Chapter 1123 Guessed
At this moment, a storm began to stir in Lu Xi's brain, and he couldn't help but think of the injuries on Chen Jiani's body.
Her sister also has some old scars on her body, which were left by torture. Chen Jiani does not have a boyfriend, and her father Chen Jianghe would never commit domestic violence, so the scars on her body were most likely caused by bullying or imprisonment and abuse.
Thinking of this, she was more inclined to believe that Chen Jiani's approach to Fu Nanzhou was a honey trap used by her competitor.
Fu Nanzhou was flustered by Lu Xi's silence and hurried to explain, "Wife, let me explain to you. The situation was urgent at the time. If I hadn't saved her, Chen Jiani would have died.
"I pulled her, but she didn't stand firmly and hugged my waist. Her face hit my chest. It wasn't what you thought. I quickly pushed her away."
Fu Nanzhou was obviously not as calm as usual. It was not because he felt guilty, but because he was worried that his wife would be angry. While he was talking, he used actions to simulate the situation at that time, for fear that Lu Xi would not believe him.
Lu Xi looked at him and couldn't help but smile, but immediately frowned again, "Really?"
Fu Nanzhou raised his finger seriously, "I swear to heaven, if I tell a lie, I, Fu Nanzhou, am willing for thunder to strike..."
Before he could finish, Lu Xi covered his mouth with her hand and glared at him in feigned anger, "Can't you say something auspicious?"
"I'm not afraid, because I have a clear conscience." Fu Nanzhou's eyes were burning. In the past twenty-nine years, he had never thought that one day he would make such a naive oath just to prove his innocence.
"Hmph, I believe you. Okay, go ahead and wash it."
Lu Xi wanted to leave, but Fu Nanzhou wrapped his arms around her delicate body, his dark eyes filled with a burning sensation.
Lu Xi's heartbeat quickened, she lowered her beautiful eyes, and her voice became light, "What?"
"You know." Fu Nanzhou's throat was dry and he couldn't help rolling his Adam's apple.
Lu Xi played dumb, "I don't know, I'm going out."
"Wife, you're already wet anyway." Fu Nanzhou put his arms around her waist, his handsome face full of deep affection and seduction.
Lu Xi's cheeks flushed instantly, "Go away, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"I'm talking about the clothes you're wearing, what are you thinking about?" Fu Nanzhou laughed.
Lu Xi's face instantly turned red like an apple. "I didn't say anything else. Stop telling me these nonsense."
She was somewhat ashamed and angry, and then she felt her wrist getting hot, and someone gently pulled her under the shower. The hot water fell on her body, and the wet and hot feeling seemed to penetrate her skin and flow along every inch of her skin.
Lu Xi wiped the water off her face and was about to say something when her body was gently pressed against the wall. The man's hot body pressed down on her, and her heart beat like thunder instantly. "Don't make trouble, the baby will come later..."
"Mom and Aunt Liu are watching over us. They don't need us for the time being, so we can just... indulge ourselves a little..."
Fu Nanzhou kissed her as he spoke, his soft and moist lips slowly taking away Lu Xi's rationality.
This man is really, she wants to talk about Chen Jiani...
An hour later.
Lu Xi came out of the bathroom with a shower cap on her head and a bath towel wrapped around her body.
Sitting in front of the dressing table, she scooped out a little eye cream and applied it on the corners of her eyes. She thought of Chen Jiani again and paused.
After completing basic skin care, Lu Xi replied to Chen Jiani with three words: I’ll help you.
If Chen Jiani was really instructed by someone, we would have to follow the clues to get to the bottom of it.
When Fu Nanzhou came out, Lu Xi immediately brought up the matter.
Fu Nanzhou couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, full of confusion, "Let Chen Jiani replace Fang Min?"
"Yes. Didn't Sister Xiaomin have a car accident? I just asked about it. She was seriously injured and needs to rest for a long time." Lu Xi looked back at him while applying facial cream on her neck.
Fu Nanzhou shook his head. "Even if Secretary Fang is not here, the group's secretarial department has plenty of people. Chen Jiani is not suitable. After all, she is a secretary and handles the company's confidential documents. I can't use a stranger who I don't know at all.
"And she is definitely not as capable as Fang Min. She has no way of doing Fang Min's job. She has no experience working in a large company. She can't even get past HR, let alone enter the secretarial department directly."
"Hubby~" Lu Xi suddenly begged coquettishly, "I must have my reasons for doing this, just agree to it, okay?"
Men can't stand women acting like spoiled brats, especially the woman they love. Lu Xi's "husband" made Fu Nanzhou's heart tingle, and his voice became hoarse, "Do you really want to help her?"
He has never liked using backdoors or connections, but there are always exceptions, and his wife is one of them.
"I don't want to help her, but to help you." Lu Xi's eyes were burning.
Fu Nanzhou's throat shook with laughter. Without stopping to wipe his hair, he teased, "That Chen Jiani is so capable? Being my secretary means you are helping me?"
Lu Xi glared at him, pulled off his towel and placed it on the dressing table, then pressed the man onto the dressing stool where she had just sat. Through the dressing mirror, she looked at her husband meaningfully, "Chen Jiani offered to be your secretary."
"Hmm?" Fu Nanzhou's smile disappeared, and the black eyes in the mirror projected two cold rays of light.
"Mr. Fu, do you understand now? Chen Jiani is trying to get close to me. Do you think it's possible that there is no one behind me?"
Fu Nanzhou was stunned, then he pulled Lu Xi onto his lap and asked, "Didn't you ask Ding Yu to give her five million?"
Lu Xi was stunned at first, then immediately shook her head, "No! I know that I can only help her in times of emergency, not in poverty, and I can't possibly give her so much money, not to mention that Chen Qi has betrayed you. Moreover, even if I give her money, I will definitely not let Brother Ding go. I will definitely go by myself. Chen Jiani has a strong sense of self-esteem. If I let Brother Ding go to give her the money, she might think I am humiliating her."
Fu Nanzhou's face darkened, and he suddenly recalled the scene at Chen Jianghe's house. "Tonight there was a killer who tried to kill Chen Jiang. Chen Jianghe thought it was someone I sent, and begged me not to kill him."
Lu Xi narrowed her eyes slightly. Five million, Rong Jin's car accident, the killer...
These words kept hitting her brain. She suddenly widened her eyes and hugged Fu Nanzhou's neck, "I know! Someone must have pretended to be Brother Ding and tried to frame you! My sister's car accident was probably not an accident. Someone pretended to be Brother Ding and bribed Chen Jianghe with five million to kill Rong Jin. After the incident was exposed, the other party was furious and sent assassins to kill her!
"Chen Jianghe has always thought that you gave him money, so he is afraid of you. Please let him go! And the other party must know about Chen Qi and use Chen Qi to threaten Chen Jianghe!"
Fu Nanzhou's face was solemn. "That makes a lot more sense. Chen Jianghe's reaction and Chen Jiani's desire to join Fu's may all be related to the person behind the scenes. That person..."
He deliberately didn't finish his words, but Lu Xi had actually guessed it.
Chen Qi is Hao Teng's man, but Hao Teng can't kill Rong Jin. Rong Jin's identity is still unknown to very few people, so there is no way to kill him. Rong Jin can threaten...
