Lu Yuan glanced at Lu Jin without batting an eyelid, but Lu Jin lowered his head. He no longer had the smug attitude he had just now.
Gu Nianzhi was still hesitating. "President Lu, do you think I should go? Young Master He said he would invite me to dance with him and publicly announce that he would recognize me as his sister. "
"… Huh?!" Lu Jin suddenly raised his head, his eyes even rounder than Gu Nianzhi's. "… Do, do, do what?!"
"Sister …" Gu Nianzhi looked at Lu Jin in confusion, then at Lu Yuan. She said resentfully, "Actually, when we were over there, Young Master He had already said once that he wanted to treat me as his sister … but after we came here, he changed his mind."
Lu Yuan smiled knowingly and said gently, "That's not surprising. Our Nianzhi is so good, who wouldn't like her? This means that he hasn't given up on liking you. He had no choice but to give in to her over there. When he got here, he didn't … Your fiancé would naturally have other thoughts. "
Gu Nianzhi had been trained by Lu Jin to be much more thick-skinned recently. She could remain calm in the face of overwhelming praise and praise.
However, when Lu Yuan said it casually, she suddenly blushed and tried her best to resist the urge to cover her face. Gu Nianzhi was embarrassed and modest. "… President Lu is exaggerating. I'm not that good …"
She thought silently that these two probably didn't know that she had spent a lot of effort to woo Major General Huo in the other world …
"Nianzhi is too modest. That's not like your father," Lu Yuan teased humorously.
"Of course my daughter is good. People who like her have good taste and intelligence. People who don't like her not only have bad taste, but also have problems with their intelligence. "Lu Jin came back to his senses and quickly added, afraid that he would miss any opportunity to praise Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips helplessly and said, "Alright, alright. Your daughter isn't loved by everyone. Flowers bloom when they see flowers. She's just generally likable."
Lu Yuan: "…"
He took back what he had just said!
This father and daughter were really the same kind of people!
Lu Jin's expression was matter-of-fact as he held Gu Nianzhi's hand and said, "… He Zhichu wants to break off the engagement with you?"
Announcing that he would recognize her as his younger sister meant that he was going to break off the engagement.
Gu Nianzhi nodded. "Yeah, to be honest, he's always been good to me. It's just … we're really not compatible. I see him as an older brother, so I can't have romantic feelings for him."
The corners of Lu Jin's mouth twitched. "But if he wants to acknowledge you as his sister, will He Chengjian agree?"
Gu Nianzhi shrugged indifferently. "He has to agree even if he doesn't agree. I believe Young Master He will make him agree."
Lu Yuan laughed. "Yes, He Chengjian's only weakness is his son. Whoever controlled his son would be able to control He Chengjian. Now, it seems that our Nianzhi has the potential. "
Gu Nianzhi quickly waved her hand. "No, no! As long as General He lets me go, I won't dare to control him. "
She knew very well that this time, she had fought with her death to move He Zhichu, not He Chengjian.
In the end, he still couldn't win against her.
A part of Gu Nianzhi's heart softened. For the sake of He Zhichu's concession and letting go, he had left an eternal mark in her heart.
Lu Jin lowered his head and calculated for a long time. He turned a deaf ear to Gu Nianzhi and Lu Yuan's chatting. Finally, he suddenly asked, "Boss Lu, do you have an invitation from the He family?"
"Yes, our Lu Corporation has two every year." Lu Yuan nodded with a smile. "Secretary Lin and I go every year. What's wrong? Are you going this year too? "
Lu Jin made up his mind. "If Nianzhi wants to go, I have to go too."
"Dad, don't go." Gu Nianzhi knew that Lu Jin had been hiding from the He family all these years and didn't get too close to his old acquaintances.
Although he had undergone plastic surgery and even his voice was different from before, his style of doing things was too unique. If it was someone who was very familiar with him, after spending a long time with him, they might remember the genius scientist, Gu Xiangwen, who had a interpersonal disorder.
Gu Nianzhi didn't want Lu Jin to be in danger again because of her.
Lu Jin stared at Gu Nianzhi's beautiful face and insisted, "It's okay. I'm just going to watch the show. I won't give myself away."
Gu Nianzhi: "…"
Something didn't sound right.
She shook her head and insisted, "Dad, you really don't go. President Lu can go with me. You can stay at the back and provide us with technical support, okay? "
"Technical support?" Lu Yuan didn't know what Gu Nianzhi wanted to do. "What kind of technical support?"
Gu Nianzhi smiled and gestured for him to make a phone call. "It's to monitor the scene and inform us in time."
Lu Yuan frowned. "But the He family's Christmas party has very strong security measures. Our company can't interfere at all."
According to Gu Nianzhi's idea, she had to hack into the He family's mansion's surveillance system. That system could be said to be one of the highest-level security systems in the Huaxia Empire.
Lu Jin smiled. "That's no problem. I'll go hack into their security system now. Daughter, wait for me. I'll give you something good … "
He ran up to his room in high spirits.
Lu Yuan looked at Lu Jin's back and scoffed. "What a good Second Brother Lu. He's actually hiding it from me …"
"President Lu, what do you mean? Why are you talking about my father like that? "Gu Nianzhi pouted unhappily.
Just like how Lu Jin protected Gu Nianzhi all the time, Gu Nianzhi also subconsciously protected Lu Jin. She didn't allow anyone to have any contemptuous emotions or attitudes towards him.
If there was, she would attack them whenever she saw them. If it was light, she would make them doubt their lives, or if it was heavy, she would make them commit suicide.
Lu Yuan was also very happy to see that the father and daughter were getting along well. He smiled and said, "Your father is so cunning … I asked him to test the He family's security system in the past, but he actually said it was too complicated and couldn't be cracked … So it wasn't that he couldn't crack it, but that he wouldn't let me crack it."
Gu Nianzhi needed him to crack it, so he immediately started.
Gu Nianzhi was happy to hear that, but she still tried her best to put on a humble expression. She said, "No, no, President Lu is overthinking things. Of course my father treats me better. Isn't that only natural? You won't be angry, will you? "
Lu Yuan: "…"
He had to admit that Lu Jin's daughter was really well-versed in Lu Jin's teachings.
He didn't lower himself to the same level as the father and daughter. He calmly picked up the iPad and opened the invitation system. He looked at the guests tonight and said, "It's really lively today. A hundred more invitations were sent out than in previous years. It seems like it's to welcome He Zhichu home. He hasn't attended the He family's Christmas party in four years. "
Gu Nianzhi was lost in thought for a while before she finally decided. "Then I'll agree to attend with Young Master He."
Lu Yuan looked up at her. "Have you thought it through? I just checked. The Qin Corporation has a total of four invitations. Qin Yaoguang, Old Master Qin, Wen Shouyi, and one of Qin Yaoguang's cousins are all going to attend. "
Gu Nianzhi frowned. "Wen Shouyi? Why is she attending with the Qin Corporation? "
"Qin Yaoguang just divorced He Chengjian today, and she's going to the He family's Christmas party tonight. Why is her face so hot?"
Gu Nianzhi muttered. She couldn't help but want to give Qin Yaoguang a thumbs up for her psychological endurance.
Was it because people with thick skin had a stronger psychological endurance?
Lu Yuan clicked on the information he had collected about Qin Yaoguang and solemnly reminded her, "A woman who was able to be good friends with her ex-fiancé's family for 30 years after her engagement was broken off, and a woman who used her own daughter as an experiment can't be treated with common sense."
"Don't underestimate your opponent just because you won against her once. She's also an outstanding medical and biologist. She was the first person to propose the theory of 'gene editing'. She's only one step away from winning the Nobel Prize."
