Chapter 482 Contributing to the Construction of the Motherland
Hearing how Director Huang and the others addressed Meng Ran, Ye Ran was taken aback, suddenly remembering what Meng Ran had said during lunch.
She hadn't really felt it before, but now she suddenly understood Meng Ran's resentment and helplessness.
They all seemed to only remember that Meng Ran's surname was Meng, and stopped paying attention to anything else...
Under Ye Ran's gaze, Meng Ran replied with a gentle smile, "Yes, my name is Meng Ran."
Director Huang and Secretary Luo exclaimed in surprise again, "We never expected to see you in the United States! Isn't your Meng's Industrial Group focused on domestic industrial production?"
"We've sent you out this time to expand into foreign markets, haven't we? Things are developing really fast!"
Meng Ran's smile remained unchanged. "It's not like that. Meng's Industry is a business run by my grandfather and father, and it has nothing to do with me."
I came to the United States for my own career, not for the Meng family.
I don't know what Meng's Industrial's next plan is. If they want to expand here, you'll know before I do.
Director Huang and Secretary Luo suddenly realized what was going on and said, "I see. Young people should indeed strive for success in their careers. No problem!"
Your grandfather and father were both exceptional individuals; you're bound to be just as talented. Like father, like son!
Hearing this, Meng Ran smiled and nodded, then sat down to eat with them.
However, Ye Ran could clearly see that his enthusiasm was not as high as when he arrived.
Ye Ran and Lu Yi exchanged a glance, and Lu Yi gave her a reassuring look. The two of them then quieted down and began to eat.
After dinner, Ye Ran and the others took Meng Ran back to their residence.
Upon arrival, the group got out of the car, and Lu Yi led Meng Ran directly upstairs to find rooms to stay in.
While Meng Ran was packing, Lu Yi casually said, "Don't take it too seriously. Many people are like that. I used to be like that too. Wherever I went, people would call me Young Master Lu."
But not many people know my name. But as you can see, things are different now. Many people here know who I am, but nobody knows who my father or grandfather is.
So, brother, keep up the good work, things won't be like this for long.
Meng Ran shook the blanket. "You don't think I'm sad, do you? How could I? Am I the kind of person who would lose control of my emotions for no reason?"
Don't worry, I know perfectly well why I'm here.
Lu Yi chuckled, "I know that in my heart, but it's not just a formality that I want to show you some concern!"
I already bought this house. We're going back tomorrow, and you can live in it from now on.
"You can drive the car. Here are the keys. Keep them safe. If you need anything, just call us."
Meng Ran took the keys. "Okay, I have to go to the company early tomorrow. I just took over the company and I still have a lot of things to deal with, so I won't see you off."
Lu Yi shrugged indifferently, "It's okay, you can work more overtime. Anyway, my wife will get a share of the money you earn."
Meng Ran glared at him. "You've really learned enough of the capitalist ways here. Hurry up and leave. I'm going to pack up and go to sleep."
Lu Yi responded with a smug chuckle and then went downstairs.
After going downstairs, Ye Ran had already finished washing up and started packing some small personal items.
