In the middle of the night, Ruan Xingwan lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
Even though I drank a glass of hot milk before going to bed, I don't know if it was because I suddenly changed into a strange environment, or if I couldn't help but think about the reason for Xiao Chen's incident as soon as I closed my eyes. The more I slept, the more irritable I became.
.
She simply lifted the quilt and stood up, pacing back and forth in the room, trying to calm herself down.
Just as she was leaving and exhaling slightly, the bedroom door was opened.
Zhou Cishen opened the door and came in. Seeing this, he asked, "Are you hungry?"
Ruan Xingwan shook his head: "No, I'm not hungry, I just can't sleep."
Zhou Cishen untied his tie with one hand and threw it on the sofa. He walked up to her and gently rubbed her head: "Can't you sleep without me?"
Ruan Xingwan smiled and pushed him: "Okay, go take a shower quickly.
Have you had dinner?
I'll go make you something."
"No, you sleep on your own."
Zhou Cishen turned around, picked up the lid of the calming crystal on the bedside table, and poured two drops of essential oil into it.
There is a faint woody fragrance.
Cool and calm.
Very comfortable.
Ruan Xingwan took a change of clothes from the closet and handed them to him.
Zhou Cishen took it, lowered his head and kissed her lips, saying slowly: "Don't wait for me, go to bed early."
Ruan Xingwan hummed: "I know."
After Zhou Ci entered the bathroom, Ruan Xingwan lay on the bed again. She didn't know if the sleep aid oil had worked, but she finally felt a little sleepy.
She yawned and slowly closed her eyes.
Not long after, she fell into a warm embrace.
Ruan Xingwan was still asleep at this moment, so she said in a daze: "Ning Ning said you and Jiang Yuan went out..."
Zhou Cishen hugged her and paused before saying, "I took him to see someone."
Ruan Xingwan was silent and didn't ask who he was going to see. He thought for a while and then said: "My father called me in the evening. He has come back and went to see Xiaochen, but I don't know them."
He didn't tell me how the conversation went."
Zhou Cishen said: "He has a sense of proportion, don't worry."
Ruan Xingwan nodded in his arms: "I hope that through this time, the distance between them can be brought closer."
Zhou Cishen patted her back gently: "Yes, go to sleep."
Ruan Xingwan's breathing became more and more steady, and after a while, he fell asleep.
…
Zhou family.
Zhou Junnian was sitting in Mr. Zhou's room, looking at the empty bed, wondering what he was thinking.
Huai Xin stepped forward and said, "Mr. Zhou, I will definitely bring the master back as soon as possible."
Zhou Junnian retracted his thoughts and said calmly: "No need, they have already discovered you when you went to the hospital. At this time, don't act without permission."
Huai Xin gritted his teeth: "It was my subordinate's mistake. I..."
In the morning, Mr. Zhou was taken away by Zhou Cishen's people. Huaixin was afraid that it would be detrimental to Zhou Juannian, and there was still no movement from Qin Yuhui's side. In order to ensure that everything was safe, he took action himself.
Although he was fully prepared, he was still a step too late and their people arrived.
If that woman hadn't stopped him, Qin Yuhui would have died long ago!
Zhou Junnian said: "Did you show your face in front of them?"
"Only that woman saw it, I'm going to deal with her now."
Zhou Junnian looked indifferent: "Let Jon go. She has seen you before. If you miss her again this time, you won't be able to come back."
Huai Xin lowered his head and did not refute.
Zhou Junnian turned the wheelchair and walked out: "Not even a fly can fly in Qin Yuhui's place now. Instead of wasting time on this, it is better to look for other opportunities."
Huai Xin immediately stepped forward to push his wheelchair: "Mr. Zhou refers to... Ruan Xingwan?"
"It's such a big thing that two workers died in the new studio, but no news has come out at all. Isn't this information enough? You should take charge of this matter."
"But the master is still in Zhou Cishen's hands, and the current reports on the New Coast project are not good for us. I'm afraid..."
"The old man has only a few days left to live. Even if Cishen takes him away, what effect will it have?"
Zhou Junnian laughed, "As for the New Coast project, I'm probably not the one who's most anxious about it."
The ones who are worried should be the partners.
Zhou Junnian continued: "Although it is still far from our expectations, even so, it is enough for them to jump in a hurry."
After all, the funds that have been invested cannot be recovered.
"But in addition to Lin's, Zhou Cishen has two major international companies, Plex and Southwest. Even if he brings Lin in this time and loses his fortune, the other one won't lose much..."
Zhou Junnian smiled lightly: "He will not let Lin's company go bankrupt in his hands, and have you forgotten that these two companies currently have financial transactions with Lin's company?"
One raised funds and the other reached strategic cooperation.
Therefore, once Lin is involved in the New Coast project, the other two companies will never be able to survive alone.
If Zhou Cishen thought that if Lin was gone, it would be gone and he could just throw it away easily, then he really had no choice.
However, Lin's family has other meanings to them.
It was precisely because Zhou Cishen had these thoughts and concerns that he was able to use the New Coast project to bring all of them in to be buried with him.
When Jon received Huai Xing's call, he was silent for ten seconds. He asked, "Do you really think it is a small thing for a popular star to suddenly die at home in the middle of the night?"
Huai Xin said: "There are many reasons for her to commit suicide. She was harassed by Qin Yuhui, was bullied online, was arrested because of the harm she caused to Ruan Chen, and blamed herself and felt guilty."
"Can others believe it, can Zhou Cishen believe it?"
"This is none of your business, you just need to do what I'm told."
After speaking, he hung up the phone directly.
Next to Jon, Manager Zhang frowned and said: "Boss, he is too arrogant. Even Zhou Junnian would not dare to speak to you like this!"
Jon laughed: "Zhou Junnian won't talk to me like this because he is not this character, but when do you think Zhou Junnian regarded me as a person?
In his eyes, I am just a tool to kill people for him."
"Then we... don't need to cooperate with them, right?"
Jon was originally in the business of collecting intelligence and running errands. He just took the money and left, and didn't care about anything else.
But since I started to cooperate with Zhou Junnian, I have become more and more involved.
Zhou Junnian holds the handle of all the deeds he has done over the years, how can he just leave as soon as he says so?
What's more, someone as sinister and vicious as Amanda could die in his hands in an instant.
At this point, even if Zhou Junnian let him go, Zhou Cishen would not.
So it's a dead end anyway.
It's better to give it a try. If Zhou Junnian wins, he can still get what he wants.
