Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder's Wish Check-in Machine
Chapter 148 The Simp Stand-in Quits (22)
But as it turns out, Mr. Lu was wrong once again.
The anticipated triumphant turnaround failed to materialize; instead, it was another defeat in reality!
The reason is simple: the competitor has launched a "battle royale" mode!
In this war without gunfire, the Lu family suffered another crushing defeat. This defeat also made Lu's father realize one thing completely—this wasn't just bad luck at all; someone was definitely targeting the Lu family from behind!
Mr. Lu felt that unless this person was dragged out from behind, the other party would definitely not let it go!
In order to avoid sitting idly by and waiting for their doom, Lu's father intensified the investigation. The Li family, in a moment of carelessness, failed to hide their true colors and were exposed.
Upon learning that the company's owner was Li Nianyun, Mr. Lu breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart gradually relaxed. He felt that he had succeeded in persuading the other party to give up the company.
Lu's father acted quickly and soon arranged to meet with Li Nianyun.
"Nianyun, I never expected you to be so capable at such a young age! You've even succeeded so well in the gaming industry, which the Li family has never ventured into before! I remember telling your father before that we should become in-laws!"
Li Nianyun wasn't surprised to see Mr. Lu come knocking. It wouldn't be in line with the Lu family's style if he didn't make a move!
She smiled shyly, "Not at all, Uncle, you flatter me! These are just some lowly games, I wouldn't dare to show off my skills in front of you! As for my marriage, my parents have other arrangements, so there's no need for you to worry about it!"
This time, it was Mr. Lu's turn to be a little surprised. Everyone in the industry knew how much Li Nianyun liked his son, Lu Ming! In the past, when he jokingly referred to Li Nianyun as his "future daughter-in-law," she would blush shyly.
Why does she look so disdainful when she hears these words now?
What exactly did he miss?
Seeing that Li Nianyun was reluctant to respond, Mr. Lu had no choice but to get straight to the point and state his purpose.
"I know your company can bring you a lot of profit right now! Name your price! Given the relationship between our two families, I'll try my best not to treat you unfairly! As a girl, you should prioritize your family, being a good wife and mother is what you should be doing! Don't get involved in business matters!"
If Li Nianyun hadn't been mindful of the presence of outsiders, she would have almost sneered.
The games this company currently releases generate millions in net profit daily. Not to mention the potential revenue from further development and upgrades!
Now Lu's father wants to acquire this game company, but doesn't want to pay more money. Isn't this blatant bullying of Li Nianyun, a junior?
She's supposed to be a good wife and mother? What era are we living in? She's still playing the old male chauvinism game with me!
In the past, Li Nianyun would have given Lu Ming's father some face out of consideration for Lu Ming. But now, Lu Ming was nothing to her, let alone his father.
Li Nianyun brushed a strand of hair behind her ear and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, Uncle, the company here is doing very well right now, and I have no plans to sell it for the time being! Moreover, I think this company has great potential for development, and I plan to run it well so that it can become my own business in the future. What do you think, Uncle?"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Lu's smile immediately vanished. "So, you're determined to go against the Lu family to the very end? I've been trying to reason with you today, but if you continue to be so stubborn, I'll have to seriously reconsider your relationship with Lu Ming!"
Having been immersed in the business world for many years, Mr. Lu's words carried an imposing aura.
But Li Nianyun had already made up her mind to break ties with Lu Ming, so why would she be afraid of him! Besides, the Li family was quite powerful, which gave Li Nianyun a lot of courage.
"Uncle, what you're saying is a bit off! How does starting a game company mean I'm going against the Lu family? There are plenty of people in the world who want to start a game company. Do you think you can stop them all? Why are you focusing on me? Do you think I'm an easy target because I'm a junior? Besides, you don't need to worry about my relationship with Lu Ming! We're completely innocent now, we have absolutely no relationship!"
After saying this, Li Nianyun ignored Lu's father's expression, picked up her bag, and left.
At this moment, Mr. Lu was furious. Never before had a junior dared to talk back to him like this! Especially since it was a junior who had always been obedient and well-behaved, which made him even angrier!
Moreover, judging from Li Nianyun's words, she conveyed a clear message: she wanted to sever ties with Lu Ming!
He wasn't unaware of Li Nianyun's past feelings for Lu Ming, but judging from Li Nianyun's attitude, something must have happened between them, otherwise she wouldn't treat him like this!
Thinking of this, Mr. Lu angrily drove to the bar where Lu Ming often drowned his sorrows.
Reality did not disappoint Lu's father's expectations; there, he indeed met Lu Ming!
At this moment, Lu Ming was having a great time playing with his stand-in, Luo Jingjing!
Colorful lights shone, and the table was laden with all sorts of expensive drinks. Amidst the cheers of the crowd, Lu Ming even kissed Luo Jingjing.
Luo Jingjing seemed a little embarrassed and lowered her head shyly.
Upon witnessing this scene, Mr. Lu felt his blood rush to his heart. He had been working tirelessly and worrying himself sick over the company lately. And yet, his unfilial son, Lu Ming, was taking his money and still indulging in a life of debauchery!
Without a second thought, filled with rage, Mr. Lu walked up to Lu Ming, grabbed his clothes, and slapped him hard across the face.
Everyone was startled by this sudden turn of events, and for a moment, the entire room fell silent.
Lu Ming looked at his father and covered his face in disbelief.
He didn't understand why his father had slapped him for no reason.
He had joked and played around with others like this before, but his father had never scolded him. His father had also said that it wasn't a big deal for a man to be a little flirtatious! Lu Ming had always believed this, so why was he making such a fuss this time?
Lu's father glared at Lu Ming, almost bursting into a rage on the spot. But seeing the crowd of onlookers, he forced back his anger, uttered a simple "Go home," and turned to leave.
Lu Ming had never seen his father like this before. Of course, Lu Ming dared not disobey his father's orders. At the same time, in order to understand the situation, Lu Ming had no choice but to follow in his father's footsteps.
After the two walked away, only a group of people were left looking at each other in bewilderment!
