Chapter 349 - Don’t Stay Here, It Won’t Be Good
Chapter 349: Don’t Stay Here, It Won’t Be Good
The three of them were stunned.
Yan Zihao expressionlessly praised Jiaren Wu. “Miss Wu is quite funny.” He flipped open Jiaren Wu’s file and quickly read through it before saying, “Two days ago, you were a famous police officer.”
Jiaren Wu’s gaze changed, and her expression became somewhat embarrassed.
She gritted her teeth and nodded. “Yes.”
“You were expelled from the group because you publicly beat someone up and lost your job?”
“Yes.”
Yan Zihao closed the document and met Jiaren Wu’s pitiful gaze. He had no pity for the fairer sex at all. He interrogated Jiaren Wu in a harsh tone, “As a police officer, what you should do is protect the people and the masses. But you broke the law… Why?”
Hearing Yan Zihao’s words, Dongli Shenghua looked at Jiaren Wu.
Jiaren Wu remained silent.
The man who had been silent all this while suddenly spoke up, “Miss Wu, the two times we met, you gave me a very good impression. The first time, even though I injured you, you didn’t take the opportunity to extort me. This is enough to prove that you are an upright person.”
When he saw Jiaren Wu looking at him, Dongli Shenghua slightly lowered his head and said in a cold voice, “The second time we met, even though it wasn’t during your working hours, you still barged into the fire and saved me. This is enough to prove that you’re a qualified and outstanding police officer.
“Then, why would such an outstanding police officer publicly beat someone up?”
Yan Zihao had not expected that Miss Wu and their boss were old friends.
Dongli Shenghua looked at Jiaren Wu with scrutiny and inquiry.
Jiaren Wu smiled bitterly. “Looks like if I don’t say it, I won’t be able to get this job.”
The three of them didn’t say anything. Obviously, if Jiaren Wu didn’t explain clearly, then they wouldn’t allow such a suspicious person to join their company.
Jiaren Wu said, “The person I beat up is called Yang Shu. I had a younger brother who was two years younger than me. His IQ was lower than others, and his mental age had always been around ten years old. He had heart disease. Later on, when he was hospitalized for surgery, he got to know Yang Shu. At that time, Yang Shu was only seventeen or eighteen years old. Yang Shu smoked, drank, and went to bars. His results were poor, and he was a problematic youth that gave teachers headaches.
“However, he got along well with my younger brother and had a good relationship with him. When my younger brother had a friend, I was very happy for him. However, Yang Shu was not sincere at all. He wanted to trick my younger brother into taking drugs with him, then get my younger brother to buy drugs for him so that he could take drugs…
“Later on, I discovered that my brother had failed to kick away his drug addiction. To not implicate me, he hanged himself…”
Jiaren Wu stopped talking.
She looked down at the clean floor, her eyes filled with indignation.
Yan Zihao looked apologetic, and even Pan Jie frowned.
“I’m sorry! I never thought that there would be such a hidden truth in this.” When Dongli Shenghua apologized, his deep feelings were also very faint.
Jiaren Wu shook her head and said that she was fine.
“Miss Wu, you have passed the test of your skills. You can go back first and wait for our notice.”
Jiaren Wu did not delay any further. She stood up and left.
It looked like she was blaming Yan Zihao and the others for digging out her sore spot.
Dongli Shenghua squinted at the direction in which Jiaren Wu had disappeared.
She wasn’t lying. Everything she said was true. He had gotten someone to investigate the social relations and past of every person who came to seek employment. What Jiaren Wu had just said was the same as what they had found out.
For the first time, he began to doubt his intuition.
Has this person really visited my company just by coincidence?
When Jiaren Wu walked out of the Shenhua Film Studio building, her heart was racing.
She did not expect that the person who wanted to hire bodyguards was actually Dongli Shenghua.
Would he hire me?
Jiaren Wu shook her head and did not probe further.
***
Two days later, Jiaren Wu received an email in the afternoon.
She received a reply from Shenhua Entertainment. She had been hired.
Her salary for the first three months was 20,000 yuan. After becoming a full-time employee, she would earn 25,000 yuan. She could take two days off every month. If she had to work overtime during her vacation, her salary would be calculated separately. She would be provided with food but not accommodation. She would be required to wear a black formal suit, and her phone would be on standby at all times.
When necessary, she had to cooperate with her employer to attend banquets, gatherings, and business trips.
Jiaren Wu stared at the email and clenched her fists.
She forwarded the reply to Wei Shuyi’s email. After reading the letter, Wei Shuyi immediately called Jiaren Wu.
“You have to be at their beck and call? Even late at night?”
“Yes.”
Wei Shuyi’s gaze darkened, and he asked again, “You even have to go on business trips?”
“Yeah.”
Wouldn’t that mean that we would spend more time apart?
“Are you attending the banquet as a bodyguard or a female companion?”
Jiaren Wu did not hide anything from him. She said, “Most of the time, it should be a female companion.”
“Jiaren.”
“Yeah?”
There was a long silence.
Wei Shuyi understood that he couldn’t interfere too much in Jiaren Wu’s private matters. But when he thought about how she would run off to meet another man in the middle of the night to go on a business trip with him and even attend the banquet as his female companion, he was furious and jealous!
“Can you change your job?”
In love, everyone was selfish.
Wei Shuyi thought that he had been careless and sensible, but he had underestimated how domineering and possessive he was toward Jiaren Wu.
Jiaren Wu was stunned.
Before she had forwarded the email, she had thought that Wei Shuyi might be dissatisfied with her job. However, she hadn’t expected him to be so against it.
“Wei Shuyi,” she called out his name.
Wei Shuyi knew that she was angry.
Indeed, she had spoken.
“If you can’t give me the least bit of trust, then I’m really… very sad.” With that, Jiaren Wu hung up.
She put down her phone, and the anger on her face disappeared completely.
In its place were reluctance, pain, and determination.
She couldn’t wait to live with Wei Shuyi every day, but in this world, other than love, there were other things that needed to be done.
Her teacher had left.
Captain Huang had left.
Lei Zi, Chen Jianping, and the others had all left.
The brothers who had fought side by side in the past were either dead or crippled. Who could say that Tang Jiangyun’s betrayal was his fault? He was also a human. He had his weakness and selfishness. So, whose fault was it?
It was those people!
It was those drug dealers who disregarded other people’s lives for money and knew that drugs were harmful, but still sold them!
The drug dealers would not all disappear, but they could not stop beating them just because they could not kill them!
There was always someone who had to stand up and fight against them.
From the moment she had made a move on Yang Shu, Jiaren Wu had already embarked on a path of no return. She could not turn back. Her turning back was a betrayal to her brothers!
Jiaren Wu stood up and walked into the bathroom to turn the water temperature to the lowest.
The cold water drenched her entire body.
***
The next morning, Jiaren Wu received a text message from an unknown number.
156XXXX6489: Come to Dragon Harbour villa 7!
Jiaren Wu guessed that it was a message from Dongli Shenghua’s assistant.
She saved her number and called Brother Pan before leaving the house on her motorbike. Wei Shuyi’s car was parked at the entrance of her neighborhood. He watched Jiaren Wu drive past him on her motorbike. She was wearing a black formal suit and a helmet. She drove very quickly and did not notice him.
Wei Shuyi looked at the rearview mirror until the motorcycle disappeared completely. Then, he turned around and went to the hospital.
When Jiaren Wu was on the way to Long Harbor, she actually met Fang Yusheng and his wife, who were pushing their babies around.
It was fifteen minutes before her shift, so she stopped the motorbike.
Fang Yusheng and Qiao Jiusheng were drinking yogurt when a motorcycle suddenly stopped beside them. Following that, the person on the motorcycle took off her helmet and greeted them. “Mr. Fang, Ah Sheng. Morning, why are you here?”
Fang Yusheng and Qiao Jiusheng turned to look at her at the same time.
Both of them looked surprised.
“Sister Jiaren?” Qiao Jiusheng pulled her hand out of Fang Yusheng’s arm and walked to Jiaren Wu’s side. She stared at her for a while before saying, “We’ve heard about you.”
Jiaren Wu pulled a long face. “Looks like I’ve really become the nation’s favorite.”
Seeing that she could still joke around, Qiao Jiusheng was relieved. “We moved last month. Our house is on Dragon Harbor 9th.”
Jiaren Wu nodded and said, “So you’ve moved. Why didn’t you inform us?”
“I told Brother Wei, but you were very busy during that time.”
“That’s true.”
Over a month ago, Jiaren Wu had been busy with the strict investigation and didn’t have time to rest. It’s no wonder that Wei Shuyi didn’t inform me.
“Sister Jiaren, what are you doing here?”
Qiao Jiusheng looked at Jiaren Wu’s attire and found it especially formal. “You found a new job?” she asked.
Jiaren Wu didn’t hide it from her. “Yes.” She pointed inside and said, “Hall 7 is my employer.”
“Mr. Dongli?”
“You two know each other?” Jiaren Wu was quite surprised.
At this moment, Fang Yusheng joined their conversation. He was pushing a pram as he said to Jiaren Wu, “I know him. Our house is quite close to his, and he has a child at home. His child often comes to our house to visit. He’s also the owner of Shenghua Film and Television. We’ve met before.”
They weren’t familiar with each other before, but after they moved, they had become familiar.
“I see.”
Looking at the time, Jiaren Wu smiled apologetically and said to them, “I have to report for work now. We’ll talk next time.” With that, she put on her helmet and entered the villa district.
Qiao Jiusheng watched Jiaren Wu enter the district and heard Fang Yusheng say, “This Dongli Shenghua is dirty.”
Qiao Jiusheng turned around in shock and asked Fang Yusheng, “How do you know?”
“Of course, I know. I live here, so I have to know the background of every neighbor.” Qi Bufan had already found out the identity and background of the people around him, but the information about Dongli Shenghua was hard to find.
Fang Yusheng would never place his family next to someone he didn’t know. Due to this, he had especially looked for Yan Nuo and got him to find someone to investigate this Dongli Shenghua.
“Do you know what he does?”
Qiao Jiusheng asked him in confusion, “Doesn’t he own an entertainment company? Is he a gangster?”
“Being in the triads is nothing.” Fang Yusheng narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction of Mansion Number Seven. He said, “He’s a drug lord and a drug dealer. The entire Shenhua Entertainment Company is just his money laundering tool.”
When she heard this, Qiao Jiusheng’s head spun rapidly.
In an instant, she thought of many things.
“Sister Jiaren is approaching him…”
Fang Yusheng used a finger to cover Qiao Jiusheng’s lips. “We don’t know anything. We are just an ordinary rich second-generation couple who has nothing to do with this. We are the famous good-for-nothing couple in Binjiang City.”
As Fang Yusheng refused to be the CEO of the Fang Corporation, he had nothing to do at home all day long and even became a good-for-nothing full-time nanny. Qiao Jiusheng did not have a job, so it was widely known that the two of them were a useless couple. They relied on their family background to do whatever they wanted.
The useless Qiao family’s second daughter stuck out her tongue and licked Fang Yusheng’s finger in public.
It was a disgrace!
Fang Yusheng quickly retracted his finger. He drank a mouthful of yogurt and pushed the two little children around.
He walked in front with a faint smile and spoke to Qiao Jiusheng.
Outsiders would only see an elegant man chatting happily with his wife and not hear their conversation. They would probably praise them for being loving.
If a person heard the contents of their conversation, his eyeballs would probably pop out.
The conversation between the useless couple was as follows—
Fang Yusheng said, “Don’t lick it here. It won’t be good.”
Qiao Jiusheng said, “Then let’s continue at home?”
Fang Yusheng replied, “Sure. After you go home and wash up, you can lick wherever you want.”
Qiao Jiusheng complained, “Actually, I don’t like it. I’m so tired every time and my cheeks are sore…”
Jiaren Wu’s car was parked outside Mansion Number 7.
She got out of the car and rang the doorbell.
The housekeeper came to open the door and Jiaren Wu walked in. She didn’t see Dongli Shenghua but his son.
Dongli Ao stood on the marble floor of the courtyard, wearing a black baby-style sleeping robe. His small arms were crossed over his chest as he looked at Jiaren Wu with a cold and arrogant expression. He looked like a replica of Dongli Shenghua.
Jiaren Wu nodded at him and called out, “Young Master.”
Dongli Ao raised his chin slightly and looked at her for a while before saying, “You won’t be able to become my stepmother if you wear this.”
