But as for the employees who are working overtime, they are basically all listless, either slacking off or dozing off.

Almost no one was working.

When this situation occurs in a company, there are only two possibilities.

1. The employees have collectively awakened and are resisting the exploitation of capitalists in this way.

2. This company is finished.

"Mr. Lu, there have been a lot of rumors about the company recently, which have indeed had some impact on the employees."

Beside him, Secretary Yang did not try to hide anything and smiled helplessly: "Sorry, I made you laugh."

Some influence?

Wow, you are really official.

Why do I feel like everyone has already started thinking about finding a new employer?

Lu Chen curled his lips: "It's a holiday after all, this situation should be normal."

"Well, it's indeed because of the holidays...Mr. Lu, let me take a call."

The cell phone in his hand suddenly rang. Secretary Yang did not walk away, but answered the call in front of Lu Chen.

After saying "yeah, okay" a few times, she turned to look at Lu Chen.

"Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu's meeting has ended."

"Oh, okay, let's go then."

"Please come this way."

"..."

......

Five minutes later, Lu Chen returned to the reception room on the top floor.

He had been walking around the building for less than half an hour, and it was not yet five o'clock.

Lu Guanghong, who said he would only be available after five o'clock, was already waiting for him in the house.

The early end of the meeting and Lu Guanghong's lonely expression at this time undoubtedly proved that the meeting just now did not achieve the results that the latter expected.

Maybe even worse.

"sit down."

The room was very quiet, and the sunlight had dimmed a lot as dusk approached.

Standing by the window of the reception room, Lu Guanghong turned around, nodded reluctantly at Lu Chen, and glanced at Secretary Yang again.

Upon seeing this, the latter immediately lowered his head and left the room.

Soon, the door closed gently, and only Lu Chen and Lu Guanghong were left in the room.

"Did you just walk around the company?"

After about two or three seconds, Lu Guanghong walked to the sofa and sat down, smiling bitterly and shaking his head: "It's quite obvious, isn't it?"

"Ah."

Lu Chen was not polite and sat down opposite him: "It doesn't look very optimistic."

"Well, I won't hide it from you. Tongsheng's situation is very bad right now. Hundreds of people resigned last week alone."

Lu Guanghong poured himself a glass of water and said, "If the current situation continues, I'm afraid I won't be able to see the end of this month."

Sure enough, it was just as I expected.

Or maybe this was fate's arrangement.

After all, if Tongsheng could hold on until next month, Lv Haichuan might not be destined to die this month...

"Uncle Lu, I don't understand business matters."

Lu Chen was silent for a moment. "But I heard about Wan Qing's surgery. They said that a foreign expert team has contacted the Medical University Affiliated Hospital. Thank you."

"...Don't be in a hurry to thank me yet."

Lu Guanghong paused and looked up.

"Xiao Lu, I have an important social event later. Time is limited, so I'll just say it straight."

"Although the password was wrong last time, I still believe you can find the correct password as before."

"If it were before, I could wait."

"But you have seen Tongsheng's current situation. Even I don't know how long I can hold on."

"It could be next week, after the May Day holiday, or even tomorrow that we could enter bankruptcy proceedings."

"And even if I get the things in the safe, it will still take time to use them to save Tongsheng."

“So I just can’t wait any longer.”

"Three days. I can only give you three more days."

"If you can find the password within three days, then no matter what the final outcome of Tongsheng is, I will fulfill all the things I promised before."

"But if you can't figure out the correct password... I think you know what I mean."

Looking at Lu Chen, perhaps considering that the former would most likely become his son-in-law in the future, Lu Guanghong did not say the last half of the sentence.

But the meaning is very clear.

Lu Chen also looked at him and asked calmly:

"Uncle Lu, does this count as an encouragement to me?"

"Incentive? You can understand it that way, or you can take it as a threat."

Lu Guanghong sighed: "Well, I know your relationship with Xiaoyu, and the cost of inviting experts to Yanjiang for surgery is really nothing to me."

"but......"

"Okay, Uncle Lu, I understand."

Suddenly, Lu Chen interrupted Lu Guanghong and said, "So if I can't find the password within three days, the experts will definitely not come, right?"

"......right."

"Okay, then I'll just say it straight."

Sitting up straight, Lu Chen nodded without hesitation in front of Lu Guanghong's instantly surprised gaze.

"Uncle Lu, I actually already know the password."

......

......

On the other side, the nursing home.

The spacious bedroom was very quiet, with only the slight beeping sound of the heart rate monitor echoing in Lu Shuyu's ears.

Zhou Yan and the other two had already left.

But she did not leave, but sat by Lu Haichuan's bed for the whole afternoon.

Looking at Lu Haichuan lying on the bed, Lu Shuyu didn't know why she did this.

There seemed to be no reason, just a sudden urge to spend more time with this old man.

To be honest, the relationship between the little rich woman and Lu Haichuan is not particularly deep.

After all, in the more than ten years when Lu Haichuan was not "stupid", he had been busy with his career, and Lu Shuyu rarely saw him except during the holidays.

But after Lu Haichuan stepped down as chairman of Tongsheng, he suddenly became stupid again.

The improvement of interpersonal relationships mainly depends on getting along and communicating. Obviously, the rich girl can't communicate with someone who doesn't even remember her name.

Therefore, the "grandfather-grandson relationship" between them basically remains at a level that is neither deep nor shallow.

There is definitely family affection, but it doesn't seem to have reached the level of "blood ties".

To put it bluntly, if Lu Haichuan passed away, Lu Shuyu would definitely be very sad and would definitely cry.

But there is definitely no pain like what would happen if Lu Guanghong or Yu Lingzhi left her one day.

This is not the rich woman being "cold-blooded", but human nature.

Even Lu Shuyu himself knows this.

But because of this, she didn't understand what happened to her today.

"grandfather......"

She gently held Lu Haichuan's hand, tears welling up in her eyes for unknown reasons.

Lu Shuyu wiped the corners of her eyes vigorously, trying to calm herself down, but no matter how she controlled herself, the uneasiness and sadness in her heart did not subside at all.

On the contrary, it is getting stronger and stronger.

Gradually, beyond the "beeping" sound of the heart rate monitor, suppressed sobbing sounds were heard in the room.

The painting "The Persistence of Memory" was still hanging on the head of the bed, silently observing everything like a witness.

A deserted beach, frozen water, crooked branches, and endless time and space.

In the painting, a dreamlike ant is slowly crawling along the edge of the twisted clock.

Chapter 235: All options are multiple choice questions of giving up

"what?!"

"What?!"

In the reception room on the top floor of Tongsheng headquarters, Lu Guanghong's eyes were wide open and his tone was rapid and excited.

When Lu Chen said, "Actually, I already know the password," he stood up almost instantly. His heartbeat suddenly quickened, and the muffled "bang bang bang" sound vibrated his eardrums.

Just one sentence made him, a big shot who controlled a listed company with a market value of tens of billions, seem a little out of control.

However, Lu Chen, the "instigator", was still sitting on the sofa, his expression hardly changing at all, he just looked at Lu Guanghong calmly.
