Chapter 21: Mr. Lu

Su Mo stared at the opposite side with curiosity.

Sang Wan blinked and encouraged, "Why don't you go knock on the door and say you're a delivery man."

Su Mo agreed and nodded, "I think it's a good idea. I'll observe it for two more days and then find an opportunity to take action."

"By the way, Lu Tingzhou, are you planning to let go?" Su Mo asked after drinking a sip of juice.

Sang Wan had a bitter face and was helpless. "I can't be so undignified. After all, I'm such an outstanding person. It would be too cheap to do it for a man. I can't do it."

"I'm really reluctant to let her go." Su Mo stared at her and asked seriously, "Are you really interested in her?"

Sang Wan didn't hide it and admitted it generously, "I guess so. After all, she has money, a good face, and a good figure..."

Su Mo's eyes lit up instantly, "Body? How did you know he has abdominal muscles?"

"I think so."

Sang Wan recalled that night when his shirt was wet by her and the muscle lines on his body were very obvious.

It made her heart surge with heat, and her face flushed.

"Earlier, you swore that you couldn't possibly be tempted. I don't know what tempting is. Now something's wrong?"

Sang Wan's face flushed. She was slapped in front of her face. She was indeed her best friend.

"If something goes wrong, I can still give up. If it's hard to fish, I won't fish anymore. I can handle it on my own. Wang Sheng should be busy now, so I can take a break."

"I find this quite strange. Wang Sheng relies on the Lu family, so why did Lu Tingzhou suddenly cut off his source of income?"

"How would I know? I guess it's just a cleanup, and he's a pretty unkind person."

Sang Wan didn't dare to be so self-indulgent as to think that he was helping her.

"Could it be because of you?"

Su Mo narrowed his eyes and looked at Sang Wan with a gossipy smile.

Sang Wan gave her a look and said, "You're overthinking it. He said he doesn't like me."

"Then it wasn't God's will. God made him help you unintentionally."

The two smiled at each other.

——

Sunday afternoon.

Lu Tingzhou arrived at the old house as promised.

The old man and sister-in-law Sun Meixi were already waiting in the main hall.

"dad."

Lu Tingzhou called out and sat down on the sofa next to the old man.

"I called you so many times but you didn't come back. Do you still have this family in your heart?"

Lu Tingzhou was unwilling to come back. His relationship with his father was neither good nor bad.

The old man saw that the eldest and second sons' families were ostracizing him, but he did not do anything.

Although he could understand that his father wanted to train him, it was indeed difficult at that time and he felt bitter.

"What's the matter?"

"Tingzhou, the thing is, our Lu Corporation has always had business dealings with my cousin's company. How come you cut them off all of a sudden?"

Sun Meixi used her father-in-law's power to call Lu Tingzhou back for this matter.

Wang Sheng was already extremely anxious.

"Most of Wang Sheng's business has nothing to do with our Lu Corporation. They invest a lot but get little return. Isn't it normal for me to stop doing that?"

Sun Meixi looked at her father-in-law with pleading eyes.

The old man felt guilty towards his eldest daughter-in-law and said in a deep voice, "After all, they are relatives. We still have to help them when we should."

"He's just a cousin. As for helping me like this, when I was assigned to the Beijing branch, my family didn't even offer any help to me."

The old man choked.

Sun Meixi's face froze. Not only did she not help, she also made things difficult for him.

"The matter of Wang Sheng ends here. The Lu family will no longer cooperate with him. If the eldest sister-in-law wants to help her relatives, why not give some of her share."

Lu Jinxuan smelled a strong smell of gunpowder and knew that his uncle was determined.

"Mom, we've done our best with my cousin's uncle, and my uncle is doing it for the company. I don't think there's anything wrong with that."

Sun Meixi glared at her son and wondered why she gave birth to such a silly boy with such a wicked mind.

At this time, the second son Lu Tingfeng and his wife Tang Qinlan came over.

"Sister-in-law, I think Third Brother is doing the right thing. You can't use public money to help relatives."

Tang Qinlan smiled with a look of disdain.

"Tingzhou, I've already told Dad about everything that's been going on at the company lately. Your aggressive actions have caused panic among the people. Shouldn't you tone it down a bit?"

Lu Tingfeng looked at his younger brother. Since he came back to take over the company, the projects he was handling had become increasingly tighter. The resentment in his heart was no less than that of Sun Meixi.

"Second brother, I must have touched your cake." Lu Tingzhou gave him a cold look.

"What you said is for the good of the company."

"Okay, stop pretending. Dad's not stupid."

After he said this, he stood up and left.

Lu Tingfeng was furious, "Dad, what do you think of the third brother's attitude?"

"Your attitude isn't great, but your words are true. From now on, please control your own little thoughts. They say conquering an empire is easy, but defending it is hard. You didn't contribute when we conquered it, so don't hold me back when we defend it."

"You are biased towards the third brother."

After saying this, Lu Tingfeng left angrily.

Lu Jinxuan followed Lu Tingzhou out with a pretty face.

"Uncle, why did you acquire my small company?"

Lu Jinxuan was just doing it for fun, but he didn't expect that his uncle would take a fancy to him.

"The company doesn't have any entertainment business, and we just want to develop this area."

Lu Tingzhou saw that his face was not good, and thought of the scene that night when Sang Wan was talking and laughing with him.

"Then if I go to work in the company, will I still be managing my film and television company?"

Lu Tingzhou did not refuse. He never took personal revenge.

"yes."

Lu Jinxuan smiled, "That's good."

Lu Tingzhou didn't say anything else to him and got into the car and left.

——

At 9:30 am on Monday, Sang Wan received a call from Bai Wei, saying that Lan Qin agreed and asked her and Xu Shiming to go to Lan Qin Company in the afternoon.

After waiting for three days, I didn't expect Lan Qin would really agree.

"Anyway, you've achieved your goal and things are going so smoothly." Bai Wei said excitedly.

Bai Wei, the agent, hardly said a word from beginning to end. She watched helplessly as Sang Wan secured a top endorsement on her own. There was nothing she could do except be excited.

This level of success reminded her of when Sang Wan won the leading female role in "The Storm".

Everything was so logical and logical, and happened naturally.

But, it went so smoothly...it felt unreal to her.

If pie keeps falling from the sky and you can catch it steadily, what does this mean?

Can't stop the luck?

Sang Wan didn’t think as much as Bai Wei, she went directly to Sang’s.

It would be better to talk to Xu Shiming about this matter in person.

She didn't want to go back to the Sang residence, and the company was the best choice.

Sang Wan arrived at the company at exactly ten o'clock.

As soon as he stepped through the door, he saw Xu Shiming leading Lin Hao out in a humble manner.

Lin Hao was also stunned when he saw her. He didn't expect to meet Sang Wan. The boss had told him not to let Sang Wan know.

Sang Wan was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Why is Special Assistant Lin here?"

Xu Shiming smiled apologetically and said, "Young Master Lu invested in Sang Corporation, and Special Assistant Lin came here to sign the contract."

Sang Wan was puzzled. Lin Hao was Lu Tingzhou's assistant, so why was he running errands for Lu Jinxuan?

Lu Jinxuan wanted to invest in Sang Corporation, why didn’t he tell him at all?

A thin layer of sweat seeped out of Lin Hao's forehead. The boss had given him so many warnings, how could it be such a coincidence!

He remained calm, "Miss Sang, Mr. Lu heard that the Sang Company has been having some financial difficulties recently, so he asked me to come and take a look."

This statement was flawless, explaining the purpose of the visit and making it clear that it was Lu Jinxuan's intention.

Xu Shiming nodded repeatedly beside him, smiling so much that the wrinkles on his face could kill a mosquito, "Jinxuan is a thoughtful kid."

Sang Wan's glass-like eyes moved between the two of them, finally landing on Lin Hao. She said in a sweet voice, "Thank you for your hard work, Special Assistant Lin."

"It should be."

Lin Hao nodded and left. After getting in the car, he wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Sang Wan walked towards the elevator in high heels and called Lu Jinxuan.

The phone rang a few times before it was picked up. Lu Jinxuan's slightly youthful voice came through: "Sister Wan, what's up?"

"Jinxuan, I just met Special Assistant Lin at the company. He said you asked him to come and sign the investment contract for Sang Corporation. I thought I should thank you anyway." Sang Wan went straight to the point.

Lu Jinxuan on the other end of the line paused noticeably, his voice hesitant. "Ah... yes, yes. I just... heard from Xu Mingyue that the Sang Company is having a bit of a hard time lately, so I thought I could help you out in any way I could."

He scratched his hair, thinking that Lin Hao represented his uncle. Since Lin Hao went there in person, it must have been his uncle's attention.

Since Lin Hao said he was representing him, it must be that his uncle didn't want others to know.

Lu Jinxuan smiled with his lips curved. Fortunately, he reacted quickly, otherwise his uncle would have been exposed.

My introverted uncle, you have to ask for a reward for this achievement.

When Sang Wan heard him say that he heard it from Xu Mingyue, the inexplicable expectation in her heart instantly dissipated.

That’s right, how could someone like Lu Tingzhou help the Sang family for no reason?

She hummed softly, her tone unable to discern joy or anger: "Is that so? Then I owe you a favor."

"You are so kind, sister. It's just a small favor."

Lu Jinxuan smiled innocently, feeling moved for the first time. He was inexplicably treated as someone's younger brother.

The key point is that I am so disappointing and keep calling her "Wanjie".

After hanging up the phone, Sang Wan leaned against the cold metal wall of the elevator and breathed a sigh of relief.

It can't be said that she felt lost, maybe she just felt that Lu Tingzhou was too far away from her, so far away that even the slightest intersection seemed a luxury.

That's good, this way she can walk her own path more clearly.

She went straight to Xu Shiming's office.

Xu Shiming had just signed the contract and sent Lin Hao away triumphantly. When he saw Sang Wan, the smile on his face faded a little, but it was no longer as ferocious as when he was at Sang's house.

"What are you doing here? The company is not the place for you." He spoke in a bad tone and always disliked Sang Wan setting foot in the company.

Sang Wan ignored his attitude and walked straight to the sofa and sat down, her voice calm.

"Let me tell you, I've negotiated the cooperation with Lanqin for you."

Xu Shiming was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened, almost unable to believe his ears: "You said Lan Qin agreed to cooperate with Sang?"

You know, the cooperation with Wang Sheng can no longer be relied upon. Not to mention that he cannot keep up with the follow-up funds, even if he did, what he would get would only be small Karami, and the bulk of the money would be taken by Wang Sheng.

If Wang Sheng hadn't caught him, how could he have become such a sucker, investing a lot of money but getting very little profit.

He was worrying about the subsequent funding chain when Lu came to invest.
