After rebirth, my new love and I made it real

After watching Mu Yunmu leave, Gu Yichen picked up the phone on the bedside table.

He hired plainclothes bodyguards to stake out near Jiangyue Bay, report Lin Qingran's whereabouts to him regularly every day, and take photos.

There was no other way. He really missed her but couldn't see her, so he had to resort to this last resort.

The plainclothes bodyguard had sent him several sets of photos.

In the first photo, Lin Qingran is sitting on a bench with her long hair draped over her shoulders. A white puppy is squatting quietly at her feet. The figures of the person and the dog in the sunset are so beautiful and warm.

Gu Yichen looked at her fair and delicate cheek in the photo and couldn't help but stretch out his fingertips to touch it.

In the second photo, Lin Qingran and Lu Siheng just came out of the villa holding hands. They were wearing couple outfits, talking and laughing, like a fairy couple.

Gu Yichen's face darkened and he pursed his thin lips.

The third photo is another one of Lin Qingran and Lu Siheng. They are kissing on the swing at the entrance of the villa.

Lu Siheng seemed to have infiltrated her life. In the fourth, fifth, and almost all the subsequent photos, Lu Siheng was in them.

Gu Yichen clenched his hand holding the phone so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

He was madly jealous of Lu Siheng, jealous that he now possessed the most precious thing in the world - Lin Qingran's love and preference.

After the document regarding Lu Xiulin's appointment as general manager of Lu Group was issued, Lu Group immediately held an inauguration ceremony.

The news also quickly spread across major social platforms.

Media reporters flocked to the scene.

After the ceremony, Lu Xiulin was swarmed by the media and surrounded for interviews.

When Lu Siheng was standing in the corner watching, Lu Chengkang's voice suddenly came from behind him, "What a beautiful view."

Lu Siheng turned around, met Lu Chengkang's smiling gaze, and nodded slightly, "Uncle."

Lu Chengkang's eyes were still on the focal point Lu Xiulin not far away. "You say, they are both Lu Qingyun's sons, why are there such big differences?"

"Is it just because they are not born from the same mother?"

At that time, there was no one around the corner where Lu Siheng was standing. Most of the people present cast their eyes on Lu Xiulin in the distance, and no one paid attention to this side.

Lu Siheng smiled at Lu Chengkang, "Uncle, what do you mean?"

"I'm just a little sorry. I heard that you have become a regional manager in the MH Group overseas. Because of a word from the old man, you gave up everything in the MH Group and returned here. But how did the old man treat you?"

"Grandpa treats me very well."

"Okay, I'll just find a random position to get you out. You've been at the head office for so long, have you ever been exposed to even a little bit of the company's core?"

Lu Siheng remained silent.

Lu Chengkang patted his shoulder and said, "There are some things I can't say here. Come with me."

After saying that, he walked in the opposite direction of where the crowd was gathering.

Lu Siheng stood there for two seconds and followed.

Lu Chengkang took Lu Siheng into the elevator and came to his office.

"Sit down." Lu Chengkang gestured.

Lu Siheng was puzzled and couldn't help asking, "Uncle, what exactly did you ask me to do?"

Lu Chengkang coughed a few times and cleared his throat. "Today is Xiulin's inauguration ceremony. As his uncle, I should have been with him the whole time, but I have something I have to tell you."

He took out a recorder from the drawer and handed it to Lu Siheng.

"What is this?" Lu Siheng frowned in confusion.

Lu Chengkang drank his tea and said, "You will know what it is if you listen to it yourself. I am afraid you will be disappointed after listening to it."

Lu Siheng pressed the play button on the recorder in confusion.

At first there was no sound.

Then, there was a rustling sound, and he faintly heard the sound of a door opening and closing.

A few seconds later, he heard the voices of Mr. Lu and Lu Xiulin.

"Xiu Lin, although Lu Siheng and you have the same father, he is not a member of our family after all, and the identity of his mother is still unknown..."

"After Dad passed away, you are the person I trust the most. I will leave everything in the Lu family to you and will always support you. I hope you will not let me down."

"Xiu Lin, you just need to remember that Lu Siheng didn't grow up in the Lu family. He has unpredictable thoughts. You have to be on guard against him."

"..."

Lu Siheng's face turned paler as the recording played.

Especially when he heard the words "After all, he is not a member of our family", he clenched his palms tightly and a hint of gloom flashed across his eyes.

Lu Siheng cut off the recorder.

The sound stopped suddenly.

He looked up at Lu Chengkang in disbelief, "Is this recording real?"

Lu Chengkang spread his hands, "You can take it for identification."

In anger, Lu Siheng threw the recorder onto the table.

He took a deep breath, his eyes reddened with anger, as if it was hard to accept, but soon, he tried his best to suppress the emotions surging in his heart and looked at Lu Chengkang, "Why do you want to listen to this to me?"

Lu Chengkang came over and patted his shoulder gently to comfort him, "I can totally empathize with your feelings. I understand you and sympathize with you."

He poured a cup of tea and placed it on the table in front of Lu Siheng, then wandered around the office with his hands behind his back, "When I saw you, I couldn't help but think of my past self."

"Although my brother Qingyun and I are both Lu Chengan's sons, I have always been the inferior one. I know that in Lu Chengan's heart, I have no status at all."

"Soon after Lu Qingyun came of age, Lu Chengan handed the company over to him without hesitation. What about me? I had to beg him to let me work in the company and find a job for me."

As he spoke, he laughed. "After Qingyun died, I became his only son. I thought he would be able to see me, but no. He would rather let a young man who has just started out take charge of the Lu Corporation than look down on me. Then what was the meaning of my being in the Lu Corporation all these years? It made people laugh at me."

Lu Siheng looked at Lu Chengkang, took a sip of tea to calm down, stood up, and pretended that he hadn't heard anything. "Uncle, no matter what, today is Xiu Lin's inauguration ceremony. We shouldn't say these things."

"How long are you going to endure this?" Lu Chengkang grabbed his collar and brought him to him, staring straight into his eyes. "Lu Siheng, I always thought you were very smart. How come you still don't fight for what has happened? Are you really willing to accept this?"

"Didn't you have a hard life as a child? You must have worked very hard to become the regional manager of MH Group. You must not be a person without ambition. If you didn't have ambition, you wouldn't have come back, right?"

Lu Chengkang picked up the recorder and stuck it in front of him, "You heard everything. In the eyes of the old man, you are an outsider!"

"You didn't grow up in the Lu family. You have no status in his heart. You will never be able to compare to Lu Xiulin."
