The Domineering Chief Dotes on His Wife

Chapter 564: I want to protect her, but I always seem to hurt her...

Lin Yehua left after he finished speaking, and Lu Jingshen stood there. His face was heavy and his eyes were deep with a hint of sadness.

When returning to the company, Qiao Fei was driving the car and Lu Jingshen was sitting in the back, his mood was obviously depressed.

Until now, Lin Yehua’s words are still repeating in his mind.

Recalling some things, last year, due to the effect of anesthesia, Lin Jiaran said something to him when she was in a fuzzy state of consciousness...

His brows were gradually stained with sadness and sentimentality...

There was an eight-year age gap between them, and they had known each other for many years. He didn't know how long he had liked her, but he knew it had been a long time. They had only been together for about two and a half years, and they had not gotten along well in those two years, and a lot of things had happened.

His careful consideration, considering that she was still young, would inevitably hurt her once he started. The misunderstanding made him give up on her and let her pursue what she wanted. His indifference towards her, no matter how she tried to keep him, he never gave her a way out. He clearly wanted to protect her, but he always seemed to hurt her...

"I have some urgent matters to deal with at the company. Where are you going? I'll take you there first." Shen Jiayi asked after answering the phone.

"If you're busy, I can just take a taxi myself."

"There are still two hours left."

"Then hold it for me first, I'll make a call."

Lin Jiaran handed the five dolls she was holding to Shen Jiayi to hold for her first, then took out her cell phone from her bag and called Lu Jingshen.

Shen Jiayi held the doll for Lin Jiaran with one hand, with one finger pierced through each.

Lu Jingshen had just arrived at the company. When he was taking the elevator, the cell phone in his pocket rang. He took it out and the other party hung up before he answered it.

I called back, but there was only a mechanical tone saying, "Sorry, the number you dialed is unavailable at the moment!"

Lu Jingshen's expression turned serious.

Lin Jiaran's call had just been connected, and her phone had 2% battery left. If the phone died, it would shut down in 30 seconds.

Lin Jiaran was traveling with Shen Jiayi. Lin Jiaran's phone could not be reached, so Lu Jingshen immediately called Shen Jiayi.

"Her phone is out of battery and turned off!" Shen Jiayi said and handed the phone to Lin Jiaran.

After the call, Lin Jiaran returned the phone to Shen Jiayi and took her doll back.

After sending Lin Jiaran to Shengshi, Shen Jiayi drove away.

Anna came to the company to find Lu Jingchuan, but was told by the front desk that Lu Jingchuan was not in the company. Lin Jiaran walked into the company and met Anna walking towards her.

Anna is also a beauty with a look and figure that match her. Her makeup is delicate and charming, her long curly hair is loose, and she carries a brand-name bag on her wrist. Her plump curves are faintly visible under her gorgeous clothes. She wears a pair of high heels, and her slender waist sways like a willow branch when she twists.

Lin Jiaran looked at Anna who was walking towards her and cast an admiring gaze at her. Although this Anna did not leave a good impression on her, it was undeniable that Anna was indeed a colorful beauty with an enchanting beauty that made her unable to help but take a few more glances.

Although she was pretty, Lin Jiaran had no intention of saying hello to Anna. When she was about to pass by her, Lin Jiaran looked in the direction she was going.

Seeing Lin Jiaran, Anna also looked at her carefully with admiration in her eyes. Lin Jiaran was not adorned with too much rouge and powder, but she exuded a natural and pure beauty. Her temperament was fresh and refined, as if she was not of this world. Her beauty did not need gorgeous makeup to embellish it. Her simplicity and innocence were unforgettable.

In Anna's opinion, girls like Lin Jiaran are particularly attractive to men, and her tall figure is one in a million. It is no wonder that Lu Jingchuan wants to keep her as his special one even though he is having affairs with other women outside.

Knowing that Lin Jiaran had no intention of greeting her, Anna took the initiative and stood there waiting for Lin Jiaran to approach, then she walked around in front of Lin Jiaran.

"Where is Lu Jingchuan?" Anna asked directly.

"How would I know where he is?"

Anna's lips curled up slightly, with her arms raised, looking at Lin Jiaran levelly, "I already know what your relationship with Lu Jingchuan is!"

Lin Jiaran turned sideways and looked at Anna indifferently, "What's the relationship between me and Lu Jingchuan? It seems to have nothing to do with you!"

"It's impossible that you don't know where Lu Jingchuan is!"

"Since you know all this, why are you asking me? Even if I knew, I certainly wouldn't tell you!"

When Shen Jiayi left, he called Lu Jingshen and told him that he had sent the person to the company and that he was leaving first because he had something urgent to deal with.

After answering the phone, Lu Jingshen took the elevator downstairs.

Lu Jingshen saw Lin Jiaran talking to Anna when he came down. His brows were slightly frowned. He had been busy with company matters recently and Lu Jingchuan had been on leave. He had no time to find out what was going on with Lu Jingchuan and whether he was really sick.

Seeing Lu Jingshen appear, Anna did not continue talking to Lin Jiaran.

Anna left, and before Lin Jiaran could turn around, a pair of strong arms wrapped around her shoulders. She quickly turned around and realized why Anna suddenly stopped talking to her. It turned out that she saw Lu Jingshen.

"What was that woman saying to you?" Lu Jingshen's voice was low and gentle. He put his arm around Lin Jiaran's shoulders, led her to turn half a circle, and walked towards the elevator.

"Ask me if I know where Lu Jingchuan is."

"Are you still not off work at this hour?"

"I'm off work, and my car is parked in the parking lot downstairs."

Lu Jingshen hugged Lin Jiaran, and Lin Jiaran let him hug her. She also took off her bag and gave it to Lu Jingshen to carry.

There were five dolls hanging on the bag, and Lin Jiaran showed off that they were the ones she had caught from the claw machine.

Lu Jingshen listened patiently to Mrs. Lu's mumblings. His expression was gentle and he could not hide his joy. Although it was not a big deal, he was very happy that Mrs. Lu could share the little details with him. This was how they got along in the past.

After entering the elevator and the door closed, Lu Jingshen leaned over slightly and left a loving kiss on Lin Jiaran's cheek.

After walking out of the elevator, Lu Jingshen took Lin Jiaran's small hand with his big hand, "Why are your hands so cold?"

Feeling that the little hand he was holding was very cold, Lu Jingshen let go of Lin Jiaran's hand and hugged her tightly in his arms.

Lin Jiaran touched her face with her right hand and said, "Where is it cold? It's obviously your hand that is too hot!"

"Is it hot? Why don't I feel it?"

The two of them walked slowly towards the parking lot, talking to each other, with only each other in their eyes...
