Zhou Mobei simply smiled, his expression arrogant and unrestrained.

It was as if he had simply stood on the stage and spoken, yet he had truly gained unparalleled glory.

Lu Zheng remained silent, coldly observing the two of them.

His close colleagues all turned pale.

Since this is a research and development meeting, there are still many guests present. In order to better promote the group's cooperation and successfully sell the project, the Jiang family has prepared a cocktail party for the follow-up.

Jiang Li'er stood next to Lu Zheng, chatting and laughing with Zhou Mobei with an air of nonchalance.

Standing in the center of the hall, Lu Zheng felt a chill run through his body.

The assistant came over to say that it was President Shang Ye's invitation, but Jiang Li'er ignored him and took Zhou Mobei's hand as she picked up her wine glass and walked over.

They walked and laughed, whispering sweet nothings to each other, and Zhou Mobei tightened his grip on Jiang Li'er's waist.

The man's large hand outlined Jiang Li'er's slender waist, making them appear exceptionally intimate.

Lu Zheng's gaze followed him like a knife.

Is this the reason why Jiang Li'er invited him to the event today?

Zhou Mobei whispered, "Li'er, you look beautiful today."

Jiang Li'er's cheeks flushed slightly, her eyes sparkling.

Lu Zheng stood there, his phone beeping frequently. He picked it up and saw that the press conference he had just attended had made headlines in the tech news.

AI robots have always been a topic of interest to the outside world, and Lu Zheng is one of the best in this field, which is why he was chosen by Jiang Li'er.

It also gained the favor of the Jiang family.

Lu Zheng swiped the phone screen again, and the next item was the entertainment bulletin board.

The entire page was filled with intimate photos of Zhou Mobei and Jiang Lier, with the headline "Jiang Family Heiress and New Rich Zhou Mobei's Relationship Exposed".

Lu Zheng watched the two walk away quietly, then calmly picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

The liquor slid down his throat, bitter with a hint of spiciness, as if mocking his indifference.

Lu Zheng put down his wine glass, took a deep breath, and turned to walk towards the R&D team.

Seeing the disappointed looks on his colleagues' faces, Lu Zheng said in a deep voice, "I will give you an explanation for what happened today."

Li Nan, who usually assisted Lu Zheng with calculations, couldn't stand it anymore. "Brother Zheng, I know you're upset because of Sister Yue, but we can't let President Jiang disregard our entire team, can we?"

Working is like being a beast of burden, but when beasts of burden get angry, they are not to be trifled with.

Lu Zheng nodded, patted Li Nan's shoulder as he pursed his lips, and said firmly, "Don't worry, I will talk to President Jiang. This project is the culmination of our hard work, and we can't let personal matters affect it."

Having already made a clear plan in mind, Lu Zheng had already expressed his opinion.

The other colleagues had no choice but to give up.

Before leaving, Lu Zheng sent a red envelope in the project group, expressing his apologies for not being able to let his colleagues share their glorious moment on stage today.

Fortunately, everyone knew his character, so they only complained a few times and didn't take it too seriously.

After dealing with these trivial matters, Lu Zheng carefully picked up his sister's urn, then took a silk handkerchief to wipe the urn, and whispered, "Yue'er, I will definitely keep my promise to you."

After finishing everything, Lu Zheng placed the urn on the table, his eyes already red.

He took a deep breath, composed himself, and continued packing his things for his trip to Nanping.

However, at this very moment...

The notification sound of a text message on his phone made Lu Zheng stop what he was doing. He picked it up and immediately saw the obscene content on the screen.

Several intimate photos of Jiang Lier and Zhou Mobei in a hotel room.

The scale was so large it was astonishing, and Lu Zheng's fingers trembled slightly.

His gaze swept to the sender's location, where the name Zhou Mobei was clearly written.

Lu Zheng sneered. Such a clumsy tactic was nothing more than Zhou Mobei's attempt to provoke him.

But in his heart, it was already like a stagnant pool.

After saving the photo, Lu Zheng logged into his personal blog without hesitation and posted a resignation notice.

He will never set foot in the Jiang Group again in his life, nor will he ever have any connection with Jiang Li'er again.

He pressed the send button, feeling relieved.

However, less than five minutes later, Lu Zheng's message caused an uproar.
