"Your uncle is still your uncle, and he will eventually have to separate from the family."
Tang Li didn't know who had asked Lu Jianshen to take her under his wing back then, but she could tell that Lu Jianshen was honest and straightforward and would never be like what his mother said.
"Introduce Chengyi to the partners and investors you've recently collaborated with, and try to make a good impression on them. Lili, your husband is your pillar of strength!" Lu's mother coaxed patiently.
When her son died, in order to keep the position of the eldest son's wife, Lu's mother couldn't wait to let Tang Li join the company to replace her son.
Unexpectedly, Tang Li, a woman, has been doing very well at Lu's company in recent years, and people even call her "Little President Tang".
But she doesn't actually have the surname Lu!
The property belonging to the Lu family should not fall into the hands of someone outside the family.
Lu's mother originally planned to persuade Tang Li to willingly give up her position, but she didn't expect Tang Li to agree so readily.
“Mom, I’ve thought about it seriously. I’m not young anymore. It’s time to have a child with Chengyi. I can stay home and take care of the family while he takes care of the company’s important matters.”
"That's right!" Mrs. Lu was so happy she couldn't stop smiling. "Lili, Chengyi is so lucky to have such a virtuous wife like you!"
Tang Li smiled faintly, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. She wasn't stupid; Madam Lu wanted to discard her after she had served her purpose.
However, she had no attachment to the Lu family's possessions; she only took what she deserved.
studio.
Tang Li was sitting there painting, her brush just dipped in paint, when Lu Jianshen pushed open the door and came in from outside.
"Are you planning to give your job to Cheng Yi?" Lu Jianshen got straight to the point, explaining his purpose.
Tang Li's brush touched the canvas, and she replied calmly, "It was originally his job, so I should return it to him."
“He can’t handle it with his current abilities.” Lu Jianshen’s eyes were deep and dark.
He knew his nephew's limitations well; he lacked talent and didn't work hard. As for Tang Li, he had personally mentored him, so he had more confidence in him.
"Uncle, did he cause you any trouble?"
Lu Jianshen replied in a deep voice, "His presence at the company will definitely cause trouble."
That would be the best way. It would be best to let all the employees of the company see how incompetent the young master of the Lu family is.
"Uncle, you should talk to your mother about this."
Lu Jianshen frowned. Indeed, he had only come to see Tang Li under some pretext, as Tang Li was unable to handle the matter.
He stepped forward and reminded them, "The colors of the flowers and leaves are too intense; they're overshadowing the main subject."
"Yeah?"
Tang Li frowned slightly, tore the paper in front of her to shreds without hesitation, and started drawing a new picture.
It could have been changed, but she couldn't tolerate any flaws, and the same applied to her marriage.

The servants' quarters.
Ding Weiwei lay naked on top of Lu Chengyi, her breath coming in short gasps.
"Brother Chengyi, there should be many distinguished guests at your welcome party, right? I want to be your date. I'm the one who brought you back home. Without me, you wouldn't be here today."
As Ding Weiwei spoke, she drew circles on his chest with her finger.
She giggled and nestled against the man's chest, "I'm already carrying your child..."
Lu Chengyi thought about it and became unhappy.
“No, there are too many relatives and friends coming that day. If they find out that I have an ambiguous relationship with a nanny, they will definitely look down on me!” Lu Chengyi blurted out.
After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, realizing he had said the wrong thing.
As expected, Ding Weiwei's expression suddenly changed.
In the past few days, she had also heard some rumors from the servants.
They said she was not good enough for Lu Chengyi at all, and that the young master was just playing with her now and would dump her after a while.
"What do you mean? Chengyi, do you think being with me is shameful?"
Lu Chengyi felt a little guilty, but still said, "That's not what I meant, it's just that your current status... is not worthy of me!"
"Lu Chengyi, you're the one who made me work as a nanny and let me stay in your house, and now you're complaining about me!" Ding Weiwei shouted.
Reason told her that she couldn't lose her composure over such a small matter, but she couldn't quite control her emotions.
"I don't care, I have to be your date that day."
Lu Chengyi didn't speak, but felt a tightness in his chest. That feeling of being forced and unwilling surged up again, still because of the threat from a lowly nanny.
"Brother Chengyi..."
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say."
Lu Chengyi was tired and answered absentmindedly.
Of course, the only person who could accompany him to the Lu family's banquet was the young mistress of the Lu family.
Ding Weiwei started being sarcastic again, "Chengyi, are you sure there's really nothing between Uncle and Tang Li? I feel like Uncle is protecting Tang Li in every way."
Lu Chengyi frowned and shook his head.
"Impossible! Too many rich girls like my uncle. He wouldn't be interested in Tang Li. Besides, my uncle can have any kind of woman he wants!"
Ding Wei nodded slightly, feeling a pang of sadness in her heart.
Soon, the day of the banquet arrived.
Tang Li had been waiting for a long time, and today was the day she would officially file for divorce!
Lu Chengyi was dressed neatly early in the morning.
Ding Weiwei also spent a lot of money, buying a gorgeous evening gown for 20,000 yuan, but it looked a bit unnatural on her.
"Chengyi, do I look good in this?"
Lu Chengyi frowned, wanting her to help in the kitchen, but he was afraid Ding Weiwei would lose control of her emotions and go crazy.
"nice."
The guests were numerous, and Ding Weiwei excitedly followed Lu Chengyi, as if afraid that others wouldn't know that she was Lu Chengyi's date today.
