As Jian Ruoxi entered, A-Jie suddenly appeared and stopped her.

"Miss Jian, Mr. Lu wants to see you."

"I have nothing to say to him."

Jian Ruoxi raised her hand, but A-Jie had already grabbed the doorknob.

He lowered his head slightly and said respectfully, "Mr. Lu instructed that no matter what method is used, Miss Jian must be brought back."

This statement carries a strong threatening connotation.

Jian Ruoxi bit her lip, and after a long while, said resentfully, "Where is he?"

"Mr. Lu, please, Miss Jian."

Half an hour later, Jian Ruoxi walked into the Lu Group.

Ironically, after three years of marriage, this was the first time she had ever visited Lu Shen's workplace.

In the CEO's office on the 28th floor, a bodyguard knocked on the door.

"Come in."

A deep voice came from inside the room, and Jian Ruoxi's breath hitched slightly.

She quickly composed herself, then opened the door and went inside.

Only two wall lamps were on in the room.

The dim light illuminated a figure standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

Wisps of smoke drifted from the man's side, carrying a dreamlike, ethereal quality.

Looking at that tall, slender figure, Jian Ruoxi was momentarily lost in thought again.

But she quickly regained her senses.

"Mr. Lu, what exactly do you want to see me about?"

Lu Shen turned around, his deep gaze sweeping over Jian Ruoxi.

This outfit is alright.

He then said coldly, "I'm telling you to quit the entertainment industry immediately. Name your price."

Jian Ruoxi pursed her lips.

Why should she listen to him?

"impossible."

She uttered three words and turned to leave.

But then she felt a tightening around her waist, and Lu Shen had pulled her in front of him.

Before Jian Ruoxi could react, Lu Shen slammed her onto the table.
