President Zheng's eyes flickered slightly as he smiled and looked at the person opposite him. "You're Jian Ruoxi?"
He was very familiar with the name.
He had paid attention to Jian Ruoxi when she first made her comeback.
At the time, I admired her courage to debut again after three years.
However, after Jian Mengyu told him what had happened when they were at home together, his impression of Jian Ruoxi immediately turned sour.
General Manager Zheng spoke to Jian Ruoxi using the same tone he used when reprimanding his employees.
"Miss Jian, you shouldn't be so stingy."
"Mengyu has already forgiven you for what you did to her in the past, so why are you still holding onto what happened last time?"
"No matter what, you are all family, and you all have the same blood in your veins."
Mr. Zheng's few words made Jian Ruoxi laugh.
What? She's not magnanimous enough?
Does she really need the Jian family to be crawling on her neck and sucking her blood?
"So, Mr. Zheng must be someone who values family very much." Jian Ruoxi raised her eyebrows and looked at Mr. Zheng meaningfully.
Mr. Zheng was unaware of the trap Jian Ruoxi had set for him, and answered almost without thinking.
"That's natural."
Mr. Zheng always appreciates praise from others.
Jian Ruoxi deliberately glanced between President Zheng and Jian Mengyu, then suddenly realized what was going on.
"I see, I've learned something new."
Even if President Zheng was slow to react, he realized what Jian Ruoxi meant at this moment.
They deliberately brought up his relationship with Jian Mengyu, and even used the word "family affection" to satirize him.
Just as Jian Mengyu said, Jian Ruoxi is a femme fatale with a black heart.
Mr. Zheng's voice turned colder. "It seems Miss Jian doesn't understand what I'm saying. Is she determined to dwell on the past?"
Then, President Zheng looked at Lu Jin, who was standing to the side.
"I was originally very interested in Miss Lu's script. Since you know Mengyu, I thought we could let Mengyu join Miss Lu's crew for some training."
“I know there may have been some misunderstandings between you before, but Miss Jane seems to be very hostile towards us.”
Upon hearing what President Zheng said, Lu Jin quickly took a few steps back.
"Mr. Zheng, you're speaking a bit too soon. The other investors haven't arrived yet."
"I never said I would necessarily cooperate with you."
"We have to give other investors a chance, don't we?"
Back when President Zheng was helping Jian Mengyu attack Ruoxi, Lu Jin had already secretly crossed President Zheng's name off in his mind.
Mr. Zheng's investment is necessary for her, but that doesn't give him the right to bully her.
Would Lu Jin really lack that kind of investment?
What a joke!
If all else fails, she still has the Lu Group to back her up.
Give President Zheng some face. Does he really think he's someone important?
Mr. Zheng sensed that Lu Jin seemed a little unhappy, and immediately became flustered.
"Miss Lu, we can talk this out calmly, please don't get angry."
Although Lu Jin doesn't own any of the Lu family's businesses, outsiders like them are unaware of what's going on in the Lu family.
But no matter what, she is the eldest daughter of the Lu family. With the Lu family's prestige, who can easily make her angry?
Jian Mengyu later learned Lu Jin's true identity. Seeing that something was wrong, she wondered if she could help President Zheng salvage the situation.
After all, right now, Mr. Zheng is the only powerful figure she can rely on.
Unable to say anything to Lu Jin, she could only speak to Jian Ruoxi.
"Sister, Mr. Zheng meant well, why are you even talking about other people?"
Jian Mengyu appeared to be standing up for President Zheng.
President Zheng nodded to Jian Mengyu with satisfaction. This Jian Mengyu was quite perceptive and considerate.
Am I wrong?
"Jian Mengyu, think back carefully."
"Before, it was no use for me to face you at home; you tried every possible way to kick me out."
"Now that you see I'm beneficial to you, you're coming to beg for reconciliation? Even the most magnanimous person wouldn't do that, would they?"
Jian Ruoxi revealed the truth and then deliberately observed her younger sister's expression.
It was as wonderful as ever.
Jian Mengyu was initially angry, but then she pursed her lips tightly and pretended to be very aggrieved.
Her eyes were glistening with tears, as if she was about to cry.
Seeing Jian Mengyu like this, President Zheng felt extremely distressed and pointed at Jian Ruoxi's nose, scolding her.
"You really are as some people on the internet say: selfish, ruthless, and vicious. No wonder Young Master Lu didn't want you in the first place."
"A woman like you, no one can stay with you for long."
Jian Mengyu found these words very satisfying, but on the surface, she still pretended to be a close sister.
"Mr. Zheng, please don't say that. My sister is also very pitiful..."
Is it pitiful?
Jian Ruoxi never felt that she was anything to be pitied.
It is true that Lu Shen abandoned her because of Li Anran, but that was entirely due to feelings.
I remember that when he left, Lu Shen gave me a large sum of money as compensation.
Sigh, if it weren't for being such a good friend, how could the dignified Young Master Lu feel guilty?
"Mr. Zheng, you've gone too far!"
"Are you here for the banquet? Or are you here to cause trouble?"
"Don't forget, this is my brother's private residence. If anyone dares to cause trouble here, I have the right to throw you out."
"Or does Mr. Zheng want to be blacklisted by the Lu family and never be able to attend any high-profile banquets again?"
Mr. Zheng's expression immediately froze; he didn't want either outcome.
If Lu Jin kicks me out of here today, I believe the news will spread throughout the entire business world before the day is over.
He was so ashamed he couldn't face anyone anymore.
"Alright, Xiao Jin, don't be angry. It's not worth getting yourself upset." Jian Ruoxi gently patted Lu Jin's shoulder, signaling her to calm down.
What Mr. Zheng said was a bit excessive, but she didn't think much of it.
His language skills are far inferior to those of online trolls; this level of attack wouldn't cause her any psychological harm.
"It doesn't matter how Mr. Zheng sees me, and I have nothing to explain to you."
"Who I can stay with for the long term? I don't know either. When we have the answer in the future, Mr. Zheng can see for himself."
"As I said before, if you're here for the party, then Xiao Jin and I both welcome you. After all, guests are always welcome, and there's a hotel owned by the Lu family not far ahead for guests to rest."
"If you're going to cause trouble, I won't stop Xiao Jin from teaching you a lesson."
Jian Ruoxi spoke with conviction, and as soon as she finished speaking, the servants immediately surrounded President Zheng and Jian Mengyu in a tight circle.
It was as if they could throw the person out immediately at Jian Ruoxi's command.
Jian Mengyu looked puzzled, not understanding why the Lu family's servants listened to Jian Ruoxi so much.
Strange, didn't Jian Ruoxi already divorce Lu Shao?
She looked so much like the lady of the house just now.
