Chapter 34 Causing Trouble
“Perhaps, marrying you is not a bad choice.”
Lu Qi looked down and said in a soft voice. She gently placed her hand on Mo Chen’s wrist and leaned against Mo Chen’s chest in a relaxed manner. The sudden change in her attitude slightly surprised Mo Chen and reduced the strength of grabbing her arm by half.
Lu Qi squinted her almond-shaped eyes and seized the opportunity to attack Mo Chen’s arm, completely reversing the situation of the battle between the two of them.
Mo Chen, who she had retrained, leaned over and chuckled. He said with a teasing tone, “So, you know how to seduce?”
Lu Qi let go of Mo Chen casually. She dusted the dirt stains on her dress and answered emotionlessly, “I won’t reject any tricks. Winning is my only goal. As for what happens in my process of reaching the goal, it doesn’t matter.”
Mo Chen stared at her face. He could feel that Lu Qi’s deep, bottomless eyes hid many secrets and the past.
In the evening, Lu Han reluctantly sent Mo Chen away and invited him to officially come to the house as a guest the next day.
Mo Chen opened the SUV’s door parked outside the mansion. The butler in the passenger seat respectfully nodded at him and immediately reminded him, “Mr. Mo, the news of you frequently interacting with the Lu family has already spread. The side branch of the Mo family has started to inquire about your whereabouts and objectives. That is disadvantageous to our plan.”
“I can understand that you wish to integrate into the financial circle and the aristocratic families through Lu Qi, but you… need to be careful.”
Mo Chen’s eyes were sharp as he looked at the scenery outside the window, bending his fingers and tapping on the glass. A rhythmic muffled sound came from the enclosed and quiet space. It tensed up the atmosphere. The butler frowned and pursed his lips, not saying another word.
“I have my judgment when I do things. You will deal with the side branches of the Mo family. I don’t want to hear any more things about this.”
The butler heard the faint anger in Mo Chen’s words, so he could only nod heavily and do as told.
The crescent moon hung in the night sky. Lu Nuannuan went home and threw her bag on the floor. She hugged her arms and curled up on the sofa with her face was scrunched up in anger. Seeing this, Lu Wei sat beside her and asked, “Who made you angry?” “Who else could it be! Lu Qi has been getting weirder lately. She has Mo Chen’s support and doesn’t care about our family.”
“She’s always finding trouble with me, dad! Think of something, or else Lu Qi would be bossing us around in no time!”
Lu Nuannuan tugged at Lu Wei’s elbow and expressed her dissatisfaction in a coquettish tone.
Lu Wei thought for a moment with a gloomy face. He got up and walked to the study room. Then, he made a phone call and whispered something.
The next afternoon, Mo Chen came to the Lu family’s mansion as promised. Lu Han and Xie Jiao intended to give him and Lu Qi a chance to be alone.
Lu Qi saw that Mo Chen was happy. When she walked past him, she muttered, “Hypocrite!”
Mo Chen lifted his head and handed over the peeled apple he was holding. Lu Qi looked at him and took a big bite.
Lu Han was in a good mood as he hummed. His phone suddenly rang. He was stunned for two seconds when he saw the caller ID and immediately picked up the call.
Lu Qi saw his expression and immediately froze. She stood up with worry and doubt, wanting to ask.
Lu Han shook his head. He quickly grabbed his coat and arranged for the driver to drive the car to the door. “Qiqi, Mr. Mo, you guys continue chatting. Daddy is going out to deal with some work and will be back soon!” After speaking, he left the mansion without looking back.
About the company?
Lu Qi felt uneasy. Her anxious feelings made her wring her fingers and bite her lips unnaturally. Lu Han drove to the land contracted by the Lu Corporation in the suburbs.
The contractor led the workers and squatted on the ground with shovels, bricks, and other tools. The driver wanted to stop Lu Han from talking to them face-to-face, but Lu Han said in a low voice, “It’s okay, don’t be nervous. They won’t hurt me.”
“Are you the boss of the Lu Corporation?”
The contractor saw Lu Han get out of the car and walked over with a fierce look. He observed the man in front of him and spat on the ground two times impolitely, “Hurry up and pay us our wages. Otherwise, we won’t continue working!”
Lu Han saw the workers in a circle and frowned as he appeased their emotions, “Do we have some misunderstanding between us?”
“Our corporation paid your salary yesterday.”
The contractor bit the branch and punched Lu Han’s shoulder. The heavy force made Lu Han stagger two steps back.
“We didn’t get it! Who did you give the salary to? Don’t try to brush us off easily. Pay us the money now!”
“Perhaps, marrying you is not a bad choice.”
Lu Qi looked down and said in a soft voice. She gently placed her hand on Mo Chen’s wrist and leaned against Mo Chen’s chest in a relaxed manner. The sudden change in her attitude slightly surprised Mo Chen and reduced the strength of grabbing her arm by half.
