Chapter 139: Bird in a Cage

Li Jingshen did not sleep all night. He got up at dawn. The first thing he did was not to wash and change clothes, but to stand on the balcony, open the window and smoke.

The ashtray on the table was already filled with cigarette ashes and butts. When he ran into Zhou Xiao downstairs, he suddenly stopped her and asked, "Do you think I'm good to Shen Zhichu?"

Zhou Xiao was stunned. Is it okay? In her opinion, it was good, but after hearing what Shen Zhichu said, she was not so sure.

Zhou Xiao looked at Li Jingshen's scarlet eyes, her heart skipped a beat, and she smiled brightly: "You are especially good to your wife!"

Li Jingshen asked thoughtfully: "What's good about it?"

Zhou Xiao couldn't quite put it into words, but she could feel that the man in front of her liked Shen Zhichu. Zhou Xiao was glad that she had read the latest hot searches yesterday.

"Didn't you bid a high price yesterday to buy an island to build an amusement park for your wife? 520 million, this number shows your love for her, and it's obvious that your wife likes to go to amusement parks..." Zhou Xiao racked her brains and said a lot.

Zhou Xiao was absolutely speaking the truth. She was extremely envious when she saw the trending news. If there was a handsome and rich man who spent more than 2 billion to build an amusement park for her, she would be so happy that she would faint.

Therefore, Li Jingshen is really good to Shen Zhichu, at least he is not like some men who just talk but do nothing.

Li Jingshen was comforted by Zhou Xiao, and his gloomy expression relaxed.

When he went to the company, he met Zhao Qian and asked the same question again.

"Do you think I'm good to Shen Zhichu?"

This question confused Zhao Qian. Various images emerged in his mind. He tried to think about the good side, but his mind was filled with Shen Zhichu's weak and pale face. To be honest, he really couldn't see that Li Jingshen was good to Shen Zhichu. But should he tell the truth?

He glanced at Li Jingshen cautiously. Li Jingshen's expression was just like his heart, incomprehensible.

Li Jingshen waited for a while but got no answer, and became a little impatient: "Why, is my question difficult to answer?"

Zhao Qian quickly shook his head. To be on the safe side and avoid being fired, he could only lie against his conscience: "You treat Miss Shen very well."

Li Jingshen sat in the boss chair, leaning back on the soft backrest, with his shirt sleeves rolled up, revealing his muscular arms.

He opened the drawer, took out a pack of cigarettes, lit it, took a puff and asked casually: "Then tell me, what are the things about me that are good to her?"

Zhao Qian's mind was more active than Zhou Xiao's, and he lied without a second thought: "You helped bury Miss Shen's father. Also, what you said in front of the reporters yesterday moved me, a man. You still trust her so much that you handed over such a big project as Nanhai Island to her."

Li Jingshen rested his cigarette-holding hand on the armrest of the chair, flickering it intermittently. Ashes and sparks flickered as they fell to the ground. Li Jingshen muttered to himself, "Then why is she still so cold to me? Does she hate me?"

Zhao Qian: “…” He scratched his head, racking his brains, not knowing what to say.

After a long while, he finally thought of a comforting word: "Boss Li, this woman is like water. You have to go along with her and coax her more. Don't impose your own ideas on her. If she gets used to some details, she will become inseparable from you and know your goodness."

Li Jingshen raised his eyebrows and glanced at him: "You understand so well, have you ever been in love?"

Zhao Qian was a little embarrassed: "Isn't this a chance to talk about it?"

"It's just empty talk." Li Jingshen sneered, "Give the information about Nanshui Island to Shen Zhichu, and when she comes to the company later, you can follow her."

"So I will be her assistant from now on?"

"Any comments?"

"No, no." Zhao Qian hurriedly shook his head. Not only did he not have any objections, but he was also very satisfied. It was obvious that Shen Zhichu was easier to get along with than Li Jingshen.

"Assist her and don't let her get tired."

"Of course." Zhao Qian gave a flattering smile, "Mr. Li, you are really considerate to Miss Shen."

Li Jingshen put out the cigarette.
