Chapter 1392: Running into Zhai Zhongshen Again

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

As always, Zhai Zhongshen carried a majestic and domineering aura around him. As soon as he entered the laboratory, Liu Ting quickly scurried off into his corner and refused to come out again.

Even though Liu Ting liked to joke around, he didn’t dare to do such a thing in front of the Second Master of the Zhai family.

In fact, no one dared to even step out of line.

“Yiling, I just remembered that something came up at work. I need to head back,” Long Yuetian hastily said. She wanted to leave as soon as possible.

“Your work should be fine today,” Zhai Zhongshen interrupted.

Upon hearing this, Luo Xiuen realized something: “Wait, how do you know if there’s anything going on at the Long Heng Group?”

“We’ve been cooperating with the Long Heng Group recently,” Zhai Zhongshen replied indifferently.

“Since when did the Tianxing Group also get involved in the entertainment industry?” Luo Xiuen continued to ask.

Internationally, the Tianxing Group had companies in various industries and businesses. However, in the past, they never involved themselves in the entertainment industry which was the Long Heng Group’s main focus.

“Recently,” Zhai Zhongshen replied simply.

Luo Xiuen was once again worried for her good friend Cheng Yi.

This man was not an ordinary person.

Even though Long Yuetian was also smart, she was no match for a thousand-year-old fox like Zhai Zhongshen. This meant she would inevitably fall into the trap he set up for her.

Hence, Luo Xiuen sneakily sent a message to Cheng Yi who happened to be out on an errand.

[Come back quickly. Miss Long came over to visit us.]

Cheng Yi was visiting a research institution in Beijing’s western suburbs today. And thus, Luo Xiuen did not know whether he had the time to read the message she sent him.

When she heard Zhai Zhongshen’s words, Long Yuetian could not help but regret her previous decisions. Why did she agree to cooperate with the Tianxing Group? Because of this cooperation, he knew almost everything that was happening in her company! He even knew she was trying to use an excuse in an attempt to run away.

When she sensed that Zhai Zhongshen was looking at her, Long Yuetian quickly turned around to look at Jian Yiling: “Apparently, the gender of Sister En’s child is known already. What about you? Do you know your child’s gender yet?”

Long Yuetian’s question was a bit redundant. It was obvious she was trying to intentionally change the topic of conversation.

“I don’t know,” Jian Yiling replied.

Zhai Zhongshen said to Jian Yiling: “Yiling, you must be tired after working all day. Go and have some food.”

“Sure,” Jian Yilign replied. She was indeed getting hungrier faster than usual.

Unlike other women who would feel sick when pregnant, Jian Yiling somehow maintained an amazing appetite.

And thus, Long Yuetian was forced to sit down and eat with everyone else.

Naturally, Zhai Zhongshen sat down beside her.

He was elegant in his demeanor, and his every move emitted the air of a mature man.

As always, he did not smile or talk much.

After Jian Yiling finished eating, Zhai Zhongshen handed a file bag to Jian Yiling.

Jian Yiling looked at him with puzzled eyes.

“Information on the Zhang family.”

Zhai Zhongshen would not stop Jian Yiling from competing against the Zhang family.

However, he would help her behind the scenes by investigating the Zhang family.

“Thank you, Uncle Zhai,” Jian Yiling responded. Even though she hadn’t read the information yet, she still appreciated what he did.

Long Yuetian lowered her head to secretly glance at Zhai Zhongshen.

Even though he seemed cold and indifferent towards everything, he really cared about his family.

After receiving the message from Luo Xiuen, Cheng Yi rushed back.

“Yuetian, when did you arrive?”Cheng Yi asked. The smile on his face was silly as he looked at her.

When Luo Xiuen saw this, she wanted to smack Cheng Yi in the head.

Didn’t he notice that Zhai Zhongshen was sitting beside Long Yuetian? Why was he smiling like that?
