_1 “Why wouldn’t I accept?”
Lin Chen replied without hesitation, “We’re on the verge of shutting down production because we don’t have raw materials.
We’re not refusing to pay.
As for the favors owed, I’ll find an opportunity to repay them.”
Chu Jiaxue fell silent for two seconds: “Favors are hard to repay.
What if she asks you to do sothing you’re unwilling to do?”
Lin Chen said with a laugh, “If I’m unwilling to do it, I’ll find sothing else to repay the favor.
She’s the one who offered the favor, not begging her for it.
It’s not like she can dictate how I repay it.
Even if she doesn’t help, Xu Bin could solve the problem just the sa.
So, I’ll rember the favor, but it’s not a big deal.”
Chu Jiaxue humd in agreent, “Do you think she’s falling for you?”
Lin Chen’s heartbeat suddenly quickened, “I doubt it.
She knows I’m married and even knows that you’re my wife.
She’s also Miss Zuo Family, so it’s unlikely she’d fall for a married man like .”
Chu Jiaxue chuckled, “It’s just a hunch, anyway.
You’re very capable after all, and Miss Zuo is quite nice, very beautiful, and feminine.
She also cos from a good family.
If you like her, you might as well consider it, since three months will pass quickly anyway.”
Lin Chen raised an eyebrow.
What did Chu Jiaxue an?
Was she pushing him away?
Or was she testing him?
Lin Chen laughed, “I have no such intentions.
To be honest, my personality is quite wild, and I haven’t thought about settling down completely in one place yet.
Plus, I’m a difficult person to ta.
While I may have so captivating qualities, I also have aspects that people find annoying.
So, it’s not like I’m highly sought after.”
Chu Jiaxue laughed, “Well, I’ve warned you.
If you end up missing out on sothing, don’t bla for restraining you and not giving you a chance.”
Lin Chen chuckled, “Are you really that eager to push away?
Have you never considered staying with ?
I’m actually not a bad person.”
Chu Jiaxue snorted, “Didn’t you just say it yourself?
You haven’t thought about settling down and still want to roam wild.
Why would I hold onto you?
If I do, and then you can’t resist outside temptations, won’t you just bla then?”
For a mont, Lin Chen didn’t know how to reply, so he simply changed the subject: “I’ll call her and ask what’s going on.
I’ll let you know once I have it sorted out.
In any case, we must ensure the company continues production.”
Chu Jiaxue also didn’t know how to continue the conversation.
Any further and it would touch on sensitive topics.
“Alright, I’ll be waiting for your ssage.”
After hanging up, Lin Chen thought about their conversation and felt a subtle change in his mood.
A woman’s heart is as deep as the ocean – impossible to fathom.
Lin Chen then called Zuo Yingying.
“Hello?”
Lin Chen said with a laugh, “I just got a call from my wife.
Did you go to the factory?”
Zuo Yingying giggled, “Where are you now?”
Lin Chen answered, “I’m outside, helping soone with a dical issue.”
Zuo Yingying laughed, “You don’t even have a dical license, yet your ‘practice’ is so popular?
Are your patients never-ending?”
Lin Chen laughed in response, “I rely on my friends for support.
They help earn a living.
Enough about that, what are you up to?
Why did you go to see my wife and want to be friends with her?”
Zuo Yingying sighed, “I didn’t expect you to be such an outstanding man, telling your wife about our intimate encounter at the bar.
I nearly choked on my words at the ti.
I thought she knew everything.
Why didn’t you tell her the whole story?”
Lin Chen replied bluntly, “I’m not stupid.
Why would I hang myself?”
Zuo Yingying laughed, “No wonder you weren’t afraid of finding your wife.
You already told her about it yourself as a preemptive asure.”
Lin Chen sighed, “Plans can’t keep up with changes.”
Zuo Yingying laughed, “Don’t worry, I’ll keep my promise and won’t tell your wife about us sleeping together.
I’m not interested in stealing her position.
n get tired of looking at the sa woman every day, even the most beautiful ones lose their appeal.
I don’t want to get married so young and be a dutiful wife, staying at ho to take care of the family.”
Lin Chen said with a laugh, “That’s a relief.
I thought you were going to challenge my wife.”
Zuo Yingying laughed heartily, “Keep dreaming!
Actually, I just wanted to help you and use this opportunity to take a closer look at your wife to find out what kind of person she is.
I’ll have the contract sent to you later.
Sign it, pay, and the raw materials will be delivered to your factory.
The price remains the sa, and I won’t be taking any kickbacks.”
Lin Chen sighed, “You could have taken a kickback and charged a little more.
By being so selfless, you’re making my wife feel uneasy.”
“I won’t, haha!”
Zuo Yingying laughed triumphantly, “Even if you get nagged at and scolded, it’s music to my ears.
I’m having a blast.
Rember, you owe a favor.”
Lin Chen snorted, “I already found soone, and they called about it, only to find out that you intercepted the raw materials.
You made waste a favor.”
Zuo Yingying was taken aback, “Who did you ask for help?”
Lin Chen casually replied, “Xu Bin!
I’m at the Xu Family’s place right now.”
Upon hearing this, Zuo Yingying’s voice raised an octave, “What?!
You didn’t co to but went to Xu iling and Xu Bin instead?
Are you trying to piss off?”
