The receptionist was not someone to be trifled with. There were many people who wanted to talk to Lin Zhexin. They either wanted to sell the patent of a super invention or wanted to cooperate with a big financial group. Some even wanted to meet the nephew of a leader. Some even wanted to impersonate the president of a small country!
The receptionist asked more questions. "Deputy Director Meng, can you provide more detailed information to confirm your identity?"
"It's about her husband, Yang Cheng. Her husband drives a BMW with the license plate number YCNB. You can confirm it. I'll give you one minute. If you don't contact me, you'll be responsible for it," Meng Zhexin said coldly.
It was the first time the receptionist met someone who talked about the chairman's husband. Yang Cheng was a celebrity in the company and had won the hearts of many girls when he held an outdoor concert in the square.
After a careful check, Yang Chen's information was indeed as such. The receptionist didn't dare to delay any longer, and immediately transferred the call to Zhao Hongyan.
Although Zhao Hongyan was no longer Lin Ruoxi's assistant, she still managed the communication channel with Lin Ruoxi.
Zhao Hongyan wanted to know more about Yang Cheng, but she didn't want to arouse suspicion. She just confirmed that Meng Zhexin was in the Ministry of Education and told him his phone number.
Lin Ruoxi was contacting the director of a TV station in Beijing. She was making the final preparations for Hui Lin's comeback, but a strange number came through halfway.
Lin Ruoxi frowned and ignored it. She continued to talk to the director of the TV station, but the phone was still ringing.
It was from Zhonghai. Lin Ruoxi hesitated for a while before picking up the call.
"Is this Chairman Lin from Yu Lei International?"
It was an unfamiliar male voice on the other end of the phone.
Lin Ruoxi nodded faintly, admitting it.
"I'm Meng Zhexin, the Deputy Director of the Ministry of Education in Zhonghai. I have something to tell Chairman Lin about your husband, Yang Cheng."
Lin Ruoxi was stunned. She had never thought that someone would call her about Yang Cheng.
How did this man get involved with the Deputy Director of the Ministry of Education?
"Go ahead." Lin Ruoxi said.
Meng Zhexin smiled, "There's a civil servant in our bureau called Li Jingjing who has an unusual relationship with Mr Yang Chen. It's a threat to the Education Bureau's reputation. If this gets out of hand … it'll bring shame to Chairman Lin and Yu Lei International …"
Lin Ruoxi's heart contracted violently. She felt cold all the way to her bones. She felt as if she was being threatened, humiliated, and oppressed, but she was powerless to resist or refute. She had the urge to sit on the ground.
After taking a deep breath, Lin Ruoxi tried to calm herself down, but strangely, no sound came out of her throat. Her eyes were burning, as if tears of grievance were about to fall out uncontrollably.
"Chairman Lin? Are you there? "Meng Zhexin asked.
Lin Ruoxi covered her chest with her trembling hands. "I know …"
After saying that, Lin Ruoxi hung up the phone. She didn't know what kind of voice she would make if she continued speaking. She didn't know what else she could say.
She knew her husband had a mistress outside, but she needed someone to tell her. What was funny was that she knew there was more than one mistress.
What was even more funny was that she had been with them for a long time, and everything seemed so natural to her.
Lin Ruoxi couldn't understand her own thoughts. Since when did she become so muddle-headed? She didn't know why her soul became so different from hers.
Lin Ruoxi rushed into the bathroom and splashed cold water on her face. She raised her head and looked at her own face in the mirror, letting the water droplets drip on her face.
Her beautiful eyes were shining, and her eyelashes were long and curly. But Lin Ruoxi couldn't see her own face in her mirror-like eyes.
Lin Ruoxi didn't know why, but the nightmares that she had been having these days started to surface in her mind again …
The nightmares that woke her up in the middle of the night seemed to be telling her something …
At this moment, the door of the room was pushed open. Lanlan, who was wearing a white sleeveless top and a blue pleated skirt, ran in happily with two skewers of Yanjing's special candied haws in her hands.
Seeing Lin Ruoxi in the bathroom, she called out "Mommy" sweetly and handed a skewer of candied haws to Lin Ruoxi, "Grandma bought this for Lanlan, eat one for Mommy!"
The chubby little girl looked reluctant, but she still gave it to Lin Ruoxi firmly.
Lin Ruoxi's cold eyes were filled with warmth and tenderness again. She squatted down and touched her daughter's soft mushroom head. She smiled and shook her head, "Mommy won't eat it, Lanlan can eat it."
"It's delicious," Lanlan said seriously, her chubby face full of expectation.
Lin Ruoxi smiled and took a bite, "Mommy can eat one, Lanlan can eat the rest, it's sour and makes Mommy's teeth uncomfortable."
Lanlan didn't say anything more and happily ran out to find other people to play with. She had already regarded the Yang Mansion as her own home and had become the joy of the whole mansion.
Looking at her daughter's petite back, Lin Ruoxi couldn't bear to close her eyes, and a few tears fell down. She didn't know if it was because of the sour candied haws or her heart.
But before Lin Ruoxi could think too much, her phone rang again. It was the director of Yu Lei Entertainment's Beijing branch, Zhuang Feng.
"Chairman, the premiere is ready for the day after tomorrow. We can discuss the specific performance plan after Yu Min picks Miss Lin Hui up from the airport."
Lin Ruoxi calmed herself down and asked calmly, "What time will Lin Hui arrive at Beijing airport?"
"Eight at night, we've already sent people …"
"No need," Lin Ruoxi interrupted Zhuang Feng and said, "I'll pick my sister up myself. I haven't seen her for a long time, you can arrange for someone else to go somewhere else."
The chairman wanted to pick her up personally, so Zhuang Feng didn't dare to stop him. He agreed obediently and hung up.
Since Yang Cheng didn't tell his family that he was going to Zhonghai, Lin Ruoxi didn't know that Yang Cheng would arrive at the airport at night. Otherwise, he wouldn't have picked her up.
Lin Ruoxi didn't want him to think that she was going to pick him up, because she was so angry that her heart was about to bleed.
Lin Ruoxi didn't want to tell Yang Chen about what Meng Zhexin said. Knowing his temper, he would definitely seek revenge for the slightest mistake. Who knew?
At least, Lin Ruoxi didn't think that Meng Zhexin was wrong. Her husband was indeed in an unconventional relationship with Li Jingjing. How could she take revenge on him?
He told her that it was a threat, but to put it nicely, he was probably reminding her that she was being fooled.
Lin Ruoxi tried to calm herself down. She thought that she would talk to Yang Cheng slowly after he returned to Beijing. She shouldn't let Guo Xuehua and the other elders know about this, in case they thought that she was being selfish and used an outsider to pressure Yang Cheng.
Lin Ruoxi felt that it was difficult to do anything. It seemed that family matters were more difficult to deal with than the turbulent waves in the business world. She felt like her head was about to explode!
At the same time, her resentment, anger, and annoyance towards Yang Cheng filled her heart, making her feel uncomfortable.
Gritting her teeth, Lin Ruoxi shook off the unhappiness in her mind and picked up her phone to contact other work.
