Huo Jingxi did not think the deal was worthwhile.
As the saying goes, money lost can be earned back.
But with the person gone, the Lu family's green hills will truly become a barren wasteland, with no firewood left to burn.
On the scales of his values, money can buy life, but not everyone's life is worth buying with money.
Lu Han, a born bad boy, was fortunate to have been raised in the Lu family for so many years, which suppressed the evil genes he carried in his bones.
Otherwise, he would have entered the palace many times over.
The Huo family is not short of money, and neither is Lu Yi. Some things don't appear when people desperately need them.
Once time passes, no matter how precious it is, it will be discarded like worn-out shoes.
"Lu Baofei, you've got a really clever plan. You're using the Huo family's protection to safeguard your research achievements, and then you'll use your influence to support the Lu family. Aren't you thinking too highly of yourself?"
Huo Jingxi has a sharp tongue.
The thought that Lu Baofei might have been using a scheme against her instantly ruined all goodwill towards her.
“It’s clearly stated in the contract that I, Lu Baofei, am merely a manager at a branch of the Huo family, and I have not sold myself to the Huo family!”
Lu Baofei was equally eager to participate.
The Lu Group has experienced ups and downs, but has been rescued several times. Lu Baofei believes that the Lu Group's fortunes will not be exhausted so quickly.
Qin Fengying was talking nonsense, as if she was experiencing some terrible nightmare.
Don't expect her to stand tall and preside over the Lu family business at this time.
Needless to say, Lu Baofei still hasn't figured out Huo's purpose in cultivating her.
Even if we force her to join Lu's Group, who among the shareholders and employees would respect her, besides her looks?
The eldest sister, Lu Baozhi, has said several times that she wants to come back, so it seems she won't give up her career so easily.
She is an angel who saves lives.
Given a life that had nothing to do with her and the dying Lu Group in front of her, Lu Baofei could easily guess what choice she would make.
The Lu family, who used to be constantly visited, has now become the biggest joke in Jiangzhou City.
Enthusiastic netizens on the internet turned the Lu family's misfortunes into jokes and even wrote a revenge story for Lu Yi in classical Chinese.
Less than a hundred words, yet utterly exhilarating.
If Lu Baofei hadn't been in the situation, she would definitely have given him a thumbs up.
When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter; when the drum is broken, ten thousand people beat it.
The Lin family, the Wang family, and those pseudo-wealthy families who were previously vying for a share of the Lu family's wealth have all disappeared overnight!
If Lu Baofei doesn't rely on herself, who else can she rely on!
"Lu Baofei, can you really absolve yourself of all the things you've done? Lu Yi is only refusing to do anything to you because of the Huo family. Don't push your luck!"
Huo Jingxi was undecided. It was Lu Yi who had lured him into a trap and ensnared Lu Baofei.
Now, if she wants to get out of this predicament, she still needs to ask Lu Yi's opinion.
I gave her a few perfunctory words and then hung up the phone.
"She wants to revive the Lu family?"
After listening to Huo Jingxi's words, Lu Yi's deep eyes rippled slightly.
The wind blowing in through the window caused his hair to cover his eyes, but Huo Jingxi knew at a glance that Lu Baofei had fallen for his trap again!
"Probably so. After all, the Lu Group is quite large, with several shareholders backed by powerful financial backers. They can rival Mr. Gong."
"Whether Lu Han swims in the water or flies in the sky, his destination is there. Our people are lying in wait, he can't escape."
"And as long as he shows his face, the police there won't let him go."
"But Lu Baofei is no naive girl. Based on the evidence we have, at most we can put her in jail for a few days, but we can't harm her in the slightest."
If you don't strike the snake where it hurts most, the consequences will be dire.
This is exactly what Huo Jingxi is worried about.
"Then say yes!"
A bloodthirsty excitement shone through Lu Yi's sharply defined face, his eyes full of amusement, indicating that he was confident of success.
Huo Jingxi was secretly relieved that this person was his brother, not his enemy.
He severed ties with the Lu family early on, but in the end, the Huo family benefited instead. Otherwise, the Huo family might not have made a fuss by now.
He opened his eyes slightly, looked around, and asked, "Is my older brother back?"
Lu Yi shook his head, "He wasn't here when I came back. He said he went to see a friend..."
Did he go to see Lu Baoqi?
Huo Jingxi noticed his frown and cleared his throat.
"My brother has never been serious about any woman. It's rare for him to be serious this time. Aren't you going to let him have his way?"
Lu Baoqi possesses a foxy charm, but her small head limits her intelligence, causing her to do foolish things.
Compared to Lu Han, her crime was indeed not that serious.
Lu Yi is unable to resolve the knot in his heart about Lu Gengsheng's murder, making it extremely difficult to get him to let go of any member of the Lu family.
Huo Jingxi did not hear the answer he wanted.
Just loosen the soil on his barren land, trampled down by time, in case a flower really grows from underneath!
Thinking of this, his expression changed smoothly.
During the time I was expanding Huo's territory, I saw too many two-faced people, and now I've also developed a face that can switch between different expressions at will.
"Never mind what I said, go inside, it's cold outside."
Fan Huijun draped her coat over Liang Shiyue and pulled her out of the ward.
Seeing Huo Jingxi turn around, she nodded gently, "Young Master Huo, thank you for taking care of Yi'er for me. If he does anything foolish in the future, please call me anytime."
Huo Jingxi made a face at Lu Yi, "Okay, I'll go in first!"
Fan Huijun poked Lu Yi in the heart and glared at him fiercely.
"I've already said it, Xiaoyue is my sister, I'll handle her affairs. You, just go do what you're supposed to do."
