Their bodies were firmly against each other's, leaving no room in between them.

Chen could feel the shocking softness of her firm breasts against his chest, and he could smell her skin and hair, which was so soft and sweet, like dripping honey.

"Chen, Thank you!"

Lin Xiang's lips were in his ear, and she whispered, "If it wasn't for you, Lin Nan and I would already have fallen into the abyss – beyond redemption! Thank you so much…"

"It's nothing. I already told you that I would bear all your burdens."

Chen rubbed her back gently. Even though he spoke with much seriousness, his mind was already indulging in a fantasy.

In fact, if Chen's mind had not gone there while this extraordinarily stunning woman was pressed against his body, Chen would have to go see the male fertility specialist.

"I don't know how I could ever repay you. If you don't mind… From today onwards, I am your woman…" Lin's voice was as delicate as the tinkling of silver bells.

Because she was nervous, she had unconsciously tugged on Chen's shirt, causing their bodies to come closer.

What the f*ck!

Chen had a look of ecstasy on his face.

Lin actually said such a thing!

This was just too freaking awesome!

"Unless I have been kicked in the head by a donkey, I would never be able to reject a beautiful woman such as you!" Chen was extremely excited.

Before he could say anything else, Lin's lips were already on his.

Oh my god!

Forcefully kissed by Lin?!

Chen's entire body seized up. A strong burning desire coursed through his body.

But almost immediately, he realized that something was not right. Even though Lin had initiated the kiss, in reality, she had no idea on how to do it right.

She was pecking on Chen's mouth, like a bird pecking at grains. Chen did not know whether to laugh or to cry.

At this critical moment, Chen had to be the one to teach her on how to kiss properly!

Chen parted his lips and began to use his tongue to launch an offensive attack.

At first, he was met with some resistance – Lin even bit his tongue once.

But, fear was not a trait that a pioneer should have.

Chen remained patient, even though it was a difficult challenge. After a few attempts, trying to pry open Lin's lips, his tongue finally slipped into her mouth.

Lin was a blank canvas in these waters: she had absolutely no experience.

Luckily, Lin was intuitive.

With Chen's careful correction, she quickly learned to react and harmonize with him. She would even occasionally take the lead.

When lovers kiss, it's sweeter than honey and more fragrant than flowers.

They kissed and they kissed until they both ended up in the car.

But right at the climax, Lin suddenly announced that she was having her period.

Damn it!

Chen wanted to cry, but there were no tears.

What could he do? So, they could only stop whatever they were doing and sat in the car, discussing life, their dreams. They would just have to wait for another day before resuming the battle.

Chen went back to school and slept till dawn.

The next day, Chen made an appointment to meet Jing Fei.

The stocky man seemed to have grown taller compared three days ago, but it wasn't very apparent. It seems that heavenly dog food's effect was most evident, only on the first day.

"How is it— the matter that I asked you to investigate?" Chen asked.

"Your suspicions are correct: There is something very wrong with the female cop!"

Jing Fei explained carefully, "Based on my findings, her joining in the force was very sudden. Nobody knows her background. I also sneaked into archives of the Green Vine police station, but there was nothing on her at all. But one thing is for sure – she has taken over the Dafeng jewelry theft case!"

Chen nodded his head, "So this all leads to us. Thank God you have gone through a major transformation. They have nothing to pin us on. There's nothing to worry about."

"But this would make it even harder to sell your jewelry," Jing Fei said worriedly.

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, right now, I'm not short on money. I will think of a solution when the Dafeng jewelry shop's renovation has been completed," Chen said calmly.

Jing Fei nodded and said, "The renovation company has already started work. The bungalow and the jewelry shop are both under renovation, simultaneously. I believe that it wouldn't take long to complete."

"Em… Very good. Once the bungalow is ready, I will bring my parents over." Chen nodded satisfactorily and continued, "Oh, there is another thing I want you to look into."

"Boss Chen, just give me the order." Jing Fei said reverently.

"I want to find out the relationships between the Wen family members," Chen gave a stern gaze and said, "Three days ago, Wen Feng sent his people to cut off my arm, but Wenyuan alerted the police to save me. There must be something more behind this."

When Jing Fei heard this, he chuckled, "There's no need to look into this matter. When I was standing next to Shi Dafeng, I heard a rumor."

"Oh? Do tell." Chen was all-ears.

"Old Man Wen has two sons. The first, Wen Tianyuan, is currently the president of the Wen organization; the second, Wen Tiandou, is said to have been practicing atrial arts in Dragon City.

Jing Fei said, "Wenyuan is Wen Tianyuan's daughter – the eldest child and the eldest grandchild. Unfortunately, she is a girl. So, Old Man Wen chose Wen Tiandou's son, Wenfeng, the next person in line, to succeed him! This was actually undisputed. But as he grew, Wenfeng became a useless teenager, and Old Man Wen grew to dislike him. So, he has considered making Wenyuan his heir instead!"

"When Wen Tianyuan saw that there was hope for his daughter, he began to actively fight for the opportunity to inherit the family's fortune. Wen Tiandou and his son are planning to retaliate, their relationship has become as irreconcilable as water and fire. They have had numerous under-the-table fights. It is said that there will great chaos in the family when Wen Tiandou returns from the City of Dragon, in the near future.

Jing Fei understood such matters very well. He managed to tell Chen every single detail, and it answered Chen's doubts.

"So Wenyuan came on to me – hugging me and trying to win me over, because she was fighting to get her family's legacy!" Chen could not help but sigh, "These rich people are so sad. Family becoming enemies, daughters offering her bodies to strangers, without a care about her dignity. All this just for the sake of getting the inheritance…"

Jing Fei thought for a while and asked, "Boss Chen, there is something that I really cannot understand: What did Wenyuan see in you that she was actually willing to embrace?"

When Chen heard this, he was startled and said, "That's a very good question! I have no power, and I have no influence here. I only have a small fortune – compared to Wen family, I'm just a small fish in the sea. What in the world caused her to approach me?"

*Ring!*

Just then, Chen's phone suddenly rang.

The screen showed that it was an unknown number. Wenyuan's voice was heard when the call was picked up.

Her voice was very delicate and sweet, but at this moment, it was filled with urgency, "Chen! Can you come over to my place? My grandfather's sickness is acting up! Come and save him…"

When she said this, the reason for her initiation of the hug became clear.

Chen could preserve Old Man Wen's life. With Chen on her side, she could easily win the fight for the family's fortune. Her chances of winning would be higher.

"Alright. Give me your address. I will go there now."

Chen has no interest at all concerning Wen family's inner conflicts, but when it came to saving Old Man Wen's life, he had to go.
