Chapter 69 Chapter 69 I'm Sorry
Since Lu Sui was on a business trip, Yu Wan did not ask directly about Lu Yusen, but instead asked him tactfully when he would return to Hai City and if they could meet and talk.
Lu Sui replied quickly: "Is there anything I can help you with? Was that what you were asking me about the other day when I asked if I had time?"
Yu Wan quickly typed: [No, no, it has nothing to do with that incident. It has to do with you, Brother Lu Sui.]
Lu Sui: [Me?]
Yu Wan: [Well, a lot of things are inconvenient to talk about via text, so let's talk when you return to Hai City, okay?]
Lu Sui: [Of course.]
After exiting the chat box, Lu Sui's dark eyes suddenly became stern. He knew the reason why Yu Wan sent him a message that day. As long as Yu Wan was not injured, he didn't care about the rest.
But Yu Wan sent him a message saying that she wanted to meet him, and emphasized that it was because of him. There must be other reasons behind this.
Lu Sui swiped through the contact list and sent a message. After a moment, he received a reply.
After glancing at the information on the screen, Lu Sui stood up and slowly walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. Beneath his feet was a bustling city with lights just coming on. The tall buildings were half shrouded in bright light and half hidden in the night, looking magnificent.
Lu Sui called Lu Yusen. When the call was connected, deafening music and drum beats came from the other end.
Fortunately, Lu Sui was already used to it and didn't put the phone to his ear. He waited until Lu Yusen was quiet before speaking: "Have you looked for Yu Wan?"
Lu Yusen had been drinking and was a little dizzy. He leaned against the window, his back slightly arched, a cigarette between his lips. A hot woman in a suspender came up to him and lit the cigarette for him. Lu Yusen hugged her and kissed her. The woman looked at him with seductive eyes and left slowly.
He was the only one left on the balcony. Lu Yusen dusted off his cigarette ash and said nonchalantly, "That's why you called."
"What did you tell her?"
Lu Sui's tone was hard and cold, and Lu Yusen could clearly sense his displeasure. "What? Are you starting to settle scores with me? Then it's too late for you. I started sending her flowers half a month ago."
"Don't change the subject."
"Okay, okay, my dear brother, I'm just trying to help you. If you're sick, just tell me earlier. Girls are always susceptible to pretending to be pitiful. I'm helping you break through this window paper earlier. You should thank me."
"You know that's not what I'm talking about."
Lu Yusen narrowed his eyes, took a puff of his cigarette, and put out the rest on the window. "You mean Xinmao? It's just a matter of convenience. If Fu Zhiyao knew about your relationship with Yu Wan, do you think he would still let Yu Wan be his secretary? I'm giving her a chance to make a pledge of allegiance."
"Don't go crazy." Lu Sui's voice was faintly threatening. "Don't look for Yu Wan again, otherwise, I don't mind handing this project over to Zeng Wenzhi."
Lu Sui didn't believe that Lu Yusen had no interest in the Lu family's wealth. Lu Yusen was best at disguise. On the surface, he was a dandy boy who indulged in eating, drinking and having fun, but he did a lot of things to sow discord behind the scenes. He used him to play games with Zeng Wenzhi and kept the power of Yufeng firmly in the hands of the Lu family.
As for his stepmother, Lu Yusen was probably waiting for Lu Zongxin to die and then force Zeng Wenzhi to go abroad to fend for herself.
After all, Lu Yusen is Lu Zongxin's son. Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. Lu Zongxin won't treat Lu Yusen badly, but with Zeng Wenzhi around, everything becomes a variable.
Therefore, the person who can best control Lu Yusen is not Lu Zongxin, but Zeng Wenzhi.
"Oh, great love." Lu Yusen stood up straight and snorted softly, "Okay, I won't touch Yu Wan, but I want Xin Mao, my good brother, can you do it?"
Lu Sui did not answer.
Lu Yusen didn't force him. Isn't there Song Chuchu?
I believe Song Chuchu will give him a satisfactory result.
Song Chuchu didn't know how she got back home. She felt as if all her energy had been drained away and she was in a daze. She had already received enough shocks today, probably more than she had ever received in her entire life.
Lu Juefeng deliberately concealed his identity in order to get close to Yu Wan; Lu Juefeng has always liked Yu Wan; Lu Juefeng has a mental illness; her father, who is like a transparent man, actually has an illegitimate child outside!
Song Chuchu didn't intend to gamble with Lu Yusen, but when she saw Lu Yusen's reply, her heart felt like it fell from a height and turned into a puddle of mud.
Brother Juefeng: [Sorry, I had something to do that day and couldn’t meet you.]
Song Chuchu stared at the line of words until her eyes became dry. Finally, she lost all her strength and slid to the ground. She raised her hands and grabbed her hair, her expression twisted in pain.
Why, why?
Didn’t Brother Juefeng give her a custom-made luxury dress on her birthday? And didn’t he accept her invitation to dance with her at the birthday party?
Why is Yu Wan still the one he cares about the most?!
If Brother Juefeng really has a serious mental illness as Lu Yusen said, what should she do?
Can mental illness be cured? Does she have to wait until Brother Juefeng’s mental illness is cured before she can be with him?
No, even if Juefeng has a mental illness, she can still be with him. She can accompany him to slowly recover from the illness. Maybe Juefeng will fall in love with her because of her company, but how long will it take? Can she afford to wait?
Before that, there was the obstacle of Yu Wan.
She and Brother Juefeng are obviously childhood sweethearts. She and Brother Juefeng have definitely known and spent more time together than Yu Wan. Why is Brother Juefeng still obsessed with Yu Wan?
And that damn illegitimate child, did she think that the property she could inherit safely would have to be divided half with others in the end?
When Song Chuchu thought of this, she was so frightened and panicked that she burst into tears. She couldn't accept it. She couldn't accept that Brother Juefeng was taken away, nor could she accept that the wealth that should have belonged to her was taken away by others.
She can't accept it!
Knock knock knock.
There was a knock on the door, and it was Yu Heya's voice: "Chu Chu, Sister Xu said that you are not quite right. Can mom come in to see?"
Yu Heya's voice was soft, and she was always patient and gentle, as if she could tolerate all her little tempers.
Song Chuchu opened the door, threw herself into Yu Heya's arms, and finally burst into tears, "Mom, I feel so bad, I really feel so bad..."
Yu Heya hugged Song Chuchu and let her cry in her arms. The warm palm of her hand patted Song Chuchu's back gently, "It's okay, it's okay, tell mom what happened, mom will solve it for you. In this world, except life and death, all problems are not problems. You are my daughter, just believe me, mom will settle everything for you."
With Yu Heya's comfort, Song Chuchu slowly stopped sobbing. She broke away from Yu Heya's arms, looked at her with red eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Really, Mom?"
Yu Heya smiled calmly and said, "Of course it's true."

Because of the National Day holiday, Yu Wan only had one day off this week and went to work as usual on Sunday, so she scheduled a meeting with Lu Sui on Saturday afternoon and had dinner together.
I thought I had warned Lu Yusen last night that he wouldn't send me flowers again, but Yu Wan still received a message from Xiao Zhao at the front desk: [Secretary Yu, there are flowers for you again!]
Yu Wan frowned.
Yu Wan: [Yingying, I'll give it to you. I won't go downstairs.]
Zhao Yingying: [No, Secretary Yu, although I like this bouquet very much, there is a small card inside. Otherwise, Secretary Yu, can you come down and take a look?]
Yu Wan put down her phone and went downstairs.
Xiao Zhao winked at Yu Wan with a gossipy look on his face and held the bouquet in front of her. "Secretary Yu, give me a wink. Was this the bouquet sent by the man in the sports car yesterday? But this bouquet was delivered by the florist. I asked the employee, and he said that a handsome man in a suit went to the store to order it last night. It's different from the bouquets I signed for before. The previous ones were all ordered through a delivery app."
Yu Wan had no idea about this. She just had a headache. Fortunately, she didn't waste time arguing with Lu Yusen in front of the company building. Otherwise, if Lu Yusen stayed a little longer, her underwear would probably be stripped off.
Yu Wan could never wash herself clean even if she jumped into the Yellow River for openly staying with the president of a rival company downstairs of the company.
Facing Xiao Zhao's curious face, Yu Wan pinched her vital point: "If you are curious again, I won't help you get your idol's concert tickets next time."
Xiao Zhao suffocated: "..."
She covered her heart and backed away exaggeratedly, "No, no!"
The president's office has a fast internet connection, and countless people were eyeing tickets for her idol's concert during this National Day holiday. Zhao Yingying asked several people for help, but in the end, it was Secretary Yu who helped her grab one with his internet speed and hand speed.
Xiao Zhao pouted in grievance, "I'm not curious. Secretary Yu, please help me out next time there's a concert. I'll continue to treat you to milk tea for half a month."
Yu Wan was just teasing her. "Okay, I was just kidding. Get back to work. You haven't finished your weekly diary yet. Be careful about getting criticized by Manager Ji."
"Got it!" Xiao Zhao said with a giggle.
Yu Wan smiled and walked towards the elevator holding the bouquet of flowers.
The huge bouquet was really eye-catching. There were roughly ninety flowers in it, and Yu Wan had difficulty holding it with both hands. The beautiful and delicate cream-cup yellow roses had plump and thick petals with many layers. The gradient tone of light yellow transitioned from the center stamen to cream white towards the edge. The color was soft and the fragrance was not strong. The overall packaging design was more advanced than the one Lu Yusen had given her before.
Yu Wan had a vague guess in her mind, but when she saw the pure white piece of paper half the size of a palm in the bouquet, she completely understood who sent it.
There are only three words on it: Sorry
Yu Wan: “…”
The elevator door opened at this time, and Guan Yanxuan stepped in. When he saw Yu Wan, he paused. When he saw the bouquet of flowers in Yu Wan's arms, he was stunned again.
"Hello, Director Guan." Yu Wan quickly stuffed the piece of paper into the bouquet and greeted Guan Yanxuan.
"Um."
Guan Yanxuan came back to his senses, pressed the elevator floor, and stood beside Yu Wan.
The elevator was extremely quiet and no one spoke. Guan Yanxuan glanced at Yu Wan out of the corner of his eye. Yu Wan looked much more energetic today than in the past few days.
The one-shoulder linen knitted short-sleeved top is paired with a light brown umbrella skirt. The lines of the clothes are simple and clean, and the pleats at the waist focus the visual center of gravity. The slightly curly long hair is pinned to the ears with black hairpins, revealing a clean and fair face. There is a teardrop-shaped silver earring on the earlobe. Even when holding flowers, her back is still straight, and her temperament is elegant. Compared with the purely intuitive and impactful strong face, there is a more intellectual beauty that can be carefully examined.
Guan Yanxuan slowly withdrew his gaze.
He was not unaware of the recent cooling of the relationship between Fu Zhiyao and Yu Wan. Although he could take advantage of this opportunity and act as a despicable plunderer, he had already deserted and chosen to give up when he knew that Fu Zhiyao liked Yu Wan. He did not think that he was worthy of Yu Wan's love. Therefore, in the subsequent work handover, he would hardly appear in front of Yu Wan unless it was necessary.
And now, looking at Yu Wan's condition, have they reconciled again?
