Lu Shiyun's tone of voice was normal. It was nothing more than the concern of an elder towards a junior. Moreover, Lu Yihan was right beside her. From Lu Shiyun's position, he would indeed say something like that — let Lu Yihan accompany her to the hospital.
But this kind of recognition was like telling everyone that she, Leng Xinyu, was the daughter-in-law of the Lu family and Lu Yihan's wife. Qin Fangang, who was standing to the side, had no right to speak.
...
Xin Yu was actually a protective person. Although she was still angry with Qin Fangang, Lu Shiyun's words made her feel a little uncomfortable. This uncomfortable feeling was because she could completely empathize with Qin Fangang's feelings at that moment.
No matter how cold a war they were in, no matter how much they threw tantrums, it was still between them. She didn't want any third party to interfere with the little bit of relationship they had painstakingly built.
Xin Yu instinctively raised her eyes and quickly glanced at Qin Fangang, who was standing to the side. The man's handsome face was gloomy and his thin lips were slightly pursed, but there was a hint of sharpness in them. Xin Yu's heart instinctively shrank when she saw this.
She knew that he must be very unhappy right now.
Of course, he would be unhappy too. At a time like this, one sentence from Lu Shiyun effortlessly pushed this almost omnipotent strong man into the realm of "incompetence."
— — That was the man she liked. In Leng Xinyu's heart, he, Qin Fangang, was actually good at everything. He could move her heart no matter what.
Xin Yu lowered her eyes. A conflicted pain flashed in the depths of her eyes, but it was hidden by her long eyelashes.
Lu Yihan didn't say a word from beginning to end, but his gaze didn't leave Xin Yu's face for even a second. He took in all of her subtle expressions. The man's thick brows instinctively furrowed.
He suddenly reached out and pulled the silent Xin Yu over. He said to Lu Shiyun, "... It's nothing. It's my first time attending this kind of meeting and I'm just a little nervous."
Xin Yu didn't want Qin Fangang to misunderstand, but she couldn't do anything in front of so many people. Right now, she was in a completely passive state. Even she hated this feeling. At this moment, she realized that Qin Fangang's words weren't without reason.
Delaying her and Lu Yihan's marriage wouldn't benefit either of them. Even if she left the Lu family, it would be impossible for her to openly be together with him. But at least she wouldn't let the man she liked than being in an "incompetent" state.
.
"Isn't it time? Why are you standing at the door? Let's go in for the meeting. "
Lu Yihan pulled Xin Yu into the office. He dragged Xin Yu into the meeting room. Lu Shiyun watched the two little ones enter the meeting room one after the other. His eyes flickered slightly, but after a moment, they returned to normal. His gaze met Qin Fangang's.
"... Fan Gang, before the meeting, I have a few words to say to you."
Qin Fangang calmly handed the documents in his hands to Ji Yang and motioned for him to go in first. After Ji Yang left, he nodded at Lu Shiyun and said in a cold and distant tone, "What's the matter?"
"I've already heard that because Yihan's project hasn't been clinched, you pressured her in front of the entire company's top management at the previous meeting. Today …"
"I think you've made a mistake."
Qin Fangang wasn't in the right mood. There was a ball of anger in his chest that was burning fiercely. Just by looking at the image of Lu Yihan and Xin Yu standing together, he couldn't control the flames of jealousy in his heart. However, not only did he see them standing together, but they were also holding hands. Just because they were "husband and wife" in name, the difference between him and that man was so huge.
Qin Fangang unconsciously clenched his hands in his trouser pockets. He coldly interrupted Lu Shiyun and said with a frown, "I didn't pressure him. He promised it to me himself."
Qin Fangang's words were cold and harsh. Lu Shiyun was a prideful person and had hit a wall in front of his son several times, so he was a little displeased. At this moment, his voice also deepened a little. "... No matter what, you're still his older brother. Fan Gang, why did I ask you to come back and take care of this company? It's because I want the two of you to work together. Do you know that this is the only way you can cut through gold? I didn't ask you to take care of the Lu Clan alone. Yihan is still young and this is his first time encountering some things. I told you before to take care of him a little. Where do you expect him to find a partner to work with in three days? What if he can't do it? Today, in front of so many directors, where is his dignity? Do you still want him to have a foothold in this company in the future? "
Qin Fangang was furious. Instead, he sneered, "Have a foothold? If he wants to have a foothold in the Lu Clan, does he still need me to support him step by step? Do you think he's still young? How old is he this year? If I remember correctly, I'm only two years older than him. I'm 28 years old this year and he's already 26 years old. But when I was 26 years old, I didn't see my father even once a year. When I was 23 years old, my mother fell ill and stayed in the hospital for seven days and seven nights. What I was most afraid of at that time was that I, Qin Fangang's only family in this world, would suddenly leave me. When I was 24, I already knew how to invest. When I was 26... you should know that when I was 26, you already started to pay attention to me, right? "
"If I didn't have a mind for business, would you have let me come back to the Lu Family? Of course, there are some things that I don't want to be vague about. If my mother hadn't let me come back, I wouldn't have come back. "
Lu Shiyun was speechless.
He lowered his eyes and couldn't refute a single word.
Qin Fangang used the most arrogant attitude and gradually said a few words, but they were extremely sharp and pointed out that Lu Shiyun, as a father, favored one and discriminated against the other.
The human heart was made of flesh and blood. Who wouldn't have the slightest awareness of their own bloodline?
Sometimes, you just don't want to think about it, don't want to look at it, so you think you can really be indifferent. But many times, you will find that you always think you have an iron wall, but you can't take it into consideration. In fact, the other party has an incomparably sharp weapon that can pierce through your iron wall.
...
"I can understand your feelings of wanting your son to succeed, but don't worry. I believe that your good son doesn't seem like he's joking with me."
Qin Fangang didn't let these negative emotions affect his mood for too long. He reached out and tugged at his sleeves, raised his eyebrows, and said, "The meeting is about to start. Why don't we wait and see? Maybe he'll give you a surprise."
...
Lu Shiyun raised his head and frowned as he watched Qin Fangang's tall and straight figure walk into the meeting room. His lips moved as though he wanted to say something, but he swallowed the words that were at the tip of his tongue.
After Qin Fangang entered the meeting room, almost all the board members were already seated. Lu Yihan sat at the top left according to his status. Xin Yu sat next to him. The two of them sat together, giving the illusion of a talented man and a beautiful woman. They really looked like a loving couple.
Qin Fangang sneered in his heart. His gaze didn't linger on Xin Yu for too long as he quickly took his seat at the top.
Then Lu Shiyun walked into the meeting room. Naturally, he and Qin Fangang sat at the two ends of the table. Currently, Lu Shiyun was still in charge of the Lu Clan. He still held most of the shares. Moreover, the Lu Clan was a family business, so the leaders were more or less related to the Lu Clan. Although Qin Fangang was an illegitimate son, Lu Shiyun let him take the position of CEO. Of course, the most important thing was his business acumen. Everyone present was sincerely convinced by his business acumen.
Actually, the once-a-month board meeting was just a general review of the previously negotiated projects and profit issues. Then, they would plan some targets to be met within the next month.
Naturally, Qin Fangang didn't need to speak about these matters. The man leaned back in his office chair with his long legs elegantly crossed. His hands were casually propped up on his knees, and his slender and beautiful index fingers tapped on each other from time to time. From beginning to end, he seemed to be listening to the report very seriously. Xin Yu secretly raised her head several times to look at him, but all she saw was his cold and emotionless profile.
She felt a little disappointed and uneasy.
Was he really angry?
Actually, when she came to the company this morning and heard what Mu Chenchu said, her heart was already beating like a drum. Perhaps a bystander could see more clearly, but as the person in charge, she wasn't ignorant.
The reason she was angry with Qin Fangang really wasn't because of Lu Yihan. She had too many things hidden in her heart that she couldn't say out loud. She didn't have the opportunity to say them, so she was very frustrated. She didn't know why things had turned out this way.
But the moment he stopped her in the elevator on the tenth floor, Xin Yu knew that this man was doing it on purpose!
He was doing it on purpose. It was just a childish act that made her feel at ease and sweet. It was to tell her that he actually really cared about her.
Such an insufferably arrogant man only did those ridiculous things because of her.
When she "angrily" scolded him in her heart for being childish and annoying, when she kept telling herself that she didn't want to talk to him for the rest of her life, she knew very well that it was just a sweet torture.
Including when she and Lu Yihan were in the office, when he rushed in and said those harsh words … Xin Yu also knew that he was just jealous and that he was acting like this because of her …
But now, from the moment he entered the meeting room, he hadn't cast his gaze on her for even a second. Xin Yu felt a little uneasy.
Did Lu Shiyun and Lu Yihan's words and actions just now really make him angry?
