The atmosphere in the office was extremely gloomy, and a strong smell of gunpowder filled the entire room.
The woman's eyes were listless and languid as she casually looked at the person in front of her.
Facing the other person's furious and gnashing - teeth look, she had nothing to say. Shen Jianyi turned around and waved her hand behind her. "Mo Yun, see Miss Lin out."
"Yes, Mrs. Lu."
Mo Yun walked up to Lin Zhirou, stretched out his hand towards the door, and said extremely politely, "Miss Lin, this way, please."
Lin Zhirou never expected that after staying in the company for so long, not only had she seen Lu Jinsheng only a few times, but when he finally came back, she was driven out by this woman. Naturally, she couldn't swallow this anger.
She stood there and refused to leave. The woman lifted her chin slightly. "It was Second Master Lu who asked me to come to the company to help. Without the Second Master's order, how can I just leave?"
Hearing this, Shen Jianyi's gaze swept over, filled with hostility. Her voice was cold. "If I remember correctly, you once said that as soon as you left, Jinsheng's father would come back."
Just last night, Lu Ziqian had returned from abroad and was now recuperating in the main building.
As soon as these words were said, Lin Zhirou understood, but she didn't plan to leave so easily.
She walked past Shen Jianyi in a few steps and went straight to the desk. Leaning on the desk with both hands, she asked seriously, "Jinsheng, this is the company. Are you just going to let Shen Jianyi act recklessly?"
As soon as the words were out, Lu Jinsheng looked up. There was nothing but disgust in his eyes. He said expressionlessly, "Do as my wife says."
It seemed that no matter what, Lin Zhirou had to leave now. She clenched her fists and took a few steps back. When passing by Shen Jianyi, she left a harsh word.
"You just wait for me."
She didn't believe that there was no one in this world who could control Shen Jianyi.
Lin Zhirou left the company dejectedly.
After going downstairs, she didn't go home but took a taxi to the main building of the Lu family.
Inside the main building.
At this moment, Lu Ziqian was sitting in a reclining chair, listening to the people beside him explain things. It was nothing more than Lu Yuan telling him about the things in Manduo Sea.
He wanted the merchants who got the chip and the Bai family to shut up forever. Lu Ziqian still didn't know what the secret in the chip was until now.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Lu Yuan went to open the door first and saw Lu Weiran standing at the door. Behind him was a woman in a black suit.
She frowned slightly, but quickly returned to normal. With a smiling face, she asked, "Miss Lin is here?"
The people in the room immediately sat up from their chairs when they heard what she said. Now, if they wanted Shen Jianyi to leave their son's side, they could only count on the woman outside.
Lin Zhirou's appearance at this critical moment must mean no good. He took a deep breath and turned his head to look quietly.
After the two of them came in, Lu Weiran directly sat on the leather sofa, crossing his legs in a cynical manner.
He said boldly, "Uncle, I've investigated the merchants and the Bai family you asked me to look into. It seems that they weren't the ones who got the chip."
"What?" Lu Ziqian obviously didn't understand.
He wasn't in a hurry and patiently explained, "The people I sent followed these two for a long time and found that they've been worried about the chip. Moreover... I also heard a secret."
"What secret?"
As soon as the words were out, Lu Weiran glanced at the others in the room. He immediately understood what it meant and waved his hand. "Yuan'er, take Miss Lin to the living room to sit for a while first. I have something to talk to your cousin about."
"Okay." Lu Yuan left the room obediently.
The moment the door closed, the girl who had been smiling immediately changed her expression. Her cold face was like an iceberg that had lasted for a thousand years.
Lin Zhirou, who was following beside her, felt a chill run down her spine. She took a deep breath and asked with a tingling scalp, "Why are you investigating the merchants and the Bai family?"
Hearing this, when Lu Yuan turned her head again, a smile appeared on her face once more. "I don't know either."
After that, Lin Zhirou didn't find it convenient to ask more. She originally planned to eavesdrop at the door, but was taken away by the girl in front of her.
Inside the room.
Lu Weiran looked serious. He put down his crossed legs and supported his knees with both hands. "Uncle, the ones who got the chip at that time weren't these two at all. Someone was impersonating them and using their invitation letters to attend the auction."
This clue took him a long time to find. When he first learned about it, Lu Weiran couldn't believe it at all. But after following them for so many days, he found that it was actually true.
"So, there's still no accurate information on who has the chip now?" Lu Ziqian stroked his chin. He thought the matter was getting interesting. "Everyone thought the chip was in the hands of the merchants or the Bai family."
If so, all these noble families in the business circle would be eager to take action.
After that, Lu Ziqian wouldn't even need to do anything. There would naturally be people targeting them, and these two families would eventually be doomed.
This was good. It saved Lu Ziqian from wracking his brains to figure out how to perfectly suppress these two families. He lifted his eyelids, and the wrinkles on his face gathered together. "Go and investigate to find out who used their invitation letters to attend the auction."
"Uncle, you're making things difficult for me." Lu Weiran's eyes wandered. "This is beyond my ability."
Lu Weiran was hinting at something. How could an old fox like Lu Ziqian not understand?
Lu Ziqian reached out to pick up the teacup on the table and took a sip. The steam spread in front of his eyes.
The man's voice was low and serious. "Weiran, as long as you help Uncle with this matter, Uncle can help you find out how your father died back then."
Lu Weiran gritted his back teeth. His father's death was still a mystery. Although someone had told him a little bit about it, there was no evidence after all.
Just as the person in front of him had once told him that his father was pushed into the sea by Shen Jianyi, but how could a woman like her deal with a strong man?
Lu Weiran was naturally skeptical, but this matter must have something to do with Shen Jianyi.
"Okay, I agree."
A glint of cunning flashed in Lu Ziqian's eyes. He seemed very satisfied. "Uncle knew long ago that Weiran is a good boy."
"..."
Invisibly, he had already made Lu Weiran hate Shen Jianyi. He wanted to see what this woman would do when everyone tried to stop her from being with Lu Jinsheng.
Lu Ziqian had really gone to great lengths for Lu Jinsheng's marriage.
At this moment, the woman was still completely unaware and was thinking about what excuse she could use to go to Jiahong Factory to find out the truth tonight.
