The Domineering Chief Dotes on His Wife

Chapter 390: No exaggeration, just the truth

After Lin Jiaran changed her clothes, Lu Jingshen took her downstairs. Lin Jiaran's clothes were packed in a box, which Lu Jingshen held in his hand.

"Are we leaving again?" Lin Jiaran asked when going downstairs.

"Well, planes tend to attract attention, so let's get out of here by car."

Zuo Nai and his companions were standing in a neat row downstairs waiting, each of them still holding their suitcases.

There was another outsider waiting with Sana and the others. He was a middle-aged foreign man wearing a long-tailed suit and looked to be around 40 or 50 years old.

"Mr. Lu, the car is ready, please follow me!" When Lu Jingshen walked downstairs, the man spoke to him politely in American English.

"Thank you. Please thank Mr. Charles for everything tonight!" Lu Jingshen stopped and said politely with a slight smile.

They were able to leave the cruise ship smoothly tonight because Charles secretly revealed the news to Lu Jingshen in advance. Lu Jingshen had made preparations in advance. The manor where they stayed was also Charles' private manor. The helicopter flying in the air was too conspicuous and it was not suitable to leave for a safe place.

Charles had already made preparations for them and provided them with a special car.

There were two cars in total, one for the four bodyguards and one for Zuo Nai. Lu Jingshen and Lin Jiaran sat in the back seat, and Susan sat in the co-pilot seat. Both cars were equipped with wireless communication signal devices, which allowed Lu Jingshen to give orders to the other four people at any time.

The car was driving towards where they were going.

Lin Jiaran sat quietly in her seat, without asking them where they were going next or what they should do at this moment. She believed that Lu Jingshen knew the answer and could protect himself.

Lu Jingshen turned his head to look at Lin Jiaran who was sitting quietly, and stretched out one of his hands to hold the hand that Lin Jiaran placed on her leg. The big hand that usually held hers was always warm, but at this moment it made her feel a little cold. Lin Jiaran turned her head to look out the window.

When Lin Jiaran turned around, Lu Jingshen slowly said, "The place we are going to now is the casino!"

"Yeah!" Lin Jiaran nodded in response.

Lu Jingshen looked at Lin Jiaran quietly. After a while, he continued, "I was not the only one involved in what happened five years ago. There was also a man named Vito Simon. He was the one that night. He and I have an agreement. We are going to find him now. He is in Las Vegas."

"If that Cassie finds the casino, where should we go?"

"There will naturally be someone to deal with Cassie. We can just go directly to the casino now."

"Aren't you Charles Cathy's brother? Why would he help us?"

Lin Jiaran knew from Lu Jingshen's words that Cassie was no ordinary woman. She had a powerful family behind her. Charles was her brother, so how could he help outsiders? He was so kind as to take care of all the aftermath for them.

"In the Jonathan family, everyone puts profit first. Only those with power and influence have a chance to survive and control everything. Charles will naturally not let Cassie become a stumbling block to his power. Vito Simon wants to marry Cassie, but Cassie disagrees. Charles has reached a consensus with Vito, and I just went along with it."

"Vito Simon is very concerned about whether I will stay in the United States. If I stay in the United States, it will threaten his interests. Now that I am leaving on my own initiative, he naturally has nothing to say."

"You've already threatened his interests, and we're still going to find him now, won't there be any problems?"

"No, he will still protect us!" Lu Jingshen said with certainty.

"Shouldn't Fan be more careful?" Lin Jiaran didn't quite understand what Lu Jingshen was thinking. She just put herself in Vito Simon's shoes and thought, if she were him, she would definitely doubt whether Lu Jingshen would really leave the United States and would not go to protect him. Would something like the mantis stalks the cicada while the oriole waits behind?

"Don't worry, Mrs. Lu. The situation you described won't happen. The protection I applied for is not ordinary protection. I have made countermeasures long before coming to Ancheng. If anything happens to me, not only the Simon family, but also the Jonathan family will bear the responsibility."

The meaning of this sentence is very clear: it is not ordinary protection. The protection that Lu Jingshen is talking about is not something that Simon and Jonathan's family can resist.

Lin Jiaran began to have doubts. No matter how powerful the Lu family was, it was only limited to Ancheng. The country was so big, there were many talented people, and even more powerful people. Where did Lu Jingshen get such great ability to mobilize such a large protection?

So, Lin Jiaran just looked at Lu Jingshen quietly without saying anything.

"what happened?"

"Aren't you just making this up to comfort me so I won't be afraid?"

"I'm not making this up. I'm telling the truth." Lu Jingshen said calmly.

Lin Jiaran looked unconvinced.

"I'm not the kind of person who's afraid of things. I'm just hiding my talents. There's no need for you to brag to appease me!"

As Mrs. Lu was still not fully aware of his own strength, Lu Jingshen did not say anything more to explain. He let go of his hand, turned on the bright lights in the car, and lifted up with his long arms a suitcase that Zuo Nai had handed to him before getting in the car and placed at his feet.

Lu Jingshen placed the suitcase on his thighs and opened it with the password, revealing a mini self-defense tool inside.

From the outside, you can't tell it's a dangerous thing, it just looks like an expensive-looking lipstick.

After Lu Jingshen put together a complete "lipstick", he held it in his hand and taught Lin Jiaran how to use it correctly to defend herself when encountering danger.

"If an accident happens, will anyone die?"

"It's just to quickly anesthetize the person and make him lose consciousness temporarily. There's no danger to his life!" Lu Jingshen replied.

"That's good. I'm just afraid that I might hurt myself accidentally!" Lin Jiaran put the things on her body with confidence. Anyone who threatens her life is a bad person. She doesn't have the heart of a saint like Mary.

The casino they were going to was thousands of kilometers away from where they were now and required a plane to get there.

They drove to the dedicated airport and were met by someone along the way, then boarded a small private plane.

Cathy looked at the direction the helicopter left at the dock and asked someone to continue tracking it. They found that Lu Jingshen's helicopter was parked outside the manor.

Cathy rushed into the manor with a gun in hand and a group of bodyguards.

"Ms. Cassie!" The man who received Lu Jingshen and others bowed respectfully to Cassie and praised her.

"Where is he?" She had been chasing Lu Jingshen for most of the night but failed to catch up with him. She was suppressing her anger, her eyes were cold, and an extremely terrifying chill emanated from her body.

"I went to Las Vegas!" Seeing what Cassie was holding in her hand, the man trembled a little and answered calmly.

Upon hearing the news that Lu Jingshen had gone to the casino, Cassie left the manor without looking back.
