"Sooner or later, someone will know about our relationship." What he meant was that her keeping it secret might be a bit unnecessary.

"Then at least don't make it public before I graduate! I don't want to have any fighting spirit with you." If it wasn't public, she could still slack off and wouldn't be labeled as the young lady of the Lu family. She didn't want to marry him and then have to stand by him and his wife's side. She didn't have that extra ambition.

"I can agree with you before the wedding, but before that, I can't guarantee that no one will be unaware of our relationship."

"No one would know if you don't tell me!" He tilted his head and looked at me with a warning look.

Half a day was wasted, and Lu Jingshen stayed to work overtime. Naturally, Lin Jiaran was unable to get off work early. She was asked to sit on the sofa and wait for him. She kept playing games there, while Lu Jingshen handled his work here and looked at her from time to time.

The person sitting on the sofa stood up, and Lu Jingshen withdrew his gaze and returned to the thing in his hand.

"Do you have a charger?" Lin Jiaran came to Lu Jingshen with a cell phone that was low on battery, showing only 15 percent. She asked for a charger.

"No." Lu Jingshen pretended to be busy with work.

"How long will it take before we can leave?"

"It won't be long."

Lin Jiaran sat back on the sofa, and after hearing the 5% low battery warning tone, Lu Jingshen stood up shortly afterwards.

As soon as they left the office, the lights on the entire floor went out.

"Why is there suddenly no light?"

"It should be time out, it will shut down automatically."

"Where's your cell phone? Turn on the flashlight!" Lin Jiaran groped in the dark and took out her cell phone. It still had 1% of battery left, and she turned on the flashlight.

"My phone is out of battery." She walked in front with a flashlight, and Lu Jingshen followed closely behind her.

"Can't you turn on the lights in the office?" They were still some distance away from the private elevator and the ordinary employee elevator.

"I can't find the switch. If you don't leave now, you will have to walk there in the dark." His eyes flickered several times in the darkness.

After her phone ran out of battery, she groped in the dark.

She didn't know who was in front of her, so she just kept walking forward. Lu Jingshen turned to the right, and she bumped into his arms. His left hand held her steadily. In the darkness, she briefly threw herself into his arms and then pushed him away to keep a distance.

Lu Jingshen prepared to leave.

"Wait!" she shouted in the dark. She couldn't see Lu Jingshen's location, nor could she find the exact exit. She could only feel a table in front of her.

"Something?" He asked deliberately, knowing the answer.

"You're talking nonsense! How can I find it in such a dark place?"

"I don't mind you holding my hand." He stood there, not far away from her.

"Are you kidding me? How can I see where you are in this dark?"

In the darkness, he walked up to her.

"Is holding your hand an improper relationship?" he asked, standing in front of her.

"Not counting."

After getting her answer, Lu Jingshen went over and took her hand. This was the first time he held her hand openly. Even in the dark, he couldn't help but smile.

"Do you have night vision goggles with you?" It was so dark that she couldn't see clearly and couldn't find the location, but he was like turning on the lights, leading her with the light in his eyes.

"Just getting used to it."

When she reached the light, she let go of his hand.

His Rolls-Royce Phantom stopped at the entrance of the company. He opened the passenger door for her, waited for her to get in, and then closed the door for her personally. Then he walked around from behind the car to the driver's seat and drove her home.

"I'll pick you up at your house tomorrow morning."

She tilted her head to ask him why he came to pick her up.

"The engagement ceremony will be the day after tomorrow. You have to go and try on the dress the day after tomorrow. Also, come with me to the Lu family for dinner in the evening. After dinner, I will take you home." He held the steering wheel in his hand, glanced at her, then looked ahead and explained the reason to her.

Lin Jiaran slept in late in the morning, which was a rare occasion. A group of people came to the Lin family downstairs, each holding various exquisite and valuable things in boxes. Lu Jingchuan, Mo Shaobai and his party were also accompanied by Xu Fang, who followed Lu Jingshen to the Lin family to formally present the betrothal gifts.

"What is this?" Lin Yehua saw people coming and going and moving a lot of things into their homes at the door.

"The betrothal gift for her." Lu Jingshen stood in front, and his good friend stood not far behind him. The trunks of each of Mo Shaobai and his group were filled with Lu Jingshen's betrothal gifts. They were all counting the things to be moved for him in the drizzle.

There are twelve red Chinese-style engagement gift boxes and betrothal gift boxes in total. Each box contains one million in cash, which are being moved in one by one by a special person.

“Didn’t you take it before?” Lin Yehua stepped aside again to make way for others.

"Last time it was my grandfather who gave it to the Lin family, and today I gave it to her in my own name."

Lin Yehua had seen many big scenes, but this was the first time he had seen two betrothal gifts.

Lin Jiaran had just woken up, still in her pajamas, when she heard the noisy sound of moving things downstairs. She opened the door of her bedroom on the second floor and looked down at the corridor on the second floor. Was her family going to auction antiques? The red boxes were particularly conspicuous, placed side by side, and her spacious hall suddenly seemed a lot more crowded.

"Please have a seat at home, my dear nephews." Lin Yehua greeted them.

Today, everyone who followed Lu Jingshen got back to the topic and greeted Lin Yehua one by one in a polite and courteous manner.

She saw a group of people led by Lu Jingshen walking into her house on the second floor. She hurried into her bedroom and kicked the door, which slammed shut. The sound was heard downstairs, and everyone's attention was focused on her bedroom door.

Lin Yehua gave Zhang Yuqin a look and asked her to go upstairs to call for help.

In fact, it was not her intention to use force. She was just wearing pajamas and was afraid of being seen and having a bad impact. After all, all she saw were men, so she was in a hurry and did not use the right force.

"Your dad asked you to go downstairs quickly." Zhang Yuqin opened the door and walked into her room.

"What are they moving downstairs?" Lin Jiaran had just changed her clothes, and her natural shoulder-length hair was loose.

"The betrothal gift from Xiao Lu."

"Mom, don't tell me what's happening downstairs?" she asked with her eyes wide open.

"Yes, hurry up and come downstairs." Zhang Yuqin urged.

When she went downstairs, only Lu Jingshen and her parents were there. The rest of the people delivered the things, said hello and left.

"If you are busy, just go ahead and do your work. Just send it back in the evening." She had just gone downstairs and hadn't even reached where they were sitting when her father started to urge her.

"Is this how you've been bribed?" Her father, who was reluctant yesterday, completely changed his attitude today and was smiling.

"How can you talk like that?" Lin Yehua replied, while Lu Jingshen stood up and smiled without saying anything.

"Uncle Lin, I'll take her away." Lu Jingshen walked to her side and stood side by side with her.

"I haven't had breakfast yet!"

"Let's go out and eat!" Lin Yehua said like he was driving ducks.

"No way! They just brought some things and you changed your expression faster than turning the pages of a book!" She thought the relationship between father and daughter could be very deep, but it was just like this!

"Don't make me do it."

In the car, Xu Hui sent her a WeChat message.

"I heard you are getting married?"

"News spreads pretty fast. Where did you hear it?" she replied.

"My brother went to your house today to deliver the betrothal gift."

"You're just bragging. I haven't even seen your brother."

"The person you are going to marry is named Lu, right..."

"Anyway, my last name is not Ma." She deliberately tilted her phone to one side when she replied. What she was thinking was that she felt it was necessary to put an anti-peep film on her phone now!

"My brother knows the girl you are going to marry, and they are very familiar with each other..."

"It's none of my business..."

"If you cancel the engagement, you should ask my dad for those things, don't ask me!" She felt it necessary to communicate in advance.

"That's for you. If I don't look for you, who else can I look for?"

"I didn't ask you to bring it!" she said to distance herself from the matter.

"Since I've given it to you, there's no reason to ask for it back."
