Chapter 617: The Days of Politeness Are Yet to Come
The lights suddenly came on in the dark environment, and Lu Jingshen also walked in. Lin Jiaran's right hand was pinching Chu Nanxin's neck. Chu Nanxin grabbed Lin Jiaran's right hand with both hands to stop her.
When seeing Lu Jingshen appear, Chu Nanxin loosened her hands and Lin Jiaran stood up immediately.
cough cough...
Chu Nanxin touched his neck with one hand and pretended to cough.
"Chu Nanxin, what are you pretending for?" Lin Jiaran asked.
She clearly did nothing just now and was in a passive state.
"What's wrong?" Lu Jingshen strode towards Lin Jiaran and asked in a low voice.
Without waiting for Lin Jiaran to speak, Chu Nanxin spoke first with a pitiful look on her face, "Why did you pinch me?"
When Lin Jiaran heard Chu Nanxin say this, her pupils widened several times.
Where did she pinch her?
"Chu Nanxin, do you have any shame?"
Lu Jingshen stretched out his right hand and pulled Lin Jiaran away, ignoring Chu Nanxin who was sitting on the sofa.
Lin Jiaran frowned and looked at Lu Jingshen, wanting to say something, but Lu Jingshen shook his head slightly and gave her a look that indicated that she should leave first.
Just like that, the two of them left. Chu Nanxin didn't expect Lu Jingshen to have such an attitude. After the two of them left completely, she stood up from the sofa and walked out.
"Manager Chu!" The girl outside, who was wearing a long dress and holding a mobile phone in her hand, lowered her head in front of Chu Nanxin.
"Why are you here?" Chu Nanxin asked the girl with a stern face.
"Someone just stopped me and wouldn't let me in!"
"Who stopped you?"
"The man in the light-colored suit, I don't know who he is, I just know that his name is Mr. Lu, the tall man who just left."
Chu Nanxin's brows suddenly frowned, and a hint of panic appeared in her eyes.
Lu Jingshen took Lin Jiaran downstairs and walked towards the door. Chu Xiong saw that Lu Jingshen seemed to be leaving, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "It's still early, Mr. Lu, are you in a hurry to go back?"
Lu Jingshen glanced at Chu Xiong coldly and left without saying a word.
Zuo Meng was walking behind Lu Jingshen, and Chu Xiong strode forward and stopped Zuo Meng.
"I wonder why Mr. Lu is unhappy?"
"President Chu, please excuse me for a moment."
The two walked on the quiet side, and Zuo Meng took out his cell phone.
"I just accidentally captured a scene. Please take a look, President Chu."
Chu Xiong took the phone in confusion.
While Chu Xiong was looking at his phone, Zuo Meng said, "President Chu, you must know that the cooperation depends on your sincere attitude. As for the position of chairman, you must know who allowed it. Sunac can cooperate with anyone, but what will the new forces face without Sunac? President Chu, don't let family problems make everything come to nothing!"
After watching the video, Chu Xiong looked angry.
Zuo Meng left after leaving a few words. Because there were other people at the scene, his expression quickly became serious.
Lu Jingshen had already walked to the car with Lin Jiaran in his arms. He opened the door and let her get in first.
Lin Jiaran stood at the door of the car and didn't rush to get in. Her face was wrinkled. Chu Nanxin wanted to frame her while the lights were off. She left without saying a word. What if the news got out and someone misunderstood her? "Are we going back like this?"
"Still want to play?"
"What's so fun about this? If people spread the news tomorrow about what happened to me, how will I explain it then?"
"Who dares to talk nonsense?" Lu Jingshen said in a light tone. He placed his palm on Lin Jiaran and patted her lightly, signaling her to get in the car.
"Didn't you see what was happening?"
"I saw it. Zuo Meng is handling this matter. It's cold outside. Let's talk in the car first."
Lin Jiaran got into the car first, and then Lu Jingshen walked around and sat on the other side.
The driver had been waiting in the car with the heater and air conditioning on, so it was very warm inside.
"Someone wanted to go in and take pictures, but I stopped him in time!" Zuo Meng reported to Lu Jingshen after sitting in the passenger seat, and took out his mobile phone at the same time.
"Does anyone want to come in and take a picture of me?" Upon hearing this, Lin Jiaran immediately tilted her head slightly and looked towards the co-pilot and asked Zuo Meng.
Lu Jingshen was originally holding a mobile phone in his right hand and looking at it. Lin Jiaran's sitting posture was unsafe, so he changed his hand and stretched out his right hand to straighten her tilted little body.
"I was outside, and the woman was not photographed."
"Assistant Zuo, you didn't leave?"
"No."
The phone in Lu Jingshen's hand made a tiny sound. Lin Jiaran heard it and went over to take a look. There was a power outage at that time and Chu Nanxin came out. There was no power outage outside, which proved that only the power inside was out.
Including the words that Chu Nanxin asked the girl to go in and take pictures when she heard the screaming, Zuo Meng also recorded these words on his mobile phone.
Zuo Meng told Lin Jiaran that he would catch the girl after Chu Nanxin went in. Lu Jingshen estimated the time with Zuo Meng in advance to be five minutes. If Zuo Meng did not go downstairs within five minutes, Lu Jingshen would go upstairs.
After listening to Zuo Meng, Lin Jiaran looked at Lu Jingshen and asked, "You already knew what Chu Nanxin was going to do?"
"Why else would she approach you?"
"You mean she approached me just to frame me?"
"more than."
"Does she want me to die? I didn't do anything to her, why would she do this?"
Lu Jingshen returned the phone to Zuo Meng and said, "Let's talk about this when we get home."
The driver was not Zuo Nai, but another driver. Lin Jiaran just sat quietly on the side and said nothing more.
After returning home, Lin Jiaran temporarily put aside her fear of ghosts. As soon as she entered the house, she hurriedly asked Lu Jingshen why he didn't answer her questions.
"Do you remember what she told you about Zhang Qingyan?"
"It is said that Zhang Qingyan is dead. What does this have to do with her getting close to me?" Lin Jiaran said while changing her shoes.
"This matter is most likely related to her. Sooner or later the truth will be exposed. She is looking for a scapegoat, and you are a perfect fit!"
After changing her shoes, Lin Jiaran looked at Lu Jingshen and frowned as if she couldn't get any tighter after hearing this. "Why am I suitable?"
"Before Zhang Qingyan disappeared, Lu Jingcheng had looked for her. Chu knows about this. Because everyone knows that you and Zhang Qingyan are not on good terms, the blame will only be directed at you."
"But whatever she wants to do is just her pure idea."
"Is her idea still innocent?"
"I know all these things. I'm just waiting for her to show her true colors."
"Then how did you resolve today's issue?" Lin Jiaran asked worriedly. Although Zuo Meng was solving the problem, she was still afraid of being framed.
"Chu Xiong already knows about this matter, he will solve it himself!"
"President Chu is well-known for being afraid of his wife. He is in this situation today because of his wife. He is angry but dares not speak out."
"No matter how great the pressure from the Su family is, is it greater than the pressure I give him?"
"President Chu seems to be more polite to you than before."
"The days of courtesy are yet to come."
After the banquet, the father and daughter returned home.
Chu Nanxin was about to go upstairs when Chu Xiong stopped her.
"What's up, Dad?"
Chu Xiong's face was serious. He walked forward, stood in front of Chu Nanxin, raised his hand, and slapped Chu Nanxin hard on the right side of her face.
"Dad, what did I do wrong?" Chu Nanxin's eyes were blurred with tears as she covered her face which was hurt by the slap.
"How many times do I have to tell you, don't offend Lu Jingshen! Don't offend him! What are you thinking about that you have to offend him!" Chu Xiong was so angry that his face turned red, and he pointed at Chu Nanxin and yelled.
"I didn't." Chu Nanxin said with a sob.
"No? Do you really think Lu Jingshen is someone who can be easily fooled? If he was easily fooled, would I have ended up like this today?" Chu Xiong shouted even louder.
Chu Xiong knew very well that Lu Jingshen did not expose it in public today because he was giving himself a chance to deal with it.
As for Lu Jingshen's attitude towards his wife, he had heard about the incident in which Mrs. An bullied Lu Jingshen's wife. After that, Lu Jingshen took action against the An family. An's stock price plummeted and the family almost declared bankruptcy.
He had also witnessed that at that time, Lu Jingshen angrily smashed Meng Huairen's ashtray and even said harsh words to him. After that, Meng Huairen had no place to stay in the Ancheng business community.
Chu Xiong suppressed Chu Nanxin with a louder voice and she stopped talking.
Mrs. Chu heard the noise downstairs and came down. Chu Nanxin immediately threw herself into her mother's arms and burst into tears.
"Chu Xiong, how dare you hit my daughter!" Mrs. Chu saw Chu Nanxin's face suddenly filled with anger.
"If I don't beat her today, someone will punish her sooner or later! You are the one who spoiled her into this bad behavior!"
"Chu Xiong, don't forget who is responsible for your current situation!"
"Humph, I am where I am today because of my own ability!"
"If it weren't for my Su family, would you be here today?"
"Your Su family is so great, so take your daughter back to your Su family!" Chu Xiong said in a sarcastic tone.
"You want to drive my mother and I away?"
"Didn't you say that I am where I am today because of your Su family? This house has nothing to do with your Su family!"
"Chuxiong, don't regret it!"
The noise filled the house.
"It's all my fault, stop arguing."
"If I regret this, I, Chu Xiong, will change my surname to Su from now on!"
"Okay, Nan Xin, let's go!"
