Chapter 29 A Coincidental Car Accident
Chapter 29 A Coincidental Car Accident
Jian Xi subconsciously wanted to touch the gun, and stretched out her hand, only then remembered that she didn't bring a gun out today, and quickly slid to the ground, looking at her friend who was lying on the ground under Lan En's protection, she said very seriously: " what happened?"
Ruan Xin looked up slightly at her serious friend and shook her head, then looked worriedly at Lan En, who was protecting her.
Lan En lowered his head and kissed her on the face, and comforted her in a low voice: "It's okay, kitty, I'm here!" As he spoke, he lifted his upper body carefully and looked at the opposite side, but he didn't find the bright light, and let out a deep breath. He lowered his voice and said, "Let's go, let's leave here first." He put his arms around Ruan Xin and got up, lowered his body and quickly left the restaurant.
Jian Xi frowned slightly, and quickly followed her away. When they were outside the restaurant, the two said with a serious face: "I need an explanation." After speaking, she turned around and returned to the restaurant.
"Xiaoxi!" Seeing this, Ruan Xin wanted to stop her, but she was a step too late, she immediately turned her head to look at Lan En beside her, and said worriedly: "Xiaoxi, she..."
"It's okay, the other party is not targeting her." Lan En hugged the worried Ruan Xin into his arms and kissed her. Looking at the figure Jian Xi was looking for in the restaurant, his eyes sank slightly, and he looked at Li Xiao who came in a hurry. Cheng, said in a deep voice: "Take Miss Jane up later." After speaking, she hugged Ruan Xin and walked to the elevator not far away, her blue eyes were so deep that no emotion could be seen, her thin lips were tightly pursed, It seemed that someone couldn't hold back any longer. Thinking about it, Lan En's eyes flashed a stinging light.
What did Ruan Xin want to say when she saw Lan En's tight lips?Silently shutting his mouth, he let him get on the elevator with his arms around him, and returned to their room on the top floor.
Back in the upstairs room, Lan En immediately let Ruan Xin go to the floor-to-ceiling windows, closed the curtains, turned to look at Ruan Xin who was standing in the living room, and said, "It seems that they finally couldn't take it anymore and wanted to do something." In time, he walked to Ruan Xin, hugged her tightly, and said with firm eyes: "Don't worry, kitty, I won't let them hurt you."
"Before you promise, can you explain to me what's going on?" As soon as Lan En finished speaking, Jian Xi walked into the room with a sullen face, and held up the things she just found in the pile of glass debris in the dining room. In front of the two of them, the tone was extremely serious.
Lan En calmly glanced at the deformed bullet on Jian Xi's palm, sat down on the sofa with Ruan Xin in his arms, looked at Jian Xi who was still standing there, and said, "Miss Jian, please sit down." After finishing speaking He nodded to Li Cheng who was standing at the door, indicating that he could go to work.
Li Cheng saluted knowingly, turned and left.
Jian Xi looked at the unusually calm friend and Lan En, squeezed the bullet in his hand, walked to the sofa and sat down, frowned and said to them: "Don't tell me this is not the first time!"
"Although it's the first time, there's nothing to make a fuss about. Since Miss Jane knows my identity so well, she should know that there are many people who want to replace me." The curvature of the smile, but the slightest smile can't be seen in those blue eyes. The wealth of the Cook family can be squandered for several lifetimes without doing anything. There are many people in the family who want to replace him. The difference is that some people have evil intentions but no courage, while others have both heart and courage.
Jian Xi had no way to refute Lan En's words. This is the sorrow of being a big family. The hand holding the warhead was tight, and then he let out a long breath, put the warhead on the coffee table, and looked at the intimate two Man, with a serious face, said: "The idiom is used well, so Earl Cook, how do you ensure Xinxin's safety in this situation? Bullets don't have eyes. By the way, I haven't asked yet. What are you guys?" relation?"
Hearing her friend's last words, Ruan Xin looked up at Lan En, met his gentle gaze, smiled at him, reached out to hold his hand, looked at her friend and said, "Xiao Xi, didn't I tell you Am I married?" She hadn't heard of it, but the implication was obvious enough.
Jian Xi was stunned for a moment and immediately understood, stood up from the sofa, pointed at Lan En and said in disbelief: "You married him? What's going on here? Why don't I know you... "Speaking of which, Jian Xi suddenly stopped, yes!Xinxin had been missing for three years. She didn't know what happened during these three years. She sat back on the sofa a little discouraged, looked at the two of them and said, "Tell me! What else should I know?"
Seeing her friend's discouraged look, Ruan Xin got up, walked to her and sat down, held her hand and glanced at Lan En, then looked at her and said, "Xiao Xi, many things are long stories, I will talk about them slowly in the future." Let me tell you." He glanced at the warhead on the coffee table and said, "Can you help us keep this matter a secret?"
Jian Xi looked at his friend with pleading eyes, then glanced at Lan En opposite, and thought of his special identity, raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, and said with some headache: "I know, I will keep it secret, but Xin Xin, you have to be careful in the future, although it is the first time for something like this today, I'm afraid it won't be the last time." When she said this, she looked at the man opposite with sharp eyes, and this man was indeed one in a million. The best of the best, both in terms of background and appearance, are impeccable, but because of this, his life is destined to not be very peaceful, and he looks back at his friend worriedly.
"Little cat, come here!" Lan En looked straight into Jian Xi's eyes calmly, and said softly to Ruan Xin after she looked away.
Ruan Xin looked at her friend's worried eyes, smiled and patted the back of her hand, got up and went back to Lan En, looked at him and said, "Master Earl, do you dare to call me without calling me a pet? Do you dare to be serious? calling my name?"
The originally dignified atmosphere disappeared immediately after Ruan Xin made such a fuss.
Jian Xi couldn't help but hold her forehead, and shook her head a little too hard to look directly at. Seeing the interaction between the two, she instantly felt very hungry and bright. It seems that she should go to prepare more dog food and find a piece of cloth to hold her. Cover this super-thousand-thousand big light bulb so that it won't be too bright to blind your eyes.
Lan En looked at Ruan Xin's slightly bulging cheeks, and shook his head solemnly, "Don't dare." After speaking, he chuckled and hugged her in his arms, and then said, "A kitten is not a pet." He leaned close to her and whispered, and saw her cheeks turn red instantly, and the corners of her mouth widened, then she raised her eyes and looked at Jian Xi who was opposite her and said, "Miss Jian hasn't eaten yet, right? I'll send someone to bring some food up." " After speaking, he reached for the landline beside him and dialed Li Cheng's number, "Bring me some food."
Just as Lan En hung up the phone, a soft ringtone rang in the room.
As soon as she heard the ringtone, Ruan Xin stood up, walked over and took out her mobile phone from the bag in the hallway, and seeing that it was a call from the company, her eyes flashed and she said, "What's the matter, Zhenqin?"
……
"Okay, I see." After the other party finished speaking, Ruan Xin responded, hung up the phone and turned around, and saw Lan En and Jian Xi looking at her, smiled at them and said: "My assistant called, saying that the police The bureau just went to the company to take the financial manager away." She said it very easily, as if she was saying 'what are you eating today'.
Jian Xi was startled when she heard the words, looked at Ruan Xin and asked, "Why?"
Lan En didn't speak, looked at the curvature of Ruan Xin's mouth, smiled clearly, stood up and looked at them and said, "Red wine or coffee?" He walked towards the small bar beside him.
"Thank you for the coffee!" Ruan Xin and Jian Xi replied to Lan En in unison. After speaking, they were slightly taken aback, and then they looked at each other and smiled.
"It seems that our tacit understanding is still the same as before." Ruan Xin finished with a smile, went to sit beside her, and then answered her question just now, "I asked someone to review the company's accounts for the past three years, and found several Fake accounts, nearly [-] million funds are missing, so..." He shrugged with a smile.
"This man is really bold!" Jian Xi was slightly startled. After speaking, she realized that Ye Rong had been in charge of the company for the past three years. She frowned slightly and said, "By the way, isn't your stepmother in charge of the company for the past three years? Then she ..."
"I don't know about that. It is said that those fake accounts are so secretive that ordinary people can't check them out." Ruan Xin lowered her eyes to hide the sharp light in her eyes. It's not that she doesn't believe her friend, but that she knows something The fewer people there are, the better, and she doesn't want to involve her friends in the muddy water between her and Ye Rong.
Seeing Lan En walking towards them with two cups of coffee, the two of them stopped talking about it.
Soon Li Chengcheng delivered a sumptuous meal, and the three of them chatted and ate together in a harmonious scene.
Half an hour later, Ruan Xin's phone rang again. She took the phone and saw that it was Nalan Zhenqin calling. She frowned and answered, "What's the matter?"
"Ma'am, I just received the news that the police car that took away the financial manager was knocked over by a car running a red light at an intersection in front of the Public Security Bureau, and then hit a large truck. The three police officers in the car died on the spot. , one person was seriously injured and unconscious." Nalan Zhenqin's calm voice came from the microphone, but did not mention the financial manager Long Xiaojuan's situation.
Ruan Xin's complexion suddenly darkened, and she asked in a deep voice with dangerous eyes: "Where is Manager Long? Dead or alive?"
"died!"
Hearing the two simple words from the phone, Ruan Xin clenched the hand holding the phone, and continued to ask in a cold tone, "Where's the driver who caused the accident?"
"Dead too!"
It was three simple words again, which made Ruan Xin's complexion darker and darker. She took a deep breath to ease the turbulent emotions in her heart, and said in a cold voice: "I see." Hanging up the phone, looking coldly at the phone in his hand, he said in a gloomy tone: "The timing of this car accident is really coincidental."
