The Domineering Chief Dotes on His Wife

The morning light was just breaking, and the sunlight poured into the room through the window, forming a bright spot of light.

He hugged her out of habit, but it seemed like he was hugging a wisp of air. Lu Jingshen then opened his eyes and found that he was the only one on the bed!

The time is already eight fifty in the morning!

Several buses were parked at the door downstairs of Shengshi Group, and everyone was queuing up in an orderly manner to get on the buses.

Lin Jiaran was wearing a light sportswear, with her hair tied in a ponytail and a beige sun-protective baseball cap. She also carried a backpack and wore a sun-protection mask. She squeezed behind Wen Xin and Ma Xiaoying.

Qiao Fei stared at Lin Jiaran and was very confused. There were only two girls in the president's office, so which department was this extra girl from?

When Lin Jiaran was about to get in the car, Qiao Fei asked, "Which department are you from?"

"Assistant Qiao, it's me!" Lin Jiaran took off her mask and said in a low voice.

"Miss Lin!"

"Shh! Keep a low profile!"

Lu Jingshen went downstairs. It was surprisingly quiet, without any noise at all.

"Good morning, sir!"

"Where's Madame?"

"Madam has taken people out early!"

Lin Jiaran had already gotten on the bus. She squeezed into the last row with Wen Xin and Ma Xiaoying. She sat by the window. The bus was heading to its destination. A few minutes after nine, Lu Jingshen called her on video.

"Where are you going?" When he found Lin Jiaran sitting on the bus, he frowned slightly, obviously unhappy. They didn't even inform him where they were going and left him alone at home!

"Of course we're going for team building!" When the camera turned to Lin Jiaran's side, Lu Jingshen realized that she was going out to play with the company's people.

"He actually ran away quietly!" As he said that, Lu Jingshen took his phone and walked towards the elevator, preparing to go upstairs to change clothes.

"How could I run away secretly? I am doing it openly!"

"..."

Without waiting for Lu Jingshen to say anything, Lin Jiaran hung up the phone.

Coincidentally, at this time, Shen Jiayi called him.

"Are you free today?" Shen Jiayi asked on the phone.

"No, what's up?"

"I want to have a cup of tea with you alone." Shen Jiayi's voice was slightly serious.

Lu Jingshen also frowned slightly, "What do you want to talk to me about?"

"It's just a private matter."

The plain and elegant tea room was small and simple, yet elegant. Shen Jiayi had been there for a while and was drinking tea alone when Lu Jingshen pushed the door open and walked in. Shen Jiayi put down the celadon carp cup in his hand and gestured to Lu Jingshen to sit opposite him.

After Lu Jingshen sat down, Shen Jiayi poured him a cup of tea. There was a plastic bag on the tea table, and Shen Jiayi handed the information inside to Lu Jingshen.

"Although she is in Ancheng, my family is not completely indifferent to her. Every year on her birthday and during the Chinese New Year, my parents, uncle and aunt give her red envelopes with cash. How could she steal for a bracelet worth tens of thousands of dollars?"

"Why did they withdraw the lawsuit after filing it? Is there no hidden reason behind it?"

Shen Jiayi frowned as he spoke. Although he had just started working in Ancheng not long ago, based on his years of experience, he could conclude that there was something hidden. He also learned about this matter by accident.

Lu Jingshen carefully looked through the information Shen Jiayi gave him. He had investigated the case of Lin Jiaran being framed at school, but due to his identity restrictions, the investigation was not detailed. Now the information Shen Jiayi had was very detailed.

All the interrogation records and detention information are very clear. Lin Jiaran was detained in the police station for a week because she refused to admit to theft and beat the plaintiff, which was a serious case, so she was detained. There is no detailed record of how she left the police station.

"There was a hidden story. I was on a business trip in Italy at the time and didn't know about it. It was only this year that I accidentally heard her reveal a little bit about it. I did some research, but I don't know the details of how she was framed."

"Do you know how the lawsuit was withdrawn later?" Shen Jiayi asked.

"It was my grandfather who stepped in to sort this matter out."

"The plaintiff's information has been erased. Who is the plaintiff?" Shen Jiayi asked again.

"Chu Xiong, the president of Ancheng Chamber of Commerce." Lu Jingshen said in a steady tone, but there was a hint of coldness between his brows. He had spoken directly to Chu Xiong that day, but Chu Xiong had actually erased the evidence. Did Chu Xiong think that if he couldn't find the evidence, he wouldn't be blamed? He had known about this a long time ago, but he was planning how to collect the debt from him.

"I have a plan for this. If your identity is inconvenient, please don't show up. I will take care of it." Lu Jingshen took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, and handed the information back to Shen Jiayi.

Shen Jiayi first picked up the teacup and glanced at Lu Jingshen, then took a sip and said slowly, "The political arena of Ancheng is currently beginning to purge dissidents, and there will be a major internal personnel reshuffle."

Lu Jingshen looked at Shen Jiayi without saying anything. He probably understood Shen Jiayi's words to mean that the Shen family would not tolerate this matter.

"My family is preparing to relocate, and we will probably settle here by the end of the year." Shen Jiayi changed the subject and said.

"move?"

"This has been decided for several years, just waiting for my dad to retire. You are planning to hold the wedding next year, and my dad wants to complete this before the wedding."

"I thought it was a sudden decision. I had already made all the arrangements for the wedding and planned to hold it in Jincheng."

"It's the same if we do it in Ancheng. Xiao Jiaran doesn't like Jincheng anyway, so it's fine to do it in Ancheng." After a pause, Shen Jiayi frowned slightly, sighed deeply and said, "In fact, I came to Ancheng to go to college just to be close to you."

Lu Jingshen frowned at this time and looked at Shen Jiayi.

"I don't know what kind of person you are, I want to get to know you."

"So you were pretending last time?" Lu Jingshen said with raised eyebrows and squinted eyes. The last time they went to Jincheng was their first reunion after graduation, but Shen Jiayi pretended to be very surprised.

Shen Jiayi raised his eyes slightly, looking slightly embarrassed, and picked up the teacup, as if he couldn't say anything. However, due to Lu Jingshen's sharp eyes, he had to speak, "Since Xiao Jiaran came to Ancheng and stayed for a few months, she has been thinking about you since she returned to Jincheng. She used to admire me the most..."

"Shen Jiayi, do you have any abnormal psychology?" Lu Jingshen narrowed his eyes and spoke slowly in a low voice, his eyes fixed on Shen Jiayi.

"Of course not. I think you are the one with mental problems. There is an eight-year age difference between you two!"

"So what? I have no blood relationship with her."

Shen Jiayi sighed deeply, his eyes lowered to his teacup, "You don't have a sister, you don't understand the feeling of a sister worshipping her brother."

Noticing Lu Jingshen's suspicious look, Shen Jiayi quickly explained, "She and I only have a brother-sister relationship, don't get the wrong idea. Besides, I don't believe that when you were a child, you could resist a soft and coquettish little girl."

Lu Jingshen didn't say anything and just drank his tea. Lin Jiaran was very cute when she was a child, and with her cheerful and lively personality, her chubby looks, and her soft and cute tone of voice, it was easy for people to feel a desire to protect her.
