“There’s no need for that. It wouldn’t be right if I don’t do my job in my own company!” Lu Qinzheng insisted. He had answered Lu Manman’s question without even discussing it.
A smile tugged on the corners of her lips.
Lu Xuanran looked unhappy. He had no opinion of his own and always listened to Lu Qinzheng. Of course he did not dare to say anything now.
“But before that, Lu Xuanran caused trouble in the company and made everyone in Lu Firm aware of it. That caused quite a stir,” Lu Manman said. “No matter what the outcome is, since Lu Xuanran has decided to develop well in Lu Firm, he should show his sincerity and attitude.”
“Today, Lu Xuanran made a scene at the company’s Human Resources Center and beat up two of his colleagues. I hope that he can apologize for his vile actions in front of everyone.”
“What?!” Lu Xuanran screamed. “How could that be?! You want me to apologize?! I, Lu Xuanran, have never been so humble in my life. Lu Manman, you’re trying to embarrass me, right?! Who are you to make me apologize to those useless people?! You’ve gone mad!”
Lu Manman’s expression darkened, and she coldly said, “Lu Xuanran, you’re not someone important, so don’t make yourself sound so noble. Moreover, if you think apologizing is embarrassing, then wouldn’t it be embarrassing if others were beaten up by you?!”
“What do you mean!” Lu Xuanran growled. “I’m not going to work anymore! Lu Manman, do you really think I want to be bullied by you like this?! Who the hell are you!”
“I’m nothing much, so I know how to respect others,” Lu Manman said calmly. “As for whether you want to go to work or not, it’s up to you. I won’t force you.”
“You, you!” Lu Xuanran’s face went red with anger, and he was ready to hit her.
Lu Qinzheng growled, “Enough! Lu Xuanran, go apologize!”
“Grandpa, why are you on Lu Manman’s side too!” Lu Xuanran’s eyes were red.
Lu Qinzheng waved his hand and strode out of the living room.
Lu Xuanran paused for a moment, then ran out.
Lu Zichuan and Lan Xiaojun glared at Lu Manman but did not say a word as they followed him out.
Silence ensued.
Lu Manman sneered.
She had to anger the people in the Lu family’s main household so that the plot that she had concocted in her previous life would surface ahead of schedule. She wanted to take this opportunity to catch them all at once and uproot the Wen family!
…
The following morning.
Lu Manman went to work.
Lu Xuanran arrived at the company at ten.
Then, he apologized for the trouble he’d caused yesterday.
He suppressed his anger.
It was only his first day at work, but he felt like he had just been slapped in the face. He felt like everyone was looking at him with disdain.
He had never been so embarrassed!
He swallowed his anger. He had thrown a tantrum when he got home yesterday, but he still came today.
His grandfather had said that he had to work at Lu Firm to get it!
His grandfather had promised him that Lu Firm would be his sooner or later. Even if it was not his, it would not be Lu Zishan’s or Lu Manman’s. They would rather destroy what they could not get than let Lu Zishan’s family have it.
Hence, he really wanted to see how it would feel to have Lu Manman under his feet.
He wanted her to experience what it felt like to be a hundred times worse than he was right now!
But.
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Who would win?!
