Chapter 80: A Little Secret

Jing Xun couldn’t help being stunned after hearing what Grandpa Shen said.

What’s with this matching and not matching each other, sir unexpectedly has this kind of thought…

The knees were closed, and the sitting posture was standard. Jing Xun was thinking about the chess game while also thinking about Shen Yijin.

Shen Yijin had always been calm and strong, and he was even more outstanding and capable at work. Anyone would see him as a person who was confident and responsible for his own actions.

But it turned out that sir also had such excessive thoughts?

……

When the chess situation was stuck, suddenly someone knocked on the door of the study, and Jing Xun’s thoughts were interrupted.

It was probably Grandpa Shen’s assistant who appeared at the door. Seeing that there was a person in the study playing chess with the old man, the assistant was stunned for a moment.

It wasn’t until Grandpa Shen asked him something did he walk up to report: “In the past two days, there have been some bad rumors in the business community…It’s about young master Jin.”

The assistant paused for a moment after saying this.

He couldn’t help but glance at Jing Xun who was sitting across from him.

When he heard ‘young master Jin’, Jing Xun’s ears were pricked up subconsciously.

He was wondering what bad rumors there could be. Jing Xun looked at Grandpa Shen with curiosity and panic. Then he looked at the assistant again, meaning: Why are you keeping the listeners in suspense?

Grandpa Shen: “Say it, what rumors.”

The assistant regained his senses and said, “It was the accident of the eldest master… Some people say that when the eldest master had an accident, young master Jin returned to the country. The timing is too coincidental. They said if something happens to the eldest master, young master Jin will take over the Shen family. And there have always been rumors from the outside that young master Jin is at odds with the eldest master…”

“……”

The eldest master mentioned by the assistant here referred to Shen Yijin’s father, Grandpa Shen’s eldest son.

He was indeed in a vegetative state due to a car accident two years ago, and Shen Yijin returned to China after that…

Jing Xun couldn’t help but raise his gaze to look at Grandpa Shen’s reaction, but he turned out to be very calm.

He didn’t even feel surprised, and certainly didn’t have the slightest suspicion for Shen Yijin. He just said to Jing Xun, “See, this is how hard it is for Ah Jin to do things, in addition to putting up with this kind of rumors.”

Then he said to the assistant: “Try to find out where the rumors came from, I want to see who came up with this article between their father and son!”

“Yes.” The assistant replied and withdrew.

Jing Xun continued to play chess in the study.

Seeing the young man sitting obediently and immersed in the chessboard without reacting after hearing about father and son conflict, Grandpa Shen was a little surprised.

He asked Jing Xun, “Xiao Xun, you are not afraid?”

Jing Xun asked, “Afraid of what?”

His attitude was so natural that it caused Grandpa Shen to hesitate for a moment before speaking: “Aren’t you worried that Ah Jin did something wrong?”

“Ah Jin’s relationship with his father is indeed not close… and with Ah Jin’s current strength, it’s easy for him to do whatever he wants.”

“He won’t.” Jing Xun had already said this before Grandpa Shen finished.

If it was before he got to know Shen Yijin, Jing Xun might be a little bit skeptical based on his Villain Boss identity alone.

After getting along with Shen Yijin… even if they subsequently did not develop into a husbands’ relationship, he did not believe that sir would be the person behind his father’s accident.

To ask why, there was no reason.

With his current level of self-restraint, no matter how deep the contradiction was, Shen Yijin wouldn’t do that kind of thing…

Despite how Shen Yijin in the book had blackened in the later stage, the Shen Yijin that Jing Xun saw now, although wasn’t as white as a piece of paper, at least he also had a lofty moral bottom line.

He seemed paranoid, crazy and impersonal when doing things.

But anyone who had worked with him would find that he had more principles than anyone else.

How could such a Shen Yijin hired someone to hurt his own father?

Besides, his father had an accident, wasn’t it normal for the son to return home?

Moreover, Shen Yijin taking over the Shen family was completely under (his grandpa) order.

“Hahaha.” Hearing what Jing Xun explained, Grandpa Shen couldn’t help laughing.

He said rather approvingly, “What you said is right.”

Grandpa Shen waved his hand: “I have already investigated clearly when Ah Jin’s father had an accident. It was just a simple accident. He was not young anymore but was still racing with young people. Very indecent… forget it, let’s not talk about him. This time, it’s unknown who brought up the matter between their father and son and deliberately made a fuss. Later, Xiao Xun will go back and help Grandpa tell Ah Jin about it, so as to make him prepare in advance.”

“Ok grandpa.” Jing Xun agreed.

After playing chess with Grandpa Shen for half of the morning, Jing Xun’s mood was almost adjusted. He felt that sir should almost finish his work, so Jing Xun said goodbye to the old man and returned to sir’s room.

There were many people living in the main house of the Shen family, Jing Xun didn’t dare to walk alone, and went straight back to Shen Yijin’s bedroom.

In front of the computer desk in the bedroom, Shen Yijin was reviewing a document while saying something in fluent foreign language. Seeing Jing Xun come back, he told the other side to take a short break, and then raised his hand toward Jing Xun.

Seeing that the other side had disconnected, Jing Xun automatically walked to Shen Yijin. He bent over to wrap around the other party’s neck: “You’re not done yet sir?”

“Soon.” Shen Yijin: “Come and see this.”

After speaking, Shen Yijin showed Jing Xun the information that had just been mailed over.

“This is……”

Shen Yijin: “These are some of the latest instruments developed by Country G. Take a look and see if you’re interested.”

Jing Xun took a rough look at the information. There were dozens of thick pages, and each page was an introduction to various instruments.

They were professional surveying equipment, various processors, imaging equipment and the like. Some were high-precision auxiliary equipment for high-tech research, and some were suitable for being put on the market as ordinary civilian equipment.

It took him only a few minutes to finish reading this material.

During this period, Jing Xun, who was standing next to Shen Yijin, discovered that he had already been sitting on the other party’s lap at some point.

Perhaps he was too tired today and too lazy to stand. Turning around a bit, he bent his knees to sit on the other side of his lap.

Perhaps it was Shen Yijin who took the lead to wrap around his waist, and made a deft effort to get him to sit down logically.

In short, when Jing Xun’s attention was removed from those product introductions, what he saw was Shen Yijin’s clear lower jaw and sexy Adam’s apple.

Uh.

Shen Yijin’s long slender legs were bent slightly. His posture on the office chair was quite standard. His upper body was upright and his shoulders were slightly sunken. The newly changed shirt did not even have a trace of wrinkles. He appeared very proper.

The only thing that was out of place was his arms that wrapped around the youth’s waist.

When Jing Xun was looking at the information, Shen Yijin looked at him.

The posture of two people made the most decent people and the most serious things more… lewd.

Jing Xun: “……”

Cough cough that… even that kind of posture has been used before. Sitting on Shen Yijin’s lap wouldn’t make him feel strange.

After staring at it a few times, Jing Xun moved a little and found a more comfortable position to sit down, and then shook the material in his hand: “Are they inviting us to cooperate in production or selling products to us?”

“Both.”

Shen Yijin briefly introduced: “This is also a scientific research company that has cooperated with us, which specializes in the processing of precision instruments and auxiliary equipment. As for these programs, some of them are still in the research and development stage, and some of them can already be put into use in normal production. The main purpose of sending materials is to ask if we are interested in cooperating together. We can also customize the equipment separately.”

“Ohhhh.” Jing Xun expressed his understanding, he said, “Let me check if I need anything, and I’ll tell you later?”

“Yes.” Shen Yijin said.

Then he asked him, “How about cooperation, how does Xiao Xun feel?”

Jing Xun: “Uh.”

He never expressed opinions on matters involving business decisions, but Shen Yijin still often told him in detail and asked his thoughts.

Jing Xun couldn’t figure out what to do by himself. Doing business required one to consider many factors comprehensively. He couldn’t rely on statistics to make decisions. He couldn’t do it, so he wouldn’t tell Shen Yijin what to do either.

But Shen Yijin still insisted on discussing everything with him. He said that he was now a major shareholder of the company and had decision-making power.

But he only owned some shares of Yiwei at most… But the fact was that even with the Shen Group’s affairs, Sir would still tell him specifically…

Jing Xun knew that Shen Yijin did this out of respect.

Because they got married.

Because Sir had said more than once, after getting married, these were all his…

Every time he thought of these, strange feelings arose in Jing Xun’s heart.

That was probably a feeling of being moved, feeling very warm and reassuring…?

Jing Xun couldn’t describe it.

In short, it was as comfortable as he was sitting in Shen Yijin’s arms now.

As usual, he said, “Sir, you decide.”

When he himself felt very comfortable, Jing Xun had to worry about the other party’s comfort or discomfort.

Such as what Grandpa Shen said just now, Shen Yijin still worried about whether he(syj) was able to match him(jx)… But Jing Xun didn’t know how to comfort him.

People who were sick would have an inferiority complex, even Jing Xun himself.

Imagine that if the previous half-dead him and Shen Yijin were to get married…he would probably feel that he was dragging Sir down and would feel bad about it.

So it was understandable.

At the same time, Jing Xun was also deeply aware that this kind of mentality could not be comforted by words and persuasion. In the end, he had to start with the root cause, that is, to make sir completely better.

But this kind of disease that had plagued Shen Yijin for twenty years wasn’t easy to cure.

For the current plan, he could only try more ‘touch therapy’.

Jing Xun was still very optimistic about the future.

With his legs hanging on the armrest of the seat, Jing Xun’s posture was more free and flippant.

The quality of all the desks and chairs used by Sir was very good, and he wasn’t afraid that the chair couldn’t stand the weight of two people.

Jing Xun remembered the news about the father-son rumor that he had just heard from Grandpa Shen, so he told Shen Yijin and asked him to take precautions in advance.

“I got it.”

One of Shen Yijin’s arms automatically passed through the bend of the youth’s leg to help stabilize his body.

His voice was calm and indifferent: “I didn’t do it.”

“Of course, grandpa and I know that it’s impossible for you to do such a thing.” With that said, Jing Xun involuntarily took some pride in his tone.

It felt great to know that his family’s gentleman didn’t do that kind of thing.

After hearing this, Shen Yijin couldn’t help but look down at him, with a smile: “It seems that Xiao Xun gets along with Grandpa pretty well. What did you guys talk about?”

“En……”

Subconsciously, his eyes turned to the side. Jing Xun remembered that he had cried in front of grandpa just now, and involuntarily felt embarrassed in hindsight.

He seemed to have never cried before.

Everyone had shed physiological tears, like this morning, it was the first time for him…

When he was crying, he thought about Sir’s appearance when he was a child, thinking that Sir was so pitiful, he felt distressed. He thought he shouldn’t let Sir find out.

But now that emotion had passed, he thought more about settling down at present and considering their future. Jing Xun suddenly felt…It was so embarrassing to cry in front of Grandpa Shen!

…He hoped grandpa could help him keep the secret and not tell Shen Yijin this kind of thing.

That was a little secret that only the two of them know!

“It’s good, I didn’t say anything…” Jing Xun said in a low voice, a little embarrassed.

Shen Yijin was watching him the entire time and naturally found that his expression was abnormal.

But how could Jing Xun let him continue to ask. Before the other party spoke, he struggled to get off, “Ah, sir, it’s time to continue working, I’m going to work too…”

Just before he finished speaking, Jing Xun, who failed to roll off Shen Yijin’s thigh, was easily brought back with his arms.

Shen Yijin’s thin smiling lips were infinitely approaching with a very clean breath.

Jing Xun was kissed.

In the sunny morning.
