Chapter 306 Is it because...she doesn’t deserve it?
Lu Chixu slammed the titanium alloy racing key he was playing with onto the tea table, raised his eyelids and squinted at him: "Are you curious about the smell of shit?"
His Adam's apple rolled with a sneer, and his neatly trimmed nails poked Lu Jianheng's forehead: "You are just too curious, that's why you let Big Brother wipe such a big butt for you."
Lu Jianheng knew he was in the wrong, so he didn't say anything. He lowered his eyes so that no one could see the emotions in them.
"Second brother, can you lend me 1.5 billion?" Lu Jianheng's Adam's apple rolled, and the tail end of the tone dissipated in the hot mist rising from the tea.
Lu Chixu suddenly leaned back in his chair and sneered, "I'm sitting on a racing car."
His index finger rapped heavily on the tea table, causing the tea pet to shift slightly. "It's not like riding on a money printing machine, nor is it like sitting on Big Brother's lap. Money doesn't come that fast."
Lu Qiyun did not interrupt, but skillfully opened his account to check the movement of his assets.
"Let big brother help me fill the gap, I feel..." Lu Jianheng raised his hand and rubbed the back of his neck, feeling uncomfortable.
"Do you feel good when you ask me for money to fill your heart?" Lu Chixu suddenly leaned forward, clenching his back teeth, but turned his face away when he saw the other person's red ears.
"I'm borrowing it, second brother, I'm not taking it for free." Lu Jianheng wanted to do something and didn't want to rely on his eldest brother for everything.
"I don't have that much liquid capital. I can give you 300 million at most. For the rest, you have to figure it out yourself." Lu Chixu was tough on the outside but soft on the inside. Seeing Lu Jianheng's look, he felt a little uncomfortable.
Lu Qiyun raised two fingers and said in a steady voice, "200 million."
"Your money..." Lu Jianheng paused, raising his hand mid-air, and rubbed his head heavily a few times: "Keep it for yourself to rebuild the laboratory."
Lu Qijun shook his head: "Someone will do it." Huo Beiyan had already made it clear that the reconstruction of the laboratory would be left to him.
He knew in his heart that Ji Linshen must have some ulterior motive behind this.
"Who will pay you such a large sum of money?" Lu Jianheng was obviously unconvinced.
"Don't worry about it, just take it." Lu Qiyun's voice was flat, but his tone was firm.
"Tsk, my younger brother is repaying his parents." Lu Jianheng teased, causing Lu Qiyun to roll his eyes.
"Didn't my sister give you the card?" Lu Chixu suddenly remembered: "How much money is in it?"
Lu Jianheng shook his head: "She stuffed it back. How could I take her money?"
Lu Shiman stood at the door and listened quietly to the conversation inside, his eardrums throbbing with his heartbeat.
The voices of her brothers penetrated the door and turned into fine needles, each of which pierced her most sensitive heart with precision.
"Just don't want mine..." She muttered to herself while counting her heartbeats.
Is it because...she doesn't deserve it?
This thought came up suddenly, without any warning.
Her fingers on the door curled up and she gave up the idea of pushing it open.
The third brother's words kept repeating in his mind, and with each repetition, the wall in his heart grew a little stronger.
She turned back to the bedroom, without turning on the light, and curled up on the sofa, hugging her knees, her spine bent into a self-protective arc.
The eldest brother can fill the holes, the second brother can lend a huge sum of money, and the fourth brother can solve the urgent problems.
The only thing she handed over was the bank card that was stuffed back, like a returned critical illness notice.
Lu Shiman suddenly tightened her arms around herself. Although the room was warm, she felt very cold.
This chill clearly came from the guilt frozen in the body, which was growing into icy spikes along the blood vessels, piercing the internal organs with holes.
Perhaps, she was not worthy of sharing the joys and sorrows with her brothers. It was her problem, she had not done well enough.
Everything is her problem. Her brothers broke up with their parents because of her. Everything is because of her.
She bit her lower lip hard, forcing herself not to think like that, but the more she forced herself not to think like that, the more she couldn't control herself.
The emotion almost overwhelmed her, making it difficult to breathe.
After Ji Linshen finished talking with Lu Yannan, the two went downstairs one after the other.
The living room was empty. Lu Yannan saw the lights on in the tea room and walked over.
Ji Linshen followed behind Lu Yannan.
The three people in the tea room talked about money, then Ji Linshen, how to force Ji Linshen to marry in, and what medicine should be developed.
The moment the tea room door was pushed open, the three of them shut their mouths at the same time.
Ji Lin glanced at the tea room and didn't see Lu Shiman. He didn't step in and turned to walk towards the room.
Lu Yannan turned around to glance at his back, walked into the tea room and closed the door.
"Old Four, send me the information and contract about your cooperation with Huo Beiyan and the others."
"Third brother, please also send me the information I asked you to find about Fu Bowang's whereabouts."
As soon as he sat down, he was bombarded with instructions.
When Lu Chixu heard what his eldest brother said, he looked up and asked, "Is there a problem with the fourth brother's cooperation?"
"There's no problem with the cooperation, but there's a problem with the project." Lu Yannan said coldly.
Lu Chixu exploded: "Did Huo Beiyan and Ji Linshen set up a trap?"
"Fuck, how dare you..."
"Sit down." Lu Yannan said coldly, a warning glance passing by.
Lu Chixu's back teeth made a slight sound, but he still stuffed his fists into his trouser pockets and slowly sat down.
Lu Yannan tapped his fingertips on the edge of the tablet. The cold light from the screen made the frown between his brows deepen. "Ji Linshen sent someone to monitor the lab before, and you chased them away?"
"Yeah." Lu Qijun admitted generously: "Pervert."
"Did you know that all the previous R&D team members of this project are dead?" Lu Yannan turned the tablet towards everyone, and the red marks on the death list were glaring.
Lu Yannan's words were like thunder out of the blue, exploding in the teahouse.
"What?" Lu Jianheng tilted the teacup in his hand suddenly, and the tea spread out on his pants, leaving large wet marks.
Lu Chixu suddenly stood up and knocked over the trash can: "Did Huo Beiyan and Ji Linshen do it?"
Lu Qijun's expression didn't change at all: "I know."
Although he was busy doing experiments and had no social interaction, the loss of so many top R&D personnel in the industry at one time still caused an uproar.
This was the subject of much discussion in the lab for some time.
Even if Ji Linshen and Huo Beiyan tried their best to block the news, they couldn't stop it from being spread intentionally by people with ulterior motives.
This was the reason why Huo Beiyan couldn't find a suitable researcher before. No one wanted to lose their life in vain.
"You know?" Lu Yannan slammed his palm on the tea table: "Then do you know what this means?"
"I know." Lu Qijun certainly knew, but he didn't care.
"If you know why not say it, why don't you say it?" Lu Yannan suddenly grabbed the teacup and knocked on the kettle. The steaming water mist blurred the violence surging in his eyes, but made the throbbing blood vessels in his forehead more clear.
Seeing her elder brother getting angry, Lu Qiyun pursed her lips and dared not speak.
"I didn't tell you such a big thing. Is your brain as useless as Lu Jianheng's?" Lu Yannan felt scared.
"I thought..." Lu Qijun lowered his eyes and stammered, "It's safe in China."
"Safe! Safe. Can your lab be blown to the ground?"
"Decisions involving life safety are all up to you!"
Seeing his brother lowering his head and saying nothing, Lu Chixu felt a little distressed: "Brother, why are you scolding Xiaojun for this?"
"Aren't those two bastards Ji Linshen and Huo Beiyan the culprits?"
