Chapter 26: The Scheming Money-Worshipping Substitute
Jin Kaicheng fell to the ground, too painful to make a sound or get up, just gritted his teeth and looked at him.

Assistant Zhang was surprised. He didn't expect that the CEO with such a good temper would actually hit someone. That kick looked painful!

Zhou Congli straightened the wrinkles on his suit: "Speak?"

The man was dressed in a suit and had a gentle expression on his handsome face, as if he was not the one who kicked the person out just now, but was just having a peaceful conversation with the person.

Jin Kaicheng was frightened: "You, you must promise me first——"

"President?"

A surprised voice came from behind them.

A few people turned their heads and saw a woman standing not far away. Lin Zhi looked at the person on the ground, then at Zhou Congli, seeming a little unbelievable.

Zhou Congli walked over subconsciously: "Why did you come downstairs?"

Lin Zhi explained: "I just finished my meal and came down to take a walk. President, what are you doing..." Her eyes were still on Jin Kaicheng.

Jin Kaicheng didn't dare to speak, and Assistant Zhang didn't interrupt them.

Zhou Congli looked back, not knowing how to explain, afraid of scaring her: "Well, he accidentally fell down." He looked serious.

Jin Kaicheng...

Assistant Zhang... wow.

Lin Zhi... nodded with a look of sudden realization, "So that's how it is. He was too careless to fall on such a flat ground. President, do you want to take them upstairs to talk?"

Zhou Congli: "No, this will be over soon, you go up first, I'll be back soon." He reminded, "Go slowly on the way."

Lin Zhi could only nod: "Okay. Then I'll go upstairs first." She looked back at the unlucky person who fell, then turned around and went upstairs.

Zhou Congli watched her enter the stairwell before turning around.

Assistant Zhang was full of questions. He knew that Lin Zhi was staying at the president's place that day. Did she not leave? He also felt that the president's attitude towards Lin Zhi was not right.

Zhou Congli stared at Jin Kaicheng, looking down at him. The man had already lost his patience.

"Actually, even if you didn't tell me, I would have guessed who it was."

Jin Kaicheng's pupils trembled as he thought of the woman who had just appeared. It was obvious that President Zhou had almost finished his investigation and just wanted to ask him for an answer.

He gave up resistance and hung his head dejectedly: "Boss Zhou, I said, it was Mr. Zhou Er."

There was no expression on Zhou Congli's face, but it became even colder.

Assistant Zhang????

I couldn't believe what I heard, Second Young Master?

Scheming against the CEO and sending his girlfriend to his own brother's bed? Crazy, right?

He couldn't help but glance at his president: "Jin Kaicheng, you have to be responsible for your words. Zhou Ershao is the president's younger brother. Are you sure that man is him?" Although Zhou Ye did have an affair with the president's fiancée, it was still a bit shocking to send a woman to his own brother.

Jin Kaicheng looked at Zhou Congli and said, "Mr. Zhou, everything I said is true. You can check it out."

"At that time, Young Master Zhou said he wanted to give you a woman. I thought it was no big deal, so I did it. I didn't expect..." If he had known that Zhou Congli would pursue the matter, he would not have dared to agree.

Zhou Congli laughed sarcastically: "Okay, get out of here." Assistant Zhang quickly kicked Jin Kaicheng, signaling him to get up and get in the car.

After getting in the car, Jin Kaicheng grabbed Assistant Zhang and asked, "What does Mr. Zhou mean? Did you let me go?"

Assistant Zhang rolled his eyes at him and said, "What are you dreaming about? Of course I'll take you to the police station. Do you think you can just walk away from a big CEO like nothing happened? You're dreaming. By the way, who was that woman that night? Do you remember?"

He has been looking for it recently, but after asking all the hotel staff, he still couldn't find a suitable suspect.

Jin Kaicheng regretted it immediately when he found out that he still had to go to the police station. "It was that girl just now. Didn't you see her?" He said with a bitter face, "Is there really no room for easing this matter? I have already told you what I know, and I don't want any money. It was Young Master Zhou who did this. Can't you just let me go?"

Assistant Zhang was already dumbfounded at this point: "What did you say? The girl just now?"

Jin Kaicheng felt so regretful when he thought that he might go to jail that he didn't care what he asked and just immersed himself in his own emotions.

Assistant Zhang turned his head to look at the high-end residential complex in front of him. Jin Kaicheng meant that Lin Zhi was the girl who entered the president's room that night?
!!!

I never expected it.

However, the jeweled cufflink had already clearly told them that the person they were looking for was right beside them.

But he and the president were completely in the dark about the matter and, knowing that she was Zhou Ye's girlfriend, they immediately ruled out Lin Zhi as a possibility.

Assistant Zhang: “…”

Suddenly he thought of the baby in Lin Zhi's belly, which means - his CEO's?
He slapped his head and realized that his suspicion in City C was correct. It was clearly his boss's son.

Linzhi was in so much pain that he couldn't eat anything.

He was happy. Although the process was tortuous, it was not bad that his president became a father overnight. And don't think he couldn't see that the president was obviously interested in Lin Zhi.

Although he always said that he did it for Zhou Ye's sake, which tyrant would run around for his brother's ex-girlfriend? Especially when he saw Lin Zhi breaking down and crying because of her pregnancy, anyone with a discerning eye could see the pain in her eyes, and he was probably the only one who didn't know it.

But now Li Ruoyao has been involved with Zhou Ye for a long time, and the two of them betrayed him, so the president is really unlucky.

——And Zhou Ye’s behavior is really confusing. He actually sent his girlfriend to his eldest brother’s bed. What was he thinking!
-
Zhou Congli opened the door, changed his shoes and walked into the living room. He saw that the TV was on and Linzhi was sleeping on the sofa.

He walked over, took the remote control from her hand, turned down the volume of the TV, and then covered her with a blanket. Lin Zhi opened her eyes hazily and grabbed his sleeve: "President? You're back?"

"Yeah." Zhou Congli looked at her and said, "Go to your room and sleep. It's easy to catch a cold here."

Lin Zhi yawned slightly: "It's okay, the temperature in the living room is just right, I'm not cold." She smiled and looked at him, "I didn't expect the president would hit someone."

Zhou Congli: “…Did you see it?” Afraid that she would misunderstand, he explained, “Today that person did something very excessive, and I couldn’t help it, so I kicked him.”

Lin Zhi nodded: "I know, the president is so nice, he must be wrong. But next time don't do it on the street, if someone takes a picture and posts it online, your reputation will be ruined."

Seeing that she was worried about him, Zhou Congli smiled and said, "Okay, I'll pay attention next time."

Lin Zhi suddenly said, "You look better when you smile like this." She raised her hand and stroked the crease between his eyebrows. "They are just too mean. Don't worry about them. It's not worth it."

She had a gentle smile on her face and looked at him with inclusive eyes.

"You look particularly sad tonight."

Zhou Congli's heart trembled, and he couldn't help but hold her hand, his throat moving slightly: "Linzhi..."
