81: Chapter 80 Auspicious Wife, the Timely News of Death

That night, Lin Feng did not discuss physics in depth with Qin Yu.

After returning home and showering, the two slept in each other's arms.

He slept so soundly that it felt like an eternity; it was a full twenty-plus hours before Lin Feng woke up.

Feeling the side of the bed, the sheets were still warm, and there was a faint, lingering fragrance in the air—the scent that belonged uniquely to Qin Yu.

She must have just gotten up not long ago.

Footsteps and the sound of clutter being moved came from the living room.

Lin Feng put on his clothes, walked out of the bedroom, and was stunned.

The once cluttered living room had been completely transformed.

Several large bags filled with trash were sitting by the door.

The tables and chairs were spotless, and even the bathroom was much cleaner.

The dirty clothes he had tossed into the basin were all hanging on the balcony.

Qin Yu was mopping the floor. Seeing the beads of sweat on her face, she must have been cleaning for a long time.

"Why are you up? Go back to sleep for a while."

"Even if you are up, why are you cleaning? You've already spent a week in the hospital; you should be resting properly."

Qin Yu looked up and saw Lin Feng was awake. She hurriedly put down the mop and wiped her hands on her apron.

"Lin Feng, go brush your teeth. I've cooked some food; it's just in time for lunch."

Lin Feng was pushed into the bathroom by Qin Yu. When he came out, a table full of dishes was already laid out: sweet and sour pork ribs, braised crucian carp, stir-fried clams, steamed oysters with garlic vermicelli, stir-fried kidney with chives, stir-fried greens, and pork rib and winter melon soup.

"You made so many dishes?"

"You're so busy with work, and you've been worrying and working hard for my mother's sake, so you need to eat more."

"I need to catch up on my studies over the next few days. Once I'm done, I'll come help you."

She wiped the sweat from her forehead, her face beaming with a smile.

Lin Feng stared, dumbstruck; he had never seen Qin Yu look so relaxed.

She seemed to have a bit more youthful vitality than when he had first met her over a month ago.

Moreover, it gave him a strange feeling.

It was as if he were a husband who had been busy all day, returning home to see a table of delicious food prepared by his wife, and all his fatigue vanished instantly.

"Come, try my cooking."

She ladled a bowl of rib soup for Lin Feng.

"It smells so good."

Lin Feng took a whiff, his appetite whetted. He took a sip and his eyes lit up.

"You really know how to cook."

"When my mom was diagnosed, there was no one at home to take care of things. I cooked for two months before school started; I taught myself."

She rested her chin in her hands, looking at Lin Feng with a smile.

"Not bad, it's delicious."

Lin Feng was genuinely hungry; he ate three bowls of rice in one go and finished most of the dishes on the table.

Seeing that Lin Feng liked the food she made so much, Qin Yu was incredibly happy.

"Eat slowly. If you like it, I'll make it for you every day from now on."

Lin Feng looked up, his gaze sweeping over Qin Yu, who was staring at him intently.

[Qin Yu, relaxed, the weight lifted from her heart, Gratitude: 100, Adoration: 100, Worship: 100, possesses an angelic face and outstanding ability, Housekeeping Ability: 100, Work Ability: 100, Support Effect for you: 100, capable both inside and outside the home, her help can save you 20 years of detours, besides putting you in a good mood, she can also bring you astonishing wealth, Metaphysical term: Lucky Wife.]

Heavens, letting me be reborn, I really am here to be the Chosen One.

Not only did I get a Golden Finger, but every woman I meet is more outstanding than the last.

"Xiao Yu..."

Qin Yu was startled, snapping out of her trance with a flushed face.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Thank you, Qin Yu. I can't give you any promises, but as long as you need me, I will always appear by your side at the first moment."

"I understand, Lin Feng. Don't feel pressured. You are so outstanding; what right do I have to monopolize you?"

"I just want to help you well, so that when we are old in the future, I can have someone to rely on."

Lin Feng was speechless; she was just too easygoing.

His potential really was that of a scumbag.

After the meal, Qin Yu cleaned up the dishes and headed back to school.

Lin Feng had wanted to drive her, but Qin Yu refused.

She was very sensible and knew Lin Feng was busy with work.

A woman should stand behind the man she loves to help him solve problems, not create them.

Lin Feng felt a bit ashamed, as he had an appointment today; Liu Yan had asked him to go to the company at 3:00 PM.

By 2:00 PM, AVIC Integration had already hit its third daily limit increase in 15 days.

The AVIC Integration shares he had purchased should have been sold off; having made several million, Liu Yan would definitely need to discuss things with him.

After tidying up in the afternoon, Lin Feng left after 2:00 PM, driving his newly bought BMW to Kaisheng Finance.

On the other side, Wang Jun, who was working at the company, suddenly sat up straight in his chair.

He leaned his face toward the computer screen in shock and uncertainty, his eyes flickering.

An overseas news headline appeared before him, related to the Wang family.

[Breaking News! This morning, in a river channel in northern Myanmar, local residents discovered the body of an adult male. According to the local police chief, after investigation, homicide has been ruled out; it is currently determined to be an accidental drowning. It is worth noting that the deceased's identity is somewhat special—he is suspected to be the younger brother of the Wansheng Group chairman. Local authorities have contacted Chinese police; please stay tuned for updates.]

Below was a photo of the deceased. Wang Jun would recognize the person in the photo even if he were turned to ashes; wasn't this his second uncle?

"Supervisor Wang, the Chairman wants you to come to his office."

"I understand."

The employees outside the door looked terrified, obviously having seen the news.

The sound of footsteps in the company was deafening, all heading toward the Chairman's office.

When Wang Jun arrived at the office, three police officers were already there.

Wang Jianyun looked calm, his emotions stable, his eyes cold and severe, mixed with grief and anger.

Wang Jun naturally knew that his father was faking it; if he didn't even have that much acting skill, he wouldn't need to be the chairman.

"I don't believe my brother's death was an accident; he must have been murdered."

"Mr. Wang, please calm down."

"The local police and our forensic experts have examined the body. There was a large amount of alcohol in the deceased's system; he likely fell into the river by accident. There is no evidence of homicide."

"Additionally, the deceased, Wang Jiancheng, used an unconventional route to leave the country."

"What do you mean?"

"Smuggling."

"Impossible. My brother has a passport; why would he smuggle himself out?"

"This matter may be related to the previous case involving Li He."

"Li He?"

"That's right. He retracted his confession inside, claiming he was threatened by Wang Jiancheng and thus took on all the blame."

"Based on his testimony, we have determined that the deceased fled to northern Myanmar because he feared the food poisoning case would affect him."

Wang Jianyun was grief-stricken, his expression as if his own father had died.

"Second brother, why were you so foolish? If you had any grievances, you could have just told me. Why did you have to go to such extremes?"

"Dad, don't be too sad; take care of your health."

Wang Jun walked into the office, his face also wearing a look of sorrow.

"Xiao Jun, your second uncle is dead, drowned. That was my own brother."
