Zhu Yuan trembled her lips and turned her eyes to Gao Weilan for help.

Gao Weilan opened his eyes subconsciously, and then said helpfully, "Achen, Yuanyuan is young and may not understand it well. Why don't you let..."

This time, Zhu Chen did not continue to coax, but directly retorted and scolded, "Little? What little? How old is she? Doesn't she still understand whether this is right or wrong? She is just spoiled by you!"

The harsh reprimand made Gao Weilan freeze on the spot.

You know, Zhu Chen has never reprimanded her like this before.

"If you can't handle this matter well, you'd better come back to Zhu's family." Zhu Chen said, "It's useless for you to work as an errand boy for Huo's family. It's better to come back and inherit Zhu's enterprise as soon as possible."

After saying that, Zhu Chen turned around and left without looking at Zhu Yuan's reaction.

Only Zhu Yuan, who was biting her lower lip, and Gao Weilan, whose face was full of worry, were left in the box.

"It's better to forget about this matter. If your father doesn't help, it will be difficult for the news to get out." Gao Weilan advised.

Zhu Yuan grabbed Gao Weilan's arm and said, "Mom, you must help me with this matter."

Gao Weilan hesitated, "This..."

"Mom!" Zhu Yuan said, "I've already offended as many people as I can. If I don't do something, I might be fired. I want to stay in the Huo family, why can Zhu Jin do that? By working well in the Huo family, I can do the same!"

"But, after all, Zhu Jin has Huo Jingcheng's help behind her back."

Zhu Yuan bit her lower lip and said dissatisfied, "It would have been better if I had married Huo Jingcheng, then everything she belongs to now should clearly belong to me!"

Gao Weilan sighed helplessly, "Okay. It's useless for you to complain. How is the Young Master of the Shen family doing? Do you still have contact with him?"

"No...last time I added him, he failed."

Gao Weilan pinched his eyebrows.

Zhu Yuan shook Gao Weilan's arm and said coquettishly, "Mom, just help me once. I really can't help it. I want to stay in the Huo family, and didn't Zhu Jin just say that Mr. Huo is the actual person in power. If If I tell Mr. Huo about this, maybe he will reward me for it!"

"This matter is not a good thing for the Huo family. Are you sure Mr. Huo will be happy?" Gao Weilan asked.

Zhu Yuan was speechless when asked, but nodded quickly, "Of course. After all, this is corruption! Now he is taking action on the price of silver. What if he takes action on the price of gold or other gemstones next time!"

Gao Weilan thought about it and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"First investigate to find out what is the relationship between the person who approved the procurement plan this time and the other party, find the evidence, and finally bring all the evidence to Mr. Huo."

"How do you plan to deliver it to Mr. Huo?" Gao Weilan continued to ask.

After all, Mr. Huo has lived in seclusion over the years and rarely appears in public. It is not easy to hand the evidence to him.

"At worst, let Zhu Jin help me when the time comes." Zhu Yuan said.

Gao Weilan frowned and shook his head, disapproving of her method, "Zhu Jin won't help."

Zhu Jin is no longer the docile and obedient person he was before.

It would be nice if she didn't take advantage of the situation and frame them.

Are you counting on Zhu Jin to help?

This is obviously unreasonable.

"Anyway, when the evidence arrives, there will naturally be a way to deliver it to Mr. Huo." Zhu Yuan said nonchalantly, "Mom, just do me this favor."

Facing his beloved daughter since childhood, Gao Weilan could only nod and agree to her unreasonable request.

"Okay. I'll help you again, but if it doesn't work, you can't force it, you know?"

"I know."

……

Inside the black Bentley, the atmosphere is depressing.

Assistant Chen, who originally wanted to report on his work, chose not to speak to protect himself.

Zhu Jin sat near the car door and looked out. His whole face looked ugly and his thin lips were pursed tightly.

She didn't want to be controlled by her emotions, but when she thought about what happened on her birthday just now and the things in her memories, they all wrapped around her, wrapping up her emotions and making her feel depressed.

It turns out that the father's love that I have longed for for so many years can actually be easily obtained by standing taller than him.

Does this so-called father's love really have any meaning and necessity?

What on earth have I been wishing for all these years?

Huo Jingcheng glanced at Zhu Jin who was leaning against the car window lonely, took out his cell phone and sent a message to Assistant Chen.

The salty sea breeze blows in from the car window, bringing with it a faint ocean scent.

Zhu Jin came to his senses and looked outside.

What you see is endless blue.

Blue sky, white clouds and sandy beach.

Didn't they go back? Why did you come to the beach?

Zhu Jin looked back at Huo Jingcheng, "Aren't we going home?"

"I can still rest tomorrow. I'll stay here tonight just to watch the sea and breeze."

When the other party said this, Zhu Jin didn't say anything more and just responded in a low voice.

The car stopped in front of the beach villa, and Zhu Jin pushed Huo Jingcheng towards the villa.

Assistant Chen and the driver lived in another villa.

"Why do you suddenly want to come to the beach?" Zhu Jin asked hesitantly, "Is it because of me?"

As soon as these words came out, she instantly felt embarrassed again.

He seemed to be a bit sentimental. Maybe Huo Jingcheng just wanted to relax.

"Yes."

Huo Jingcheng's concise and clear answer left Zhu Jin stunned.

She looked at Huo Jingcheng blankly, somewhat doubting what she had just heard.

Was Huo Jingcheng answering his own question just now?

So, did he really come to the beach because of himself?

"I see that you are not in a very good mood." Huo Jingcheng said, "Maybe coming to the beach to enjoy some fresh air can make you feel better."

The straightforward words revealed Huo Jingcheng's thoughts.

He said it directly without any cover-up.

The corners of Zhu Jin's mouth raised slightly uncontrollably.

"Ahem." She put her hand in front of her lips and coughed softly, "Then let's go out for a walk later? I see that you didn't eat anything just now. Let me order you a bowl of noodles."

"it is good."

Zhu Jin pushed him to the living room, turned around and entered the kitchen.

As soon as she opened the refrigerator, an idea came to her.

This place has never been occupied, could it be that no food has been prepared at all?

When she saw the refrigerator full of fresh and tender ingredients, this idea was instantly given up.

Sure enough, the money making abilities of rich people were beyond her imagination, and there was nothing they couldn't do.

With this in mind, Zhu Jin selected the ingredients in the refrigerator, washed them, and sliced ​​them.

Heat oil in a pan and fry eggs.

The faint fragrance floated from the kitchen to the outside, and Assistant Chen, who was reporting to Huo Jingcheng in the living room, also smelled it.

Huo Jingcheng raised his hand, "Let them continue according to the previous plan, no need to change it. As for Lu Siyuan's matter, don't interfere."
