Went into the wrong room and offended the heir of a wealthy family

Chapter 237 Jiang Ye's Methods

Lu Xiaoxi can call dad now.

His father may never know about this.

Lu Mingyue's eyes were red when Uncle Cheng suddenly knocked on the door and came in.

He was startled and asked quickly: "Mingyue, why are you crying?"

Lu Mingyue avoided his gaze and said, "Nothing, something got into my eye just now."

Uncle Cheng looked at Xiaoxi in her arms, guessing that she might be missing her child's father, and sighed softly.

But Mingyue didn't want to say it, and he didn't dare to ask.

He changed the subject, "Come down and eat."

"it is good."

Downstairs, Kang Bo prepared a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner. Because of the New Year, Grandma Yan and Aunt Fang had moved back to the manor.

The nanny also went home for vacation.

This year, only three adults, Lu Mingyue, Uncle Cheng, and Kang Bo, were left for the reunion dinner.

Plus the little baby Lu Xiaoxi.

Getting ready to eat.

The doorbell rang suddenly.

It turned out that Deng Qing and Hong Dahu were here.

Deng Qing got divorced and broke up with her parents. She felt bored eating the New Year's Eve dinner alone, so she came to Mingyue's place to eat for free.

Hong Dahu is also a lonely man. He claims to be Lu Mingyue's biological brother. This year, Lu Jiayuan and her aunt are no longer in the villa, so of course he has to come.

The deserted villa suddenly became lively.

Lu Mingyue happily invited them to the table.

Kang Bo went to get the dishes and chopsticks. Lu Xiaoxi was sitting in a child's chair, and when she saw a familiar guest coming, she also let out a happy cry.

Deng Qing couldn't help but touch his chubby little face, "How cute! In the blink of an eye, our Xiaoxi can sit up."

As if to prove that he had made great progress, Lu Xiaoxi immediately opened his mouth and called out "Dad".

Deng Qing's eyes suddenly widened. Remembering that the child's father already had another woman, she subconsciously looked at Lu Mingyue.

Seeing that she looked calm, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Hong Dahu was furious.

"Xiaoxi can call dad now? Where did his father go? Mingyue, who is Xiaoxi's father? Tell me now, I'm going to break his legs!"

Although Hong Dahu did not follow his father's old path, he was always shouting for war and killing, and was full of violence.

Lu Mingyue was really afraid that he would go to Yan Chengzhi to settle the score, so she pretended to be sad, "Brother Dahu, do you have to ask this kind of question on the reunion night?"

Seeing that Lu Mingyue was sad, Hong Dahu was afraid that she would cry, so he dared not say a word.

He was silent, but the baby kept babbling.

Probably preparing to learn to speak, after Lu Xiaoxi called "Dad", it was as if a switch was turned on, and he would say from time to time -

"dad."

Sometimes they get so excited that they will repeat it over and over again.

"Dad--Dad Dad."

Lu Mingyue felt sad at first, but after listening to it more, she became a little jealous.

She is his biological mother, who takes care of him every day, but the first word he learned is "dad"?

What a heartless little fellow! Lu Mingyue was very upset during this meal.

After dinner, Lu Mingyue discovered that a photo had been received on her mobile phone at some point.

Sent from Jiang Ruoxin.

This year, she had the New Year's Eve dinner at Yan Chengzhi's large manor.

She took a selfie while sitting at the dining table, and included Yan Chengzhi and Grandma Yan in the photo.

Yan Chengzhi didn't show any expression, but his grandmother was smiling from ear to ear. She must be very satisfied with her future granddaughter-in-law.

After looking at the photos, Lu Mingyue put away her phone in silence.

It was no big deal, she told herself.

She and Yan Chengzhi had never started a relationship, so her situation couldn't even be considered a broken heart.

Be patient and you won’t be sad after a while.

Lu Mingyue did not respond, but Jiang Ruoxin would send her some photos from time to time to tell Lu Mingyue how close her relationship with Yan Chengzhi was.

Yan Chengzhi sat on the sofa and read a book.

Yan Chengzhi was fiddling with flowers and plants in the back garden.

Yan Chengzhi, his assistant and a six-member think tank were holding a meeting in the study.

Through Jiang Ruoxin's photos, Lu Mingyue knew——

What are the couplets posted in the manor this year?

The expensive cymbidium orchid in the back garden of the manor is in bloom again.

Grandma Yan still dries her little white onions in the manor...

At this time last year, Lu Mingyue was still working part-time as a chef in the manor and helping to post couplets.

Although I was only thinking about making money, I was really happy at that time.

Lu Mingyue was a carefree person. Thinking of those good times, she showed the photos to Lu Xiaoxi and said, "You little brat, this is the dad you're talking about."

Lu Xiaoxi didn't understand what her mother said, but when she heard the words he could say, she immediately followed and called "Dad".

Dad, Dad…

After hearing these two words for a few days, Lu Mingyue would dream about Yan Chengzhi.

I dreamed that she confessed to him about the child, he gladly accepted it, and then the three of them lived happily together.

The dream was so beautiful that Lu Mingyue felt lost after waking up.

She never let negative emotions linger overnight, and they would basically be digested after a good night's sleep. But these past few days, she would feel melancholy when she woke up every day.

Maybe this winter is too cold.

……

Fortunately, the weather gradually warmed up and the cold winter was about to pass.

The company resumed work. A few days after the start of work, the executive director suddenly received an invitation to cooperate on a project.

It is a collaboration about a five-star hotel.

The project was discussed at a company meeting.

Lu Mingyue sensed something was wrong and was the first to object.

"Our company mainly deals with wedding dress and clothing planning, and we are short of funds."

Wedding planning and hotel building are completely different business directions.

Lu Mingyue thought it was too risky to take on the project.

"Boss Lu, do you know why our company has always been a small company? It's because you are timid and don't dare to fight."

The executive director looked disdainful and said, "If Ms. Chen Caihong was still in office, she would definitely support it strongly."

Lu Mingyue retorted expressionlessly: "What a pity. When she was in office, no one asked her to cooperate on such a big project."

The executive director immediately slammed the table and stood up, "That's because I know the chief engineer of this project."

"If the relationship wasn't strong enough, Chief Engineer Mu wouldn't have come to our small, shabby company."

Lu Mingyue frowned: "There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world. I won't agree to this project!"

The executive director looked at Lu Chengfeng and said, "Mr. Lu, please express your opinion!"

Lu Chengfeng supports this project.

"The hotel has been built. We don't need to share the initial construction investment for our participation in the project. We only need to put out 200 million yuan and participate in the later decoration and publicity, and we can get 49% of the shares."

After Lu Chengfeng finished his analysis, he said, "I agree to cooperate."

"Hotels require large investments, but the returns are slow, and the market operation risks are also high. How many big hotels have closed down recently?" Lu Mingyue said sincerely, "Uncle Lu, 200 million is the bottom line of our Lu Group. We can't afford to take this risk."

Lu Chengfeng was not a radical, and Lu Mingyue almost convinced him.

The Executive Director immediately said upon seeing this: "Mr. Lu, you two should think it over carefully. If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again."

"With such a big piece of pie, there are many other companies that want to take a piece of it!"

Lu Chengfeng carefully read the contract again, and the legal department also checked it, and there were indeed no loopholes in the contract.

But he couldn't oppose Lu Mingyue too much, so he had to remain neutral and let everyone vote to decide.

More than 70% of the votes were in favor.

The executive director was very proud, "Please rest assured, Mr. Lu, I will supervise this project carefully and take our company to the next level."

Lu Mingyue had just taken the position of president and did not have a veto power, so he reluctantly agreed. After signing the contract, Lu's Group took out 200 million yuan to invest in the later decoration of the hotel.

However, within two months, the project ran into problems.

It wasn’t that Chief Engineer Mu cheated them of their investment money, but that Chief Engineer Mu simply ran away.

I didn’t even want to stay in the hotel, I just ran away.

The entire Lu Group was dumbfounded.
