"Mr. Jiang's wedding is the day after tomorrow~"

In the evening, when Zhang Lingyue went to the hospital to find Zhu Xin as usual to sign the relevant cooperation and sales documents of Zhu's industry in recent times, Zhu Xin mentioned something as if chatting while signing the contract.

"wedding?!"

As expected, Zhang Lingyue stopped organizing the documents and looked at Zhu Xin in surprise.

Ever since Jiang Kaichen handed over all the affairs of the Zhu family to her, the Zhu family's complicated family business had made her, who was deeply immersed in power, feel as if she was the mistress of the Zhu family for a while.

After assigning her a clear goal, Jiang Kaichen seemed to trust her very much and let her go completely, but strangely enough, he never gave her a formal identity.

Even though she was in charge of and operated all of the Zhu family's businesses, she still had to find the abandoned daughter of the Zhu family to sign any legally binding document.

Although he arranged someone to restrain her, Jiang Kaichen had always arranged for this girl to work as a 24-hour nurse for his grandfather in the hospital. He never gave this girl any chance to inquire about the family property, let alone the opportunity to fight with him.

But to say that he completely treated the girl as a puppet, he expressly forbade himself to use his private seal, and all documents had to be brought to Zhu Xin for her to review and sign in person.

"Tang Wenwan?"

Zhang Lingyue put down the documents she was sorting, frowned and asked.

They were going to get married eventually. Ever since she saw Jiang Kaichen with the girl from the Tang family, she knew that the cinnabar in her heart would turn into ashes.

"Well, Wen Wan seems to be pregnant."

Zhu Xin answered as he signed the contracts piled in front of him one by one.

During this period of time, I have been working as a nurse in the hospital 24 hours a day. It seems that I haven't had the energy to think about the jealousy deeply buried in my heart towards this childhood friend for a long time.

People are probably like this. When you walk side by side with someone, everything can be referenced and compared.

And when one day, you suddenly realize that you two are in two completely different worlds, all those struggles become meaningless and ridiculous.

"pregnant?!"

Zhang Lingyue tried her best to keep calm, but she couldn't help but raise her voice after hearing the news.

After all, in many sleepless nights, she had clearly imagined what the child of hers and Jiang Kaichen would be like.

"Zhang Xincheng is dead!"

After meeting Zhu Xin's somewhat surprised look, she quickly put away the panic on her face and changed the subject awkwardly.

"Xincheng is dead?!"

Zhu Xin was really shocked this time. She raised her head from the document, pen still in her hand, and looked at Zhang Lingyue with horror on her face.

"Well, he's never coming back~"

If there was any remaining softness in his heart towards the abandoned daughter of the Zhu family, it was probably because she had once been a classmate of his only younger brother, who was still somewhat of a private friend.

"How did he die?!"

Zhu Xin felt her scalp tighten, because she knew that Zhang Xincheng was thrown to northern Myanmar by Jiang Kaichen because of Tang Wenwan's matter.

But in the past two years, seeing that Zhang Lingyue had managed the Zhu family's business in an orderly manner, I always thought that in a few years, that boy would come back for his sister's sake.

It was not until she met Zhang Lingyue's gloomy face that she realized that some accounts cannot be settled together.

"I thought he would be back in two years."

Zhu Xin murmured, trying hard to hold back his sobs and with great fear.

Because the previous conspiracy against Tang Wenwan was a joint effort between her and Zhang Xincheng, she didn't dare to inquire about this person in the past two years, for fear that there would be any connection, which would make it even more difficult for her to escape the blame.

"Capital punishment, clay sculpture, sinking into the sea, not even a grave!"

One could even hear the sound of clenching his back teeth. There was no one to talk to about this grief. Zhang Lingyue, who was almost suffocating, spoke in a deep voice as if venting her anger.

pat~

The pen in his hand fell onto the document.

"The clay sculpture sinks into the sea?!"

Zhu Xin had never heard of such a horrific way of death, and his face turned pale with fright.

"Will you and the old man go to the wedding the day after tomorrow?"

Zhang Lingyue raised her head, forced back the tears that were about to come out, took a deep breath, and asked in a deep voice.

She knew that this was enough. Zhu Xin could not let go of her fear of Jiang Kaichen. The farther she stayed away from that plague god, the more valuable she would be as a middleman.

What was not made clear was that the disappointing younger brother eventually died because of his obsession with Tang Wenwan.

The news of death was like a poison needle. On the night she received the news, she plucked the blood-red cinnabar on her heart. As a hollow-hearted person, she would never have to talk about love again!

Unable to answer any questions, his body began to tremble, Zhu Xin's mind began to become distracted, and his mind was filled with the image of Zhang Xincheng's body being drowned.

"Zhu Xin, are you okay? You've been dawdling on signing a document for so long!"

This time, Old Master Zhu's usual anxiety brought the lost man back to life.

"I have something for you to do for me."

Old Master Zhu stood at the door of the studio that Zhang Lingyue had specially arranged next to his ward for the convenience of daily signing.

The old man was obviously still immersed in the excitement of the upcoming wedding, and he didn't notice the different expressions of the girls inside, and he greeted them with a smug look on his face.

"You two, go to the bank vault tomorrow morning and take out the Nine Phoenix Flower Hairpin Crown and send it to the Tang family. Say it's a gift from our Zhu family to the new daughter-in-law."

The old man knew that Zhang Lingyue had been managing the Zhu family under the instruction of Jiang Kaichen in the past two years. Although in his heart, outsiders were outsiders after all, he never gave this girl a good face.

But judging from the Zhu family's dormant yet stable development in the past two years, he knew in his heart that this girl was much more capable than his own first and third wives.

It is said that people feel refreshed when good things happen to them. All the ups and downs in his mood today were made perfect by Jiang Kaichen's final decision, so he was particularly happy now, and he also showed some extra kindness to the two girls in front of him.

"Nine-Phoenix Flower Hairpin Crown?!"

Zhang Lingyue and Zhu Xin looked at the old man in disbelief, and both of their little faces showed an expression as if they thought they were hallucinating.

Although all the Zhu family's businesses had been handed over for operation, including several treasures that had been occupied by other branches under various names, they were all handled by Jiang Kaichen when he was in Japan.

But only this Nine-Phoenix Flower Hairpin Crown is the treasure that the old man has been holding on to and refuses to let go. In order to get it, not only the family emblem seal is needed, but also the old man's private seal is required.

It is said that the Zhu family had a queen during the Song Dynasty, and this crown was passed down from that time. Over hundreds of years have passed, and it has never even been put on display, let alone leaked.

"Find a security company to follow them. When you send them over, tell Chen Yuan about it. Don't let me have any mishaps."

The old man looked at the two distracted little girls in front of him and suddenly became worried. He had only seen this family heirloom a few times and it had been locked in the vault. If something went wrong in their hands, it would be a waste of time.

"Forget it, forget it. I'll send it to the Tang family myself tomorrow. You ask Chen Yuan to arrange everything for me!"

Zhu Huaishan showed his usual impatience, waved his hand, turned around and went back to his ward, leaving Zhu Xin and Zhang Lingyue standing there in a daze as if they had seen a ghost.

Looking at the back that was familiar yet seemed like a different person, they had never felt so clearly that things were really going to change for the Zhu family!
