"Yes, having a child is not a trivial matter. We need to deal with both sides of the family properly first," said Du Moyou.
"Yeah." Han Chen responded.
"The wine is gone," Zong Zheng shook the white porcelain bottle, "I'll go get some."
Lu Zhishu stood up and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."
The two men left the box side by side.
Zong Zheng went downstairs.
Lu Zhishu turned around and went to the bathroom.
Although he could drink a lot, he drank a little too much and felt a little dizzy at the moment.
Zong Zheng, this old hand, is very good at persuading people to drink.
Both of them are businessmen. There are so many social events at the dinner table, but only they can drink.
Even so, Lu Zhishu believed that he could not drink as much as Zong Zheng.
He took the opportunity to go to the bathroom to wash his face and wake up.
However, just a few steps out of the bathroom, I met two people who I hadn't seen for a long time, but who looked extremely familiar.
It turned out to be Lu Zhinan.
Lu Zhishu never thought that he would meet his own brother in Dongjiang during the "Fight for the Central Plains".
Now that Jinghang is under his management, he should be very busy in the imperial capital.
Lu Zhishu was wearing a tight black suit with a long men's windbreaker on the outside. His hairstyle was meticulous and very fashionable. He also wore a black mask.
Like Lu Zhishu, he was tall and slender, but the difference was that Lu Zhinan looked like a boy band idol, while Lu Zhishu...
The shirt is paired with a thin sweater, a fake two-piece suit, one white and one gray. The lower body is composed of ordinary jeans and skateboard shoes, which is the outfit of an ordinary family man.
This outfit was bought by Shen Pan when she was shopping and it was on sale.
Lu Zhishu never had any requirements for clothing, or rather, he had no time to think about what to wear, and he didn't care at all.
Shen Pan was willing to buy clothes for him and match them for him, but he thought it was a hassle, so he didn't care whether they looked good or not.
Although Lu Zhinan was wearing a mask, as a brother who grew up together, Lu Zhishu could recognize him at a glance.
Of course, Lu Zhinan also recognized Lu Zhishu at first sight.
He took off his black leather gloves, raised his hand and handed them to the assistant behind him, then took off his mask and walked forward.
"Brother, long time no see."
"It's been a long time since we last met," Lu Zhishu looked at him, frowned, and asked, "What are you doing in Dongjiang?"
"Meeting a friend," Lu Zhinan's eyes were narrow and there was a faint, cold smile in the corners of his eyes.
Lu Zhishu stood opposite him and could even vaguely see his eyeliner, the thick black and thick eyelashes blending into one.
Lu Zhinan has always been very concerned about his image since he was a child. In Lu Zhishu's opinion, only women who love beauty would do something like wearing eyeliner, but Lu Zhinan doesn't care about the opinions of people around him and does what he wants to do.
"What about you? It seems... your life in Dongjiang is not as good as you said when you went home last time." He looked at Lu Zhishu with his dark eyes.
Lu Zhishu smiled faintly, "I'm living an average life, of course I can't compare to you. But... at least my money is clean."
A hint of coldness flashed across Lu Zhinan's eyes, and then turned into a deeper smile. "Brother, what you said is not nice. Is the money I earn dirty? Jinghang is a legitimate company, not a small workshop run by some random people out there. If you can't manage such a large enterprise and resign, it doesn't mean that I can't manage it. I don't know if you paid attention to the financial statements released by Jinghang at the end of the year. The debt ratio has been greatly reduced. I have dealt with all the mess you left when you were in office."
Lu Zhishu smiled but said nothing.
Lu Zhishu was no layman when it came to how debt was reduced, and he knew the ins and outs of it very well.
"Then keep working hard," Lu Zhishu passed by him and patted his shoulder, "I hope you can turn Jinghang around."
“Yes, this year.”
Lu Zhishu sneered silently, and Lu Zhinan's words were just a joke in his ears.
"Let's go." He said goodbye and left.
Without waiting for Lu Zhinan to respond.
"Lu Zhishu——"
Not far away, Shen Pan suddenly appeared and saw the two of them. She called out to Lu Zhishu.
Lu Zhishu walked over and asked, "Why are you here?"
"You haven't been back for such a long time. I saw that you drank a little too much. I was worried that something might happen to you, so I came out to check on you."
"Let's go back," Lu Zhishu put his arm around Chen Pan's shoulders and pushed her back.
"Sister-in-law——" Lu Zhinan shouted from afar.
Chen Pan turned around, looked at him, and then looked at Lu Zhishu.
"I've seen you in the imperial capital before. What? You can't remember?" Lu Zhinan asked.
"Of course I remember," Chen Pan looked at Lu Zhishu worriedly.
She couldn't be sure why Lu Zhinan appeared here at this moment, nor could she determine what Lu Zhishu and Lu Zhinan had talked about just now.
But she had seen Lu Zhinan before.
In order to get her marriage certificate with Lu Zhishu, she specially went back to Lu Zhishu's home in the imperial capital with Lu Zhishu.
Of course, I also met Lu Zhinan.
At the request of Lu Zhishu's parents, the family sat together and had dinner.
At that time, Chen Pan was worried. It was the first time she went to her boyfriend's house. How could she not be nervous?
Although Lu Zhishu's parents were not very warm-hearted people, they were from a prominent family and knew all the necessary hospitality skills.
I thought that a family like Lu Zhishu's should have a lot of rules. Even if they were polite to her when she entered the door, they would definitely say a few words to show their power later, or even call her in for a private talk, saying that her family background was not worthy of Lu Zhishu.
However, she was overthinking it; none of this happened.
After she arrived at the Lu family, Lu Zhishu's mother entertained her in the living room and then chatted with her briefly. She also asked about her family and work, but it was limited to one question and one answer. Lu Zhishu's mother did not make any comments on her family background.
The housekeeper at home has prepared the meal and comes to inform you.
Lu Zhishu's mother called Lu Zhishu's father and Lu Zhinan.
The two returned soon.
Then the family had dinner together.
It looks very harmonious.
It even gave Chen Pan the illusion that what Lu Zhishu had told her before about his experiences at home were false.
How could such a harmonious family be as Lu Zhishu described?
Later, Shen Pan discovered that something was wrong and it started with Lu Zhinan.
She was so nervous that she didn't dare make a sound while eating.
It was Lu Zhinan who kept finding topics to chat with her.
He looks very friendly and enthusiastic, calling her "sister-in-law" all the time, which makes people very happy.
But Shen Pan felt very uncomfortable.
Lu Zhishu's parents called her "Miss Chen".
The unfamiliarity in the address allowed her to guess some of the attitudes of Lu Zhishu's parents.
Although they were polite, they did not approve of her deep down.
Whether it was out of face or because of Lu Zhishu, they could still maintain the minimum respect.
