Marrying a wealthy family for the second time, being spoiled by a paranoid childhood sweetheart

By this time, when Song Song discovered it, the matter had been resolved and Song Song also rushed to the room.

Seeing the scene in front of him, he was very worried. He walked quickly to Jiang Ru, held her hand tightly, and kept asking her if she was hurt. Jiang Ru shook her head and said in a trembling voice: "I'm fine, thanks to Gu Chen."

Afterwards, Gu Chen and Song Song handed the stranger over to the local police. Under police questioning, Jiang Ru tried to calm down and recounted what had happened. After handling everything, Gu Chen and Song Song escorted Jiang Ru back to her room.

"I'll be guarding the door tonight, so you can sleep well." Gu Chen said.

In order to protect Jiang Ru with peace of mind, he also rented a room next to Jiang Ru and lived there so that no one could hurt Jiang Ru.

Jiang Ru nodded gratefully. Although she was exhausted both physically and mentally after experiencing this thrilling event, she knew that Gu Chen was guarding her by her side. Her heart gradually calmed down and she slowly fell asleep.

This night was so long and terrifying for Jiang Ru, but it was because of the help of Gu Chen and Song Song that she felt warm and safe in a foreign country.

That night, Gu Chen guarded Jiang Ru all night long.

The next day.

"Did you have a good rest yesterday?" Song Song asked anxiously, worried about what happened yesterday.

"Thanks to you guys, I'm fine." Jiang Ru shook her head and said.

"I'm really sorry about what happened yesterday..." Song Song apologized guiltily.

Jiang Ru smiled and soothed him, "Okay, it's all in the past. We're supposed to cooperate today, right? Let's do it quickly!"

The most urgent thing now is to get the cooperation done quickly.

Today is the day of cooperation. Jiang Ru has dressed up carefully and is ready to follow Song Song to meet the mysterious partner.

She was wearing a simple yet elegant business suit, her hair was neatly tied back, and her eyes were filled with a hint of nervousness.

"Come on, I'll take you to meet our partner. He's a business tycoon and a very important person."

Song Song changed the subject and said that this character was very important.

Just as they were about to go out, Gu Chen hurried over.

"Wait, I want to go with you too!" Gu Chen's voice was firm and decisive.

"Why are you here?" Jiang Ru frowned and said with difficulty: "Gu Chen, this is not something you can just join in the fun, don't make things worse."

Gu Chen refused to give up and clung to Jiang Ru tightly: "Jiang Ru, how can I let you go alone for such an important matter? One more person means more protection."

"Don't joke!" Jiang Ru frowned tightly.

Gu Chen insisted: "I'm not kidding, if you don't let me go, I will secretly follow you!"

He also reminded her that if he acted secretly, Jiang Ru would probably be in even greater trouble.

Jiang Ru was so entangled by him that she had no choice but to turn around and look at Song Song with a pleading look: "Song Song, what do you think we should do? Gu Chen insisted on following me."

Song Song looked embarrassed and tried to refuse Gu Chen: "Gu Chen, this meeting is really crucial. You can't just bring anyone with you. You'd better not go."

Gu Chen immediately started a verbal battle: "Song Song, don't be so stingy. I'm not going to cause trouble. I can also help with some ideas, and maybe even facilitate this cooperation."

Song Song disagreed with him going and was a little overwhelmed by what he said: "Gu Chen, this is not a question of who is against whom. This is a matter of great importance to the interests of the company."

"Hmph, you're just afraid that I'll steal your credit." Gu Chen hit back mercilessly.

Song Song was so angry that his face turned red: "Gu Chen, stop talking nonsense!"

But Gu Chen refused to give in and continued to argue: "If you don't want me to go, I will disrupt the situation!"

He can only use threats, and he has many ways to prevent the two people from reaching a cooperation.

In the end, Song Song was defeated by Gu Chen's powerful offensive and sighed helplessly: "I am really impressed by you. Let's go together. I warn you, don't make trouble."

So, under the persistence of the male Gu Chen, they had no choice but to set out together to meet their partner, Liang Qi.

Arriving at the agreed location, Liang Qi had been waiting for a long time in a spacious and luxurious conference room.

"You are finally here, I have been waiting for you for a long time!" He was wearing a neat suit, his hair was combed meticulously, and he had a seemingly friendly smile on his face, but there was a hint of imperceptible cunning in his eyes.

After everyone sat down, Gu Chen's eyes fell on Liang Qi. Suddenly, he frowned and asked Liang Qi, "Why do you look so familiar to me? Are you really a foreigner?"

The other party is not from the Li Kingdom, and looks more like someone from China.

Liang Qi's expression flashed with a hint of panic as he spoke fluent Li language, but he quickly concealed it and said calmly, "Maybe I have an ordinary face, sir. I am really a foreigner. I am mixed-race, so I tend to be more inclined towards your country and I know a little bit of your language."

Then he took out his ID card and stated that he was the president of Liang Group.

Feeling a little guilty, he changed the subject to cooperation: "Everyone, let's discuss the details of the cooperation. I really want to cooperate with you!"

Gu Chen stared at him closely, his eyes full of suspicion.

Next, Song Song began to introduce the cooperation plan in detail. Liang Qi seemed to be listening carefully, nodding from time to time, but his eyes were always wandering.

"As for the cooperation, when can we start to finalize it? Jiang Ru originally wanted to sign the contract as soon as possible, but the other party has not yet produced the contract.

"Don't worry, let's talk about more details!"

Liang Qi made an excuse to decline, but it just seemed a little unprofessional.

The other person looks very young. If he is really the boss, why is he so young?

Jiang Ru keenly felt that Liang Qi's attitude was a bit perfunctory, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart, but when he thought that the other party was introduced by Song Song, he dispelled his doubts.

After working together for a while, Jiang Ru got up and went to the bathroom: "Excuse me, I need to go to the bathroom."

"Excuse me for a moment, I'm going too!" Seeing this, Gu Chen also made an excuse to follow.

In the bathroom, Jiang Ru was washing her hands when Gu Chen walked in, approached her, and said in a low voice, "Jiang Ru, wake up, this is a scam."

Jiang Ru was startled and turned to look at Gu Chen with disbelief on her face: "Gu Chen, what are you talking about? What kind of scam is this?"

Gu Chen's expression was serious and solemn: "Jiang Ru, can't you see that? That Liang Qi is a fake. He doesn't understand cooperation at all."

Jiang Ru's eyes widened: "How is that possible? Don't talk nonsense."

Gu Chen took a deep breath: "Jiang Ru, think about it carefully. Since we came in, has he raised any professional questions or constructive suggestions? Also, when I mentioned that he looked familiar, he felt so guilty."

Jiang Ru's face turned pale, and her voice trembled a little: "But..."

Gu Chen interrupted her: "Jiang Ru, let me tell you, this Liang Qi was invited by Song Song to act out a trick, just to make you fall into the trap they set."

Jiang Ruru was struck by lightning, her body swaying: "What did you say? Song Song? Why did he do this?"

Gu Chen held Jiang Ru's shoulders and looked at her firmly: "Jiang Ru, Song Song has plans for you. I don't know what they are, but this so-called cooperation is definitely a cover."

Jiang Ru's thoughts were in a mess. She didn't want to believe that Song Song would treat her like this, but Gu Chen's words made her doubt.

"Let's go back first and see what they want to do next." Gu Chen took Jiang Ru's hand and prepared to leave the bathroom.

Jiang Ru felt extremely heavy-hearted. She didn't know how to face all this when she returned.
