Three days later.
Shen Jinmo came downstairs, his handsome chin covered with stubble, and his eyes were dark and swollen, indicating that he hadn't slept well for the past few days.
Shen's mother, Jiang Jingyu, came to visit him personally: "Hasn't Lu Zhiwei's remains been found yet?"
"Yeah, we only found a cell phone. He shouldn't be dead," Shen Jingmo replied.
Lu Zhiwei is a timid and fearful woman, and she has always been cautious and timid in the Shen family.
She shouldn't have the courage to die.
"Just stop looking. Maybe she's just playing hide-and-seek to win you back. It's all just women's tricks. She was a little beggar who saved your life and now she's living the high life in our Shen family. It's good that she's gone. Three years and she hasn't even had a baby. And you've been going home every day trying to have a child with her. Find someone else. I have a lot of photos of socialites. Why don't you take a look now?"
Jiang Jingyu had always been dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law, Lu Zhiwei. If it weren't for the fact that Lu Zhiwei had saved her son's life, she wouldn't have tolerated it for three years and would have kicked this disreputable woman out long ago.
"Mom, I'm going to work." Shen Jinmo didn't want to listen to her mother's nagging, so she didn't even eat breakfast and drove straight to the company.
The Shen Group is located in the most prosperous commercial center of Yunzhou, rising majestically among the towering skyscrapers.
Shen Jinmo's business empire has gained an unshakeable position in Yunzhou over the past decade, rivaling the Lu Group.
Shen Jinmo had just arrived at the company.
A large crowd gathered downstairs at the building, and police cars were dispatched to cordon off the area.
Assistant Lin Jing, looking flustered, stopped him: "President Chen, don't go over there. Director Zhang from the Public Relations Department is handling it. If you go over there, I'm afraid you'll feel uncomfortable seeing it."
Shen Jinmo frowned: "What happened?"
"Qin Hai, the chief designer of the jewelry design department, jumped off a building."
Jump off a building.
This word unveiled a long-buried scar that Shen Jinmo had kept buried deep in his heart for many years.
"It's said that he was heartbroken. He proposed to his girlfriend with a ring he designed himself, only to discover that she had been cheating on him and had even had a child with another man. Unable to bear the blow, he jumped from the building next door. But at least he had some conscience, knowing to choose the building next door to jump, which is worthy of the years of cultivation that Shen's Group has given him," Lin Jing recounted the whole incident.
Shen Jinmo's eyes were deep as he touched the wedding ring that Lu Zhiwei had taken off in his pocket.
He remembered that the wedding ring was designed by the same designer, Qin Hai.
Thinking about it, it really is quite unlucky.
"Take this ring and get rid of it." Shen Jingmo took the ring out of his hand and handed it to Lin Jing.
Lin Jing took the hot 10-carat top-grade diamond ring: "President Shen, this is the young mistress's ring, are you sure you want to throw it away?"
"I threw her away, so why would I throw away a ring?" Shen Jinmo was in a bad mood and spoke sharply.
Lu Zhiwei, who was holding a sketchbook, was standing behind Shen Jinmo at some point.
I heard his heartless and cruel words with my own ears.
Lin Jingyi turned around and saw Lu Zhiwei. He turned pale with fright, as if he had been caught red-handed doing something wrong.
"Mr. Shen, the young mistress is behind us."
Lin Jing's words made Shen Jinmo turn his head immediately.
After three days apart, Lu Zhiwei seemed to have undergone a complete transformation.
She cut off her long, black hair that reached her waist, and tucked her short hair behind her ears. Her face was unadorned, and her lips were naturally red.
She was wearing a crisp black business suit, revealing a pair of straight, long, white legs.
She was no longer the alluring, seductive woman who always tried to please him in her long dresses.
He walked quickly to her.
Shen Jinmo grabbed her slender wrist and pulled her into his Maybach.
"Where have you been these past few days?" the man in the back seat asked him, frowning.
"I'm home," Lu Zhiwei said calmly.
"Bullshit!" He had been staying at home for the past three days and hadn't seen her come back. He had people keeping an eye on the other villas and luxury apartments that the Shen family had bought in Yunzhou.
Even major hotels do not have her check-in information.
“I have more than one home in Yunzhou,” Lu Zhiwei said with a smile.
She was telling the truth, but she successfully angered Shen Jinmo.
His large hand gripped her waist, pressing her against the soft back seat. His tall frame locked Lu Zhiwei in place, preventing her from escaping.
“Lu Zhiwei, I know you’re deliberately trying to provoke me, but I won’t hold it against you. You came here today specifically for me, right? Afraid that the sight of this place might trigger my painful memories and cause me to have a relapse?”
She always knew that her father's suicide before his eyes was a deep wound in his heart. Whenever he was plagued by nightmares, she would snuggle into his arms and hug him tightly, as obedient as a kitten.
Lu Zhiwei was amused by this arrogant man: "Sorry, really not."
"Don't be stubborn. If it's true, then it is. I won't make fun of you." Shen Jinmo stared at her rosy lips, a familiar heat rising within him, especially since his hand was gripping her slender waist.
This is Lu Zhiwei's most lethal weapon in bed to subdue him.
When the feeling strikes, Shen Jinmo never restrains his impulses.
He grabbed her chin and was about to kiss her.
A pencil sharpener was pressed against the man's abdomen, the cold touch forcing Shen Jinmo to lower his head.
Seeing the gleaming knife, Shen Jinmo's anger surged. He grabbed her wrist, bit his lip, and said, "What, are you trying to murder your husband?"
Lu Zhiwei sneered, "I won't kill you, but I can cut off your kidneys and sell them."
Her stunningly beautiful face was now covered with a layer of frost.
Shen Jinmo felt increasingly unfamiliar with Lu Zhiwei in front of him.
Just a few days ago, she was the gentle and obedient Mrs. Shen who would wear sexy and beautiful dresses for him, learn to cook and make delicious pastries for him every day, keep the house clean and tidy, and control her temper.
