Training the Heavens

Chapter 17 Lu Jie's Incident
I'm pregnant now, and if I tell Lu Jie right away, he will definitely be happy. But what if something unexpected happens in the future?
First I was surprised and then disappointed. Such a big emotional change would cause him a huge blow. What if he kicked me out because he was unhappy?
Or what if his relationship with me hasn't reached that stage yet and he insists on me having an abortion?
At this time, Xie Meilan's brain started to work very well. She quickly calmed down from her excitement and slowly thought about the gains and losses of this matter, as well as what to do next.

I have just become pregnant and everything is still unstable, so I can’t tell Lu Jie for the time being. I will continue to please him and increase the relationship between us. At the same time, I will take good care of the baby in my belly. I will tell him the good news after I have passed the initial dangerous period and feel completely settled.

After much thought, Xie Meilan finally found the path that was most beneficial to her. If she had been this dedicated at work, she would have been promoted long ago. Why is she still only receiving a salary of 20,000 yuan?
She then carefully followed the doctor's instructions to regulate her body, and hid the folic acid tablets, dydrogesterone tablets, progesterone capsules and other medicines prescribed by the doctor that are beneficial to fetal development in a secret place to avoid being accidentally discovered by Lu Jie.

A few days later, Lu Jie returned from a business trip and gave Xie Meilan a new gift: a Porsche Macan S worth seven hundred thousand yuan. "Look, this is the new car I bought for you. Do you like it?"

"Ah!" Xie Meilan jumped up excitedly. At that moment, she even forgot that she was pregnant. "Is this really for me? How did you know I like Porsche? I love you so much!"

"Of course. I know you like Porsches, so I chose this one. Look, this color suits your temperament so well." Lu Jie handed over the keys. "Get in and drive it for a bit, is it suitable?"

"It's suitable, suitable, definitely suitable!" Xie Meilan nodded repeatedly, and the image of Shen Lei's electric car emerged in her mind. She felt more and more that it was the right thing to do to divorce Shen Lei, otherwise she might not be able to drive a Porsche in this life!
"You say it's suitable without even driving it? Come on, get in the car!" Lu Jie gentlemanly opened the door for Xie Meilan and then sat in the passenger seat.

Xie Meilan started the car and was a little nervous at first, but she quickly adjusted to the situation and praised the car throughout the journey. "A Porsche is so comfortable to drive! You're so kind to me!"

After driving for more than ten kilometers, they stopped at the door of a high-end restaurant. Lu Jie had already booked a private room here in advance. After ordering the dishes and asking about the results of Lu Jie's business trip, Xie Meilan asked cautiously, "Is this car registered in my name?"

Lu Jie scoffed, "Who's still so stupid these days? Using your own money to buy a car? It's on the new company's account. The company is yours, so the car is naturally yours too! Buying a car in the company's name not only deducts taxes, but the company will also cover the gas, repairs, and insurance. Why would you even need to spend your own money?"

"You are just smart!" Xie Meilan's voice became coquettish. After all, she had worked in a financial company for so many years, so she naturally understood what Lu Jiegang said.

Lu Jie couldn't help but shudder. How old are you, and you're still acting like a little girl? It's cute for a girl born in the 00s, but it's terrifying for a woman in her thirties to do this.

Besides, do you really think this car is given to you for free? Why don't you go back and look in the mirror and see if you have the nerve to do that?
Lu Jie complained in his heart, but his face was full of love. He held Xie Meilan's hand and said, "You are my woman, I definitely hope that you can live a better life! This Porsche is just the beginning. In the future you will have Maserati and Ferrari. If the company develops well, Bentley will not be a problem!"

When Xie Meilan heard this, her face flushed immediately and she quickly clamped her legs together. This moment was exactly the same as those domineering CEO novels she had read. For a woman to meet such a man, she would have no regrets in her life!

"You can do it! You're so talented, our company will definitely become bigger and stronger in the future and go public soon!"

"I can't do it alone, we have to work together! I like you not only because you are beautiful, but also because you are capable! Before, we just lacked a platform, but now I have built the platform, and you can finally show your talents!" Lu Jie continued to fool.

"So what should I do now?" Xie Meilan asked. "It's simple. The last few times I went out, I already made some contacts for our company. Several big clients are willing to pay us. Now you just need to do what I say!" Lu Jie lowered his voice and told his plan.

As Xie Meilan listened, the smile on her face froze. She asked anxiously, "This doesn't seem to comply with the regulations, does it?"

"Hey, what are you afraid of? You have been in the financial industry for so many years, and you have seen very few similar things! If we do everything according to the regulations, how can we make money?" Lu Jie waved his hand, not caring at all.

Then he continued to paint a rosy picture for Xie Meilan, "As long as these deals are done, I will take you on vacation to the Maldives, to Paris to watch Fashion Week! And to Bordeaux to buy a winery! The winery will be named after you! Then we can drink wine made from our own winery!"

Looking at the Porsche outside the window, Xie Meilan felt that owning a winery in Bordeaux was not impossible. At most, it would just be a bit risky. Lu Jie was right. If you lived quietly, you could only earn hard-earned money. If you wanted to make big money quickly, you had to walk a tightrope.

"Okay, I'll listen to you and do whatever you say!" She agreed readily.

Lu Jie smiled and said, "Come on, let's have a toast! I wish the project all the best!"

"Cheers!" Xie Meilan tasted the red wine from Bordeaux and began to imagine what the wine brewed in her own winery would taste like.

For the next period of time, Xie Meilan followed Lu Jie's instructions and had to meet with major clients and sign contracts on her own. Otherwise, why would Lu Jie go through so much trouble?

At first, Xie Meilan enjoyed it very much, but gradually she began to worry, because what Lu Jie was doing next was no longer just tightrope walking. Many of his actions clearly crossed the line. If he was caught, he would have to go to jail.

But in the face of money, Xie Meilan quickly forgot her uneasiness and excitedly calculated every day how huge the profits she and Lu Jie would soon make.

That day, the two came to the office as usual. Xie Meilan was wondering whether she should take advantage of the happy day to tell Lu Jie about her pregnancy.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside, "Don't move, put your hands down!"

When they opened the door, they saw that a group of people in uniform had already controlled everyone in the company. Lu Jie and Xie Meilan turned pale immediately.
