Blood ties are sometimes truly magical things. Meng Yunji had never met Lu Guozhong, but standing in front of him at such close range, being looked at with such eyes, and feeling that big hand stroking his face, he inexplicably wanted to lean closer!
Lu Guozhong's emotions came quickly, but he also controlled them just as quickly. He was used to controlling his emotions, and if it weren't for the fact that everyone present today was someone he trusted most, he wouldn't have revealed even this little bit of emotion.
If Meng Fuyan hadn't already known, she might not have been able to see it at all.
At least, Lu Xingye didn't notice.
"Uncle, do you think Yunji looks a bit like my dad? It's such a coincidence. Not only Yunji, but even Yanyan looks a bit like him. We all grew up with Yanyan, and we're almost like siblings."
Lu Guozhong smiled and said, "He does look somewhat like your father. I was quite surprised when I saw him."
He quickly changed the subject, "I had someone check your work records, and you did a good job. Stay here for now, and I'll see if I can arrange a job for you here and personally mentor you."
Lu Xingye was so excited he almost jumped up. "I will definitely work hard and never let Uncle down. Thank you, Uncle!"
"Dinner's ready!"
Lu Jianjun called out and came in carrying two dishes. When he saw Lu Xingye, he was overjoyed, as if he had seen a savior.
"Boss, you're finally here! Hurry up and get the dishes."
Lu Xingye was so excited that he didn't even notice the apron on his father's body and dashed off to the kitchen to serve the dishes.
Soon, the food was served, and everyone sat around the table to eat. Meng Yunji was clearly very attached to his sister. He never expected to be able to come to the capital to see her again. Even if it was just for a short time, he was happy that she would let him go back tomorrow.
"Sis, eat more!"
The little guy serves food to his older sister.
Meng Fuyan paused, then smiled and said, "Eat by yourself. You didn't eat well on the train, did you? Eat more!"
Lu Guozhong watched the two children interact and could see that they had a good relationship, which made him very happy.
After dinner, while the others stayed at home, Lu Guozhong went back to his office. This was his private place, and he no longer needed to hide his emotions. Unable to suppress his excitement, Lu Guozhong almost burst out laughing.
Xiao Chen, who had been following him closely, was startled. "Boss..."
Lu Guozhong waved his hand, "It's nothing, I'm happy, really happy!"
Unexpectedly, he would have such good fortune in middle age; Heaven has truly been kind to him.
"Xiao Chen, bring your sister over here. She'll stay with Yan Yan from now on. When Yan Yan goes abroad, she'll be her bodyguard and protect her."
"And Yunji, I plan to keep him here. He can stay with me from now on. If necessary, I can transfer Xingye and Xingming over to cover for him. Send a few people to follow him secretly and make sure he is safe. By the way, your sister alone is not enough to protect Yanyan. Take a few more people with her and let her lead the team to go abroad with Yanyan. But apart from your sister, the rest of the people can stay hidden in the shadows."
Xiao Chen was stunned. "This...protect them?"
Lu Guozhong looked at Xiao Chen and smiled sincerely, "Yes! I'm protecting them because I've realized they might all be my children."
Chen Jin grew up with Lu Guozhong and was raised by him. Over the years, Lu Guozhong's bodyguards have changed, but Chen Jin has never changed.
It can be said that this was Lu Guozhong's most trusted confidant, and of course he knew some things.
Hearing Lu Guozhong's words, he was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time. "This...really? Back then, you and Comrade Meng..."
Lu Guozhong waved his hand, indicating he didn't care.
"There might be some misunderstanding. She's too smart and too independent. She's the only daughter of the Meng family, and she's so career-oriented. My father is so old-fashioned. She probably doesn't want to give up her career. Or maybe she knows I'm being targeted and is afraid of getting into trouble."
"Now, I no longer care whether she lied to me or took advantage of me. In the end, I didn't have the heart to blame her for anything. She gave me two children, and I was just too happy!"
Chen Jin was also overjoyed, "That's wonderful, but... I do think these two children do look somewhat like you, but can you really be sure they are..."
Lu Guozhong smiled and said, "It should be. Their birth dates basically match. Besides, maybe it's because of blood ties. I feel a sense of closeness when I see these two children. My intuition tells me that it should be right."
"There will be plenty of opportunities to investigate this matter later. Right now, the most important thing is to protect their safety."
Chen Jin immediately accepted the order, "Don't worry, I will definitely arrange for people to protect the safety of the two young masters with my life."
Lu Guozhong was silent for a moment before speaking, "Go and select people first, and bring them back so I can personally confirm the candidates. Yanyan wants to go abroad, and Yunji wants to stay and live here, so we need to arrange suitable people for them."
"Of course, the most crucial thing is my side. With these two children around, our plans need to be changed, and we need to clean them up as soon as possible."
Chen Jin nodded solemnly, "I understand, I'll go and make the arrangements right away."
After Chen Jin left, Lu Guozhong remained seated behind his desk. Only one desk lamp was on in the room, and the area in front of the desk was brightly lit, leaving him entirely in the shadows.
He didn't care before.
The person he loves is no longer by his side. His younger brother has started a family and his children are all successful. He has no children, no ties, and plenty of time to waste on those people.
Even if he gets rid of this one, countless others will still come rushing towards him. It's better to keep this one under his nose so he can control it!
