When the man’s large shadow came down, Jiang Sese met Jin Fengchen’s deep look. She could sense what was coming and blushed even harder. She hid in the blankets, but Jin Fengchen pulled her out of them. “Sese.” The man’s low, hoarse voice traveled into Jiang Sese’s ears. The floor was strewn with clothes. The pale moonlight shone through the cracks of the blinds in slivers, as though it were trying to discover the secrets within. The next day… Jiang Sese was in agony; her entire body was sore. She could not even move her fingers. She turned and snuggled into the warm chest belonging to the body next to hers. The man had long been awake. Noticing Jiang Sese’s flirtily coming near him, he could not help but find it amusing. “Are you up?”“Hmm…” Groaning, Jiang Sese did not even have the energy to open her eyes. She did not know what Jin Fengchen did last night, but she could not get any sleep until midnight. “It’s afternoon already.” Jin Fengchen laughed. He knew tha
A voice suddenly called out, and its tone was one of resignation. Jin Fengchen’s eyes narrowed. Tightening his hold on Jiang Sese’s hand, they walked in to find a servant waiting for them. “Mr. Fu is waiting for you upstairs.” They ascended the stairs slowly. Jiang Sese looked around the villa and could not help but feel somewhat frustrated. Fu Jingyun was still enamored with these vapid, lifeless knick-knacks--meticulously maintained, just like him.When they reached the upstairs living room, Jiang Sese could not help but feel somewhat apprehensive. Fu Jingyun was seated in a chair with a teacup in his hand. He was looking out the window as though he were contemplating something. As though he sensed their presence, he turned. His gaze fell on Jiang Sese; it was profound and distant, full of undisguised emotion. Jiang Sese looked down; her palms were beginning to sweat. Fu Jingyun was standing before her, and while he was now her adversary, he had saved her before. Tha
Jin Fengchen stiffened. He did not expect Fu Jingyun to help conceal them. If Catalina were to discover their presence here, he guessed that they would not be able to leave this house so easily. Looking around, Fu Jingyun’s furnishings were sparse. There were no large objects to hide behind. His gaze fell on the door to the bedroom. Jin Fengchen hesitated. That was a private space. As he was hesitating, Fu Jingyun had already opened the door and beckoned them to hide in there. Outside, Catalina had not yet received a reply and doggedly continued knocking. After Jin Fengchen led Jiang Sese into the room, Fu Jingyun quickly adjusted his clothes and ran downstairs to get the door. Catalina saw Fu Jingyun’s slightly flushed face and asked suspiciously, “What took you so long?” Fu Jingyun calmly turned to walk up the stairs and returned to his seat. “I needed to change.” Catalina glanced suspiciously at Fu Jingyun’s clothes; it looked like the same ones he wore the day bef
Fu Jingyun got in the car with a stony expression, seeming like he had yet to forgive Catalina for her prior indiscretion. The sun was glaring, and Fu Jingyun pulled on his shades. However, it was not to block out the sunlight. He did not want Catalina to notice that his eyes were tearing up again. Fu Jingyun closed his eyes and wearily leaned against the seat. His mind was still replaying every scene from the past three years. When they got out of the car, Fu Jingyun had already regained composure and was once again aloof as usual. Jin Fengchen led Jiang Sese home after obtaining the documents. On the journey, Jiang Sese could no longer repress her emotions. She began to sob uncontrollably. Even though they had confronted each other--she had even made her decision--Jiang Sese’s heart was still very soft. She remembered all the protection Fu Jingyun had provided her, and she could not simply erase the kindness he had shown her. Thinking of the final look that was in F
Before he went to the office, Jin Fengchen left instructions for the bodyguards to keep a close watch and make sure Jiang Sese was safe. If anything out of the ordinary happened, they were to report immediately. He was worried that someone would take advantage of the chaos to do something to Jiang Sese. When he reached the office, Gu Nian was there waiting for him. When he saw Jin Fengchen enter, he immediately stood as straight as a rod and bowed his head. “My apologies Young Master, we could not get him. They managed to throw our people off the scent.” Jin Fengchen nodded contemplatively before he calmly said, “They came prepared. It’s not your fault. Tell me specific details.” Fortunately, the core data had been recovered. “Very well,” Gu Nian replied solemnly and immediately gave a detailed report. After he described the situation, he said thoughtfully, “However, even though they switched cars, we got a glimpse of the license plate. I’ve got people investigating it now,
“You just injured numerous employees of mine. These are all men that I spent large sums of money to recruit. Someone has to take responsibility for their injury. If you had left, I’d have to just eat the loss completely. However, if you have been so kind as to stay, I imagine you must have your regrets, am I right?” Jin Fengchen smirked. Without waiting for Bo Gelian to reply, he lifted his hand and made a number, “Therefore, pay this much per person in compensation. Mr. Bo Gelian you’re very well off; this sum must be nothing to you.” Bo Gelian saw the number he was making, and his face instantly darkened. He did not think that Jin Fengchen would pull such a trick! His teeth ached with rage. He leaped up violently from the sofa. He could no longer keep up the act, so he dropped it completely, “So what if I beat up a few of your people? Compensation? Is your company insolvent, and now you’re just looking to make a quick buck out of me!” Jin Fengchen laughed coldly and glanced a
“Then he was here today…” “To see the show.” Jin Fengchen’s expression was icy. When he heard that, Gu Nian suddenly understood. Bo Gelian had very clearly shot himself in the foot. Gu Nian collected himself and asked, “Young Master, what do we do now?” Bo Gelian was already so cocky that he had already climbed over their heads. He was now insufferable. Jin Fengchen kept a straight face and he simply said, “Don’t act too rashly.” Gu Nian had been by Jin Fengchen’s side for many years, but he still could not follow his line of thought. If Gu Nian were to have his way, they would have retaliated to this affront immediately. Bo Gelian would experience the feeling of being hard-pressed as well. As if he knew what Gu Nian was thinking, Jin Fengchen said coldly, “The company has lost a lot and we must seek revenge, but now is not the time. If we act now, Bo Gelian will definitely take advantage of the situation to put up another display. The company will be put in an even w
Without knowing why, Bo Gelian could not help but feel unsure in his heart. …In the Jin Group conference room, the upper-level managers looked at each other, unsure of what Jin Fengchen, who was seated at the head of the table with an indistinguishable expression, was thinking. A while later, Jin Fengchen threw a stack of documents on the table and said with a stern expression, “I’m sure everyone has seen the extent of the company’s current losses. Now…” Before he finished speaking, everybody at the scene could feel a slight chill. 10 minutes later, Jin Fengchen walked out of the conference room, and everyone else in the room breathed a sigh of relief. … Over the next two days, Jin Fengchen was almost constantly at the office, never leaving it. The company’s situation began to slowly improve.All of the information they had lost slowly began to be recovered. Looking at the numbers jumping on the screen, Jin Fengchen’s lips curled into a cold smile. When Gu Nian opene
