Assistant Zhou, who was working overtime at the company late at night, was on his phone when it kept getting messages coming in. About a hundred messages popped up and almost crashed his phone.
I glanced at it and almost dropped my phone. A large hand was tightly holding a small, slender, snow-white hand, and the rings on their middle fingers were particularly dazzling.
I rubbed my eyes again, still in shock, when the phone rang.
It was his boss who finally contacted him. "Boss! You finally contacted me. I'm still working overtime at the company."
Just as he was celebrating the end of his long hours, Lu Jingyan's icy voice rang out from the other end of the line.
"It's fine at the company. Have the PR team pick one out in ten minutes and post it on the group's official website."
Zhou Yuan: You're choosing one out of over a hundred? And it's just two hands clasped together, what's the difference?
Assistant Zhou, who dared not speak out, had his meticulously styled short hair now appearing messy and unkempt due to long hours of overtime work.
However, with a serious and responsible work attitude, I didn't dare to waste a single minute and contacted the public relations department as soon as possible.
Five minutes later, a prominent figure from the Lu Group posted: "Together, through dusk and the four seasons."
Attached is a photo of them holding hands.
Immediately, all of Lu's subsidiaries, including overseas groups, forwarded the message.
At the same time, major media outlets featured the word "breaking" on their front pages: Lu's official announcement, Lu Jingyan, Lu's mysterious girlfriend...
Not only did the major entertainment media outlets erupt in a frenzy, but the Lu family's official announcement also caused a great stir in high society circles.
"I always said that only the Ye family is worthy of the Lu Group, and a marriage between the two families was only a matter of time."
"Jiajia is beautiful and kind-hearted. After returning to China after completing her studies, she helped manage the Ye Group."
"Yes, they are a perfect couple. The wedding banquet of the Lu and Ye families will definitely be a national sensation."
In a high-end coffee shop in Kyoto, several elegant and glamorous middle-aged women, adorned with jewels from head to toe, showered Ye's mother with compliments.
Originally worried about her daughter's situation, Ye's mother was surprised to hear the news of Lu's official announcement today. Despite her initial concerns, she raised her chin slightly and showed her smugness under the flattery of several wealthy women.
After her daughter returned from studying abroad, she began learning to take over the Ye family business. In the future, she will fully take over the Ye Group. In the entire capital and even China, only her daughter is worthy of Lu Jingyan. Once her daughter becomes Mrs. Lu, her position in high society will be unshakeable.
Over the years, everyone in the industry has known about Jiajia's feelings for Lu Jingyan, so the Lu family's sudden concern naturally leads everyone to believe that it is a powerful alliance between the Lu and Ye families.
"Mrs. Ye, please take good care of us in the future."
Overjoyed by her boasting, Mrs. Ye smiled, her thick red lips curving into a smile, seemingly even more pleased with herself. She tapped the table with her fingers from time to time, saying, "Jiajia is still young, and we want to nurture her further to inherit the Ye family business."
"It's all official now, why should a young lady like you be so stressed? From now on, Jiajia will be the one to call the shots in the entire capital."
In contrast to Ye's mother's smug expression, Ye Jiajia, her face full of resentment, was smashing things in her own villa.
The decorations in the living room were all smashed on the floor, and the servants standing nearby all had their heads down, not daring to breathe loudly, for fear of angering the young lady.
"That bitch Shi Wan! She only seduce rich men, and now she's climbed into Brother Jing Yan's bed!"
"She clings to men because of her flesh and blood, just like Ji Meng, a slutty vixen. I don't know how many men she's slept with, but Brother Jingyan still wants her!"
"You slut! You vixen!" After saying that, his jealous eyes grew even deeper, and he suddenly pushed the half-body sculpture in his hand to the ground.
Just then, Lin Yue, who had just stepped into the Ye family's gate, was nearly cut on the leg by a fragment of the sculpture, which frightened her so much that she turned pale.
Seeing Ye Jiajia throwing a tantrum in the living room, he sent the maid away and then pulled her to sit down.
"Yueyue, Brother Jingyan would rather have that woman of dubious origin than choose me. I like her so much, and for so many years my family has been raising me to be the Lu family's daughter-in-law. But now that woman has taken her away!" Ye Jiajia couldn't help but cry when she saw her best friend.
"Even if he doesn't accept the affections of any rich heiresses all these years, no woman will ever appear by his side! But this time is different! It must be Shi Wan. That day at the Ji family, that little bitch Shi Wan kept seducing Brother Jing Yan!" She finished speaking with her eyes filled with terrifying hatred.
"And then there's Ji Meng, she looks like a vixen, she ran away from abroad back then, and now she's back to seduce President Zhao."
Lin Yue gently held Ye Jiajia's hand, and after sensing the other's hatred for Shi Wan, a strange smile appeared on her lips.
The moment Ye Jiajia looked up, her expression changed to one of worry for the other person.
Lin Yue comforted Ye Jiajia for a few words, then said ambiguously, "Jiajia, I heard that Shi Wan came from the capital a couple of years ago."
"Although it didn't cause a big stir in the capital at the time, I heard that she was once kept by Feng Yunzhou in a small villa and interfered in someone else's family."
Ye Jiajia looked up in shock and exclaimed, "Feng Yunzhou? The heir of the Feng family, isn't that your brother-in-law?"
Lin Yue shrugged helplessly. "My cousin was forced by her family to go abroad for several years. Although the two haven't seen each other for years, their engagement hasn't been dissolved."
"So how did President Feng get entangled with Shi Wan?"
"My brother-in-law met Shi Wan when he went abroad to visit my cousin. Because she looked somewhat like my cousin, he chatted with her for a while. Unexpectedly, she got attached to him and followed him back to the capital."
"Don't let her gentle and weak appearance fool you, most men fall for that, she's practically a vixen. President Lu probably doesn't even know about Shi Wan's dirty past."
After speaking, Lin Yue glanced at Ye Jiajia with feigned helplessness, trying her best to hide the terrifying coldness in her eyes.
Gently comforting Ye Jiajia, "Jiajia, President Lu will see through Shi Wan's true colors sooner or later. Back then, my brother-in-law saw Shi Wan and, because of a misunderstanding about his relationship with his long-lost sister, pushed her downstairs, causing her sister to bleed profusely and almost killing both of them."
At this moment, Ye Jiajia's emotions gradually calmed down because of Lin Yue's words, and a cold smile appeared on her lips, "This kind of woman has ruined others, and she still has the nerve to come to Kyoto, wanting to climb higher and reach the sky, dream on!"
The two then had a long private conversation in the hall. By the time Lin Yue left the Ye residence, it was already evening. As she walked out, she took out her phone and sent a text message.
