As soon as Sheng Wantang and Lu Jiyuan left the airport, they saw several people in suits and leather shoes from a distance. Most of them were in their thirties or forties. They were senior executives of the GT Group and Lu Jiyuan's confidants.
When several people saw Lu Jiyuan, it was as if they had seen a savior. They looked eagerly as if they had been waiting for a long time.
"Why are you all here?" Lu Jiyuan asked.
"I heard from Assistant Yi that you are back and I came here to pick you up." One of the executives said, "Mr. Lu, look, we are all here. How about a peace conference?"
The meeting is what they came for.
It's not that they want to work overtime, it's mainly because they saw Mr. Lu in a good mood this morning. Everyone has always agreed to take advantage of Mr. Lu's good mood to quickly solve the company's problems, so that they can get away with less criticism!
"You go to the company, I can go home by myself." Sheng Wantang said upon seeing this.
Lu Jiyuan held her hand and refused to let her go: "You come with me."
The two finally reconciled, and Lu Jiyuan didn't want to be separated from Sheng Wantang.
"You're going to work, it's not appropriate for me to go." Sheng Wantang didn't want to go at all.
The director of the brand department had sharp eyes and caught a glimpse of the ring on the ring finger of Sheng Wantang's right hand. He quickly said: "Madam President, what did you say? It's natural for you to go!"
After saying that, he immediately looked at Lu Jiyuan.
The latter remained calm, waiting for Sheng Wantang's opinion, as if he would continue to skip work if Sheng Wantang didn't go.
"Madam, shall I arrange for the secretary's office to prepare snacks and snacks for you?" Lian Yi Jiu urged.
Sheng Wantang thought that the boss Lu Jiyuan had not been doing his job properly for a long time, so he nodded.
Several executives looked at each other crazily as they got into the car——
Mr. Lu did not refute the words ‘Mrs. President’!
It turned out that they had met the president’s wife so early!
Lu Jiyuan and the senior executives entered the conference room, while Sheng Wantang went to the president's office to rest.
There are already a bunch of snacks and a cup of milk tea on the coffee table in the living room.
"Madam President, please call me if you need anything," the secretary said respectfully.
"I see there seems to be a new person in your secretarial office."
When she entered the door, Sheng Wantang noticed that the seat that originally belonged to Zhuang Shu was replaced by an unknown woman.
"Yes, Secretary-General Zhuang and a secretary in charge of the media department were both fired."
"……Why?"
Sheng Wantang couldn't quite associate the word 'fired' with Zhuang Shu, who had outstanding business ability.
Zhuang Shu has been with Lu Jiyuan for many years and is trusted by Lu Jiyuan, otherwise Wenren Yangyang's troubles would not have been left to her to solve.
"Because -" the secretary looked at the diamond ring on the ring finger of Sheng Wantang's right hand, "because last time the rumors between Mr. Lu and Miss Wenren were not dealt with immediately and they were not reported to Mr. Lu. This was a serious mistake in their work."
Sheng Wantang was stunned, and her heart was quietly knocked.
When Lu Jiyuan came back from the meeting, Sheng Wantang was on the phone.
"...Grandma, it's not convenient for me to go home recently...I'm not angry with you, you don't have to apologize to me...I'm sorry, I really can't leave here."
Sheng Wantang hung up the phone and was in a daze, not even knowing Lu Jiyuan had come in.
"What's wrong?" Lu Jiyuan touched Sheng Wantang's head.
Only then did Sheng Wantang notice him, "Grandma wants me to go home."
But several unpleasant experiences in the past made her resist.
She is not angry.
It's heartbreaking.
Lu Jiyuan sat down on the sofa, and the next second he grabbed Sheng Wantang's waist, pulled her up, had her sit on his lap, and put his arms around her waist.
This is a very intimate gesture.
"ah!"
Sheng Wantang was startled, but did not struggle and allowed him to hold her.
"Have you been bullied?" Lu Jiyuan asked.
Sheng Wantang pursed her lips and said nothing.
Lu Jiyuan knew without even guessing that it was probably Sheng Yun who became a demon.
He pinched the back of Sheng Wantang's neck soothingly and said, "If you don't want to see her, just see her. There is no need to feel guilty or ashamed."
"But grandma wasn't like this before." Sheng Wantang looked down at her fingertips and muttered, "She used to be very good to me."
"Sheng Wantang, there are many parts of the heart, and the human heart is multi-faceted."
Seeing that Sheng Wantang remained silent, Lu Jiyuan sighed.
"How do you think Bu Jinghan treats me now?" he said suddenly.
"Very good." This is Sheng Wantang's true feeling.
Every time they met, Bu Jinghan was full of joy and enthusiasm for Lu Jiyuan. The warmth and motherly love in his eyes could not be blocked or deceived.
Lu Jiyuan laughed very softly.
Sheng Wantang heard a chill from this laugh.
She looked at him in surprise.
The two of them were close to each other. The moment she turned her head, the tip of her nose brushed against the man's.
Lu Jiyuan stared at the person close to him for half a second, tilted his head and kissed her lips.
A dragonfly touches the water.
I don't know if it's to comfort me, or... to seek comfort.
"I've been sick often since I can remember."
"Were you in poor health when you were a child?" Sheng Wantang didn't notice it at all.
This kind of man who works hard all night and is still energetic at work does not look like he is in poor health!
"No. Grandpa hasn't passed away at that time. Once I get sick, Lu Jie will have to come see me, and Bu Jinghan will be happy about it."
Seeing Sheng Wantang's expression of disbelief, Lu Jiyuan knew that she had guessed it.
"Yes, Bu Jinghan put medicine in my food, only gave me a thin coat in winter, and made me bang my head... She deliberately made me sick in order to get Lu Jie's attention."
Sheng Wantang sat up straight.
"How...she looks..."
"She doesn't look like such a villain?" Lu Jiyuan answered, "She's not that bad either. After meeting Lu Jie as she wished, she would cry and apologize to me."
But is that kind of apology useful?
Sheng Wantang knew it was useless.
Just like she doesn't want to see Sheng Yun again now.
"Is it hard?" Sheng Wantang didn't know what to say.
Lu Jiyuan chuckled and said indifferently: "It's okay."
"I don't know this...I'm sorry..."
Sorry, I always thought you were cold-blooded towards Bu Jinghan.
Sheng Wantang felt distressed and hugged Lu Jiyuan, using her arms hard, as if this could give him strength.
Lu Jiyuan originally wanted to tell Sheng Wantang more——
After his grandfather passed away, he couldn't even get Lu Jie to show up despite his illness. Compared with the days after that - he was scolded by his biological mother for being useless, beaten by Bu Jinghan who lost control of his emotions, and locked in the dark by Bu Jinghan who lost his temper.
Being in a narrow cabinet, not allowed to eat, not allowed to go to school, not allowed to talk to anyone... Compared with these, the physical pain of being sick is not bad.
However, seeing Sheng Wantang like this, he couldn't bear it.
He couldn't bear to let her feel too sorry for him.
I don't want her to feel uncomfortable.
Stop talking.
"Little girl, I'm not telling you this to comfort me."
Lu Jiyuan held Sheng Wantang's face and met her eyes.
"You can't ignore someone's bad intentions just because they have been nice to you. People should be selfish. Having too strong a sense of morality is not good for you."
Lu Jiyuan did not mention Lu Yunxian.
However, for a child to grow up healthily and possess extraordinary knowledge despite being treated in a distorted manner by his mother all year round, the elder brother Lu Yunxian's protection and dealings with him are indispensable.
"Okay, I understand." Sheng Wantang nodded obediently and hugged Lu Jiyuan again.
"So good."
Lu Jiyuan tilted his head and kissed Sheng Wantang's neck.
The Fourth Master Lu who was willing to tear open his own scars just to enlighten her seemed to have never existed. He kept kissing her neck.
