My mother-in-law is remarrying and wants my family's assets as dowry. Die!

Because of He Lanlan's insistence, Fang Shu had no choice but to give up.

However, Fang Shu still suggested a small gathering, which He Lanlan agreed to.

Lin Jun went to the kitchen to cook, while Fang Shu chatted with He Lanlan in the living room of the villa.

He Lanlan then asked Fang Shu, "Sister, I have a question for you. Does your husband really have no other relatives?"

Fang Shu shook her head: "There probably aren't any. My husband's parents died early, and his grandfather passed away when he was in high school. Moreover, my husband's father was an only child, and they don't have many collateral relatives; they rarely keep in touch!"

The confusion and bewilderment in He Lanlan's eyes were fleeting.

In fact, He Lanlan had just received a message from her younger brother, He Ru.

An examination of Lin Jun's social relationships revealed no suspicious points.

He Lanlan felt that the whole thing was even more bizarre!

Could it be that the investigation approach is flawed, or that the direction of thinking is wrong?

Of course, at this time, no one thought that the focus of the investigation should be on Lin Jun's mother.

Seeing He Lanlan remain silent, Fang Shu asked, "Lanlan, has something happened?"

He Lanlan did not reveal her brother's investigation, since it was something she had done privately and had not achieved any results. Revealing it would only cause Fang Shu unnecessary trouble.

She then smiled and said, "Sis, it's nothing else, I just wanted to remind you to be extra careful lately!"

Fang Shu nodded: "I'll be extra careful, and you should be careful too. Don't leave the factory area unless absolutely necessary! For your safety, I've taken strict precautions to maintain confidentiality, and I've repeatedly emphasized this to your assistant!"

He Lanlan suddenly felt that the atmosphere of the conversation was too oppressive, so she changed the subject and deliberately found some lighthearted things to talk about.

Fang Shu was well aware of He Lanlan's intentions, and therefore cooperated fully.

The atmosphere of their conversation instantly became cheerful.

The two little girls chattered away, making quite a racket. Lin Jun was busy in the kitchen, and listening to their cheerful laughter, she couldn't help but feel extremely relaxed.

Soon, Lin Jun brought out four dishes.

The three of them ate and chatted.

He Lanlan tasted each dish and couldn't help but exclaim, "President Lin's cooking skills are truly exceptional! Although it can't compare to the chefs of top-tier restaurants, the flavors are absolutely unique. I really love it!"

Lin Jun responded with a smile: "I'm glad you like it. I was worried it wouldn't suit your taste. After all, people like you who are used to Western food might have stomachs that are different from ours."

Upon hearing this, He Lanlan immediately began to complain: "You have no idea, the food we eat abroad is simply inhuman. All kinds of white food are so sweet, it's so sweet it's like I'm going to explode. It's so hard to find some of our own hometown dishes that haven't been modified and are still authentic."

"Many hometown dishes have been modified to include sugar, lots of sugar! I don't know how they got changed like that. Although you have to adapt to local customs, these dishes no longer suit my taste. That's why I was so pleasantly surprised when I ate Mr. Lin's cooking!"

Lin Jun didn't want to say much, so he just smiled and remained silent.

Fang Shu said, "Once our new generation of smart home products is launched, I'll have my husband prepare a lavish celebration feast for you, our great contributor! He has to cook it himself!"

He Lanlan immediately agreed: "I think this suggestion is excellent, and it's exactly what President Lin should have done. I'm really looking forward to that day!"

Lin Jun nodded in agreement.

Fang Shu took a bite of her food and said, "Honey, Lanlan and I were just talking about whether you have any other close relatives or family members?"

Without a second thought, Lin Jun shook her head: "My grandfather was an only child, my father was an only child, and I'm still an only child in my generation, so I don't have any relatives!"

He Lanlan thought to herself, "You're not an only child. At least I know you have a younger brother, who is my future husband!"

He Lanlan then followed up with a probing question: "President Lin, you've been in business for so many years. In the process, have you ever had any particular grudges with anyone, especially with powerful figures?"

Lin Jun nodded: "I do indeed have a great grudge against Dongyuan Group!"

He Lanlan pressed further, "President Lin, think about it carefully again. Besides Dongyuan Group, are there any other people with whom you have any grudges, especially those who are larger and more powerful than Dongyuan Group?"

Lin Jun thought carefully for a moment and shook his head: "There might be some friction with people in the business world, but to say that someone is more powerful than Dongyuan Group, that's not true, really not!"

Having asked this far, He Lanlan felt it was best not to ask anything further, and her heart was filled with even more confusion!

Fang Shu acted as a lubricant at the dinner, skillfully changing the subject: "Lanlan, actually, my cooking skills are quite good too. Tomorrow I'll personally cook a few dishes for you, I guarantee you'll rave about them, maybe even more so than you would about my husband!"

He Lanlan chuckled and said, "If you, sister, were to cook for me, I would definitely give it a better rating than anyone else. However, I don't recommend that you cook at this time, because the fumes in the kitchen can be very harmful to the fetus. So it's better for you to stay away from the kitchen!"

Lin Jun also said, "Indeed, the fumes from cooking oil aren't very healthy!"

Fang Shu didn't care: "I'm a doctor, I know that, and the kitchen range hood works very well, not a single trace of oil fumes leaks out, so cooking once in a while is no problem at all!"

He Lanlan then went along with it, saying, "Then I look forward to the day when you, sister, will show off your skills and let me have a good meal!"

Lin Jun smiled as he looked at his beautiful wife.

Just as Fang Shu was about to speak, her phone rang. She took out her phone and saw that it was Fan Ping calling.

Without even thinking, Fang Shu rejected the call!

Immediately afterwards, I switched my phone to silent mode.

Fang Shu smiled and explained to He Lanlan, "It's just a minor phone call, don't disturb our meal!"

He Lanlan simply nodded and didn't ask any further questions.

The three of them had a very pleasant dinner.

Then He Lanlan suggested that she want Fang Shu to accompany her.

Fang Shu looked at Lin Jun for his opinion.

Lin Jun smiled and nodded in agreement.

He Lanlan immediately cheered, "Sister, let's sleep in the same bed tonight and have a good chat, okay?"

Fang Shu teased, "Then you must behave yourself when you sleep, and don't disturb your little nephew in my belly!"

He Lanlan made an exaggerated salute: "Please rest assured, sister, I promise I'll behave myself!"
