The Domineering Chief Dotes on His Wife

Chapter 685 I still can't help but worry about him

Lin Jiaran was just about to walk to the window to see what was going on when her cell phone rang.

After the call, Lin Jiaran walked to the window and saw a car parked downstairs with the headlights shining. Then she hung up the phone and said to Xu Hui, "It's your brother downstairs."

"I was shocked. I thought it was something dirty."

Lin Jiaran and Xu Hui came downstairs, and Xu Fang was alone at the door.

"I won't be going back tonight."

"Dad asked me to take you back. He has something important to tell you."

"Let me go back overnight?"

"Let's go."

"I'm not leaving!" Xu Hui had already stepped out of the door, but thinking that Lin Jiaran would be alone if she left, she immediately retracted her foot.

Xu Fang grabbed Xu Hui's hand and forcibly took her out.

"Xu Fang, I told you I'm not leaving, you don't understand me, right?"

Xu Hui was taken away despite being noisy. Before getting on the car, she saw Lu Jingshen standing beside the car, bending over and holding the front of the car with his hands. Xu Hui instantly quieted down.

"Okay, I can walk on my own!"

Lin Jiaran had just walked upstairs when she heard the doorbell ringing downstairs. Thinking that Xu Hui might not leave again, she opened the door without looking at who was outside.

The door opened, and it was not Xu Hui.

Outside the door, Lu Jingshen stood there, reeking strongly of alcohol, his right hand resting on the door for support.

I didn't want to pay attention to him at first, as he seemed to have drunk quite a bit of alcohol, so Lin Jiaran opened the door a little wider.

Seeing that Lu Jingshen was staggering and could barely walk, Lin Jiaran did not lend a hand to support him.

After entering the room, Lu Jingshen did not say anything. He groped his way behind Lin Jiaran, holding on to the stairs with his hands.

With a snap…

When Lin Jiaran heard the sound, she immediately turned around and saw that it was Lu Jingshen who bumped into the mural on the wall. She still walked down and offered to support him.

After returning to the room, Lu Jingshen fell asleep. His cell phone rang, but he ignored it.

Seeing that it was Shen Boren's call, Lin Jiaran answered the call. Shen Boren's mellow voice came from the phone first, "I hope you pretend not to know what you know today."

Shen Boren hung up the phone after he finished speaking.

Lin Jiaran frowned and wondered what was going on between Lu Jingshen and Shen Boren.

"Lu Jingshen."

After being called several times, Lu Jingshen finally responded. Usually when he was drunk, Lu Jingshen would talk more and walk more steadily.

He fell into a deep sleep as soon as he touched the bed, which showed that he was really drunk and unconscious. Even his response was low and unclear.

"What have you been busy with today?" Lin Jiaran asked after hearing Lu Jingshen's response.

"Drink." Lu Jingshen answered with his eyes closed.

"Have you been drinking all day today? Who did you drink with?"

"Yeah, a lot of people."

"There are many people. Is Shen Boren among them?"

"Yes, yes."

After Shen Boren went to the airport with her, they went their separate ways when they came back. It was probably that they met again after leaving the airport.

"Did you say anything?" Lin Jiaran asked again.

"Yeah, that's a lot."

"What did you say?"

"Let me go find him alone tomorrow."

"Why would I let you go find him alone tomorrow?"

"I don't know, he didn't say."

Lin Jiaran did not continue to ask questions and kept Lu Jingshen's answer in mind.

In the morning, when Lu Jingshen woke up, he was the only one left in the bed. There was no sign of Mrs. Lu beside him, and he was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday.

When Lu Jingshen came downstairs, Lin Jiaran was still sleeping on the sofa, covered with a thin blanket.

Last night, Lin Jiaran slept in the living room downstairs.

Hearing Lu Jingshen making a phone call, Lin Jiaran woke up and sat down, only to find that Lu Jingshen was sitting next to her.

The doorbell broke the silence. Lin Jiaran went to open the door and saw it was Shen Boren.

"I'm here to discuss some company matters with Lu Jingshen."

"Why don't you go to the company to discuss company matters?"

"He's going to take over the company, so if there's anything, it's inconvenient to talk about it in the company so as not to cause unnecessary impact. We have to talk about it privately."

Last night, when Lu Jingshen was drunk, he told Shen Boren that he wanted to come to see him alone today. Shen Boren came so early in the morning, probably because he couldn't wait to ask Lu Jingshen something.

So, Lin Jiaran opened the door, stood aside and said, "It's hot outside, come in and talk if you have anything to say."

Shen Boren and Lu Jingshen were talking downstairs. Lin Jiaran pretended to walk away and then eavesdropped through the wall.

At first, the two of them were still talking about work normally.

"You didn't say anything when you came back yesterday, right?" Shen Boren asked in a low voice, changing the subject.

"No, she never asks me questions about my work."

"Didn't she ask you about coming to Jincheng this morning?"

"No."

"I'm watching your performance, otherwise I wouldn't talk to you in a friendly manner." As Shen Boren said this, he looked at the door over there.

"I don't really want to talk to you properly either." Lu Jingshen replied in the same tone.

Lin Jiaran frowned as she listened. What was going on?

Could it be that these two people are not on good terms with each other in front of her?

"Well, that's good. Just keep this attitude towards me." Shen Boren said in a gentle tone.

"???"

What do these two people mean and what are they acting together?

cough cough...

Suddenly Shen Boren started coughing, and coughed several times in a row.

"I have contacted relevant experts, and timely surgery has a high cure rate."

Timely surgery has a high cure rate. What does Lu Jingshen mean by this?

I heard Shen Boren coughing yesterday, and he did it again just now. Is Shen Boren sick?

"I will go for the surgery after your wedding. Don't let Jia Jia know about this. I know it's my fault that she doesn't want to care about me. I don't want to use my illness to gain her sympathy."

Lin Jiaran heard everything the two people said clearly, but she walked away before they finished listening.

Last night, Shen Boren's words should have been a warning to Lu Jingshen not to disclose the fact that he was ill.

Lin Jiaran looked embarrassed. After all, she couldn't let go of her father in her heart, but she just didn't want to admit it.

But when she heard the news that he was sick, she couldn't help but worry about him.

After Shen Boren left, Lu Jingshen came upstairs and saw Lin Jiaran leisurely drawing with a pen.

After staying at the door for a few seconds, Lu Jingshen walked in. Mrs. Lu was so quiet, he knew that she had heard something and was feeling sad, so she was trying to find a way to divert her attention.

Walking over, Lu Jingshen used his big hands to play with the soft hair.

"Can't you just stand aside if you have nothing to do?" Lin Jiaran stood up, frowned, and turned her head to the side without looking up at Lu Jingshen.

"Is Mrs. Lu angry with me?"

"Didn't you say you were going on a business trip? Why are you in Jincheng?"

"I thought you wouldn't know."

“Take me as a Mongolian?”

Lu Jingshen took a step forward, held the little head with his big hand, bit his upper lip with his thin lips, and lowered his voice, "No way, I treat you as my baby."

"Don't be disgusting." Lin Jiaran pushed the man standing in front of her. She always felt that he did it on purpose, but she couldn't find any substantial evidence.

"Didn't you see the call I made to you yesterday?"

"I saw it. I knew you were mad at me, so I didn't answer it."

"???"

"I want to apologize to you in person like this!" Lu Jingshen said as he took another step forward.

Knowing that she was angry, yet he dared not answer the phone!

Lin Jiaran stepped back silently, not wanting to get too close to Lu Jingshen.

Every time she took a step back, he took a step forward, pressing closer and closer.

Until she retreated to the wall, Lin Jiaran squatted for a while, trying to slip away. Lu Jingshen had predicted this and made preparations in advance. He grabbed her small arm with his big hand and pulled her into his arms. Lin Jiaran's entire back was leaning against the wall.

"I haven't even apologized yet, why are you in such a hurry to leave, Mrs. Lu?"

The way he spoke made it seem like he was going to kiss her at any moment. Lin Jiaran turned her head away. She felt a little angry, and every cell in her body was strongly resisting getting close to the man in front of her.

Lu Jingshen lowered his head, and his thin lips moved directly towards a certain target.

There was no strong resistance or response, but his big hand felt a burning sensation on the little cheek.

His warm fingertips gently caressed his tear-soaked eyes, and he spoke in a low but gentle voice, "I shouldn't have lied to you. It's my fault. Please stop crying."

Hearing the gentle voice, her long and thick eyelashes trembled, and her slightly red eyes looked into his deep eyes. She blinked and said nothing.

She cried not because she was angry about whether Lu Jingshen lied to him, but because she didn't want to admit in person that she was worried about Shen Boren's illness.
