Chapter 154 What conditions did you propose?
Jiang Ning couldn't remember the last time she had seen Lu Junyan at the hospital.
Given her current relationship with Lu Junyan, she felt it wouldn't be appropriate for her to take the initiative to send him a WeChat message to ask what he had been busy with lately.
Once, she couldn't help but ask Lu Lifeng, who said that Lu Junyan was busy with a very important project at the company and couldn't spare the time.
Lu Junyan is actually always very busy.
The Lu Group is vast, spanning various industries. In the emerging industries, Lu Yexiong is nominally the CEO and Lu Junyan is the general manager, but in reality, Lu Junyan himself is the one in power.
Therefore, all the big and small matters fell on Lu Junyan's shoulders, which put a lot of pressure on him both in terms of time and mentally.
Jiang Ning had known this before, which is why she managed her household so well, leaving Lu Junyan with no worries.
However, no matter how busy Lu Junyan was, he always managed to find time to visit his grandfather in the hospital.
This suggests that the project Lu Junyan has been busy with recently must be extremely important.
Jiang Ning didn't see Lu Junyan at the hospital today, but she unexpectedly saw Mo Yan.
Mo Yan came with Yuan Pei.
This wasn't the first time Yuan Pei had come to the hospital, so Jiang Ning wasn't surprised.
Since Yuan Pei is Lu Junyan's friend, it is perfectly reasonable for him to visit Lu Junyan's grandfather.
But Mo Yan is different.
In Jiang Ning's mind, Mo Yan was Lu Junyan's mortal enemy.
Actually, it was a complete coincidence that Mo Yan and Yuan Pei entered the ward together.
The two met in the corridor.
Yuan Pei was Lu Junyan's follower in high school, and Mo Yan looked down on him.
Mo Yan has been at odds with Lu Junyan since high school and also suffers from bipolar disorder. Yuan Pei also dislikes Mo Yan.
However, now that they are both adults and leaders of their own companies, they no longer express their likes and dislikes as openly as they did in their student days.
"What brings Mr. Mo here?"
Yuan Pei spoke first, and Mo Yan adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, replying with two words in a serious tone:
"North wind."
Yuan Pei pouted: "Your thought process is still so peculiar."
"Today's weather forecast predicts a northerly wind of level 3 to 4."
As he spoke, Mo Yan pushed open the door to the ward.
Yuan Pei felt that Mo Yan's action of directly pushing the door open was impolite, so he knocked on the door twice more.
Jiang Ning heard the door open and just then saw the two of them walk in one after the other.
Lu Lifeng is, after all, a very influential figure in the business world, so Mo Yan wouldn't come empty-handed. However, after handing over the gift to Jiang Ning, he casually produced a bright red rose.
"Without stamens."
Mo Yan smiled gently, his refined demeanor revealing a hint of cynicism.
Yuan Pei watched from the side and found it all incredibly greasy.
Jiang Ning accepted the flowers, but he was also somewhat amused and exasperated.
"Thank you. Actually... you can also send me something other than flowers."
For example? What do you like?
"apple."
Yuan Pei chimed in from the side, handing Jiang Ning a large, red apple.
Jiang Ning doesn't have any particular fondness for fruit. It's just that last time she was hospitalized, there were apples in her room, and Yuan Pei peeled them for her. She ate all of them, so Yuan Pei thought she really liked apples.
Surrounded by Mo Yan and Yuan Pei, Jiang Ning felt awkward.
She wasn't the one who needed to be visited because she was sick, but Mo Yan and Yuan Pei gave her flowers and fruit respectively.
Jiang Ning subconsciously turned his head and glanced at Lu Lifeng, who was lying on the hospital bed.
A kind smile appeared on Lu Lifeng's face.
"My granddaughter-in-law is very popular!"
Yuan Pei was taken aback.
He almost forgot that Jiang Ning and Lu Junyan weren't divorced yet!
"Soon she will no longer be your granddaughter-in-law."
Mo Yan had barely finished speaking when Jiang Ning yelled at him, and Yuan Pei's expression changed instantly.
Mo Yan adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, glanced at Jiang Ning, and then at Yuan Pei.
"What's wrong? Am I not telling the truth?"
Jiang Ning opened his mouth, but was speechless.
Mo Yan was telling the truth.
But no matter what, it shouldn't have been said in front of Lu Lifeng, an elder.
Jiang Ning blamed him, but Mo Yan shrugged indifferently.
"Don't blame Mo Yan, he wasn't wrong. If you have to blame someone, blame Junyan for not being lucky enough."
Seeing the anger on Lu Lifeng's face, Jiang Ning was afraid that Lu Lifeng would be further agitated.
"By the way, Grandpa, where's Brother Lu? I haven't seen him come these past few days."
"Your brother Lu is working with the Mo family on a new project!"
Mo Yan's words greatly surprised Yuan Pei.
"How could that be... Brother Lu and you? They'd fight."
"A fight has already broken out."
Mo Yan squinted and deliberately glanced in Jiang Ning's direction.
Jiang Ning knew that Mo Yan was referring to the incident where Lu Junyan was drugged.
"Can't you say something nice in front of his grandfather?"
Yuan Pei couldn't help but retort to Mo Yan.
In front of Lu Lifeng, Mo Yan would either mention that Lu Junyan was about to divorce Jiang Ning, or that Lu Junyan was fighting.
Yuan Pei thought that Mo Yan had really low emotional intelligence.
"I'm talking about good news!" Mo Yan's nonchalant smile revealed no sincerity whatsoever.
“If it weren’t for the fight last time, Lu Junyan wouldn’t have given the land in Jiangbei to our Mo family.”
"What?!" Yuan Pei exclaimed in surprise. "You got that piece of land in Jiangbei? Didn't Brother Lu say it was for your wife..."
At this point, Yuan Pei quickly covered his mouth.
Mentioning Chu Qingxue here is like bringing up a sore spot.
His emotional intelligence is not as low as Mo Yan's.
"Lu Junyan insisted on repaying a favor to me, but he didn't agree to the conditions I proposed, so in the end he gave up that piece of land in Jiangbei."
What conditions did you propose?
Yuan Pei asked curiously.
Mo Yan pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses and looked at Jiang Ning.
Yuan Pei followed Mo Yan's gaze and looked at Jiang Ning.
Feeling bewildered by the simultaneous gaze of the two people, Jiang Ning was taken aback.
The ward suddenly fell silent.
Jiang Ning wasn't particularly interested in this topic at first, but being stared at like that, she couldn't help but become curious.
So, are the conditions Mo Yan proposed related to her?
Why didn't Lu Junyan agree?
"Hey Mo Yan, are you mute?"
Yuan Pei waited and waited, but Mo Yan's reply never came.
“That piece of land in Jiangbei is a lucrative piece of land, but the Mo family has also given a return gift... Lu Junyan has always wanted to get involved in the project that was previously agreed upon with CelestiMed, and this time he has finally gotten his wish.”
“CelestiMed…”
Jiang Ning had heard of this company.
It is a newly emerging company in the field of medical technology.
After listening to Mo Yan's words, Yuan Pei suddenly understood.
"I see. No wonder you said Brother Lu was developing a new project with your Mo Corporation. I remember... it's about medical artificial intelligence?"
"right."
Mo Yan nodded.
"So the project isn't going well? Otherwise, how could Brother Lu, who is so filial, not come to visit Grandpa for several days in a row!"
This time, Mo Yan simply took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes and temples, and then put his glasses back on.
"It's not going too smoothly. Now we're counting on the new employees CelestiMed promised to start next week."
