Song Leilei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Luckily, our two families don't have that kind of melodramatic arranged marriage."
Xu Jingzhi: "I haven't asked, but maybe I have. Did you ask my husband? He has a lot of secrets he hasn't told me."
Unable to tolerate his constant banter, Song Leilei always found a way to deal with him.
Song Leilei pulled open his shirt around his waist, her brows and nose furrowing. "I see your wound looks like it's reopened. I'll ask you for an extra month's leave so you can recuperate properly."
Xu Jingzhi was so anxious she almost jumped out of bed. "Come back. I've lost to you, my ancestor."
The next morning, Xiao Liu found Zheng Lin and happened to see Miss Su from the previous night there as well.
After learning the details from Zheng Lin, before leaving, Xiao Liu said to Zheng Lin, "If you have any news about your brother, please contact us immediately. Don't be like you were two years ago, remaining completely silent to us."
Su Jin heard their conversation very clearly.
It turns out that two years ago, Zheng Guang helped Bai Qingchi escape from prison, and the two were on the run for two years.
In a sense, their love was stronger than gold, but Su Jin looked down on such a treacherous relationship. According to the timeline, Zheng Guang and Zhao Qiyuan's child was already a year old. Since he fled to various places with Bai Qingchi, he probably hadn't seen the child once since the child was born.
Xiao Liu: "Ms. Su, if you don't have anything important to do on the island, I personally suggest you leave as soon as possible. They are too familiar with this area, and they don't know where they are hiding right now. Given your past entanglements, it is not appropriate for you to stay here."
"Okay, I'll leave as soon as possible."
Su Jin suddenly remembered her useless bodyguard who had disappeared since yesterday. She found his phone number and called to fire him.
Upon hearing that he was to be fired, the person on the other end of the phone immediately explained, "I've been standing guard outside the door, secretly protecting your safety. Because I've calculated that covert protection is more efficient."
"In secret, you think you're some kind of ancient imperial guard, secretly protecting me. So tell me, where were you hiding yesterday to secretly protect me?"
The bodyguard succinctly replied: "In the shadows."
"What?? Haha, goodbye. I'll have Assistant Wang settle your salary later. You can try other positions; the most important thing is to find one that suits you."
Su Jin gave the other party no further chance to explain, and after hanging up the phone, her smile vanished.
She considered herself a good boss, but even the best boss can't tolerate an employee who is not good enough for the job.
She wanted a bodyguard, not a bodyguard.
"Then I'll head back to City A first. You guys can continue your vacation here." Su Jin was in a hurry to go back, partly for her own safety, and partly because Assistant Wang had made some progress in getting the shares back, and she needed to go back to see how to proceed.
Zheng Lin took out an ID card from his pants pocket and showed it to Su Jin while holding it between his fingers.
The woman in the photo had elegant and beautiful features; it was Su Jin herself! Su Jin reached out to grab her ID card back, but Zheng Lin deftly twisted his wrist, stuffed the ID card into the inner pocket of his casual jacket, and zipped it up.
Zheng Lin looked at her calmly.
"Why do you have my ID card?" Su Jin clenched her fist. "Give it back to me right now."
Without an ID card, how can she go back?
Yesterday, after showing her ID card to the police, she put it back in her pocket.
She found out that Zheng Lin must have sneaked into her room and taken her ID card after she fell asleep, using it to control her. It was truly despicable!
Zheng Lin: "I will protect your safety here. You said you came to accompany me on vacation, how can I let you go back alone early?"
Do you know how despicable you are right now?
“I know I’m a bit shameless, but it doesn’t matter. As long as I achieve my goal, that’s good enough.” Zheng Lin picked up his coffee and took a sip. “I don’t care about anything else. We’ve known each other for twelve years. You know very well what kind of person I am.”
Su Jin didn't want to see him anymore, so she turned to leave, only to hear the man's cold voice behind her: "Where are you going?"
"Taking a walk," Su Jin said without turning her head.
As soon as she stepped outside, a bodyguard wearing sunglasses came into view of her. Su Jin turned and walked away, with the bodyguard following closely behind her.
“You’ve already been fired, don’t follow me. Go over there and have some fun.” Su Jin casually pointed to a spot.
Bodyguard: "I really need this job."
Su Jin didn't want to talk to him.
He Ru, returning from the beach party, spotted Su Jin with a man. Upon closer inspection, she realized it was the same man wearing sunglasses from yesterday.
It turns out that this was all a play directed and acted by Su Jin herself.
Was Zheng Lin's attitude towards her so awful yesterday?
He Ru went up and slapped Su Jin.
Su Jin was stunned by the slap. What happened?
Su Jin covered her face and looked at the person who slapped her in confusion.
He Ru looked furious, as if she had a huge rage, and cursed at her, "You bitch!"
Su Jin: "......"
If this were before, she would have slapped him back.
But now, she doesn't want to make enemies directly. It would be too obvious to retaliate directly, so she'd rather settle things privately.
Su Jin clenched her fist, resisting the urge to retaliate, and said gently, "It's fine if you hit me, I just want to know why I was slapped?"
"You're ridiculous! Look at the people around you! Don't you know what you've done?"
He Ru pointed at Su Jin and said loudly, "You sent him here yesterday to tell me that Brother Zheng Lin was with you, just to make me a laughing stock. It was you who instigated Brother Zheng Lin to want to cancel the wedding!"
Su Jin turned to look at the bodyguard behind her: "You went to see her yesterday?"
"Stop pretending, Su Jin!" He Ru stepped closer, interrupting Su Jin's conversation with the bodyguard: "He's your man, and you're the one who tells him what to do."
“He’s a grown man, how could I possibly control his behavior? Besides, I’ve already fired him.”
Su Jin's eyes sharpened. "Do you think it's possible that he just felt sorry for you, as Young Master Zheng's fiancée, being deceived, and kindly told you? What benefit would I get from sending him to expose Young Master Zheng's whereabouts to you?"
He Ru: "Your people will cooperate with whatever you say to them."
"If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do." Just as Su Jin finished speaking, He Ru's hand was about to strike again, but Su Jin firmly grabbed it.
Su Jin gripped He Ru's wrist tightly and struggled with her for a few seconds.
“One slap is enough. I don’t know what you hate, but there’s one thing you must understand clearly: who is Zheng Lin’s legal wife right now?” Su Jin sneered, a smile playing on her lips. “It’s me. Did he tell you he was already divorced, Miss He? Please don’t be so rude.”
