A Beloved Wife in Marriage

He drove and looked straight ahead. “My surname is Chen. Miss Lin, you can call me Little Chen.”

Lin Qingqian: ‘

He looked more than ten years older than her. She really couldn’t bring herself to call him “Little Chen”.

“I’ll call you Brother Chen from now on.”

Brother Chen didn’t say anything, as if he had tacitly agreed.

The car stopped at the entrance of the company. Lin Qingqian unbuckled her seatbelt and said to him before getting out of the car, “Brother Chen, park the car in the parking lot. When I’m at work, you can use your time as you please.” “Yes, Miss Lin,” Brother Chen replied stiffly, not saying a word.

Lin Qingqian carried her handbag and alighted from the car. When she walked into the company, many employees greeted her and she nodded.

When she was about to walk to her office, she glanced at the office next door from the corner of her eye. The door was half open, and a man was holding a kettle and spraying water on the bamboo on the table.

Lin Qingqian walked over and knocked on the door.

Han Liubai looked up at her, his gentle eyes looking even gentler under the mist. “Morning, Director Lin.”

Lin Qingqian’s red lips curled up slightly. “Didn’t I tell you to rest at home for a few more days?”

“I’ve already recovered. If I stay at home, I’ll also be thinking about work. In that case, why don’t I just come to the company?” Han Liubai explained gently.

“Alright, don’t push yourself too much.” Lin Qingqian pursed her lips and smiled before turning around to return to her office next door.

Han Liubai looked at her figure, the longing in his eyes leaking out uncontrollably.

Lin Qingqian hung her handbag on the rack and walked to her desk to sit down. After a while, Su Ying knocked on the door and entered with a cup of coffee in her hand.

“Sister Qingqian, your coffee, with milk and three sugars.” Su Ying placed the cup in front of her.

“Thank you.” Lin Qingqian smiled. “By the way, Xiao Ying, can you help me do something?”

Su Ying nodded. “Sister Qingqian, tell me…’

When Su Ying walked out of the subway at nine in the evening, there was no one around.

Her house was about a kilometer away from the subway entrance. As she listened to her music and walked in the direction of her house, she suddenly realized that there was another figure behind her.

At first, she didn’t care. However, after walking a distance, she realized that the black shadow was still behind her. She couldn’t help but recall the horror movies and suspense films she had seen in the past…

Immediately, the hairs on her body stood on ends as goosebumps rose on her skin. She couldn’t help but quicken her pace, but the black shadow behind her also quickened its pace.

After verifying her thoughts, she became even more afraid. She turned around and ran…

The black shadow also ran.

Su Ying usually doesn’t exercise and was panting after a few steps. She was afraid and couldn’t help but turn around hesitantly.

Her almond-shaped eyes suddenly widened. Before she could say anything, her lips were covered and she was dragged to an alley not far away.

Lin Qingqian didn’t dare to be careless for Grandma’s birthday banquet. She packed up early in the morning and followed Jiang Yanshen to the Jiang family residence.

Old Madam Jiang had already woken up and was eating at the dining table. She was especially happy to see Lin Qingqian.

“Qianqian, come and sit with Grandma.” She called Lin Qingqian to sit beside her and asked kindly, “Have you eaten breakfast?”

“I’ve eaten, Grandma.” Lin Qingqian’s voice was light as she carried a box in her hand. “Grandma, guess what gift I prepared for you?”

“This…” Old Madam Jiang shook her head. “Grandma can’t guess. Actually, as long as you come, Grandma will be happy. It’s better than any gift.”

With that, she glanced at the man standing at the side.

Jiang Yanshen’s eyes were gentle, and his thin lips parted slightly. ‘You don’t have to look at me. I don’t know.”

She had wrapped the box up mysteriously early in the morning and didn’t even allow him to touch it. How would he know what she had prepared?

Hearing him say this, the old lady became even more curious and looked at Lin Qingqian.

Lin Qingqian smiled. “Grandma, open it yourself.”

“You’ve made Grandma curious!” She smiled and took the tissue from Madam Liu to wipe her hands. Then, she looked at the box. “Let me see what novel things Qianqian prepared.”

Her thin fingers pinched the sides of the box and slowly lifted it. She stuck her head out to take a look..

A hint of surprise appeared in her eyes. “Such a beautiful cheongsam.”

Madam Liu took the lid of the box and peered over to take a look. She also gasped in surprise, “This cheongsam is beautiful!”

Seeing that she was happy, Lin Qingqian was also happy. “Grandma, do you like

“I like it!” The old lady reached out to touch the cloth. Her hands were trembling, afraid that her nails would scratch such a beautiful dress. “Girl, where did you get it?”

Lin Qingqian curved her lips. “Grandma, have you forgotten who my master

The old lady was stunned and said in surprise, “That old fellow Qi Min is willing to let you give me the cheongsam she made herself?”

“Look at what you’re saying.” Lin Qingqian raised the corners of her mouth. “My master’s personality is a little aloof, but she has a sharp tongue and a soft heart. It’s not like you don’t know that. She will also attend your birthday banquet later.”

“Alright, alright, alright.” Old Madam Jiang was especially happy. She turned around and said, “Xiao Liu, take the clothes and iron them. I’ll be wearing this today.”

After that, she was still worried and instructed, “Be careful. Don’t burn it.”

Madam Liu took the box from Lin Qingqian and said with a smile, “Got it. Are you still worried about my abilities?”

There were still a few hours before the birthday banquet. After the old lady ate, Lin Qingqian chatted with her for a while before the servants brought the medicine over.

She was sleepy after taking the medicine, so Lin Qingqian helped her upstairs to rest.

The birthday banquet was held in the hotel, so the servants of the Jiang residence were not so busy. Their daily work was carried out in an orderly manner.

Lin Qingqian came out of the old lady’s room and was about to go downstairs when she bumped into Jiang Chongjing at the staircase.

A pair of sharp eyes stared at her, as if calculating something.

Lin Qingqian called out politely and distantly, “Second Master Jiang.”

Jiang Chongjing nodded and said coldly, “I heard that you rejected Yanshen at the wedding previously?”

Lin Qing’s thin eyelashes trembled slightly, and she looked at him calmly with her clear eyes. For a moment, she was not sure of his intentions.

“The Jiang Family is not a small family. Yanshen is also the head of the Jiang Family. Since you rejected him in public, why are you entangled with him

His expression was tense, and he sounded like he was reprimanding a junior. “Aren’t you afraid that others will criticize him?”

Lin Qingqian pursed her lips. Before she could speak, she heard a cold voice— “What does it have to do with Second Uncle whether or not I’m criticized?”

Lin Qingqian turned her head and saw Jiang Yanshen walking up the stairs. Her suspended heart instantly relaxed, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

When Jiang Chongjing saw that Jiang Yanshen’s expression was completely different, he smiled and said, “I’m just concerned about you. After all, you’re the President of Tianyue Group and the head of our Jiang Family. We can’t let others laugh at you.”

Jiang Yanshen completely ignored his good intentions and walked to Lin Qingqian’s side. He held Lin Qingqian’s hand in front of Jiang Chongjing and turned to look at him…

“Second Uncle, you don’t have to worry about me. Since you’re back, you should take good care of Yunshen. Don’t let him hang out with that bunch of bad friends all day!”

With that, he completely ignored Jiang Chongjing’s gloomy expression and pulled Lin Qingqian downstairs.

Jiang Chongjing originally wanted to go downstairs, but he was rebuked by Jiang Yanshen and turned around to go back up.

Lin Qingqian and Jiang Yanshen walked out of the Jiang Residence’s villa and strolled on the tree-lined path. Not far away, the rockery was flowing with water, and it was a little cool when a gust of wind blew.

“Are you talking to your second uncle like this because he came back this time to fight with you for the family assets?”

As Jiang Yanshen walked, he glanced at her from the corner of his eye. “Are you afraid that I’ll lose?”

Lin Qingqian shook her head. “You won’t lose, but I’m worried that you’ll chase the dog into an alley, cornering it.”

Jiang Yanshen held her fingers tightly and said in a low voice, “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.

Lin Qingqian nodded. It was good that he was confident. She was also confident in him.

After walking a distance away from the Jiang residence, Jiang Yanshen suddenly said, “Do you know how my father died?”

Lin Qingqian stopped in her tracks and looked up at him. Sunlight shone at the corners of her eyes through the swaying leaves, illuminating the doubts in her eyes. “Wasn’t he in a car accident?”

Jiang Yanshen lowered his eyes. “The car crash was real, but it wasn’t an accident.”

Lin Qingqian’s breathing stopped. If it was not an accident, then it was murder.

A thought suddenly appeared in her mind and she said in disbelief, “Could it be… your Second Uncle?”

Jiang Yanshen’s thin lips curled up as he said coldly, “Otherwise, why didn’t Grandpa hand Tianyue Group to him back then? Why didn’t Grandma allow him to come back even once in many years?”

“But…” Lin Qingqian bit her lip. “They’re biological brothers!”

They were brothers with the same father and mother. Was there a need to be so ruthless in order to fight for the family assets?

She was born and raised in Yu Mountain. There were brothers who had split up and caused trouble. At most, they would spit at each other and push each other a little when they met. No matter what, no one would die.

Jiang Yanshen stared at her with his dark eyes, his thin lips holding an ambiguous smile. ‘Qianqian, you’re too innocent.”

She was very smart, but she had never experienced the darkness of a wealthy family and didn’t understand the blood and ugliness beneath all the glam.

“This is murder. Didn’t your grandparents think back then…”

Her voice paused and she didn’t continue.

Jiang Yanshen understood what she meant and laughed self-deprecatingly. “The eldest son is already dead. They won’t want to see the youngest son die as well. Moreover, if this matter gets out, it will ultimately be a shameful scandal for the Jiang family.”

“Then why this time?” Lin Qingqian asked in confusion.

Jiang Yanshen’s eyes were slightly cold as he said indifferently, “Grandma is old.’

When one was old, their hearts would soften.

She had experienced the pain of losing her son back then. Now, she wanted to take a few glances at her youngest son before she left.

Lin Qingqian finally understood why he hated Jiang Chongjing so much and didn’t even hide his emotions.

No wonder when he found out that Jiang Chongjing was back, he couldn’t help but need to see his psychiatrist.

If his father hadn’t died back then, perhaps he wouldn’t be like this today.

At the same time, her heart ached, and she couldn’t help but worry. Jiang

Chongjing could be so ruthless to his own brother, let alone Jiang Yanshen…

Jiang Yanshen raised his warm palm and covered her eyes. His voice was low and hoarse. “Don’t look at me like that. Although you care about me, and this makes me very happy.”

But please don’t look at me with such worried eyes..
