Retired for A Hundred Years: Re-Employment for the Apocalypse Bigshot!-Chapter 218: Is His Boss Brain-Damaged?
Although Chang Ru was sitting with Ji Ning, there was still a half-step distance between their seats.
After placing her luggage, Chang Ru was thinking about how to greet Ji Ning.
Instead, Ji Ning greeted her first, "Hi."
Chang Ru felt somewhat flattered, "Hello, Tangtang didn’t come with you guys?"
"No, she has to attend school."
Only then did Chang Ru remember that Bai Xiaotang had transferred to Anhe Middle School, feeling a bit awkward, she smiled slightly.
"I’m a bit curious about you," Ji Ning spoke again.
Chang Ru was slightly startled, feeling a bit nervous, "Curious about what?"
"Curious about your special ability."
Ji Ning’s gaze carried a certain profundity, as if she could see through people’s hearts. This made Chang Ru feel guilty, but she managed to maintain a calm face as she replied, "What I have doesn’t count as an ability, it’s not a superpower."
"Miss Chang, you don’t need to underestimate yourself. I’ve heard Bai Xiaotang and Lin Yuanyang mention some things about you. Although it doesn’t sound like a superpower, it does belong to a type of special ability. Are you interested in joining the Security Bureau?"
Ji Ning suddenly made an invitation, surprising Chang Ru.
Wasn’t she close with Bai Xiaotang?
Why is she inviting me to the Security Bureau?
Chang Ru looked suspicious, but Ji Ning’s expression remained very calm as she said, "Having accurate intuition is also considered an ability for us, it increases the success rate during missions."
Chang Ru felt relieved inside, politely declining with a smile, "Thank you for the invitation, Miss Ji, but my ability is hit or miss. I might end up causing trouble for you."
Ji Ning also smiled faintly, "Miss Chang is a bit modest. I heard from Bai Xiaotang that you saved her when you were young."
Chang Ru’s expression was a bit unnatural, masking it with a smile, "Back then, I wasn’t aware of my ability. It was truly the blessing of fortune that I could save Tangtang."
Ji Ning smiled as well.
The relationship between the two improved significantly compared to before.
Afterwards, the two continued chatting about other topics, even adding each other as friends.
This puzzled Bai Yusen’s secretary greatly.
Since he was Bai Yusen’s confidant, he knew some of the Bai Family’s dirty secrets.
This Bai Family’s cousin, Chang Ru, was now the person Bai Yusen disliked the most.
Yet Ji Ning wanted to befriend her, which wasn’t a good sign.
Bai Yusen’s secretary decided to inform his family head immediately after landing.
Two hours later.
The plane landed safely.
It was now 10:30 AM, and Ji Ning needed to report to the Beijing Security Bureau.
Lin Chengsheng originally thought Ji Ning and Lin Yuanyang would return to the old house with him, but unexpectedly, the two directly took a taxi to the Security Bureau.
Seeing his boss in a bad mood, Secretary Li cautiously asked, "Boss, are we going back to the old house or..."
"To the old house. Later, you take the madam to stay at the Greenfield."
The Greenfield was the wedding house of Lin Chengsheng and Li Meifang. Before Li Meifang was pregnant, she had been living there.
Secretary Li felt bitter inside. If the madam knew the boss wanted her to leave the old house because the eldest son was returning, it would surely cause trouble again.
Li Meifang was now seven months pregnant, and since it was twins, her belly was quite large. When Lin Chengsheng returned to the old house and directly told her to move back to Greenfield, Old Madam Lin was the first to object.
"She’s living well here, why suddenly move Meifang away? Since she’s heavily pregnant, I’m not comfortable with her not having anyone around," Old Madam Lin said, glaring at her son.
Li Meifang was always considerate in front of her, and though puzzled, she still sided with Lin Chengsheng, "Mom, Chengsheng also feels sorry for you being older. It’s my fault for making you worry about me constantly due to my condition."
Old Madam Lin wasn’t happy at all, glaring at Lin Chengsheng again, "What do you mean older, I’m not old. I love taking care of my two grandsons. And with Xiao Feng around, I don’t have to worry at all. But this is your first pregnancy, and you’re having twins at that. I’m really concerned... No, you can’t move! If anyone makes you move, I’ll throw them out of the house!"
Lin Chengsheng felt very troubled, especially with Ji Ning and Lin Yuanyang’s arrival tomorrow, so he hardened his tone a bit, "Mom, Security Bureau people are coming tomorrow to investigate our family, Meifen is heavily pregnant, we don’t want any accidents."
"Security Bureau?" Old Madam Lin furrowed her brow, scrutinizing Lin Chengsheng for a long time, "Did you... get into some trouble?"
"No trouble, but something happened in the Sun Family in Sea City, involving our family."
"The Sun Family?" Old Madam Lin was even more surprised, having not paid attention to outside matters for years. Her impression of the Sun Family was still that they were expanding quickly by marrying into the Ye Family, unaware of recent events.
"The Sun Family’s head was publicly assassinated."
"What?" Old Madam Lin’s voice instantly rose, her whole body sitting up straighter, seemingly unable to believe it.
"Someone also poisoned at the scene, so the Security Bureau has to thoroughly investigate everyone from the families present, and the Lin Family is among them."
Lin Chengsheng’s words left both Old Madam Lin and Li Meifang in a bad mood.
Noble families were bound to have some dirty secrets they didn’t want outsiders to know. Normally, they prefer not to deal with law enforcement, but now the Security Bureau would investigate...
Remembering some matters recently suppressed, Li Meifang felt uneasy and immediately said, "In that case, I’ll avoid it. Don’t want to upset the children."
Lin Chengsheng felt a sense of relief.
"I’ll go with Meifang," Old Madam Lin suddenly said.
"You cannot leave..." Lin Chengsheng hurriedly stopped her.
Old Madam Lin was very puzzled, but Lin Chengsheng said, "Xiao Yang will come back tomorrow too."
Secretary Li instantly turned his head towards him, cursing inwardly.
His boss, is he out of his mind?
Doesn’t he know the relationship between his wife and son is strained?
And he dares to say it out loud, doesn’t this just make the madam unhappy?
Thinking of this, Secretary Li glanced at Li Meifang, sure enough, her face darkened, with a hint of anger.
But Lin Chengsheng didn’t notice at all, continuing to tell Old Madam Lin, "Mom, Xiao Yang knows the detective in charge of Beijing; they’ll come together tomorrow, no need to worry too much."
Old Madam Lin felt awkwardly like she wanted to beat her own son for being so clueless.
The strained relationship between the daughter-in-law and the eldest grandson, her son had a large role in that.
"Meifang, you’ve been sitting for too long, your back must hurt? Why don’t you go lie down for a bit," Old Madam Lin hurried to offer Li Meifang an excuse to back out.
Unexpectedly, Lin Chengsheng said another foolishly fatal thing, "Hurry up and pack, Xiao Li will drive you back to Greenfield."
Li Meifang could no longer hold back, her eyes reddening as she asked, "Family Head, are you afraid the Security Bureau’s detectives might upset me, or are you worried I’ll harm your son?"
Previously, when Lin Yuanyang was attacked at the airport, he returned to the old house in a rage, blaming her for not going to the police station in time to get information. The insinuation was she might have orchestrated it.
Fortunately, she managed to talk her way out of it, but evidently, he still suspected her. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
Li Meifang felt both anxious and furious inside.
Her hatred for Lin Yuanyang deepened.
Lin Chengsheng was taken aback, turning to look at her, frowning slightly, "What does this have to do with Xiao Yang?"
