Rebirth 1983: Building My Business Empire Chapter 472 - 472 460 Calm Down First

Chapter 472: Chapter 460: Calm Down First Chapter 472: Chapter 460: Calm Down First Lu Jiaxin stayed in the small fishing village for three days before returning to Hong Kong. As soon as she got ho, Nie Zhan received the news and imdiately dropped his work to rush over.

He had thought he would be stopped outside the villa, but to his surprise, the bodyguard at the gate let him through as soon as he saw him. However, this action did not relax him.

Nie Zhan arrived in the living room but did not see Lu Jiaxin. He asked the housekeeper, Aunt ng, “Where is Miss Lu?”

Aunt ng was as respectful as ever, slightly bowing as she said, “Sir, Miss Lu has gone upstairs to change her clothes. Please wait here for a mont.”

In the past, Nie Zhan could have gone straight up, but now he could not.

Nie Zhan sat on the sofa and waited, ti ticking by second by second, his heart feeling as if it were being fried in a pan, especially difficult to endure.

“Tap, tap, tap…”

Hearing the familiar sound, Nie Zhan imdiately stood up and, upon seeing the person appearing at the top of the staircase, couldn’t help but say, “Jiaxin, I’m sorry.”

He had thought that it was his enemies who had kidnapped Jiaxin, but he had never expected it to be Kang Huijuan. That madwoman, he didn’t know what Nie Jingshu was thinking to be interested in her. Even if Nie Jingshu had not known about it beforehand, he hated him at this mont.

As Lu Jiaxin ca down the stairs, she said to Nie Zhan with a very calm expression, “Do you know why Kang Huijuan kidnapped ?”

Nie Zhan did not dare to hide it from her and said with difficulty, “I know. She harbored resentnt because I told Grandpa that Nie Jingshu wasn’t suited for business, leading to their huge losses. Jingting doesn’t like her, and she used you to strike and mock her. That’s probably why she resented it, not daring to confront us directly, so she took it out on you.”

Lu Jiaxin had speculated that Kang Huijuan had gone mad out of jealousy, and the reality was not far from her guess, “Nie Zhan, let’s not see each other for a while, to cool down.”

Nie Zhan’s heart sank, and he held Lu Jiaxin’s hand, saying, “Jiaxin, it’s my fault, I didn’t protect you. But rest assured, I promise that nothing like this will happen again.”

Lu Jiaxin spoke rather bluntly, “I had heard before that there’s a lot of trouble in wealthy families, but you told your family got along well. And what happened? Just because of the strife between you, I almost lost my life. Nie Zhan, this ti it was Kang Huijuan who hard . Who will it be next ti? Will it be soone from the Nie family, or a business competitor?”

If it had been Nie Zhan’s enemy or competitor, she would have been angry about being involved but would not have been as furious as now. This incident could truly be described as a disaster without cause. And as for the Nie family, Nie Manli and Nie Manlin also had minds quite unlike others—it was uncertain what troubles they might stir up in the future.

But Nie Zhan couldn’t bear to hear these words. Holding Lu Jiaxin’s hand to his chest, he said, “Jiaxin, don’t say such things, it hurts here.”

“Jiaxin, you can hit or scold , just don’t talk about breaking up.”

Lu Jiaxin tried to pull her hand back but couldn’t, “Nie Zhan, what if this happens again? Brother Gu and Wang Lin almost lost their lives protecting , and Brother Gu is even left disabled. If it happens again, do you think I will still have a life to escape with?”

Nie Zhan quickly shook his head and said, “It won’t happen again, there will never be such a thing. I will hire the best bodyguards in the world to protect you.”

Lu Jiaxin looked at him and said, “Kang Huijuan went to prison because of , will Nie Jingshu hate for it? Will her three children hate ? What if soday I go to your house and they put sothing in my tea or food? Nie Zhan, I only have one life.”

Without hesitation, Nie Zhan replied, “Don’t worry, those three kids will be sent abroad to study in a couple of days, and my elder aunt will accompany them to take care. Once they grow up, we’ll arrange for them to settle abroad. If you’re still worried, we don’t have to go to the old house in the future, I can go back alone.”

“As for Nie Jingshu, take the three kids with you and do not allow her to return to Hong Kong ever again.”

Lu Jiaxin steeled her heart and said, “You go back first! After Kang Huijuan’s case is over, we’ll sit down and talk.”

Having lived her life once again, she cherished it even more, and any factors of instability had to be nipped in the bud. She knew that a wealthy family would have its own disputes, but she had never expected jealousy to lead to murder. She had absolutely no interest in such a wealthy family.

Nie Zhan knew that this was a test of his performance, “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure she spends the rest of her life in prison. Jiaxin, don’t go out during this period, so you won’t be hounded by paparazzi asking questions.”

Lu Jiaxin nodded in agreent.

After Nie Zhan left, Miao Na asked with so incomprehension, “Boss, Kang Huijuan is the one who hurt you, not the boss. Why are you taking your anger out on him?”

Lu Jiaxin replied, “Without him, Kang Huijuan wouldn’t even know who I am, let alone think about kidnapping . He is the root of the trouble, not innocent.”

Seeing her irritated deanor, Miao Na did not dare to continue.

That afternoon, Lu Jiaxin received a call from Zong Shing, who wanted to visit her. Lu Jiaxin guessed it was Nie Zhan who sent her to speak on his behalf, but she did not refuse.

The next day Zong Shing arrived at the Lu Family’s ho, expecting to see her looking haggard; after such an ordeal, she surely must be distressed. To her surprise, Lu Jiaxin’s complexion was rosy and there wasn’t a trace of sorrow on her face.

After welcoming her to sit down, Lu Jiaxin had Aunt ng make her so Kopi Luwak coffee. She had bought these coffees only for entertaining guests; she did not drink them herself.

Zong Shing took a sip of the coffee and then put down the cup before speaking, “My Zhifeng said that you want to break up with Nie Zhan, and he asked to co over and talk to you. Jiaxin, the kidnapping was done by Kang Huijuan, it’s too unfair to him if you break up with him over this incident.”

Lu Jiaxin bowed her head and said softly, “In this world, where is there so much fairness?”

Zong Shing continued to persuade her, “Jiaxin, are you really going to break up with him? You need to think this through, Jiaxin. Nie Zhan is kind and considerate towards you, always indulging you and even investing money for you to earn. After breaking up with him, you may not find a man as good as Nie Zhan.”

Lu Jiaxin did not engage with her suggestion but instead posed a question, “Sister Shing, are you happy?”

Zong Shing was initially startled, but regained her composure and nodded, “I’m very happy!”

Lu Jiaxin smiled, a smile that did not reach her eyes, “Wealthy n in Hong Kong finding other won on the side is the norm, and those who don’t are considered the odd ones out. He is quite good to now, but who can predict the future?”

It wasn’t just the n in Hong Kong; n around the world were the sa. However, she wasn’t afraid of Nie Zhan falling for soone else. Without each other, people could still live their lives, and with her money and looks, it would be easy to find soone even more handso than Nie Zhan. She had proposed a cooldown period to see the Nie family’s stance.

Nie Zhan said that the Nie family wouldn’t affect her, but that was just talk. Once they were married, it was impossible to avoid involvent. Dating was a matter between two people, but marriage was a matter between two families. For such a significant matter, if the Nie family chose to turn a blind eye and remain silent, then she would not continue her relationship with Nie Zhan.

Only then did Zong Shing understand why Lu Jiaxin asked her if she was happy.
