“Don’t worry, Mr. Shen, we won’t.”
Several people spoke, and although their tone was certain, the uncertainty in their eyes betrayed them.
But it doesn't matter, as long as the company is in her hands.
As for them, sooner or later they will be our own people.
"That's all for today. The meeting will start tomorrow morning at nine o'clock sharp."
After the words fell, Chen Mengchu took Lu Jingxiao's hand and left the meeting room.
The moment Shen Mengchu left, bursts of noisy sounds came from the conference room.
"What's going on? Why is Chen Mengchu with Lu Jingxiao?"
"That's right, isn't Lu Jingxiao not interested in women?"
…………
I always thought it was just a scandal, but now it seems that it is not the case.
"What about Mr. Shen?"
"What Mr. Shen? Shen Zhenghua has been kicked out. How can he come back up?"
That's Lu Jingxiao, how is that possible?
It seems that they have to be more careful in the future, otherwise... the consequences will be much more serious than Shen Zhenghua's.

Underground garage.
"Okay, Mr. Lu, the show is over, it's time to let go." Chen Mengchu pushed Lu Jingxiao away and kept some distance from him, as if what had just happened had never happened.
Watching Chen Mengchu change so quickly.
She looked so gentle and pitiful just now, but in the blink of an eye she turned into the cold and unapproachable Miss Shen.
He also said that others changed quickly, but in his opinion, she was the best actor.
My face didn't turn red, my heart didn't beat fast, and there was no sense of incongruity.
"It's a pity that Miss Shen's acting skills didn't make it into the entertainment industry." Lu Jingxiao's words had hidden meaning. Although he said that her acting skills were good, he also expressed her "heartlessness in turning her back on others."
I thought Lu Jingxiao's words would make Shen Mengchu lose her temper, but unexpectedly, she just said lightly, "Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Lu. I think so too."
Lu Jingxiao was surprised by what Chen Mengchu said.
I had originally planned to tell Chen Mengchu that I was in a bad mood, but what about now?
"Miss Chen, are you planning to use you and then throw you away?" Lu Jingxiao's stern face darkened, his sword-like brows slightly frowned, his cold eyes like the night tightened, and his tone was full of displeasure and grievance.
How could this woman be so cruel? She just walked away without even saying thank you.
He asked me to come, so I rushed here without stopping, but what about others?
Lu Jingxiao was not angry, he just felt very wronged.
"This is what Mr. Lu owes me."
Chen Mengchu didn't want to explain anything and just said what was in his heart.
"I owe you?"
Lu Jingxiao didn't quite understand.
"Didn't you receive the text message? Why are you acting stupid?"
Chen Mengchu rolled his eyes at Lu Jingxiao, feeling very unhappy that he was pretending to be ignorant despite knowing the truth.
“But you…”
"Should I say thank you?" Chen Mengchu said the words that Lu Jingxiao did not say.
"Mr. Lu, you're overthinking it. I haven't even settled the score with you for kissing me yesterday? And you want me to say thank you."
impossible.
It’s already good that I didn’t ask for the reward for kissing her secretly. Do you still want a thank you?
You wish.
"Let's put things one way or another." Lu Jingxiao emphasized this sentence.
"Mr. Lu won't deny it, right?" Chen Mengchu asked Lu Jingxiao, his tone full of displeasure and hostility.
If he dared to deny it, she would just... beat him to death.
"Admit it. I will definitely admit what I did."
He certainly won't default on his debt, but there's another way.
“Didn’t Miss Shen say that I kissed you secretly?”
"Isn't it?" Chen Mengchu asked Lu Jingxiao.
"Yes." Lu Jingxiao nodded without denying it.
"Miss Chen can sneak a kiss back, I don't mind." Lu Jingxiao proposed a solution, so that everything would be settled.
"What did you say? Say it again?" Chen Mengchu felt that she might have heard it wrong, otherwise why would Lu Jingxiao say such a thing?
“Miss Shen can return the favor of me kissing you secretly.”
I asked him to repeat it, and he actually repeated it.
"Lu Jingxiao, do you think I'm a fool or do you think I don't understand?"
"I kissed you? I'm the one who suffered the loss. Do you really think I'm stupid?"
Chen Mengchu said it out loud, thinking that Lu Jingxiao was treating her like a fool.
She kissed him? What's the difference between that and him kissing her secretly? Isn't she the one who suffers?
He was the one who took advantage, but she was the one who suffered the loss.
He is quite good at calculating.
"Let's just consider today's 'taking advantage' of Mr. Lu as even." She treated it as a bite from a dog.
The dog bit her, she couldn't bite back.
"If Mr. Lu is alright, please take me back."
Without waiting for Lu Jingxiao's consent, Chen Mengchu took out the key from his hand, pressed the unlock button and got into the car.
"You didn't drive?" Lu Jingxiao was a little unconvinced.
"I don't have a car!" Chen Mengchu spread her hands, indicating that it wasn't that she didn't want to drive, but that she had no car to drive.
"Mr. Lu, don't you want to take me? If not, then I'll get off."
As he said that, Chen Mengchu was about to open the car door and get out.
Looking at her, Lu Jingxiao took a step forward and pushed back the car door that was about to open.
"I'll take you back."
After he finished speaking, Lu Jingxiao walked around to the other side and got into the car.
This was Lu Jingxiao's first time working as a driver.
It was just Chen Meng's first job, and he was willing to do it.
Knowing that Chen Mengchu was going back to the Lu family, I didn't ask for her address.
While Lu Jingxiao was waiting for the traffic light, he looked at the person in the passenger seat.
The person in the passenger seat had fallen asleep. She leaned back in the chair, her eyes closed lightly, her long and thick eyelashes cast a shadow on her eyelids, like a falling butterfly, beautiful and quiet.
Looking at her sleeping, Lu Jingxiao couldn't bear to wake her up.
So he didn't send her back to the villa immediately, but took her for several laps on the street.
It was not until Chen Mengchu woke up that Lu Jingxiao changed the route back.
"Why haven't they arrived yet?" Chen Mengchu asked Lu Jingxiao in confusion.
How is this car driving? It’s been almost two hours and it hasn’t arrived yet.
Lu Jingxiao did not tell the truth, but instead found a reason so that others would believe him.
"The traffic jam is serious."
Afraid that Shen Mengchu wouldn't wake up if he said just one word, he added a few more words.
I would believe it without adding it, and I will believe it even less after adding it.
"Mr. Lu, please don't lie anymore."
His lie was not very clever and anyone could tell at a glance.
But at this moment, Chen Mengchu also understood something.
Looking at Lu Jing who was driving seriously, Chen Mengchu opened her lips and uttered a few words, "Thank you."
Two words, just two words, made the curve at the corner of Lu Jingxiao's mouth deeper and deeper.
——————
Fifteen minutes later.
The car stopped in front of the Lu family's door.
Lu Jingxiao got out of the car first and opened the door for Chen Mengchu.
Chen Mengchu nodded to express his gratitude.
"You go in first, I have something else to do and will be back later."
Lu Jingxiao told Chen Mengchu why he didn't go in.
"Okay." Chen Mengchu still uttered a word in response to Lu Jingxiao's words.
