mutual benefit [gl]

Chen Yuanzhen went up to the third floor of the shopping mall, and narrowed his cat-like eyes before walking too far in the loose crowd.

She saw Cui Jinxian sitting outside the coffee shop, drinking coffee and reading a magazine leisurely.

Chen Yuanzhen clenched her handbag, she calmed down, and walked slowly towards Cui Jinxian.

Cui Jinxian was probably the most suitable woman Chen Yuanzhen had ever seen, and she was the daughter of a wealthy family.

She has good looks and outstanding temperament. No matter how many women she is with, Cui Jinxian's unique temperament can always make her stand out from the crowd.

Because of this, Chen Yuanzhen never understood why a woman like Cui Jinxian married Chen Yuanshuo in the first place.

Chen Yuanshuo did have a good skin, but would a person like Cui Jinxian really be willing to entrust his life to him just because of his handsome face?

Chen Yuanzhen was thinking while walking, Cui Jinxian raised her eyes slightly, she saw Chen Yuanzhen walking towards her, startled with the hand holding the coffee cup, then put down the cup slowly, and stood up.

"Sorry, sister-in-law, I'm late."

Chen Yuanzhen walked up to Cui Jinxian and apologized.

Cui Jinxian smiled and shook her head. She pushed a strand of hair hanging from her ear behind her ear, and said softly:

"I can see that you are in a hurry, look at the sweat on your head."

As Cui Jinxian said, she took out a pack of wet wipes from her wallet and handed it to Chen Yuanzhen.

"Wipe it."

Chen Yuanzhen chuckled, reached out to take the wet wipe, Cui Jinxian bent her hand, motioned for her to sit down, and then sat back down.

Chen Yuanzhen wiped his sweat, while looking down at the table in front of him calmly.

There's a cup of coffee on the table, a new fashion magazine, and...

Chen Yuanzhen saw a box next to Cui Jinxian's coffee cup, she was wondering what it was, but Cui Jinxian pushed the box in front of Chen Yuanzhen first.

"The children at home like to eat biscuits. I always feel that they are not made well outside, so I baked some at home. I will bring you Yuan Zhen to taste today."

Chen Yuanzhen raised his eyes, meeting Cui Jinxian's smiling eyes.

A look of astonishment flashed in her eyes, and then she quickly laughed again.

"Second sister-in-law is really ingenious."

Cui Jinxian pursed her lips and said with a smile, "It's just that I have nothing to do at home."

Chen Yuanzhen smiled and said nothing, she remembered the cake that Cui Jinxian sent to her home before, and couldn't help but compare the two sisters-in-law again in her heart.

She was also born with a golden spoon in her mouth, the daughter of a thousand golds, the other one had no fingers, and this second sister-in-law...

Chen Yuanzhen seemed to have never seen Cui Jinxian ever get emotional, she was always gentle and gentle, just like a lamb.

But judging from the fact that she arrived in time to rescue Chen Yuanshuo at the last birthday party, Cui Jinxian is definitely not just a housewife who loves cooking.

At this time, Chen Yuanzhen's heart seemed to be completely drenched by a glass of iced Americano,

Perhaps compared to Chen Yuanshuo, she should be more worried about Cui Jinxian.

"Second sister-in-law, you sit here, the children..."

"The children are studying in the studio upstairs, and I will pick them up later."

"Oh... that's right." Chen Yuanzhen nodded with a smile, and didn't speak any more.

Within a few minutes, a waiter walked out of the coffee shop, and she walked up to Chen Yuanzhen with a cup of coffee.

"I, I haven't ordered yet?" Chen Yuanzhen looked at the waiter in astonishment.

"I ordered it."

Cui Jinxian laughed.

"Eh?"

"It seems that you have forgotten Yuan Zhen." Cui Jinxian said softly, "When your second brother took me to visit my parents-in-law, you came home halfway. That was the first time we met. You were drinking This kind of coffee, I asked you at that time if it would be too bitter. You said it was okay. "

A trace of astonishment flashed in Chen Yuanzhen's eyes when he heard the words.

She had forgotten these things a long time ago, but Cui Jinxian still remembered them, and even said them so eloquently.

"Second sister-in-law, you really have a heart." Chen Yuanzhen smiled. She picked up the coffee cup in front of her and took a sip of coffee. On the one hand, she was hiding her uneasiness, and on the other hand, she was expressing to Cui Jinxian that she accepted her kindness. .

"Yuan Zhen, you don't seem to go shopping with your mother-in-law often?" Cui Jinxian asked.

Chen Yuanzhen was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled awkwardly: "Yes...Aunt Kang, she probably doesn't like shopping with me too much."

"Then Yuan Zhen, you may be thinking too much."

Chen Yuanzhen was a little puzzled when she heard the words, she smiled and said, "Second sister-in-law, what do you mean by this?"

"Yesterday, I went shopping with my sister-in-law and my mother-in-law. When I went to the restaurant for dinner, my mother-in-law mentioned you, Yuan Zhen."

"mentioned me?"

Cui Jinxian nodded and said, "Yes, my mother-in-law said Yuan Zhen, you are about to turn 30, and you should think about life-long events."

Hearing the sound, Chen Yuanzhen shook his hand holding the coffee cup, causing dark brown waves to stir up in the coffee cup.

Cui Jinxian took Chen Yuanzhen's subtle reaction into her eyes, and she raised her eyes and said, "My sister-in-law is also very active, and immediately recommended one of my father's business partners to my mother-in-law."

Su Zhenzhen?

Chen Yuanzhen rolled his eyes in his heart, but his face was still very calm.

"Sister-in-law?" Chen Yuanzhen pretended to be really interested in this, she sat up straight, and moved slightly closer to Cui Jinxian.

"What about the person she recommended...?"

"That man is almost fifty, and he works in a financial company. Well... I also heard from my sister-in-law that he has been divorced three times, and his second and third wives each have a son with him, but he has only one child. No. No, I just divorced my third wife for half a year, and I'm thinking of finding another one."

"Oh... that's right." Chen Yuanzhen looked slightly embarrassed.

"However,"

Cui Jinxian put down the coffee cup in her hand and made a crisp sound.

"I blocked you for Yuan Zhen." Cui Jinxian smiled and looked at Chen Yuanzhen.

Hearing what Cui Jinxian said, Chen Yuanzhen's stiff face eased a little, and she asked with a wry smile:

"Second sister-in-law, did you block it for me?"

"I told my mother-in-law that Yuan Zhen should pay more attention to those young upstarts than those so-called elites who are old and established. Their development potential is truly limitless. For the group, it is also these Young people are more beneficial."

After Cui Jinxian finished speaking, she pursed her lips and looked at Chen Yuanzhen.

Chen Yuanzhen understood what Cui Jinxian meant, but she couldn't point it out. She just breathed a sigh of relief, stroked her heart and said:

"Fortunately, there is your second sister-in-law, I don't want to see that guy."

After finishing speaking, Chen Yuanzhen frowned again, and complained sharply: "Sister-in-law is really, how dare anyone recommend it?!"

Seeing this, Cui Jinxian smiled softly, and said softly, "Your sister-in-law also thinks that person has good abilities, so she may have neglected other conditions of the other party."

"Oh?" Chen Yuanzhen snorted coldly, "I see, my sister-in-law really dislikes me and that's why she did this. Isn't it because my elder brother doesn't want to see me, so she dared to do this!"

After Chen Yuanzhen finished speaking, she turned to look at Cui Jinxian again. This time, she reached out and held Cui Jinxian's warm hand.

"Hello second sister-in-law! In this family, only you two are the best to me!"

Seeing Chen Yuanzhen's coquettish eyes, Cui Jinxian's smile deepened, and her other hand slowly covered the back of Chen Yuanzhen's.

"Second sister-in-law treated you, Yuan Zhen, as her own sister from the very beginning."

After all, the two looked at each other and smiled, and they really looked like a pair of sisters.

Walking out of the mall, Chen Yuanzhen stood outside the mall and took a deep breath.

She felt as if half of her strength had been taken away by someone, and the man left half of it for her, which could support her to stand on the ground in high heels without falling down, but could not make her think calmly.

Chen Yuanzhen stood still for a while, then tightened his coat and walked forward.

When she came, she asked Zhou Ming to park the car in the parking lot of a nearby supermarket. She walked to the front of the car and knocked on the window, then opened the door and sat in the back seat.

Chen Yuanzhen sank his body into the soft car seat cushion, and after a while, he closed his eyes and said slowly:

"Go and check Cui Jinxian."

Zhou Ming nodded and answered yes, and Chen Yuanzhen opened his eyes again.

She bit her lip and thought for a moment, then changed her mind and said, "No, don't check on Cui Jinxian."

Zhou Ming raised his eyebrows. He didn't understand what Chen Yuanzhen meant, but he didn't rush to ask.

I saw Chen Yuanzhen leaning his elbows against the closed windshield, his eyes scanning the dim parking lot outside the car window, his mind seemed uncertain.

She clenched her fists and let her fingertips caress her soft and hot palm. After a while, her fingers stopped moving, only to hear Chen Yuanzhen's voice sinking, and calmly said as before:

"Check her two children."

A trace of surprise flashed in Zhou Ming's eyes when he heard the words. He recalled Su Zhenzhen's cheating, and he was startled suddenly. He immediately frowned and said:

"Are you suspecting that Cui Jinxian also..."

Chen Yuanzhen shook his head.

"She and Su Zhenzhen are fundamentally different people. What she does can only be more outrageous than Su Zhenzhen."

Although Zhou Ming couldn't understand what Chen Yuanzhen meant, he still nodded and followed Chen Yuanzhen's arrangement.

"Boss, country Y is all set up, look..."

Chen Yuanzhen was a little embarrassed.

She had previously thought that there was an unstable factor like Cui Jinxian around Chen Yuanshuo, but if she wanted to force Chen Yuanyang, she would have to touch the thread of Country Y.

But Cui Jinxian...

Chen Yuanzhen rubbed his hair with some annoyance.

After walking out of the shopping mall, she realized that today's conversation with Cui Jinxian was led by her throughout the whole process.

Whether it was ordering coffee for herself from the very beginning, or she seemed to inadvertently reveal Su Zhenzhen's hostility towards her through the blind date incident later, and her weak voice in the Chen family.

There is only one thing she wants to tell herself today——

In the Chen family, the only people she could rely on, Chen Yuanzhen, were Chen Yuanshuo and his wife.

Cui Jinxian was not only trying to win her to stand in line today, but also warned herself not to think about other things besides standing in line.

After all, even her life's major events depended on her, Cui Jinxian's few words, so that she didn't trust her.

Chen Yuanzhen found that her thoughts had been completely taken away by Cui Jinxian. Fortunately, she reacted in time at the end and did not reveal her secrets, but everything he said to her today was probably in her expectation.

Cui Jinxian is far more terrifying than Chen Yuanyang and Chen Yuanshuo.

But why did such a woman marry Chen Yuanshuo?

Chen Yuanzhen suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

Cui Jinxian has always been very friendly towards her, and Chen Yuanshuo's attitude softened only after meeting Cui Jinxian...

Could it be that all of Chen Yuanshuo's friendliness towards him now was inspired by Cui Jinxian?

Thinking of this, Chen Yuanzhen shivered.

"boss?"

After hearing Chen Yuanzhen's reply for a long time, Zhou Ming turned around and called her.

Only then did Chen Yuanzhen recover, she reached out and rubbed her temples.

"Do it. If you don't do it, you won't have a chance."

"it is good."

After Zhou Ming finished speaking, he turned his head and started the car.

Although Chen Yuanzhen gave the order, she felt uneasy in her heart one after another. She took out her mobile phone, hesitated again and again, and called Ji Cixi.

The call was quickly connected, and Chen Yuanzhen lowered his voice and asked:

"Has Gao Xiu contacted you?"

At that time, Ji Cixi was in front of the computer looking for information on going to the square. After she connected the phone, she took off her glasses, got up and walked to the window, looking at the trees that had just sprouted new shoots and said.

"I saw him."

Ji Cixi's heart moved when she heard the words, she paused with downcast eyes, and repeated: "You saw him."

"Yes. I saw him at today's meeting."

"Then it doesn't look like he was one of your father's secret assistants. Your previous plan fell through, didn't it?"

Chen Yuanzhen did not speak, expressing his acquiescence.

"I see."

As soon as Ji Cixi finished speaking, she heard Chen Yuanzhen's slightly nervous voice.

"Don't contact Gao Xiu. I will help you find a house again, soon..."

Chen Yuanzhen's hand holding the phone gradually tightened.

"Don't appear in any places related to the Chen Group in the near future."

Chen Yuanzhen finished these words in one breath, then closed her eyes, she waited for Ji Cixi's complaint,

Even scolding.

After all, she was the one who proposed to let Ji Cixi join this game, but things didn't develop as she imagined.

Ji Cixi was silent for a few seconds, she watched the branches outside the window being swayed by the wind, and the green shoots growing on the branches were also trembling pitifully in the wind.

After a while, Ji Cixi said:

"I knew early on that things were not going to be that easy."

Ji Cixi's voice was like a glass of boiled water that had been sitting for a long time, revealing fatigue in the calmness.

"Haven't you ever considered that maybe the secret special assistant is something your father deliberately released?"

As if being blasted from top to bottom, Chen Yuanzhen was startled, and her drooping head suddenly lifted.

"What, what did you say?!"
