I have big problems with my superpowers and my relationship

Lu Chen, on the other hand, was a little absent-minded.

Important work?

He now holds 8% of Tongsheng’s shares.

It can even be said that he is the current "boss" of the Lu family.

Considering that Cheng Bei obviously wants to use me to achieve some goals, what other work could be more important than coming to see me?

It can’t be that the rich lady is here.

Confirming the mother-daughter relationship...

Damn, what are you thinking? How is this possible!

Not to mention that the rich young woman didn't seem to intend to delve into the truth. Even if she really suddenly wanted to know who her biological mother was and came to Cheng Bei for confirmation, Butler Li would definitely inform her as soon as possible.

So maybe it's something urgent.

Looking at Guan Li who was explaining seriously, Lu Chen put away his thoughts and focused on the event planning proposal.

At the same time, on the 13th floor above his head, Lu Shuyu was sitting on the sofa in the "President's Office", silently looking at Cheng Bei opposite him.

Obviously, what Lu Chen thought was "impossible" happened.

Inertial thinking can cause great harm to people. In his subconscious mind, he still assumes that the rich girl is the young lady who must be picked up and dropped off by car when she goes out.

But he forgot that the latter had already learned how to take a taxi last night.

So today the rich lady didn't inform Butler Li at all and took a taxi here by herself.

Just five minutes after he and Guan Li entered the meeting room.

In fact, if Lu Chen had delayed a little longer on the road, he might have run into the rich lady.

But there is no point in saying this now.

After all, just a few minutes ago, when he was still thinking about what "tonality" meant, Lu Shuyu and Cheng Bei had already met.

It was obvious that the rich woman suddenly came here not to negotiate with Cheng Bei for the 8% stake.

Then, there is only one purpose...

"That's it..."

She lowered her head slightly, and the hair hanging on the side of her face covered Lu Shuyu's eyes.

The hand that was holding the corner of the clothes clenched tightly, and then slowly loosened.

Her voice was so soft that Cheng Bei, who was only one meter away, could hardly hear it.

Just like the last dead leaf on the tree, it can be blown off by any breeze.

"I see......"

Chapter 400 I don’t hate you

From trying hard to find out the truth.

To deceive oneself like an ostrich.

Then he took the initiative to find Cheng Bei to verify.

In just two days, the rich woman's attitude changed 180 degrees three times.

And the reason for this is not because her will is not strong enough.

Everything happens for a reason.

It can be said that every transformation has a corresponding opportunity.

Just like this time, if Lu Chen hadn't taken her to Suizhou last night, and their relationship hadn't warmed up as a result, Lu Shuyu might have continued to be a coward, trying to maintain the current status quo by covering her ears and stealing the bell.

As long as we don't investigate further, nothing will change.

Yu Lingzhi is still her mother, and she still has a family that "although is currently facing some difficulties, is still happy."

This kind of avoidance is actually very similar to "not going to the hospital when you are sick".

I clearly know that I have a very serious illness, but I refuse to get checked and face the unacceptable result.

To many people, this escape is stupid and meaningless.

But in reality, most people do not have the guts and courage to face life's difficulties.

According to Freud, this is a self-protection mechanism -

People subconsciously use various strategies to reduce psychological conflict and anxiety, and self-deception is a common method.

It is precisely because of the existence of such a mechanism that human beings will not collapse easily, leading to extreme behaviors such as suicide.

Considering that eight out of ten things in life are not satisfactory, if there were no such mechanism, humans would probably have become extinct long ago.

If you think about it this way, escaping itself is not shameful, and there is no need to feel ashamed at all.

After all, we are all the same, and no one is braver than anyone else.

Of course, it is precisely because most people are "cowardly" that the greatness of those who dare to face the hardships of life is highlighted.

Um......

If you are writing an essay at this moment, you should quote a classic saying by the protagonist in "How the Steel Was Tempered", which is "How one's life should be spent."

But since it is not, I won’t write it.

In short, the rich woman’s previous ostrich behavior was reasonable and legal.

At the same time, her bravery today also means that she has “broken through herself” and become a character comparable to Pavel Korchagin.

And the source of courage is of course Lu Chen.

Because of the further development in her relationship with Lu Chen last night, the rich woman was convinced that she had someone she could rely on.

This way, the pain of “losing” my mom is lessened a little.

"No matter what, I still have Lu Chen."

This was the thought that kept repeating in Lu Shuyu's mind before he went to sleep last night.

But at that time she had not decided whether to come to find Cheng Bei.

I made the decision after I woke up this morning and saw the white cake on the table.

While eating the sweet white cake filled with Lu Chen's "love", the rich woman suddenly felt fearless, as if there was nothing in the world that could scare her anymore.

Then I took a taxi directly to Green Vine.

The above is the whole process.

So just because of a breakfast, the little rich woman finally decided to face the truth that she had never dared to face before... To be honest, this is quite in line with the lyrics of Fish Leong:

"I finally made this decision~ I don't care what others say~ I just need your affirmation~"

Just replace "eyes" with "white cake", it's a perfect fit.

This shows that people can really become brave because of another person.

The six-eyed flying fish scored a big point in this wave.

......

......

"A little rain..."

The bright office is very quiet, the sun shines throughout the space, and outside the window are large expanses of blue sky and white clouds.

Because it is on the top floor of the office building, there is no hurried keyboard typing or noisy conversation outside the room. Only the occasional footsteps sound that comes and goes, like an embellishment to the tranquility.

That’s right, even though Lu Shuyu didn’t speak for a long time, Cheng Bei still felt calm.

Although there is still a long way to go to be "calm", at least there is no unacceptable pain.

This seemed a little strange to Cheng Bei.

So after a long silence, she finally said cautiously:

"I know you may not be able to accept it for a while, but mom...I didn't lie to you."

"The reason I didn't tell you was that I thought you were too young, and then I was afraid..."

"Mr. Cheng, you don't have to say this."

Suddenly, Lu Shuyu raised his head and interrupted Cheng Bei.

Her voice was soft, but her tone was steady, and there was a sincerity in her eyes that Cheng Bei had not expected.

"I came here today just to confirm this matter."

"Thank you very much for helping me answer my questions. As for the other matters, I would like to wait for my father to tell me in person."

"You must be very busy. I won't bother you any more."

She stood up and nodded gently to Cheng Bei. The rich young woman maintained a politeness that was inconsistent with the current situation.

Cheng Bei opened her mouth slightly, looking a little helpless.

The word "Ms. Cheng" shows that Lu Shuyu does not recognize her as a mother.

Well, the blood relationship should have been recognized.

But there is no such thing on the level of "family affection".

It can be seen that even though Cheng Bei was the right party in the emotional dispute with Lu Guanghong, the rich woman was still completely inclined towards the latter emotionally.

Even Yu Lingzhi, her "stepmother", holds a much higher position in her heart than Cheng Bei.

Of course Cheng Bei saw all this, but perhaps she had expected it, so this was not the real reason why she was speechless at the moment.

What really made her at a loss for words was Lu Shuyu's current calm attitude.

This calmness, which was not pretended, made Cheng Bei unable to guess the rich woman's real thoughts.

She looked blankly into the eyes of the rich young woman, trying to find a trace of "pretending to be strong" in them.

But what she saw was only a pair of eyes as clear as lake water, and long, slightly curled eyelashes that were very similar to hers.
