Chapter 60 Another Solution
For a period of time, Wen Tingzhu and Lu Pingtao talked more, but Wen Shuzhou felt very bored. When he was occasionally asked, he would just answer with a few words and then stop talking.
"Old Lu, it's almost noon, why don't you stay for lunch? You've been away for many years, it's good to have a taste of home." Wen Tingzhu said hurriedly when he saw Lu Pingtao was about to get up.
"No, Mr. Wen, Yishan is still waiting for me at home!" Lu Pingtao said with a smile.
"That's easy. Lao Lu, give Yishan's niece a call and I'll send a driver to pick her up." Wen Tingzhu said cheerfully.
"Lao Lu, this..."
"Don't be so fussy, it's settled."
Wen Tingzhu immediately called the driver in to take care of the matter.
Wen Shuzhou suppressed his disdain and indifference towards Lu Pingtao in his eyes, and found an excuse to go into his room.
Lu Pingtao fled abroad due to debt problems more than ten years ago. Although it did not cause much impact on the Wen family, he still cheated the Wen family. To be honest, considering Lu Pingtao's character, I don't know how he has the nerve to come to the Wen family now.
...Half an hour later, Lu Yishan came in and Wen Shuzhou was called downstairs unwillingly.
At the dinner table, Lu Yishan kept saying how delicious the food was, looking innocent and cute, but Wen Shuzhou felt uncomfortable with her, thinking it was too artificial.
"If Yishan likes to eat, she should eat more." Shui Ran (the mother of Wen Shuzhou and Wen Qingzhou) said softly.
"Well, thank you, auntie." Lu Yishan smiled sweetly.
...Wen Shuzhou felt sick after the meal. Lu Yishan's fake look and the calculating look in her eyes when she saw him really made Wen Shuzhou lose his appetite. After symbolically moving his chopsticks a few times, Wen Shuzhou excused himself by saying that he had something to do at the company and planned to leave.
"Shuzhou, eat some more!" Shui Ran saw exactly how much her son ate.
Such a grown-up person had lost his appetite because of the father and daughter of the Lu family. At this moment, Shui Ran also felt a little resentful that Wen Tingzhu had come to pick up Lu Yishan without permission.
"No, Mom, I'm leaving first." Wen Shuzhou waved his hand gently.
Before leaving, Lu Pingtao asked Wen Shuzhou anxiously. Wen Shuzhou nodded politely, but accidentally caught a glimpse of Lu Yishan's admiring eyes.
"..." Wen Shuzhou was speechless. Lu Yishan should go to the hospital to have her brain checked out!
"Mom, I've been busy lately, and I guess I will be home less often in the future. Don't call me back for small things like this in the future." While putting on his shoes, Wen Shuzhou deliberately said this so that the Lu father and daughter could hear him, and then he went out.
"Ah...haha..." Lu Pingtao laughed with an extremely unnatural and awkward expression.
After being hit in the face, Lu Yi blushed sadly, and his little face suddenly felt hot.
She had been thinking that Wen Shuzhou was attracted by her, but it turned out that she was just being too wishful.
"Old Lu, don't take Shuzhou's temper to heart. Come, eat some food." Wen Tingzhu greeted Lu Pingtao.
"Okay." There was a hint of loneliness in the corners of Lu Pingtao's eyes.
This time he came to the Wen family with a flattering face, hoping to use the friendship between him and Wen Tingzhu, who grew up together, to get him a job in the Wen family. But now that the real power in the Wen family is in the hands of Wen Shuzhou, and with Wen Shuzhou's attitude, this form will not work, so he has to think of another way!
