Substitute groom: The president's husband is a bit draggy

Jirou picks up her mobile phone and rushes to the place mentioned in the message.

Since they chatted last time, Ji Zhenxiong seldom took the initiative to contact her. Except for helping with the investigation and doing some things, there was no movement. He didn't expect that he would take the initiative to ask him out this time.

The destination is a French restaurant. After Jirou told the front desk her name, someone led her to a private room.

Pushing open the door of the private room, he saw Ji Zhenxiong sitting on his seat with a sad face, and various dishes were placed on the table.

After the door was closed, Ji Rou walked over slowly, with a smile in her tone, "Let me think about the last time Dad asked me out for dinner, it was about half a year ago." She put the bag in the On the side, he asked, "Is there any news from Ji Yan?"

Ji Zhenxiong frowned in displeasure, and slammed the table, "Is that how you talk to me? Don't forget that no matter what happens, I'm your father, and you thought you got something and then stood up in front of me?"

For his sudden temper, Ji Rou was not angry, but began to coax him patiently.

"Dad, I have never crossed in front of you. If you want to say cross, it should be Ji Yan. When has she respected you in front of you? Our family provides her with food and clothes, but she is fine and jumps on the branch If you turn into a phoenix, you will turn your face and deny anyone."

Ji Rou sighed regretfully, and then sprinkled a handful of salt on his wound, "If it wasn't for Dad, if it wasn't for our Ji family, it would be impossible for her as a little Ji Yan to climb up to the existence of Lu Tingshen anyway. Tsk, poor dad, you have done so much for her without knowing it, even the so-called father-in-law has never been called."

She kept fanning the flames, seeing that Ji Zhenxiong was about to get angry, so she added another sentence.

"Dad, are you willing?"

Ji Zhenxiong didn't know whether he really thought so or was brought in by Ji Rou, but he really followed her way of thinking.

Yes, are you willing?

Because of his status, it is inconvenient for him to do more to take care of that woman's child, so everything he does is done in secret for fear of being known.

But in the end it ended up like this, why?
"What's the use of you saying that?"

Jirou picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of tender meat from the fish maw, put it in his bowl, and said, "Dad, I've finished reading all the things you put in the study. I know better than anyone that you don't really like Ji Yan , it’s just because she is that woman’s child that she wants to give good compensation to Ji Yan. But you didn’t do anything wrong, why would you sacrifice your family, children and everything for a promise?”

While talking, out of the corner of her eye, she kept looking at the black file bag in Ji Zhenxiong's hand, wanting to skip this topic and do Ji Yan.

"Okay, this is a matter between you, don't involve her!" Ji Zhenxiong had a suspicious look at first, but when he heard Ji Rou mention that woman, he recovered his clarity.

There was a flash of light in Ji Rou's eyes, and she picked up a tissue and wiped her hands, "If you don't like to hear it, then I won't say it, but if you don't say it, it doesn't mean it hasn't happened. Dad, Yu has a long way to go. You still have to figure out whether the people who will take care of your pension and accompany you through your life will be me and Mom, or Ji Yan."

After she threatened, she put on a smiling face and reached out to get the documents on the table, but Ji Zhenxiong didn't stop her.

When she opened the folder to read it, Ji Zhenxiong said, "Ji Yan has been investigating her mother's affairs for a long time, and she has successfully found a few classmates from that year and asked them about many things. One of them is Lin Xiao. "

Ji Rou loosened her hand, and the document fell like snowflakes. She couldn't believe her ears, and asked, "What did you say? Is it the Lin Xiao I imagined?"

"The situation is a bit different, but the person who told Ji Yan was indeed the Lin Xiao you found. Her identity is actually not simple. You'd better not give her any chance to tell Ji Yan a bigger secret .”

Ji Zhenxiong's expression was gloomy when he heard Lin Xiao, obviously dissatisfied with what she said to Ji Yan but unable to do anything.

Hearing this, she was not interested in reading any further, so she closed the file and put it aside.

"I think I know what to do."

Ji Zhenxiong glanced at the things on the table, he didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly said, "Ji Yan will help you check the content at most, but I won't help you with anything other than that. In addition, Lu Tingshen The time to return home has been shortened because of Ji Yan's accident, so hurry up and use these few days."

In any case, it is impossible for him to break his promise to that person, as long as he didn't personally kill Ji Yan, that promise is still valid.

Ji Rou watched his back leave, and then looked back.

"It seems that he doesn't like Ji Yan that much, what he really likes is that woman."

She shook her head ironically and smiled, and when she got up to leave, she saw a piece of fish lying quietly in his bowl, unmoved from beginning to end.

Her movements froze for a moment, but she immediately returned to normal and left the restaurant.

……

When Lu Tingshen received the text message from Bai Yin, his heart stopped for a moment. Just listening to what he said, he could imagine how bad the scene was.

He contacted acquaintances in country M to come out to meet, and tried to find out a lot of information about Si Er, but there was no progress until he met someone.

"I heard that you are investigating Sier's affairs, do you want to talk?"

A tall and handsome man sat down opposite him, and it was not hard to hear his arrogance in his tone.

Just this look...

Lu Ting looked out of the window deeply, and said in a calm tone, "I don't know what is the relationship between you and Si'er? If I guessed correctly, you are the young master of the Si's consortium. What is the reason for you to find me?"

The man pursed his lips, and when he mentioned Si Er's face looked like he had eaten shit, but he still held on, "As expected of a member of the Lu family, but I can't answer your questions, I know too much about some things, right You are no good. After all, you are also a member of the Lu family, if the Lu family finds out that your younger generation disappeared after visiting country M, then I will be more responsible."

The implication is to advise Lu Tingshen not to ask too many questions, otherwise he may not be able to leave country M and die in a foreign land.

This arrogant posture is very similar to the current Si family consortium, but Lu Tingshen just glanced at him and said coldly, "You can try."

The man paused, and touched his nose in embarrassment, "Forget it, it's meaningless to keep talking about this. I can tell you everything about Sier, as long as you want to know. I can even help you avoid Sier The pursuit of those people in Er, let you leave smoothly."

What he said is indeed very tempting, especially when nothing can be found at the moment and Sier's people have been tracking him down.

The man seemed to be sure that Lu Tingshen would agree, and no one would let go of the opportunity at his fingertips.

At this time, a couple of awkward couples walked by outside the window. Although the two were holding hands, the atmosphere was not right, and they turned their heads away from each other.

Lu Tingshen thought of Ji Yan after only one glance, and looked away, his tone was indifferent and alienated, "I have a wife."

The man was stunned immediately, why did the topic jump up so suddenly?
"what?"

A look of disgust flashed in Lu Ting's deep eyes, and he said, "It's impossible for you to help me without conditions, and I'm not alone, so I can't stay in country M all the time."

This was already a very straightforward rejection, but the man still persisted in asking.

"So? You, Lu Tingshen, are the ones who want to achieve great things. If you talk about a wife, you are not afraid that she will ruin you in the future? We trade with each other, and I can even help your company develop the market in country M, so that you can compete with others. Expand the business territory one step faster. Do you take advantage of such an attractive price?"

"My words are very clear, please go back."

Despite how attractive his conditions were, Lu Tingshen remained unmoved.

Now he just wants to go back to the country to deal with Ji Yan's affairs, every time he leaves Hua country, something will happen, it seems that he has to be tied to him before he comes out next time.

Not knowing what Lu Tingshen was thinking at all, his manly face turned red, and he flung his sleeves away.

……

Suddenly, the old lady came to Lu's house.

Although Lu's mother and others didn't know how to treat her because of what happened before, the servants at home didn't know anything, so they treated her well.

When Ji Yan arrived home, the old lady had already stayed at Lu's house for almost an afternoon.

She glanced at the people in the living room in surprise, suppressed her emotions and walked over, "Why are you here, please say hello to me before you come next time."

The old lady sighed helplessly and nodded, "I won't bother you without your permission next time, but this time is very important."

The old man's face is full of seriousness, and he hasn't moved his eyes away from Ji Yan since he saw Ji Yan coming in, as if he won't have a chance if he doesn't take a few more glances.

"I know you may not believe what grandma says, but grandma assures you that this is the last time."

Ji Yan was a little bitter because of the earnestness and pleading in her eyes, he forced himself to look away at the servant next to him, and ordered, "Go and get a light blue box from the closet in my room, and return it to me. There is a packaged picture scroll next to the dressing table."

The old lady opened her eyes wide after hearing her words, it turned out that...

Ji Yan took a deep breath after the people were dismissed, "You can do it, just tell me."

She nodded, "I heard that something happened to you at the dinner party, so I rushed over here immediately. After that, you must be careful. It's best not to act outside alone before Lu Tingshen comes back, otherwise accidents will easily happen! "

Ji Yan didn't speak, but just listened patiently.

"Ji Rou came to the apartment to look for me. What she said was very interesting. Be careful."

After she told me, Ji Yan nodded in understanding, with a pale face and no emotion in her tone, "Did Ji Rou come to you to lie to me again? I didn't hide it, I suspected it long ago. Jirou did the snake thing. "

She took a few steps back to keep a safe distance from the old lady, and no longer believed anything the latter said.
