Yan Kai walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down. Sure enough, he saw a slender figure standing downstairs in the apartment building.

He sighed. He knew it; Miss Qiu was just as stubborn as President Lu and would definitely come after him!

"Yan Kai, what are you doing?" Lu Yanting seemed to notice that something was wrong with Yan Kai and quickly asked.

"No...it's nothing! Mr. Lu, is there anything else you need? I can go and buy it for you now. If not, I'll go back to the company and help Miss with her business."

Yan Kai just wanted to escape as soon as possible. Qiu Mang knew Lu Yanting's address, and Yan Kai was really afraid that Qiu Mang would bypass him and come to his door directly. If the two stubborn mules met, who knew what would happen!

Lu Yanting squinted at him, his eyes full of scrutiny. Yan Kai knew perfectly well that Lu Yanting couldn't see his expression at all, but he still couldn't help but shiver.

"Mr. Lu... Mr. Lu."

Lu Yanting took a deep breath and waved his hand, "Fine, you go ahead. I can only ask you to buy it for me. Buy me a few pairs of underwear and some other daily necessities."

Yan Kai nodded. "Okay, Mr. Lu, I'll be back as soon as possible!" After saying that, Yan Kai pulled the doorknob and was about to walk out.

"Wait!" the man's deep voice rang out again.

"Mr. Lu, is there anything else we need to buy?" Yan Kai asked.

"I want to eat strawberries, can you buy me a box?"

Yan Kai responded and quickly opened the door and left.

When Yan Kai took the elevator downstairs, he looked back to make sure that President Lu hadn't followed him before he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yan Kai! What exactly is going on with Lu Yanting?" Qiu Mang asked as soon as Yan Kai got out of the elevator.

"Miss Qiu..."

Just as Yan Kai was about to speak, his phone rang suddenly. He saw that it was Lu Nian calling and quickly went to the side to answer it.

About a minute later, Yan Kai hung up the phone and came over, looking even more nervous.

"Ms. Qiu! I'm so sorry! Something came up at the company and I have to go there. Let's talk another time!"

Qiu Mang wanted to say something more, "Are you in a hurry?"

Yan Kai nodded emphatically, his face grave. "Yes! It's very urgent! But Miss Qiu, please promise me that you won't bother President Lu alone for now. I'll explain everything to you once I'm done with this!"

Qiu Mang glanced at the time. "Okay, then you can go ahead and get busy!"

Yan Kai got into the car, his expression tense. He floored the accelerator and soon arrived at Lu's Group.

As soon as Yan Kai entered the president's office, he saw papers scattered all over the floor, and Lu Haifeng was lying half-reclined on the president's desk with a roguish look on his face.

Lu Nianzheng stood to the side, her chest heaving violently. She pointed at Lu Haifeng and roared, "Lu Haifeng! Who do you think you are! How dare you come here and spout nonsense! Get out of here right now!"

When Lu Haifeng saw Yan Kai walk in, he smiled and said, "Lu Nian, whether I'm talking nonsense or not, why don't you just ask your brother's assistant?"

Yan Kai walked steadily to Lu Nian's side. "Miss, what happened?"

Lu Nian pointed at Lu Haifeng, her fingers trembling with anger, "Yan Kai, this guy will do anything to seize power! He actually cursed Yan Ting!"

As Lu Nian spoke, she pointed to the papers scattered on the ground, "Yan Kai, he... he actually had a bunch of forged medical records, saying that Yan Ting was poisoned and wouldn't live more than six months! That's outrageous! Yan Ting is perfectly fine right now, how can someone curse someone like that? It's absolutely despicable!"

Seeing this, Lu Haifeng looked at Yan Kai, who was standing in the middle, with a provocative expression, "Yan Kai, you should say something fair, is what I said true or not?"

Yan Kai still didn't understand what Lu Haifeng wanted to do, but the fact that President Lu was poisoned definitely had to be kept secret.

Thinking this, Yan Kai stepped forward, shielding Lu Nian behind him. "Mr. Lu, what brings you here today?"

Lu Haifeng lay half-reclined on the desk, propping his head up with one hand, and looked at him with half-closed eyes. "Yan Kai, you're trying to change the subject! I just asked whether it's true that Lu Yanting was poisoned. Why are you bringing up other things?"

Yan Kai looked back at him, his eyes full of wariness. "Mr. Lu, this is President Lu's office. If you have nothing else to say, please leave!"

Lu Haifeng sat up straight, suddenly braced his hands on the table, and then leaped to the ground. "Yan Kai, don't play dumb. Is it that hard to answer my question?"

His gaze suddenly fell on Lu Nian, and a regretful expression appeared on his face. "Tsk tsk tsk... Yan Kai, are you kidding me? Of the three people here, only you have the surname Yan. Lu Nian and I both have the surname Lu. We are all members of the Lu family. Is it appropriate for you to keep such an important secret to yourself?"

Or did you poison Lu Yanting? You don't want us to know? Are you planning to wait until he dies from the poison before telling everyone your big boss is dead, and then seize power for yourself?

"I didn't! Don't make false accusations!!" Yan Kai was immediately accused of such a serious crime and instinctively tried to refute it.

Lu Nian pointed at him angrily, "Pah! Lu Haifeng! I've put up with you for too long! Don't go too far! Yan Ting is alive and well, stop talking about whether he's dead or not! The one who really deserves to die is you!"

Lu Haifeng looked helpless. He suddenly raised his right hand and said, "Sister Lu Nian, I have no reason to lie to you. We are all family. I swear, if I am lying, may I be hit by a car and die the moment I step outside!"

"Sister Lu Nian, I'm trying to help you! This Yan Kai has been hiding Lu Yanting. Think about it, you haven't seen your brother for days! Aren't you worried that if what I'm saying is true, you won't even get to see him one last time? And I swear, what I'm saying is true! Otherwise, ask him yourself!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Nian recalled that Lu Yanting seemed to be acting strangely lately; his complexion was indeed much worse than before, and he wasn't going home. Could it be that he really...

"Yan Kai, tell me... is what he said true?" Lu Nian looked at Yan Kai, hoping to hear a negative answer from him.

Yan Kai sighed and avoided Lu Nian's gaze.

The answer was obvious, and Lu Nian felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, her usually cold eyes instantly filled with tears.

Lu Haifeng smiled. "See? I was telling the truth, wasn't I? Now that we've brought this up, let me talk about the second thing."

He cleared his throat. "Grandpa made a will when he was alive, stipulating that the heir to the Lu Group can only be his grandson. Sister Lu Nian, you see, Lu Yanting is about to pass away! As the old man's only grandson, it's time for me to take over! Please hand over the company seal and all those important documents so we can make a proper handover!"
