When Lu Chuanbai followed Gu Anrou to the destination, he found that Old Master Song didn't show up. Instead, it was Song Haoran, the grandson of the Song family.
Lu Chuanbai frowned immediately. There was dissatisfaction in his eyes as he looked at Gu Anrou. "Didn't you say you were going to make an appointment with Old Master Song? Why is it Song Haoran who shows up?"
Hearing this, Song Haoran was a bit unhappy. He slightly raised his eyes, crossed his legs, and looked at Lu Chuanbai disdainfully. "If you want to cooperate with our family's old master, you have to talk to me first. We're of the same generation. Come on, Lu Chuanbai. Do you look down on me?"
Lu Chuanbai gave a cold snort. "Do I need to remind you of your playboy image in the circle? Don't you have any self - awareness? If I were you, I'd have the sense to leave here right away."
Song Haoran slammed the dishes on the table at once and roared, "Gu Anrou, it was you who begged me to come and meet him. What's his attitude now? What, doesn't he want to cooperate with our Song family anymore?"
"Do you know that the land for the resort you're planning to build is in the hands of our Song family? Without our consent, you can't develop it at all. Lu Chuanbai, I advise you to think carefully. You have to bow your head when under someone else's roof."
Since childhood, Lu Chuanbai had been the so - called "other people's child" in parents' mouths. Song Haoran had always been outshone by him. It was not until Lu Chuanbai's legs were disabled that he got a chance to swagger for a while. But unexpectedly, this disabled man had managed to stand up with great determination. As a result, Lu Chuanbai worked even harder, and the pressure on Song Haoran became even greater.
Now, finally, there was a situation where Lu Chuanbai needed the help of the Song family. As soon as he got this news, Song Haoran contacted Gu Anrou without informing his grandfather. He came directly to meet Lu Chuanbai.
Originally, according to Song Haoran's plan, he wanted to humiliate Lu Chuanbai for a while and then still proceed with the cooperation, because the benefits brought by this resort were extremely huge.
But he didn't expect that even when in need of others, Lu Chuanbai still showed such disdain for him.
Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, Gu Anrou quickly spoke in a soft voice, "Brother Chuanbai, now Haoran is also working hard to make progress. He took the initiative to seize this opportunity. You can talk to him first. After you two sides finalize the specific cooperation details, it's the same to show them to Grandpa Song later."
Lu Chuanbai said with a cold face, "I have nothing to say to a useless person."
Song Haoran got angry on the spot and slapped the table as he stood up. "Lu Chuanbai, who are you calling useless?"
"There are only three people here including me. Do I need to emphasize who the useless person is?"
"When you were 16, you accidentally injured a passer - by while street racing. It was your family's old master who spent money and effort to cover it up for you."
"When you were 18, you got into a gang fight in a bar. It was also your family's old master who found someone to deal with it for you."
"If it weren't for the old master wiping your ass all these years, you would have made the news many times for all the disgraceful things you've done."
As Lu Chuanbai listed out the things Song Haoran had done over the years one by one, Song Haoran's anger reached its peak. Unable to argue with Lu Chuanbai, he pointed at Gu Anrou and scolded, "This is the person you found for me, Gu Anrou. Do you deliberately want to humiliate me?"
Gu Anrou felt wronged at the moment and couldn't help trying to smooth things over. "Stop arguing, you two. Those are all things in the past. Can't you two get along well in the future?"
Lu Chuanbai turned around. "There's no need to get along with a useless person like him. Don't arrange a meeting for me if it's not Old Master Song next time."
Lu Chuanbai walked out directly. At this moment, part of his anger was because he had temporarily put aside the matter of Xu Qingqing just to keep the appointment with Old Master Song.
But he didn't expect that Gu Anrou didn't manage to invite Old Master Song but instead invited the useless Song Haoran.
So Lu Chuanbai could no longer hold back his temper and vented it all on Song Haoran.
Meanwhile, in the hospital, Lu Fenglin was sitting next to Xu Qingqing and didn't forget to speak ill of Lu Chuanbai.
"My elder brother is good at everything, but there's one thing not so good. He always values interests very highly. Things like human feelings, family affection, friendship, and love are not worth mentioning in front of interests."
"Everyone says he's a successful entrepreneur and the pride of the Lu Group. But the more someone gives their true heart to him, the more tired and heart - broken they will feel."
"Miss Xu, do you have this feeling now?"
Xu Qingqing was drinking porridge. Hearing Lu Fenglin's words, she didn't even raise her eyes.
"I'm not interested in the affairs of your Lu family, nor in Lu Chuanbai. Thank you for taking care of Yiyi yesterday. If you have nothing else to do, please go back first."
Lu Fenglin slightly raised his eyebrows and said with a bitter smile, "Miss Xu, you're being a bit ungrateful. Besides, with my elder brother around, what can I do? He takes care of all the big and small matters in the company. There's nothing he can't handle."
At this time, Xu An'an also woke up. Xu Qingqing immediately sat down by the bed and asked in surprise, "An'an, how do you feel now? Do you still feel uncomfortable?"
Xu An'an shook her head obediently. "I don't feel uncomfortable. Mommy, where is Uncle Lu? An'an remembers that Uncle Lu took care of me all day yesterday and even put a towel on my forehead. Where is Uncle Lu, Mommy?"
Hearing Xu An'an's words, Xu Qingqing averted her eyes and didn't look at her daughter. She casually made up an excuse. "Your Uncle Lu runs a company. He's very busy at home. How could he have the time to always take care of you? But it was really Uncle Lu who sent you to the hospital yesterday. How about we go to thank Uncle Lu together when you get better?"
"Okay."
Seeing her younger sister wake up, Xu Yiyi walked over and said in a tone like a little adult, "I've always told you to exercise more, but you didn't listen. Now look, we both just came back from abroad. I didn't get a fever, but you did. It must be because you're in poor health."
Xu An'an pouted unhappily. "It's not. It's just because I'm a girl. It's normal for me to be a bit weaker. You're a man, brother. How can you compare with me?"
Hearing this, Lu Fenglin touched Xu An'an's head. "Well, get better quickly. Then Uncle will take you to the amusement park. How about that?"
Xu Yan slapped his hand away. "I, as her uncle, will take her there. You don't need to."
Hearing Lu Fenglin's words, Xu An'an was just about to happily agree. But after hearing Xu Yan's words, she rolled her eyes, tilted her head slightly, and asked, "Can't Uncle and Uncle Yan go together?"
"Can Uncle Lu Chuanbai go too?"
