Lu Jingheng stood up, looking at her dazed expression, and asked with some concern, "Did you hear what I said?"

Xu Rubao regained her senses and nodded, "I...I heard it..."

The third clause of the agreement stipulates that one cannot question the other party's words and must obey unconditionally.

Xu Rubao didn't know how she left the Lu Group. It seemed that when she left, the secretaries were still very polite in seeing her off to the elevator.

As she walked out of the Lu Group building, she looked back and still felt like she was dreaming.

She pinched her arm; it hurt. Then she looked at herself and realized she was still wearing her cleaner's uniform. This wasn't a fake.

Xu Rubao took a deep breath, took off the cleaning uniform he had taken, and secretly returned it.

This trip to the Lu Group went more smoothly than she had imagined, yet it was also more unexpected than she had anticipated.

Thinking of Lu Jingheng's appearance, she couldn't help but twitch her lips. Could he have some other ideas?

For a moment, Xu Rubao couldn't think of anything.

When she returned to the Xu family home, she saw her grandfather holding the phone, his face beaming with excitement.

Xu Jinnan finished his phone call and just then saw Ru Bao return.

He walked over and said, "Abao, you don't need to worry about Grandpa. The Lu Group has agreed to drop the lawsuit and won't ask us to pay any breach of contract fees. They will continue to cooperate with us in the future. That's great."

Xu Rubao nodded. "Grandpa, that's great."

As expected, Lu Jingheng kept his word, which put Xu Rubao at ease, and the biggest problem for the Xu family was solved.

However, since she signed that indenture, she might be able to go home less often. She needs to find an excuse to tell her grandfather first, so that he won't worry.

“Old man, let’s celebrate tonight. I told you the Xu family would be alright. Siqi is definitely our family’s lucky star.”

"What's there to celebrate? It's just that the lawsuit has been dropped. I didn't expect that the Lu family wouldn't ask us to pay the breach of contract penalty. Now, the most important thing is to replenish the medicinal materials. No, I'm really not at ease with that. I'll go myself this time."

Xu Jinnan has been running a medicinal herb business for many years, and now he needs to find another batch of medicinal herbs. The key is that many of them are rare and precious varieties, and it is not easy to find them all.

He was also a little puzzled, as the Lu family's attitude had been very forceful, leaving no room for negotiation whatsoever.

Just one night later, their attitude suddenly changed, and they even agreed to continue cooperating with them.

Xu Rubao noticed that her grandfather's expression was still somewhat tense. "Grandpa, is there anything you're worried about?"

"Yes, you don't need to worry too much. I think you're too old for that, so it's better if you don't go. Chenghai and Ziyang will definitely handle things well this time."

Xia Lanying still cared about the old man. Apart from the matter of that little jinx who kept opposing her, he treated her quite well otherwise.

Now that he's not pressuring Ziyang to marry Xu Rubao, she feels much better.

"I just don't understand why the Lu Group would give in so quickly, even overnight. Could it be that someone helped us?"

Xu Jinnan thought it over and over, but he had tried all the available connections before, and none of them had worked in the slightest.

"Grandpa, maybe the Lu family saw that we have been operating with integrity for many years and think that we can still cooperate."

"That's right, you don't need to worry too much. Have a good lunch and don't worry about the medicinal herbs."

It was a rare occasion for Xia Lanying to talk to Ru Bao. The old man looked noticeably thinner, which was entirely due to stress.
