Rebirth: The paranoid boss has a crush on me

It rained yesterday, and today the sky is crystal blue. The faint light penetrates the large floor-to-ceiling windows, bringing warm brightness to the president's office of Barron Pharmaceuticals.

Lu Xingrui is reporting to Fei Linlin on the progress of the Phase IV clinical trial of sleeping pills.

After listening to this, Fei Linlin had just finished reading the information in his hand, and his hand holding the pen did not move for a long time.

Lu Xingrui was getting anxious as he still couldn't get Fei Linlin's signature. "Mr. Fei?"

Fei Linlin: "Has Mr. Lu been discharged from the hospital?"

It took Lu Xingrui a second to realize that the Mr. Lu mentioned by Fei Linlin was Lu Yan. He couldn't help but sigh at the regretful relationship between the two, and then he was glad that he paid close attention to that side so that he would not be unable to answer when asked by the leader. "Mr. Lu has been discharged from the hospital. I heard that the car accident was caused by Mr. Lian."

Fei Linlin frowned deeply.

It is completely understandable that Lian Hongjun would do something shady to Lu Yan. After all, Lu Yan shot Lian Hongjun in the foot with a real bullet. Lian Hongjun is still lying in the hospital and did not even attend Qin Suifeng's homecoming party.

After signing, Fei Linlin returned the document to Lu Xingrui.

Lu Xingrui went out with the documents and came back a few moments later, "The front desk called and said a lady named Ai is here to see you. She's waiting downstairs."

If it was as Fei Linlin expected, the lady who came to see her should be Ai Yuan, "Let her go."

After the divorce, she no longer had to be perfunctory with Lu Yan's mother.

After receiving the order, Lu Xingrui called the front desk back.

Ai Yuan was kicked out before she even had time to sit down, so she was naturally unhappy, but this was Fei Linlin's territory after all, and without her permission, Ai Yuan couldn't just go upstairs to find her, after all, the facial recognition machine was blocking the elevator.

So Ai Yuan turned around to visit Lu Yan.

After the car accident, Lu Yan has been working from home, locking himself in the study all day and not eating much.

Ai Yuan was stunned the moment she saw him.

It has been just over a month since the car accident, and Lu Yan has become extremely thin. His former handsomeness is long gone, replaced by sunken cheeks and a scruffy face.

Ai Yuan: "Why are you so thin? Yu Linlian told you that you were only slightly injured in the car accident, but it doesn't look like that. What exactly is wrong with you? Do you want to go to the hospital for another checkup?"

Yu Linlian told Ai Yuan that Lu Yan was only slightly injured in the car accident, which was of course Lu Yan's own idea.

Ai Yuan would definitely see the news and call to ask. Lu Yan didn't want her to think too much. He didn't expect her to return home. He sighed silently in his heart, "It's not that serious. Why are you here?"

Ai Yuan: "I'm so upset by all the mundane things at home that I just wanted to come back and take a look. Are you divorced from Fei Linlin? I just went to Barron Pharmaceuticals and she didn't see me."

Obviously, the mundane troubles that Ai Yuan mentioned were the mistress and her child, and she was very sad and worried about them.

Lu Yan frowned after hearing her words, "I remember I told you not to look for her again."

When they were abroad, Lu Yan smashed the gems and folic acid that Ai Yuan gave to Fei Linlin, and ordered her not to look for Fei Linlin again.

Of course Ai Yuan remembered that incident. She had forgiven Lu Yan a long time ago. Now that it was brought up again, she showed a very sad expression, "I just want to ask her why you divorced. You divorced right after the car accident. It doesn't look good for your reputation and hers. What happened to you that you had to get divorced? It can't be because I forced her to have a baby, right? I hope she can have a baby as soon as possible, but I didn't say that if she doesn't, you have to get divorced."

Since they parted at the age of eighteen, Lu Yan has not made many requests to his parents, but when Ai Yuan got older, she always liked to interfere in his affairs, which made him annoying but unable to refuse.

The reason why he couldn't refuse was that Ai Yuan would always do good for him in the name of family affection. For example, although Ai Yuan didn't like him, her investment in him was unquestionable - Ai Yuan once took him and his brother to the hospital to test their IQ. After the results came out, Ai Yuan decided to invest 70% of the family income in him. This enabled him to be proficient in horse riding, calligraphy and painting, golf, piano, and eight languages ​​since he was a child... All these laid the foundation for him to mix into the circle of rich people when he grew up.

The mother-son relationship between them is not harmonious, but it is by no means completely confrontational.

Lu Yan explained to her: "It's my fault. I'm tired of it."

Ai Yuan simply couldn't understand, "How could you do this?! I let you receive an orthodox education and attend the best public schools. Where did you learn such bad qualities? Just like your disgusting father!"

Another email came to the computer. Lu Yan lost his patience to talk to Ai Yuan. "This is not your business. When I was eighteen, you took my brother abroad without hesitation. Now don't meddle in my affairs too much. I have no obligation to live according to your requirements."

Ai Yuan was very sad. She graduated with a degree in accounting, but gave up her career and devoted herself 100% to her family. Under her planning, every penny of her husband's income was put to good use. They lived in a bigger house, her smart brother learned many skills, and her frail brother got better and better.

She firmly believed that anyone in her position would not be able to do better than her, but in the end all she got was a cheating husband, an indifferent eldest son, and a youngest son who married a wife and forgot his mother.

Ai Yuan tightly grasped the handle of her bag, her voice filled with sadness, "I had no choice at that time. Xiao Si had a runny nose every day, and he blew his nose every day. He had nosebleeds twice a day. I wanted to make him feel better..."

Intellectually, Lu Yan understood her choice, but emotionally, he couldn't forgive Ai Yuan for himself when he was 18 years old and depressed to the point of self-harm. "Please make me feel better too."

Perhaps because of guilt, Ai Yuan couldn't face Lu Yan anymore. "It's normal to feel bad after a divorce. You need to adjust as soon as possible. Next time... if you are free this Christmas, remember to come to California and have dinner with us. After all, we should have a family reunion once a year."

Lu Yan didn't give an answer. Ai Yuan couldn't stay any longer and turned to leave.

Yu Linlian had prepared a car for her at the entrance of the villa. When he saw her coming out, he immediately put on a smile and walked over to her, handing her a check. "Mrs. Ai, this is what Mr. Lu asked me to give you. You've always wanted to travel around the world, right? Go and realize your dream. Don't worry about the mess at home. Mr. Lu doesn't need to worry. It's normal for a child with wings to want to fly away."

Of course Ai Yuan knew that the check, the Audi A6 at the door, and the young and handsome assistant who came to cheer her up were all instructed by Lu Yan.

Ai Yuan, holding the check, recalled that she treated Lu Yan coldly when she was raising him, and at the same time she spent money and energy to help him learn skills. Now that Lu Yan has grown up and has become capable, he uses the same method on her. She sighed, "But this is flying too high."

Yu Linlian: "The great roc spreads its wings to 90,000 feet. This is not something that we mortals can control. Instead of thinking too much, it is better to live in the present and enjoy freedom."

Ai Yuan: "You are right. Please buy me a plane ticket to Maldives."

While Yu Linlian was booking the plane ticket, he was thinking that Mr. Lu must reimburse this expense!
