At night, Lu Shaoren, who had been working in the company for the whole day, finally returned home.
At eleven o 'clock in the morning, he received a call from Old Master Lu, saying that Lu Beichuan had woken up. The sudden news caught him off guard.
As the only son of Old Master Lu, Lu Shaoren's life in the Lu Family was extremely difficult. When he was young, there was an old man above him who didn't relinquish his authority and didn't trust him. In the company, he was just an empty shell with the title of Vice President.
During those years, Lu Shaoren's life was very sullen. No matter what investment direction or plan he proposed, they were all rejected. His circle of friends treated him as a joke for many years.
He finally endured until the old man retired. The young and promising Lu Beichuan was promoted by Old Master Lu and had great power in his hands.
Years of sullenness suddenly erupted on the day Lu Beichuan took office.
Lu Shaoren knew very well that with Lu Beichuan's ability, he would never have the chance to succeed in this lifetime.
He had many sons, but the Lu Family only had one.
It was a pity that he couldn't get rid of Lu Beichuan in the car accident, but after Lu Beichuan became a vegetable, he was no longer a threat. From then on, Lu Shaoren could sit back and relax.
But what he didn't expect was that Lu Beichuan would wake up one day!
Lu Shaoren sped up the transfer of assets. After a busy day in the company, he finally returned home.
In the dining room, Lu Beichuan sat in a wheelchair as Ye Zhen pushed him to the front of the table. Old Master Lu had been waiting at the head of the table for a long time. When he saw Lu Shaoren, who was late, he couldn't help but be unhappy. "I called you at noon to tell you to come home early. Why are you only back now?"
"I was busy at the company, so I was a little late." Lu Shaoren took off his jacket and handed it to the servant beside him. He sat down next to Old Master Lu and looked at Lu Beichuan, who was sitting opposite him, and said in a deep voice, "You're finally awake. Take care of your body first. We'll talk about it later."
Lu Beichuan nodded, his attitude neither cold nor indifferent. "I understand."
The relationship between father and son had always been like this, so the people present were not surprised. Mother Lu's face was full of joy, and she kept putting food into Lu Beichuan's bowl. She reminded him, "You just woke up, so eat something light. It's good for your health."
Old Master Lu said from the side, "I've asked the doctor. Although Beichuan can't stand for the time being, it's more than enough to handle the company's affairs. If you're too busy, you can let Beichuan share some of the burden."
Lu Shaoren was silent for a moment before he said in a low voice, "Beichuan should take care of his body for the time being. We'll talk about it after he's well."
Old Master Lu's meaning was too obvious. He would rather let a disabled person take over the position than hand over the Lu Family to him!
"Oh right, I found the person you gave me two days ago." Lu Shaoren was referring to the information Old Master Lu gave him about Lin Zhan two days ago.
He had looked into it. Among his illegitimate children, Lin Zhan was the most capable one. He also believed that Old Master Lu must have looked into it.
Now, Lu Shaoren understood one thing. As long as Lu Beichuan didn't die, he would return to the Lu Clan. But if there was an heir who was as capable and healthy as Lu Beichuan, how would Old Master Lu choose?
Sure enough, Old Master Lu paused when he heard Lu Shaoren's words. The scheming and astute man instantly weighed the pros and cons in his mind.
"We'll talk about this later."
Since he didn't reject it on the spot, it meant that Old Master Lu was moved.
He didn't have the confidence to control Lu Beichuan, but wouldn't it be easy to control a young brat?
The conversation between Lu Shaoren and Old Master Lu didn't attract much attention from Lu Beichuan. He was leisurely and even gave Ye Zhen a piece of meat.
Ye Zhen ate slowly at the side and also gave Lu Beichuan a piece of meat in return. She vaguely remembered the plot in the novel where Lu Beichuan personally planned to send Lu Shaoren to prison. It wasn't surprising that the father-son relationship between the two was so tense.
Sigh, a child who didn't have a father's love growing up had a twisted heart. Thinking about it carefully, it was quite pitiful.
"Oh right, Qing Qing, Beichuan said that he'll take you back tomorrow. This time, you can't go back empty-handed. I'll prepare some things for you to bring back."
Ye Zhen laughed dryly. "Thank you, Mom."
"No need to thank me. It's what I should do."
Before Lu Beichuan woke up, Mother Lu didn't like anyone. Now that Lu Beichuan woke up, Mother Lu found Ye Zhen the most pleasing to the eye. She felt that Ye Zhen was good in every way. Seeing that her son didn't dislike Ye Zhen that much, what else could she be dissatisfied with?
After dinner, Old Master Lu and Lu Shaoren went to the study. Mother Lu pulled Ye Zhen to check the list of gifts for the return trip.
Ye Zhen felt her scalp tingle when she saw the list. Wine, tea, jewelry, and precious tonics. Everything was top-notch and expensive. Ye Zhen was dazzled by the list.
"Mom, these … these are too expensive."
"They're not expensive! I think they're too little! If the two of you hadn't made such a hasty decision, why would we only prepare these things? After you and Beichuan have a make-up wedding, I'll discuss it with the in-laws. Don't worry, you won't be wronged. I guarantee that you'll marry into the Lu Family in glory! No one will dare to look down on you. "
After speaking, Mother Lu sighed. "Qing Qing, before Beichuan woke up, I was in a bad mood and had a bad temper. Don't take what I said or did to heart. From now on, you're the daughter-in-law of the Lu Family. Mom will only recognize you as her daughter-in-law!"
Ye Zhen nodded obediently. "Thank you, Mom."
This mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship that had caused countless people to go bald since ancient times was resolved just like that?
Mother Lu's attitude towards her was much better than Ye Zhen's own mother's attitude towards Ye Zhen.
***
This was the first night that the two of them slept together after Lu Beichuan woke up.
Ye Zhen didn't dare to wear a sexy camisole to bed like before. Instead, she chose to wear conservative and ugly pajamas. She slept on the edge of the bed, separated by countless Lu Beichuan.
Lu Beichuan saw her guarded expression and didn't say anything until a pair of cold hands touched her in the middle of the night.
Ye Zhen didn't follow the rules when she slept. She rolled from the head of the bed to the edge of the bed. The entire bed was cold, which made her very unhappy. She was still frowning in her sleep when she suddenly felt Lu Beichuan, the big stove, and wrapped her arms and legs around him.
Lu Beichuan's chest was hugged by Ye Zhen, and his waist was clamped between her legs. She hung on him like a koala bear for warmth. As usual, he helplessly covered her with the blanket and hugged her to sleep with one hand to prevent her from catching a cold again at night.
The next morning, Ye Zhen was woken up from her sleep. Lu Beichuan had already washed up and dressed neatly. He was sitting in a wheelchair and tying a tie.
When the author created the villain, she shouldn't have given the villain a handsome face. Bathed in the golden sunlight, he sat in a wheelchair and seriously tied a tie. This instantly hit Ye Zhen's maiden heart.
When she thought of this man's tragic ending, Ye Zhen undoubtedly felt the compassion that she shouldn't have.
It was such a pity that such a handsome man died.
Perhaps because Ye Zhen's gaze was too eye-catching, Lu Beichuan looked over and stopped what he was doing. "Do you know how to tie a tie?"
"Yes."
Lu Beichuan removed the tie from his neck and handed it to her. "Come here."
Ye Zhen rubbed her messy hair and got out of bed. She leaned over and looped the tie into his shirt collar. Her fingers skillfully tied the tie for him.
This was a very close distance. Ye Zhen could still smell the refreshing scent on Lu Beichuan's body. It made her breathing gradually become disordered and her heart beat faster. It was also strange. Even though he was dressed neatly in a suit, Ye Zhen suddenly thought of the countless dreams of Lu Beichuan's naked body. Those strong muscles, that boiling body temperature. How could an abstinent man be so crazy?
Ye Zhen looked down and stared at his Adam's apple. Her cheeks suddenly became hot.
She hurriedly tied Lu Beichuan's tie and fled into the bathroom with a guilty conscience.
She looked at her face in the mirror that was as red as a monkey's butt and was extremely angry.
Seducing people so early in the morning. It was obvious that all men were bad!
After taking her time to wash up, Ye Zhen went downstairs. Lu Beichuan was already sitting in the car waiting for her. Mother Ye put the gifts in the car behind them and gave a few more instructions. Ye Zhen complied one by one.
The journey wasn't too far. They arrived in half an hour. A man in a suit got out of the car and opened the door for Ye Zhen. When Ye Zhen got out of the car and turned around, Lu Beichuan was already sitting in a wheelchair.
No matter whether she got in or out of the car, Ye Zhen didn't see how Lu Beichuan got into the wheelchair.
"Qingqing, you're back?" Lu Beichuan's Family Ye parents had been waiting here since early in the morning, especially Father Ye. As soon as he saw them get out of the car, he immediately greeted them. He bowed and reached out to Lu Beichuan with a smile. "Mr. Lu."
He couldn't help but look a little flattering.
Lu Beichuan reached out to shake his hand. "Just call me Beichuan."
Family Ye was just a small company. When it almost went bankrupt, it was the Lu Clan that saved the Family Ye. Moreover, the Lu Family's purpose of marrying Ye Zhen was to ward off bad luck. They weren't well-matched in terms of social status, so there was no basis for their feelings. Father Ye wasn't good at business, but he was good at dealing with people. He didn't have the guts to call himself Lu Beichuan's father-in-law.
"I wouldn't dare."
The few of them entered the house. It was still early, so they chatted in the living room for a while. The Lu Family's chauffeur delivered the Lu Family's gifts, which were piled up like a small mountain.
Father Ye smiled and said, "Mrs. Lu, why are you being so courteous?"
Lu Beichuan had been holding Ye Zhen's hand since he entered the house. He smiled and said, "This is what I should do. Previously, I couldn't bring Qingqing home in time because of health issues. I hope you don't mind."
These words made Father Ye feel flattered. Lu Beichuan's sincere attitude and the way he looked at Ye Zhen didn't seem emotionless at all.
He glanced at his dispirited wife and secretly tugged at her sleeve to remind her. "Then … since it's Mrs. Lu's good intentions, I'll kindly accept it."
Mother Ye had been frowning ever since Ye Zhen entered the house. She had a lot on her mind, so how could she hear what Lu Beichuan said? She forced a smile and looked at the pile of expensive gifts, which made her feel even more flustered.
If Ye Qing had listened to her and married Lu Beichuan back then, Ye Qing would be the one returning home in glory.
