He Wu felt helpless after being rejected by Lin Yu.
He felt incredibly regretful, but since it had already happened, there was nothing he could do.
They had no choice but to leave with Xiao Zhankun in a dejected manner.
He originally wanted to take the opportunity of inviting Lin Yu to dinner to take their relationship a step further, but that bastard Xiao Zhankun ruined it all!
It's foreseeable that Xiao Zhankun is in deep trouble now; he'll likely suffer inhuman torture at the hands of He Wu after he returns.
"Honey, this overpass is too dangerous. Should we get off here quickly?" Lin Yu suggested.
Lu Xueqing nodded and got back into the car.
Shortly after, the BMW exited the overpass.
However, Lu Xueqing lost her appetite at this moment and called Liu Xiyan to cancel the dinner invitation.
Then I went back to the company.
The couple sat in the office alone.
Lu Xueqing kept staring at Lin Yu, seemingly lost in thought, which made Lin Yu feel somewhat uneasy.
"I couldn't understand it before, but now I finally understand!" After a long while, Lu Xueqing said this.
Lin Yu was slightly taken aback. "What?"
Lu Xueqing asked coldly, "If I'm not mistaken, Gong Li apologized to me before and even offered to be the spokesperson for Chuansheng Company, all because of you, right?"
Lin Yu's face immediately turned awkward. "Wife, what are you saying? I don't understand!"
Lu Xueqing chuckled lightly, "Still pretending? A dignified young marshal, with such acting skills, I'm embarrassed for you!"
"Lin Yu, don't treat me like a fool. I've just arrived in Xidu, I have no status, no background. Why would a big star like Gong Li kneel down and apologize to me?"
"When I saw the relationship between He Wu and you today, I immediately understood. Do you dare to say that this has nothing to do with you?" Lu Xueqing sneered.
She's a little simple-minded, but she's not stupid. But this guy insists on acting like a fool.
Lin Yu looked helpless. He knew he couldn't keep up the act any longer, so he said, "Wife, I didn't mean to. I just couldn't help it! How could I not be angry when that woman humiliated you like that at the auction? I..."
Lu Xueqing waved her hand, took a deep breath, and said, "So, you admit that it was you who helped me behind the scenes again. I was able to gain a foothold in Chuansheng Company and secure such good endorsements and projects, all thanks to your help!"
"Lin Yu, are you trying to prove to me? Prove that I, Lu Xueqing, am completely helpless without you, and that I can only achieve anything in this life by relying on you, is that it?" Lu Xueqing's tone was very turbulent, and her chest heaved.
She had been holding onto her ambition, wanting to make something of herself, but just as things were starting to look up, she was dealt another cruel blow.
This made her feel very frustrated.
Lin Yu hurriedly explained, "Honey, I'm doing this for your own good..."
"Shut up!"
Lu Xueqing raised her hand, not wanting to hear him continue.
Lin Yu immediately closed his mouth.
I felt uneasy.
Oh no, this woman is clearly angry again...
Lu Xueqing tried to calm herself down and said in a calm tone, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have gotten angry with you! But I really didn't want to! I came to Xidu to get rid of your so-called 'being good to me'! Because I believe that I can, and definitely can, reach the heights I want through my own efforts!"
“But what you did proves once again that I’m a piece of trash! Lin Yu, do you know? I’m already so insecure. I’ve made the greatest effort and determination to get rid of your influence. I’ve worked so hard for so long, but you still ruined it…” Lu Xueqing’s tears fell slowly as she bit her lips tightly, her expression a mixture of resentment, anger, and defiance.
She couldn't get angry at Lin Yu; all she could do was hate herself for being so powerless. She also didn't want Lin Yu to think she was the kind of woman who was pretentious and affected.
But she really is trying her best to do her job well!
But why did it have to be this way...?
"Honey, don't be angry. I just happened to be at the auction that day. I didn't mean to..."
"Alright, stop talking!" Lu Xueqing wiped away her tears with the back of her hand.
"Lin Yu, I beg you, please let me go, give me some time, okay? Please stop interfering in my affairs!" Lu Xueqing pleaded.
"I will resign from my job at Chuansheng Company, and I don't want the shares either! I want to start over with this new company. I hope you won't interfere with me anymore. I'm begging you, okay?" Lu Xueqing said in a pleading tone.
Lin Yu looked extremely embarrassed. He really wanted to tell his wife that the 30 million investment in the new company was actually made by him at Zhao Fei's request, since he was the boss after all.
However, he was afraid that if he told his wife about it, she would completely break down.
"Lin Yu, although we are husband and wife, I want my own space, and you have to respect that! Is that okay?"
With tears in her eyes, Lu Xueqing said, "I know you are a high and mighty young marshal, and you can do anything with a single word, but I really don't want to be treated like a useless vase. I am a human being too, and I have my own dignity!"
Lin Yu hurriedly said, "Wife, I didn't disrespect you! Yes, I said some things that were wrong back then, isn't it enough that I apologize? We're husband and wife, there's no need to argue about who's right or wrong..."
"No, some things may not be important to you, but they are very important to me!" Lu Xueqing said stubbornly, "If you really consider me your wife, I'm begging you!"
Lin Yu paused for a moment, then shook his head and sighed, "Alright, I promise you! From now on, I won't interfere in your affairs. Is that alright?"
