Financial success and romantic happiness

Lin Chuan's heart skipped a beat.

He was just trying to relieve Wu Min's ankle pain; he never expected her to do something like this.

Lin Chuan's heart was pounding; he could even hear his own heartbeat.

Wu Min tried to pull her foot back, but in her confusion and passion, she felt as if she were out of control.

Lin Chuan acted impulsively, grabbed Wu Min's small feet, and then took the opportunity to lie on top of her.

Lin Chuan could hear his own heavy breathing.

Wu Min suddenly regained her composure, quickly pulled her foot back, and laughed, "Lin Chuan, what are you doing?"

Lin Chuan regained his composure and said awkwardly, "It's nothing, Sister Min, are you alright now?"

Wu Min nodded shyly, "Mmm!"

Just as the atmosphere was becoming increasingly awkward, Lin Chuan's phone suddenly rang. He immediately took it out and saw that it was his cousin-in-law, Qin Rou, calling.

Lin Chuan immediately pressed the answer button, feeling much of the awkwardness dissipate. He then asked curiously, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"

Qin Rou asked curiously over the phone, "Xiao Chuan, what's going on? Why haven't you come back yet?"

Lin Chuan said, "Sister-in-law, I'll be back right away. I have some urgent business to attend to here, and I'll head back as soon as I'm done."

Qin Rou said, "Then come back soon. I can't sleep if you don't come back."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chuan couldn't help but feel a pang of tenderness. His cousin-in-law was still waiting for him to return, while he had almost had a relationship with Wu Min just now.

Lin Chuan realized he had been too impulsive, so he quickly replied, "Okay, I'll get back right away."

Lin Chuan hung up the phone, and Wu Min looked at him curiously: "I just heard something that sounded like a woman."

Lin Chuan said, "She's my cousin-in-law. I'm living with her now, and she's urging me to go back."

Wu Min said helplessly, "Then you should go back. Your cousin-in-law is waiting for you at home."

Lin Chuan hurriedly said, "I'm just temporarily staying at my cousin's house. I just came to Jiangcheng from the town and I don't know anyone here, so my mother asked my cousin to take care of me."

Wu Min said, "Then you should hurry back, it's getting late."

Lin Chuan nodded, but he was puzzled.

After all, he didn't know why Wu Min had been so agitated just now.

Perhaps it was due to being confused and infatuated.

Lin Chuan didn't think too much about it after that, and left after saying goodbye to Wu Min.

Lin Chuan quickly returned to Qin Rou's residence, where he saw Qin Rou sitting on the sofa like a fool, squinting at him: "Why do you smell so good? It's not men's cologne, it must be a woman's scent."

Lin Chuan was taken aback, not expecting that Qin Rou could even smell this.

Lin Chuan knew there was no point in lying, so he told the truth: "It was a female colleague from my class. She was driving me home at night, but someone bumped into her at the entrance of the community. I saw that she was inconvenienced, so I took her home. That's probably why I smelled like her."

Qin Rou smiled, her eyes narrowing, and asked, "What's your name?"

Lin Chuan said, "Call her Wu Min."

Qin Rou then asked, "Where do you live?"

Lin Chuan asked in surprise, "Sister-in-law, you...?"

Qin Rou smiled and said, "It's nothing. I was just asking. I'm your cousin-in-law. You're dating a girl now, so of course I have to find out."

Lin Chuan quickly said, "No, sister-in-law, we're not dating, we're just colleagues."

Qin Rou smiled and said, "It's okay. You're not young anymore, and you look so energetic. It's normal for young girls to like you. I just wanted to know more about you. Don't be nervous."

Lin Chuan could tell that his cousin-in-law Qin Rou was not as simple as she seemed.

If he hadn't revealed Wu Min's address, she probably would have been able to find it through some means.

Lin Chuan then told Wu Min her address.

After listening, Qin Rou smiled and said, "Xiao Chuan, don't overthink it. I'm just trying to find out more. Don't feel pressured."

Lin Chuan smiled; he didn't want to think about it anymore.

A lot happened that day, and he was a little tired.

Lin Chuan said, "Sister-in-law, I'm a little tired too. I'm going to wash up and go to bed."

Qin Rou smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go get you a bath towel. You should go to bed early after you're done showering."

Lin Chuan nodded. A lot had indeed happened that day. He wanted to take a shower and go to bed to sort things out. He was a little tired and didn't want to think about it too much at the moment.

Soon, it was 8:30 a.m. the next day.

Lin Chuan had already packed up. Since Longteng Company required employees to clock in before 9 o'clock, Lin Chuan naturally didn't want to be late, so he hurriedly said goodbye to Qin Rou and left the house.

At 8:40 a.m., Wu Min was riding her electric bike as usual on a road near Longteng Company when a woman's voice suddenly called out from behind her: "Wu Min."

Wu Min felt very strange, so she put both feet on the ground and stopped the electric car. When she turned around, she saw a woman with long hair standing next to a black car. The woman had bright eyes and white teeth, and her lips were light pink. She was definitely a great beauty. Wu Min looked puzzled.

Wu Min didn't recognize the woman opposite her, little did she know that this woman was Qin Rou.

It's very simple for Qin Rou to find out information about Wu Min.

She waited for Wu Min on the road Wu Min always took to work, also wanting to see what this woman who had captivated Lin Chuan last night looked like.

Qin Rou walked over to Wu Min, extended her fair hand, and said with a smile, "Hello, my name is Qin Rou, I am Lin Chuan's cousin-in-law."

Wu Min's eyes widened: "Oh, I know, Lin Chuan told me about you last night, saying he's living with you now."

Qin Rou smiled and said, "Yes, he came from a small town and is new to Jiangcheng. He doesn't know anything, so it's only natural for me, as his cousin-in-law, to take care of him."

Wu Min smiled and said, "Lin Chuan is so lucky to have a cousin-in-law like you."

Qin Rou smiled and said, "I came here today to get to know you. Xiao Chuan is a kind person at heart. I know you are his colleagues, so I hope you can take care of him and help him grow quickly."

Wu Min could tell from Qin Rou's tone and expression that Qin Rou seemed a little wary of her.

This kind of wariness is like that between rivals in love.

Although Wu Min sensed it, she didn't express it and smiled, "Don't worry, Sister Qin, I will definitely take good care of him. Lin Chuan is very smart and also knows medicine, which is very commendable."

Qin Rou raised an eyebrow: "Really? It seems he's been showcasing his medical skills at the company?"

Wu Min smiled and said, "Yes, he cured an old master's ankle. He's very good, and many colleagues have a good impression of him."

Qin Rou smiled and said, "Then I'm relieved. Okay, I won't keep you from going to work. I have to go to work too, so goodbye."

Wu Min quickly replied, "Okay, be careful on the road."

Qin Rou immediately drove away, while a glint of malice flashed in Wu Min's eyes.

Why does Qin Rou seem to be showing off to her? Could it be that she also likes Lin Chuan?

Wu Min shook her head, deciding not to think about it anymore.

Soon, Wu Min arrived at the office.

Lin Chuan arrived at the office first, and upon seeing Wu Min, he immediately greeted her, "Sister Min, you're here?"

Wu Min also smiled at Lin Chuan and asked, "You didn't get scolded by your cousin-in-law last night, did you?"

Lin Chuan was taken aback; he hadn't expected Wu Min to ask such a question.

But he immediately replied with a smile, "No, I was too tired last night, so I just washed up and went to sleep when I got home."

Wu Min laughed and said, "Me too. After you left, I suddenly felt very tired. I washed up and fell asleep quickly."

Lin Chuan laughed, but just as he was about to speak, the office door was suddenly pushed open again, and Lin Chuan felt a chilling aura wash over him.

He quickly turned his head to look at the office door and, sure enough, saw Zhang Mingde standing with his hands behind his back, looking at him with a cold gaze.

Lin Chuan knew that Zhang Mingde must have been very unhappy last night, but he couldn't let Zhang Mingde find fault with him on the surface, so he stood up and smiled, "Manager Zhang, good morning."

Wu Min nodded coldly to Zhang Mingde: "Good morning, Manager Zhang."

Zhang Mingde didn't say anything, and walked towards his private office with a cold face.

Lin Chuan could sense the hatred Zhang Mingde harbored towards him.

Zhang Mingde had indeed come up with a plan to mess with Lin Chuan. He was determined to make sure Lin Chuan failed his probation period and was eventually fired by the company.
