Give you a lifetime of love

Chapter 53 Family Conspiracy Theory

I hurried out of the room. At this time, there were already many people in the villa. Everyone was uniformly dressed in black suits or black skirts. They showed great respect to the deceased.

When I found Ji Nuan, she was sitting on a swing in the back garden, wearing a dignified black cheongsam embroidered with delicate dark patterns, her hair was pulled up, and there was a small white flower pinned to her ear. His eyes were staring blankly at the peach blossoms that had just bloomed in the tree in front of him.

The breeze blew, and the petals fell on her brightly and dazzlingly.

I went to pick off the peach blossoms on her body, and I don't know what to say to comfort her at this moment, it seems futile to say anything, after all, she has loved the man lying in the coffin all her life.

I thought for a while and patted her on the shoulder and said, "His funeral needs to be held by you yourself. Giving him a beautiful funeral is more important than anything else. Ji Nuan, we need to let the Chen family know how important he is."

Ji Nuan asked in a little confusion, "The Chen family?"

I explained to her that Chen Chu is the illegitimate child of the Chen family. Hearing this, Ji Nuan immediately guessed, "Ah Chu died by falling into the lake by accident, because he was more cautious than anyone else I knew, and he would never Put yourself in any accident, Sheng'er, do you know the family conspiracy theory?"

I have never experienced the family conspiracy theory that Ji Nuan said, because I am the only child in the Shi family. Although I have never experienced it, I have heard that children in the family will use all means to compete for property.

I pursed my lips and asked, "Are you suspicious of the Chen family?"

Ji Nuan's eyes were red, and she said with extreme certainty: "I see everyone is suspicious now, and I absolutely don't believe that he died accidentally, but I can't find evidence now. If there is anything to do after the funeral, I will definitely find out. True!"

I hugged Ji Nuan's shoulder to comfort her and said, "Okay, you must find out the truth for him."

Ji Nuan closed her eyes and said, "I'll go see him."

I watched Ji Nuan leave, her back was slender and swaying, she is a very beautiful girl, her love has always been pure, before she thought Chen Chu was dead, she would rather be single for the rest of her life than love again.

In her life, she has experienced the great grief of losing her lover twice.

One was a young man who lost his legs in a car accident with his life.

One is now, the age when both of them are mature.

An age that thinks that happiness will come after all.

But we all know in our hearts that there is absolutely no way he will come back this time.

I hid the sadness in my heart and went to my assistant. At that time, he was arranging the seats for the guests. When he saw me, he hurried over and asked respectfully, "Mr. Shi, do you have any orders?"

"There may be other truths about Chen Chu, you should pay more attention to it for me."

After a pause, I asked curiously, "Did you go to Chen Chu yesterday?"

The assistant nodded and explained: "Yes, according to your instructions, I quickly sent the Shi family's contract over. At that time, it was getting late and the Chen's house was brightly lit. Many people gathered in the hall, as if they were discussing something inside. In the distance, I heard a disdainful voice saying, he is not the son of the Chen family, why should he come back? I think it should refer to Mr. Chen. At that time, Mr. Chen was sitting in a wheelchair with a calm face. This kind of atmosphere tells Mr. Chen that we always want to cooperate with him."

I frowned and asked, "How did those people react at that time?"

"The complexion is different, most of them are stunned. People from the Chen family came up to ask me what I am doing here." After thinking for a while, the assistant said truthfully: "I can't see how they bully Mr. Chen, so I deliberately said that we always I met Mr. Chen in the afternoon, and I feel that Mr. Chen is a calm person who handles things with ease and does not love to fight. We always have several big contracts that we want to sign with Mr. Chen."

I have a certain understanding of the Chen family's board of directors. The Shi family's contract is specifically connected with Chen Chu, which can stabilize Chen Chu's position in the company, because the board of directors are all veterans, they don't care who is the boss, and it doesn't matter if the dynasty changes. , Whoever can make them earn enough money will support whoever.

Obviously, last night's Chen Chu won the favor of the Shi family.

And before that, Gu Tingchen was very helpful to Chen Chu.

In the eyes of the rest of the Chen family, Chen Chu had the resources of the Shi and Gu families.

I have a bold guess that someone in the Chen family plotted to kill him.

But this is just my guess, no proof.

I asked my assistant to investigate all the people in the Chen family and hand them over to Ji Nuan after a while. I thought about it and said: "From now on, Ji Nuan will be just like me. You should do your best to help her in whatever she asks you to do. Jiang Chen, she is my very important family member."

The assistant replied: "Yes, Mr. Shi."

The assistant went to arrange the endless stream of guests. Looking at these people, I thought of myself a few months ago, except that it was me lying in the coffin, and it was me who came to express their condolences.

Gu Tingchen said just now: "Life is impermanent, let's do it and cherish it."

What is he trying to remind me of? !

I sighed and went back to the room. Gu Tingchen was no longer there, but he left a small note beside the bed, "There is something urgent, my mother is seriously ill, and I will fly back to Nanjing later."

I took the note and put it aside, took off my shoes and went to bed.

I didn't sleep all night last night, I fell asleep when I touched the pillow.

It was already night when I woke up again, my stomach was sore, I got up, changed my clothes and went downstairs, there were not many people in the hall, and it was filled with white wreaths, with eulogy in praise of Chen Chu written on it.

At this moment, Ji Nuan was kneeling in front of the coffin with her head down.

And standing diagonally across from her was a man with an indifferent face. He was very handsome. He was dressed in a black orthodox suit, making him look tall and powerful. His whole body revealed an impressive temperament. He wore a valuable Rolex on his wrist. He is a man who looks very noble at first glance.

I asked myself, "Who is he?"

That man also saw me, he nodded slightly to me, then turned and left the hall, I followed him out and saw him leaving Shi's house straight away, with firm and steady steps.

I was puzzled for a while, then went downstairs to persuade Ji Nuan to eat, she shook her head and said with a pale face that she couldn't eat.

In the evening, she guarded Chen Chu for another night, and the next day she was in a particularly bad spirit.

Chen Chu was going to be buried in the morning, and we all went to the cemetery. At the funeral, I saw the man I met yesterday again. He took a white kapok and left in front of the grave.

Before leaving, he looked at Ji Nuan with his head hanging down meaningfully.

I whispered to my assistant, "Investigate him for me."

The assistant looked over at the person I was talking about. He was startled, and raised awe-inspiring eyes and said, "Mr. Shi, I know who he is, and I'll give you the information after the funeral is over."

I hummed and asked casually, "What's his name?"
