After the scumbag cheated on me, I turned around and married the heir to a wealthy family.
Chapter 141: Zhu Yuan was arrested?
Zhu Jin frowned, feeling that this matter was particularly troublesome.
She couldn't figure out who Zhu Yuan was from?
And Huo Anan wanted to plot how he dared to do something to Shen Muyan.
Although the Shen family is not as powerful as the Huo family, they cannot be framed at will.
But if Huo Anan hadn't taken action, what would have happened to that servant.
These few things are linked together, hiding overlapping doubts, making people confused for a while.
Zhu Jin only felt the back of his hand warm, and his hand was squeezed, and the palm of his hand was squeezed twice.
"Don't worry. I will have this matter investigated as soon as possible." Huo Jingcheng comforted.
That's all it can do now, Zhu Jin nodded.
When they went downstairs, they happened to meet Mrs. Jian and Mrs. Song. They took Zhu Jin into their circle of ladies and helped introduce many people to Zhu Jin.
In front of everyone, the two of them praised Zhu Jin without hesitation and showed the necklaces around their necks to the ladies.
After exchanging pleasantries, Zhu Jin was repeatedly asked by several ladies to designate his free time, hoping that Zhu Jin could help jump in the queue.
Zhu Jin circled around, and although no one agreed, he sweetly coaxed several old ladies to smile, and they didn't feel the slightest bit unhappy about being rejected.
After the banquet was over, Zhu Jin's vx was filled with the contact information of a bunch of ladies from aristocratic families.
For the first time, she was so tired that she lay directly on the back seat of the car.
"I thought Mrs. Song was a reserved person, but I didn't expect that she has as many friends as Mrs. Jian."
"I even suspect that the two of them helped me introduce all the ladies in Beijing today."
Huo Jingcheng said calmly, "The Song family was a wealthy family that could rival the Ji family at first. Moreover, Mrs. Song had been the mistress of the Ji family for a long time, so she only had more connections."
Zhu Jin nodded.
"It's a good thing for you to be friends with these two old ladies." Huo Jingcheng looked through the documents in his hand.
Zhu Jin naturally understood.
"I know." Zhu Jin leaned on Huo Jingcheng's shoulder, looking through the additional circles of friends on his phone, filled with emotion.
Just then, her phone vibrated, and she looked down and saw a call from Zhu Chen.
Zhu Jin muted his phone, turned off the screen, and ignored it.
But the screen that frequently lit up due to phone calls proved that Zhu Chen didn't think so.
"Take it." Huo Jingcheng said.
Zhu Jin frowned and pressed the connect button.
"Come here right now."
The commanding tone sounded particularly unpleasant.
Zhu Jin directly cut off the call.
Meeting Huo Jingcheng's look, Zhu Jin said calmly, "I'll listen when he knows how to speak properly."
Huo Jingcheng raised his eyebrows but said nothing.
The call came again.
After the call was connected, Zhu Jin reminded the other party before he spoke, "If you don't know how to speak well, then there's no need to speak."
All that was left on the other end was a heavy, annoyed gasp.
Zhu Jin's face didn't change at all. She was no longer the little girl who longed for her father's love.
"Your sister has been detained." Zhu Chen's tone was still unkind, but he no longer had the arrogant commanding tone. "You tell the second master that this matter has nothing to do with your sister. Let her go."
Zhu Jin was startled.
Zhu Yuan was arrested?
She subconsciously looked at Huo Jingcheng, her eyes full of questions.
The man raised his finger at her and said, "Give me the phone."
Zhu Jin handed over the phone.
"Zhu Jin, you can't write two words of blessing in one stroke. Don't forget what your last name is."
"Your sister didn't mean it either."
Huo Jingcheng's tone was calm, "If she wants to come out, she should explain the matter clearly."
Zhu Chen, who had an obvious taste for preaching, visibly choked up, and the voice on the other end of the phone became more submissive.
"This……"
"She just passed by accidentally and didn't know anything. Second Master, please see if you can let her go for Jin Jin's sake."
"If you can't say it, then wait until she can say it."
Huo Jingcheng hung up the phone calmly.
This time, the phone didn't ring again.
Zhu Jin took the phone.
She wanted to ask if this matter had anything to do with Zhu Yuan, she wanted to ask who framed Shen Muyan, and how much it had to do with Huo An'an.
But after hesitating for a moment, she didn't ask anything.
Instead, after Zhu Jin finished washing up, Huo Jingcheng took the initiative to bring up the investigation results of this matter.
"Come here." Huo Jingcheng waved to people.
Zhu Jin wiped his wet hair and walked towards the person, "Huh?"
Huo Jingcheng took the towel from her hand and helped wipe her wet hair, "The results of the investigation are out."
"Ah?" Zhu Jin couldn't think straight, "Are you talking about Shen Muyan being drugged?"
"The whole thing."
Huo Jingcheng looked at the person who was sitting meekly in front of him.
The long black and shiny hair hangs down naturally. Huo Jingcheng gently presses it with a towel to absorb the moisture, and then wipes the ends of the hair.
The man who grew up being held in the palm of his hand has never done such a job of serving others.
This was his first time serving someone.
"The medicine is from a branch of the Shen family, and it should be related to Ji Wan Ning and Huo An'an, but in any case he does not plan to reveal the person behind it, but plans to admit it himself."
Zhu Jin frowned.
"What about Zhu Yuan? What does this matter have to do with her."
"She happened to see the whole process of the side branch taking the medicine and Shen Muyan drinking the glass of wine." Huo Jingcheng said.
Zhu Jin understood instantly, "Does she want to get the last advantage? See if she can become the Shen family's wife through this matter?"
"Ah."
No wonder Zhu Yuan came over so quickly.
No wonder she would speak for him at that time.
I'm afraid, on the one hand, she didn't want to be involved in the drugging thing, and on the other hand, she didn't want Shen Muyan to have anything to do with her.
Zhu Jin twitched his lips.
No matter what the reason was, she would like to thank the other party for his help at that time.
If it weren't for the other party, I might not be able to hold on until Huo Jingcheng comes.
"Don't worry." Huo Jingcheng picked up the hair dryer and adjusted it to warm air. His fingers were like a comb, gently helping to arrange and dry the hair.
Huo Jingcheng said, "I will continue to investigate. If it is really them, I will not let any of them go."
Zhu Jin's head was a little dizzy from the warm wind.
She closed her eyes and allowed herself to be taken care of, "Yeah."
"Ji Wanning's methods are very clever, you have to be careful." Huo Jingcheng warned, "If there are any strange orders in the past few days, try not to accept them if you can."
Zhu Jin said vaguely, "You mean she will embarrass me in the name of placing an order?"
"Ah."
Zhu Jin nodded drowsily, "I understand."
While Huo Jingcheng was helping to dry her hair, Zhu Jin tilted her head and leaned on the man's lap. She was drowsy and her eyelids were heavy, and she didn't notice when she fell asleep.
Zhu Jin, who was asleep, naturally didn't see Huo Jingcheng bend down, so he got up and picked her up and gently placed her on the bed.
The man looked at her tenderly and placed a soft kiss on her forehead.
The bright moonlight spread over the two of them.
