After the scumbag cheated on me, I turned around and married the heir to a wealthy family.

Cheng Zhizhi's eyes shone and her tone was excited.

"Jinjin, did you know! The Shen Group is planning to hold a jewelry competition, and I must participate. The prize this time is Jennifer's necklace!"

Zhu Jin was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect to have the chance to encounter her mother's works.

Cheng Zhizhi didn't notice Zhu Jin's strangeness and was still chattering.

"That's Jennifer's necklace! You know, Jennifer's past mistakes were all in the hands of those big jewelry collectors. We ordinary people didn't even have a chance to take a look."

"Besides, Master Jennifer has not released any new works for several years. This necklace can be said to be unique and valuable. It would be great if I could win the championship."

"Even if I can't win the competition, if I have the opportunity to see the jewelry designed by Jennifer, I will have no regrets in my life!" Cheng Zhizhi said her face with admiration when she mentioned Jennifer's name.

The three words Jennifer have an irresistible magic in the field of jewelry design.

It was undeniable that Zhu Jin was moved.

This necklace was designed by her mother, so Zhu Jin naturally wanted to take it back.

If possible, Zhu Jin would like to use design to win it back openly.

Then the mother's spirit in heaven will definitely be proud of her!

Thinking like this, Zhu Jin secretly made up his mind to participate in this competition.

"Jinjin? What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Seeing Zhu Jin's absent-minded look, Cheng Zhizhi was a little confused and waved her fingers in front of her eyes.

Zhu Jin came to his senses and shook his head, "It's okay. I also want to participate in this design competition. Thank you for telling me about this competition."

"Oh, when did you become so polite to me?" Cheng Zhizhi bumped Zhu Jin with her shoulder, "If you want to participate, just go and try. I want to participate too!"

"Then let's go together." Zhu Jin said.

Cheng Zhizhi agreed very simply, "Okay."

After get off work, Zhu Jin returned to the Huo family's old house. She quickly returned to her workroom and went online to investigate and collect information about the Shen Group's jewelry competition mechanism and previous years' award-winning works.

The competition starts with an audition, from which the top 100 contestants are selected, and then a promotion round based on different themes.

The Shen Group holds a jewelry competition every three years, and the topic selection every year is very interesting.

Zhu Jin was so focused on the competition information that he completely forgot to eat.

After Huo Jingcheng arrived home, he learned from the housekeeper that Zhu Jin had been staying in the workroom since his return and had not come down to eat.

Huo Jingcheng frowned and said, "Bring the food."

Assistant Chen took the plate from the butler and followed Huo Jingcheng to the workroom.

A knock on the door brought Zhu Jin back from her thoughts on the information, and she replied casually, "Come in."

"What are you busy with? So busy that you forget to eat and sleep?" Huo Jingcheng raised his chin slightly to signal Assistant Chen to put the food on the table.

After Assistant Chen put it down, he voluntarily retreated. Huo Jingcheng and Zhu Jin were the only two people in the workroom.

Zhu Jin rubbed his forehead and looked tired, "Sorry, I accidentally forgot the time."

After hesitating for a moment, Zhu Jin tentatively asked, "Honey, do you know about the Shen Group's jewelry competition?"

"Yeah." Huo Jingcheng understood immediately, "Do you want to participate in this jewelry competition?"

Zhu Jin nodded, "I want to take part and give it a try."

"For Jennifer's necklace?" Huo Jingcheng asked.

Although he didn't know the relationship between Zhu Jin and Jennifer, it was enough to tell that the two had a good relationship from the way the other party could easily take out the brooch that Jennifer had never revealed.

"Yes." Zhu Jin didn't want to hide it, so he simply agreed.

Huo Jingcheng's dark eyes flashed with something strange.

He muttered for a moment and then said, "This competition is most likely to pave the way for Shen Yingying. Therefore, the winner of the competition may have been determined within the Shen Group."

Shen Yingying has just returned to China. As Shen's key training target, she needs to use this competition to build her reputation.

In the past, the Shen Group Jewelry Competition had generous rewards, but this time the necklace designed by Jennifer was presented, which can be said to be unprecedented in domestic jewelry design competitions.

As a prize, the Jennifer necklace has done an invisible job of promoting this competition to a large extent.

Zhu Jin was stunned and fell into silence, as if he did not expect such a reason.

No wonder...

But thinking about her mother's necklace, Zhu Jin felt a little uncomfortable.

"No matter what, I still want to try my best and give it a try."

"Okay. Just go ahead and do whatever you want." Huo Jingcheng pushed the plate with the food forward, "But you eat the food first. Then continue after you finish."

"Okay." Zhu Jin agreed obediently.

Huo Jingcheng tapped the back of his wheelchair hand with his finger, "Regarding this competition, you should prepare well. I will ask Assistant Chen to help you find out good news in advance."

With Huo Jingcheng's help, it would be easier and the information would be more comprehensive than searching by yourself.

"Thanks husband!"

Huo Jingcheng did not leave the workroom, but took a book and sat beside it to read.

After Zhu Jin finished eating, he began to investigate and organize information again.

The night was getting darker, and he couldn't help but feel sleepy. Zhu Jin's arm supporting his head went limp, and he lay on the table, falling into sleep. The pen he was taking notes in his hand drew a long line across the white paper. Paper, leaving an ink mark.

When Huo Jingcheng, who was reading in the same room as her, heard the sound, he wheeled his wheelchair to her side. The man's strong arms held her firmly in his arms, and he drove the wheelchair towards the bedroom.

The woman in her arms smelled of elegant sandalwood, as if an invisible hand was seducing her.

Zhu Jin was restless as she slept. She twisted her body and her buttocks rubbed against the hot and firm spot on the man's crotch.

Huo Jingcheng's eyes darkened, he raised his hand and slapped her hip unceremoniously, his voice hoarse, "Don't make trouble, be good."

Zhu Jin, who was woken up by being slapped, had confused eyes. She had no idea what had happened. She only felt a dull pain in her butt and said in a vague voice, "Well, what's wrong?"

"It's okay. Just continue to sleep." A large, generous palm was placed on the back of the woman's head, holding her in her arms, while the other hand gently patted her back.

Already unconscious, Zhu Jin fell into a deep sleep again after being patted.

She vaguely remembered that her mother patted her back like this when she was a child to coax her to sleep.

After Huo Jingcheng placed the person on the soft big bed, he went around to the other side to rest.

But the hands tightly holding his waist refused to let go.

Zhu Jin kept crawling into Huo Jingcheng's arms.

The man sighed softly. He stood up from the wheelchair, picked up the man's petite body and placed it on the inside of the big bed. He also lay down on the bed.

The moment Huo Jingcheng lay down, Zhu Jin's whole body was like an octopus, his hands and feet tightly wrapped around Huo Jingcheng.

Huo Jingcheng let out a helpless sigh again.

If Zhu Jin hadn't been too tired to look at him, he would definitely not have spared him so easily tonight.
