With just a few words, Lu Baoqi's doubts were dispelled, and Lu Han's contempt for her was self-evident.
"Third sister, you rest for a while. I'm going to check on Mom and tell eldest sister..."
She's just a nobody, a pretty face with no substance, nothing to worry about.
Let's try to calm Qin Fengying down first!
To prevent Lu Baoqi from accidentally letting something slip and causing everyone to turn their anger towards him again.
It was already a turbulent time, and when Fan Tong went in, Lu Han felt like a grasshopper that had lost an arm.
Even trying to show off in front of Lu Yi felt like a daunting task.
At that moment, Lu Baozhi was answering her father's phone call from the window on the stairs.
She tries her best to report good news and not bad news.
"Dad, are your negotiations going well over there? You and my sister should take good care of yourselves..."
Lu Zhengming was riding high, having secured two major clients in a row.
He said a few words briefly, then his tone suddenly turned cold.
"Okay! That brat Lu Yi hasn't caused any more trouble for the family, has he?"
Lu Baozhi felt somewhat embarrassed upon hearing this.
It's no wonder Lu Yi doesn't want to communicate with his father, given how deep his prejudice against him is.
"Dad, Lu Yi is doing well. He recently got in touch with the Gu family, and his small shop has a stable income."
Lu Baozhi tried her best to calmly point out Lu Yi's good qualities.
Lu Zhengming, however, did not take it to heart.
"How far can his petty cleverness take him? He can't save face in front of us like this. Let him show off. Sooner or later he'll have to come home and beg us."
"Let's not talk about him anymore, it makes me angry... Has Han'er been behaving well lately? Is the injury on his head any better?"
Lu Han was an adopted son.
But during the few days Lu Zhengming was abroad, he was the one he missed the most.
This made him understand even more clearly that it didn't matter whether Lu Yi returned to the Lu family or not, since sooner or later he would have to rely on the Lu family to make a living.
"Is he alright... I don't know what to say, you should call your mother and ask."
Lu Baozhi didn't want to mention Lu Han from the bottom of her heart.
He was the one who caused trouble, but in the end, it was always Lu Yi who was misunderstood.
Putting aside past grievances and entanglements, Lu Yi's current conduct and interpersonal skills are more than ten or a hundred times better than Lu Han's.
Unfortunately, Lu Yi doesn't even acknowledge her as his older sister anymore.
"How can you be such a good older sister? Han'er is your younger brother, and you watched him grow up. You should pay more attention to him."
"How's the school you asked me to find for him coming along? If Han'er makes a decision, hurry up and help him get his passport sorted out. We'll take him to see the school when we get back."
Lu Zhengming kept talking about Lu Han.
They made no mention of finding a foreign university for Lu Yi.
Lu Baozhi said calmly, "Dad, didn't you say you couldn't bear to let Han'er go abroad at such a young age, and asked me to help Yi'er find a job first?"
"What do you know! You should go abroad as early as possible. The education environment in China is so complicated. Can't you see how much Han'er has suffered because of it?"
Lu Zhengming completely forgot the plans he had made for Lu Yi before he left.
Lu Baozhi gave a casual reply and hung up the phone with a cold face.
When I turned around, I realized that Lu Han was standing behind me.
"Han'er, what are you doing here?"
Lu Han concealed her dissatisfaction with her eldest sister and meekly stepped aside at the door.
"Third sister is awake. I couldn't find Mom. I heard you talking on the phone here, so I came to check. Was it Dad calling?"
Lu Baozhi stared at his face, slightly taken aback.
This younger brother is still the same as before, good at reading people's expressions, but for some reason I suddenly find his pretentious manner annoying.
“It was Dad. He said he couldn’t get through to you on the phone, so he called me…”
Lu Han slapped her forehead, realizing, "Oh dear, I just changed my number, Dad doesn't know yet. I'll call him back in a bit!"
Lu Baozhi walked towards Lu Baoqi's ward. "Why did you change your number when everything was fine?"
Seeing that she had no intention of asking questions, Lu Han had an idea and made up a reason.
“I’ve been having a lot of trouble lately, which has made my mom and sister worry about me. Changing my number and starting over might help.”
Lu Baozhi remained noncommittal and pushed open the door to the ward.
...
The series of troubles is finally showing signs of coming to an end.
Lu Yi sat at the bar and roughly calculated the net profit of the beverage shop. After deducting the tuition fees for the next academic year, he could still save a large sum of money.
If this revenue continues to accumulate, there will be no need to worry about university tuition fees at all.
If he saves up enough, he wants to formally propose a collaboration to Fan Huijun.
Looking at global development trends, which industries consistently rank at the top of the income charts?
Besides grains, oils, and food, the pharmaceutical and healthcare industry continues to be a hot sector.
Anyone can get sick, and when you get sick, you need to get treatment. But how to get treatment is an ultimate question with no standard answer.
This has led to the development of new drugs, new medical devices, and new treatment plans.
It must be said that Fan Huijun's vision was extremely forward-thinking.
Every investment and effort made today has the potential to bring benefits to everyone in the future.
To work in the medical industry, one cannot rely solely on conscience; one must also possess sufficient professional knowledge, the courage to innovate boldly, and substantial financial support.
Without money, nothing is worth discussing.
Liang Shiyue sipped her milk tea and snuggled closer to Lu Yi. "My domineering CEO Lu, you've made so much money, aren't you going to treat us?"
As she spoke, she playfully winked at the shop assistants.
Lu Yi put away the calculator, folded the scribbled paper, and tapped her smooth forehead twice.
"Why haven't you made a decision yet, as the boss's wife?"
The shop assistants burst into laughter.
Liang Shiyue glanced at Lu Yi with a flushed face, "Let's go eat at a barbecue buffet. A new one just opened up in that building, and the reviews are really good!"
"Okay, whatever you say!"
Lu Yi put the paper in his pocket, just as his phone rang.
Upon seeing that it was Fan Huijun's call, Lu Yi asked Liang Shiyue to reserve a table first, and then walked out of the store.
"Miss Fan, how is the battle going over there?"
Hearing his teasing greeting, Fan Huijun laughed heartily, "Ceding two cities has stabilized the enemy's morale. I'm already at the airport."
It's impossible to share the entire market that we've worked so hard to build with the Lu family.
Even if Fan Huijun herself doesn't care, the shareholders of Fan's Group won't agree.
"Shall I treat you to a welcome-back dinner tomorrow?"
Lu Yi didn't need to worry about Fan Huijun at all, because the Fan family was the leader in the medical market.
No matter how shrewd Lu Baofei is, she can't possibly gain any advantage over her.
Fan Huijun burst into exaggerated, loud laughter.
"What tomorrow? My dear Lu Yi, I'm at Jiangzhou Airport, I've already departed, okay? I'll send you my location, come join your sister and share in the bountiful harvest!"
Lu Yi hesitated and said, "It won't work today. It's a team building event at the store, and it's the first time I'm treating everyone to a meal. It wouldn't be right for me to just leave."
Fan Huijun did not insist.
"It's okay, you stay with them first. I can stay here as late as I want... The company is waiting for my report, and I can't be here early either. The driver is here, so let's leave it at that for now!"
Lu Yi had just hung up the phone when he looked up and suddenly saw Lin Xiaoya slowly walking towards him...
