Chapter Eight: Dog Thing



After dinner, Lu Zheng finally regained some strength and no longer had to think about those disgusting faces.

He found a landlord who rents out houses through a friend.

The monthly rent is only a few hundred yuan. The house is not bad, a little remote, but there are no other problems.

Although Lu Zheng is the director of the research department of Jiang Group, he has basically never received a salary because of his relationship with Jiang Li'er.

In fact, just by holding the position of technical director of the research department, earning a million yuan a year is already a very simple thing.

If you join a super-large company and become the technical director of the research department, you can earn more than a million in income, plus research and development funding, and your annual income can exceed ten million.

With Lu Zheng's exceptional talent in the new energy field, securing such a high-level executive position is a piece of cake.

However, back then, for Jiang Li'er's sake, he chose to stay in the already small Jiang Group.

It was he who gradually transformed the Jiang Group into a large corporation.

It was not the Jiang Group that created the job for him.

Unexpectedly, Lu Zheng can only afford to live in a rented room that costs a few hundred yuan.

Ha... How ridiculous!

But it doesn't matter, he will take back what he has lost.

He will repay the humiliation he suffered tenfold.

Catching his breath, Lu Zheng regained his composure, tidied the room briefly, and then opened WeChat.

He then discovered that Chang Ping and Zhu Wan'er had added him to a small group chat.

There are several other people from the research department in the group.

The group showered Lu Zheng with concern and care, which warmed his heart.

However, apart from Chang Ping and Zhu Wan'er, the others have not yet submitted their resignations.

Lu Zheng could understand this. Chang Ping, Zhu Wan'er, and Lu Zheng were all geniuses who were popular wherever they went, but the others were just ordinary people who needed to support their families.

Knock knock knock!

Lu Zheng's heart had just warmed a little when a series of knocks on the door brought him back to his senses.

"who?"

Lu Zheng's expression turned cold, because he knew that the person knocking on the door was probably related to Jiang Li'er again.

However, this person should not be Jiang Lier. If it is, then she is too shameless.

Just as I was thinking this, I heard a refined, slow voice from outside: "Lu Zheng, are you there?"

Forehead?

Lu Zheng's lips twitched. Shameless!

Although the person outside wasn't Jiang Li'er, it was Jiang Li'er's father, Jiang Tai.

From the moment Lu Zheng started talking to Jiang Li'er, he never gave Lu Zheng a second glance, and even asked him several times how much money he would take to leave his daughter.

Lu Zheng never dreamed that he and his wife would be sent to find him.

However, a cold smile appeared on Lu Zheng's lips, but this smile was filled with deep hatred and disappeared in an instant.

He wanted to see what else this family had to say.

Creak!

Lu Zheng opened the door.

Jiang Tai and Shen Cuiling stood outside the door. Jiang Tai was carrying two bottles of Moutai, while Shen Cuiling was carrying several lunch boxes.

As soon as he opened the door, Lu Zheng was greeted by a rich aroma.

The food inside is exquisitely presented, suggesting it was ordered from a high-end restaurant.

"Lu Zheng, have you eaten yet? If not, my wife and I just ordered some food, and it's all good stuff! Look! There's also some good wine!"

Lu Zheng chuckled: "Uncle? Aunt? I'm truly flattered by your self-address."

Jiang Tai's eyelids twitched violently.

But he quickly regained his composure: "Haven't it always been like this?"

Lu Zheng didn't want to waste time with their words, so he asked directly, "What brings you here?"

“Lu Zheng, what do you think… let your aunt and uncle go in first, then we can talk?” Shen Cuiling said with a smile.

“I’ll say it right here. You can take the food and drink back with you. I’ve already eaten and have no interest in eating this meal.”

In the past, Jiang Tai and Shen Cuiling would have been furious upon hearing this.

But today, the two of them stiffened up for a moment, and Jiang Tai's face even started to darken.

Shen Cuiling quickly tugged at Jiang Tai, then said with a smile, "Lu Zheng, look, your uncle and aunt have come to you in such a humble manner. You are, after all, the senior, it's not right for you to do this."

"Besides, you have a villa but you don't live in this tiny house of about ten square meters. Look at it, the bathroom and bedroom are right next to each other. How comfortable are you to sleep in? If you go with your uncle and aunt, you'll live in a mansion, drive a luxury car, and have plenty of money to spend. Isn't that great?"

Lu Zheng didn't stand on ceremony and curled his lip: "This place is much better, it's clean to live in. That villa is too filthy, the smell makes me want to vomit. Besides, I have hands and feet, I don't like to be a kept man."

"President Jiang, didn't you say before that being a kept man is as disgusting as shit? Now I'm granting your wish. I'm not going to be a kept man anymore. Without me, Lu Zheng, your Jiang Group is nothing but a pile of shit."

Since we've already gone this far, what's the point of being polite anymore?

Jiang Tai no longer hid his thoughts and sneered, "Heh, so arrogant! Without the Jiang family, what are you? Lu Zheng, I'm not saying this to be mean, but people should know their place. You should know that your success and prestige are all thanks to my daughter."

“Exactly.” Shen Cuiling also gave a wry smile.

If we're talking about a couple who look alike, even their crooked mouths and ugly appearances are exactly the same.

"Lu Zheng, Lu Zheng, let me tell you the truth. Letting you go back is a favor. We've provided you with a job, so you should be grateful."

Lu Zheng almost laughed out of anger: "Working for free? I should thank you?"

"How can you say that isn't true? We gave you a job and opportunities to practice, which is how you mastered so many skills. You should be grateful and repay kindness, otherwise, how can you be considered a human being?"

Lu Zheng looked at these shameless people with impatience and waved his hand: "Get out! Doesn't your daughter like Zhou Mobei? Go find him."

"Heh, Mo Bei? Of course we'd look for Mo Bei." Jiang Tai sneered. "Mo Bei is smart and capable, unlike you, who's just a sycophant. You can't compare to Mo Bei. Lu Zheng, to be honest, my wife and I came to you for two reasons: first, the marriage is already arranged and it wouldn't be good to back out; second, because you're still somewhat useful."

"Even without you, we'll be fine."

"But considering we've known each other, I'll give you a chance. Go back to work at the company now, and I'll have Li'er pay you a salary of ten thousand yuan a month. Is that enough? That salary is already higher than eighty percent of people's!"

"Yes, Lu Zheng, one should be content. Besides, if you think it's Li'er's fault, don't you ask yourself if you're not at fault either?"

I threw up!

Lu Zheng was truly speechless at how twisted this family was; what kind of scoundrels could utter such shameless words.
