So, the rich lady couldn't sleep the whole night last night.
Hiding in the quilt, she heard Lu Chen and Xia Yunian coming back together, heard the sound of water in the bathroom, and heard the chirping of insects outside the window.
She wanted to ask Lu Chen where the letter came from and whether Xiaoyu in the letter was herself.
But she didn't dare.
After all, if all this was just a story that had nothing to do with her, then Lu Chen would know about her peeking at the computer.
Even though she's my girlfriend, this behavior is really annoying.
Because of his good upbringing, Lu Shuyu has a stronger sense of shame and guilt than most people when it comes to things like "spying on other people's privacy."
So she didn't dare to ask Lu Chen directly.
As for Yu Lingzhi...that's even more impossible.
"Mom, am I your biological child?"
If I ask this suddenly without being sure, my mother will definitely be very sad.
She didn't dare to ask Lu Chen, nor did she dare to ask Yu Lingzhi... Last night, the rich girl just lay on the bed in a daze. You can imagine how conflicted and complicated she felt. She regretted so much why she opened that document.
Even though I clearly heard Lu Chen getting up this morning, I didn't dare to go out.
Fortunately, not long after Lu Chen left, she finally thought of a way to confirm it.
Then come and ask Butler Li.
But the young rich woman did not call to ask directly, but asked Butler Li to take her to Yanhu Villa.
From this point it is not difficult to see that Lu Shuyu is actually very smart.
She understood that if Butler Li really knew the inside story, he would definitely not tell the truth easily and would definitely continue to hide it from her like before.
That's why she acted as if "I already knew everything" in an attempt to put pressure on Butler Li in this way.
And Butler Li was almost deceived by her.
Butler Li's hesitation and duplicity just now made Lu Shuyu almost certain that she was the "Xiao Yu" in the letter.
But just before her emotions were about to collapse, Butler Li suddenly gave a negative answer.
So... am I overthinking it?
"I see."
After a moment of silence, Lu Shuyu lowered his head and said, "Uncle Li, please go out first."
"Miss, you...you must not be affected by these rumors!"
"Yeah, I understand."
"That's good. I'll go out first. You can call me anytime if you need anything..."
Standing up, Butler Li looked at the young rich woman with concern, then walked out of the bedroom hesitantly.
No matter how you look at it, he is a loyal servant who is worried that his mistress will be exploited by bad people.
I have to say that Butler Li's response was pretty good. Although there were some mistakes at the beginning, he managed to make up for it in the end.
But this still made him feel scared.
At the same time, I was very confused.
what happened?
Why did the lady suddenly doubt her own identity?
What did Mr. Lu say?
But if Mr. Lu had already told the young lady the truth, why would the young lady come to ask him?
Mr. Lu also suggested that the young lady should not be told that she was an illegitimate daughter for the time being...
He looked back at the rich lady and closed the door silently.
Standing in the corridor, Butler Li hesitated for a moment, then quickly walked towards a room at the other end of the corridor.
After entering the room and closing the door, he immediately dialed Lu Chen's number, wanting to inform him of the situation here.
But Lu Chen didn't answer.
Butler Li frowned and hit him several times in a row.
But every time the call was automatically hung up when the time was up, it proved that Lu Chen's phone was either not with him or was turned to silent mode.
So Butler Li had to give up for the time being and quickly went back to wait outside Lu Shuyu's bedroom to avoid being discovered.
I stood in the corridor waiting silently for a few minutes, wondering where the news had leaked. Then I heard the rich woman's voice from inside the room.
"Uncle Li, come in for a moment."
......
......
"It was indeed arranged by Ms. Cheng, but I don't know why she asked you to plan this event."
In the well-lit office, Hu Shuo was watering a potted plant with a small watering can.
Lu Chen was sitting next to his desk, not noticing that the phone in his pocket had been on for quite some time.
He always turned his phone to silent mode during class, and he never got rid of this bad habit.
If you stay in society for a few more years and understand the role of the "vibration" function, perhaps many things will be different in the future.
But at least for now, Lu Chen still knew nothing about everything, and still complained to Hu Shuo with a depressed look on his face:
"Boss Hu, I don't know anything. Isn't this asking too much of me?"
"Oh, didn't we ask the Creative Department to cooperate with you? You just need to come up with a simple plan, and the rest of the Creative Department will perfect it."
"But the other people in our group also have opinions."
"This is even easier. Tell them that after this event is over, everyone's level will be upgraded by one level."
All upgraded to one level?
My goodness, I seem to have seen the three of them being ecstatic.
"Okay, then I'll try..."
Shaking his head, Lu Chen planned to leave as he didn't get any useful information from Hu Shuo.
However, Hu Shuo suddenly put down the spray bottle and looked back.
"How was your conversation with Mr. Cheng yesterday?"
"pretty good."
A small profit of one million... Lu Chen answered truthfully: "The price Mr. Cheng gave is very fair."
"What about you? Are you still planning to reconsider it?"
"Well, there is still some time after all. I want to wait and see if there is any improvement at Tongsheng."
"It's okay to wait, but let's decide it as soon as possible."
As expected, Hu Shuo kindly reminded:
"This is not just playing house. If things go wrong, hundreds of millions of dollars will be wasted."
“Although there are still three weeks left before the deadline given by the CSRC, Mr. Cheng’s attitude may not change.”
What do you mean?
Cheng Bei doesn’t want the little rich woman’s shares anymore?
That's unless she doesn't recognize this daughter.
Lu Chen didn't say anything on the surface, but he didn't care about it in his heart.
"Yes, I understand."
"It's good that you understand. I'm just reminding you. I won't say more."
"Okay, Mr. Hu, I'll leave first then?"
"Let's go."
"..."
Soon, Lu Chen came out of Hu Shuo's office.
After saying hello to Assistant Sun outside, he took the elevator back to the business development department's office area, took out his cell phone and glanced at it as he walked.
Ok?
6 missed calls?
......
"Miss, what's wrong?"
On the other side, when Butler Li pushed the door open and entered the room, the rich young lady was still sitting by the window.
"Nothing, I just forgot to charge my phone last night."
Turning around, Lu Shuyu smiled and put her phone on the table: "So I want to borrow your phone to call Lu Chen."
"Ah good."
Butler Li subconsciously took out his cell phone and handed it over, but the next second he felt something was wrong.
But at this time the phone had already fallen into the hands of the rich woman.
Then, Butler Li understood why he felt something was wrong.
Because when Lu Shuyu clicked on the call icon, the most recent call records were clearly displayed above the default numeric keypad.
And the six calls to Lu Chen appeared nakedly in the first row!
"...Uncle Li, did you call Lu Chen just now?"
Lu Shuyu's fingers seemed to tremble for a moment, and after a few seconds he raised his head silently:
"Why did you call so many times? Is there something urgent?"
