Chapter 41 Zhenzhen, let's go to sleep.

After putting Tuantuan to sleep, Shen Zhen glanced at her phone and found that both Jiang Yu and Jiang Che had called her. A warm feeling filled her heart; she had a lover, friends, and a child—she should be content.

But when I wake up in the middle of the night, I always feel sad. My parents' love is something I can only hope for but never reach. The more I expect, the more disappointed I become. After accumulating so much disappointment, it's time to wake up.

【It's Che, not Zhe】: Oh my god, I absolutely love how CEO Gu protects his wife with such domineering power...

[Xiao Yu'er]: Xiao Che'er, I'm also very bossy, you can come into my arms!

【是澈不是辙】：呜呜呜，人喜欢男人力MAX的，不是你的人！

【It's Zhenzhen】: Ugh... Are you two here to care about me or to perform a comedy routine?!

[Xiaoyuer]: Baby, of course I care about you! When the video of President Gu fiercely protecting his wife came out, we were all terrified. But after a while, it disappeared from the internet again.

Shen Zhen was slightly taken aback. She knew there would be so many people at the Gu family's gate today, and someone would definitely take pictures. She hadn't expected that A-Shu had already taken care of it. Her heart warmed. Her A-Shu always couldn't bear to see her get hurt in the slightest.

[It's Zhenzhen]: Did I scare you? I'm just a little dirty, it's nothing serious!

[Xiaoyuer]: Baby, when it's convenient for you to come out and see me, I miss you~

[It's Zhenzhen]: Okay, I'll be there to cheer you on at your match! Love you, mwah~

[It's Che, not Zhe]: You two think I'm dead?! What about me? What about me? What about me?

Shen Zhen was looking down at her phone when Yu Shu snatched it away.

"Hey? Give it to me! I'm texting right now!" Shen Zhen got up, knelt in front of Yu Shu, and stretched out her arm to grab it.

Yu Shu put her arm around Chen Zhen's waist and tossed her phone onto the sofa in the bedroom. "Stop playing! Go to sleep!"

"Snap!" The room plunged into darkness. Yu Shu pulled her into his arms and said in a deep voice, "Zhenzhen, let's sleep..."

Shen Zhen froze, afraid to move. She didn't know if this was Yu Shu's invitation or if they were really going to sleep. She always felt that spending so much time with Yu Shu made her think of strange things.

Gu Yushu chuckled and patted Chen Zhen's head. "Zhenzhen, you were frightened today. Don't think about strange things. Go to sleep."

...

Chen Lin and Shen Guodong were detained for several days and came out of the detention center looking disheveled.

Chen Lin tightened her clothes. "Honey, what should we do now? That woman sent people to steal the photos, and now we have nothing to threaten her with. Should we go and stake out that brat's house? We have to get Xiao Huai out!"

Shen Guodong patted his coat pocket, took out a cigarette, took a puff, narrowed his eyes, and said fiercely, "Hmm... we still have to work on the old woman. If all else fails, we'll go back to our hometown and find Zhang Hua. Let's fight to the death and see if they have any shame!"

Chen Lin's eyes lit up. "Hmph! As long as I can rescue Xiao Huai, I'll do anything!"

As the two were walking forward, their path was suddenly blocked. A middle-aged man said respectfully, "Gentlemen, please, our young lady!"

Chen Lin and Shen Guodong exchanged a puzzled look, then glanced at the several burly men standing behind the man, who were also staring at them expressionlessly.

Chen Lin was a little scared and gave a dry laugh. "What's wrong? Let's talk this out, okay? We'll go!"

Chen Lin and Shen Guodong were shoved into a car and then taken to a high-end club.

A long-haired woman was lounging lazily on the sofa. When she saw the two women approaching, she glanced at them disdainfully and parted her red lips slightly, saying, "Give them a lesson in manners!"

Chen Lin and Shen Guodong were pushed by the man behind them and stumbled. They were kicked hard in the back of their knees and couldn't take it, so they both knelt down.

Chu Chu tossed her long hair and slammed the wine bottle on the table with a "clatter!" Her face was gloomy, and she exuded a fierce aura as she walked over, her high heels clicking on the floor.

"Chen Lin? Shen Guodong?" A flat, emotionless voice rang out.

"Yes...yes..." Chen Lin replied hesitantly, mustering her courage to look up. It wasn't the woman Shen Zhen had climbed up to. She was puzzled; they hadn't offended anyone else...

"Chen Zhen's parents?" Chu Chu asked casually, her expression obscured by the dim light, as she stood condescendingly in front of Chen Lin and Shen Guodong.

Chen Lin assumed that Shen Zhen had offended someone who was now targeting them, and repeatedly said, "That little bitch's business has nothing to do with us! If you want to find someone, go find her! Don't come looking for us!"

Chu Chu's eyes instantly reddened with anger. Were these really Chen Zhen's parents? Throwing paint at her and constantly cursing her. When she found out, she desperately wanted to rush over and comfort Chen Zhen. But she knew she had no right… so she could only teach these two old hags a lesson. What Sister Shu disdained to do, she would do!

Chu Chu lifted her slender high heels and gently stepped on Chen Lin's palm, gradually increasing the pressure on her foot and grinding it down.

"Ah!!!!" A pig-like scream came from inside the house. Chen Lin's face was pale, and beads of cold sweat appeared on her forehead.

Shen Guodong, standing to the side, was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, his head bowed low, not daring to even glance at Chu Chu.

A cold smile played on Chu Chu's red lips, making her look like a demon from hell, quite frightening. When these two treated Shen Xiaozhen like that, did they ever consider that she would feel pain and fear? Did they ever consider that someone might avenge her?

Chu Chu was filled with hatred. She couldn't comfort Shen Zhen, but she could help her completely resolve the problem! If these two weren't Shen Zhen's parents, she thought she could just throw them into the sea to feed the fish!

Chen Lin sensed Chu Chu's murderous intent; the excruciating pain nearly made her faint. Trembling, she pleaded, "No... I won't dare again..."

Chu Chu ignored her and continued to press harder on Chen Lin's leg until she passed out. Only then did she gesture towards the person at the door and say, "Wake her up!"

The burly man at the door poured a bucket of ice water at Chen Lin. The temperature was already quite low in the early autumn night. Chen Lin opened her eyes shivering and was startled by the person in front of her.

Chu Chu's eyes were devoid of any warmth. "If I ever see you causing her any more trouble, it won't just be your hands that are crippled!"

"Speak!" Chu Chu's shrill voice pierced the eardrums.

Shen Guodong, who was standing to the side, was already drenched in cold sweat from fright. "Honey, please say yes!" she cried, shaking the weak Chen Lin and pleading with Chu Chu, "We won't do it again, we'll never do it again!"

Satisfied, Chu Chu walked out of the private room and said to the burly man at the door, "Keep an eye on him. Once he wakes up, throw him out of City A!"

"Yes, Miss Chu!" The burly man was terrified. This Miss Chu was truly ruthless; judging from the force she used, her hand was probably broken!
