President, Please Be Careful

When Mu Chen heard the question from Zhao Youlin, he paused for a moment, then glanced at Zhao Youlin before looking at the box with the necklace. He looked down, and with a hint of sadness, he said, "This is a memento from Sister Lin."

“Memories?” Zhao Youulin's expression immediately turned strange.

Mu Chen did not pay attention to his expression. He nodded and said, “At that moment, when Sister Lin was shot and taken to the ambulance, this necklace fell from her body. I took it and kept it. Sister Lin liked this necklace the most, and she wore it every day. I've seen it a few times. Then, Sister Lin is ... "

Mu Chen's eyes reddened, and his voice became slightly stifled. Clearly, he remembered what happened back then. He took a deep breath before he could calm down. She continued, “I kept this necklace, and when I brought it, it was as if Sister Lin was still beside me. At that time, I swore that I would definitely work hard and immediately bring the drug dealers who killed Sister Lin to justice so that she could rest in peace. Now, since we caught those people, I can finally return the necklace to its owner.”

As Mu Chen spoke, he calmly placed the box in his hand in front of the tomb, then bowed to it before he left with An Kexin.

In order to prevent these two from suspecting anything, Zhao Youlin walked with them for a while before she bid farewell to them and parted with them.

But in truth, Zhao Youlin did not leave the grave with them. Instead, he walked back from another path and returned in front of his grave.

Zhao Youlin did not know why she had returned to this place. Before the tomb, the beautiful fox lilies swayed slightly due to the gentle breeze, and they looked very beautiful.

The picture on the tombstone was of her as she wore a police uniform, and she smiled.

Zhao Youlin stared at the familiar but unfamiliar face in the picture, and she was filled with complicated feelings.

A few months ago, if someone told him that he would stand before his grave as someone else, he would definitely think that the person was insane.

But now, he stood before his grave and looked at the portrait of the deceased. Mind empty.

After a long time, Zhao Youlin suddenly bowed, picked up the box with the necklace in front of the tombstone, put it in her pocket, and left without hesitation.

Behind him, the white fox oxtail lilies still swayed slowly in the wind as sunlight shone on the faces of the dead on the tombstone.

Zhao Youlin had stayed too long in the grave, so much so that the driver assigned to wait for her started to become anxious.

He would run back and check if something had happened to Zhao Youlin when he saw her walking slowly towards him from a place not far away.

"MST. Youlin.” The driver poked his head out of the car window and gestured to Zhao Youlin.

Zhao Youlin smiled and stepped up. He opened the car door and sat inside.

“I suddenly hit something, so I was held for a while. I made you wait.”

When the driver heard Zhao Youlin say this, he quickly said, "You're not. But did you experience anything good inside, Miss Youlin?”

Her driver was always talkative, and she knew that most of the time, the oldest woman was not as difficult to serve the other women in the Zhao family. Although he sometimes showed a frightening presence, he was often quite easy to talk to. So, she did not act with full influence and laughed boldly as she said, “I just felt something different about you after you came out, but I can't really understand it. It's just that I suddenly feel like you're okay like this. You no longer look as cold and distant as before, as you do not fit.”

Zhao Youlin found herself unable to say anything for a long time after she heard what the driver said. After some time, he put his elbow on the car window sill and propped his chin up in his hand as he looked outside. He muttered, "Is that so?"

The driver shuddered, and it was only then that he realized that he had said something terrible. In his panic, he said this to save the situation, “Ms. Youlin, I just ran out of words. Please don't think about it.”

Zhao Youlin smiled faintly and replied, “It's okay. You don't have to be nervous. What you said is good.”

That's when the driver feels comfortable. He kept driving and said nothing more.

Zhao Youlin watched as the scene flashed past the window while she pondered what the driver had said.

Some time passed, and Zhao Youlin finally turned her gaze from the scenery outside to grab the box in her pocket.

Mu Chen was right. He really appreciated this necklace. Even when he went on a mission, he took her and never left her. It was not that the necklace was beautiful, it was just that this necklace was the only item that her biological mother had left for her.

Zhao Youlin took out the necklace from the box and gently opened the heart-shaped pendant. In an instant, a somewhat old photo was revealed before Zhao Youlin's eyes.

The woman in the photo looked at the child in her arms gently. There was happiness in her eyes, and they were filled with great maternal love. Anyone who sees it will feel touched.

Zhao Youlin had been left in front of the orphanage as an infant. When the director found her, she only had money and the necklace inside this blanket wrapped around her.

The director believes that the woman in the photo is Zhao Youlin's biological mother, and it was because of this photo that the director had always believed that Zhao Youlin's mother had some indescribable problems that caused her to leave Zhao Youlin in front of the orphanage, which was why the director had Zhao Youlin wear the necklace ever since she was young.

Unfortunately, until the moment he died, Zhao Youlin had never seen his biological mother.

Zhao Youlin did not know why she suddenly thought of taking the necklace back. Perhaps he still hoped to meet his biological mother someday, even though he could only see her from a distance.

With that thought in mind, Zhao Youlin looked at the smiling woman in the photo deeply, and as if she was affected, she could not help but smile as well.

Zhao Youlin's mood had been lifted because she had accidentally met Mu Chen and picked up the token that she cared about. But the people in the Zhao family were not so lucky.

Li Hongyu already felt everything was bad when he saw how the old master treated Zhao Youlin in the grave. But there were many people there at that time, so he could not show what he felt on his face.

As soon as he returned home and sent Zhao Shuncheng away, he asked Zhao Youxi for information, but to his surprise, as he asked for information, he heard something big.

"What?! You said that the old master let the girl get into Zhao Enterprise, and she even had an equally important role as the general manager?!” The moment Li Hongyu finished hearing Zhao Youxi's words, she jumped out of bed.
