Chapter 445: An Old Couple in Love
Lu Jincheng smiled, and Ji Yao also smiled. Even though one of them was injured, the atmosphere between them was indescribably relaxed and comfortable, as if they were an old couple.

On the other side, Ji Zimo didn't find any useful information, so he returned to the hospital, intending to gain favor in front of Lu Jincheng.

I just didn't expect to see this scene as soon as I arrived at the door.

Looking at the two people who were so harmonious and well-matched, her hand on the door handle gradually tightened, and her face became gloomy and ugly.

But after taking a deep breath, she calmed herself down and walked in with a smile.

He deliberately called out affectionately in front of Ji Yao.

"Jincheng..."

The moment she heard this, Ji Yao's body stiffened slightly.

Looking outside, it was indeed Ji Zimo, and indeed, they were so close.

"Ji Yao..."

Lu Jincheng's face changed and he wanted to explain something immediately.

Ji Zimo didn't give him a chance to explain and interrupted him first.

"Jincheng, how is your wound now? I was worried about you on the way here and couldn't eat or drink. Is everything okay?"

Seeing how sincere she was, Lu Jincheng had no choice but to take back his words and tell her first.

"Nothing happened. The doctor said it was just a minor skin injury. No bones or internal tendons were hurt. So far, everything is fine."

"Oh, that's good. I was really worried to death. Jincheng, I just hope you're okay."

After saying that, he pulled out a tissue from his arms and pretended to wipe the sweat off his head.

Lu Jincheng seemed a little embarrassed, especially since Ji Yao was there, and he hid aside.

But there is only so much space, there is nowhere to hide.

Ji Yao felt quite uncomfortable when she saw the "intimate" interaction between the two.

While Ji Zimo was getting close to Lu Jincheng and taking care of him in every detail, doing it deliberately for Ji Yao to see, he was also thinking about how to get rid of this person.

After all, she still wanted to be alone with Lu Jincheng and get some information about the documents.

Ji Yao is a careful person and not easy to fool.

It would not be a good thing if she could see that my intentions were impure.

Then, Ji Zimo's eyes rolled and he started to speak in a sarcastic tone.

"Sister, thank you for helping me take care of Jincheng, but I'm here, and you still have a daughter to take care of at home, so you should go back first. I will take good care of Jincheng and nothing will go wrong."

Ji Yao was choked by this, but due to her status, she really couldn't say anything to refute it, and there was nothing wrong with what the other party said.

She pursed her lips, suppressed the complicated thoughts in her heart, and nodded as if she didn't care.

"Well, okay. I'll trouble you to take care of Lu Jincheng. I'm leaving first. If you need anything, please contact me as soon as possible."

"Don't worry too much, sister. Jincheng is my fiancé after all. I will take good care of him. I can't leave him to an outsider to worry about."

Hearing the hidden meaning in Ji Zimo's words, Ji Yao paused.

She couldn't describe how she felt, but soon she returned to normal.

"Well, what you said is true, but Lu Jincheng is my benefactor this time. I must pay attention to the injury on his hand. Since you, Ji Zimo, don't think it's a big deal, then please report to me from time to time. You care about Lu Jincheng so much, you can't be unable to do such a small thing, right? I'll go back and wait for your message."

After saying that, she left quickly without waiting for the other party to respond or even giving Ji Zimo a chance to refuse. Ji Zimo reacted and glared at her back, feeling a little annoyed.

This bitch is always so annoying.

Lu Jincheng was still defending that bitch and speaking for her.

"Ji Zimo, don't talk to Ji Yao like that. You clearly know the origin of the identity of fiancée. Do you still need me to remind you?"

Ji Zimo was very unhappy after being warned, but he had to suppress his thoughts and pretend to be well-behaved.

"I see. I was jealous just now. I will try to be less jealous and behave well in the future."

Since she said so, Lu Jincheng didn't know what to say.

Next, Ji Zimo took care of Lu Jincheng while talking to him.

As the conversation went on, he began to ask tentatively about the company.

"Jincheng, has the company negotiated any big deals recently? How is the business going?"

Lu Jincheng frowned and seemed to be avoiding this topic.

He looked at Ji Zimo with a deep look in his eyes.

"Ji Zimo, what's wrong with you today? You never mentioned these things in the past, and I never asked me these questions. Why are you suddenly asking me these questions?"

When he looked at Ji Zimo, his eyes were inquiring and full of speculation.

Meeting that pair of sharp eyes, Ji Zimo even felt that he was about to be seen through, and all his little thoughts would have nowhere to hide.

She swallowed, lowered her head, avoided his gaze, and laughed.

"Uh, it's nothing. I just thought about my future and how I'll definitely have to help familiarize myself with the company's affairs, so I couldn't help but ask a few more questions. Don't take it to heart."

She used Lu Qiancheng as an excuse and successfully avoided the suspicion of the person in front of her.

Although Lu Jincheng felt that something was wrong, he couldn't figure out what it was, so he finally gave up and warned her.

"Qiancheng is still young and barely reads a word, so how can he join the company? Don't worry, I will definitely give him some experience in the future. He is my son, and everything in the company will belong to him in the future."

Ji Zimo had a smile on her face but she was unhappy in her heart. If Lu Qiancheng was really her son, she might be happy, but he was that bitch Ji Yao. When she thought about Ji Yao's son being able to inherit the Lu family, she was furious.

Bitch!

The bitch’s son is just like that bitch, neither is a good person!

In the end, Ji Zimo didn't get any clues from him.

She secretly hated him, and felt a little irritated and anxious. The mysterious man had given her a long deadline, and if she didn't give him any clues in time, she didn't know what he would do behind her back.

Thinking of this, Ji Zimo sneaked into Lu Jincheng's study that night while staying at the Lu family's old house.

At this moment, she was glad that she had insisted on staying, as it also gave herself the convenience of entering and exiting the study. The study was generally an important place for storing information, and it was very likely that some confidential documents could be found there.

At night, she was rummaging and searching everywhere.

Perhaps it was because the noise was too loud, or maybe Lu Qiancheng didn't sleep much at night and could easily be woken up by the slightest noise. Lu Qiancheng was awakened by the rustling sound like a mouse.

He quietly came to the study in his pajamas and witnessed everything outside the door.

Lu Qiancheng had a natural fear of Ji Zimo. This was a psychological trauma that had been brought to him since he was a child. Therefore, even when he saw this scene, he did not dare to ask about it. Instead, he was frightened and hid back in his room.
