Chapter 864 Moving Again
No matter how hard Bo Jinyan thought about it, he couldn't figure it out.
“I’m just speculating.” Sang Ruo was merely speculating, suggesting a possibility: “After all, we’ve just arrived in the United States, and only the senior management of Lu’s Bank knows our whereabouts. Ordinary people simply cannot know where we are.”
"Don't forget, although Xu Chen married into the Lu family, his father, Xu Yi, is also a senior executive at Lu's Bank. He can exercise his father's shareholder rights on his behalf."
After all, board members are fixed, unlike shareholders who have much greater mobility.
Bo Jinyan thought her speculation was very likely: "Xiao Ruo, what you said makes sense, but we have no evidence. How can we accuse someone of harming us without any proof?"
"Let Nan Chu handle this matter. We need to move quickly; we can't stay here anymore."
Right now, nothing is more urgent than moving.
What could be more important than the safety of one's life?
"Move? Where are we moving to?"
Bo Jinyan: "I don't only own this one house in New York. I have a penthouse in Central Park, Manhattan, in the heart of Manhattan. Many rich people live there. I will find someone to sell this one."
After all, no one would dare to live in a house that has been shot.
This was for Xiao Ruo's safety; he couldn't take any risks.
As for who sent that group of people, that's for Nan Chu to handle.
Trust her, she'll definitely be able to give him a definite answer.
...
Lu's Bank, President's Office.
"John, today I asked you to arrange for someone to protect the safety of the project manager of our payment settlement system development project. Who did you tell?" Lu Nanchu asked in fluent English.
Although John is white, he is highly educated and capable. He is Lu Jinan's right-hand man, and Lu Nanchu's daily work is inseparable from his help and support.
John asked in confusion, "Besides your husband, Young Master Xu, only the former bank manager and Chairman Xu know about this."
The former bank president naturally refers to Lu Jinan, since Lu Nanchu inherited his position, and Lu Jinan, as the former bank president, naturally had to step down from his post.
Otherwise, where would Lu Nanchu's space to survive be?
As for Chairman Xu, it is well known that she recently married Xu Chen, the second son of the Xu family. However, since Xu Chen is a son-in-law, he is not qualified to join the board of directors. Therefore, Chairman Xu naturally refers to Xu Yi.
"You mean, Xu Chen also knows about our bank's new project?" Lu Nanchu was surprised that he found out so quickly. "How did he find out? Didn't I tell him to keep it from him?"
How exactly do they do things?
Despite her repeated warnings and instructions, Xu Chen still found out.
John's eyes showed a troubled expression: "President, it's not that I don't want to hide it, but I have already hidden it on my end. But you know those people on the board of directors, some of them have a very good relationship with Chairman Xu. We can't shut them up and stop them from talking. Word will spread from one to ten, and naturally a lot of rumors will leak out."
It's not that they don't want to hide it, but that they simply can't.
If they could hide it, they would have done it long ago.
Why wait until today?
"Where's Xu Chen?" Lu Nanchu asked impatiently. "Did he go back to New York too? Have you seen him these past few days?"
John shook his head: "I haven't met him, but I did hear Chairman Xu mention him. He said that Chairman Xu returned to New York long before you went back to the United States. As for the specifics, you should ask him yourself. We don't know either."
He had only overheard the board members mentioning it during breaks in their board meetings.
The more Lu Nanchu listened, the more uneasy she felt.
Xu Chen had already returned to the United States? She only returned to New York three days before Bo Jinyan and Sang Ruo came to the United States.
Why did Xu Chen return to New York a week early?
Could it be...?
Was the shooting of my cousin and his wife carried out by someone ordered by Xu Chen?
Thinking of this, Lu Nanchu's eyes turned cold. She waved John out and waited until he had completely disappeared from the office before she dialed Xu Chen's number.
Xu Chen answered immediately: "Hello."
"Xu Chen, did you go back to America?" Lu Nanchu's tone was extremely serious.
Xu Chen looked puzzled but didn't deny it: "How did you know?"
He didn't tell anyone about his return to the United States because his father had instructed him not to let any word of their early return leak out, so he didn't reveal a single detail.
How did Nan Chu find out?
Seeing that he didn't deny it, Lu Nanchu chuckled and said, "It seems that your return to New York is true..."
"Then let me ask you again, was the shooting of my cousin and his wife orchestrated by you? Did you want to kill my cousin's wife?!"
When the last word was uttered, her explanation sounded more like a statement than a question.
Xu Chen listened with a half-smile: "Just because they encountered a shooting, they suspect I did it?"
"Lu Nanchu, don't forget, I am your husband! Aren't you being a little too overprotective of your cousin and his wife?"
Even if you have a very good relationship, it's fine to just visit each other more often.
Now that something has happened to them, the first person she suspects isn't anyone else, but her husband!
She cared about her cousin and his wife far more than her husband!
How could he not be angry!
"Stop trying to change the subject. Tell me the truth." Lu Nanchu was very unhappy with his attempt to divert attention: "Did you have someone do the shooting of my cousin and his wife?"
Her tone was extremely sharp, as if an interrogator were questioning a prisoner, devoid of any emotion.
Xu Chen was amused by her sharp tone: "What if I said no? Would you believe me?"
Just because he returned to New York earlier than her, does he deserve to be questioned like this by her?
Is this still the Lu Nanchu he loved back then?
Why does he feel absolutely no emotion in her tone of voice, unlike before?
even……
There's not even a shred of trust!
I believe you.
Lu Nanchu's words made Xu Chen's eyes light up.
But his joy lasted only a few seconds before her next words froze him in place.
"You may not have done the shooting, but it must have been your father."
Lu Nanchu's suspicions were not without reason.
Xu Chen and Xu Yi suffered a great loss in the marriage between the Lu and Xu families because of Bo Jinyan and Sang Ruo. How could he let them off easily?
She was too careless, thinking that hiding the project manager's information would protect them.
In reality, Xu Yi's influence within the board of directors was far deeper than she had imagined.
"You doubt my father?" Her distrust angered Xu Chen. "Lu Nanchu! I'm warning you, don't go too far with your words!"
