The next day, the news that Shen Jianyi and Lu Jinsheng had been involved in an explosion made the front page of the magazines. And at an appropriate time, Olin announced that there had been a traitor within the company who had deliberately added prohibited substances to the cosmetics, resulting in the excessive mercury content in the autumn new products.
The two events happened one after another, and it was obvious to the public that there must be some connection between them.
Just like this, although the public still had some complaints about Olin, the situation was quickly brought under control.
Olin's autumn new products were re - inspected, and no prohibited ingredients were found.
The autumn new products were able to be put on the market again.
After solving this matter, Shen Jianyi felt much better.
Even the face of Lu Suowei, that old fox, seemed more pleasing to the eye.
"Jianyi, why have you been staring at Uncle all this time?"
At the dinner table, Lu Suowei noticed Shen Jianyi's inquisitive look and put down his chopsticks with a smile.
"Of course it's because I find Uncle kind, so I can't help staring at him."
There was a half - smile on Shen Jianyi's face, but her words made Lu Suowei's expression change slightly.
Had she discovered something?
Lu Suowei stole a glance at Lu Jinsheng from the corner of his eye. Seeing that he showed no expression, just sipping the soup in front of him leisurely and occasionally putting some dishes into Shen Jianyi's bowl, as if he hadn't heard anything.
The two's completely different attitudes made Lu Suowei unable to figure out what they were thinking for a moment.
It was Lu Ziqian who couldn't stand it anymore.
"I don't know how your elders taught you. Who allowed you to stare at your elders all the time during the meal? You have no respect for your elders!"
Lu Ziqian snorted and slammed down his chopsticks.
He really must have been crazy. After learning that Lu Jinsheng had been involved in the explosion, he actually invited Lu Jinsheng to have dinner in the main building.
He knew that this woman, Shen Jianyi, would come along!
She was really a spoilsport!
The other younger generations of the Lu family were extremely frightened. They all stopped eating and couldn't help but look at Shen Jianyi and Lu Ziqian.
The relationship between these two was really like fire and water. If Shen Jianyi was submissive, it would be okay. But she seemed to be a lost cause and simply didn't take Lu Ziqian seriously. There was no sign that she wanted to curry favor with him.
"My parents are long dead. There's nothing I can do. No one taught me."
Shen Jianyi swallowed the food in her mouth slowly and replied lazily.
"You!"
Lu Ziqian's face turned green with anger. He glared at Shen Jianyi fiercely. "Don't think that the matter of Olin is over like this. The Lu Group will never cooperate with Olin. I won't let our Lu Group's reputation be ruined by you."
"Oh, whatever."
Shen Jianyi shrugged nonchalantly.
Her slovenly appearance carried a lazy and casual charm.
Lu Yuan glanced at her and the corner of her lips curled up involuntarily.
If he continued to talk to Shen Jianyi, Lu Ziqian suspected that he would drop dead on the spot. So he simply turned his spearhead towards Lu Jinsheng.
"What did the police say about the explosion? Was it aimed at Shen Jianyi and you were accidentally involved?"
Lu Jinsheng picked up a napkin and gracefully wiped the corner of his lips. His cold eyes looked at Lu Ziqian.
"Yi Yi's matter is my matter. Your opposition to the cooperation case between the Lu Group and Olin is of no use."
"You unfilial son! Do you want to piss me off?"
Lu Ziqian flew into a rage and threw the chopsticks in his hand directly at Lu Jinsheng.
Everyone's hearts were in their throats.
But the next second, they were all stunned.
A small, fair hand reached out in front of Lu Jinsheng and firmly caught the flying chopsticks.
Shen Jianyi frowned, threw down the chopsticks in her hand, and picked up a napkin to wipe her hands.
"It seems that you haven't learned much about table etiquette either."
Before Lu Ziqian could get angry again, Lu Suowei stood up to smooth things over.
"Alright, Jinsheng, Jianyi, don't be too angry with your father. He's just concerned about you and afraid that you'll encounter danger."
Lu Suowei looked amiable and happy. "Is there no news at all about the explosion? The world is so chaotic these days. The gangsters actually dared to commit crimes in broad daylight. Jinsheng, I think you should bring more bodyguards with you when you go out. And Jianyi, you should also be extra careful when you travel."
"Yes, Uncle is right."
Lu Jinsheng didn't say a word, but Shen Jianyi nodded obediently, which was completely different from her attitude towards Lu Ziqian.
She seemed very touched by Lu Suowei's concern. Her big, watery eyes stared at Lu Suowei without blinking: "Uncle is so good to us. If Dad could be as concerned about us as you are, that would be great."
I have to say that Shen Jianyi's charming yet innocent appearance would make anyone's heart flutter.
Lu Suowei looked at her in surprise.
What on earth was this woman up to?
Wasn't she clearly trying to create a rift between him and Lu Ziqian by saying such things?!
"Uncle, why don't you say anything? Do you also think so?"
Shen Jianyi said.
Lu Suowei: "..."
There was an embarrassed smile on his face. He glanced at Lu Ziqian and found that his face was extremely gloomy.
After returning to the villa, Shen Jianyi couldn't hold back her laughter anymore.
"Did you see Lu Suowei's expression? I feel that he wanted to swallow me alive."
"I'm afraid he'll do something bad to you." Lu Jinsheng was still a little worried. "Lu Suowei seems approachable, but in fact, he's very calculating. I'm not afraid of what he'll do openly, but I can't rule out the possibility that he'll play some dirty tricks behind our backs."
"Don't worry. I'm much more powerful than you think."
Shen Jianyi said casually.
It wasn't that she didn't take Lu Jinsheng's words to heart. It was just that now that she knew who was behind all this, the rest would be much easier to handle.
Just as they were talking, Sister Gu's anxious voice came from outside the door.
"Madam, Miss Xia is here. She said she couldn't get in touch with you and has something very important to talk to you about."
Xia Liang?
She had just gone to the main building for dinner, so she hadn't brought her phone.
She never thought that Xia Liang would contact her at this time.
Putting on her coat, Shen Jianyi rushed to the living room in a hurry.
Sure enough, Xia Liang was there.
As soon as she saw Shen Jianyi, she burst into tears and hugged her tightly.
"Master, what should I do?"
"What's wrong?"
"The medicine you gave me. I gave it to Grandpa, but not long after he took it, he fainted and hasn't woken up until now."
Xia Liang's eyes were red.
Shen Jianyi had never seen her like this before. Even when she was frustrated during the training in the organization, the little girl just held back her tears and continued training.
"What exactly happened?"
After the little girl stopped crying, Shen Jianyi asked in a deep voice.
"I don't know either. I gave Grandpa the medicine you gave me. At first, he was still talking to me normally and telling me not to worry. Then, after dinner, he fainted and hasn't woken up until now."
