Chapter 1746: Detained

Lu Zhenzhen escorted the person out and handed a card to the bodyguard.

“Find a nearby hotel and open a room for her. Just stay in the lobby and make sure she doesn’t run away.”

“Yes, Miss.”

Lu Zhenzhen returned to the company, sent a message to Ji Yanzhi, and then handed her private phone to the assistant for safekeeping.

Busy until after work, the bodyguard called.

Lu Zhenzhen raised her brows slightly, signaling the assistant to turn on the speaker, “Speak.”

“Miss, she has been causing trouble since waking up this afternoon, trying to run away several times. We caught her and guarded the door, but she kept cursing inside and reported us for illegal detention.”

Lu Zhenzhen frowned, “Is it resolved?”

“Explained everything, contacted her family, told the police, mediated a few words and they left. Do you need to come over?”

Lu Zhenzhen glanced at the clock, “I’ll come over.”

She called Ji Yanzhi, but his phone was off.

After getting off the car, Lu Zhenzhen sent him a location pin.

Shi Yun was still making a fuss, Lu Zhenzhen glanced at her without saying a word, just stared for a moment, making Shi Yun hesitate whether to smash the bottle she was holding onto the ground. She shivered inexplicably.

With just one look, her arrogance was suddenly extinguished, panic-stricken, she stepped back, barefoot on broken porcelain pieces, cried out from the pain.

Lu Zhenzhen directly closed the door.

Out of earshot, out of mind.

She sat down in the nearby lounge area, took out her laptop to work. Soon, Ji Yanzhi’s call came in.

“Sorry Zhenzhen, I was on a plane just now. Are you still there?”

“Yes.”

“Great, I’m coming over now. Can you watch her a bit longer for me?”

Lu Zhenzhen: “Sure.”

She dealt with two emails, estimating the time was about right, went downstairs to meet him.

Outside the hotel, there was a fountain, the night wind passed over the water surface, blowing onto her and feeling a bit chilly.

Lu Zhenzhen was wearing a slim-fit suit of thin fabric, the shirt underneath was just a thin layer. She clenched her palm as a car pulled up, its lights shining on her, she glanced at it and recognized the face in the back seat, she walked down the steps.

Ji Yanzhi came over in a smart suit, jogging a few steps and joined Lu Zhenzhen.

“Really sorry, I’ve troubled you.”

“You’ve thanked me many times,” Lu Zhenzhen raised her brows, “She’s upstairs.”

“I was on a business trip next door, didn’t take Shi Yun with me. She wanted to switch with my other assistant, I didn’t agree, so she chased after me on her own, somehow ended up in Rongcheng City by mistake, called me last night, I didn’t pick up. Later, it was my father-in-law who told me she’s being detained in Rongcheng City.”

Lu Zhenzhen smirked, “Yes, detained alright. Old enough to be her father, your little sister-in-law’s quite capable, managing to know such connections in Rongcheng City.”

Ji Yanzhi’s face suddenly darkened, carefully asking, “How is she?”

“Nothing serious, just got her drunk.”

“Luckily I have you.”

“Don’t thank me too soon, I’m helping you, but your little sister-in-law bit my bodyguard’s hand, you have to compensate.”

Without hesitation, Ji Yanzhi transferred the money to her.

The elevator door opened, Gao Zhe emerged followed by many familiar faces, all in suits, the alcohol smell was so strong that Lu Zhenzhen stepped sideways, narrowing the gap between her and Ji Yanzhi.

The conversation halted abruptly.

The group came out.

Lu Zhenzhen exchanged greetings with those she recognized, and many were senior to her, they eventually dispersed after small talk.

Gao Zhe didn’t leave.
