After hanging up the phone, Zhang Miao immediately gave instructions according to Lin Yu's wishes.
Soon, the Lu family received the news.
"Grandma! Grandma! Something terrible has happened!"
Lu Haitao scrambled back to the villa.
The old lady had just taken a sip of water and almost choked.
"Cough cough cough! Can't you talk things out properly? Are you trying to choke me to death?" The old lady took a while to recover, and then shook her head.
Although Lu Haitao is the eldest grandson of the Lu family, he is far inferior to his granddaughter Lu Xueqing in handling matters.
Lu Haitao nodded obsequiously and immediately fell silent.
The old lady said impatiently, "What is it? Speak quickly, I want to take a nap!"
"Grandma, Xiongfeng just announced that they are terminating their cooperation with the Lu family!"
"What?" Upon hearing this, the old lady's vision blurred, and she stamped her cane, asking, "What exactly happened? Did Xiongfeng say why he wanted to terminate the cooperation?"
Lu Haitao said with a bitter face, "They said that the reason they chose to cooperate with us in the first place was because they valued Lu Xueqing's abilities! If we want to continue cooperating, we must make Lu Xueqing the person in charge!"
The old lady took a deep breath and felt a tightness in her chest.
She just scolded Lu Xueqing back, does she really want her to go and invite her back again?
Where should the head of the family put his pride?
"You useless thing! If you had even half of Xueqing's abilities, you wouldn't have made me lose face like this!" the old lady roared angrily at her son's lack of ambition.
"What are you standing there for? Go and bring Xueqing back right now!"
Lu Haitao's face immediately fell. "Grandma, please don't make me go. I... I just slapped her this morning..."
"You!" The old lady was so angry that she couldn't speak.
"You're just being nosy, aren't you!"
"Hurry up and go apologize to Xueqing. If you don't bring her back, you're not coming back at all!" The old lady swung her cane fiercely.
Lu Haitao scrambled out of the room.
Before long, we arrived at the blind massage parlor.
Lin Yu went to buy groceries, while Lu Xueqing sat on the sofa scrolling through Douyin (TikTok).
"Young Master Lu, what brings you here?" Lu Xueqing couldn't help but purse her lips.
"Well, Grandma wants you to go back to the company! She said you'll continue to be in charge of the Xiongfeng project!" Lu Haitao's expression was somewhat unnatural.
Lu Xueqing frowned: "Grandma really said that?"
"Okay, hurry up and get ready, then head to work this afternoon!" Lu Haitao said, then turned to leave as if nothing had happened.
"Wait a moment!"
Lu Xueqing suddenly called out to Lu Haitao, then revealed a mocking expression: "Didn't you fire me? Why are you making me go back to work now?"
"How would I know? That's just what Grandma said!" Lu Haitao pursed his lips.
Lu Xueqing sneered, "Isn't it because Xiongfeng said they absolutely had to make me the project manager, or they would terminate the cooperation? Grandma had no other choice but to send you to me?"
"How...how did you know?" Lu Haitao's expression immediately turned awkward, as if he felt that the other party had seen through him.
Lu Xueqing smiled and said, "Hey, isn't it a coincidence? I just saw Xiongfeng Company's announcement on Douyin!"
"and you……"
"Hmph! Get out of here, I don't want to see you!"
Lu Xueqing got up and was about to go upstairs.
"Hey, Lu Xueqing, don't go! Are you going to go back or not?!" Lu Haitao suddenly became anxious because his grandmother said that if he couldn't persuade Lu Xueqing to come back, he wouldn't have to go back either.
Lu Xueqing paused, then turned around and said with interest, "You want me to go back? Fine! You, kneel down and beg me!"
Lu Haitao's face immediately turned ugly. "Lu Xueqing, don't go too far! I'm your cousin!"
"My brother won't slap me in the face, and he certainly won't let anyone kick me out of the company!" Lu Xueqing couldn't help but shout.
It's really unbearable to keep this anger inside if I don't let it out.
"And another thing! Just kneeling isn't enough; you also have to slap yourself in the face while calling me 'Grandma'!"
"you!"
"Lu Haitao, when you ask someone for a favor, you need to have the right attitude!" Lu Xueqing said coldly. "You'd better do as I say, or don't even think about letting me go back to the company!"
"you!"
Lu Haitao was furious.
But thinking of the consequences of being punished by her grandmother, she gritted her teeth and knelt down.
Snap!
"Grandma, I was wrong, please go to work!"
Snap!
"Grandma, I was wrong, please go to work!"
Snap!
"Alright, alright! Get up!" Lu Xueqing bit her lip, but finally softened.
"Xueqing, you've calmed down now, right? It's time to go to work, isn't it?" Lu Haitao said helplessly.
"Not yet!" Lu Xueqing sat back down on the sofa and picked up a piece of apple with a toothpick.
She's been thinking a lot these past few days.
Although he was a descendant of the Lu family, he was nothing more than an employee, at the beck and call of the other party.
The Lu family needs her now, that's why they want her to go back. But when they no longer need her, they can just kick her aside!
If you want to gain a foothold, you still need to keep the initiative in your own hands.
"Lu Xueqing, what else do you want?" Lu Haitao gritted his teeth in hatred when he saw Lu Xueqing's shifty eyes, wondering what kind of mischief this girl was up to.
"Ahem!" Lu Xueqing's eyes darted around, she coughed, and said, "How about this, you go back and tell Grandma to give me 30% of the Lu family's shares. If she agrees, I'll go back to work; if she doesn't, then forget it!"
