How many loves can be relived in the story of a devoted CEO pursuing his wife?
Chapter 79 Thorough Investigation
The medical staff came in, gave Lin Lan a quick check and treated her injuries, and then left.
"Brother." Lin Lan, who was half-lying down, called out to him shamelessly as he came out of the bathroom.
He walked to the bedside and asked softly, a little awkwardly. "Hmm, are you hungry?"
"Hmm, a little." Lin Lan nodded. It was just past 9 o'clock, and she was a bit hungry.
"Knock knock knock~".
Just then, Ah Xiao came in carrying several bags. "Mr. Lin, Ms. Lin, good morning~".
Lin Lan smiled at Xiao. "Good morning, Xiao~".
"I brought you breakfast." Ah Xiao smiled back and then calmly laid out the breakfasts one by one.
"Thank you~". Lin Lan didn't stand on ceremony. After a night of running around, she was really starving.
"Don't mention it." Ah Xiao nodded, then turned to Lin Xuedong. "Mr. Lin, here is your computer and documents, as well as your clothes and daily necessities. I'll put them on the coffee table."
"Brother, what's wrong with you...?" Lin Lan asked, puzzled.
“I will stay here with you until you are discharged from the hospital.” He smiled gently.
Lin Lan felt a warmth in her heart upon hearing this, her bright, dark eyes brimming with emotion as she looked at him. "Mmm~, brother, you're so kind."
"Silly girl, don't think too much. I'll handle it. Eat while it's hot, don't go hungry. Okay?" Lin Xuedong habitually reached out and ruffled her hair, his tone gentle and doting.
"Okay, thank you, brother." What Lin Lan wanted most was to win his heart and his body. At least now, he was by her side, so she would continue to play the victim.
"Xiao, let's talk outside." Lin Xuedong nodded to Xiao and strode towards the door, with Xiao following silently.
There is a large window at the end of the corridor, and fewer people come and go from this side.
Ah Xiao took out a cigarette and lit it for Lin Xuedong, and carefully opened the window a little to let the air circulate.
Lin Xuedong took a deep drag on his cigarette, held it for a moment, and then slowly exhaled. The rising smoke obscured the grim expression on his face. "Give me a thorough examination of Junlan's room. Review all the security footage of her comings and goings. And this must be kept secret."
"Okay, I understand." Ah Xiao's expression was solemn, sensing the complexity of the situation. He lowered his head and responded.
"Tell the outside world that I went back to G City these past two days." Lin Xuedong narrowed his eyes, his voice cold and deep. "Go, investigate as quickly as possible, and don't alert anyone."
"Yes." Ash bowed and took his leave.
Lin Xuedong remained standing there, his eyes gazing at the clear blue sky.
His thoughts drifted away, and he was thinking of her again. At this time, they would usually be in the kitchen making breakfast together.
With such beautiful weather, they might go out and catch up on what they missed last week. The couple could go together to choose wedding rings and pick out a wedding dress.
Thinking of this, his heart felt like it had been pricked by a needle, a dull ache. He raised the cigarette in his hand, brought it to his lips, and began to smoke it, one puff at a time.
Instantly, the corner at the end of the corridor was filled with smoke. By the time he left, four or five cigarette butts were left on the ground.
On the other side of the city, the housekeeper who came in to tidy up the room that morning rescued Zeng Ziyan.
Before she left, she stared at the opposite door for a long time, still feeling resentful.
Chen Meiyuan picked her up. Once in the car, her unsatisfied expression made Chen Meiyuan laugh. "Alright, Ziyan, don't be angry. Being outmaneuvered might be a blessing in disguise."
Zeng Ziyan glanced at her. How could she not be angry? Her anger was practically bursting out. "That bitch Lin Lan, I'll make her pay!"
"They're siblings, you know! That's an explosive topic! Now that you have it in your hands, you're not at a huge loss." Chen Meiyuan raised her eyebrows, full of mischief.
"Lin Lan is just an adopted daughter of the Lin family; they are not related by blood!"
"Who cares? These big and powerful families value their reputation above all else, don't they?"
Chen Meiyuan undoubtedly hit the nail on the head, which eased Zeng Ziyan's mood considerably. "That's true, but now that she's ruined things, how am I supposed to establish myself with Brother Xue Dong?" Zeng Ziyan was very unwilling to give up after her failed attempt.
“What are you afraid of? This is all without evidence. You weren’t even there. It’s just Lin Lan’s side of the story. Can’t you still refute her? She might have her own ambitions too. Otherwise, why would she interfere?” Chen Meiyuan said casually, but she hit the nail on the head.
"Yes, how come I didn't think of that? Thank you, Meiyuan." Zeng Ziyan was secretly delighted, feeling as if the fog had lifted.
"I just find it strange that she's going to such lengths to obstruct me for no apparent reason. What are her intentions? Logically speaking, I have a good relationship with their family, and the marriage would be beneficial to both sides. Even her parents approve of it, so why is she interfering?" Zeng Ziyan continued to ponder the reasons behind the whole thing.
"So, being a woman myself, you know what I mean!" Chen Meiyuan gripped the steering wheel, glancing sideways at her with a mocking smile. "There's definitely something fishy going on. You have plenty of other options. Besides, don't you have me? What's the panic?"
"Hehe~, that's right." Zeng Ziyan blinked and chuckled, her mind starting a new round of calculations.
This Sunday, Lin Xuedong stayed with Lin Lan at the hospital to help her recover from her injuries.
There were bound to be some awkward moments in their interactions. Lin Xuedong suppressed his inner turmoil and did his best to take good care of his younger sister.
Neither of them commented on or discussed the matter. But since it has happened, it can't just be left to fade away. Perhaps they should let each other calm down and reflect for a couple of days.
Liu Sisi continued to wait obediently for her husband's return. Her body seemed to have recovered well after a good night's sleep. Her period was also nearing its end, which made her feel relaxed.
So, she went shopping alone today, took care of the house alone, and worked from home alone. Lin Xuedong's phone call this morning seemed to have a magical power to calm her down.
Time flies, and the Monday morning rush hour traffic jams arrived as expected on the major and minor roads of S City.
Liu Sisi waited for the elevator in the underground parking lot of the Lin's Building, along with all the Lin's employees who were rushing to work.
Just then, two familiar figures walked in from outside. They successfully attracted everyone's attention, and when people realized what was happening, they all greeted the two with flattery.
"Mr. Lin, good morning."
Liu Sisi looked up at the sound and met Lin Zhicheng's bright eyes. She subconsciously took two steps forward and smiled politely, saying, "Mr. Lin, good morning~".
He glanced at Zeng Ziyan beside him out of the corner of his eye, but smiled without saying a word.
"Good morning." Lin Zhicheng said only lightly, not really paying attention to Liu Sisi.
Later, the president's private elevator arrived at this floor first, and he and Zeng Ziyan entered the elevator together. As the elevator doors closed, he gave Liu Sisi a deep look, a meaningful smile on his face.
Liu Sisi watched them with a smile until the elevator doors closed, then gently shook her head. She sensed their disdain for her lowly status and felt a pang of helplessness.
Who can control their birth? She just needs to do her job well.
