The reactions of the two women in front of the operating theater made her felt uncomfortable.After remaining quiet for a while, Tang Ruochu asked Mu Ling solemnly, "Mu Ling, I have to ask you for a favor."Hearing that, Mu Ling responded hurriedly and respectfully, "Madam, feel free to order me.""Help me keep a lookout of the decisions within the Tang Group. I believe that it's achievable given your capabilities. Now, my father has fallen ill and there is no leadership within the firm. I have no energy to pay attention to company affairs, hence I require your help to gather information for me. This includes matters pertaining to the Ji Group, especially that of Ji Yinfeng and Gu Ruoruo!""Madam, don't worry. I will take care of these matters."Mu Ling knew that this was a serious matter, so he immediately nodded in agreement.Tang Ruochu nodded and ordered her men. Afterward, Mu Ling said his goodbyes and left.However, just after he walked out, Lu Shijin followed him out as w
The next morning, Uncle Zhao brought breakfast to the hospital for Tang Ruochu."Miss, you have been accompanying Old Master for the entire night. Go home and rest after having your breakfast. I shall take care of Old Master."Seeing her red eyes, the old man knew that she did not have a good rest, hence he advised her dotingly."It's fine, Uncle Zhao. I am not tired. Moreover, someone is helping me."Tang Ruochu shook her head and rejected Uncle Zhao's kind suggestions.Uncle Zhao was already old, so he could not afford to be too tired. He had already done his part to bring her breakfast. How could she still bother the old man further?However, Uncle Zhao was stunned by Tang Ruochu's words. "Someone is helping you?""Erm." Tang Ruochu smiled as she brought Uncle Zhao into the lounge.Once Uncle Zhao entered, he saw Lu Shijin standing within.The man was tall and extremely handsome, with an elegant and cold demeanor. An unusual aura was emitted from the man. From any aspect, o
Tang Ruochu felt a slight warm sensation in her heart. She helped the old man to sit down at one side. Then, she finished the breakfast he brought.During this period of time, Uncle Zhao also chatted with Lu Shijin for a while. The old man seemed to be very pleased with this new son-in-law.Lu Shijin was elegant in his behavior and words, and his conduct was good. He did not show any signs of looking down on Uncle Zhao just because he was merely a butler.On the contrary, he was full of respect.Because of this, Uncle Zhao realized that this son-in-law was so much better than Ji Yinfeng.In the past, Ji Yinfeng would order him around like a servant when he saw him. Meanwhile, Lu Shijin treated him with manners. Just based on this alone, the two could not be compared.After a while, Tang Ruochu finished her breakfast. She put the lunchbox back together and gave it back to Uncle Zhao. "Uncle Zhao, I'll have to trouble you to take care of the matters at home. As for the things in th
Uncle Zhao left soon after. Right after he left, Tang Ruochu could not wait to pass the solutions to the doctor to check them out.The result was unexpected; the doctor did not recognize this solution. "This thing must be imported. Right now, it isn't on the market, so we'll need to do a further examination in order to find out its components.""In that case, we'll have to trouble you to do that."After exiting the doctor's office politely, Tang Ruochu took in a deep breath. She tried to oppress the frustration in her heart.Lu Shijin hugged her and whispered in her ears gently, "The results will be out soon. Don't worry."Tang Ruochu leaned her head against his chest. There was suddenly a hint of tiredness in her tone. "Do you think there's really someone on earth so cold-hearted?"All these years, she had gone through endless suffering through fighting Gu Ruoruo and her mother alone.However, she never admitted defeat. She was like a female knight that counter-attacked with al
"Ying Xiaoxiao!"Xiaoxiao also stretched out her hand and responded politely. Both of their hands parted once they touched.Lu Shijin pressed his lips together and said lightly, "Miss Ying, you've been judging me for so long. May I ask if you have any suggestions?""I don't dare to suggest anything. However, Mr. Lu, you're really like what they all say. You're gentlemanly and full of charm."Xiaoxiao nodded in satisfaction. From what she gathered just now, he scored very high marks in his visuals, aura, and even figure.A man like this was compatible with Tang Ruochu.However, this was not enough!"An uncrowned queen with a firm footing in Beining City's upper-class society... You're not bad yourself," Lu Shijin said with a light smile."Uncrowned queen" was Xiaoxiao's other nickname. However, this was already three years ago.According to rumors, there were four famous beautiful women in Beining City. Three of them were from the Four Major Families: Ling Yirou from the Ling f
Lu Shengyao felt very sorry for himself. He came all the way here to deliver lunch for Tang Ruochu and Lu Shijin. He had just arrived and already heard people talking bad about him.He walked in from the outside and saw Xiaoxiao instantly. He quickly pouted and shouted, "It's you again! That petty woman!""Huh! Pervert."Xiaoxiao glared at him harshly and snorted.Hearing this, Lu Shengyao felt pissed. He put down his things and rolled up his sleeves. He started walking closer to Xiaoxiao. "You keep on calling me a pervert. Since you think that's the case, I think I would disappoint you if I didn't give you what you wanted.""What do you want?"Xiaoxiao was alarmed and she quickly took two steps back.Lu Shengyao smiled sinisterly and dangled both hands in front of her face. "Trying to be a real pervert. Do you think I should drag you out and do it, or should I just do it like last time?""How dare you!"Xiaoxiao stared at the two devil's paws dangling in front of her. She sai
Just a few days ago, the Ji Group was still facing a cash-flow problem because of the project that they were stuck with.Where did they find the extra capital to buy the Ji Group's shares the next day?"I'm here to talk about this too."Lu Shengyao interrupted at this moment. "The Ji Group has found an overseas buyer who's willing to take over their project. From our research, that company is called the AR Group. It mainly manages hotels and real estate and has a wider outreach to include electronics and entertainment.""AR Group?"Hearing this familiar name, Tang Ruochu started to recall. Suddenly, she gasped. "I remember! Ji Yinfeng's cousin Su Tian'ai seems to be working in this company and holds quite a high position. I've seen her a few times before. She is a very powerful woman who does things in the harsh way.""That's right. Su Tian'ai played a huge role in helping the Ji Group get the project off their hands. According to our sources, subsequently, Su Tian'ai will offici
At the same time, in the Ji Family's home...The crisis that the Ji Group had been facing over the past two months caused all three of them to be battered. Today, they had finally relieved themselves from the potential bankruptcy and could finally heave a sigh of relief.In the Ji Family's living room, the three members of the Ji Family, as well as Gu Ruoruo and her mother, were seated on the sofa. They looked at ease and relaxed."Yinfeng, in just a few days' time, your cousin will be coming back. Remember to pick her up from the airport and bring her home for dinner. If not for her, our family might not have been able to overcome this obstacle."Qin Silian looked at Ji Yinfeng, who was sitting beside her. Her face was colored with a faint shade of joy. The poise of a rich lady, which she used to have, made a comeback.In the past two months, Qin Silian had a rough time as well.In the past, no matter where she went, people would be flattering and fawning over her.However, aft
