Chapter 2488  : Liu Lina was injured.

Gu Yao had been frowning the entire time. She rarely did housework, especially things like peeling melon seeds. She was very careful at home, so it was never so troublesome.

However, Liu Lina had left the melon seed shells under the sofa, and it was very difficult to clean them up. She even had to lie down to clean them, but the melon seed shells refused to come out from under the sofa, as if they were going against her.

In the end, Gu mo gave up struggling and stood up. At this time, her hair had become very messy and she was not even in the mood to watch her drama anymore. In the end, she chose to go upstairs.

Seeing that Gu Mo’s room door was closed, Liu Lina smiled in satisfaction and walked back into the room.

The most important thing for her now was to find the key to the study before Ji Ziming returned.

Liu Lina searched through all the cabinets but could not find the key. She even looked through the things that Ji Ziming had locked up. The only possibility was that the key was not in the room.

She had already turned the room upside down, but she could not find what she was looking for. Then, she threw the lamp to the ground, making a loud noise, but no one came to care about her.

Liu Lina glared at the door. She had to find the things that the man had hidden in the study room, and what she wanted more was to find his company’s confidential information. That way, she would be able to get her hands on it faster.

She found two hair clips in the dressing table. Looking at the two things that she didn’t know when they had been left behind, she smiled. This time, there might be a way.

Liu Lina walked out of the room and looked around. When she realized that Gu mo had not come out again, she called out twice to confirm.

In the empty corridor, only Liu Lina’s figure could be seen. She walked to the door of the study room in a normal manner, blocked the lock with one hand, and inserted the hair clip in with the other.

Liu Lina had already come into contact with these simple locks before. She could quickly open any simple lock. However, she had been fiddling with this lock for a full ten minutes, and there was still no sign of it being opened.

She was starting to lose her patience, and she couldn’t see anything strange about the lock.

“Creak …”

Liu Lina tensed up when she heard the voice. Someone had returned. She was about to turn around to confirm if it was Ji Ziming when she heard a male voice.

“What are you doing at the door of my study?”

He frowned in dissatisfaction. He knew that this woman would not be content with her place, but he did not expect her to act so quickly.

“Hubby, you’re back. I was bored just now, so I wanted to use your computer to do some research.”

Liu Lina’s expression did not change as she silently threw the hair clip on the ground and stepped on it. As long as the man had no evidence, he would not say anything.

“There are many things in my computer that belong to the company. If you want them, you can buy something new tomorrow.”

Ji Ziming would definitely not let her touch his laptop. Regardless of whether the items inside were useful or not, he did not want them to fall into her hands.

“Alright then, I’m fine with two books. I’m really bored when you’re not at home.”

Liu Lina said this pitifully. To others, this scene would look like a woman acting coquettishly with a man. It was a very loving scene, but when it was between Ji Ziming and Liu Lina, it felt strange no matter how one looked at it.

“What book do you want to read? tell me and I’ll bring it to you later.”

“Any two books will do.”

Seeing that there was no chance, Liu Lina could only give up. She could not let Ji Ziming be too vigilant now, or it would be difficult for her to carry out her plan.

After Liu Lina returned to her room, Ji Ziming used his thumbprint to open the study’s door. He had asked Gu Heng to get someone to buy this lock, and it was still very rare in the world.

This lock had three functions. You could enter a password, you could use a fingerprint, and of course, you could also use a key. These three functions could be activated at the same time, and they could also be opened and closed.

Ji Ziming had already locked the door with the key, so the fingerprints were not obvious. Even the password was hidden, so it would be difficult for people not in the know to find it.

However, he still had to be on guard against Liu Lina. After all, Liu Lina’s background was very strong. He did not want to see any accidents.

“Here’s your book,”

Ji Ziming randomly picked two books for Liu Lina, knowing that she would not read them even if he brought them back. He then sneered when he saw the mess in the house.

Was she, Liu Lina, or was he, Ji Ziming, stupider, for her to think that he would leave something as important as a key in a bedroom that was not safe at all?

“I accidentally touched the lamp when I got up just now. I haven’t had time to clean it.”

Liu Lina’s lie could be blurted out without much thought. She was certain that Ji Ziming would not do anything to her, so she just came up with an excuse.

“Oh, really?”

With a smile on his face, he moved closer to Liu Lina and blocked her at the foot of the bed, causing her to continuously retreat.

The man pinched Liu Lina’s chin. Under the light, it looked extremely amorous. Liu Lina was dazed for a moment. At that moment, she thought that she was in the man’s eyes.

“Y-yes, I am.”

Liu Lina stammered. Her body was currently leaning backward, and she could no longer control her center of gravity. However, when the man suddenly took a step back, she immediately fell over.

That’s right. Ji Ziming did it on purpose. Even his last attempt to grab Liu Lina was an act. He could not wait for her to die, but now that she was only injured, how could he save her?

“Ah …”

Just as he had expected, Liu Lina did not struggle to get up. Soon, her screams were heard as blood splattered on her pajamas.

“Leena, are you alright?”

Ji Ziming ‘anxiously’ helped Liu Lina up and ‘accidentally’ poked her waist, causing her to cry out in shock.

“Hubby, it hurts.”

Liu Lina’s tears were already rolling down her face. The broken shards of glass had already pierced her body, and she felt her back go numb. She no longer had the time to think about whether the man had done it on purpose.

“Bear with it, I’ll take you to the hospital.”

Ji Ziming picked Liu Lina up by her waist and anxiously ran outside.
