Chapter 448 - Jiang Rui and Another Woman (1/2)
The Old Master in the Lu family died.
It was said that he fell down from the stairs accidentally and broke his neck.
Jiang Rui went to the funeral with Bear. Lu Tao knelt down in the mourning hall and his second and third uncles were pointing and scolding him.
“If you hadn’t annoyed him, why would he have fallen down from the stairs? You caused your grandpa’s death. Such a bastard like you doesn’t belong to the Lu family.”
Lu Tao wanted to explain but then he suddenly saw Jiang Rui. So he stood up hurriedly, “Officer Jiang, you are here.”
The second and third son in the Lu family immediately pointed their “guns” against Jiang Rui, “Who let you come? My father can’t take your mourning.”
Both of his sons’ deaths were related to Jiang Rui. Though there was no evidence, they already blamed Jiang Rui for it.
“We don’t stand for ourselves.” Bear took a look at him and passed the incenses to Jiang Rui.
The guys from the Lu family stopped speaking. Since they didn’t stand for themselves, then they stood for the military force. It was respect given to the Lu family. So even if they hated it, they had to accept.
“Don’t be too sad.” Jiang Rui said and turned to leave.
The two men still wanted to say something more but Lu Tao whispered to them, “Uncles, if you want to revenge, you should follow my words.”
Bear drove Jiang Rui away.
“Master, what do you think…”
Jiang Rui looked to the ad sign by the road. It was an advertisement for diamond rings. He suddenly remembered that he had never put a ring on Chen Chen’s fingers. He hadn’t even proposed.
Bear didn’t know he was absent-minded and still mumbled, “In my opinion, Lu Tao benefits the most no matter whether he is related to the old man’s death. He is the only one left in the third generation of the Lu family. The second son in the Lu family just wants the assets. I guess even the shareholders will stand by Lu Tao’s side.”
He finished the words for quite a while and saw Jiang Rui still looking through the window, “Master?”
“I heard you.” Jiang Rui looked back, “Lu Tao is so greedy that he won’t let his uncles stay in the company. Later, he will have a way to drive them away. Or he may… just kill them.”
Bear said angrily, “That guy has killed several people.”
“That’s right!” Jiang Rui smiled, “So, we must stop it.”
Chen Chen was very surprised when she knew it. Then she continued to think about it and seemed confused.
Ah Zi glanced at her, “What’s wrong? Your God of War didn’t feed you enough recently?”
“You don’t know!” Chen Chen said mysteriously, “Brother Xiao Rui is weird recently. He stares at me for no reason. But when I look at him, he’ll change the direction of his sight.”
“Are you too sensitive because of your period?”
Chen Chen said seriously, “I’m not too sensitive. It is true.”
Ah Zi stared at her, “From a psychology perspective, this kind of behavior shows that the man may have done something unfaithful to the woman.”
“What… ” Chen Chen asked foolishly.
“Cheating!” Ah Zi rolled the eyes at her, “He feels sorry to his girlfriend because he has done something unspeakable with another woman. But he doesn’t know how to deal with it, so he has such strange behaviors.”
Chen Chen blinked, “You mean, Brother Xiao Rui has another woman?”
“You’re so silly. What do you think I’m talking about?” Ah Zi poked on her head.
“It’s impossible!” Chen Chen pushed back her hand, “Brother Xiao Rui said he loved me!” Chen Chen flushed and smiled, “He never lies.”
Ah Zi nodded, “You’re right. The God of War is not that type. You should stop thinking about it. Maybe he has some problems in the troops recently. You can’t help him. So just live well!”
“You’re so annoying.” Chen Chen angrily stared at her, “I’m going back.”
Ah Zi stopped her, “You don’t wait for your husband to pick you up?”
“Nope!” Chen Chen waved her hand and ran out from the store.
She didn’t go back home directly. Instead, she took a taxi to a supermarket.
“Since Brother Xiao Rui is not in a good mood, I should cook a meal for him!” Chen Chen mumbled, “He always cooks for me. Last time, I learnt a few dishes from Mum. Now it’s my turn to give him a surprise.”
Just thinking about it, she couldn’t hold her smiles. Then she accidentally looked at the other side of the road and was stunned.
Jiang Rui went to the store to pick her up but was told by Ah Zi that Chen Chen left earlier. He quickly drove back home and bought Chen Chen’s favorite ice cream cake on the road. On arriving home, he saw Tuan Zi bending down on the table.
“Dad!” Tuan Zi saw Jiang Rui and ran to him, “Mum is cooking today!”
Jiang Rui surprisedly looked to the kitchen and Chen Chen walked out with a bowl of soup in her hands. He hurriedly walked up to take it over, “Who let you cook? What if you get burned?”
“I’m not a child and won’t get hurt so easily.” Chen Chen smiled, “I learnt it back home from my mother on the New Year. You should get your hands washed and change your clothes now. Then you can have a taste!”
Jiang Rui gently looked at her and touched Chen Chen’s face, “Okay, the food Liuliu cooked must be delicious!”
Tuan Zi saw her dad entering the room and then said in a low voice, “Mum, did you kill the guy who sold salt?”
“Ah? What?” Chen Chen sat by the table.
“It’s so salty.” Tuan Zi pointed at the tray of pork ribs.
Chen Chen took up the chopsticks, “It’s impossible. I made sweet and sour spareribs!”
“Puff!” She spat out the rib, “Ah, too salty.”
Tuan Zi passed her a glass of water, “Mum, you must have mistaken the salt for sugar.”
“Throw it into the dustbin!” She had no time to drink. Instead, she took up the dish and ran to the kitchen.
