She was the Xu family’s designated eldest grandson’s daughter-in-law, but after a bitter broken engagement, the mysterious Lu family’s crown prince appeared. “The Xu family doesn’t want you? Then f...
Right now, the most pressing issue is with the Lu Group. As long as they don't file a lawsuit, this matter can be settled privately, and it will only be a matter of paying compensation.
She believed that her grandfather would rather spend the money than ruin his reputation.
Money can be earned again. Grandpa is old, and he is such an upright person. We can't let his life be tainted.
Xu Rubao gently stroked her chin. Did Lu Jingheng have any weaknesses? Perhaps he had something he particularly wanted, so that she might still have a chance to negotiate with him.
Money? Someone like him probably doesn't lack it.
Rumor has it that he is in poor health, but she is still just a student, and although she is studying medicine, she probably can't be of much help.
Xu Rubao tugged at her hair, unable to come up with a good idea for the moment.
In the evening, after dinner, Xu Chenghai and Xu Ziyang set off to find medicinal herbs.
Xu Rubao helped Chen Lizhen tidy up. After finishing cleaning the dishes, Xu Rubao wanted to go see her grandfather.
Grandpa barely ate any dinner, and he had blisters on the corners of his mouth, which were obviously caused by stress.
She brewed a cup of cooling tea and prepared to serve it to her grandfather.
As she reached the door, she heard her grandfather on the phone, seemingly having a difficult time, so she stopped at the door and didn't go in.
She knew her grandfather was anxious. Hearing him make phone calls to ask for help everywhere, only to be turned down at every turn, Xu Rubao felt very bad.
Even Grandpa couldn't do anything about it, so it's understandable that those people probably wouldn't dare offend the Lu family.
Xu Rubao felt she had to do something; she couldn't just stand by and watch her grandfather worry.
She didn't go in, but silently returned to her room.
Someone like Lu Jingheng is probably not someone you can just meet whenever you want.
However, he will definitely go to the company, so if she stays at the company and tries to sneak in, as long as she can meet with him and see what he needs, maybe this matter will take a turn for the better.
The next morning, Xu Rubao finished breakfast and went out early.
Xu Jinnan thought that it was normal for her to leave early because she was studying hard, and he didn't want her to be affected by things at home.
Xu Rubao arrived at the Lu Group early in the morning and stood at the entrance of the Lu Group, looking at the towering building that seemed to reach into the clouds.
The large characters "Lu's Group" shimmered with golden light under the sunlight, exuding an imposing aura, truly befitting the largest and most prestigious family in Hai City.
Xu Rubao tidied her bangs, trying to cover the birthmark on her face with her hair.
She took a deep breath and stepped inside, feeling as if she had entered a five-star hotel. The lobby was predominantly gold, with beautiful crystal chandeliers, Italian leather sofas, and several seemingly simple yet highly designed paintings adorning the walls.
The receptionist watched her walk in and said, "Hello, miss, how can I help you?"
"Hello, I urgently need to see your CEO, Mr. Lu. Could you please make arrangements for me?"
"Miss, do you have an appointment?"
Xu Rubao shook her head slightly. The receptionist saw the birthmark on her face and thought to herself, "These days, everyone thinks they're qualified to see our president, and what do they think of him?"
Moreover, she doesn't even look at herself. If you're ugly, don't go out and scare people.
However, the receptionist was still quite polite and said, "I'm sorry, without an appointment you can't see our president. Miss, please leave, otherwise I will call security later."
Xu Rubao didn't say anything more; it seemed that he wouldn't be able to see Lu Jingheng through normal means.
She wasn't one to give up easily, and no matter what, she was determined to see Lu Jingheng today.
