Over the next two or three days, news spread that the Lu family's company had been investigated and found to have problems by the Administration for Industry and Commerce. Although Xie Huanyu did not dare to be open about it, she did a lot of work behind the scenes.
Xu Yanshu didn't care at all, knowing full well that with his father-in-law backing him up, this matter wouldn't easily change.
Five days after the incident, Lu Huai intercepted him in the company's underground parking garage.
"You don't actually think you can beat me like this, do you?"
Xu Yanshu neither confirmed nor denied this, saying, "I don't understand what you're saying."
Oh shit!
Lu Huai immediately swore, then gritted his teeth and questioned,
"You dare say that this whole thing has nothing to do with you?"
He never expected that the old man would take it upon himself to approach Xu Yanshu, thus unwittingly disrupting all his plans.
The next day, the company was targeted by the authorities, and he refused to believe that Xu Yanshu was not involved.
At least you have some brains!
A strange light flashed quickly in the depths of her eyes. Xu Yanshu looked at Lu Huai with a questioning gaze, then a cryptic smile appeared on her lips. "You found out!"
The original intention was simply to take this opportunity to teach this person a lesson, so naturally he would keep it to himself.
He wasn't worried that the other party would expose this to Xie Huanyu. Firstly, they both knew that Xie Junyang was the real mastermind behind everything, and if this matter were brought to the forefront, the Lu family's ugly behavior would be completely exposed.
Before the words were even finished, Lu Huai immediately rushed forward and grabbed Xu Yanshu by the collar without saying a word. The latter dared to speak before the fist landed.
"This is a monitored area,"
"If I go to jail now, it will probably be difficult to get out."
The Lu Corporation is currently in the eye of the storm, and Lu Huai's every move is naturally being watched secretly. If he makes a mistake at this time, it won't be easy for just anyone to get him out of trouble.
Knowing that what the other party said was true, Lu Huai had no choice but to reluctantly release the person, his eyes blazing with fury.
A barking dog doesn't bite. Only now has he truly seen Xu Yanshu's true colors. He usually acts like a subservient grandson, but then quietly digs up such a huge opportunity for the Lu family.
"Hey, you surnamed Xu, don't get too cocky!"
"Don't you believe me? Even if I, Lu Huai, really have nothing left, Huan Yu will still follow me willingly."
He naturally believed it; Xie Huanyu had always been blindly trusting and favoring Lu Huai without any bottom line.
Xu Yanshu shrugged indifferently, but what did it have to do with him?
He had long ago made up his mind to divorce Xie Huanyu, and after that, they would be complete strangers.
"I have something to do, so I'll be going now!"
After saying that, Xu Yanshu opened the car door and got into the driver's seat. The Maybach slowly drove out of the garage.
Damn it!
Lu Huai gritted his teeth, the veins on his forehead bulging more and more noticeably, his gloomy face resembling a demon returned from hell.
He never expected that old bastard Xie Junyang would be so ruthless, pushing the company to the brink of bankruptcy and making Xu Yanshu a laughingstock.
"We absolutely can't let this go..." As if suddenly remembering something, Lu Huai gave a cold laugh with an ambiguous meaning, his eyes as sinister as a venomous snake.
To strike a snake, strike its vital spot; as far as he knew, Xu Yanshu cared a great deal about that old man at the sanatorium…

Xie Residence
"Yan Shu, don't worry, the Lu family will never have the chance to cause trouble in front of you again!" Xie Junyang rarely had the leisure to make tea, and as he spoke, he poured a cup of tea and handed it to the person opposite him.
Xu Yanshu accepted the teacup with both hands, then gave the man a feigned grateful look, though inwardly he scoffed at it.
He clearly couldn't tolerate the Lu family, yet he's making it sound like everything he's saying is for his own benefit.
"Huanyu has been relatively well-behaved lately... Never mind, I know that without you even knowing."
"Yan Shu, Huan Yu is just like that, you don't mind, do you?" Xie Junyang asked casually.
“No,” Xu Yanshu shook his head gently, his expression calm and composed. “Huanyu has always been a loyal and affectionate person, and I believe she won’t do anything outrageous.”
Xie Junyang calmly observed Xu Yanshu, and after confirming that there was no sign of deliberate pretense, he withdrew his gaze and nodded with great satisfaction.
As long as he still cares about Huanyu, he will not completely escape his control.
Xu Yanshu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, picked up his teacup and took a small sip, a deep sense of apprehension flashing in his eyes at the same time.
This old fox just wants me to be his puppet willingly. Since that's the case, I'll just put on a show for him. Otherwise, he'll definitely keep watching me.
"I understand that you are in a bad mood as the anniversary of Lao Xu's death approaches, but I have always believed that you are more reliable than Huan Yu, so you still need to pay more attention to the company's affairs in the future."
Not knowing why Xie Junyang would say such a thing, Xu Yanshu frowned imperceptibly, feeling resentful that the other party would always bring up his father, but for the moment she couldn't show it on her face.
"Dad, I understand!"
After finishing their conversation, Xu Yanshu prepared to return to his apartment in Haicheng, only to run into Xie Huanyu as soon as he went downstairs.
"You come straight here after work; you're truly a good son-in-law to my dad!"
Xie Junyang, who was following behind, heard this and immediately shouted angrily.
"Xie Huanyu, speak properly to me!"
Seeing that Xu Yanshu was already thinking about divorcing her, and that she had reminded her before, she was still so arrogant and ignorant.
Xie Huanyu fell silent and continued drinking his ginseng soup, secretly wondering who his biological son was.
The Lu family's problems remain unresolved, and she's not really in the mood to argue with Xu Yanshu. She simply can't stand him constantly running over here.
"Yan Shu, don't take it to heart," Xie Junyang patted Xu Yan Shu's shoulder and said earnestly, "Since it's such a coincidence, you two can go back together later!"
Is it really a coincidence?
Xu Yanshu nodded in agreement, knowing in his heart that this was not a coincidence at all, but rather that some people had ulterior motives.
He was called back by Xie Junyang, and Xie Huanyu had been busy trying to salvage the Lu family these past few days. If there hadn't been a reason, she probably wouldn't have appeared at the Xie residence.
They're just putting on an act!
Xie Huanyu scoffed inwardly. Seeing that the man seemed to intend to wait there, she deliberately slowed down her soup-drinking pace, and only after half an hour did she leisurely stand up from her seat to look—
