Quick Transmigration: The Divine-Looking Host is Always Pampered by a Powerful Boss

After a few days of vacation, Lu Tingzhou returned to the Lu Group early in the morning. His assistant, Yan, almost cried when he saw him: "Mr. Lu, you're finally back!"

He then began to speak rapidly, selecting the most important points from the past few days' work and reporting them to Lu Tingzhou.

After going through the story in his mind, Lu Tingzhou suddenly stopped as he was about to leave, turning slightly to ask, "How did you and your girlfriend get together?"

Assistant Yan: "...We broke up a few months ago on May 520th."

"Oh, BE is not a reliable source of information." Lu Tingzhou glanced at him, seemingly disappointed, and without saying anything more, pushed open the office door and went inside.

Assistant Yan: "???"

He felt like a dog that had been kicked for no reason while passing by.

After returning from his vacation, Lu Tingzhou exuded an aura of attracting a female admirer, and several of his sharp-eyed friends noticed this.

The three of them secretly discussed the matter in a small group chat, trying to pry out the source of Lu Tingzhou's unusual behavior from Assistant Yan.

"Hey, what did I tell you? No one can resist Shen Chuzhuo's gentleness." Han Xulei, who had also been helped by Shen Chuzhuo, narrowed his eyes and smiled maliciously.

When he mentioned Shen Chuzhuo to Lu Tingzhou, the other party clearly didn't take it to heart, and even said that only when one's own abilities are insufficient will one give others the opportunity to help.

Lu Tingzhou, a career fanatic with the brains and methods to his name, would never understand the feeling of being dragged out of the mud. Now that he has actually been defeated by Shen Chuzhuo, he has to have a good laugh.

Han Xulei and his two companions arranged a time when they were all free, and went to Lu's company to surprise Lu Tingzhou just before they were about to leave work. Since they were already there, they couldn't just turn them away, so Lu Tingzhou had his assistant book a private room.

After ordering, Lu Tingzhou rolled up his sleeves, revealing a seashell bracelet on his wrist.

The beads, about the size of a fingernail, were densely strung together, bright, and exquisite. They were clearly meticulously polished, which clashed with Lu Tingzhou's overall aura and instantly attracted the attention of others.

"Tingzhou, where did you get your bracelet custom-made? Why are you wearing such childish things?" Bai Han complained.

Lu Tingzhou lifted his eyelids slightly: "Only single people would think this is childish."

Bai Han: "..."

Han Xulei said thoughtfully, "You're so skillful. Did your sister-in-law make this herself?"

Lu Tingzhou gave him a knowing look, but still corrected him, "We're still chasing them."

Learning from online resources wasn't in vain; during this time, Lu Tingzhou and Chu Zhuo's relationship grew much closer.

So he's already showing off before he's even caught up. If he actually catches up, won't he be making a big fuss about it all over the world?

Zuo Yang couldn't stand his smug look and commented quickly, "Congratulations, the old man has finally found someone."

Lu Tingzhou didn't take his sharp tongue to heart: "That's because someone wants him."

Bai Han, who has never been in a relationship among the four, said, "..." I've said enough.

"Look how wronged our little Bai is." Han Xulei joined the fray, exaggeratedly rubbing his forehead as if recalling something. "I vaguely remember, who was it that said they were incompetent and needed help from others? I said Shen Chuzhuo, and you said I was love-struck. Who's the love-struck one here?"

Lu Tingzhou: "...It's me."

Bai Han laughed out loud without any politeness: "Haha."

The waiters served the dishes one after another. The four adult men had big appetites and finished all seven dishes plus a bowl of mushroom and three-delicacy chicken soup.

After enough joking around before the meal, it was time to have heartfelt conversations afterward. Since everyone had driven off, they drank tea instead of wine.

"Mr. Lu, we've known each other for over ten years. Congratulations on finding your other half." Zuo Yang finished speaking and downed his drink in one gulp, as if he were drinking wine himself.

"Tingzhou, I sincerely wish you a long and happy marriage." Han Xulei raised his glass.

Bai Han took a deep breath: "Saying more would be repetitive. My blessings are all in this glass of wine—no, this glass of tea."

Lu Tingzhou nodded slightly: "Yes."

Back at his residence, Lu Tingzhou took a shower and came out wearing a bathrobe. His phone notified him that his grandfather had called, and he pressed his thumb to call back the missed call.

"You brat, why didn't you answer my calls?" Old Master Lu's cursing voice came through the phone.

"I'm taking a shower," Lu Tingzhou explained.

"Hmph, why don't you bring your girlfriend back for me to see?" Old Master Lu asked.

"Where would I get a girlfriend?" Lu Tingzhou easily guessed who had snitched. "Lu Yan told you?"

Grandpa Lu: "It doesn't matter who said it. Look at you, you're already in your thirties. In a few years, when you're forty, will anyone still want you?"

Lu Tingzhou had no choice but to stop hiding it, since Chu Zhuo would only end up with him anyway: "Dad, I'm only thirty-one, don't make it sound like I'm thirty-five or thirty-six. Besides, he's not my girlfriend, he's a guy."

Old Master Lu was stunned.

Lu Tingzhou showed no signs of dating after the age of twenty-nine. He refused to go on blind dates, and his feigned illness failed him. He had become indifferent to the matter and even thought that he would accept Lu Tingzhou marrying a man.

She actually found a guy?

After a long silence, Lu Tingzhou frowned. "Dad, I've only ever loved Chu Zhuo in my life. Your son is just that stubborn; once he's made up his mind, he can't change it. If you don't agree..."

"Go away, I've only been silent for a little while, and you're already accusing me of something. When did I say I disagreed?" Old Master Lu said angrily. "What's wrong? You've never shown any inclination towards this before. You didn't give me any warning, and suddenly you say the person you like is a man. Can't I even be a little shocked?"

Lu Tingzhou paused for a moment, then honestly said, "Please continue."

Seeing that things were going well, Old Master Lu decided to stop and then addressed the real reason for the call: "A daughter-in-law is still a daughter-in-law. When are you going to bring her to meet me?"

Lu Tingzhou remained silent.

No one knows a son better than his father. After feeding him twice, Old Master Lu understood: "You rascal, you haven't caught up yet, have you?"

"Now that you're already holding Lu Yan, your grandson, there's no way you can pressure us to have another child," Lu Tingzhou said calmly.

Grandpa Lu rolled his eyes: "Am I pressuring you to have a grandson? I'm pressuring my daughter-in-law, oh wait, I mean, my son-in-law?"

"Fine, you know what I mean. The form of address doesn't matter. Lu Tingzhou, are you even capable? You're so hesitant to pursue someone. Your mother and I met and got married less than a month after we got married, and your brother was born the following year."

Lu Tingzhou: "...Yes, Mom also said that you snatched it back back then, you were really fast."

Grandpa Lu's expression turned unnatural: "Ahem, why would she tell you even this? I only acted because I was sure she had feelings for me. If you don't believe me, ask your mother. I was one of the most handsome young men of my age back then. It's normal for your mother to like me."

Lu Tingzhou's calm demeanor carried a hint of threat: "Is that so? I'll ask my mom another day, or how about today? I'll come back now."

"Oh, there's no need to bring up our private conversation," Old Master Lu hurriedly interrupted.

Looking at the disconnected call, Lu Tingzhou smiled smugly and turned to call Chu Zhuo, but the other end was busy.

His lips were pursed, and he wasn't laughing.

Unlike the gloomy atmosphere on Lu Tingzhou's side, Chu Zhuo received a call from Shi An, saying that Qi Yu wanted to see someone.

Shi An: "Mr. Shen, if you have time, could you come with me?"

Not long ago, Qi Yu was detained by the police on suspicion of commercial fraud. While they were still searching for key evidence, his former assistant, who had resigned, handed over more incriminating evidence. After the police verified the evidence, the case was directly classified as a criminal case.

Shi An was also one of the victims.

Qi Yu was very uncooperative. The lawyer said he wanted to see Shi An, otherwise he wouldn't say a word.

The case is quite complex and involves a gambling industry chain. It would be best if we could get Qi Yu to talk, so as not to waste time and energy.

Of course, the message from the police station was not mandatory; they could refuse.

Chu Zhuo originally planned to go to the court hearing on the day of the trial so that he could see Qi Yu, that scumbag, being sentenced. Now, it wouldn't hurt to see him beforehand.

"Okay," Chu Zhuo said. "Did they say which day? I'll pick you up in the morning."

Shi An gave a time, paused slightly, and said, "Mr. Shen, thank you. You must be my lucky star."

The unease that had been creeping into his heart since the police told him that Qi Yu wanted to see him was now soothed by Chu Zhuo.
