Rumor has it that the young master has a hidden illness

When Qin Duanduan returned to the company, she saw Lin Lulu and looked completely terrified.

"What's wrong?" Lin Lulu asked. "Did you run into your ex?"

"What ex-lover!" Qin Duanduan gulped down a large glass of water. "He's practically an old devil! He controlled me for so many years, and now he still wants to control me! And...did he just happen to run into me today, or does he know Jing Sichen? Could he really be that unlucky?"

Lin Lulu chuckled and said, "If you're scared, you can go back first. Anyway, the kids miss you quite a bit."

"No way!" Qin Duanduan immediately straightened her back. "You're right. Rather than spending your whole life fearfully running away, it's better to... bravely face the storm!"

Lin Lulu patted Qin Duanduan on the shoulder, "Then you'll have to face it yourself! I'm going to meet my first client."

"Don't you have any compassion?!" Qin Duanduan quickly grabbed her. "Can't you stay with me for a bit?"

"Woman," Lin Lulu lifted Qin Duanduan's chin, "Don't follow my example. Men will only slow you down when you draw your sword!"

Then, with a mysterious smile, he left her with a dashing back view.

Qin Duanduan stood there stunned, muttering, "She really took a lot of shock..."

**

Lin Lulu arrived at the agreed-upon location. She had checked the information and found that this Boss Wang rarely had business dealings with the Jing family, but usually had a lot of contact with the Lan family.

She was a little puzzled.

Although Kyoto's overseas market performance is not very good, it shouldn't be this bad.

"Oh! Miss Lin! I never expected that Miss Lin would be so beautiful at such a young age! I heard that you are highly educated. Someone as outstanding as you makes it impossible for ordinary people to live!" Boss Wang began to flatter her as soon as he arrived.

"Boss Wang is joking." Lin Lulu smiled. "I know it's impolite for someone like me, who's just started working here, to ask Boss Wang out so abruptly. Please forgive me, Boss Wang."

"Don't be so formal. You were introduced by Mr. Li, and he's been praising you to me for ages!" said Boss Wang. "Now that we've met, it's true, just one glance is enough to make me want to work with you!"

Lin Lulu remained calm, a faint smile still on her face.

She had heard Mr. Li say that this Mr. Wang was a natural businessman, but he had one flaw: he was a womanizer.

He has an exceptionally high sex drive.

She had made preparations before coming.

Lin Lulu poured Boss Wang a cup of tea and said softly, "Boss Wang, let's not talk about work today. I mainly wanted to make friends with you. If there are any good projects in the future, I hope you'll consider me. It's not easy to gain a foothold in a new company!"

"Of course!" Boss Wang took the tea Lin Lulu offered, rubbing his fingertips against hers. "Everyone loves beauty! I especially love interacting with beautiful women! But this tea isn't enough to make me happy. How about we drink some wine?"

"Yes!" Lin Lulu nodded. "We have good wine!"

As he spoke, he opened a wine box, and a bottle of fine wine was placed in front of Boss Wang.

Seeing Lin Lulu's generosity, Boss Wang was already all smiles.

It seemed that no matter what request Lin Lulu made at that moment, he would definitely fulfill it.

"Boss Wang, here, let me fill your glass!" Lin Lulu poured Boss Wang another glass of wine. "To be honest, I haven't been here long and don't have many connections yet. If Boss Wang thinks highly of me and could introduce me to a few more business partners, I would be extremely grateful and would definitely not treat Boss Wang unfairly!"

"Yes, yes! Absolutely!" Boss Wang downed his drink in one gulp, smacking his lips, already completely captivated by Lin Lulu's smile.

"Miss Lin, oh no, I'll call you Lulu!" said Boss Wang, "That sounds more friendly!"

Lin Lulu: "Okay!"

"Come on, Miss Lin, you drink too! I'll drink this one with you! That's how our deep revolutionary friendship was built!" said Boss Wang.

Lin Lulu responded, raised her glass, and was about to drink it all when the glass was snatched away from her hand with great force.

Looking up, what came into view was Jing Sichen's face.

"Young Master Lan!" Boss Wang jumped in fright. "Young Master Lan, what are you doing here?"

Jing Sichen: "Get lost!"

"Boss Wang," Lin Lulu quickly interjected, "and who is this?"

At the same time, she secretly tugged at Jing Sichen's sleeve, signaling him not to ruin what she was doing.

Jing Sichen glared at Lin Lulu, so angry he wanted to pick her up and take her away.

She was drinking with another man?

He's a man who looks like a pig!

In her heart, he was not only inferior to Yan Moshen, but he was even inferior to this pig?

"You...don't recognize him?" Boss Wang's face darkened considerably. "This is the famous Young Master Lan, Lan Ye!"

Lin Lulu seemed to suddenly realize something, "Hello, Young Master Lan."

"Miss Lin, I have something to attend to, so I'll take my leave now." Boss Wang said, then nervously bid farewell to Jing Sichen before quickly making his escape.

Lin Lulu clenched her fists and glared at Jing Sichen. "Why are you here? Don't tell me it was a chance encounter!"

"I sent people to protect you," Jing Sichen said. "As soon as I heard you were with this pig, I rushed over." His tone was domineering, without a trace of apology.

"Blue Night!" Lin Lulu was on the verge of a breakdown. "How many more things are you going to ruin for me?"

"Bad things?" Jing Sichen met her anger head-on. "You can tell me whatever you want to do, and I'll definitely take care of it for you! But you actually prefer to deal with that pig? What? You think you can do whatever you want just because you have that face? The way he looked at you just now was like he wanted to devour you! If I hadn't shown up, you were planning to get him drunk and then be defiled by him..."

"Snap—"

Lin Lulu was so angry that she was trembling all over, and she slapped him across the face.

This is the second time.

Jing Sichen covered his face, glared at Lin Lulu, and was about to go crazy.

How can there be such an unruly woman in the world?

"I won't allow it!" He grabbed her wrist. "I won't allow any man to take you from me!"

"Even if every man in the world died, I wouldn't be with you!" Lin Lulu roared. "Listen up! This isn't me being stubborn or anything. I won't allow you to get any closer to me! And don't even think about trying to get close to me or offering to protect me. I'm the future head of the Jing family; how many people protect me when I go out? Do I need your interference?"

Taking a deep breath, she continued, "I don't care how you got along with your ex-girlfriends, but I don't need your protection! Every time you show up, you're meddling and ruining all my plans!"

Then, she pushed him away and walked away.

"Boss Wang isn't as simple as he seems. His womanizing is all an act!" Jing Sichen said sharply. "Even if you want to get something from him, you'll only lose. Lulu, let me help you, okay?"

Lin Lulu: "Are you so sure I'll lose?"

Jing Sichen: "I just don't want you to get into any danger!"

"I'm already grateful that you're not causing trouble," Lin Lulu said coldly. "Young Master Lan, please stop focusing your energy on me. There's no future for us."

"It's my business that I like you." He stood in front of her. "If you don't like me, I'll still protect you. At least, give me the right to be your friend."

She glared at him. "What if I don't want to?"

"Then I'll just keep showing up like this, ruining all your plans," Jing Sichen said softly.

She sneered, "Are you threatening me?"

"You've left me helpless." He gripped her shoulders. "Lulu, you've driven me away and forbade me to get close to you. Besides pestering me relentlessly, I don't know what else I can do."

She looked at him, almost losing herself in his affectionate gaze.

It's always like this.

Driven by his own whims, he repeatedly disrupted her life.

He was the one who gave up first.

But in the end, she was burdened with all the sins.

"Let me go!" Her nose stung with tears; she never wanted to live these years of suffering again. "Tell me, what do you want in return for letting me go? Can't I even just not want to have anything to do with you anymore?"

"Lulu." He pulled her into his arms. "I don't know. I've never felt this way before! But from the moment I saw you, a voice inside me kept telling me not to miss you, that I had to hold onto you, otherwise I would regret it so much! Maybe... I'm really obsessed?"

"Did you ever think about me?" she cried, demanding. "Didn't you even consider how much pain I suffered in front of you?"

"But have you ever thought about it..." He cupped her face in his hands, wiping away her tears with his fingertips, "Without me, you might... be even more heartbroken?"

Lin Lulu surrendered.

He was still so skillful, so easily finding her weakness.

She hated herself for being so useless.

They've become so useless.

As long as he coaxed her, she would forget all his bad deeds and only remember his deep affection.

She had absolutely no idea what to do.

She felt like a fly with no clue where it was going, tired of flying and really unable to fly anymore.

A burning kiss landed on her, and she was powerless to resist. She was immersed in his kiss, sucking in his scent, which mixed with her tears. It was like a poison specially prepared for her, so that she could never escape his control for all eternity.

Sensing his increasingly unsteady breathing, she finally regained her senses, pushed him away, lowered her head, feeling both ashamed and resentful.

"I don't want you to leave me." He hugged her. "Lu'er..."

Lu'er.

Lu'er.

Tears welled up in her eyes again. She looked up at him and gave him a very faint smile.

"Have you thought this through?" she asked. "Being with me means facing a lot of challenges. Even though you're the heir to the Lan family, Grandpa might not approve of us being together. Can you, as the eldest young master, handle it?"

Jing Sichen raised an eyebrow. "Are you doubting my abilities?"

She didn't reply, and was held tightly in his arms. For a moment, she couldn't break free, and she also realized that she didn't want to.

She has been waiting for him all these years.

Now, she has finally waited for him. She has resentment, but she doesn't want to care about his hardships and hurt. She just wants to stay by his side.

Sensing that she had become more obedient, he hugged her tightly, afraid that if he let go, she would push him away.

"May I ask..." His tone held a rare hesitation, "Why did you suddenly accept me?"

"I can't get rid of it," she told the truth. "That's just my personality. Since I can't get rid of it, and I'm not that averse to it, I might as well accept it."

Jing Sichen frowned. "That's...it?"

Lin Lulu: "What else do you want? If you don't like it, then let go of me now. I have so many things to do!"

"That's it! That's it!" He quickly hugged her. "Compared to you always chasing me away, this is much better."

Lin Lulu suppressed a laugh, "Then you have to let go of me! You ruined my plans, and I still need to deal with that!"

Jing Sichen: "I'll handle it."

"No need," Lin Lulu shook her head. "This is my own business, I can handle it myself."

Then, meeting his eyes, she said, "You didn't really think I was going to seduce you just now, did you?"

"I don't like it." He said bluntly, "Even if you let him look at you for a second or smile at him, I'd want to kill him."

"I need to find someone I've been searching for for a long time through him," Lin Lulu said. "He's my only lead right now."

She learned that Mr. Wang's success over the years was related to the powerful backer behind him.

Someone once told him that his powerful backer was a woman, a very powerful woman, who was connected to the Jing family.

She felt that the person might be Jingrou's mother, who had been missing for so many years.

However, for Mr. Wang, this path is now completely blocked.

Meeting her clearly reproachful gaze, he chuckled dryly twice and said, "If you don't want me to help you directly, then I'll help you indirectly."

Then, she said, "Instead of trying to win over Mr. Wang, you should win over his wife and children. I've told you before, his philandering is just a facade; what he truly cares about are his wife and daughter."

"If he really cared that much about his wife and daughter, he would never get involved in anything dangerous," Lin Lulu analyzed.

Jing Sichen nodded; he liked this woman's intelligence.

"But if someone wants him to work sincerely and has his weaknesses, wouldn't they be afraid of him betraying them?" Jing Sichen said. "If you want to find his backers, try looking through his wife and daughters to see if anyone is threatening them."

Lin Lulu's eyes lit up. "This is indeed a way to do it without alerting anyone!"

Jing Sichen: "So, you can trust me completely and order me around as you please!"

"Blue Night." She shook her head. "I hope I can handle my own affairs, even if I'm not mature enough yet, it'll just be a little slower. After all, I'll need to take over the Jing family in the future, and that position isn't something I can just take over because I have Jing family blood. I need to overcome the difficulties they face, and that requires me to grow. And the person I'm looking for is a personal matter. I handle my own personal matters; that's my principle."

Jing Sichen stopped trying to persuade him and said, "If you need any help, be sure to tell me, okay?"

Lin Lulu: "Okay."

"Once things are settled here, I'll go back with you and personally propose to your grandfather," he said excitedly. "I want to marry you!"
