Second floor.
Lu Tingen was eavesdropping at the door of the guest room when he was caught by the little guy who had just woken up. The little guy yawned and looked up at the man with his big curious eyes.
"Daddy, what are you doing?"
"Ahem... nothing." Lu Tingen's face flashed with embarrassment, then he stood up straight, cleared his throat, and instructed the maid behind the little guy, "Go wake up the young mistress."
"Yes, Master."
As the maid finished her words, a sound like a pig being slaughtered was heard in the room.
"Oh! It's 8:30, I'm going to be late!"
The man's expression softened slightly after hearing the voice. A touch of warmth appeared on his stern face. He squatted down, picked up the little guy and walked downstairs. "Are you hungry?"
"Yeah." Lu Yibo rubbed his eyes, "Shouldn't we wait for Mommy to come downstairs together?"
The man glanced at the time, a smile flashing in his eyes, "No need, let's eat first."
That dwarf probably isn't in the mood for breakfast.
Sure enough, as soon as the father and son arrived at the living room on the first floor, they saw a woman running down the stairs in a hurry. She didn't even have time to say hello. The servants behind her were so anxious that they shouted worriedly, "Young Madam, please run slower!"
The little guy was stunned. He looked in the direction the woman left and asked in a baby voice, "Daddy, what happened to Mommy?"
The man smiled and shook his head helplessly, "It's okay, let's go have breakfast."

Half an hour later, Ren Xueer finally appeared at the door of the planning department, and her appearance attracted the attention of her colleagues.
"Hey, Ren Xueer, are you late too?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, look at those dark circles, why aren't you wearing makeup today?"
"Did you have a fight with your sponsor and get dumped? Hahaha..."
Amidst their sarcasm and ridicule, Ren Xueer walked to her workstation and never glanced at them. She calmly turned on her computer and went back to work.
"Who is Ren Xueer?" At this time, a shrill female voice came from the door, and a gorgeously dressed woman was seen looking inside from outside the door.
Ren Xueer raised her eyes and looked towards the door, "Me!"
"Your director asked you to go to her office."
As soon as the woman finished speaking, the colleagues in the planning department became excited again, and each of them had an expression as if they were watching a show.
"Oh, now it's time to watch something interesting!"
"The director's private conversation shows that this is almost certain."
"What's going on?"
"You didn't know? Regarding that marriage fraud incident, it's said she accepted the betrothal gift and then ran away from the marriage. This has brought shame to our company."
"Marriage fraud? True or false, this is not something you can say casually."
"The man has already found the company, how can it be fake?"
“…”
At the door of the director's office, Ren Xueer knocked gently.
"Knock, knock, knock."
"Come in!"
After receiving the agreement, Ren Xueer politely walked into the office and said respectfully, "Director, are you looking for me?"
"Well, sit down!" The capable female director with short hair stirred the coffee in her hand, with a look of scrutiny in her eyes.
"Didn't you get enough rest?"
"Ah?" Ren Xue'er was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "I did have some insomnia last night."
Planning Director: “Well, you didn’t have breakfast?”
"..." Ren Xue'er was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to answer, so she simply lied, "Thank you for your concern, Director. I have eaten."
The director smiled, his eyes revealing an unfathomable emotion. "Here, this is for you."
"For me?" Ren Xueer looked at the breakfast on the desk with disbelief on her face, then thanked him and refused.
"Thank you for your kindness, Director. I have already had breakfast."
Oh my god! What’s wrong with this woman?
Isn't calling her over here to criticize her for being late?
But deliver breakfast?
What the hell is this? It's so scary.
The planning director looked the woman in front of him up and down, his eyes full of inquiry. He said calmly, "Don't thank me. Whether you eat or not is none of my business, but you must take the breakfast from the table!"
"I..." Ren Xueer wanted to say something else, but was ordered to leave. "Take your breakfast and get back to work."
"yes."

At this moment, in the office of the president of Lu Group, Lin Yang looked at Lu Tingen expectantly, eagerly begging for praise.
"Reporting to Mr. Lu, I have sent someone to deliver Madam's breakfast as you instructed. Please praise me."
The man paused with his pen in his hand, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, and his dark gaze fell on Lin Yang, "What did you just say?"
Lin Yang straightened his chest, full of confidence, and said, "Reporting to President Lu, the mission is completed, please give me a commendation."
Lu Tingen's eyes flashed, and he began to play dumb, "What mission?"
"Bring breakfast to the lady!" Lin Yang repeated patiently, but when he saw the smug smile on the man's face, he realized that he had been fooled.
"Mr. Lu, is it difficult to praise me?"
Lu Tingen raised his eyebrows. "Praise? Isn't that part of your job?"
"..." Lin Yang frowned and nodded, "That's right."
Lu Tingen smiled and started a new topic, "Okay, how did yesterday's surveillance footage go?"
"By the way, Mr. Lu, I was just about to tell you about this." Lin Yang handed the prepared documents to the man while speaking.
"These five girls are still students, currently interns in our design department. They've been here for two and a half years, and they're almost always late and leave early. Yesterday, they were discussing Madam's affairs in the tea room, and the old lady caught them."
There was no expression on the man's stern face. He was just calmly flipping through the information of several people, his eyes full of disgust and his tone was terrifyingly cold.
"You've been late and leaving early every day for two and a half years. Whose responsibility is this? You know what to do, right?"
"Mr. Lu, please calm down. I'll do it right away." Lin Yang said as he turned and walked away. He walked to the door and then stepped back again, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. "Mr. Lu, there's something I'm not sure if I should say it to you..."
"What's up?"
Lin Yang truthfully informed them, "The old lady punished the five of them to clean all the toilets on the fifth floor of the office building for a month."
When Lu Tingen heard this, he was so angry that he laughed.
She is worthy of being her mother, who is a gentleman who will not take revenge.
The man tried hard to suppress his laughter, his brows and eyes cold. "Okay, I get it. Let's first dampen their spirits and play the long game to catch the big fish. I'll give you a month to dig out the people behind them!"
He wanted to see who dared to make trouble under his nose.
"clear."
"Also, follow the clues and find the person who started spreading the rumor!" The man's face darkened, a stern look flashing in his eyes. "Remember, don't let the news leak out."
"Yes, Mr. Lu."
"Go!"
Lin Yang left the office and the man let out a long sigh.
Little guy, have you ever complained when you were wronged?
