Netizens were fed up with the gossip, but no authoritative figure came forward to reveal the truth. Over time, the topic's popularity gradually decreased.
Even if someone recognizes him on the street, they will only look at him with envy and click their tongues.
However, it's really hard to find any real updates about Lu Yi online.
As for his marriage to Gu Keke, it seemed to be making a big fuss and quite a stir, but Lu Han scoffed at it.
How could Lu Yi possibly be interested in Gu Keke?
He treated Liang Shiyue, that maid-like girl, like a treasure, and had no interest in Gu Keke.
Lu Han put down her phone listlessly, met Lu Zhengming's probing gaze, and gave an unnatural grin.
"Dad, are you really in such a hurry to go back? You rarely come here, why don't you spend a few more days with me?"
Lu Zhengming hung his briefcase on the handle of his suitcase, walked over, and patted his head.
"Han'er, Dad wants to spend more time with you, but things at the company can't be put off for too long!"
Seeing his son's displeasure, Lu Zhengming squatted down and picked him up from the chair, just like he used to when his son was a child.
After walking around for a while, I was panting heavily.
"The company was facing a crisis this time, and Dad almost couldn't handle it. It's all thanks to you that you turned the tide and introduced a capable partner like He Mingbo to Dad!"
A lump formed in Lu Zhengming's throat, and his eyes welled up with tears, a man who rarely revealed his feelings.
The gray hair at her temples, the weariness between her brows, and her bloodshot eyes all became tangible feelings, causing Lu Han to lose her composure.
He awkwardly held Lu Zhengming's drooping head, his anxious expression masking a sly glint in his eyes.
"Dad, isn't this what I should do?"
"When you and Mom discussed sending me abroad, it was so that I could learn skills, expand my network, and one day share the burden with Dad."
"I only found out about He Mingbo by chance from a friend. I begged him for a long time before he agreed."
We absolutely mustn't miss this opportunity!
Lu Zhengming sighed inwardly, unaware of Lu Han's smug expression at the success of his scheme.
He sat down and patted Lu Han's back hard.
"Han'er, you left home all alone and suffered a lot here. I thought you resented your father."
Lu Zhengming rubbed his temples, feeling extremely guilty, and paused for a moment.
“I’ve heard your mother say many times that when you had a cold and fever, you always toughed it out on your own, and it made me feel bad.”
"By the way, your mom keeps nagging about you having a girlfriend. I haven't seen her these past few days."
Back in China, Lu Han preferred to associate with shady characters.
It's no wonder Qin Fengying is worried about this.
The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. If he were to encounter someone like the Lin family again, who knows what kind of fate awaited him!
Lu Zhengming looked around but found no trace of any girl in the house, which naturally aroused his curiosity.
"Her? She hasn't graduated yet. It's inconvenient for her to have me around when I take leave to accompany you on your business."
"If things were going smoothly for the Lu family, that would be fine, but right now, we can't let her know too much. Next time, when there's another opportunity, you and Mom can come together, and I'll formally introduce you!"
This kind of question is no challenge for Lu Han.
The excuse he made up on the spot was more than enough to deal with Lu Zhengming.
Actually, Lu Han didn't know what Feng Anna had been busy with lately. Some time ago, he gave her a sum of money, and the woman immediately quit her job at the convenience store.
She wouldn't answer the phone or reply to text messages, and Lu Han even began to suspect that she might be a fraudster!
“Okay, Dad is just worried that you might meet the wrong person. If she’s a good girl and can take care of you, then neither I nor you have any objections.”
Lu Zhengming held Lu Han's hand, his eyes gently scrutinizing him.
It seems she wants to remember his appearance.
"Dad, it's time to go to the airport!"
Lu Han was on edge, worried that he would ask her more questions about the details of her life and studies, so she quickly checked the time and reminded him.
Fortunately, Lu Zhengming was focused on the cooperation. As he got up, he suddenly remembered something and picked up his phone to call He Mingbo.
He was pleased with the other party's response.
Lu Zhengming didn't linger; he picked up his suitcase and walked out.
While driving, Lu Han observed Lu Zhengming's expression through the rearview mirror.
He would check his phone, look at documents, and occasionally send voice messages to people to discuss the feasibility of cooperation.
After a flurry of activity, his brow finally relaxed. He gathered all the documents and carefully placed them into his file bag.
Lu Han deliberately slowed down and handed him a bottle of water.
"Dad, I haven't heard you mention my brother before. How has he been lately?"
He tried to appear nonchalant, speaking as if the neighbor's dog had given birth to a few puppies.
Lu Zhengming paused for a moment, then suddenly turned his gaze towards him, "Your brother?"
You mean Lu Yi?
With annoyed, Lu Zhengming uttered the barbed name, placed his briefcase on the seat next to him, and crossed his legs.
"He was kidnapped a while ago and was slightly injured, but it won't kill him!"
"He's such a troublemaker. If he were half as sensible as you, no one in the family would have been able to tolerate him back then!"
"Now look what's happened! Everyone thinks the Lu family mistreated him and forced him to find fathers everywhere... Ugh, just mentioning him makes me angry!"
Lu Zhengming regained his former authority from when he lived in the Lu family.
His face darkened.
"Alright, alright, let's not mention him, lest it spoil our mood."
"I prepared gifts for Mom and my sister, and I also prepared one for my brother. If Dad doesn't want to see him, I can send it to him after I go back to China!"
