"If that's not the case, then that's good. I hope I'm overthinking things. Xiaochun, you stay by my side. There's no need to think about anything. I'll protect you and Little Xin." With one hand on the steering wheel, Yu Chen's other hand extended to the passenger seat and lightly squeezed Zhou Manzhen's hand.
Zhou Man smiled with her pure eyes. There was some spirit energy in her eyes. She whispered, "Okay."
"Xiaochun, I have a social meetup tonight and might be coming home a little later. Can you go home by yourself after work?" Yu Chen asked gently.
"Chen, you don't have to worry about me. Of course I can."
He wondered what life would be like in a month, and if he would be messed up by Jin Beisan. She was truly afraid of dragging Yu Chen into this mess. Perhaps three years ago, she shouldn't have allowed Yu Chen to help her. But now, every step of the way was completely wrong.
JS International.
Jin Beiseng was wearing a simple white shirt, with his black hair sticking out on top of his head, followed by a group of capable senior officials.
Pushing open the office door, Jin Beisheng tugged on his tie, and just as he sat down, his phone rang.
"Is it Chief Jin?" Tang Yi believed Zhou Manzhen's words and called Jin Beiseng.
Jin Beisen and Tang Yi immediately recognized his voice from the phone, "It's me. Mr. Tang, is there something you need?"
Director Jin, I'm really sorry. In the morning, YC Group's Director Yu and his wife, Miss Zhou, came to find me. They said that they were willing to buy my land for 900 million.
Jin Beisan pursed his lips, and suddenly laughed: "Little unforeseen event?"
"Chairman Jin, I would also like to sell my land to you, but you should know that my current situation is very difficult, the bidding is for the highest bidder." Tang Yi said humbly, but his ambition wasn't small.
"You mean you want to go back on your word now?" A complicated look appeared in Jin Beisen's eyes, his words immediately full of warning.
"I didn't promise you anything before, did I?" Tang Yi enunciated carefully, but in his heart, he felt as if he was treading on thin ice, afraid that he would accidentally anger Jin Beisan.
"Interesting." Jin Beisan hung up Tang Yi's phone and immediately called JS International's legal advisor.
The day after Zhou Manquan returned home, Jin Beisheng had his lawsuit written by his lawyer. Originally, Jin Beiseng wanted to let this go, but Zhou Manquan was getting more and more desperate, so he had no choice but to use some tricks to divorce her and Yu Chen, or to send her to jail. Jin Beiseng did not believe that someone as smart as her would choose to go to jail.
In the evening, the sky suddenly changed in A City. Dark clouds covered the city, and the air was especially sultry. Along with the loud sound of thunder, heavy rain fell.
Seven Caritas Foundation.
The time to get off work had already passed, and all the employees of the Foundation had started getting off work one by one. Zhou Manzhen did not drive over today. Looking at the pouring rain outside his window, he began to feel depressed.
Roughly a quarter of an hour later, the rain did not seem to be getting any heavier. The water was already so thin that it covered the ground. Zhou Manzhu stood on the steps, looking out at the traffic. He picked up his phone and was about to call a fast train.
Jin Beisen's phone call came by coincidence. Zhou Man wanted to pretend she didn't see it. She glanced at her phone and purposely didn't pick it up.
At this moment, a black Bugatti drove through the rain below the foundation building. Suddenly, it braked and splashed water.
Zhou Manzhen looked over to the black Bugatti and immediately looked away. In City A, there were only a few people who could afford to drive a Bugatti.
The car window slowly lowered, revealing his angular face. Zhou Manzhen still wanted to pretend that she didn't see him, but she turned her head, preparing to enter the Foundation Establishment. In any case, it was raining heavily now, so she definitely wouldn't be able to leave in a short period of time.
Unexpectedly, just as she took half a step, Zhou Manzhen's foot slipped and she almost fell on the marble tiles. She quickly held onto the glass door and steadied her body. A sharp pain came from her ankle.
The bag on her shoulder was already hanging down. Zhou Manzhen stood firmly in pain. Originally, she was already tired after wearing high heels for a day. Now that she sprained her ankle, she even had a headache.
Just as her head was lowered and squeezing her ankle, her body was suddenly lifted up by someone. Zhou Manzhen subconsciously wrapped her arms around his neck, until she saw Jin Beishen's pair of sinister eyes staring at her coldly. She quickly looked away and didn't say anything.
It had rained a few times, but the rain was heavy and Zhou Manzhen's clothes were somewhat wet.
Jin stuffed her into the passenger seat, then took a detour to the driver's seat. When he entered, Zhou saw that a large patch of moisture had formed on the man's tall back.
Seeing that she was sitting there foolishly, and didn't know that she was wiping with a napkin, Jin Beiseng impatiently said, "Are you an idiot? There's a tissue in the car.
"Oh." After being reprimanded so harshly, Zhou Manzhen's reaction was stupefied.
It was unknown what kind of luck she had today, it was so heavy that she twisted her ankle. She quickly picked up a few napkins, and then took a few more, passing them to Jin Beisan.
As the two of them wiped their hands, the atmosphere in the carriage became especially strange. Only when Zhou Man shrunk back did he realize that Jin Beiseng's white shirt was already soaked through. After getting wet, the shirt would fit tightly onto his perfect upper body.
The wipers were scraping automatically on the windshield in front of him, and as he drove, his thin lips pursed, he didn't say a word.
"What do you want from me?" Zhou Manzhen held the napkin in her hand, her fingertips white from the cold. She bit her lips and asked.
"Who said I was looking for you?" Jin Beisen stepped on the brake, and a red light just appeared in front of him. It was the peak hour of the day, and it was also rainy.
With a single sentence, Zhou Man shut her mouth. She changed the topic, "Then I'll have to trouble you to send me home."
Jin Beisen's cold voice carried a chill, "Which family are you talking about? Our home or yours and that illegitimate child's? "
"Jinbei Sen, can you not make it sound so bad? "Yu Chen has already acknowledged his ancestors." Zhou Manzhen furrowed his brows in anger, why did Jin Beishen keep saying such things about Yu Chen!
"What did I say wrong?" Jin Beisen released the brake, and the accelerator under his feet sped up, his cold tone full of disdain.
"No, you're right, right?" Zhou Manzhen said perfunctorily, thinking to himself, why would I care so much about Jin Beiseng's opinion?
