Chapter 542 – Can’t Guess What’s In His Mind

Book:The Selfish CEO Published:2024-6-2

In Lan Yu Feng’s eyes, which were always unperturbed, a distinct tremor crossed because of Geng Jing’s words. He pursed his lips and did not speak, but only heard Geng Jing continue to speak, “In fact, you know better than anyone that you can never be together. Since this is the case, why don’t you do something a little more desperate? Taking into account the feelings of your enemies and pitying them is not like the feelings that Mr. Lan should have.”
Geng Jing only wanted to use Meng Zige to get the documents, it was important to get rid of Zhuo Zhenbang first. There was no guarantee that at some point Zhuo Zhenbang would realize that she had betrayed him and leave her for dead.
“I don’t need you to tell me what to do yet!” Lan Yu Feng snorted coldly. How could he not see through Geng Jing’s calculations at the moment? However, her words were not without reason. One shouldn’t have any feelings for Meng Zige, excessively.
“Then think about it yourself, I hope Mr. Lan thinks clearly.” Geng Jing said, took the car keys out, opened the door and got into the car.
Looking at the silhouette completely disappeared in his eyes, Lan Yu Feng still stood against the wind, his eyes far away, pondering. Hand tightly gripping the cane firmly, the place of the knee, piercing the bone like pain.
Lan Yu Feng pushed open the bedroom door and came in, and Zi Ge immediately got up. Without waiting for Lan Yu Feng to say anything, he already took the lead, “I think Geng Jing’s proposal is great!”
“I don’t think so.” Lan Yu Feng splashed cold water in a sultry manner.
“I have to help Dad get justice. Whether it is or not, I’ll just think of it as the process of gathering evidence.” Zige was resolute.
In fact, she really wanted to personally verify it. Because … she still holds a trace of fluke, hoping that it is not Zhuo Zhenbang who has laid a cruel hand.
“Have you thought it over?” Lan Yu Feng asked again, his grip on the cane a few degrees tighter.
Looking at Zi Ge nodding her head once again with certainty, his eyes sank for a few moments. His lips, moving, finally spoke flatly, “Since this is your own choice, I have no problem with it.”
His prey, willingly falling into a trap set by someone else. And he, at the moment, just quietly watched.
“But before that, I want you to do me a favor.” Ziggy didn’t have as much on her mind as they did, but she still couldn’t forget the one thing that had been burned into her heart.
“Well, you say.”
“Zhuo Zhenbang is your father-in-law, can you help me get a sample of his tissue? Even a single hair will do.”
Lan Yu Feng froze for a moment, and in the next instant, immediately returned to his normal self, “You want to do a dna test?”
Zi Ge frankly nodded, “Originally, when Zhuo Yunruo and I were so similar, I was already suspecting whether she could be my real sister, which is why I brought Little Douzi to get tested. Now that I heard Geng Jing say that my father and Zhuo Zhenbang originally knew each other previously, I feel more and more that this is a strong possibility.” .
Lan Yu Feng looked at Zige, “So, if it turns out that you are Zhuo Zhenbang’s biological daughter, this time, you plan to cancel the plan?”
This question caused Zige to be stunned for a moment. She bit her lip lightly, shook her head, nodded again, and finally shook her head, her face all tangled.
“No matter what, I still have to figure it out, I hope he didn’t do it. But … if it’s really his doing, I will never forgive him, much less condone him … “Thinking of her adoptive father’s tragic situation, Zi Ge’s face turned a little pale, and she subconsciously clenched her hands. “Even if he is the one who gave birth to me, I can’t forgive!”
Hearing her words, a trace of relief crossed the bottom of Lan Yu Feng’s eyes. He pocketed one hand in his pocket and nodded, “Okay, I’ll find a way to fetch it for you.”
“Have you finished your meal? If you’re not full let the kitchen heat it up and continue.”
He inclined his head and looked at the bed. She hadn’t moved much of what Meng Yu Hui had made.
Zige shook her head, “I can’t eat anymore, I’ll have someone take it down later.”
“Uh-huh.” Lan Yu Feng didn’t force her, looking down at the watch on his wrist, he looked up and spoke to her, “There’s a very important meeting to be held later, I have to go to the company now.”
“Okay, go ahead.” Ziggy nodded.
Lan Yu Feng looked at her with deep eyes and said nothing, only spreading his hand towards her. Looking at the palm that was palmed open in front of her, Zi Ge’s heart fluttered and she handed her hand over in his hand with complete trust.
When Lan Yu Feng walked out of the mansion, Yan Nan had already opened the car door and was standing at the door respectfully waiting for him. He sat in silently, and Yan Nan started the engine. Traveling halfway, glancing at sir’s face from the rearview mirror, Yan Nan still couldn’t help but ask, “Is madam okay?”
Lan Yu Feng’s eyes drew back from the window and stared at Yan Nan, “You care about her a lot?”
“Just a casual question. Her Ladyship is so pure of heart that she will surely not doubt the results given to her by Monsieur and the police.”
Yan Nan was right. Not only did she not have any doubts, but in fact, she had total trust in herself. This kind of trust was what he had wanted from the very beginning, only, when the trust collapsed that day, with her sensitive and fragile heart, would it be able to withstand it?
“She wants Zhuo Zhenbang’s tissue sample for a paternity test.” Lan Yu Feng and Yan Nan said.
Yan Nan was surprised for a split second before nodding in understanding, ”That’s right too, sooner or later, madam will have to suspect something. What does mister plan to do? It’s a simple matter to change the test results.”
“Don’t bother so much.” Lan Yu Feng’s expression was calm and unperturbed, his elbow resting on the car window, propping up his lower jaw in thought. Yan Nan glanced at him from the rearview mirror, ultimately unable to guess what he was thinking at the moment.
All day long, Zige was in a poor state.
Su Jie called over to ask a few times, every time the words are not finished, she first sobbed uncontrollably. In the end, Xi Sujie also dare not ask more questions, only rambling comfort, accompanied her to cry.
From the morning, through the afternoon, lying hollow-eyed and open-eyed on the bedchamber, it was hard to fall asleep, and again the endless nightmares haunted her.
Finally unable to stay, she put on her pajamas, went out of her room and sat in the hall. Looking up at the time, it was already after 4pm.
Woodenly looking at the large house, she tiredly leaned against the sofa, an unbearable feeling of loneliness invaded and wrapped her firmly. Suddenly, so wanted, so wanted Lan Yu Feng …
It wouldn’t be this hard with him around.
“Madam, cover yourself with the blanket, it’s still cool.” The housekeeper gently placed a thin blanket over her, “Mister instructed us to take good care of you, you must not freeze yourself.”
“Did he call back?” Ziggy hugged the covers tighter, warm, but it was no match for his embrace.
“Well, there have been several calls, just asking how you are doing.” The housekeeper didn’t know what had happened to Zige, and didn’t dare to ask more. He just smiled and said, “Now mister is becoming more and more concerned about madam.”
Ziggy pulled at the corners of her lips, “Did he say roughly when he’d be back?”
“Just explained that he wouldn’t be back for dinner in the evening, the exact time of his return wasn’t mentioned.”
“Oh, I know.” Zige dropped her eyes with some loss, hugged the quilt, and shrunk herself towards the sofa before she breathlessly spoke to the housekeeper, “Let the kitchen make all the food that the little young master loves at night, I don’t have much of an appetite either.”
“But you haven’t eaten anything since lunch.”
“I can’t eat, just do as I say.”
After looking at Zige’s face, the butler didn’t say anything more and just quietly retreated.
Accompany the child to eat dinner, and then take him to finish his homework, after coaxing the child to sleep, the time has already passed eight o’clock. Zi Ge embraced himself standing by the window, looking out the window at the quiet night, the loneliness and loneliness in his heart expanding more and more …
The whole world, so quiet, as if she were really the only one left …
I don’t dare to call my mother, just afraid that I will not be able to hold back my emotions; I don’t dare to sleep with my child, worrying that my nightmare self will disturb him at night …
When she could hardly hold her breath, she finally turned around, grabbed a jacket to drape over her rash, pulled open the door to her room and walked out.
“Ma’am, are you going out?” Downstairs, he met the maid who was doing the final cleaning.
“Well, I’d like to get some air.” Ziggy nodded.
“But it’s all dark outside now. You take the driver with you! It’s safer that way.”
Ziggy thought for a moment and nodded, “Good.”
Getting in the car, when the driver asked her where she was going, she surprisingly did not hesitate to say the address of Lan Yu Feng’s company.
Soon enough, it was downstairs at the office. She got out of the car and let the driver go first. Didn’t go up, just stood quietly downstairs, tilting her head to look at the floor that was still lit.
Lan Yu Feng …
With a soft tersely sigh, she pulled her cell phone out and dialed a string of numbers.
“Hello.” Very quickly, the phone don’t connect, but it was Yan Nan who answered the phone. He greeted respectfully over there, “Ma’am.”
“He’s busy?”
“Uh-huh. Sir is in a meeting, so if it’s important to you, I can relay it for you.”
“Oh, then don’t bother, I’m fine.” Zige’s tone was, more or less, lost. Yan Nan heard a car honking on her side from the other end of the phone and couldn’t help but ask, “You’re not at home?”
“Uh-huh.”
“Where are you?” Yan Nan was worried that something had happened to her.
Zi Ge knew what Yan Nan was nervous about and forced a smile, “I’ll be right back, I won’t bother you, you guys are busy.”
As soon as Yan Nan heard this, he thought of something and immediately alertly scratched the tablet aside and directly clicked on the company’s camera situation. Sure enough, that familiar figure was seen in the bottom window.
“Ma’am, just stay there, I’ll ask the gentleman to send for you right away.”
Hanging up the phone, Yan Nan walked into the conference room in silence. The R&D motion for the new project was being discussed to its climax, Lan Yu Feng’s brows were slightly locked as he listened carefully to his subordinates’ narrations, occasionally tapping the desktop, and making comments so sharp that they made all the members’ scalps tense and numb.
Yan Nan took a few steps to his side, overlaying his ear and speaking, “Sir, madam has arrived downstairs at the company. Shall we ask her to come up?”
Menzies?
Lan Yu Feng scratched open his cell phone, connecting to the company’s surveillance screen, and looked faintly at the slender figure on the screen. Only to see her head hanging down, standing in the dim light, kicking the ground with her toes in boredom. I couldn’t see her expression at the moment, but there was a lonely loneliness about her body.
Ripple closed his cell phone and whispered to Yan Nan with a sideways glance, “Tell her to come up and wait for me in the office.”
“Yes, sir.” Yan Nan answered and left. Such a small interlude did not disturb anyone, the people on the stage elaborated as usual, Lan Yu Feng slightly adjusted his posture, still calm and relaxed.
His office, Zi Ge came so few times. The air, full of what seemed to be his scent, actually made Zi Ge feel a lot more at ease.
Being very, very close to him, even the emptiness in his heart had to fade quite a bit.
