“My condolences.” Sir Chen patted Shangguan Qian on the shoulder, and a sigh escaped his lips. “We’re also very sorry that this happened.” The case was already in the final stages of the trial, and the accused suddenly died. Everyone in charge of the case was taken aback. Things happened so suddenly that something seemed suspicious. Right now, what was most important was to immediately find out Shangguan Yuan’s cause of death. However, would Shangguan Qian agree to it? Sir Chen hesitated before he said tentatively, “In order to be accountable to you and the public, we need to find out the cause of death.” “Was the doctor unable to find out?” Shangguan Qian turned to look at him. “No. Therefore…” Sir Chen paused. “The doctor would like to carry out an autopsy…” “Autopsy?!” Shangguan Qian’s eyes widened. “Have you gone mad? You want to carry out an autopsy?” Shangguan Qian clenched his fist. “If you need to carry out an autopsy to find out her cause of death, I’d rath
Shangguan Yuan’s death was all over the news, causing some strange stories to spread around. The news included that Shangguan Yuan had killed herself in despair as Jin Fengchen had hurt her feelings. There was even news that Jin Fengchen had lost his memories. All of this news was not good for the Jin Group, and it caused the company’s stock prices to drop by a few hundred points. “Young Master, how could outsiders know of you losing your memories?” Gu Nian was extremely confused. The affair had been hushed up very well. Apart from the Jin and Fang families, only Ying Tian, He Shuhan and himself knew about it; there was no one else. This was not right! Gu Nian’s expression suddenly froze. The Shangguan family also knew. Jin Fengchen saw the change in his expression, and his brows shifted slightly as he asked, “Did you think of something?” Gu Nian nodded. “Could it be that the Shangguan family had leaked this out?” His tone was slightly uncertain. “Apart from the
Shangguan Qian received a call from his assistant and found out that the Shan, Jiang, Bai and Yang families had all run into trouble. They were caught up in their own concerns and had no energy to spare to take on the Jin Group. Truthfully, he was unsurprised at this development. If Jin Fengchen could be so easily taken down, he would not be the force that he was in the marketplace for so many years. However, right now, he could not be distracted as well. To him, what was most important now was Shangguan Yuan’s funeral. He needed to make sure Yuanyuan left this world properly. The entire Shangguan residence was shrouded in grief. Shangguan Yuan’s body was kept in an ancestral hall behind the villa. Shangguan Yuan’s friends in life as well as other relatives of the Shangguan family all came to pay their respects. Even though there were quite a few people present, the memorial hall was still extremely quiet. “My condolences, Little Qian.” A relative walked over to Shanggu
The old lady pushed Shangguan Qian aside. Even with the cane, she walked as fast as she could, afraid that Shangguan Qian would stop her again. This time, Shangguan Qian did not stop her, and followed after her into the ancestral hall. Shangguan Yuan lay in the coffin. Her expression was peaceful. If not for the knowledge that she was already dead, it really seemed like she was asleep. As soon as she saw Shangguan Yuan, the Old Lady wept again, “Yuanyuan, it’s me, your grandma. Open your eyes and look at me…” The Old Lady swayed, as though she might faint. Luckily, Shangguan Qian caught her in time, “Grandma, watch out for your health. Yuanyuan would not want to see you like this.” “Yuanyuan, how could you leave me like this? Yuanyuan, my Yuanyuan…” The Old Lady beat her chest, bereft with grief. The butler who stood aside looked away and slowly wiped his tears. Shangguan Qian held the Old Lady tightly, his eyes reddening. The entire ancestral hall was overwhelmed wit
Madam Jin had not forgotten about her and Fang Xueman’s abduction. Everytime she thought about it, she felt some residual fear in her heart. She sighed heavily, “This is all karma, and it’s truly not worth feeling sorry about.” Jin Fengyao smiled, “Mom, that’s right.” “We can finally have peaceful days in the future.” Madam Jin smiled at Jiang Sese. Jiang Sese returned the smile and said nothing. The days really did become peaceful. Jin Fengchen still left home early and came back late, while Jiang Sese stayed at home, reading and being with the children. Meanwhile, ever since Shangguan Yuan’s funeral, the Shangguan family had gone quiet. There was not a peep from them. Until a week later, when the Shangguan Group suddenly announced that it would be working with the Shan, Jiang and Bai families to develop an artificial intelligence software. The investment sum was in the hundreds of millions. Instantly, the entire business world was shaken. The Jin Group at the time h
“Mr. Fang, can you control yourself better?” The makeup artist helped Liang Xinwei touch up her makeup as she said in half jest. She originally came to call for them to go for the photoshoot, but who would have thought that Liang Xinwei's lipstick was gone when she came in. Seeing Liang Xinwei so embarrassed that she did not dare to look at her, she knew what had happened. Touching up makeup was a trivial matter. However, if her lips turned swollen, then the makeup would not look good. "You made her so beautiful, how can I not be tempted?" Fang Yuchen asked seriously. "Fang Yuchen!" Liang Xinwei stared at him in embarrassment. Upon seeing this, the makeup artist laughed, "It's not that I made Ms. Liang beautiful, but rather she was beautiful all along." Fang Yuchen nodded in agreement, "You’re right. Just based on what you said, I will definitely give you full marks for your service today." "Thank you Mr. Fang." Liang Xinwei, who was listening to t
On the day of the engagement, the banquet hall on the third floor of the Hyatt, the largest hotel in the Capital, was beautifully decorated with white roses and dazzling crystal lights which looked extraordinarily romantic and dreamy. At this time, Liang Xinwei, who was in the upstairs lounge, was so nervous that her heart almost jumped out of her throat. "You’re sweating." Jiang Sese drew a paper towel to wipe the sweat from her forehead, "Don't be nervous, or your makeup will run." Liang Xinwei smiled reluctantly, and asked: "Sister Sese, do you think that every woman gets nervous about getting married?" "Of course." When Jiang Sese heard this question, she could not help but laugh, "A woman must be nervous about such a once in a lifetime event. However, as long as you think of being able to stay with the one you love for a lifetime, you mostly feel happy." "But we are just engaged, and I am so nervous. If I get married, I think I’d faint." Liang Xinwei said jokin
After returning to Jin City, the days passed by peacefully. Jiang Sese was going crazy at home, and suggested returning to the office to work. "Fengchen, there will be nothing wrong with you by my side." Jin Fengchen looked into her eyes full of expectation, and the corners of his mouth slowly raised, "Do you want to work that much?" Jiang Sese nodded heavily. Since Shangguan Yuan's death, everything has indeed returned to normal. It was very calm, as if what happened before was just a dream. However, Jin Fengchen always felt a little uneasy. "Fengchen, you are here, and we have Gu Nian and the others protecting us, nothing will happen." Jiang Sese was afraid that he would not agree, and quickly added another sentence. Fengchen Jin pondered for a moment, "...Okay, I’ll let you go back to the company, but you'd better stay with me all the time." Jiang Sese hurriedly responded, "No problem." In this way, Jiang Sese returned to work for the Jin Group, and
