"No, no!" Lu Xingming realized, "Even if the eldest brother is over there, you can't go to the countryside. You grew up in the city and don't know how to farm at all. You can't go. You still have to find my father and change your name."
Gu Tingzhi looked at the girl in front of him. Ever since he arrived, his eyes had been fixed on Meng Fuyan. The girl's appearance was truly outstanding. Her eyes were big, bright, and sparkling. She was really beautiful.
These were the most beautiful eyes he had ever seen; they truly seemed to speak.
The little girl was quite young, with a fair complexion and a bandage on her forehead, clearly someone who had been pampered since childhood. At that moment, there were tear stains on her cheeks, making one want to hug her and comfort her.
Gu Tingzhi couldn't help but speak up, "Although I'll take care of you, you grew up in the city and I can tell from your appearance that you're spoiled. You might not be used to going to the countryside. Do you want to stay in the city? If you do... I can help you change your name."
Meng Fuyan was taken aback. Change her name?
If the Gu family had the power and influence, they could indeed help her achieve that, but this was the first time she had ever met Gu Tingzhi!
Moreover, at this time, Gu Tingzhi probably wouldn't be able to utilize the Gu family's resources, right?
His father was very biased and didn't care much about him. If Gu Tingzhi hadn't been so capable, the Gu family would never have taken him back.
Meng Fuyan shook her head. "No need. The document has already been issued. Changing my name at this time is too troublesome. I'd better go to the countryside. When Uncle Lu comes back, he'll arrange a job for me. I'll be back soon."
Gu Tingzhi frowned. "The countryside isn't as good as you imagine. You're just a little girl. You'll suffer if you go there, whether you have money or not. Staying in the city is the best option."
Meng Fuyan still refused. If she had hesitated before, now that she knew Gu Tingzhi was going there to gain experience and not to be sent to the countryside by his stepmother, she was even more determined to go.
This was her most solid business partner in her past life, and she wanted to keep him in her hands in this life as well. How to establish a partnership with a big shot? The first step is to make contact, right?
If she stays in Changning City, how will she get involved with Gu Tingzhi?
Based on the trajectory of her previous life, Gu Tingzhi should still be able to make contributions if he goes there. She can also find an opportunity to show off. Those people are her enemies, and she must avenge them.
Wu Guozhu is here in Changning City. He's a deputy factory director, and he has connections all over the place. It won't be easy to deal with him and his children.
Although the Meng family still had some former subordinates, they were no longer around. Moreover, she wanted their lives, not just to make them suffer. Such a big matter would not be something an ordinary person would help her with.
Therefore, human relationships should be used wisely.
Now that the battlefield has changed and she's in the countryside, her starting point is the same as that of the Wu siblings. She has to go to the countryside first, deal with them, and then come back.
Seeing that she insisted on going, Gu Tingzhi didn't try to persuade her anymore, but he was also a little surprised that she would be so determined.
Lu Xingming was worried. "Sis, are you really going?"
Meng Fuyan nodded, "Yes, the situation in Changning City is very complicated. Uncle Lu is also in a bad situation recently. The Yuan family is keeping an eye on him. It's best not to cause any more trouble. I'll go there first and come back after I've arranged the work."
"Assigning a job is much easier than changing a name."
Thinking of the Yuan family, Lu Xingming could only shut his mouth.
The Yuan family was powerful and influential in Changning City. The previous leader favored the Meng family, but the Yuan family, being opportunistic, took a lot of benefits from the Meng family, yet abandoned them after the Meng family members gradually passed away.
Yuan Yi, a junior member of the Yuan family, is the one who was shot dead by Meng Fuyan in the previous life. He was Meng Fuyan's fiancé before.
The marriage was arranged by the Yuan family before Meng Suqin passed away. At that time, she gave the Yuan family a lot of benefits, and the Yuan family readily agreed, waiting only for Meng Fuyan to graduate from high school before the engagement.
Meng Fuyan graduated and started working last year. On the day of her engagement banquet, Yuan Yi did not attend. At that time, Wu Siyu had an accident and went to the hospital, and Yuan Yi went to the hospital to take care of Wu Siyu.
Later, Wu Guozhu intervened and called off the engagement.
Actually, he wanted to switch the marriage to Wu Siyu, but the Yuan family disagreed, so he had to give up for the time being.
When Lu Jianjun learned of this, he was so angry that he went and beat up Wu Guozhu, and then took Meng Fuyan to the Yuan family.
Although the Yuan family is powerful, the Lu family is not to be trifled with either. Lu Jianjun himself is indeed just the director of the Changning City Machinery Factory, but his elder brother is no ordinary person in Beijing.
The Yuan family was indeed in the wrong. Later, they compensated Meng Fuyan with 5,000 yuan and a bunch of tickets, and the marriage was canceled.
Of course, Lu Jianjun also offended the Yuan family.
Lu Xingming felt aggrieved, but he was helpless. He could only say to Gu Tingzhi, "Boss, this is my own sister. You must take good care of her. I will definitely not let those bastards from the Wu family get away with this."
Looking at Lu Xingming like this, Meng Fuyan felt a warmth in her heart. She tugged at his sleeve and said with a smile, "It's okay. The place I'm going to isn't too hard. Besides, I still have some money left by my mother. I won't go hungry."
"Third Brother, why are you back? You were just back half a year ago, and you're on vacation again so soon?"
"It's not a holiday. I'm out on a mission and just happened to be passing through. I'm leaving tomorrow."
Meng Fuyan immediately said, "What time is your train tomorrow? I'll see you off at the train station."
"Need not."
"No, I have to go. I'm taking the train to Northeast China early the day after tomorrow, and I don't know when we'll see each other again. I must go see you off tomorrow."
