Chapter 136 Will You Accompany Me Tonight?
After chatting with her family for a while and calming everyone down, Meng Anran hung up the phone.
She leaned tiredly on Qin Mu's shoulder, her fingertips fiddling with the buttons on his shirt.
The air was silent for a long time, and she suddenly said, "Brother Mu, can you accompany me tonight?"
Qin Mu grabbed her mischievous little hand and said with a smile, "Young lady, you know how to act like a spoiled child? Is there vodka mixed in the orange juice?"
Meng Anran pulled back her hand, hugged his waist, and relaxed in his arms, "I'm so tired, I want a hug."
It was rare to see her acting so coquettishly. Qin Mu curled his lips, hooked her legs and held her on his lap, letting her lean sideways into his arms.
An Xiaoran has indeed been tired recently. Ruiming Group has just entered the game development industry, and she has been keeping a close eye on it. She is so busy that she is dizzy and has not had enough time to rest.
In addition, she flew to Hai City early this morning, and the Meng family made such big news, and all the pressure was on her. It was time for her to have a good sleep and rest her brain.
"Do you want to change into some comfortable clothes before going to bed?" He gently touched An Xiaoran's head, as if coaxing a child.
"Um."
"Then I'll change into pajamas first and go to your room to rest later." Qin Mu put her on the sofa and rubbed her head.
I took my pajamas into the bathroom and changed.
When he came out, Meng Anran was leaning on the armrest of the sofa, pinching her brow bone, and talking on the phone. It seemed that the ban announcement issued by the Lu Group had caused the shareholders of Ruiming Group to become agitated.
The dirty tricks in the business world naturally have a greater impact on those who do business. Meng Zhen and Meng Yushu are just taking a break for a period of time and will be able to go back to work after the storm subsides.
But Meng Rong and Meng Anran, two businessmen, have encountered countless troubles and suffered huge losses in their companies during this period.
Moreover, the foundations of the two companies are not yet stable, and it is very likely that all the efforts made in the past few years will be wasted after this incident.
"Notify the group's directors that there will be a board meeting tomorrow afternoon at 3:00." Meng Anran gave this instruction and hung up the phone. She looked up and saw Qin Mu coming out. She immediately opened her arms to him and said, "Hug."
Qin Mu walked over, bent down and let Meng Anran put her arms around his neck. He held her hips with one hand and picked her up.
He picked up the phone on the table with his other hand and pulled out the room card before leaving the room.
Walking all the way to Meng Anran's room, she was already drowsy, leaning on his shoulder.
I am very tired, and only in Qin Mu's arms can I relax for a moment.
The girl's breathing became gradually even and gentle, and it was obvious that she had fallen asleep. Qin Mu took the room card from her pocket, opened the door and went in without turning on the light in the room.
He bent down and gently placed her on the bed, trying not to wake her.
Then he locked the door, turned on the small light in the entrance hall, found her pajamas in her suitcase, and started to change her into them.
Then she tiptoed to remove the powder on her face, wet the face towel to wipe her face clean, and put on face cream.
After finishing all this, he turned off the lights, lifted the quilt, got into bed, and held the person in his arms.
The girl seemed to wake up for a moment, and consciously snuggled into his arms, finding a comfortable position and settling down.
Qin Mu curled his lips, the drowning tenderness in his eyes was hidden in the darkness. He lowered his head and placed a light kiss on the top of her head.
Good night, baby.
…
It was the same night, but the atmosphere on the other side was not so peaceful and calm.
Lu Heng took a shower, sat on the bed in his bathrobe, and leaned against the headboard to make a phone call. From the other end came Lu Yi's sullen, cold laugh:
"Fuck! What kind of sow gave birth to Lu Zhong? Doesn't he have a brain? He convicted the Meng family based on a piece of scrap paper without even checking. He acts like he cares so much about Bai Yujin. Duan Xi dug such a deep hole, and he jumped in without even looking. Does he think his current life is too carefree?"
Lu Yi was not concerned about the situation of the Meng family, otherwise he would not have bankrupted the Meng family so easily.
What made him angry was that Lu Zhong led the Lu Group into Duan Xi's trap, which not only disrupted the plan but also affected Meng Anran's business.
Brainless idiot!
He had ruined Duan Xi's cocktail party tonight and was having a great time, but Lu Zhong's stupid brain ruined his good mood!
Lu Heng's expression remained unchanged as he spoke calmly, "He was intent on pretending to be a loving couple in front of outsiders to cover up the fact that he and Bai Yujin were each finding lovers. He didn't consider the consequences."
Lu Zhong really had no talent for business. He was a playboy with countless women before his marriage. Originally, the Lu Group should have been handed over to his eldest brother, but he was content to be a second-generation rich man and had no contact with business affairs at all.
Unexpectedly, his eldest brother died in an accident, and he was forced to inherit the family business. His father was afraid that he would ruin the Lu family's century-old foundation, so he worked hard for him until he was seventy-six years old.
When Lu Zhong was 42 years old, his father passed away and he officially took over the Lu Group. At the age of 45, he handed the group over to his 23-year-old eldest son Lu Heng.
After all, he was just a passing moment in the process.
He cares about the reputation of the Lu family and values interests because he has shares in the Lu Group. Only by making the Lu Group stand at the top and making more money can he spend lavishly outside.
Rather than really considering the Lu family's generations-old foundation to be very important.
Lu Yi lazily slumped on the sofa and lit a cigarette. "What should we say now? Declare Lu's bankruptcy directly?"
"Isn't this exactly what Duan Xi wants?"
"Damn..." Lu Yi cursed in a low voice, his tone full of dissatisfaction with Lu Heng's idea, "You should know how much impact this incident will have on Rui Ming, right? If you drag it out any longer, An Ran will hate you to death."
Meng Anran knew that the Lu Group had become a hollow shell, and also knew that it was Duan Xi who set up the scheme.
Lu Heng could have solved Rui Ming's crisis by simply declaring Lu's company bankrupt, but he waited until Rui Ming suffered serious economic losses before taking action. Who else should we hate but him?
Lu Heng didn't say anything. He was waiting for Meng Anran to come to him for help. As long as Meng Anran spoke, he could overturn the entire plan, even if it meant fulfilling Duan Xi's wishes.
Of course, he knew he couldn't wait.
After a long silence, Lu Heng thought about his plan and said calmly, "Duan Jingyao has returned to Hai City, and Duan Xi won't let him leave again. Send someone to find Bai Yujin. The police should be able to quickly verify that the letter was forged. I'll handle the Lu Group's problems."
Lu Yi blew out smoke rings irritably, and his tone became more serious: "I ask you what to do about Rui Ming!"
"You don't know her yet?"
Lu Yi was stunned. Thinking of Meng Anran's temper, he suddenly felt that he was worrying unnecessarily.
Someone like her would never bow down and surrender even if she went bankrupt.
"Okay, I'll let you know if there's any news about White Turmeric."
He cut the line immediately.
Lu Heng opened WeChat and found the chat box with Meng Anran. The last message was still from five years ago.
After hesitating for a long time, he didn't send anything and pressed the screen.
