After the scumbag cheated on me, I turned around and married the heir to a wealthy family.
Chapter 31: My husband will bear it for you
Zhu Jin felt a weight on her shoulders. Huo Jingcheng sat next to her, his eyes falling on the velvet jewelry box, "Isn't this what grandpa gave you before?"
When Mrs. Shen faced Huo Jingcheng, the smile on her face became more genuine, "Yes. I accidentally broke it before, and I plan to ask Miss Zhu to help repair it."
"Oh?" Huo Jingcheng raised his eyebrows, "Does Jinjin plan to repair this necklace?"
Zhu Jin could hear the protective meaning in Huo Jingcheng's words. She had no doubt that if she shook her head, the other party would help her refuse the matter.
"I am confident that I can repair this necklace." Zhu Jin said.
Huo Jingcheng raised his eyebrows, reached out and put the velvet jewelry box into his pocket, "I'll take it back for you. I'll give it to you when I get home."
"I didn't expect that Jingcheng would also be fond of his wife." Mrs. Shen joked, "It seems that you really like her."
"Of course." Huo Jingcheng put his arm around Zhu Jin's waist, "I personally chose her."
Zhu Jin was startled, and then he figured it out.
Huo Jingcheng wanted her to be taken seriously in front of the rest of the Shen family, which was normal.
Mrs. Shen sipped her tea and nodded, "Will you stay for dinner tonight? Maybe you haven't been back to accompany me and your grandpa for a long time."
Just when Huo Jingcheng was about to agree, the housekeeper who had retreated came forward again.
"Old madam, the eldest young master said that he would bring the young lady and the others back."
Mrs. Shen frowned and was about to reprimand, but Huo Jingcheng replied casually, "Since uncle is coming back, I will come back to accompany you and grandpa in a few days."
Before Mrs. Shen could speak, he added, "It's getting late today. I'll take Jinjin back first."
Seeing that he had decided to go, Mrs. Shen also knew that it was useless to persuade him to stay, so she simply nodded in agreement, "That's all. You go back first, and pay attention to safety on the road."
Ever since Huo Jingcheng appeared, Zhu Jin had just followed him obediently, and finally smiled and waved goodbye to the two elders of the Shen family.
Huo Jingcheng took out the velvet jewelry box and said, "Will you repair it yourself?"
Zhu Jin nodded, "Yes. The craftsmanship of this necklace is good, I want to try it. Besides, I see that grandma cares about it and is anxious to use it. Instead of leaving it to an unfamiliar craftsman, I might as well repair it myself."
"Aren't you afraid of breaking it?" Huo Jingcheng asked.
"I'm confident it can be fixed." Zhu Jin answered confidently.
In fact, it is not difficult to repair this necklace.
Those craftsmen who refused were most likely afraid of offending the Shen family if they failed to repair it, so no one was willing to take it.
"You can do it yourself." Huo Jingcheng closed the velvet jewelry box and handed it to Zhu Jin, "Repair it boldly, my husband will take care of it for you."
Zhu Jin carefully put the velvet jewelry box in her pocket. She paused when she heard those two words, then her cheeks became flushed, and her ears gradually became hot.
Although she occasionally called Huo Jingcheng's husband and wife each other on the phone, this was the first time she heard this affectionate title from Huo Jingcheng's mouth.
Zhu Jin subconsciously leaned toward the car door, wanting to stay as far away as possible from the person who could make his cheeks feel hot.
"Why are you so far away, are you afraid that I will eat you?"
"without……"
Zhu Jin's words were swallowed by Huo Jingcheng's sudden tug, and she was pulled down into Huo Jingcheng's arms. The scent of the man instantly hit her nostrils, wrapping her tightly.
"If not, come closer."
Huo Jingcheng's big palm gently patted her back, "Is grandma making things difficult for you?"
Zhu Jin thought about it carefully and shook his head, "Grandma is very easy to get along with and doesn't make things difficult for me."
Huo Jingcheng's hands paused.
"I told grandma the time we met and the reason for getting married." After Zhu Jin finished speaking, he hesitated and said, "So, is it okay?"
When she answered, she just felt that she shouldn't lie, not to mention that if the Shen family wanted to investigate these matters, they could easily investigate them, so there was no need for her to lie.
"It's okay. You answered it well."
When Huo Jingcheng spoke, Zhu Jin was lying on his chest and could clearly feel the vibration in the man's chest.
Such intimate gestures always made Zhu Jin have wild thoughts, which made him blush.
……
On the other side, Mrs. Shen's face suddenly turned cold after the black Maybach walked away.
"Housekeeper Zhao, you are really becoming more and more unruly now!" Mrs. Shen scolded with a cold face, "When will it be your turn to make the final decision on the master's affairs?"
Butler Zhao hurriedly explained, "Old madam, I'm just afraid that the second wife will break the necklace and make you sad."
"After all, that is a gift from the master." As he said that, he did not forget to glance at Mr. Shen.
Mr. Shen, who was sitting aside drinking tea and watching a show, frowned and asked, "What gift?"
As if he had seen the savior, Butler Zhao poured beans out of a bamboo tube and explained in detail what had just happened in the garden.
In the end, he did not forget to reiterate his position, "I am really worried that the second wife will break the necklace and the old lady will be sad."
Mr. Shen coughed slightly, and when he opened his mouth to persuade, Mrs. Shen looked at her sideways and swallowed his words.
He turned his head away from looking at Butler Zhao and stood up with the tea cup, "I'll go to the study first. Call me after dinner."
"Tell me, did the boss ask you to do this?"
Mrs. Shen's tone was cold, and there was no smile on her face that was kind and kind in front of Zhu Jin before.
Butler Zhao lowered his head and did not dare to look at Mrs. Shen. He swallowed, "No, no. I just..."
"I remember your son works in the Shen Group, right?" Mrs. Shen interrupted, "I think you should know who still holds the shares of the Shen Group."
Butler Zhao's pupils shrank suddenly. He had been in the Shen family for so many years, so he was certainly not an idiot.
After thinking again and again, Butler Zhao had no choice but to confess honestly, "Yes, the eldest young master asked me to help recommend the necklace that Miss Yingying brought back to you."
After the words fell, the hall became extremely quiet.
Mrs. Shen didn't answer any more, and Butler Zhao didn't dare to raise his head.
"Housekeeper Zhao, go and clean up." Mrs. Shen said quietly.
"Old lady, I..."
"There are some things I don't want to say a second time."
After saying that, Mrs. Shen got up and went upstairs to the study.
Mr. Shen sighed, "Why do you have to do it so brilliantly? Butler Zhao has been with us for so many years, so let's just remind him this time."
"It's precisely because he has been with us for so many years that we can't let this matter go. We must scare the monkeys and let the people in the old house know who is the master."
Mrs. Shen said with a gloomy face, "Even Butler Zhao can be bribed. The boss's hands are getting longer and longer recently."
Mr. Shen fell silent for a moment.
It seems that Mr. Shen is the master of the Shen family, but in fact almost all the shares and property are in the hands of Mrs. Shen.
Therefore, the actual person in charge of the Shen family is Mrs. Shen.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the study.
"Dad, mom."
