James supported his waist with one hand and pinched his brow with the other, unable to bear it any longer, he said, "The police will investigate what happened. Aunt Chen, Zhengzhong is still unconscious. If you want him to wake up soon, please be more polite."

Mrs. Chen felt uncomfortable and was about to retort when her cell phone rang.

She picked up the phone sobbing, then quickly became serious.

"Okay, father-in-law."

After hanging up the phone, I felt much calmer.

"James is right, I was too anxious." Mrs. Chen sighed, "Sister Yan, I'm sorry."

Xue Nanyan reluctantly said, "I'm also quick-witted, don't mind it."

We are all from a family of status and position, and the skill of changing faces is something they are born with. It is common for us to be on edge one second and shake hands and make peace the next.

Serena was worried at first, and after James left, she pricked up her ears to listen for any noises, but it was always q

    Shen Dechang stared at her, expressionless for a while, and said in a gloomy tone, "Daughter-in-law, you are really the lucky star of our Forrest family."Having said that, he did not linger any longer.Elliot even chased after her and only came back to report the good news after seeing her enter the elevator."Gone, really gone!"Serena finally relaxed, she held onto the bed and sat down as if exhausted."Sister Serena, your father-in-law is really scary." Elliot sat down next to her. "He is much more imposing than my father. His eyes look like X-rays."As he spoke, he held up two fingers and made a gesture that was so exaggerated that Serena couldn't help laughing."Thank you again, Mr. Liu, for helping me this time."Elliot waved his hand. "If I were really on time, you wouldn't have been able to get into Room 204 last night."When Serena mentioned this, she asked hurriedly, "By the way, what happened last night? Why di

    Elliot was standing in front of the oven observing the bread and turned his head when he heard this."Mr. Forrest, your sister-in-law doesn't think it's too much. On the contrary, we get along better and better ." He smiled happily , "Maybe what's fake can come true."James snorted."You want it to happen, but your father doesn't." He paced a few steps, "Your mother who passed away early probably doesn't want it to happen even more."Elliot suddenly stopped smiling, his eyes gleaming coldly, "Mr. Forrest, I thought we were in a cooperative relationship now. If you need my help, you should be more friendly.""Mr. Sterling, please be careful with your words. You are cooperating with me voluntarily.

    After coming out of the bathroom, Serena sneaked into the cloakroom. In front of the mirror, she looked as wanton as pear blossoms reflected in spring water, which was really a bit embarrassing. After tidying herself up a little and waiting for the blush on her face to fade, Serena opened the door.No, Elliot was standing in front of the door.He didn't know how long he had been standing in front of the door. Serena jumped in fright and slapped her chest."Elliot, don't be so elusive."Elliot smiled and patted her head. "You think I'm elusive because you're not paying attention to me.

They would not give it away to anyone even if it was vacant, unless they were not in love.The conference room was on the third floor. Dean Wen didn't exchange any more pleasantries. He pushed Serena in directly and said, "How about you guys? Do you want to come and listen together?"Shen Qingxiang didn't want to do that. It was a rare opportunity to be alone with Lin Boting, and she didn't want to miss it, so she looked at Serena.Seeing her sad face, Serena said, "The report is quite boring, how about you...""I want to listen."

    Mrs. Meng was frightened to tears by the slap."Meng, this time it's clearly the Forrest family's fault, why did you hit the child?"Meng Gang's expression changed, and he instantly became compassionate. He even reached out and helped his daughter up."This slap is a lesson for you. Don't be impatient when doing things. You have a good idea. You took advantage of James getting into trouble and hid behind the Chen family to instigate trouble. The woman who slandered James is yours, right?"Meng Jinyun nodded."Your technique is good, but not neat enough. I'll help you deal with that woman."Meng Jinyun was stunned. After a moment, he said happily, "Dad, you don't blame me for being reckless anymore?"Meng Gang pointed at her, "You are still reckless and not careful enough, but you are still okay if you know how to kill someone with a borrowed knife.

    The following week, James disappeared. To be more precise, the parachuted-in president of the group returned to the group. There were various versions of descriptions of his strong return in Xiao He’s gossip group.——I heard from my friend who works at Jincheng that Vice President Shen was in a meeting, and Mr. Forrest walked in without knocking or notifying in advance. All the executives were stunned. One executive was trying to suck up to Vice President Shen, and when he saw Mr. Forrest, he was so scared that he fell off his chair. It was so funny.——No, that’s not the case. I heard that it was Mr. Forrest who threw the report in Vice President Shen’s face and scolded him in front of all the senior executives. Vice President Shen didn’t even dare to breathe.When Serena saw it, the topic had already changed in the group. She looked through the chat history and discovered that in the eyes of the onlookers, James' return to Jin Cheng was no different from Zh

    James' eyebrows moved slightly, and he led her out of the leisure area and walked towards the flower hall."You think so clearly, so you don't blame me for taking back my shares?"Meng Jinyun sighed, "It's still strange. Not for myself or the Meng family, but for you, I feel that I shouldn't go back on my words. I said it bluntly, but my heart was good, James.""You've always been kind."James showed a look of loss. "Three years ago, in front of my eldest brother's ward, you said the same thing. You said that you were just visiting with good intentions and advised him to focus on his treatment, but he asked you to accompany him to his last journey. You refused, and he vomited blood out of anger."When talking about the past, Meng Jinyun was also moved."I regretted it afterwards. I should have just agreed to it and let William live comfortably in his last days. It was all a way to repay him. Why did I have to stick to my original intention?

    Meng Jinyun didn't touch the pork trotter , but James ate a few bites leisurely and praised the dish for its good quality .The atmosphere at the table was depressing, but the third brother's wife, following Xue Nanyue's instructions, began to liven up the atmosphere."Aunt Yan, I heard from Sister Liu that the family banquet is being held in advance?""Well, the one after William's death anniversary at the end of September has been moved up. There's been a lot going on lately, and the old man is worried about it. Please make time next Friday night."Hearing this, Serena looked towards the upper seat and saw James picking up some food for Meng Jinyun. He picked up a piece of pork trotter with chopsticks . Meng Jinyun's eyes were red and she ate it in small bites with her eyes lowered. It seemed that she was very angry and he was teasing her.Although he played a trick on the Meng family, he probably still cared about his childhood sweetheart.

    "Jinyun is talking about fairness, I support it." James turned his head, "Sister-in-law, are you convinced?"Xie Shi didn't expect James to help her at all. Not to mention that he felt sorry for his childhood sweetheart, he wouldn't do anything just for the sake of the Meng family behind her.To put it bluntly, she did this only because she felt frustrated, and she carefully chose a way to vent her feelings. As the eldest daughter-in-law, even if she ignored the overall situation, there would be various people who forced her to do so.So she said, "Whatever Fifth Brother says is what it is."Meng Jinyun wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and took advantage of the victory to pursue the attack, saying sadly , "Ms. Xie, I did this so that we can get along longer in the future. You didn't grow up in a big family like ours, so you don't understand my painstaking efforts. I don't blame you."Serena dropped her eyelids and pretended not to he

    Serena returned to the flower hall with this plain face. As soon as she entered, her third brother's wife called out."Oh, sister-in-law, you..." She said "you" twice and sighed, "You look so miserable!"Serena's miserable condition aroused the sympathy of the third brother and sister-in-law, and they hurriedly stood up to help her.Serena didn't refuse, and took the hand of her third sister-in-law and sat at the last seat at the side.She had a delicate appearance to begin with, and when she was bare-faced and looked full of resentment, Xue Nanyue looked unpresentable." Serena, why did you take off your makeup for no reason?"Serena lowered her eyes and whispered, "There's a wound on my face. I'm afraid it will get infected if I don't remove it."Xue Nanyue curled the corners of her mouth and wanted to say a few more words, but when she saw the condition on her face, she swallowed her words back.

Why don't you tell me?""How can other people's words be as profound as your own feelings? Don't worry, you will experience a lot more pain in the future." Meng Jinyun looked at her red and swollen left cheek and laughed, "Poor thing, you already look stupid, and now you look even more disgusting."She was provoking her to get angry. It seemed that after saving face, it was time to save the reality. Serena's eyelashes trembled slightly."Ms. Meng is not at the banquet admiring the flowers and smelling the fragrance, but is running to the bathroom to smell the air freshener. This should not be as simple as a quarrel.""It's that simple. I just want to see you lose."Serena smiled too."It sounds like Miss Meng feels that she has won, but how has she won? After waiting for three years, you give me a slap in the face? Miss Meng's

    Serena's ears suddenly rang and half of her face felt hot.She guessed that Meng Jinyun would not let her go easily, but she did not expect it to come so quickly and undisguisedly.This slap also stunned several people around . There were not many passengers near the VIP channel, but there were staff members, who looked over in twos and threes with inquiring eyes.The first to speak was the third sister-in-law. She said sternly , "Miss Meng, what do you mean by this!"As soon as she said this, Meng Jinxiu immediately pulled her sleeve.Meng Jinyun rubbed his numb palms."I mean to make peace with my sister-in-law."She asked with concern, "Sister-in-law, are you okay? Does it hurt? Don't blame me. I'm trying my best to recreate the slap you gave me."Serena dodged her hand, she was not annoyed, but more eager."Sister-in-law, if I don't return this slap to you, I will always have a thorn in my heart.
