Reincarnation: I Married My Ex's Brother Chapter 357 - People Are Unsatisfied

Chapter 357: People Are Unsatisfied

For the entire morning, Jiaren Wu had a strange expression on her face.

Everyone in Shenhua Entertainment was used to having a beauty with them. At first, they thought that Jiaren Wu was a new artist who had hooked up with the CEO and was inseparable from him. Later, when they saw that she was always dressed in black, they realized that she was a bodyguard.

However, this bodyguard could probably protect his master on the bed.

A lover and bodyguard…

Jiaren Wu knew that rumors about her spread in the company, but she didn’t care.

In the afternoon, she had lunch with Dongli Shenghua. Under everyone’s curious gazes, the two of them left together and went upstairs.

Jiaren Wu fully utilized her ident.i.ty as a bodyguard and entered the elevator before pressing the floor b.u.t.ton.

Dongli Shenghua was a step slower.

He stood in front of her with an imposing and cold expression. Jiaren Wu stood behind him. She was neither too far nor too close. It just so happened that she could grab Dongli Shenghua in an emergency.

It was a safe and polite distance.

Dongli Shenghua lowered his head and played with his phone. It was unknown which lover he was flirting with.

Putting away his phone, he suddenly said, “Do you have something to say to me?”

There were only the two of them in the elevator, so these words were naturally directed at Jiaren Wu.

“No.”

“But your expression tells me that you have something to say to me.”

“Mr. Dongli, you have sharp eyes.” Jiaren Wu’s words sounded like mockery and not praise.

Dongli Shenghua didn’t mind. “What do you want to say?”

Instead of answering, Jiaren Wu asked, “Young Master Dongli is already six years old. Has he been studying?”

“Yes, he’ll be in first grade when the summer is over.”

Dongli Shenghua felt that this question was a little strange. Xiao Ao’s studying has something to do with her abnormality today?

He asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Mr. Dongli is not short of money. Why don’t you hire a teacher for Little Master…” Jiaren Wu thought of the words she saw this morning and felt a little gloomy. She did not forget to add. “It would be best if that teacher was a calligraphy teacher.”

Dongli Shenghua pondered the meaning of her words and tried to probe. “Is Xiao Ao’s handwriting ugly?”

After thinking for a while, Jiaren Wu decided to be an honest person. “It’s quite ugly.”

Dongli Shenghua found it hard to explain himself.

Seeing that Dongli Shenghua was silent, Jiaren Wu said, “I’m the one who’s interfering too much.”

“No.” Dongli Shenghua shook his head and said with a wooden face, “I taught him how to write”

Jiaren Wu was speechless.

Would it be too late to change her words and say that Dongli Ao wrote very well?

Throughout the afternoon, Jiaren Wu was as quiet as a chicken.

At night, Donli Shenghua went to attend a charity event. Jiaren Wu waited outside the venue. After 10 pm, she and the chauffeur sent Donli Shenghua home. Only after that did Jiaren Wu return home.

It had been more than a month since she had approached Dongli Shenghua. So far, there was nothing wrong with his actions.

Jiaren Wu almost suspected that the information her senior brother had found was wrong.

Is he really a drug lord?

Shaking her head, Jiaren Wu curled up in the corner of the sofa and drifted off to sleep.

***

One day, Dongli Shenghua attended Movie King Xieye’s 40th birthday banquet. After the banquet ended, Jiaren Wu escorted him home.

“Stop in front.”

Jiaren Wu looked around and found this place familiar.

Dongli Shenghua took out two 100 RMB notes from his wallet and handed them to the driver. “Old Chen, help me buy three pounds of crayfish.”

The driver took the money and got out of the car.

This was the place where they came to eat crayfish some time ago.

Jiaren Wu’s gaze followed Old Chen into the crayfish shop they had visited before. She wondered when she could bring Wei Shuyi here for a meal. At the back seat, Dongli Shenghua suddenly said, “I’ll be going overseas for a while. Miss Wu, you have to come with me. Go prepare your pa.s.sport tomorrow.”

Jiaren Wu asked, “When are you going?”

“Around the middle of next month.”

“When are you coming back?”

“A few days at the end of the month.”

“Okay.”

The next day, Jiaren Wu applied for leave from Dongli Shenghua at noon. She went to the police station and asked Kang Hui to help her apply for a pa.s.sport.

When they met again, they both sighed.

At noon, they had lunch at the restaurant they frequented.

After the two of them sat down, Kang Hui said to Jiaren Wu, “You’re now the big boss’s bodyguard. I heard that your salary is over 20,000 yuan. You have to treat me to this meal today.”

“Of course. Senior Brother, you can order whatever you want.”

“Very straightforward.”

Kang Hui ordered five to six dishes. When the two of them ate, there were still more dishes served.

Kang Hui sized up Jiaren Wu who was sitting opposite him.

Today, Jiaren Wu was still dressed in a black outfit with a black shoulder bag in her hand. The weather was very hot, so she took off her black jacket and wore only a top with a white strap. Her figure was still top-notch, and it seemed like she had not neglected her training.

Kang Hui saw that she was looking good and sarcastically said, “Looks like you’re doing quite well after changing your job.”

Jiaren Wu could tell that he was mocking her.

Shaking her head, she said, “I still like being a police officer and catching bad people.”

“Who asked you to court death yourself!” Kang Hui was a little disappointed and scolded her. “You don’t know how to restrain yourself. Even if Yang Shu deserved it, you should’ve still endured it. You beat up someone in public while being in your police uniform. Even if you’re the daughter of the police chief, you’ll still be punished.”

After saying that, Kang Hui sighed again and said, “You’re really unlucky to have met the higher-ups during the inspection.”

Jiaren Wu took a sip of warm water and laughed self-deprecatingly. She said, “It’s good not to be a police officer. In the past, I was always on guard against people taking revenge on me. Now, it’s good. I can do whatever I want. My salary isn’t low either. The only inconvenient thing is that I don’t have enough time to meet my Brother Wei.”

“You’re really…”

At this point, the dishes arrived.

Kang Hui cleaned two pairs of chopsticks and pa.s.sed one to Jiaren Wu.

Jiaren Wu took a bite of the cured meat. The taste was very familiar, so familiar that her eyes involuntarily moistened.

Kang Hui saw it and frowned.

“Have you visited Master’s wife recently?”

“Yes.”

Kang Hui said, “Master’s wife is in good spirits. Little Jun is much better now. Master’s wife said that he hasn’t been studying much recently and has been receiving tuition during the summer break. He is working hard in high school and should be able to get into a good university in the future.”

“It’s been hard on them.” Thinking of Chief Song, Jiaren Wu felt terrible. “Those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds!” She slammed the blanket on the table and said boldly, “If I were still a police officer, I would fight them to the death!”

“Shut up! You’re no longer a police officer.” Kang Hui stuffed a potato into her mouth.

Jiaren Wu widened her eyes, her eyes filled with grievance and indignance.

She asked again, “How has Brother Yang been recently?”

Kang Hui nodded. “The same as always. His body is recovering quite well. Ah Yang… has always blamed himself for Tang Jiangyun’s incident. You know that he had a good relations.h.i.+p with Tang Jiangyun. When he found out that Tang Jiangyun might be a spy, he didn’t dare to believe it either. Hence, he didn’t expose him, which led Captain Huang and the rest to…”

Kang Hui was silent for a while.

The mention of the lives of his brothers weighed heavily on their hearts.

After a while, she asked, “Is Brother Yang still feeling guilty?”

“Yeah.”

The two of them had not seen each other for a long time and had endless things to talk about.

Kang Hui complained to her about the new colleagues in the team. He told them who liked to slack off, who had a bad character, and who liked to flaunt their wealth…

Jiaren Wu complained to him about how unrestrained and messy Dongli Shenghua’s private life was and how hateful his son was to treat her like a devil…

During the meal, the two of them chatted for a long time.

After dinner, Jiaren Wu carried her bag over to pay the bill.

After paying the bill, the two of them walked out of the restaurant together. They walked to the entrance of the Public Security Bureau. The short reunion had to end.

The two of them looked at each other for a long time before Kang Hui spoke first, “Go to work! Let’s meet again next time.”

Jiaren Wu took a few breaths but still couldn’t hold it in. She asked Kang Hui, “Senior Brother, who… who is the drug lord behind this? Have you found out?”

Kang Hui’s face darkened. “Why are you asking this? It has nothing to do with you anymore.”

“Senior Brother, you know better than anyone that it’s easy to take off your police uniform, but not easy to get rid of your sense of responsibility.” Jiaren Wu smiled bitterly. She sighed softly and said, “I always dream of us catching bad people together. Senior Brother, tell me who that person is.”

Kang Hui was moved by her words.

“It’s not that I’m hiding it from you.” Kang Hui was a little distressed. He disconsolately sighed and said, “It’s because we haven’t found that person yet.”

Jiaren Wu frowned in doubt. “Is he that capable?”

Capable?

Kang Hui curled his lips. “The other party is too cunning. We can’t find out. I suspect that we have someone above us who doesn’t allow us to investigate properly.”

“How could this be…”

“Is it very strange for officials and businessmen to be in cahoots?” Kang Hui smiled mockingly. He said, “A man who is never content is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant. When Captain Huang was still alive, he was brought in for questioning time and time again. Wasn’t it because he violated the interests of some people? In my opinion, that hidden drug lord has a very good relations.h.i.+p with some big shots above us.”

Jiaren Wu angrily said, “What a bunch of sc.u.m!”

“Alright, let’s go back first. I still have to sleep for a while in the afternoon as I have to work later in the afternoon.”

“Okay.”

Jiaren Wu hailed a taxi back to Shenhua Entertainment.

She got into the car and looked down at the small bag on her lap. Her lips curled into a sarcastic smile.

In the office, at this time, Dongli Shenghua, who was supposed to be practicing boxing, was leaning on his chair.

His eyes were closed, and his hands were crossed and resting on his stomach as if he were taking a nap.

A series of conversations came out of the open laptop.

“Senior Brother, that… that drug lord, who is he? Have you found out?

“Senior Brother, you know better than anyone that it’s easy to take off your police uniform, but it’s not easy to remove your sense of responsibility.”

“When Captain Huang was still alive, he was brought in for questioning time and time again. Wasn’t it because he violated the interests of some people? In my opinion, that hidden drug lord has a good relations.h.i.+p with some big shots above us.”

A man who is not content is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant.

Upon hearing this, Dongli Shenghua suddenly opened his eyes.

A cold light shot out from his eyes.

“Ha!”

He held his right index finger and gently looked at the back of his left hand. Recalling what he had just heard, he murmured, “You’re right. The police are also divided into good and bad.”

***

After returning to the building in the afternoon, Jiaren Wu was clearly depressed.

Dongli Shenghua noticed it but pretended not to see it.

After work, Jiaren Wu climbed to the fifth floor and saw Wei Shuyi waiting for her at her door.

He was leaning against the door of her house, wearing a pure black s.h.i.+rt, black pants. Even his shoes were black. His face and hands, which were exposed, were fair and perfect.

Hearing footsteps, Wei Shuyi lowered his head and looked over.

“You’re off work?”

Jiaren Wu’s gloomy mood suddenly brightened when she saw Wei Shuyi.

She nodded. She walked over and leaned on him. “How long have you been here?”

“Twenty minutes.”

“Weren’t you afraid I won’t be back all night?”

Wei Shuyi narrowed his eyes and asked, “You’re not coming home for the entire night. Are you two-timing?”

Jiaren Wu hugged him and bit his neck. She said, “No, I won’t ever leave you.”

“Ha.”

The two of them entered the house together. Wei Shuyi was cooking, and Jiaren Wu had changed her clothes. She ran to the kitchen and said, “I’m going out for a while and will be back soon. Do you need me to bring anything back?”

Wei Shuyi said, “Bring some ice cream. The weather is hot.”

“Okay.”

Wei Shuyi had finished cooking. When he saw that Jiaren Wu was not back yet, he sat down on her sofa and took out his phone to play games.

“I’m back.”

Wei Shuyi was killed in the game when the voice distracted him.

He turned around and saw Jiaren Wu holding a bag in her left hand. She was breathing in the cold air as she held a key chain.

On her key chain hung the acrylic little man and two keys.

Wei Shuyi stared at the two keys and smiled.

Jiaren Wu walked to his side, took a key from the key chain, and handed it to Wei Shuyi, “This is my house key, here’s one for you.” Just as Wei Shuyi was about to take it, Jiaren Wu suddenly took the key back.

Wei Shuyi raised his head and looked at her in confusion.

“Have you thought about whether you want to accept it or not?” Jiaren Wu tightly gripped the key with two fingers. She said, “You can enter my house as you please. Don’t tell me you don’t know what this means?”

Wei Shuyi quickly reached out his right hand and s.n.a.t.c.hed the key from her hand. Then, he lowered his head and hung it on his keychain.

After he was done, he raised his head and smiled at Jiaren Wu. He said, “I’ve taken over your home and you.”
