Chapter 011 Knowing the Truth
Why did this woman suddenly come to the company to make trouble? Did she already know about their brothers' plots? Where did his younger brother Chen Zhongwu go?
Looking at the angry Lu Wanting in front of him, Chen Bowen had a lot of questions in his heart.
Lu Wanting grabbed Chen Bowen's collar with more and more force, "Chen Bowen, I need an explanation now." She suppressed her emotions, but her voice trembled unconsciously.
Seeing this posture, Qian Manman was even more angry, "What are you, Chen ......"
Before the word "Mr. Chen" was spoken, Chen Bowen stopped her with sword-like eyes, Qian Manman was so frightened that he immediately stopped speaking, and the people around him who were watching the excitement gradually dispersed and returned to their respective jobs, but they could still hear their whispers.
The most urgent thing now is how to appease the angry Lu Wanting in front of her without arousing the suspicion of the employees, Chen Bowen immediately regained his composure.
"Miss, did you recognize the wrong person, if there is any misunderstanding, we can go outside and talk about it." Chen Bowen gently held Lu Wanting's hand and took it away.
"Pretend, you still pretend for me! How long the hell are you going to lie to me! Lu Wanting couldn't bear it anymore.
"If there's any misunderstanding between us, we can go outside and talk about it." , Chen Bowen said word by word, "Didn't you hear what I just said?" ”
Lu Wanting clenched her fists and held back the tears in her eyes, the man in front of her, who had been with her for so many days, suddenly exuded an unapproachable power around her, cold, which made her a little afraid.
"Humph!" Lu Wanting shook her hand and strode directly to the direction of the elevator.
"Hey, you ......" Qian Manman still wanted to catch Lu Wanting and was about to block her way, but was stopped by Chen Bowen with a gesture, and she seemed reluctant.
As a person who is related to Chen's family, she is very unpopular in the company on weekdays, some people hate her to the core, and some people flatter her, so she is particularly unhappy that Lu Wanting has stolen the limelight today.
Chen Bowen is completely different from his younger brother Chen Zhongwu's grinning personality, and his eyes and gestures make Qian Manman dare not say a word.
After Chen Bowen straightened his collar, he followed closely behind Lu Wanting.
In the eyes of Qian Manman and everyone's surprise, Lu Wanting and Chen Bowen walked into the elevator one after the other, and when the elevator door was about to be completely closed, Lu Wanting saw Qian Manman's face full of hatred.
The elevator descended rapidly, Chen Bowen stared at the ever-smaller numbers on the display screen, the mystery in his heart had not yet been resolved, and he couldn't help but blame Chen Zhongwu for suddenly disappearing at this critical time, only blaming his grandmother and him for being too accustomed to this younger brother on weekdays, causing him to play too much.
He looked at Lu Wanting beside him from the corner of his eye, she lowered her head and let out a small sob, but at this time he needed to continue to keep his distance from her, in case the elevator stopped and another employee came in to see them, it would be difficult to explain.
"Ding." When the number stops at the "2", the elevator stops.
As soon as Chen Bowen's feet stepped out of the elevator door, Lu Wanting asked, "It's not that you haven't gone down to the first floor yet." ”
"You just made a lot of noise upstairs, there should have been security guards at the entrance of the hall on the first floor, do you want to be interrogated or do you want to be searched?"
"Isn't that because of you!"
Lu Wanting glanced at Chen Bowen and followed him out of the elevator door.
In fact, another reason why Chen Bowen chose to park on the second floor is that if he appears in the hall on the first floor, there will definitely be employees who will recognize him, and then the left "Mr. Chen" and the right "Mr. Chen" will be in trouble. He knew that there was an emergency staircase passage on the second floor that led to a side door on the first floor, through which they could go out without being too noticeable.
Lu Wanting silently followed Uncle Chen, feeling very aggrieved, she came to the company for Chen Bowen, but she was bullied and humiliated inexplicably, and Chen Bowen did not stand aside with her, but pretended not to know her! Is there such a husband in this world? She thought it was a happy thing to finally have her own family, but now it's a nightmare to think about it.
Five minutes later, the two left the company's office building and came to the café opposite the company.
In a quiet corner, the two of them each ordered a cup of coffee, Lu Wanting's eyes were red and swollen, and she stared fiercely at Chen Bowen who was sitting opposite.
"Do you know how worried I am about you? Do you know how I was bullied by that crazy? Do you know how deeply you hurt me? ”
A series of questions have exhausted Lu Wanting, if it weren't for the remoteness of the seats here and the small number of passengers at this point in time, it is estimated that they would have attracted the attention of many idlers.
Chen Bowen was confused by Lu Wanting's question, but he faintly realized that something must have happened to Chen Zhongwu, otherwise they went to Miao Village together to recognize their relatives before, how could Lu Wanting be the only one left when they came back, and he wanted Chen Zhongwu to tell his grandmother on the phone that he would not be home until two days later, and he was also by his grandmother's side at that time.
"Okay, okay, don't you think I'm okay now?" Chen Bowen deliberately pretended to be relaxed, imitating Chen Zhongwu's tone.
Seeing that Lu Wanting still had a straight face, with a reluctant look, Chen Bowen was a little at a loss.
As the CEO of the company, he is very good at handling all kinds of tricky official duties, but he is slightly inferior to coaxing women.
I have to get the words out of Lu Wanting's mouth, Chen Bowen thought so, beckoned the waiter, and asked for a signature cheese.
"Aren't you a little hungry? The cheese here is very good, you can try it. ”
Lu Wanting turned her face to the side unappreciatively, Chen Bowen followed her gaze, they were in the center of the city, there was a lot of traffic outside the window, there were many luxury jewelry stores, and the street scene was reflected in front of the huge shop windows.
"Wife, I'll go shopping with you after work later." When Chen Bowen finally squeezed out the word "wife", even he felt funny.
"If I ignore you again, are you going to rob the bank for me?" Lu Wanting finally relented.
"Not really!"
Chen Bowen secretly thought that women really just eat and shop, this trick really works.
"Tell me, why did you lie to me, and you still found so many people in black, and threatened me with two thousand five! You want to come out. As soon as she mentioned this matter, Lu Wanting rushed up again.
Men in Black? Million?
Could it be that Chen Zhongwu was kidnapped? Chen's high-profile approach was aimed at enhancing corporate publicity and media exposure, and the disadvantage of this practice was that it had aroused the ill intentions of some people in an attempt to commit misdeeds.
What's more, the road to Miao Village is remote, out of the scope of influence of the Chen company, and people with evil intentions can easily attack the two brothers.
Chen Bowen began to regret that he didn't let Chen Zhongwu be more careful, but now even if he regrets it, it will be useless.
"Do you see the two men in black?"
"After they kidnapped you, a man in black said that if I called the police, there would be no guarantee that you would come back intact, and told me to have the money ready within three days, otherwise they would tear up the ticket. I was scared to death, how dare I look up. Didn't you look for people, but you asked about me. ”
"I also asked my friends for help, and I didn't know all of them, I just wanted to know who scared you like this, and I went back and taught that kid a good lesson." Chen Bowen hurriedly justified himself.
"If you want to teach you a lesson, I'll teach you first, you can explain to me why you want to act in this play." Lu Wanting crossed her hands in front of her chest, her apricot eyes round.
"We got married not long after we met, and we don't know each other deeply, if it is your test for me to accompany you back to Miao Village to recognize your relatives and give a dowry, then I pretended to be kidnapped is also my test for you, but I didn't expect you to be so angry, it's not good for me, and it's up to you to beat or scold."
"After I come back alone, I want to die, if it weren't for the Chen billboard, I don't think you would have seen me now." As Lu Wanting spoke, tears rushed out of her eyes.
"You've passed your test now." She almost shouted at it.
Chen Bowen stretched out his hand to wipe away her tears, now Lu Wanting and her in the elevator at that time were like two people, he didn't know how to comfort her, and at the same time he was very anxious about Chen Zhongwu's affairs.
"It's me who is bad, I'm sorry for you."
With no choice, Chen Bowen could only say that regarding Chen Zhongwu's kidnapping, the information he got from Lu Wanting proved that this matter was extremely urgent, but his calm and calm personality made him tell him to stabilize Lu Wanting first.
At this time, the waiter served the cheesecake, and although Lu Wanting didn't eat breakfast, she didn't have any appetite at all.
"Eat something, or it will hurt my stomach, I'll go to the bathroom." Chen Bowen took the opportunity to leave his seat.
The moment he got up, Lu Wanting raised her pear blossom and rainy face to look at her, there was love and panic in her eyes, she was afraid that Chen Bowen would never come back after leaving, just like she was at the airport yesterday.
"Wait for me here, I'll be back in a moment." Chen Bowen said softly.
In the bathroom, Chen Bowen lit a cigarette and leaned against the cold tiles, he pressed Chen Zhongwu's number, but the prompt sound was always unavailable.
He sorted out the original story from beginning to end, Lu Wanting and Chen Zhongwu were separated at the airport when they came back, Chen Zhongwu was taken away by the kidnappers, and Lu Wanting was blackmailed by the kidnappers to ransom people, since the kidnappers knew Chen Zhongwu's identity, then they would definitely think that Lu Wanting would come to them for help.
But after thinking about it, when the three-day deadline is up, will the kidnappers contact Lu Wanting or themselves? At this time, Lu Wanting must not be involved in this matter again.
And all he has to do is to try to contact the kidnappers, then the only hope is the mobile phone in Chen Zhongwu's hand.
Just as Chen Bowen extinguished the cigarette butt and was about to leave, the mobile phone rang, and the caller ID on it was Chen Zhongwu.
