It's terrible. Mr. Lu is too clingy.

Wang Chenxuan, who used to work for three days and rest for two days, has been surprisingly diligent in coming to the company recently.

Others don’t know, but Wang Jinge and Xie Xingran know the real reason.

Wang Chenxuan had been instigated and instructed by Jiang Ci Yang long ago to sell his shares in exchange for the opportunity to stay in the company.

Finally, wait for an opportunity to steal secrets and gain the greatest benefits for the Jiang Group, and there will be a lot of spare money after success.

Unfortunately, their plan will fail.

Not to mention that there are surveillance cameras everywhere, just based on Wang Jinge's vigilance and sensitivity, it would be impossible for them to succeed.

However, Wang Jinge suspected that there was a traitor in the company. Wang Chenxuan was just the one in the open, and no one knew how many traitors were lurking in secret.

So just in case, she slept in the company before the negotiations. Anyway, she had everything she needed.

Seeing her like this, Xie Xingran wanted to come and accompany her, so Lu Ci ended up staying alone in the empty room.

These days, Xie Xingran has been in the company, eating boxed lunches at noon and meals delivered by Lu Ci at night.

At noon that day, they talked on the phone for more than ten minutes as usual.

Xie Xingran: "Negotiations will begin tomorrow. I plan to come back and sleep tonight."

Lu Ci was naturally overjoyed and cried with joy: "Wife, are you finally coming back to pamper me?"

She leaned back in her chair and said:

"Well, considering that you have been doing so well recently, you should take a good shower tonight and wait for my favor."

Lu Ci also cooperated: "Yes, I obey your command~"

Xie Xingran laughed out loud: "Lu Ciye, are you a eunuch? What are you talking about?"

It's my fault. He is always good at playing like this.

Lu Ci said without hesitation:

"Eunuch is fine too. I'll go look up some eunuch tricks and make sure to serve my wife well when the time comes."

Xie Xingran jokingly said, "Okay, right? Then can I let you be a real eunuch?"

Hearing this, someone subconsciously clamped their legs together, "This is not okay, this is not okay."

He hastily rejected it, but taking advantage of the fact that she couldn't hit him, he continued to speak recklessly:

"And, honey, are you willing to give it up? This is your happiness for the rest of your life. How can you be happy without it?"

Disgusting!

Xie Xingran sneered: "Why are you reluctant? I have plenty of ways to have fun, but I'm afraid you will never be able to have fun again."

Hearing the chill in her tone, Lu Ci restrained himself a little and said flatteringly:

"Hey, honey, I was just joking, why did you take it so seriously? You're coming back tonight, right? Then I'll pick you up."

Xie Xingran refused: "No, I still have to work overtime. You go back and cook first, I will take a taxi back."

He didn't force it: "Okay, honey, you have to come back soon. I'll be waiting for you~"

After hanging up the phone, Lu Ci was in a very good mood.

With his legs resting on the desk and his phone spinning in his hand, his posture was casual and lazy.

I opened the photo album and stared at Xie Xingran's portrait. The more I looked, the more moved I became.

"Ah~ It's my wife, kiss~ Mua~"

"Knock knock—" There was a knock on the door. Lu Ci immediately became serious and shouted, "Come in."

Xiao Zhang pushed the door open carrying a meal and said, "Mr. Lu, this is the lunch you requested."

"Thanks, put it down. I'll transfer the money to you. Any extra is just for running errands."

Xiao Zhang thanked him but did not leave immediately. He hesitated and said, "Mr. Lu, there is one more thing."

Lu Ci also opened his lunch box and asked without raising his head, "What's the matter?"

Xiao Zhang handed over his business card. "There's a woman downstairs who claims to be the daughter of the Su family who just returned from China. She also says she was your childhood playmate and wants to meet you now. She has something urgent to tell you."

Lu Ci also frowned and looked at the name on the business card - Su Nianwan.

A bit of an impression, but not much.

"Please leave politely," he said in a calm tone, but with a hint of pride, "I'm a married man. Unless it's work-related, I won't see anyone else."

Xiao Zhang's mouth twitched. He hasn't been a driver recently, but he still eats a lot of dog food.

"Okay, Mr. Lu, I'll ask him to leave right away." Xiao Zhang said, and left the office respectfully.

Lu Ci also waved his hand, not taking it seriously. He took a picture of the meal he had eaten and sent it to Xie Xingran, adding a voiceover:

"Honey, I had sweet and sour spareribs and braised pork today. What did you have?"

Xie Xingran also took a picture of his lunch and showed it to him, saying:

"It's not as good as yours. I hope I can have 'authentic' preserved vegetable pork tonight."

The two were chatting enthusiastically when suddenly, there was no news from Lu Ci.

Xie Xingran: [? What were you doing?]

She thought of the videos she had seen in her spare time, which roughly meant that the man suddenly disappeared, probably because he was chatting with another girl.

However, Xie Xingran didn't believe that Lu Ci had that intention, and just thought that he was busy with something urgent.

Xie Xingran: [You go get busy with your work. I have to get busy too. Remember to make me some preserved vegetable braised pork tonight.]

After sending this message, Xie Xingran quickly ate and continued to work.

Little did they know that on the other side, Lu Ci was actually chatting with other sisters, but it wasn't very pleasant.

In the coffee shop,

Lu Ci also sat opposite Su Nianwan. The seats around them had been cleared by the people Su Nianwan brought with her. There were only the two of them within ten meters.

Lu Ciye's face looked very bad, and he clenched his fists to avoid losing his composure.

He spoke first: "How did you know my phone number?"

Su Nianwan was dressed in a white moonlight outfit, looking pure and lovely, but the shrewdness and calculation in her eyes were revealed without any concealment at this moment.

She took a sip of the hot coffee in her hand, and then said slowly:

"If you want to know, you'll know. Brother Ciye, are you sure you want to discuss this with me first?"

"My mom only gave birth to me, so don't call me brother." Lu Ci said coldly, "Just tell me, what do you want to do by bringing this up after all these years?"

Su Nianwan pursed her lips, as if she didn't want to threaten others with other people's secrets.

But she must ensure that she wins this cooperation, and her biggest competitor is the Venus Group...

"Mr. Lu, I heard that your wife is Director Xie of the Venus Group."

Lu Ci's jawline was also tense, his eyes were as cold as a thousand-year-old ice, and he stared at the woman opposite him.

"What do you want to do?"

……

After chatting for only five minutes, Su Nianwan stood up from her seat.

Before leaving, he turned his head to look at the expressionless and indifferent person, and curved his lips to remind him:

"Mr. Lu, I believe you care deeply about your reputation and will make the decision that is best for you. I will be waiting for your news before the formal negotiations tomorrow."

Lu Ci also chuckled lightly, with a half-smile on his face, but did not answer.

But his face was too pale, and his eyes were even colder than the bleak autumn wind.

Su Nianwan didn't stay any longer and got into the car and left with his bodyguards.

Lu Ci was left sitting there alone. The coldness all over his body and the memories in his mind kept hitting him, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

After a long pause, he finally suppressed his nausea, paid the bill, left, and returned to the company to continue working.
