My Wandering Swordsman

I was stunned for a long time.

It was Lü Guodong who spoke first.

He said to his aunt, "You must be Ms. Vivi, who spoke to me on the phone yesterday. I've heard so much about you."

My aunt was still in a daze, so she could only nod blankly.

Lu Guodong gave a soft "hmm," leaned back in his chair, and then said, "So? Miss Weiwei and this Boss Ji are old acquaintances, aren't they?"

declarative sentence.

Lü Guodong used a declarative sentence.

It was obvious that he had seen all of my aunt's reactions when she came in. Subconscious reactions can't be faked, and this old fox was already convinced that there was something fishy going on between us.

My aunt opened and closed her lips a few times, probably rehearsing what she was going to say.

I realized this wouldn't work; my aunt knew nothing, and whatever she said would just expose her.

Then, a thought struck me, and I instantly stood up and pressed my aunt into a seat: "Hey, Miss Weiwei, what brings you here? Looking to discuss business with Mr. Lü? Come, come, have a seat!"

My aunt frowned as she listened to my broken Cantonese.

I didn't give her a chance to speak. I looked at Lü Guodong and naturally put my hand on my aunt's shoulder.

"Mr. Lü, it sounds like you haven't met Miss Weiwei yet?"

"Perfect timing, let me introduce you. This is Yu Weiwei, a big star. We've known each other for a long time. Weiwei helped me a lot with my business before."

Lu Guodong's eyes narrowed instantly as he looked at his aunt: "Miss Weiwei is also in this business?"

My aunt had no idea what kind of riddle we were playing, but my two sentences contained a lot of information, and she vaguely guessed the meaning, so she responded in the same vein:

"Yes, Mr. Ji and I have been business partners for a long time. I didn't expect to run into him here."

Lu Guodong nodded with some skepticism, then changed the subject and went straight to me:

"About Ji Sheng and Xiao Qing..."

My forehead was sweating profusely. I thought to myself that I had temporarily dealt with my aunt's matter, but Lu Xiaoqing's matter was really quite troublesome.

Why not just deny it outright?

That's simply unrealistic; the henchmen were right there, it just doesn't make sense.

But if we were to tell the truth...

I rolled my eyes. There was no other way but to act.

"Mr. Lü, it's embarrassing to say, but it's a long story about Brother Xiaoqing. That day, I went to the film set to visit Weiwei, and I got carried away with my acting and asked Weiwei to find me a minor role. We were doing well, but my brother Xiaoqing is a bit uncouth and hurt someone with a whip."

"Using a whip to hurt people?" Lu Guodong asked rhetorically.

I nodded: "Yes, Liu, show your scar to Mr. Lü."

Liu Zi understood immediately, rolled up his sleeves, and showed off the whip scars on his upper arms.

I continued, "My bodyguard has a short temper. When he saw his own family member injured, he didn't care about anything else. He grabbed his weapon and rushed over, which made things difficult for Brother Xiaoqing."

"It was my fault for not disciplining my bodyguard properly. Later, when I visited Brother Xiaoqing in the hospital, I learned that you, Mr. Lü, are also in our business. What do you call it, 'no fight, no friendship,' hahaha."

Upon hearing this, Lü Guodong turned his head to the eldest prince's follower.

The henchman had no idea about these things on set, let alone who we were, so he could only stare blankly.

When Lü Guodong saw that his follower did not directly deny it, his expression relaxed a little.

I quickly pressed my advantage: "Mr. Lü, I was indeed wrong about what happened that day. Young Master Qing was young and impetuous, and I shouldn't have stooped to his level. I will personally come to apologize another day, and I will pay every penny of the medical expenses due."

Lu Guodong stared at me for a while, then suddenly laughed: "So that's how it is! Ji Sheng, this really is a case of the flood washing away the Dragon King's temple! My good-for-nothing son is used to being arrogant outside, it's only right that he learns a lesson. It's alright, it's alright, hahahaha."

I snorted inwardly.

It's alright?

Did you see even a hint of understanding in your eyes? I know exactly what kind of people this family is.

If I hadn't been holding onto over ten thousand videotapes and needed to sell them urgently, that old bastard would probably have detained me on the spot.

However, I remained outwardly calm, smiled, and cupped my hands in a gesture of apology: "Thank you for your understanding, General Lü. I will definitely visit you another day to apologize."

Lu Guodong nodded, then looked at his aunt: "Miss Weiwei, you said you had something important to discuss with me?"

"Yes, but there's no rush." ​​Auntie smiled. "Since you're discussing business, I'll come back later."

"No, no, no." Lü Guodong waved his hand, then suddenly revealed a meaningful smile, "Since we all know each other, let's have lunch together."

My heart skipped a beat.

"Miss Weiwei, why don't you join us? We're in the same business, it'll be easier to talk," Lu Guodong said with a smile.

I wanted to refuse, but Lü Guodong's eyes were fixed on me, clearly indicating he had no intention of letting me go.

"Alright." My aunt glanced at me and agreed with a smile. "It's been a while since I've had dinner with President Ji, so I'll have to trouble President Lü then."

"Okay then."

As he spoke, Lü Guodong stood up, turned around and walked behind his desk. He bent down, opened the drawer on his right, stuffed the documents and materials in, and then locked the drawer.

My pupils contracted.

Quotation.

After doing all this, Lü Guodong straightened up, clapped his hands, and smiled at us, saying, "Let's go, I know a restaurant that's pretty good. It's my treat today."

"Mr. Lü, you're too kind."

I smiled and followed him outside.

As I reached the door, I deliberately lagged behind and whispered to Liu Zi, "Liu Zi, bring back what's in that drawer."

Liu Zi glanced around the room, narrowed his eyes, and nodded.

He's good at stealing.

The group went downstairs and walked to the company entrance.

I turned to the monk and shouted, "Bodyguards, bring the car over here!"

The flower monk paused for a moment, then immediately realized what was happening and made a move to walk to the side of the road.

The aunt immediately understood and said with a smile, "Mr. Ji, please ride in my car. Driving so many cars would be inconvenient, as we'd have to find a place to park later."

I readily agreed, nodded, and turned to Monk Hua and Liu Zi, saying, "Alright, you two go back first, I'll go with Miss Weiwei."

That old fox Lü Guodong wasn't about to let my aunt and me out of his sight. Standing next to his car, he laughed and said, "No need for that. Just ride in my car. It's spacious enough for everyone."

I knew this would be the outcome, so I smiled generously and said, "Okay, then I'll trouble you, Mr. Lü."

After I finished speaking, I winked at my aunt.

The aunt nodded slightly, and the two of them got into Lü Guodong's car one after the other.

The car door closed, and the engine roared to life.

I was sitting in the back seat, and through the rearview mirror, I saw Liu Zi and Hua Heshang standing at the company entrance, watching our car drive away.

Sixty, it's up to you now.

I'm so glad I brought you along.
