Chapter 20
"You, how dare you hit me, i’ll kill you!" Jeremy Lin roared crazily.
Fade Chen grabbed his throat and exerted force into his palm. Jeremy Lin’s face turned red and his arms waved wildly in the air.
" Do you still dare beat my wife ?" Fade Chen said coldly.
At this moment, Jeremy Lin really felt the threat of death. He shook his head in a panic and struggled to say a few words from his throat," No, I do not, I do not."
"Then get lost!" Fade Chen roared and threw Jeremy Lin off the stairs.
Jeremy Lin scrambled out of the house, started his car and fled.
As Jeremy Lin left, Quin Lin’s body went limp and she fell to the ground. Tears fell from her eyes silently.
Fade Chen couldn’t help but feel distressed. He picked Quin Lin up and put her on the sofa in the living room. Then she took a few sips of hot tea and her mood recovered.
Putting down the teacup and looking at Quin Lin whose face was still covered in tears, Fade Chen felt pain in his heart. He slowly said in a deep voice, "Quin, can you tell me what’s going on?"
Quin Lin sighed softly and began to tell the story. "It all began 12 years ago. When I was 16, my father died in a car accident. A week later, my mother suddenly disappeared."
Fade Chen couldn’t help but tremble. He heard about the death of Quin’s father, but he didn’t expect that Quin’s mother was missing. In just a week, both her parents were gone, which was a great blow to
a 16-year-old girl.
Quin Lin seemed to have gotten used to this. She continued to explain slowly. "At that time, I was still in high school and my brother was in college. After my parents left, my family’s company was handed over to a professional manager, but it didn’t work out well. In just a few months, the company’s performance had fallen sharply. So, I took over the company while studying.."
As Quin spoke slowly, what happened next gradually entered Fade Chen’s mind.
It had to be said that Quin Lin had excellent business talent. At the age of 16, she quickly grew and matured, showing extraordinary business acumen. She stabilized the tottering company and further improved it. She made the company grow stronger and become the second largest female cosmetics company in Bay City with a market value worth billions.
Of course, with the development of Fei’ s Enterprises Holdings, trouble also followed suit. The biggest problem was Quin Lin’s brother, Jeremy Lin.
When Jeremy Lin parents left, he was still in college, eating, drinking and partying all day long. It was enough for him to have money, and he didn’t care about the situation of his family’s company. But as the scale of the company became bigger and bigger, Quin Lin’s prestige in the company grew higher and higher, so Jeremy Lin inevitably had other ideas in his mind, and he wanted to go back to the company to gain a piece of it.
At the beginning, Quin Lin was trying to help her brother wholeheartedly. She wanted him to work as an office assistant in the company and start to learn how to manage a company However, Jeremy Lin was really not qualified to be a boss. Not only did he not take his work seriously, but he didn’t obey the rules in the company, which affected the daily operations of the company. Quin Lin spoke to with him several times but failed, in the end she had to dismiss Jeremy Lin.
This triggered Jeremy Lin, which made him think that Quin Lin was trying to suppress her brother and wanted to take over Fei Enterprises Holdings on her own. Jeremy Lin was not willing to let go. From time to time, he would go to the company and Quin’s house to create trouble. He wanted to split the company and get his own share.
At that time, Fei Enterprises Holdings, was teetering, almost at the verge of collapse. Quin Lin spent a lot of energy to expand the company to its present scale. How could she hand over half of the company to the idle Jeremy Lin? Besides, the company was built and left behind by their parents. Quin Lin absolutely did not want to see the company close down, so she decisively refused Jeremy Lin’s request.
Jeremy Lin, who did not succeed in selling the company, was naturally very unsatisfied.
After sometime of troubling his sister and having no result, an odd idea came to him. Jeremy Lin wanted to tell Quin Lin that he wanted her to marry Howard Zhang and he will take over Fei’s Enterprises Holdings. Therefore, Jeremy Lin hooked up with Howard Zhang, a notorious guy in Bay City, and asked Howard Zhang to propose to Quin Lin.
Howard Zhang is a lecherous man who was after Quin Lin’s beauty. Jeremy Lin’s promise, to give Howard Zhang 30% of the shares of the company after it the marriage, was to good to refuse. He agreed immediately.
Therefore, with the help of Jeremy Lin, Howard Zhang started to pursue Quin Lin.
How could Quin Lin not see through their intentions? Of course, she did not agree to this marriage.
But what Quin Lin didn’t expect was that her brother went so crazy that he secretly drugged Quin Lin. When she was in a daze, Jeremy Lin made her sign an engagement contract with Howard Zhang, stating that agreed to get married in one month’ s time and give up her shares in the Fei Enterprises Holdings.
Howard Zhang even wanted to take advantage of her and have sex with her that night.
That fateful night, it was Fade Chen who suddenly appeared and saved Quin Lin in time.
After listening to this, Fade Chen’s heart trembled. He held Quin Lin tighter in his arms and said in a low voice," Dear, trust me. I won’t let them hurt you again."
Listening to Fade Chen’s words somehow, Quin Lin actually felt a sense of trust that made her feel at ease. Her body involuntarily moved closer to him, and Quin found that she was lying in Fade Chen’s arms, with their bodies tightly wrapped around each other, only separated by two layers of thin clothing.
Immediately, Quin Lin’s cheeks flushed red. She quickly got out of his arms and went upstairs with her head lowered. "I’m a little tired. I’m going to rest." Quin Lin said.
Looking at her flustering,Fade Chen smiled and couldn’t help but rub his hands together. It seemed that he could still feel her warmth and soft touch left on his hands.
Watching his wife go upstairs, Fade Chen returned to his room with a smile
Inside the house, Fade Chen sat cross-legged on the bed and began to practice his martial arts breathing skills.
Fade Chen did not know how long he had been practicing. He opened his eyes and felt that his body was sticky and sweaty. Because there was no bathroom in the guest room where Fade Chen was living. He could only take a towel to shower in the guest bathroom next to the living room.
After a good shower in the bathroom, he felt much cooler. Fade Chen hummed and wrapped the towel around his waist walked out of the bathroom and was ready to go back to his room.
But at this moment, the door of the house opened. Housekeeper Wong came in with two bags, followed by a young girl of 17 or 18 years old.
Housekeeper Wong put down her bag and shouted upstairs, "Miss, Miss Soo is here." This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
The young girl behind her walked to the sofa and sat on it with ease and familiarity. She picked up an apple and shouted upstairs while biting it, "Cousin, I’m here."
Seeing this, Fade Chen was slightly stunned. Then he smiled at the girl and said, "Hello." Then he went back to his room.
The girl bit the apple in her mouth and looked at Fade Chen, a man who greeted her only clad in a towel. She was completely dumbfounded. After a few seconds, she came to her senses, threw the apple away, got up and ran upstairs. She simultaneously shouted, "Sis, sis, there is a naked man in your house!"
