Chapter 159 I think I'm in love with you
She took a deep breath and gritted her teeth, "I wasn't very respectful to you before, but I thought we were at least friends, so I didn't have so many reservations about you."
Her tone suddenly became distant and polite, which made Shen Yubai panic.
"If you have a problem with me because of this, I apologize to you."
"It was me who didn't recognize my own position and made Mr. Shen unhappy."
"Please, Mr. Shen, be kind and don't treat me like a small person."
Every word is like a needle, piercing the eardrum and piercing the heart.
The people who had always yelled at him and called him Shen Yubai, now respectfully called him - Mr. Shen.
Chen Yubai watched her get angry with him for another man and use such words to hurt him. The nameless anger in his heart burned even more fiercely, but it was also mixed with a hint of inexplicable bitterness.
"Is that what you think of me?"
He gritted his teeth, his voice filled with uncontrollable anger.
"Am I free?"
"So free that I have to show up next to you from time to time just to tease you?"
Su Mo was stunned by his question.
What does he mean?
Looking at the obvious confusion on her face, the anger in Shen Yubai's heart strangely dissipated a little.
Instead, there is a feeling of frustration that is almost helpless.
He stared at her, the cynicism in his eyes completely gone, and his voice was gentler than ever before.
"Su Mo."
"I think I'm in love with you."
The air froze instantly.
Su Mo blinked, tears still hanging on her eyelashes.
She suspected she was hallucinating.
After a few seconds, she suddenly laughed, and tears came out of her eyes.
"Mr. Shen, your joke is not funny at all."
"I'm not your type. If you're single for too long, there are plenty of women who want you."
She wiped her face, her eyes sarcastic.
"We've known each other for a while, and this... isn't very authentic."
"Su Mo."
Shen Yubai interrupted her, his eyes more serious than ever before.
"I stood outside for a long time, and every word I said just now was carefully considered."
He took another step forward, his aura enveloping her completely.
"Of course, we're all adults."
"I want to try it with you."
"For the purpose of marriage."
"I'm serious."
Su Mo was completely confused.
marry?
With Chen Yubai?
This idea, which was even more outrageous than Pei Huaizhi's, made her brain crash.
The office door was pushed open a crack at some point.
Sang Wan and Lu Tingzhou were standing at the door.
The expressions on their faces were exactly the same as Su Mo's.
Confused.
They heard the quarrel inside getting louder and louder, and came to check it out because they were worried.
As soon as I reached the door, I heard this earth-shattering confession.
When did Shen Yubai have this idea?
Judging from his posture, it seems... he is really a little drunk.
Shen Yubai also noticed the movement at the door. When he turned around, he saw the two faces full of shock.
He was stunned for a moment.
Then, as if he had found reinforcements, he pulled Lu Tingzhou in from outside the door.
"It just so happens that you two are here too."
He looked at Su Mo, pointed at Lu Tingzhou who looked confused, and spoke in a frank and confident tone.
"Tingzhou knows best what kind of person I, Chen Yubai, am."
"Let me put it this way. If we really don't get along, we can part ways amicably and remain friends in the future."
"But I will never do anything unilateral."
"You can ask him about that."
He paused and added.
"Of course, since you've been at Lu's before, you should know that I never changed girlfriends because I had someone else in my heart. It was because I felt that they were not suitable after dating."
Lu Tingzhou frowned.
Can this matter... also be used to prove that one has good character?
He looked at Sang Wan for help, lowered his voice, with a hint of request in his eyes.
"Wife, I think Yu Bai is serious this time... How about we..."
Sang Wan glanced over.
Lu Tingzhou immediately shut up tactfully.
He glanced at Shen Yubai sympathetically, silently took a step back, and signaled with his eyes: It's up to you, brother can't help you.
Sang Wan ignored the two men, walked straight to Su Mo, and gently held her cold hand.
She soothed him softly, "Momo, don't panic."
"Follow your heart."
"Think about this matter carefully. I didn't say you have to make a decision now."
Su Mo seemed to have found his backbone and subconsciously held Sang Wan's hand.
She glanced at Shen Yubai, who looked expectant, and her heart was in a mess.
Not suitable for making any decisions.
She nodded and chose to listen to Sang Wan.
First...think about it carefully.
——
Time flies and it is New Year's Eve.
This was the first time that Sang Wan attended the Lu family's family dinner as the daughter-in-law of the Lu family.
The Lu family's old house was brightly lit, creating a festive and peaceful atmosphere.
But the atmosphere at the table was undercurrent.
Lu Tingfeng returned home rarely. He sat side by side with Tang Qinlan. Both of them were obviously in a bad mood, but because Lu Qiming was present, they tried their best to restrain themselves.
I had a meal that I had no idea how to enjoy.
After the dinner, everyone moved to the living room.
Lu Qiming sat in the main seat and motioned the butler to take out a document.
"Please sit down."
The old man's voice was not loud, but it carried an authority that brooked no room for questioning.
The living room suddenly became quiet.
Lu Qiming glanced at the descendants present and spoke slowly.
"Since the family has been so unstable recently, it must be because of the small amount of shares I hold. Let's make things clear today while everyone is here."
"It saves you all from worrying about it every day."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Tingfeng's back subconsciously tensed up.
Lu Qiming pushed the document to the center of the table.
"I own 15% of Lu's shares."
"From today on, Tingzhou will account for 7% of this 15%."
He looked towards the other two rooms.
"You two families each own 4 percent."
When these words were spoken, everyone in the room was shocked.
Lu Tingfeng's face turned pale in an instant.
He clenched his teeth instantly, the muscles in his cheeks tensed due to the force, and his hands were clenched into fists at his sides.
eccentric!
The bias is too obvious!
Originally, Lu Tingzhou held 5% more shares than him.
Now, the old man directly gave Lu Tingzhou 7%, but only gave his family 4%.
In this way, Lu Tingzhou's shares will be a full eight percentage points higher than his.
This means that from now on, Lu Tingzhou will have absolute say in the Lu family.
Tang Qinlan felt the stiffness of the man beside her.
She glanced at him with a sneer. What's the use of scheming? Your father is just partial. What's the point of being angry to death?
Lu Tingfeng's gaze was like a knife, fixed on Lu Qiming who was sitting in the main seat.
"dad."
He spoke, his voice as if squeezed out from between his teeth, filled with suppressed resentment.
"You are too biased."
In the living room, even the air seemed to be stagnant.
Lu Tingfeng stood up suddenly, and the chair legs rubbed against the marble floor, making a sharp scream.
"You secretly gave a portion of the shares held by the two aunts to the third brother, so that he already had more than me."
"Now, you're being so partial to one and unfair to the other."
His bloodshot eyes swept over Lu Tingzhou, who had an indifferent expression.
"Why?"
"He owns 7%, and our two families are only entitled to 4%?"
Lu Qiming picked up the teacup and blew away the foam without even lifting his eyelids.
"Because he is Lu Tingzhou, he accomplished in half a year what you failed to accomplish in two years."
The old man said it lightly, but it was more hurtful than any insult.
Lu Tingfeng was shaking all over and his chest was heaving violently.
"I'm not as capable as him, but I'm also your son."
He said this in a somewhat shameless way, as if to say that my incompetence was due to your poor birth.
Sang Wan lowered her eyes and bit her lip, but the corners of her mouth trembled uncontrollably.
Lu Tingzhou played with her hand, and seeing that she was trying to hold back her laughter, he pinched the back of her hand gently.
The old man was also angry. Just as he was about to speak, Lu Tingfeng seemed to think that what he said was too childish and quickly waved his hand.
"Let's not talk about those useless things. Since we have to divide it, let's be fair."
"It's calculated per head."
"Both those born in the family and those not born are counted as one share."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes became subtle.
A sneer flashed across Tang Qinlan's face. He earned chips while playing and took all the good things.
Lu Tingfeng has a son and a daughter, plus the one in Xu Mingyue's belly, there are three people in total.
Lu Jinxuan is the only son of his eldest brother.
As for Lu Tingzhou and Sang Wan, there has been no movement so far.
By this calculation, his family is undoubtedly the biggest winner.
After hearing this proposal, Lu Tingzhou finally responded.
He raised his thin lips in a sarcastic arc and smiled.
The smile did not reach his eyes, and was icy cold.
He spoke slowly, his voice not loud but clear to everyone's ears.
"Then wouldn't it be a big loss for Big Brother to have only one room?"
Everyone was stunned.
Lu Tingzhou leaned leisurely on the sofa and turned his gaze to Lu Jinxuan who had been silent.
"Just because the eldest brother isn't as playful as the second brother, his descendants deserve to suffer misfortune?"
“Puff—”
Lu Jinxuan, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but laughed out loud with his head down.
He quickly calmed down, but the heaving of his shoulders still betrayed him.
His uncle is not one to suffer any loss, he has a really poisonous tongue.
With him around, Lu Jinxuan doesn't have to worry.
Lu Tingfeng's face instantly turned the color of liver.
"you!"
He pointed at Lu Tingzhou, so angry that he couldn't speak.
Lu Qiming had been watching coldly, and finally put down the teacup heavily at this moment.
The "pop" sound was particularly loud in the quiet living room.
"You still have the nerve to say that."
The old man paused with his cane and glared at Lu Tingfeng.
"Your son is about to graduate from college, and you're still messing around outside."
"Do you really think the Lu family can't do anything to you?"
He was so angry that he was puffing his beard and glaring.
"Your eldest brother only has Jinxuan, and the third brother doesn't have any children yet. How dare you say that!"
Lu Tingfeng was scolded harshly, but he still stood firm and refused to give in.
Lu Tingzhou raised his eyebrows slightly, his tone calm and composed.
"Correction."
"I have children."
"Due date: early August."
In one sentence, it exploded in the living room like a depth charge.
Lu Qiming's crutch, which was raised in the air, froze.
