Huayu: Live a carefree life

"Oh, it's official?"

"Yeah, just make it official." Lu Jie pointed to the trending topics on social media, including the photo of Xiao Hu jumping into his arms at the entrance of the Central Academy of Drama, and the comments digging up his identity. "Look, they've already dug up my identity."

Hu Lianxin took a closer look and indeed it was so.

"I recognize this man; he's Lu Jie, the founder of Lingmeng Mobility and Lingdong Cycling."

"Judging from the information, she's only 23 years old, and she graduated from Tsinghua University... What the heck? Reimu Mobility, founded during her freshman summer vacation? Is that the Reimu Mobility I use every day?"

"This guy is quite tall, around 185cm by my guess, and he's got some looks and a decent build. It's just that his taste is a bit questionable. Meng Ziyi, that nobody, is one thing, but this Central Academy of Drama beauty... uh, a beauty queen, oh, that's fine then. The problem is that I'm questioning the aesthetics of internet capitalists."

"It seems this person hasn't registered with Dayanzai (a ride-hailing platform); searching for him only yields two official accounts, Lingmeng Travel and Lingdong Cycling, which mention his name most frequently."

Is it strange that such a big shot hasn't registered with BigEyes?

After reading the comments for a while, Xiao Hu suddenly asked out of the blue, "Brother, who do you think is prettier, me or that Meng Ziyi?"

"Of course, my Xiao Hu is prettier. Meng... Meng Ziyi is pretty too, but she's not as lively and playful as you, not as considerate and gentle as you, not as..."

Xiao Hu interrupted Lu Jie's flattery with a grin, "Alright, alright, you stinky brother, stop listing the dishes. I was just asking. You're just trying to make me happy~"

"Hey, isn't it a boyfriend's duty to make his girlfriend happy?" Lu Jie picked up the light-footed Hu Lianxin and carried her back to the restaurant. "Are you full? What a pity about the soft-boiled egg~"

"Oh, this is the first time you've made a soft-boiled egg, brother~" Xiao Hu scooped some into his mouth with a spoon, then scooped another spoonful and brought it to Lu Jie's lips. "Even though it's cold, it's not fishy, ​​you can eat it. Open your mouth, brother, ah~"

"Ah~ Just taste it, it's best not to eat too much of it since it's half-cooked and cold." Lu Jie stopped Xiao Hu from eating more. "Your period is probably coming soon. If you eat too much cold food, you'll be sweating profusely and rolling around in pain, and I'll be the one who feels sorry for you."

Xiao Hu felt incredibly warm inside, thinking about how Lu Jie had remembered her brief mention of her period coming up after washing up last night. "Hehe, my brother is so good to me~"

"There's no need to keep emphasizing that you're my girlfriend, that we like each other, and that we care about each other. It's all normal." Lu Jie said, glancing at his phone casually. "Xinbao, tidy up the table. I'm going to the study to take care of something."

Xiao Hu, unsuspecting, said, "Don't worry, brother, I can still do this chores. Go ahead and do your thing."

…………

Upon entering the study, Lu Jie's first task was to put out the fire, specifically Liu Haocun's fire.

Cun: You big bad guy are really busy (disdain). You just got back to the capital and you're already trending on social media with two beautiful women. So this is what your busy work is like? Others are busy with countless affairs of state, but you're busy with countless women, huh? (disdain)

Lu: That's not true! I have business dealings with Meng Ziyi's parents, so...and so...

Save: If you don't listen or believe me, ignore me.gif

Fortunately, Liu Haocun was just being sarcastic and throwing a little tantrum, which reassured Lu Jie a lot.

Chen Yao and Wang Churan both knew Xiao Hu's place in their hearts, and the messages they sent were all teasing.

This unexpected incident further solidified Lu Jie's determination to openly and honestly be a scumbag.

After resolving the internal conflict, Lu Jie put on a cold face and held a video conference with his assistant Xiao Wu, the head of the technology department, the head of the public relations department, and the head of the legal department to arrange a response strategy.

Wu Bin, the head of the technical department, is Lu Jie's senior from Shuimu, and one of the few experts who have worked with him since Lingmeng Travel and are still going strong.

Wu Bin's hacking skills were as strong as his execution ability. He quickly led his men to find the source of the online trolls and then used hacking techniques to expose the mastermind behind hiring the trolls.

The mastermind behind it all is a team led by a third-tier female celebrity. Lu Jie had never heard of her and had no connection with her, so it could only be that she was targeting Meng Ziyi.

Another interesting person who fueled the flames and dragged Hu Lianxin into the mess was actually one of Zhang Rongrong's assistants.

Zhang Rongrong? Lu Jie thought for a while before he remembered that it was because of "Spirit Sword Mountain". It seemed that he had stolen the female lead role that was originally intended for her.

The opponent has been found; the next step is to crush them.

Lu Jie first sent a message to Sister Qian, sending her the name of the third-tier female celebrity and asking if Meng Ziyi had any conflict with her.

Then she called Sun Zhonghuai and said, "Mr. Sun, I'm sorry to disturb your rest."

"It's nothing, it's nothing. I haven't had a chance to rest. I was just about to go to a meeting. Brother Lu, is there something you need?"

"Then I'll get straight to the point, brother. So...so..." Lu Jie briefly explained the situation. "Brother, my request is to replace the production team of 'Spirit Sword Mountain,' and Lingjie Entertainment will acknowledge all the losses incurred."

Lingjie Entertainment Investment is a second-tier investment company wholly owned by Lu Jie through Lingjie Capital after he entered the entertainment industry.

"Easy, easy, it's certainly annoying when something like this happens." Sun Zhonghuai chuckled after hearing the joke. "Brother, you're acting rashly for a woman! If I remember correctly, Hu Lianxin is indeed your girlfriend, right?"

"Brother Sun, stop laughing at me and help me get revenge."

"Haha, no problem at all. I'll instruct Han Zijie to replace him right away." Sun Zhonghuai paused for a moment, then asked, "Xiao Lu, what level of achievement do you hope to reach?"

"On a public level, this is a warning that the cooperation is terminated, but we can continue to cooperate if there is an opportunity in the future." Lu Jie had already prepared his plan. "On a private level, Zhang Rongrong can go back to Taiwan to develop her career. I'll also give President Gong of Kiwi a heads-up later. I'll ask someone to talk to Pants about it; it should be fine."

Sun Zhonghuai was very satisfied with Lu Jie's handling of the situation, feeling that the young man had handled it quite rationally, no wonder Brother Ma valued him.

As for Zhang Rongrong, she's just a minor actress in her thirties. So what if she's blacklisted? It's not a big deal.

He didn't chat with Sun Zhonghuai for long; after exchanging a few pleasantries, he hung up the phone.

…………

Lu Jie opened WeChat and saw Meng Ziyi's friend request. He accepted it without hesitation, and a message came from her soon after.

Meng: Hello Mr. Lu, I know the person you sent this to. She's a bit mentally unstable. She tried to audition for the female lead in "The Untamed" through connections, but I had already decided on the role of Wen Qing, so of course she didn't get the part. So she hired online trolls to smear me.

Meng: My company initially gave it the cold shoulder, but I never expected this person to keep harping on it.

Meng: I'm so sorry to have implicated Mr. Lu and your girlfriend!

Lu: Once we've clarified things, it's clear that Mengmeng, you're a victim too, aren't you? You're from Yuekai, right? What does Jia Shikai plan to do? Will he just ignore it?

Meng: Mr. Jia said that it's best to handle this kind of thing quietly, what do you think...?

Lu: Okay, then my PR and legal departments will remain unchanged.

Lu Jie didn't dwell on it or try to distance himself from Meng Ziyi, especially after she added him on WeChat.

If I was a little embarrassed to test drive someone else's daughter before because of my relationship with Sister Qian, I have no such concerns now.
