<h4>The Viin’s Wife 660 Premium Potatoes</h4>


    "Swindling?" Amusement shed in Zhou Jingren’s eyes.


    "Yes president. The Madam seems to enjoy it a lot."


    Zhou Jingren nodded at Secretary Go’s words. Knowing Lily, ckmailing people for money was like a game to her. No wonder Lily was spending more and more time with Qin Yuanfengtely.


    "The Madam caused a lot of chaos at The Peak. Mr. Liu and Mr. He are now at each other’s throat. Mr. He is ming Mr. Liu for tolerating his son’s behavior whereas, Mr. Liu is angry at Mr. He for ming his son when his wife was at fault for seducing Gannon."


    "I see." Zhou Jingren nodded. "Then let her be. Tell her instead ofing here, I will go to Fi Group to have lunch with her." He added before working on hisputer. "Is there something else?"


    "Well... Madam said to closely monitor Miss Chen Shi as she is about tomit murder."


    "Who is she going to kill?"


    Secretary Go instantly started exining what Lily did and how it had seemed to affect Chen Shi’s psychological state. He also told him about Lily’s guess about Chen Shi’s next actions.


    "Did you tell Bei Tian about it?"


    "Yes. He already told our men to follow Chen Shi around. She is in Singapore right now and might be looking for an opportunity to frame someone. The Madam said she is going to frame Thomas Lee. It might be a weak case but it is enough for the shareholders to doubt him."


    "I understand." Zhou Jingren pursed his lips. Lily might make it seem as if she was ying but it was obvious she was using this opportunity to get rid of their enemies and train her brother at the same time. "Have Bei Tian contact Thomas Lee and Jun Liang about it. Let’s set a trap for that woman."


    "Yes President." Secretary Go nodded. When he heard that Lily and Qin Yuanfeng were working together, he already felt the duo were nning to cause chaos everywhere. He was not expecting they would actually make families fight each other as they watched from the sidelines with popcorn in their hands.


    He shook his head inwardly. With Zhou Jingren’s backing, Lily and Qin Yuanfeng could do whatever they want.


    ...


    The Peak


    "It seems you are earning a lot of money these past few days?" Zhou Jingren sat next to Lily. He eyed the news she was reading and smiled. "nning for your next schemes, eh?"


    "What do you take me for? I am not a money grubbing wife, alright?" She snorted and rolled her eyes. "I am a good citizen."


    "Says the swindler."


    "This is not called swindling. This is called grabbing opportunities." Lily said. "Every businessman should have this skill." Turning towards him, Lily nted a quick kiss on Zhou Jingren’s cheeks. "For our future."


    As expected, Zhou Jingren chuckled at her words. "What are you reading?"


    "Africa." Lily answered. "They are one rich continent. Gold, Oil, diamonds. They have all those resources and yet they have the poorest countries in the world."


    "Well... corporates see them only as a mine." He answered. "Are you thinking about that petroleum deal?"


    "Yes, I am." She nodded and turned off her tablet. "I think the possibilities are endless. I mean... the potential of thispany is just... too big. I can’t just ignore it."


    "Then don’t. Why are you stressing yourself about this?"


    In response, Lily let out a sigh. She snuggled into Zhou Jingren’s arms. Breathing his scent, a smile left Lily’s lips. "Yuanfeng is working on the people behind thispany. I will have the file soon."


    "How is he? Your brother?"


    "I wanted to talk to you about this. I think it is better that he works under you instead of me."


    "Why would you say that? He is a very intelligent man."


    "He is! And he is making me feel so dumb." She pouted. "I hate it."


    "But you are not dumb."


    "I know! But... I am not smart either!" She retorted. "Working with him is like a wake up call. Maybe I should study calculus or something that will make me... you know... smarter."


    Zhou Jingren’sughter echoed inside their room. "You know... Yuanfeng must be thinking the same thing. I mean... working with you can be intimidating too."


    "Really?" A sly grin reced Lily’s pout.


    "Of course. You are extremely good at manipting people. You are better than Yuanfeng and I when ites to psychological warfare. I say... we can’t really have everything In this world."


    "So you agree? You agree that I’m dumb?"


    It was as if a bucket of cold water was poured inside Zhou Jingren’s soul. He slowly turned his head towards her and as expected, Lily was indeed ring at him as if he just murdered her cat. "I— I was just saying that— "


    "You just called me dumb. Indirectly!"


    "But... you called yourself dumb first. I was just..."


    "You should have said I’m not dumb!" Lily fired back. "That is basic etiquette."


    "Well... You didn’t tell me you wanted me to lie to you? Aw!" He fought the urge tough at her. However, it was pointless. Lily’s weight gain made her cheeks a little chubbier, cuter. He could not just stop himself fromughing at her pout.


    "We are not sleeping together, until I give birth!" She boldly dered. "You should find someone smarter and more intelligent to cuddle with."


    "Really?" He raised an eyebrow before sighing. "What a waste... I was nning to make French fries using the premium potatoes that we just— "


    "You can’t bribe me with food!"


    "Alright then," He nodded before getting out of the bed. "I will make some potatoes then... sleep on the couch. I’ll see you tomorrow?" He watched as Lily widened her eyes at him, her expression turned from anger to horror before he could even blink.


    "Are you really going to sleep on the couch?" she asked. Disbelief apparent in her eyes. "Really?"
