Chapter 700: Lucky or Unlucky?
"Zhou Yichen, calm down!"
A cold and indifferent voice rang in his ears, as if it resonated through his body, mind and brain, instantly pulling Zhou Yichen out of his endless negative emotions.
He took a few deep breaths, and when he looked at Chu Xin, he showed a rare vulnerability. "Thank you."
Chu Xin calmly looked back at him and said quickly in a low voice, "Everyone has complexities. Don't think about why this person would do this. You only know that he did hurt you, so you have a reason to deal with him."
He's high-ranking now and has powerful backers, so he's hard to bring down. If you can be patient, then wait. If you really can't wait, we'll find a time to settle things..."
As she spoke, the girl made a ruthless gesture by cutting her neck with her hand.
Zhou Yichen: ...
He didn't feel anything when he had murderous thoughts, so why did Chu Xin's action immediately remind him of outlaws?
In other people's relationships, most would cry and plead with them not to act impulsively, or even try to smooth things over. But Chu Xin is always different. Not only does she not advise you, she actively helps you cut your throat.
Zhou Yichen thought, "There must be only one special girl like this in the world, right?"
Is having someone like her a blessing or a curse?
After thinking about it for a moment, Zhou Yichen realized he was really crazy; he was so moved that he wanted to hug Chu Xin.
The two men deliberately distanced themselves from Lu Jianshe while talking, but he remained calm and waited there when he reached the stairwell with his guards.
Only when the two people got closer did he glance over. "You two aren't whispering about me, are you?"
Chu Xin gave a fake smile: You guessed right.
Zhou Yichen had regained his composure after being swayed by Chu Xin's bold and direct suggestion to "help." He was much calmer when facing Lu Jianshe, unable to greet him with a smile but certainly not with murderous intent.
He asked in a very calm tone, "Does Chief Lu suffer from paranoia?"
Lu Jianshe felt that Zhou Yichen was doing it on purpose, deliberately trying to make him feel bad by being sarcastic.
His eyes narrowed suddenly, concealing a fleeting murderous intent. "If that's what you think, then that's probably it!"
Isn't the current miserable state of the Lu family the result of the Zhou family's actions?
The two exchanged witty remarks, neither gaining the upper hand. Chu Xin found it all rather pointless, while the bodyguard who had been following Lu Jianshe was sweating profusely, even wondering if he should move further away and not get so close to his leader.
He could clearly sense a hostile atmosphere between the leader and this comrade surnamed Zhou. Logically, as a bodyguard, he should be the first to protect him on the front line.
But whether it was his imagination or not, a large part of that inexplicable malice came from his superiors, which left him somewhat at a loss.
Is the boss unhappy because he was followed today but didn't catch the culprit?
But you can't blame it on other units, can you?
The guard stood there, seemingly lost in thought, his eyes darting back and forth between Lu Jianshe and Zhou Yichen, making Chu Xin want to laugh.
I never expected that someone like Lu Jianshe would have such a straightforward bodyguard. Could it be that he found someone to complement him because he is too gloomy?
Zhou Yichen already had the answer in his heart, and he was too lazy to say anything more to test the waters. He took the initiative to walk up the steps and lead the way.
“The wards upstairs are occupied by our own comrades. If the leader is worried, he can go and see for himself.”
