Chapter 236 Sugar-Coated Bullets



"Miss, I..." How was she supposed to explain this to Lu Jin?

Before she could finish speaking, Lu Jin casually reached out and put his arm around Ali's neck.

"Ali, you're amazing! You scared Li Anran so much that she couldn't speak when you appeared."

"If I ever meet Li Anran again, I will definitely take you with me."

Ali reacted to Li Anran like a mouse to a cat; if she had a camera nearby, she would definitely have taken it down to record it.

I have to take it out and admire it whenever I have a spare moment.

"Young Miss, don't you have any questions for me?"

She revealed her true self at the base because she was so eager to protect Lu Jintai.

Within the base, she had become the second most powerful figure, second only to the leader.

Now, everyone in the base is afraid of her, and she's even been called Li Anran.

"What do you want to ask? I don't have anything to ask."

After Ali left the Lu family, she seemed like a completely different person.

To transform a person into this, they must have gone through a lot of difficulties.

Those things might still be Ali's pain. If she asks more questions, wouldn't that be like reopening Ali's wounds?

"Young Miss!" A hint of tears welled up in Ali's eyes.

Lu Jin trusted her to this extent.

She had overheard a conversation between Lu Jin and Lu Shen, in which Lu Shen expressed his hope that Lu Jin would thoroughly investigate her background during this period.

Even though he knew she had problems, Lu Jin didn't change his attitude towards her in the slightest.

"Don't be so moved right away, I'm afraid you won't be able to laugh later."

"Let me tell you, Ruoxi's birthday party today was so much fun! My brother pretended to be her date..."

Lu Jin talked non-stop about what he had seen and heard that day to Ali, leaving Ali completely stunned.

"Young Master Lu would actually do so much for Miss Jian?"

He gave his home to Jian Ruoxi as the venue for her birthday party and even came over to be her date.

This doesn't seem like something Young Master Lu would do.

"Does Young Master Lu want to get back together with Miss Jian?"

This was the only possibility she could think of.

But if that's really the case, what will happen to my boss?

Everyone in the base knew that the boss treated Jian Ruoxi differently.

"It's only a matter of time before they get back together."

Lu Jin had already anticipated this.

The eldest brother finally realized that he had feelings for Ruoxi.

Even after all this time, Ruoxi still hasn't let go of her older brother.

All they need is time.

When Lu Jin looked up, he noticed the somewhat serious expression on Ali's face.

"Ali, Ruoxi and my older brother got back together, aren't you happy?"

Ali's brows were almost knitted together just now.

"No, no, I'm happy if Miss Jane is happy."

Even though she couldn't attend the birthday party, she could roughly guess that Miss Jian must have been in a good mood these past few days because of Young Master Lu's presence.

Just as they expected, Ruoxi was humming a song as she went down to the lobby early in the morning.

"Good morning, Miss Jian. You seem to be in a very good mood today." The head maid was about to go upstairs to wake her up, but she didn't expect Miss Jian to be up so early this time.

"I'm in a great mood every day, okay?"

Of course, she was happiest yesterday.

Even at night, she dreamt of dancing with Lu Shen.

"Ms. Jian, here is your breakfast. You still have to go to work later. Mr. Ran just called and said he would come to pick you up later."

Jian Ruoxi glanced sideways and saw that a set of tableware had already been set on the table. "That wouldn't be Ran Jie's, would it?"

The head maid nodded helplessly, "You guessed right, it was indeed prepared for Mr. Ran."

"Mr. Ran called specifically to say he'd come over for breakfast too."

Jian Ruoxi looked up at the sky speechlessly, while Ran Jie seized the opportunity and knew how to enjoy it.

While Lu Shen is away, we should take advantage of any opportunity we can.

"Wow, as expected of Lu Shen's men, this was handled beautifully. Look at how exquisite the breakfast is."

Just then, Ran Jie came in, plopped down in a chair in the restaurant, and made as if he was about to start eating.

"You're not being polite at all. Now you're not afraid of Lu Shen anymore?"

She still remembers when she first met Ran Jie, Ran Jie and Lu Shen didn't get along at all.

One of them was like a newborn calf that was not afraid of tigers, and he even looked down on Lu Shen.

The other person immediately had bodyguards surround the man, eager to teach him a lesson.

"What a joke! When have I ever been afraid of Lu Shen?"

He was just too lazy to argue with Lu Shen.

Ran Jie finished his breakfast in no time.

"I have an interview today, so we'll head out immediately after we finish eating."

The head maid glanced sideways at Ran Jie, inwardly complaining.

He finished eating, but Miss Jian hadn't touched her chopsticks much.

Is work really that urgent?

Ran Jie felt the head maid's gaze and couldn't help but shiver.

Why are all the people under Lu Shen so bad-tempered?

"Don't be so young and always act like Lu Shen's bodyguards. Always having a stern face will cause you to get wrinkles."

What's the point of glaring at him? He's just an employee too.

If he were a boss like Lu Shen, would he need to urge his artists to work every day?

Forget it, he wouldn't bother arguing with a maid.

"Can we go now?" he urged Jian Ruoxi again.

Jian Ruoxi just kept smiling foolishly at Ran Jie, showing no intention of getting up.

Ran Jie suddenly had a bad feeling.

He's very familiar with this expression; most other celebrities make this expression when something goes wrong.

"Don't tell me you don't want to go today."

Jian Ruoxi clapped her hands excitedly, "Why don't you just say that my manager understands me best?"

She was about to step forward and pat him on the shoulder when Ran Jie called out to her.

"Stop, hold on, you'd be better off saving your sweet talk for Lu Shen."

Jian Ruoxi felt a little embarrassed by what Ran Jie said.

She and Lu Shenke didn't have that kind of relationship.

Never mind, none of that matters. I'll talk to Ran Jie and try to get some personal time to prepare some things.

"Ran Jie, you are a top-notch agent in the industry, with first-class ability to handle things."

“I heard from others that it shouldn’t be difficult for you to discuss another time with reporters.”

Ran Jie rolled his eyes at her. Jian Ruoxi used to be so dedicated.

No matter what work he assigned, Ruoxi would complete it diligently.

And he never lets personal matters interfere with his work.

Why is she acting so strangely today?

"How can it not be a difficult thing?"

How could you possibly know how much effort I put in?

They'll all cause him trouble.

"By the way, who told you that I could handle all of this?"

He had previously emphasized to Ruoxi that everything had to give way to work.
