Chapter 82: President Ke is really cowardly

"Impossible." Shen Xun frowned, "Ke Zhongyu is a top wealthy heir, how could he take a fancy to an ordinary person like Jiang Lai? Besides, he knows Jiang Lai and I are legally married."

"It's just that Ke Zhongyu has a bad character. After knowing Jiang Lai is my wife, he is using Jiang Lai to target me and Star Universe."

The Ke Group is very powerful, but Lanchuang Technology is a company Ke Zhongyu opened not long ago, and its industry strength is not comparable to Star Universe Technology, which the Fu family invested in ten years ago.

Lin Shutong smiled bitterly: "Is that so?"

She believed Ke Zhongyu didn't take a fancy to Jiang Lai, but Ke Zhongyu using Jiang Lai to target Shen Xun? It was too much like children playing house.

"Yes." Shen Xun was extremely firm.

Lin Shutong changed the subject: "Are you here to find Jiang Lai?"

"Mm, I want to apologize, but she won't see me." Shen Xun felt a bit discouraged when mentioning this.

The high-spirited youth, who was once decadent only because of Lin Shutong's departure, was now discouraged because Jiang Lai refused to see him.

Lin Shutong felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.

"How could Jiang Lai live in this place?" She looked around. Although this place was in a remote suburb, only the rich could live here.

Generally, those who lived here were elderly people enjoying their twilight years.

Jiang Lai had connections here?

"Her mentor's house." Shen Xun said, "Jiang Lai's academic qualifications are actually not bad, and she is hardworking, but maybe she lacks talent; she couldn't get a doctorate, and she didn't find a good job, so she entered the Ke Clan to do some administrative work with no future."

Lin Shutong was originally a little curious about who Jiang Lai's mentor was, to be able to live here, and she always involuntarily linked Jiang Lai with Dr. Jiang from their research institute, even though she felt it was impossible.

Hearing Shen Xun say that Jiang Lai was just a graduate student who couldn't get a doctorate, she lost the intention to inquire further.

"Your evaluation of Jiang Lai isn't low." Lin Shutong deliberately acted jealous, leaned close to him, and asked with blinking bright eyes, "What about me?"

"You are of course very capable." Shen Xun still carried a sense of irritability in his heart, but he still answered her seriously, "Women like you who can persist in scientific research and have certain achievements in the field of scientific research are in the minority. Shutong, you are very excellent."

"Axun is also very excellent. To be able to reach this position today, you must have suffered a lot."

Shen Xun was slightly stunned. Jiang Lai had said similar words.

Just on the day he was promoted.

The whole family was celebrating for him, and Jiang Lai brought out a bowl of white fungus and lotus seed porridge he loved to drink from the kitchen.

"You've had a hard journey to get to where you are today, so drink something sweet."

He fell into memories.

Lin Shutong called him twice before he came back to his senses.

"Axun, what are you thinking about?"

"Nothing."

A woman's sixth sense was always accurate. Lin Shutong knew he was thinking about Jiang Lai, and he was still waiting here for Jiang Lai, just to apologize to her?

Simply speechless.

She wasn't willing.

"Hiss." Lin Shutong suddenly covered her stomach, her face wrinkling.

Shen Xun asked with concern: "What's wrong?"

"My stomach hurts so much, I don't know what's wrong. Axun, I might need to go to the hospital to check." Lin Shutong looked very uncomfortable, and tears were about to come out from the pain.

Shen Xun couldn't care about anything else and immediately drove her to the hospital.

The examination results showed nothing wrong, suspecting whether her period was coming.

Hearing the word "period," Shen Xun glanced at her stomach and inexplicably felt a sense of relief.

Lin Shutong said perfunctorily: "Maybe."

In reality, her period was still some time away.

It was best if it didn't come.

This way, she had another bargaining chip to make Shen Xun divorce Jiang Lai and marry her.

"Axun, I want to drink brown sugar eggs, can you cook them for me?"

Shen Xun said inexplicably: "I want to drink white fungus and lotus seed porridge."

Answering the wrong question.

Lin Shutong was stunned.

Jiang Lai wanted to cook a thank-you meal for Ke Zhongyu, but she couldn't just "decide" on the spot.

She sent a message to Ke Zhongying, asking what Ke Zhongyu liked to eat.

Ke Zhongying called immediately.

Just as Jiang Lai answered, she heard her spitting twice and rinsing her mouth with clear water.

"What's wrong with you?" Jiang Lai asked her.

Ke Zhongying said aggrievedly: "Doing an experiment, failed again, it's the crystal core thing again, but I really don't understand this area! My brother told me to wait, but I want to try again."

"So urgent?"

"Not really, just unwilling to give up, always feeling like I can try again." Ke Zhongying said, "I plan to find some papers related to the crystal core to read. Why did you just ask me what my brother likes to eat?"

"President Ke helped me, and I want to cook a meal to thank him."

"Heh." Ke Zhongying sneered, "This is the thank-you gift he asked for himself, right? So useless."

He didn't even dare to ask for something bigger!

Don't people usually repay kindness by offering themselves?

Ugh, her brother is really cowardly.

"Mm?" Jiang Lai didn't understand the last sentence.

Ke Zhongying said with a grin: "Nothing, my brother is very picky, his mouth is especially picky, I can't explain it clearly myself, wait for me to find the housekeeper and ask."

"If possible, list it in a table for me."

"No problem, I'll send it to you directly. I need to stay away from the lab and change my brain." Ke Zhongying hung up the phone, went home personally, listened seriously to the housekeeper talking about her brother's dietary restrictions, and wanted to smash the tablet several times.

The housekeeper asked: "Why is Miss suddenly concerned about Young Master?"

"I'm not doing it for him, I'm doing it for Sister Jiang Lai."

"So it's Ms. Jiang Lai." The housekeeper's smile was meaningful.

Ke Zhongying asked: "How do you know Sister Jiang Lai too?"

Housekeeper: "Madam mentioned it to Sir."

Ke Zhongying pursued: "What did Mom say to Dad?"

"Madam scolded Sir for meddling, saying if she lost her daughter-in-law, she would divorce Sir, and Sir is still coaxing Madam."

"Hahahaha..." Ke Zhongying laughed ruthlessly, then suddenly thought of something, "What did my dad interfere with? He doesn't like Sister Jiang Lai? Looks down on Sister Jiang Lai?"

Seeing that Miss was getting angry, the housekeeper hurriedly explained: "No, it's just that Ms. Jiang Lai had some trouble two days ago."

"What trouble?" Ke Zhongying pursued, and after learning the ins and outs from the housekeeper, she left in a hurry.

She went to the Ke Clan, Ke Zhongyu was in a meeting with his special assistant and secretary, and only Jiang Lai was left in the office.

Because she was leaving soon, and she didn't participate in any projects.

"Zhongying?" Jiang Lai noticed Ke Zhongying's complexion was very bad, her eyes were full of sadness, and she was angry with her.

"Why didn't you tell me about the trouble you had at the Ke Lin Hotel?"

Jiang Lai was stunned, opening her lips slightly.

"Didn't you say we were friends? Although I'm younger than you, aren't we friends?"

Ke Zhongying felt extremely aggrieved.

Jiang Lai took the initiative to step forward and gently hugged her: "Mm, I was wrong."

"I didn't say you were wrong." Ke Zhongying still glared at her, "You have to tell me if something happens. I'm very good at scolding and hitting people, and my family background is also powerful. I also know how to use power to suppress people."

"Got it." Jiang Lai looked at the little girl who was half a head shorter than her, "I'll tell you everything next time, I'll just be a fox."

Ke Zhongying nodded: "I forgive you, but I don't want to be a tiger."

Her brother was the scary tiger.

Then she handed over her tablet: "Here, a bunch of things my brother doesn't eat, I think you should just pour him a glass of water, as long as he doesn't get thirsty."

"Gossiping again." Ke Zhongyu came in and heard his sister badmouthing him in front of Jiang Lai, his eyes suddenly turning cold.

Did she still want Jiang Lai to become family or not?

Ke Zhongying pursed her lips and shut up. Just then, her teacher called her, and she went out to answer.

"Found you a few papers, all by the same author. You can study her papers carefully, they will be inspiring."

"Okay." Ke Zhongying hung up the phone, and just as she opened the document, someone popped out from behind her.

Ke Zhongyu said coldly: "Sneaky."

"You're the one who's sneaky! I'm reading the paper the old man sent me." Ke Zhongying showed him her phone screen.

Ke Zhongyu looked at the title and author first.
