Chapter 58
Fu Nian waited for Lin Ran to take the elevator down before knocking on the door and entering the office.
Shen Jinghan had his back to the door, not handling official business or holding meetings. He just sat quietly in front of the French window, doing nothing.
Fu Nian reported in a low voice: "The Fifth Miss did not sign the gift contract."
"Yeah." The voice was a little hoarse and tired.
Shen Jinghan looked at the hustle and bustle and floating clouds outside the French window and said indifferently: "Fu Nian, am I particularly unkind?"
Fu Nian was silent. There were some things he couldn't say because Mr. Shen lived in a world where people ate each other. If he was weak, he would be devoured without leaving anything behind.
So he cannot have any weaknesses or soft spots.
He had no choice.
"She shouldn't be back at this time." Shen Jinghan closed his eyes, pinched his brows in pain, and spoke in a hoarse voice. She should return to Hong Kong later.
Fu Nian remained silent, closed the office door and walked out.

Lin Ran felt cold as she took the elevator downstairs. Looking at the elites coming and going in the building, she felt like she was living in another world, a virtual world with no exit.
She was trapped in a small garden called Chen Garden.
Since she entered Shen Garden at the age of twelve, she has never left.
She lowered her eyes and walked to the corner, then called Shen Zhuoyu: “Second brother, I want to ask you for a favor.”
Chen Zhuoyu was still living in the United States. When he received her call, he rubbed his eyes and said sleepily, "Yeah."
"Can you contact Song Zitong?"
"Who?" Shen Zhuoyu woke up with a start, a sharp light flashing in her peach blossom eyes, "What do you want to do with Song Zitong?"
Lin Ran bit her lip. She actually had no right to look for Song Zitong, but now only Song Zitong could help her.
"The Shen and Song families are going to get married. Song Zitong might be the mistress of Chen Garden in the future. My mother is afraid that we will be kicked out, so she wants to meet her." Lin Ran made up an excuse casually.
Shen Zhuoyu didn’t believe a word, and squinted his eyes thoughtfully and said, “Okay, I’ll go ask about Song Zitong’s whereabouts and contact you later.”
Shen Zhuoyu jumped out of bed and called He Yuanbai while washing up.
"Hezi, help me check Song Zitong's whereabouts, quickly."
He Yuanbai said speechlessly: “Chen Zhuoyu, I am a lawyer, not your private detective.”
He Yuanbai did not take over the family business. He studied law in college and later went to the UK for further studies. Now he is a famous gold medal lawyer.
Chen Zhuoyu Fengliu laughed wantonly: "I just returned to China, it doesn't matter if I don't have any connections, I can only rely on you, brother."
He Yuanbai was completely unmoved. Chen Zhuoyu was a liar. He knew all of his dark history. In the past, this guy relied on his sweet mouth to get involved in so many romantic affairs. Now he has turned over a new leaf.
Shen Zhuoyu just didn't want to use the power of the Shen family and use him as a gun.
Five minutes later, He Yuanbai reported Song Zitong's whereabouts to him: "I heard rumors that the Shen and Song families are planning a marriage. Are you trying to steal your eldest brother's woman and ruin the marriage?"
Shen Zhuoyu was able to do such a thing.
Shen Zhuoyu grabbed a big back hairstyle, revealing his handsome face with sharp edges, and said with a smile: "All right."
It is true that he wants to ruin the marriage, but the woman he wants to snatch away is not Song Zitong.
"Song Zitong's cousin is getting married tomorrow. The bride is her best friend. She'll be at the Xingyue Club tonight for a bachelorette party. I advise you to proceed with caution. Your eldest brother is no pushover.
Don't let me rescue you later."
It was really unlucky to have such a childhood friend like him. The Shen brothers were fighting to the death, and he was the one cleaning up the mess.
Chen Zhuoyu: "Brother, thank you. By the way, how is the investigation of the small fishing village going?"
