When Li Jia returned to the secretary's office, she looked grim. She bit her lower lip so hard that she didn't even notice the other girls' gazes in the secretary's office.

Her mind was full of thoughts that Lu Haozhi really had a girlfriend!

How could Lu Haozhi suddenly have a girlfriend!

His personality was so cold, and there were almost no women around him who were too close to him. How could he suddenly have a girlfriend with whom he was so close that she even went out to buy bubble bath salts herself!

This was impossible!

She didn't believe it!

The other girls in the secretary's office were getting ready to get off work. Seeing Li Jia like this, they were a little slower in packing up.

They winked at each other, full of schadenfreude.

Oh, it looks like they have been disappointed!

Just now, when she heard the boss's call, she looked like she was going to fly to the top of the tree, and her tail was raised. As a result, she went there and was sent back so quickly. Judging from her expression, her plan was probably unsuccessful.

I told you long ago, don't dream of things that don't belong to you.

Who are you showing off your "future mistress" face to every day?

The girls in the secretarial office have all been bullied by Li Jia, especially when everyone just came in and was a newcomer. Not only were

they ordered around by Li Jia, but they also had a lot of credit taken away from them. But Li Jia was particularly good at putting on a show. She was obviously torturing them, but she pretended to be doing good for them.

Others thought that Li Jia was really working hard to train new employees, especially those admirers of Li Jia in the company, who praised her beauty and kindness every day, which made the girls upset.

Normally, their secretarial office is managed by the secretary-general, but the secretary-general is a favorite of the boss and is busy every day, so he doesn't care about them at all.

Li Jia took advantage of her seniority to suppress them everywhere and set traps for them, fearing that they would surpass her.

Bah, she thought everyone was as shameless as her.

One of the girls who had been exploited the most by Li Jia was seldom seeing Li Jia like this, so she smiled sweetly and touched her heart: "Sister Li, what did the boss ask you to do? He actually asked you to come back so soon, didn't he invite you to dinner?"

The tenderness on Li Jia's body disappeared, and she glared at her fiercely: "This has nothing to do with you, why are you meddling in other people's business."

"Oh, I was thinking that the boss would not invite you to dinner, Sister Li, it's time to get off work, the boss must be rushing back to accompany his girlfriend."

After the girl finished speaking, she stuck out her tongue and left happily.

Li Jia was left with a gloomy face. As long as she thought of Lu Haozhi buying bubble bath salts for another woman, accompanying another woman to dinner, and taking good care of another woman, these imagined scenes made her overwhelmed with jealousy.

Having coveted Lu Haozhi for so long, she was confident that she could still see through him.

Once that cold and distant man would do such a thing for another woman, it clearly showed that this woman was important to him!

Li Jia packed up her things with a sullen face and left the company.

...

While waiting for the elevator, she happened to meet a male colleague from the promotion department. This man was one of Li Jia's suitors and had been pursuing her since she entered the company.

As a result, for several years, Li Jia had always been lukewarm towards him.

The man smiled and greeted Li Jia. He thought he would not get any response today, but he was surprised to see Li Jia turn around and smile at him.

This sweet smile made the man feel flattered, and coupled with Li Jia's exquisite dress, it was inevitable that the man had some distracted expectations.

"Xiao Jiajia?" The man called her nickname jokingly.

Li Jia frowned slightly, suppressed her dislike for the nickname, and asked him softly: "Do you still have the 'that' you mentioned once before?"

"That?" The man was stunned for a moment, and couldn't remember what she was referring to.

Li Jia covered her mouth, and leaned closer to him with a gentle look: "It's the thing you said that would bring people good luck in love."

The man suddenly realized and said in a rough manner: "You don't have to be so troublesome to me, I have always liked you, and I will give you all my love!"

Li Jia: "..."

Li Jia gritted her teeth in anger. She was about to talk about it in detail when a wave of people coming home from work rushed in.

The crowd made her swallow the words she had not spoken. She smiled and said, "Are you free tonight? I'll treat you to dinner."

The man paused, then smiled and agreed, "Of course I'm free when a beautiful woman invites me."

When Lu Haozhi decides to do something, he always acts quickly.

But within a few days, there were major changes in the personnel of the Lu Group.

Many senior employees were found to have done something dishonest and were fired. At first, this scope was only in the middle and lower levels, but with the resignation of a senior executive, the entire group was in turmoil.

Those who had something to hide were in a panic all day, fearing that they would be the next one. Those who were confused had no idea how the world could change overnight.

Only some savvy people who have worked in the group for decades watched the competition between the father and son in silence, and lamented that Lu Haozhi is no longer the same as before.

This kid, not to mention keeping silent, once he gets serious, he doesn't give anyone any chance to fight back or make excuses.

Lu Haozhi's methods are very tough. Those who can be found to belong to Lu Runhua basically have some black spots. Relying on their seniority, they look down on Lu Haozhi, a young substitute. In view of the fact that Lu Runhua is not in the group, they usually do a lot of sneaky things.

It is a common practice for them to enrich themselves. What is even more disgusting is that some senior officials actually hook up with other companies and leak business secrets privately, which has already violated the law!

Lu Haozhi threw the evidence he found in front of these people and gave them two choices: either resign on their own initiative or wait for the court summons.

The executives who were still holding on were counting on Lu Runhua to speak for them.

As a result, after waiting for a few days, Lu Runhua remained silent for some unknown reason. These people had no choice but to give up and left the Lu Group in disgrace.

The changes in the Lu Group naturally could not escape the eyes of the media. The reporters in charge of the financial sector rushed to Lu like chicken blood, and they wanted to use the same momentum as the entertainment industry to dig out the inside story of Lu's turmoil.

Unfortunately, they could not interview the senior executives of Lu, and the grassroots staff knew nothing about it.

When these reporters were at a loss, Lu Runhua's current wife, Sun Wei, who could be considered the mistress of the Lu family, jumped out.

Sun Wei shamelessly accused Lu Haozhi of being ruthless and ruthless, and even betrayed his own father in order to fight for power and

profit. She scolded Lu Haozhi for being shameless, and fired many old people who had made great contributions in the company in order to eliminate dissidents. His heart is despicable. The media swarmed towards Sun Wei like sharks smelling blood, and they wanted her to say more.

Sun Wei did not disappoint the public. After scolding Lu Haozhi, she began to cry bitterly.

She cried that Lu Haozhi had no brotherly love, suppressed her son Tianyang, and did not let Tianyang enter the Lu Group for training. She

also choked up and said that Lu Haozhi never respected her at all and did not regard her as his own mother at all. She thought she was good to Lu Haozhi, but she had been married to the Lu family for so many years, and Lu Haozhi had never called her "Mom".

In order to let her continue, the media showed their approval and sighed, but they laughed in their hearts.

The power was taken away from her in the beginning, which was somewhat sympathetic, but the subsequent selling was too low-class.

Lu Haozhi has no brotherhood? Suppressing Lu Tianyang?

As far as they know, Lu Haozhi is still good to Lu Tianyang. At least he has never squeezed Lu Tianyang, and he takes good care of him financially. Lu Tianyang has never lacked money since he was a child.

Does brotherhood have to be close and friendly?

She and Lu Tianyang don't have the same mother, so it's good enough to do this.

As for not letting Lu Tianyang gain experience in the company, have you forgotten that Lu Tianyang is only 19 years old this year, a young man who just got into college, what experience can he have?

The most ridiculous thing is that Sun Wei cried and complained that Lu Haozhi didn't treat her as his own mother and didn't call her mom.

The media were speechless about this issue.

The problem of stepmothers is the problem of the century. There are children of stepmothers and ex-wives who live happily together, but they are too few.

Even in ordinary families, those who remarry generally won't force their children so much. It's a kind of affection for them to call you dad and mom, and it's normal for them to call you uncle and aunt if they don't want to. It's

okay as long as you can get by in general. It's a problem if you insist on making other people's children regard you as their own mother.

The media are all shrewd people. They laughed at Sun Wei in their hearts, but continued to praise her outwardly. When they saw that she had nothing new to say and was selling herself badly over and over again, they smiled perfunctorily and went back to write articles.

But after a while, the headlines were all about Lu Group and Lu Haozhi.

[Lu Group has undergone a major reshuffle, the company is in turmoil, and people are in panic.]

[There is no father and son in the rich family, why is the Lu family in turmoil?]

[When will the palace fighting in the rich family end? Count the grievances of the rich family over the years.]

[The inside story of the Lu family is revealed! Father and son turned against each other, brothers became enemies, and stepmother complained that Lu Haozhi had no humanity or family affection! 】

When Gong Xu saw these reports, he wanted to tear those reporters to pieces. In order to attract attention and hype, they had lost their bottom line!

These reports that were taken out of context portrayed Lu Haozhi as a cold-blooded man who had no affection for power and attacked his own father!

Even if Gong Xu was not very clear about the specific inside story, he knew that his brother was definitely not that kind of person. To be able to do such a thing, it can only be said that Lu Runhua made his brother feel that there was no need to endure it any longer!

But China emphasizes filial piety. Once such news breaks out, no matter what the truth is, most people will stand on the moral high ground to accuse the son.

In just a short while, there were already thousands of comments scolding Lu Haozhi on the Internet.

Gong Xu couldn't help it, he rushed directly to Lu Haozhi's apartment.

Afraid that his brother would not open the door for him, he took out the key he had secretly made and inserted it into the keyhole.

When he secretly opened the door, he was still thinking about how to comfort his brother. No matter what others said, he would stand on Lu Haozhi's side.

As a result, when the door opened, there was no one in the living room.

Gong Xu thought that Lu Haozhi was not there, and just as he was about to rush to the company, he heard a slight noise coming from the bathroom.

He thought worriedly, wouldn't his brother hide in the bathroom and cry?

He tiptoed over, and before he could look, he heard a familiar voice.

One was Lu Haozhi, and the other sounded like... Tang Luoxi?

"How is it? Are you comfortable?"

"Uh-huh, great." "Then

speak louder."

"Yeah, okay..."

Gong Xu was stunned. What was going on with this kind of obscene conversation!

He gritted his teeth and leaned his head out, then was dumbfounded. There was

no erotic scene as expected. His brother leaned against the wall outside the bathroom with a calm expression, his eyes were calm and gentle, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and he looked like he was enjoying relaxation.

And from the bathroom came the sound of water and a very familiar humming tune.

Gong Xu: "..."

Gong Xu stared at Lu Haozhi in shock, and asked stupidly: "Are you listening to music?"

Lu Haozhi narrowed his eyes, "How did you get in?"

Gong Xu laughed and changed the subject: "Your way of listening to music is really unique."

He knew that some people like to sing while taking a bath, but he didn't expect his brother to go all out just to listen to music. Tang Luoxi was taking a bath inside, while he was listening to music outside. This was simply...

He now really believed that his brother was sticking to Luoxi to listen to music because he had a headache.

Lu Haozhi glanced at him coldly: "If it weren't for someone's rule, I wouldn't have to bother so much."

Gong Xu smiled awkwardly.

Luoxi's singing voice is so good, so of course she needs to protect it well. Gong Xu listed some rules for Luoxi to protect her voice, such as quitting smoking and drinking, eating less spicy food, not singing too long a day, etc.

As a mermaid, Luoxi naturally doesn't have to worry about this, but facing the trouble of her sponsor asking her to sing a song from time to time, she directly brought up Gong Xu's rule and told Lu Haozhi to give up the idea.

Lu Haozhi can only listen to the song of Nai Miao at night every day. If he wants to listen to music at other times, he often needs to rack his brains to find a way.

For example, now, using bubble bath salt to make Luo Xi happy, she is bathing and singing inside, and he is listening outside, which is also a kind of subtle harmony.

Gong Xu was speechless about this.

He wanted to complain about his brother, a beautiful woman is bathing inside, but you are just listening to songs, are you still a man!

And the one inside, at least have a little defense against men, how can you bathe in front of men, not afraid of being XXOO!

Luo Xi seemed to sense someone coming outside, and the singing stopped. She asked vaguely, "What's wrong?"

Lu Haozhi motioned Gong Xu to go to the living room and replied, "Nothing."

Luo Xi didn't care at first, and all her attention was on Lu Haozhi's super luxurious bathtub. The bathtub was big enough for her to flip over in it, and the various massage and wave functions made the country bumpkin mermaid who had never experienced this high-tech very happy.

This luxurious bathtub has surpassed Boss Feng's swimming pool and has become her latest favorite.

In addition, with the addition of bubble bath salts, the whole bathtub is full of dreamy bubbles, and she and the little golden dragon are having a lot of fun in it.

Luo Xi thought Lu Haozhi was a nice guy, and he bought her a set of not only bubble bath salts, but also various bathing methods.

Little Jinlong finally enjoyed the flower petal bath that he had been dreaming about, which made Little Jinlong praise his male god endlessly.

In the living room, Gong Xu wanted to ask about those reports, but he didn't know how to start.

Lu Haozhi seemed to have guessed his intention, and said lightly, "He doesn't need to worry about these."

Gong Xu stared at his brother in dismay: "Do you think I'm useless and don't tell me anything because I can't help at all?"

Lu Haozhi was slightly stunned, obviously not expecting Gong Xu to say that.

Gong Xu didn't know where he got the courage from, and suddenly poured out all the frustration and grievances in his heart.

He didn't want to be a burden to Lu Haozhi, and he didn't need Lu Haozhi's over-protection!

He is also a man, he has grown up, he can help!

Lu Haozhi listened expressionlessly.

Gong Xu looked at his brother's calm face, and became more and more uneasy as he spoke. In the end, he didn't know whether he couldn't bear the pressure or the grievances in his heart were released. His emotions were too agitated, and he turned into a leopard with a bang.

Lu Haozhi: "..."

Leopard Gong Xu: "...Woo ow."

The leopard lay on the floor, covering his head with his paws, feeling a little embarrassed. He is so old, but he can still transform because of his out-of-control emotions.

It held its clothes in its mouth and turned around to leave.

Lu Haozhi calmly stepped on its tail. The leopard let out a "wow" and bared its teeth, accusing its elder brother of not having brotherly love and not being gentle enough to keep it!

The black milk cat, who was originally lying on the sofa playing by himself, was startled by Gong Xu's transformation. It widened its almond-shaped eyes, not quite understanding where this big guy came from.

Lu Haozhi looked troubled, looked down at the leopard, and said hesitantly: "Are you being coquettish?"

The leopard glared at him angrily.

Fuck your sister's coquettishness, I'm not weaned, don't change the subject!

Lu Haozhi sighed faintly: "I'm afraid that if I say too much, your Oedipus complex will not be able to bear it."

Gong Xu widened his eyes, and he looked extremely funny.

What are you loving! ?

He has an Oedipus complex! ?

Lu Haozhi calmly recounted Gong Xu's attachment to Lu Runhua over the years, and even did a lot of stupid things just to please Lu Runhua.

It was because of seeing Gong Xu like that that Lu Haozhi chose to isolate Gong Xu, at least Gong Xu didn't have to do it himself.

The more Huabao listened, the more embarrassed and angry he became.

He, he was a little stupid when he was a child, and was fooled around by Lu Runhua, leaving behind so many dark histories. The most terrifying thing is that he can't even remember some of his dark histories, but his brother still remembers them clearly!

Lu Haozhi said enough, and then slowly asked: "Are you sure now... do you really want to listen?"

Gong Xu was stunned, because his brother was rarely serious.

This serious attitude made him nervous all of a sudden. Could it be that Lu Runhua's situation was more serious than he thought?

In Gong Xu's impression, Lu Runhua was a cold and distant father.

Just like a traditional old-fashioned noble, even when dealing with children, he would not be as close as ordinary families. But apart from this, Lu Runhua was nice to him in other aspects.

Gong Xu used to think that the discord between Lu Haozhi and Lu Runhua was just a discord in their personalities and frictions in life, until now...

Gong Xu's heart was beating like a drum, and Huabao walked around the living room anxiously, but finally gritted his teeth and nodded.

He wanted to know the truth and didn't want to be a child who was protected in the dark anymore.

Lu Haozhi was silent for a moment, and picked out some aspects about Gong Xu to talk about.

For example: The reason why Gong Xu was sent back to the Gong family was not because the Gong family had no heir and adopted him back. Instead, he was sent away because he turned into a leopard cub at the age of three and Lu Runhua didn't like it.

Another example: Lu Runhua is sick, a patient with severe emotional deficiency, and is used to simulating a normal person. The Lu Runhua that Gong Xu saw was a slightly modified version of Lu Runhua.

Another example: There was no room for redemption between him and Lu Runhua, and the father-son relationship did not exist from the beginning.

Gong Xu felt that the whole world had collapsed.

He thought that things might not be simple, but he didn't expect it to be so serious.

The leopard shook his head and suddenly roared a few times.

He suddenly remembered that if Lu Runhua didn't care about him at all, why did he suddenly take him back to the Lu family to stay for a while when he was sixteen? Could it be because of Lu Haozhi...

The leopard wanted to ask anxiously, but when he opened his mouth, he could only make a low roar of a leopard. He angrily pulled out the mobile phone from his clothes and typed on it -

[Lu Runhua threatened you with me? ]

Lu Haozhi glanced at the phone lazily and didn't answer.

The leopard didn't understand anything when he saw this, and it couldn't help but roared.

Leopards have many kinds of calls. Because of the different structures of the vocal cords, the roar of a leopard when angry is very similar to that of a jaguar.

Although the sound of Gong Xu's roar was not earth-shaking, it was not small either.

Lu Haozhi frowned, walked forward quickly, picked up his confused brother and threw him to the balcony, holding the window curtain to block him.

Huabao hugged his pile of clothes and fell on the balcony stupidly. The night wind made his fur shivering. He was confused and didn't understand why his brother threw him out.

He was about to knock on the door with his claws when he heard Luo Xi's confused voice coming from inside.

"Lu Haozhi, was it Xiaoguai who was crying just now?"

Gong Xu felt guilty. He had gotten into trouble, how could he explain this matter? As a result, his brother said "hmm" without changing his expression while he was dumbfounded.

Gong Xu felt that his brother's skill of lying with his eyes open was absolutely perfect. But it was so outrageous, how could Luo Xi believe it?

Huabao held his clothes and listened silently to Luo Xi's shocked questioning.

"How could Xiaoguai cry so loudly?"

Lu Haozhi: "The cats fighting outside last night also cried loudly."

Luo Xi was half-believing and half-doubting. The miserable cat cry in the middle of the night last night was indeed loud, it could be called a devil's sound, but it seemed to be different from the one just now.

She lowered her head and poked the cat, muttering, "Why do I feel that the voice just now is a little low, is Xiaoguai about to enter the voice change period?"

The black cat squatting on the sofa obediently didn't know that it had a pot on its back. Seeing Luo Xi poking it, it stretched out its claws at Luo Xi and meowed.

Lu Haozhi didn't respond to her words, and casually changed the subject: "Mingyue Tower has launched new dishes, do you want to eat?"

After spending some time together, Lu Haozhi almost fully understood Luo Xi's preferences.

In addition to soaking in water, what impressed her most was food.

Sure enough, when it came to the new dishes of Mingyue Tower, Luo Xi immediately ignored her previous doubts. She left a sentence and ran back to the room happily.

"I'm going to change my clothes, wait for me."

...

The leopard on the balcony was full of admiration for Lu Haozhi. When he saw Lu Haozhi open the curtains, he immediately raised his head to show that he hid very well and didn't let Luo Xi see a single hair.

Lu Haozhi slowly pointed to the door, indicating that he would choose a suitable time to get out.

The leopard nodded quickly, indicating that he would turn back into a fucking fool after they left.

Gong Xu was originally quite angry, but after being interrupted repeatedly, the anger in his heart subsided a lot. He silently typed a few words on his mobile phone and asked his brother if he needed help.

The media outside were making a big fuss, and the dirty water was splashed so hard, we couldn't just ignore it.

Lu Haozhi shook his head slowly, "Just watch."

Gong Xu knew that this meant that Lu Haozhi had already made the arrangements and there was no room for him to intervene.

Leopard Gong Xu made a few "whines" and inevitably felt a little frustrated.
