Chapter 457 - Jiang Rui Killed Someone

Once Jiang Rui had dinner with some government officers and was then arranged to rest in a hotel room. Zhou Yiyun was lying naked on the bed at that time, stubbornly looking at Jiang Rui with tears running down her face.

But Jiang Rui only took a look at her and left in stride.

“After Chief Jiang left, Scar came in.” Zhou Yiyun said with a self-deprecating smile, “He said that I could stay until dawn, and asked me to keep my mouth shut.”

Chen Chen sighed. “It seems that Scar gave you a bad first impression! Is that why you turned him down?”

“No.” Zhou Yiyun shook her head. “It’s my own problem.” She asked Chen Chen, “If a man saw you in an extremely awkward position, will you develop a romantic relationship with him?”

After hearing that, Chen Chen finally understood what Zhou Yiyun meant.

She felt self-abased…

“But that’s all over!” Chen Chen felt it was a pity. Zhou Yiyun also liked Scar. It was not fair for both of them to give up a romantic relationship.

Zhou Yiyun lowered her head, apparently reluctant to go on with the topic.

Chen Chen had no choice but to ask again if the wound on her arm still hurt, and told her that Hua Tuo was making up a prescription. When the cut on her face scarred, the medicine could be put into use.

“You can rest assured that I will not allow any scar to remain on your face!” Chen Chen held her hand. “You just need to take care of yourself. When you recover, let’s go shopping and eat out together!”

When she left, Chen Chen saw Scar frustratedly standing in the corner.

“Did you hear what she said?”

Scar nodded.

“What are you going to do? Give up?”

“No,” Scar said firmly, “Mrs. Jiang, I love her. It’s real!”

Chen Chen curled her lip. “Why so suddenly? Didn’t you say it was impossible before?”

“Mrs. Jiang…” Scar looked at her eagerly. “You’ve heard us, haven’t you? I really like her.”

“What about her past?” Chen Chen asked, “Do you mind it? Do you detest it?”

Scar said in frustration, “I only hate not being with her at that time. If I liked her earlier, I wouldn’t have allowed for her to be bullied.”

“It’s your destiny.” Chen Chen sighed, then saying excitedly, “It’s not late! Marry her and be nice to her. I believe that she will soon forget the past.”

“I will!” Scar said with a smile, “In this regard, I am much better than Boss. Since he could get you, I… Haha!”

“Okay!” Chen Chen patted him on the shoulder. “Come on. Women can be easily touched. Besides, she doesn’t dislike you. Maybe she will soon agree!”

The news that Scar could be with Zhou Yiyun left Chen Chen in a particularly good mood. When Jiang Rui returned home in the evening, she kept talking about it.

“Tell me how many women have you seen on the bed?” Seeing the man may not be serious enough when discussing this with her, Chen Chen angrily pinched his neck and asked.

Jiang Rui saw her get angry, taking her upon his lap and saying with a smile, “I knew it! Scar called me this afternoon.”

“Asking for your instructions about his romantic relationship?”

“He just told me about that.” Jiang Rui lifted the gauze on her face and felt relieved on seeing a thin scar. “Don’t touch it with your hands.”

Chen Chen nodded perfunctorily. “I get it! I get it!”

Jiang Rui kissed her mouth, picked her up, and walked to the bedroom. Chen Chen tried to struggle. “No… Tuan Zi hasn’t returned yet!”

“It’s the weekend. Xie Hong took her to the mountains for fun. They will come back on Sunday.”

Chen Chen’s struggling was ruthlessly suppressed. She couldn’t have a break until midnight. When she was almost falling asleep, she heard him say, “The exercise will be over next week. Tuan Zi will also have a summer vacation. Where do you want to go?”

“I’m so sleepy…” Chen Chen gave him a hit.

“Well, let’s sleep!” Jiang Rui grabbed his woman’s arm, took a few bites, and fell asleep with her in his arms.

On the day when the military exercise ended, the first prize would be given to the best army. Even Scar couldn’t be absent, so Chen Chen went to the hospital to stay with Zhou Yiyun early in the morning.

“It’s said that Chief Jiang’s army will get the first prize again!”

Chen Chen nodded proudly. “Of course! However, in Jiang Rui’s army, Scar’s soldiers used to get the first prize in the previous years, but it’s Bear’s soldiers who won the first prize this year.” After saying it, she winked at Zhou Yiyun.

“I delayed his work.” Zhou Yiyun said while embarrassed, “Is it regarded as military merits?”

“Bah. This kind of award is useless.” Ah Zi didn’t go to the shop that day, and went to discuss about that with them. “Bear said that arresting terrorists and thugs could be regarded as military merits. The award is just a kind of internal recognition.”

Zhou Yiyun said with a lingering fear, “That’s why it’s said that one may sacrifice his life to achieve military merits.”

All three women were busy chatting. Not long after, it was noon. Ah Zi yawned and stood up. “What do you want to eat? I’m going to order takeout.”

Her phone rang as soon as she finished her words.

“Hello, Bear, is the commendation conference over? Come pick us up for dinner.”

“What?” Ah Zi’s facial expressions changed. “Okay, I know.”

Chen Chen and Zhou Yiyun both saw that there was something wrong with her look.

“What happened?”

Ah Zi stared at Chen Chen, seeming to be in a dilemma. Chen Chen’s heart suddenly sank. “What happened to Brother Xiao Rui?”

“Jiang Rui is locked up.” Ah Zi finished her words, and saw Chen Chen’s face turned pale, quickly saying, “Listen to me!”

That morning, after Jiang Rui had just received the medal, the special investigation team arrived. The leader was Bai Ziqi.

“Chief Jiang…” There was something strange in his expressions.

Jiang Rui asked indifferently, “Came for me?”

“The Lu family accused you of murder.” Bai Ziqi looked at him and said, “They report that you killed the Lu brothers.”

“OK.” Jiang Rui was still expressionless. “Let’s go.”

Bai Ziqi couldn’t help but stop him. “Chief Jiang, you…”

“I’m just being asked to assist in the investigation, right?” Jiang Rui glanced at him. “I didn’t kill anyone. Why should I be afraid?”

After hearing his words, Bai Ziqi was relieved and nodded at Bear, Xiao Si and Scar. “Don’t worry. I will take care of him.”

When they went far away, Xiao Si said to Scar, “You didn’t waste your time in saving Bai Ziqi.”

“Haha, after waiting so long, I thought that Lu Tao wouldn’t take any action.” Scar sneered. “He deliberately chose to take action in such an occasion.”

“What about Mrs. Jiang? Do you want to hide the truth from her?”

Bear waved his hand. “We can’t hide the truth from her. I’m afraid that it will be reported on TV later.”

“Yeah!” Scar nodded. “Why wouldn’t Lu Tao take advantage of such a good opportunity?”

After hearing Ah Zi’s words, Chen Chen still doubted. “Bear said that they had planned ahead? Really?”

“Ah, you’ve asked me about that many times.” Ah Zi impatiently gnawed the chicken feet. “The God of War has prepared himself for the incident early. Otherwise, he would have caused trouble to the Lu family when you suffered a lot last time.”

Zhou Yiyun also comforted her. “Chief Jiang is so powerful that nothing will happen to him.”

As soon as they finished speaking, the news was reported on TV that a high-ranking official in the military was suspected of murder and had been taken away for further investigation. The picture showed that Jiang Rui was being taken into the car.

“No, I’m going to see him!” Chen Chen stood up suddenly.

Ah Zi pulled her back. “You will make a mess there.”

Chen Chen’s phone rang, and Ah Zi glanced at the number. “Come on. It’s your uncle.”

“Liuliu.” Jiang Qianren said over the other side of the call, “You already know, right?”

“Will Brother Xiao Rui be OK?” Chen Chen asked, “I can ask my dad for help.”

Jiang Qianren hurriedly said, “He’s okay. You don’t need to worry about him. Xiao Rui has planned everything ahead. Just wait and see!”

“Humph. He hides his plans from me every time.” Chen Chen was a little angry. “Why didn’t he remind me earlier? Everyone but me knows about it.”

“Well, Xiao Rui fears that you would indulge in flights of fancy after you learn of it!” Jiang Qianren spent much time on calming her before hanging up.

Ah Zi sat her down. “You can be at ease now!”

“Humph. I won’t talk to him anymore.” Chen Chen rolled her eyes.

Zhou Yiyun chuckled beside her. “You don’t know how happy you are, and many women are envious of you.”

Chen Chen refrained from smiling, and Ah Zi poked her face. “You look so complacent now. Remember that you must sleep alone tonight.”

“That will be great,” Chen Chen said to herself, “Otherwise he will wear me out tonight”. In front of others, Chief Jiang was indifferent, while he became a predator in bed!

“Hey, did you know that your dad has been arrested?” Tuan Zi was about to step out of the classroom when she was stopped by a little girl.

She didn’t even look at her and went out directly. Wen Zeyu was waiting at the door of the classroom. When he saw Tuan Zi come out, he quickly reached out his hand and said, “Tuan Zi, let’s go to my house today. Your father called.”

“Wen Zeyu!” The little girl blushed when she saw him. “Why do you still play with her? Her father has been arrested.”

“You skank, stay away from me.” Wen Zeyu pulled Tuan Zi back in disgust.

The little girl curled her lip and was about to cry. “Why… Why do you treat me like this?”

“Do you really think I don’t know you always talk bad about Tuan Zi behind her back? If Tuan Zi hadn’t stopped me, I would have fixed you earlier.” Wen Zeyu looked very serious and sullen. Probably because of interacting with Tuan Zi for a long time, he didn’t look like a more than eight-year-old child.

Tuan Zi dragged him away. “Let’s go!”

“Okay!” Instantly, Wen Zeyu said flatteringly, “You said you wanted to eat matsutake dishes before. Mom specially prepared them for you today.”

“Good! You were pretty good just now. You start to behave like Uncle Wen.”

“Tuan Zi, you can rest assured that I will be more handsome than my dad in the future…”

The little girl behind them burst into tears. The teacher saw the story from beginning to end, not caring about her at all, turning around and ignoring her.

Chen Chen couldn’t sleep at night. Even if they said Jiang Rui was fine, she was still worried.

The cell phone suddenly rang. Chen Chen picked it up with her eyes lighting up.

“Brother Xiao Rui!” She cried as soon as she spoke.

Jiang Rui was startled. “Liuliu? Didn’t Uncle call you?”

“Yes… Yes… But… But I’m still worried… Ohh…” Chen Chen sobbed. “Brother Xiao Rui, when will you come back?”

“Liuliu, I’m sorry!” Jiang Rui felt so sorry for her. “I didn’t tell you earlier, because I was afraid that you might be worried. I will return on the day of the trial. It’s a few days later.”

Chen Chen was stunned. “Trial? Will you be sentenced?”

“No.” Jiang Rui heard that she was about to cry again, saying quickly, “It’s a long story. Do you want to hear it?”

“Sure!” Chen Chen sniffed. “You have to tell me about your plan in advance. Otherwise, I’ll ignore you.”

Jiang Rui said with a smile, “Okay, I will tell you everything in the future.”
