Chapter 1202: Chapter 1202: Madame Chu Finally Arrives
Qin Jun walked all the way in.
He happened to bump into a woman being helped down the spiral staircase, looking just like Cui Jiangjing, who would have marveled that despite his vast experience with women, he’d never seen anyone so beautiful.
“Madame, please take it slow.”
The woman descending the stairs had skin white as snow, and a plexion like condensed cream. Her features were so delicate that no imperfection could be found, and her dark hair was carelessly pinned up at the back. Her appearance showed no signs of her age, but her experienced eyes betrayed the years, deep and lustrous as gems.
She looked about Lin Zhiya’s age, but even better maintained! Wearing the Magnolia Cheongsam, she resembled a blossoming flower fitting perfectly. The only discordant feature was her pale plexion, her brows faintly tinged with melancholy, like the clouds in the sky that could never be pletely blown away.
Upon seeing her, Qin Jun immediately dropped his usually capricious demeanor and respectfully called out, “Auntie.”
The woman also saw him, her gaze warming as she waved him over, “You’re back? e here quickly.”
Qin Jun strode over, dismissed the servants, and personally supported her arm, “I’ll help you over to the couch.”
“You shouldn’t have flown to Capital City given your health, Auntie. Uncle will be furious when he finds out you came here against his wishes and not caring for your health.”
The woman didn’t mind, smiling faintly, “Let him be angry. He won’t do anything to me.”
Qin Jun’s anxiety grew, “He may not dare to touch you, but he’ll certainly deal with me. Last time he beat me so bad that I couldn’t leave the bed for ten days. If it happens again, I might break a rib.”
His statement wasn’t an exaggeration. The Chu Family men were fiercely protective, and when angered, they were deadly.
Only in front of Auntie did that mad uncle seem a bit more tolerable.
In recent years, as Auntie’s health declined, Uncle had bee increasingly protective, not leaving her side. It was a mystery how she managed to slip away to Capital City alone this time.
Jiang Chenyue looked helplessly at her reckless nephew, “Don’t worry, he’s gone to the Atlantean region, and he won’t be back for half a month.”
The Atlantean region was frequently embroiled in conflicts, and the Chu Family’s business there was rather murky, concentrating most of their influence.
It was not unusual for Chu Aotian to travel there.
It’s just that…
Qin Jun looked at her, “Auntie, I’ve taken over KT Entertainment as per your instruction. Are you acquiring shares in KT Entertainment because?”
Jiang Chenyue’s face, usually untouched by worldly dust, showed a heavy pain, as if thinking about something distressing, her expression stern, “Li Shengxiao is the husband I’ve picked for Xixi. I won’t allow other women to interfere! Regardless whether that woman knows it or not, I’ll make sure she regrets it!”
“…Auntie.” Qin Jun’s heart ached seeing her in pain, he paused before saying, “I’ve met Rong Yan. Li Shengxiao has been protecting her well, and it’s obvious he’s sincere. If we suddenly interfere with KT Entertainment, Li Shengxiao will surely guess the connection between me and the Chu Family, and then my identity won’t remain hidden.”
“If it can’t be hidden, so be it. Our Chu Family doesn’t need to operate in secrecy or with excessive caution. It was the Lin Family who acted improperly first; they wouldn’t dare to openly confront us!”
Qin Jun felt a heaviness like a stone weighing on his heart but didn’t voice it.
Perhaps the Lin Family wouldn’t oppose them disciplining Rong Yan, but Li Shengxiao might not be so passive.
