Chapter 171: Chapter 191: Why Did It Suddenly Become Unfamiliar? _1

"Yes, it’s such a coincidence. I’ve had a conversation with your sister, and we both have the same enemy, so we decided to join forces to fight against the Chu family. I’m good at fighting, and she’s good at business. I’m going to deal with the Chu Family thoroughly, so I can’t do it all by myself,"

Lin Chen explained briefly: "The Chuhe Group has acquired the Linhai Sixth Pharmaceutical Factory. It’s said that there are many troubles in the pharmaceutical factory, so I need to help her settle the troubles first. That’s why your sister will transfer me to be her assistant in the meantime, so I have to go to Linhai with her. Will you go with me, or will we meet there?"

Gu Yuexi’s voice raised by two degrees: "Assistant? Won’t you two be in close contact day and night then?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "Yes, are you worried that I will fall in love with your sister? Should I tell her about our relationship?"

Gu Yuexi was taken aback and quickly refused: "Don’t say it, don’t say it."

Lin Chen smiled: "Aren’t you worried? If I tell her, won’t you stop worrying?"

Lin Chen had thought that if Gu Yuexi agreed, he would talk to Chu Jiaxue since their previous marriage was a fake one and just a transaction. Although their relationship had improved a lot, it still couldn’t be considered romantic.

Now he was between an older sister on one side and a younger sister on the other. Although he didn’t have any deep relationships with either of them, he still felt a bit guilty.

Gu Yuexi immediately said, "I’m not worried, I’m just surprised. I believe you."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "I don’t even believe in myself, but you trust me so much."

Gu Yuexi snorted, "You’re not the type to get easily swayed by beauty. I’m such a beautiful woman, and you can resist, so why should I worry? But if my sister asks whether you’re married, you have to say you are."

Lin Chen was speechless. Your sister knows best whether I’m married or not!

"Your sister knows I’m married."

Gu Yuexi laughed, "Then I have no objection. By the way, how long will we be in Linhai this time?"

Lin Chen replied, "I don’t know. For me to deal with the Chu family, I also want to uncover the truth about my origin. The next step will depend on the truth. But it won’t be easy to completely defeat the Chu family. They also have several experts guarding them. Direct action isn’t feasible. So, it will take some time."

Gu Yuexi nodded: "I can’t help much with dealing with the Chu family. I also have to find something for myself to do."

Lin Chen asked with a smile, "What do you plan to do?"

"I’ll attend a management training course. After all, I’m the only one in my family, and I need to know some business management knowledge. Besides, I also have my own store and plan to make it a successful zipper store. There is a famous business management training institution in Linhai. The lectures are given by top professionals. Since you all have things to do, I’ll take this opportunity to study."

Lin Chen laughed, "You made me see you in a new light."

Gu Yuexi snorted, "As I told you, I’m not a spoiled young lady who only waits for things to be handed to her. I also work and learn."

Lin Chen chuckled, "Yes, yes... so, are you going with me?"

Gu Yuexi hesitated for a moment, but eventually declined gently, "It’s easy to get caught if I’m with you. Women are sensitive. We’ll meet in Linhai."

"Okay!"

...

On Monday, Lin Chen received the transfer order from the company. He left the Sales Department to become the President’s Assistant, and Gao Feng took over the position of Sales Team 8 Leader.

Without waiting for Gao Feng’s thank-you dinner, Lin Chen simply packed his things and drove his X5 with Chu Jiaxue straight to Linhai.

Three hours later, the car arrived in Linhai.

The hotel the two had booked was not far from the Pharmaceutical Factory No. 6. They walked into the hotel, checked in at the front desk, and each got their room card.

As they walked toward the elevator, Lin Chen waved his room card and laughed, "Now you don’t have to worry about being pushed off the bed by me. You can flip around as much as you want comfortably."

Chu Jiaxue pursed her lips, "I guess by the time we finish dealing with the Chu Family, our initial agreement period will be over too. I suppose you won’t go back to Pingjiang then, will you?"

Lin Chen stepped into the elevator, swiped his card, pressed his floor number, and laughed, "I should think so. I went to Pingjiang just for you. Apart from that, I don’t know anyone else there. Since things are done and with no one left to care about, there is no need to go back."

Chu Jiaxue didn’t say anything, but her eyes showed a fleeting glimpse of loss.

"You’ve been driving for a few hours. Rest a bit, then we’ll have dinner and go to the factory in the afternoon."

"Okay!"

Chu Jiaxue carried her luggage into the room, took off her high heels, and collapsed on the spacious bed, feeling a bit strange.

At home, she and Lin Chen shared everything but intimacy. They ate together, lived together, and even shared the same bed. Everything felt natural. But now that they had left home and come to Linhai, they seemed to become distant all of a sudden. It was as if an invisible gap had separated them, and even their conversations seemed to become more polite all of a sudden.

Chu Jiaxue rolled around on the bed twice, her expression slightly dazed.

What’s wrong with this feeling?
