Chapter 482: A Complete Operation Manual to Save Third Brother from Broken Heart
In the box.
Lu Jianheng leaned on his sister's shoulder, absorbing the warmth, and the guilt in his heart almost overwhelmed him.
He sniffed, his voice muffled and self-deprecating: "Manman..."
Lu Jianheng finally spoke, his voice hoarse and broken: "Am I a failure?"
"I can't keep the one I love, I can't be a good lover, a bad brother, or a bad younger brother. I seem to... I can't do anything right."
Lu Shiman immediately turned his head to look at him and shook his head vigorously: "No, Third Brother."
She said firmly, "At least, you are very successful in being an idiot."
Lu Jianheng: “…”
He choked and almost choked on his own saliva.
Lu Shiman looked at his stunned expression and chuckled softly before saying seriously, "Third Brother, you are the one and only Third Brother. You are the one and only Lu Jianheng in the world."
She looked at Lu Jianheng with a burning gaze, her eyes bright and serious.
Lu Jianheng looked at her, feeling both warm and bitter in his heart.
He continued to say those self-loathing words, as if only in this way could he alleviate the guilt of deceiving her.
As Lu Shiman listened, her heart beat faster and she held his hand tighter.
Finally, Lu Jianheng took a deep breath, as if mustering up the courage, and said the most crucial words.
"Manman, I need you." His voice was low and hoarse, with a fragile dependence.
These words were like a fiery child jumping into a calm lake.
Lu Shiman's heart skipped a beat, and a strange feeling swept over his body.
It was a feeling of being strongly needed.
Clear and specific.
It was no longer a vague 'we are a family', but 'I, Lu Jianheng, need you, Lu Shiman'.
This feeling is both strange and familiar, like a downpour after a long drought.
She always felt that she was the weakest one in the family, the one who needed to be protected, and the younger sister who needed to be taken care of.
But now, her powerful third brother revealed his vulnerability in front of her and said in person that he needed her.
This need is different from the need Ji Linshen expressed when he confessed his love.
The needs are also different from what Qin Jiaojiao said.
She is needed by her third brother and she can protect him.
Lu Shiman's eyes lit up instantly.
She shook his hand back vigorously, her voice clear and crisp: "Third brother, I will always be here."
"Behind you, in front of you, beside you."
Lu Jianheng was amused by her words, and his voice was nasal: "Heh, do you want to circle around me?"
Lu Shiman nodded vigorously, a bright smile blooming on his face: "Yes! Just follow the third brother, I love to follow the third brother."
Her tone was light and a bit coquettish, and then she made a serious promise: "Third brother, don't worry, I will help you get out of the shadow of heartbreak, leave it to me."
Lu Jianheng looked at her bright smile and felt soft in his heart.
He leaned back on her shoulder, closed his eyes, and hummed softly.
At least at this moment, this dependence and need are real.
....
After that night, Lu Shiman and Qin Jiaojiao stayed in the study, tinkering with it for several days.
The two pairs of eyes were shining brightly, as if they were carrying out a great project that concerned the fate of mankind.
Finally, a PPT titled "A Complete Manual to Save Brother San from a Broken Heart" was created.
The two thought about it for a long time and felt that relying on their own strength was not safe enough.
They hit it off immediately and decided to bring in the strategic advisory group, Ji Linshen and Huo Beiyan.
The two of them rushed to Ji Linshen's company with their notebooks.
On the way, Qin Jiaojiao called Huo Beiyan and asked him to wait in Ji Linshen's office as there was something important.
The day before yesterday, Huo Beiyan took Qin Jiaojiao to find Pei Mo Ning.
Same as Lu Shiman, yet different.
What makes Qin Jiaojiao better than Lu Shiman is that she longs for love.
Huo Beiyan, who had always been obedient to Qin Jiaojiao, now spoiled her to the point of lawlessness.
After canceling all afternoon schedules, Huo Beiyan rushed to Ji Linshen's office.
Although I don’t know what my wife is going to do, I just have to cooperate with her.
The conference room in Ji Linshen's office.
The huge projection screen was lit.
Lu Shiman stood next to the curtain, holding a page-turning pen, with a serious expression and a very serious attitude.
Huo Beiyan leaned back in his chair, looking at the beautifully crafted PPT cover, his eyebrows slightly raised, and he leaned towards Ji Linshen beside him, lowering his voice: "Wow, it's quite presentable."
Ji Linshen ignored him, his eyes focused on Lu Shiman in front of the curtain, with a doting smile on his lips.
Qin Jiaojiao sat on the other side of Huo Beiyan, her body sitting straight, her eyes full of encouragement.
"Ahem..." Lu Shiman cleared his throat and began crisply, "First, let's clarify our objective: to help my dear and pitiful third brother, Mr. Lu Jianheng, quickly shake off the shadow of heartbreak and regain his romantic life... no, regain a healthy life."
She pressed the page-turning pen.
The second page appears: [Phase 1, physical paralysis, diversion.]
"Plan A, extreme sports stimulation." Lu Shiman's eyes lit up. "Let Third Brother experience bungee jumping, roller coasters, skydiving. The moment the adrenaline surges, all the emotional pain will fly away."
"The key point is to scare him to tears, so that he can remember how good it is to be alive and that he can't die without love."
Huo Beiyan's mouth twitched, and he muttered softly: "Why do I feel like I want to send him away directly..."
Lu Shiman didn't hear and continued, "Plan B, the catharsis method of having a wild party."
The PPT screen turned into various club private rooms.
"Let the game continue, let Third Brother's legs cramp and his brain be deprived of oxygen, and forget about Shen Mingzhu!"
Qin Jiaojiao nodded vigorously: "Yes, use physical fatigue to cover up mental fatigue. Starting tomorrow, all members of our gossip group will be mobilized, and everyone will take turns to arrange shifts, so that Third Brother can have a game every night."
Qin Jiaojiao was very proud because this proposal was her idea.
Ji Linshen picked up the water cup and took a sip to hide the smile that overflowed from the corner of his mouth.
Huo Beiyan had an expression that said, "Are you serious?"
Lu Shiman finished the first stage passionately and switched to the next page: [The second stage: soul massage, energy injection.]
"Plan C: Confidence Restoration Therapy." Lu Shiman raised his chin. "Take Third Brother shopping, let him experience the invincible beauty of money. I'll pay for anything he likes!"
Huo Beiyan couldn't help but interrupt: "Are you sure this won't make him swell up even more?"
Lu Shiman glared at him: "What do you know? This is what I want."
She turned to look at Ji Linshen: "Mr. Ji, do you want to reimburse me?"
Ji Linshen put down the water cup: "Mr. Ji's money is with Mrs. Ji, and Mrs. Ji can use it as she pleases."
Lu Shiman nodded with satisfaction.
He continued to show the plan to save Lu Jianheng, which seemed unreliable but was actually really unreliable.
The plan presentation is complete.
Lu Shiman turned around, puffed out his chest and waited for praise.
Qin Jiaojiao immediately took the lead in clapping loudly, and the applause was particularly loud in the conference room.
Ji Linshen's smile deepened, and he followed suit and applauded, his gaze gently falling on Lu Shiman.
Huo Beiyan had a complicated expression, as if he was trying to suppress his laughter, or as if he had a headache.
Just as he was about to say something, Qin Jiaojiao gave him a sharp glare.
"If you dare to pour cold water on me, you're dead!"
