Reincarnation: Multi-skilled Goddess Is So Beautiful!

Chapter 569 When Some People Get Shameless, They Are Really Invincible.

Lu Jingye did not answer her question and from the looks of it, it seemed like he was not sure either.

He came down here with the intention to call them up for dinner.

When they were having dinner, Mrs. Lu asked Lu Jingye, “Jingye, why didn’t you call your friend over to have dinner with us?”

Ian was a guest and it was a little rude if they did not invite him.

Lu Jingye said, “Ian went out in the afternoon. He’s going to eat out for dinner.”

Ian used to be an exchange student at M.Uni and he had great affection for the school. When Lu Jingye sent him to his place of residence, Ian told him that he planned to check out M.Uni and that he would also be having his dinner at the canteen there.

Mrs. Lu was relieved at his words.

The three of them had dinner.

After dinner, Zi Yi and Lu Jingye accompanied Mrs. Lu for a walk in the courtyard.

Mrs. Lu told them about what had transpired after they left.

“The second day after you left, your Eldest Aunt gave me a call and she wanted to ask me out for tea. I rejected her invitation.”

The reason why the First Madam invited her out was obviously because the men in her family were unable to manage the Lu Group and she had wanted to ask Lu Jingye for help privately. Mrs. Lu certainly would not agree to it.

“In order to let Zhiheng take the seat of the President of Lu Group, your Eldest Aunt did tons of little tricks in the dark. Does she honestly think I was unaware of everything?”

Mrs. Lu merely did not wish to make the situation such that it was ugly for everyone. In addition, her son was capable enough and so, she merely regarded the little tricks that the First Madam had done as a clown singing in an opera.

Zi Yi muttered, “When some people get shameless, they are really invincible.”

Mrs. Lu nodded in agreement. “That’s right. She even asked me if Jingye was busy these days and if he wasn’t could he go back to the Lu Group to handle some matters. She even gave the reason that he had been the President for so long that he must have had some feelings for it… Ha-ha!”

Lu Jingye saw how his Mother got more and more agitated as she continued her story and so, he comforted her. “Mother, you can just disregard what they say. Or just tell her that I’m busy right now.”

Mrs. Lu said with a smile, “That’s what I told her.”

She did not mince her words back then.

As soon as they finished their stroll and returned to the living room, Lu Jingye received Ian’s call.

After he ended the call, he said to the two of them, “Mother, Yiyi, I’ll make a trip back to my villa.”

Clearly, Ian had something to discuss with him. The both of them nodded and he took his leave.

When Lu Jingye entered the villa, Ian was currently on the phone.

As soon as he saw Lu Jingye walking over, he said to the other party, “Okay, I will consider it.”

Having said that, he hung up the phone and put the phone away in his pocket before he looked at Lu Jingye with a teasing gaze. “After I arrived in the capital, I have received invitational calls from several large families.”

Lu Jingye’s expression remained unchanged. “You can meet them if you wish to.”

Ian laughed and headed over to the sofa and sat down. He leaned against the back of the sofa, spread his hands, and stretched out his legs. There was no longer the gentlemanly behavior he revealed in front of outsiders. Clearly, there was no need for him to pretend in front of Lu Jingye.

Ian said, “A few influential families in the capital seem to have grudges with you. For them to ask to meet me now, what do you think they have planned?”

Lu Jingye walked over to the sofa next to him and sat down with a straight posture, while giving off his usual calm demeanor.

“No matter what their plans are, you hold the initiative.”

Ian was the successor of a Count and their family also possessed an electronic company that was ranked top ten globally. There would certainly be many people who wanted to work with him.

Ian expected Lu Jingye’s response to be as such. The corner of his lips curled up and he said, “These people know that we are friends and yet, they are asking me to meet them so blatantly. Aren’t you angry?”.

Lu Jingye looked at him with those wise eyes of his and he did not answer his question.

Ian clicked his tongue. “Say, how would they react if they knew that you own 49% of the shares of the world’s largest electronic company?” Lu Jingye replied, “What does that have to do with me?”

Ian said, “Alright then, a business genius like you would never understand the thoughts of common people like us.”

He then directly chased him away. “You had better go back and accompany that little wife of yours. I can’t afford to offend that woman.”

Having said that, Dou Xiangling’s gentle and charming face suddenly surfaced in his mind and he could not help but sigh. “They are clearly cousins but why is there such a big difference in their personalities?” Lu Jingye looked at him and said, “Don’t make her angry.”

Ian furrowed his brows and corrected him. “I didn’t provoke her alright! It’s just that your woman is too vengeful.”

Lu Jingye gave him a cold look. “You provoked someone she cares about. Who else but you will she attack?” Ian looked at him. “…Goodbye, we have nothing to talk about anymore.”

He stood up from the sofa and headed upstairs.

Lu Jingye looked at his back view and reminded him. “Get up early tomorrow morning.” “Why? I finally came to the capital to have a vacation. Shouldn’t I be waking up naturally during a holiday?”

“Yiyi is very busy. Forget it if you do not want your allergy to be cured.”

As soon as Lu Jingye said that, he stood up and headed toward the door.

Only then did Ian recall that Zi Yi had yet to prescribe him a prescription. “What time do you usually have breakfast in the morning?”

“7 a.m.”

“Got it, I will come early.”

By the time he had answered, Lu Jingye had already walked out the front door.

Just as Lu Jingye got in the car and left the villa, he received a phone call.

The tone of voice from the other end clearly contained the air of a superior. “Little Lu, the Lu Family’s military supplies have yet to be distributed and I hope that you can take over this matter at once.”

Lu Jingye looked ahead and the street lamps were reflected in his pitch-black pupils. “Apologies. Those supplies are produced by the Lu Group and now that I’ve left the Lu Family, I no longer have the authority to distribute them.”

The other party seemed to have guessed that he would respond this way and his tone became even more serious. “I will issue a document to have the Lu Group hand over this authority. You can represent us and distribute the supplies.” Lu Jingye’s lips raised ever so slightly at his words. “I understand.”

On the other side, at the Lu Residence.

The eldest son of Patriarch Lu didn’t come back until it was 10 p.m. in the evening.

He was already physically and mentally exhausted when he returned and yet, the First Madam was still nagging at him. “Jiancheng, your father came asking about Zhiheng’s condition today again. What should we do? Zhiheng is still in such poor health and don’t tell me we are really going to let him return to work at the Lu Group?”

Lu Jiancheng rubbed his temple with annoyance and said, “If he doesn’t return to the Lu Group, don’t tell me you want me to take charge forever?”

Lu Jiancheng has a regular job and he is currently preparing to head abroad with his superior. He had been sent a letter after taking leave these few days and he could not possibly lose his job just for the family business.

The First Madam felt even sadder.

Lu Jiancheng saw her expression and got angry. “Zhiheng merely hasn’t adapted to the management of such a big company like the Lu Group. Since Lu Jingye can manage it, can’t my son do so too?”

“But…”
