Training the Heavens

Chapter 13: Mutual Schemes
Lu Jie must have some skills to be able to become the company's vice president. He entered the industry early and has rich experience and certain connections. However, due to his background, the level of his network is still relatively low.

Such people can live a relatively comfortable life in normal times, but once they encounter problems, their ability to withstand risks will be unable to keep up.

Especially those of his connections who were on government payrolls. Who would dare contact him again after hearing he was invited out for tea? Even if he wasn't in trouble, he'd still be under surveillance for a while. If he bumped into him now, could it be that he was feeling too comfortable and looking for some excitement?
So these people cut off contact with him one after another. Without these relationships, Lu Jie could no longer support the position of vice president with only his past experience.

His competitors also knew this, so they would naturally not miss this good opportunity to attack their opponents. Through their spread, the news that Lu Jie was invited for tea spread more and more widely, causing Lu Jie to lose several projects in succession.

He was so angry that he threw the cup. "It must be that bastard Lao Gu. He's been eyeing my position all these years! Now he finally found his chance!"

Xie Meilan didn't dare to breathe, for fear of accidentally angering Lu Jie and being kicked out. She has already divorced Shen Lei, and if Lu Jie dislikes her again, she will have nothing!
Moreover, she still owed Lu Jie money. Now that they had a good relationship, Lu Jie had no problem asking for the money. If they fell out, the 500,000 yuan would crush her!
If I hadn't divorced Shen Lei yet, the thought had just flashed through her mind when Xie Meilan threw it aside. No, no, no, I've had enough of this poor life. I must seize this opportunity and become a rich wife!

She suppressed her anxiety, slowly walked to Lu Jie, held his hand and comforted him, "Don't worry, since both of us are fine, we will definitely be able to get our passports back in a few days, and then the project can be resumed!"

"How can it be so easy? Lao Gu and his gang are so ruthless. How can it be possible if the project is in their hands?" Lu Jie wanted to curse. What's wrong with your brain? You still have illusions at this time?

But he took the words back when they were on the tip of his tongue, because he had long realized that his competitiveness in the financial industry was declining year by year. In terms of rolls, he could not compare with those young people; in terms of relationship networks, there were countless newcomers entering the industry every year with backgrounds deeper than his, and he could not compete with them either!

So he had already started thinking about what path he should take in the future and had drawn up some plans. However, he couldn't make these plans by himself and needed the cooperation of others.

Xie Meilan was the candidate he had found with great difficulty, and it was far from the time to fall out with her, so even though he felt uncomfortable, he still had to coax Xie Meilan for the time being.

Lu Jie put his arm around Xie Meilan's shoulders and said, "I'm sorry, I was the one who brought Lao Gu into the industry. He's taking advantage of me now, which made me lose my composure. I hope I didn't scare you."

"No, no! It's all because Old Gu is so hateful!" Xie Meilan quickly shook her head. How could she dare to complain at all?
"Forget it, it's already happened, there's no point in thinking about it." Lu Jie picked up his phone. "I used to be busy with work every day and had almost no time to rest. Now's a good time to take a break. Haven't you always wanted to eat at Xin Rong Ji? Let me see if there's any space today! Let's go eat together!"

Lu Jie took Xie Meilan to Xinrongji for a seafood meal, and then went to the department store to buy her some clothes and bags. Seeing Xie Meilan's intoxicated look, Lu Jie felt relieved.

After so many years in the financial industry, she's still a silly girl. I don't know how she managed to get by all these years! But I just like her silly side. If she were a smart one, things would be much more difficult.

Most of the time, Xie Meilan's brain really doesn't work well, but in some areas, she is still very sensitive. Just like now, she has just sensed Lu Jie's dissatisfaction with her, and her current intoxication is also somewhat fake.

She has been in the financial industry for so many years, and although her work skills have not improved much, she has not been in vain. She cannot listen to everyone's discussions on professional knowledge on weekdays, and she is more concerned than anyone else when some female employees discuss how to control men.

Lu Jie's reaction gave her a great sense of urgency. After just a few days of living together, he already showed his dislike for her. Although he immediately regretted it and started trying to make amends, who could guarantee that this would continue? Lu Jie was not a man like Shen Lei who was unwanted! Xie Meilan had seen how the young women in her company and partner organizations had tried every possible way to tease Lu Jie.

Now that she had finally entered Lu Jie's home, it would be a huge loss if she was kicked out again! And it would definitely be regarded as a joke by them and spread throughout the entire financial circle of Beijing.

So, how could they tie Lu Jie down? Xie Meilan's mind raced, and she began to carefully recall the various strategies the female employees had discussed privately. Finally, she made up her mind.

Back home, Xie Meilan brought Lu Jie slippers to change into, took his coat and hung it up for him, poured him a glass of wine, and massaged his shoulders. "Rest for a while, I'll run you a bath!"

Xie Meilan would never do these things in Shen Lei's house. She always said that her mother loved her since she was a child and would not let her do these things. Besides, she worked hard to study for a master's degree, not to serve a man!

Now, in front of Lu Jie, she didn't mention any of this, for fear that she would do something wrong and make Lu Jie tired of her.

After adjusting the water temperature, putting the anti-slip mat next to the bathtub in the right position, turning on the TV in front of the bathtub and tuning it to Lu Jie's favorite show, Xie Meilan invited Lu Jie to come in and take a bath.

While Lu Jie was taking a bath, Xie Meilan quickly ran to the bedroom, closed the door, and took out a small Okamoto trumpet from the drawer of the bedside table. She listened quietly to the noise in the bathroom for a while, then took out a needle and quickly pierced a few small holes on it!

Then she quickly changed into seductive clothes and went to the bathroom to rub Lu Jie's back.

This is what she thought of. Lu Jie is 42 years old this year and still has no children. If she can get pregnant with his child, then the rest of her life will be basically guaranteed. Even if they get divorced, she won’t be afraid. She can still live a good life by dividing Lu Jie’s property!

It's even better than continuing to be with him. If given a choice, who would want to serve an old man!

Living in such a big house with my children, driving a luxury car, getting a beauty treatment, and getting child support from him every month, this is a good life.

After taking a shower, the two people, each with their own ulterior motives, returned to the bedroom and started making love.

After just a few minutes, the two of them stopped moving.

Lu Jie dislikes Xie Meilan's appearance, and Xie Meilan thinks Lu Jie is too fast. They both comfort themselves in their hearts, just be patient, it will be fine after a while.
