BXBX NOVEL Chapter 594 Security
The Villain’s Wife 594 Security
A few days later, the constructions at the mansion concluded. With all the unconventional changes that Zhou Jingren made, one could say that the mansion is now the most secure house at The Peak.
"It’s been raining lately," Lily said, almost lazily. She looked at the view from the balcony. She smiled at the rain-soaked ground and the thousands of liquid orbs falling from the black clouds above.
"It’s cold here. Why don’t we go inside?" he uttered. He glanced at Lily’s satisfied smile. Slowly, his gaze shifted towards the greeneries bathing at the oblivious rain. He tilted his head towards the sky. "This rain won’t stop anytime soon. We should go inside." He said.
"Hm." Lily nodded. "I don’t want to leave the bed today. But you have a meeting and I already said that I will come with you."
"You can always stay here."
"It’s alright. I would rather be with you in this kind of weather." She eyed his gentle eyes. "A king-size bed without you is just... a bed." She watched as his lips tugged upwards into a silly grin.
"Do you want some milk tea?" he asked, amusement flashed in his eyes.
"Not in this weather. No... I would rather have you."
She watched as a tinge of scarlet started to spread in Zhou Jingren’s neck. Lily smiled. "You know that we got married in June, right? But... we never really celebrated our anniversary. I want a celebration!"
"On our anniversary... you fainted, and we discovered that you were pregnant. I was supposed to surprise you for a trip to Japan for a wedding photo."
"I know." She beamed. "Jichen told me."
"He did? I told him not to tell anyone that I rescheduled to trip!" he lifted an eyebrow before he pursed his lips and nodded. "I guess... he forgot that I am still his boss. I should probably remind him that he is still working for me."
In response, Lily laughed. "Don’t scold him. It was Yang Mi to who told me. She said she ’accidentally’ saw your schedule in Go Jichen’s tablet. Of course... we know that Jichen is not the type that would allow someone to see your schedule, right?" Lily winked. "I think... the ship is sailing."
"I told you I am the best matchmaker." He gave a smug smile before he leaned down to kiss her. "Let’s not involve ourselves in their matter. Jichen is secretive and shy. I don’t want him to think that we are trying to play with their emotions."
"But... that is what you are doing. Manipulating them behind the scenes."
"Of course. I know they are meant to be together. Just like how I know that you are meant for me."
Lily held her hand in front of Zhou Jingren’s face. "That is enough cringe for today!" she uttered, her eyes wide. "You have a meeting in two hours. We should go."
Seeing this, Zhou Jingren chuckled and carried his wife inside their room.
After a few minutes, Lily and Zhou Jingren left the mansion with their bodyguards and Secretary Go.
"When is your next doctor’s appointment?" Zhou Jingren asked as he eyed Lily. He watched as his wife stared at the pitter-patter of the rain against their windshield.
"Three days from now," Lily answered. "I think I was scheduled for another blood test."
"Then I will accompany you. How about that dinner with Qin Chuan?"
"Oh... he is coming next week. He said he is planning to introduce us to someone. Must be a business partner."
"His company is doing good. Your father is a talented businessman."
"Hm. I also think he will ask Qin Yuanfeng to work for him. He must have heard that he is working for the Facci Group." Lily said. Qi Yuanfeng is an asset that few companies have. Any businessman would always want someone like him.
"Are you going to let him go?"
"You can ask him." Lily shrugged. "If he wanted to leave, then there is no reason enough to convince him to stay. He will only find ways to leave. Plus, he is an adult. He should know which company will benefit him the most."
"You seemed really confident that he won’t leave?"
Lily chuckled in response. Her eyes were still on the windshield. "Qin Yuanfeng admires you. There is no way that he will leave." Lily could see that Qin Yuanfeng respected Zhou Jingren. "You are the elder brother that he never had." She continued.
"Then we should let him decide." Zhou Jingren said. "Your father should also know that what he did before is not something that someone like Yuanfeng could easily forget. You should probably talk to Qin Chuan about this."
"Nah." She smiled. "Let Qin Yuanfeng deal with his emotions like a mature human being. He is already in his late twenties. Once he takes over the company, he will become the CEO of a conglomerate. I would not want him to become one of those cold CEO with something in their brains. A mature human who can’t handle their emotions like a man."
"What are you talking about?" Zhou Jingren laughed and shook his head. He then shifted his gaze towards their driver. "What is going on?" he asked when he felt the car came to a stop. Not long after, his phone rung. Seeing it was Secretary Go, he instantly answered it.
"What happened?"
"President it was an accident. Because of the rain, we didn’t see the car coming out of the driveway. It was a small one. I will deal with it."
"Go ahead. Just give them our card. There is no need to prolong the matter." Zhou Jingren ended the call. For security reasons, Zhou Jingren and Lily are using two cars at the same time.
One car is for Secretary Go and one guard while the other is for Zhou Jingren and Lily with another driver. Zhou Jingren also rode in different cars every day. Since he wanted to keep Lily secured, he decided to go all out and make sure that no one would be able to predict the car that they are riding for the day.
However, after a few minutes, he received another call from Go Jichen. "Is it done?" he asked.
