However, the smug look on Qiao Jiaxiâs face did not last long.
She watched helplessly as Lu Shiyuan suddenly walked out from behind Xia Jinmeng.
Lu Shiyuan first observed the half of Xia Jinmengâs face that had been slapped by Qiao Jiaxi. Then, his face darkened as he stared daggers at Qiao Jiaxi.
âExplain to me, what do you mean by âat least you know your placeâ?â His voice was harsh and somber, making Qiao Jiaxi pale in an instant.
âI⦠President Lu, let me explain. I justâ¦â Qiao Jiaxi pleaded as she tried to pull Lu Shiyuanâs arm.
Lu Shiyuan shook off Qiao Jiaxiâs hand forcefully. For a moment, she lost her balance and fell to the ground.
âI donât want to see you again!â Lu Shiyuan looked at Qiao Jiaxi with extreme disgust.
At this moment, Xia Jinmeng looked up at Lu Shiyuan. âPresident Lu, this is between Jiaxi and me. I can solve it myself.â
âAre you saying that Iâm meddling in your affair?â Although Lu Shiyuan grimaced, there was no trace of anger in his tone.
All the other women would rush to curry favor with him.
However, Xia Jinmeng was different. She seemed to be afraid that he would meddle in her affair.
Xia Jinmeng hurriedly shook her head and explained, âThatâs not what I meantâ¦
Lu Shiyuan and Xia Jinmengâs interaction stunned He Xiang.
What was going on with this ambiguous atmosphere?
Lin Shanchu, his fiancée, was still present at the scene!
He Xiang turned to look at Lin Shanchu with a confused expression.
Lin Shanchu gave her an eloquent smile.
âPresident Lu, President Lin probably has business with you. Iâll go up first.â Xia Jinmeng seemed to have suddenly remembered that Lin Shanchu was still present, so she hurriedly went in after finished speaking.
Only then did Lu Shiyuan turn to look at Lin Shanchu. His gaze was cold and provocative.
Those who did not know better would think that he had done something amazing.
Lin Shanchu sneered and glanced at Qiao Jiaxi, who still had not gotten up after Lu Shiyuan pushed her to the ground.
She ordered the bodyguards. âHelp Miss Qiao up. After all, sheâs a signed artist of Lu Corporation. Donât embarrass Lu Corporation.â
Her words were directed at the bodyguards, but her gaze fell on Lu Shiyuan.
Her intention was clear.
She did not care at all that Lu Shiyuan was flirting with two women in public. What she cared about was the reputation of Lu Corporation.
The bodyguards stepped forward and helped Qiao Jiaxi up like carrying a chick.
Lin Shanchu led a group of bodyguards into Lu Corporation building.
As soon as she entered the elevator, her phone vibrated.
Wen Huan sent her a new photo that he had taken via WeChat.
The photo was taken with a mobile phone. Lin Shanchu clicked on it and zoomed in. She realized that the scene in the photo was the exact scene where Lu Shiyuan had pushed Qiao Jiaxi just now.
Lin Shanchu replied to him: [Youâre quite fast.]
Wen Huan: [If you want to snatch the first-hand news, you have to act faster. If thereâs no problem, Iâm going to publish the article.]
Lin Shanchu: [Yeah.]
After thinking for a while, Lin Shanchu asked Wen Huan: [Do you know any financial journalist friends?]
Lu Shiyuan saw Lin Shanchu sitting on the sofa as soon as he pushed open the office door.
Lin Shanchu was leaning lazily on the sofa with her phone in her hand, swiping across the screen with her finger from time to time. Behind her stood a neat row of bodyguards.
âWhen did my office become a market?â Lu Shiyuan asked deliberately as he glanced at the row of bodyguards behind her.
âI was just going to ask you.â Lin Shanchu lazily lifted her eyelids and glanced at him. âPresident Lu, you signed all kinds of artists with the company. Do you think Lu Corporation is a market?â
Lu Shiyuan curled his lip and smiled proudly. âItâs only natural that I signed artists with potential.â
âIndeed.â Lin Shanchu nodded helplessly.
The smile on Lu Shiyuanâs face deepened, but in the next second, the smile on his face froze.
Lin Shanchu continued, âThe last artist you signed was Tang Qidai, right? She is crying in prison right now, isnât she?â
Lu Shiyuan gritted his teeth and drove her out. âGet out!â
âThe dignified president of Lu Corporation was flirting with two female artists at the companyâs entrance in front of his fiancée. President Lu, donât you want to look at this piece of amazing news?â
Lin Shanchu threw the phone to Lu Shiyuan.
Lu Shiyuan turned his head and took a look.
The video being played on the screen was of what had happened at the entrance of the company just now.
Lu Shiyuanâs expression changed. He frowned and took out his phone.
He was going to give Zhou Yan a call and order him arrange public relations.
Lin Shanchu gave the bodyguards behind her a look.
The bodyguards immediately went forward and snatched Lu Shiyuanâs phone.
Lu Shiyuan looked at Lin Shanchu in disbelief as he asked, âWhat is the meaning of this?â
Lin Shanchu smiled lightly and her eyes were filled with innocence. âWhat do you think?â
âPresident Lu!â
Zhou Yanâs voice faintly sounded from outside.
Just as Lu Shiyuan was about to respond to Zhou Yan, he heard Lin Shanchu say, âAre you scared?â
Lu Shiyuan turned around and saw Lin Shanchuâs disdainful gaze.
Naturally, he could not swallow his anger and sneered, âWhy would I be afraid of you?â
Lin Shanchu did not say anything and just looked at him calmly.
At this moment, Lu Shiyuanâs phone rang.
âMiss Lin.â A bodyguard showed Lin Shanchu the phone screen.
Zhou Yanâs name was displayed on it.
âGive it to him.â Lin Shanchu signaled the bodyguard to pass the phone to Lu Shiyuan.
Lu Shiyuan picked up the phone. âI have something to discuss with Lin
Shanchu. Donât come in and disturb me.â
Lu Shiyuan hung up the phone and sat opposite Lin Shanchu.
He stared coldly at Lin Shanchu and said, âA trifle like this on the Internet wonât affect me at all.â
âThatâs right. President Lu, you have experienced difficult times. No matter how big the matter is, you can resolve it, let alone this small scandal.â
Lin Shanchu stopped and looked at him casually before she continued, âBut Xia Jinmeng may not be the same. Those people on the Internet can overwhelm her with slanders.â
Lu Shiyuan revealed a look of realization. âSo this is your true purpose.â
âSo what if you signed her?â Lin Shanchu said coldly, âI can still take care of her, I wonât let her off the hook!â
âLetâs go!â
Lin Shanchu stood up and swaggered away with her bodyguards.
When she opened the door, she saw Zhou Yan and Xia Jinmeng guarding outside the door.
Xia Jinmeng looked into the room with a concerned expression and angrily called out to Lin Shanchu, âPresident Lin, if youâre unhappy with me, you can come at me directly!â
âCome at you?â Lin Shanchu sneered. âWho do you think you are?â
âLin Shanchu, donât go overboard!â Lu Shiyuan immediately went forward to warn her.
Lin Shanchu ignored Lu Shiyuan and strode away.
After entering the elevator, He Xiang asked softly, âSister Lin, you came today
toâ¦â
Lin Shanchu gave an irrelevant answer as she said, âTo check the results.â He Xiang did not understand it, but she did not ask any more questions.
Lin Shanchu was very satisfied with the results of todayâs inspection.
The more she targeted Xia Jinmeng, the more Lu Shiyuan would protect her.
Next, Lu Shiyuan would definitely invest resources on Xia Jinmeng and make her famous in the shortest time possible..
