197 Interrogation

Lian Jing looked at her without saying a word. Just as Shen Yin thought that he was going to refuse to tell her, he suddenly pulled her into his embrace. He placed his big head on her neck in a familiar gesture and said grimly, “Yin Yin, don’t ask now. I’ll tell you in the future.”

It was rare for him to show such vulnerability. Shen Yin’s heart ached. She patted his back as if she was coaxing the young Shen Nian. She coaxed softly, “Okay, when you’re ready to talk about it, you can tell me anytime.”

Some people’s childhood had the power to heal their future hurts. No matter how hard their lives were when they grew up, the sweetness of their childhood enabled them to survive.

However, some people were not so lucky. They spent their lives healing from the trauma of their childhood.

Shen Yin was one of them.

She was an illegitimate daughter and had been disliked since she was young. Her mother died when she was a baby, and only grandfather stood up for her. Later on, he passed away from old age.

She had no one in this world except for Shen Nian.

And now, she was lucky to have Lian Jing.

They hugged each other tightly, two people who needed comfort. After a long time, Lian Jing slowly raised his head and looked down at her eyes that were filled with heartache. He hid his vulnerability and replaced it with gentleness. “Yin Yin, I will be good to you. Let’s not quarrel in the future and not lie to each other, okay?”

Shen Yin nodded. She could see Lian Jing was serious about this relationship, so she would reciprocate.

The next day, Lian Jing personally drove Shen Yin to work as usual. Before getting out of the car, Lian Jing suddenly grabbed her hand and asked expressionlessly, “When can I openly pick you up at the entrance of the police station?”

Shen Yin could not help but smile. Did he think that he looked very dignified when he pulled a long face?

Did he know that he looked utterly pitiful?

“What are you laughing at?” Lian Jing glared at her in displeasure. This woman was becoming less and less afraid of him. He had already tried his best to be serious. How could she still laugh?

Shen Yin shook her head and said helplessly, “Tonight, okay?”

“You said it.” Lian Jing retracted his hand and placed it on the steering wheel in satisfaction. He watched Shen Yin walk into the police station before driving to the Lian Corporation to work.

Zhong Xin had already arranged the documents and was waiting for him at the door of the President’s office. When he saw that Lian Jing had arrived, he hurried over. “President Lian, the Tian Corporation matter is settled. Old Master Tian called just now and said that he wants to see you.”

“Tell him to come to my office at 2 pm.” Lian Jing loosened his tie and sat down in his leather chair. He opened a drawer and took the pair of rings that was hidden there. “Zhong Xin, I have something important for you to do.”

“What’s the matter, President?” Looking at Lian Jing’s loving expression, Zhong Xin sensed that this important matter must have something to do with Shen Yin.

As expected, Lian Jing put aside the rings and took out an invitation letter. “I want the item on the fourth page.”

Zhong Xin was dumbfounded when he saw what it was. He had helped the President investigate Shen Yin and knew that her birthday would be in two days. He thought that the President would use the rings to propose on that day, but he did not expect the President to be so extravagant as to give such a thing.

When Zhong Xin did not reply for a long time, Lian Jing frowned unhappily and looked over.

Zhong Xin hurriedly put away the item and nodded. “Don’t worry, President Lian. I’ll definitely see to it.”

In the forensics office, Shen Yin had been busy all morning. She had just taken a break when she received a call from Shen Cheng. “You unfilial daughter. Your sister was fired from your boyfriend’s company. Was it your doing?”

Shen Yin sneered and said coldly, “Really? I don’t even know when she started working at Lian Corporation. Shen Luo is really capable.”

“Don’t quibble. You must have behind this! Your sister was even injured. Did you do it?!” Shen Cheng panted angrily.

He wanted Shen Luo to work in Lian Corporation so she could get close to Lian Jing. But now, she had not only been fired, she was also attacked whenever she left the house. It was as if someone was following her wherever she went.

He was certain that only Shen Yin could do such a thing, so he had called her in a huff to interrogate her.

He did not know that Shen Luo had carelessly collaborated with Tian Ying to scheme against Shen Yin. He thought that Shen Yin was petty and was worried that someone else would get close to Lian Jing, so she fired Shen Luo.

Shen Yin could not be bothered to argue with him. She frowned and said irritably, “You had better ask her why she’s injured and see if she will tell you the truth about what she did behind your back.”

Shen Yin hung up the phone, and her gaze became even colder.

Since Shen Cheng dared to call, it meant that he did not know about the kidnapping incident. Then, it must be Shen Luo’s stupid idea.

This was in line with her personality. She had been a liar, even when she was young, but even a child could see through her excuses. Despite that, everyone was on her side and helped her to target Shen Yin. This made Shen Luo think that she was very smart. Otherwise, she would not have attacked Shen Yin openly without discussing the matter with Shen Cheng.
