At this moment, in Lu Fan's office at the Jiang Group.
"Xiao Yi, you're back. Sit down and have something to eat with us."
Lu Fan and Jiang Manyue, who were having a meal, saw the person walk in, and Jiang Manyue greeted him warmly.
"Cousin, you're such a big boss now, how come you're still eating so few dishes! It's one thing for you to eat by yourself, but your wife has to eat this kind of thing with you too."
Lu Yi walked over and saw the food on the table. None of it contained meat. He was somewhat speechless as he said to Lu Fan.
"What do you know? Eating too much meat and fish is bad for your health! For your own health, you should eat more of these things. Besides, I don't eat this every single meal!"
Seeing his cousin's disdainful look, Lu Fan retorted somewhat unhappily.
"Alright, let's eat."
Jiang Manyue smiled and handed the chopsticks to Lu Fan and Lu Yi.
"It's only because my sister-in-law handed me the chopsticks that I didn't do it. If it were anyone else, I wouldn't have given them the time."
Lu Yi chuckled as he took the chopsticks from Jiang Manyue's hand, glanced at Lu Fan, and said with a smile.
"Hey you, if you're not going to eat, put down your chopsticks!"
Lu Fan understood the implication in Lu Yi's words: if he were to speak up, Lu Yi wouldn't give him face.
"Alright, alright, how's Lu Yi doing with things?"
Seeing that the two were bickering without ever stopping, Jiang Manyue interrupted them and looked at Lu Yi to ask.
Lu Fan and Lu Yi are cousins who have been at odds since childhood. Lu Yi has been studying abroad, and recently Lu Fan is short of manpower. Knowing that Lu Yi is studying finance, he feels he should ask Lu Yi to come back and help him.
Lu Yi originally didn't want to come back, but Lu Fan said he could do whatever he wanted, and the funds were more than enough to fulfill Lu Yi's dreams. Upon hearing this, Lu Yi returned to China and went straight to the Jiang Group.
Unexpectedly, I had only just arrived at the Jiang Group, and before I could even have a sip of wine, I was arrested and forced to do chores.
“I can do the work of two people, and the people have already been taken care of.”
Lu Yimeng stuffed a mouthful of food into his mouth, which was now completely full, and stammered his reply to Jiang Manyue.
"Don't you dislike eating green vegetables?"
Seeing Lu Yi wolfing down his food, Lu Fan, remembering Lu Yi's earlier statement that he wouldn't eat, asked him, somewhat puzzled.
"You're so naive. Back in China, you have a wife who can eat whatever she wants! You know I'm abroad, eating the same few dishes every day. I feel like throwing up just looking at steak."
As Lu Yi stuffed food into his mouth, he spoke to Lu Fan and Jiang Manyue.
"Tch, that one."
"What's wrong? I only ate a few more bites of your food, is it really necessary to make such a fuss?"
Hearing what Jiang Manyue wanted to say, Lu Yi asked her unhappily.
“My cousin has suffered a lot abroad, let him eat more.”
Lu Fan tugged at Jiang Manyue and said to her with a smile.
"Hey, that's more like it."
After listening to Lu Fan's words, Lu Yi nodded in satisfaction. He hadn't expected Lu Fan to remain silent this time, which felt a little strange, but the dish was so delicious that he couldn't think about it anymore.
Jiang Manyue looked at Lu Fan with some confusion, wondering why he was doing this. Lu Fan simply gave Jiang Manyue a look.
Seeing that look in Lu Yi's eyes, Jiang Manyue looked at him with some sympathy. The real show was yet to come.
"Brother, I'm full. I haven't had such delicious food in a long time."
Five or six minutes later, Lu Yi finally finished his meal.
He leaned back lazily on the sofa and said to Lu Fan and Jiang Manyue with a satisfied look on his face.
"Okay, it's good that you're full."
Looking at Lu Yi's already bulging belly, Lu Fan said to him with satisfaction.
"Nothing else happened today, right?"
Jiang Manyue looked at Lu Yi and asked him.
"No, there's just a guy named Big Bear who I find quite interesting."
Lu Yi thought about it and wasn't surprised at all; everything was going very smoothly. But thinking of that stubborn bear, a smile appeared on his lips as he spoke to Lu Fan and Jiang Manyue.
“I’ve had my eye on that Xiong guy for a long time. I even tried to get him to work under me, offering him very generous terms. But out of brotherhood, he’s unwilling to leave Shanggong Group.”
Hearing Lu Yi say this, Lu Fan proudly recounted what had happened before.
"If he agrees to come, he won't be himself!"
"It seems you two think highly of him?"
Jiang Manyue was somewhat puzzled. What was so good about this big bear? What abilities did it have that made Lu Fan and Lu Yi say such things? She asked the two of them.
"He single-handedly blocked the attack of more than a dozen people, but he refused to hand over Han Tai. Actually, I had already rescued him, but I just wanted to see what he wanted. I didn't expect him to be such a courageous person. He is also the first outsider to know my name."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Manyue sensed something was amiss and, being the first person to recognize the name, quickly asked Lu Yi.
Did you tell him your name?
Lu Fan, who was sitting to the side, hadn't heard it at first. But when he saw Jiang Manyue become serious, he recalled what Lu Yi had said earlier and realized that he had indeed mentioned that sentence. He also put away his smile and looked at Lu Yi, wanting to hear her answer.
"Yes! I told him my name."
Looking at Jiang Manyue and Lu Fan's expressions, not knowing what was wrong with him, he shrugged and answered them.
"Do you know you've gotten yourself into trouble?"
After hearing this, Lu Fan covered his head and said to Lu Yi.
