Transmigrated into a female-oriented novel, and put an end to the domineering CEOs all over the city

Saturday, 11:30 a.m.

This is a private restaurant in the city center business district. The decor is in a modern Chinese style, with warm lighting. The tables are spaced far apart, so it doesn't feel crowded and you can't hear what the people at the next table are talking about.

Most of the people who come here to eat are either business guests or regular customers who don't want to be watched.

In a booth by the window, Lu Jingxiu looked down at his phone.

The wounds on his face were mostly covered with a thin scab, which was a bit darker than the surrounding skin.

Although it's not scary anymore, you can still spot it at a glance from a distance.

Logically, he should continue to rest at home today, but he simply doesn't have time to lie down.

The wealthy second-generation heirs who dominate the market are being led by An Jia and are showing signs of uniting as one. Although they haven't taken any concrete actions yet, this stance itself is a signal.

Of course, the children of officials are not to be trifled with either. Having done business in the market for so many years, they have plenty of connections with both businesses and the government.

Some people chose this option because they had a good relationship with officials, while others understood that siding with the authorities would bring more benefits, such as faster approvals or preferential policy support.

However, the division of the business community into two factions and internal strife will definitely affect the political achievements of his father and Tang Cheng's father.

Because the economic data is not good and the investment environment is being questioned, the leadership team must take responsibility.

The simplest and most effective solution is to have the leading figure in the monopoly business community step forward.

As long as the Chu family, the richest family in Bashi, makes a clear statement that they stand on the side of the government and maintain stability in all sectors, then the remaining rich second-generation heirs will not be able to cause any trouble.

It doesn't matter if they're not honest. The fact that the richest man has taken sides means that the big players in all industries are secure. As for the few who don't listen, the authorities have plenty of ways to teach them what cooperation is.

Therefore, Lu Jingxiu asked Han Xuanxuan to arrange a meeting with Chu Jin, the daughter of the Chu family.

I got the contact information from Han Xuanxuan.

Han Xuanxuan also understood Lu Shao's intention in inviting Chu Jin. Although she had a low opinion of Chu Jin, he was very efficient and immediately sent Chu Jin's WeChat to Lu Jingxiu.

Chu Jin politely accepted Lu Jingxiu's invitation.

He had just finished replying to Tang Cheng's message when a slight commotion came from the direction of the restaurant entrance.

Several male customers who were eating simultaneously looked up and their gazes drifted towards the door.

Lu Jingxiu looked up, put away his phone, and stood up.

A woman wearing a custom-made French-style fitted dress walked in.

The skirt is light apricot-colored, with a unique design that is shorter in the front and longer in the back. When walking, the skirt flutters, revealing a pair of straight, slender, and dazzlingly white legs.

She wore a pair of off-white strappy high heels, each step on the marble floor was steady and light.

The person who arrived was none other than Chu Jin, the daughter of the Chu family.

What surprised Lu Jingxiu was that Chu Jin was wearing light makeup today.

The last time I saw her at the banquet, she was wearing heavy makeup that exuded a powerful aura, with dark and black eyeliner and dark and red lipstick. She clearly has a good complexion, but she insisted on making herself look like a fighting rooster.

But today, she only lightly applied some eyeshadow and a layer of cherry pink lipstick, which made her already delicate face look absolutely beautiful and soft.

She's clearly a well-mannered and elegant young lady, completely different from the Chu Jin from last time.

"Miss Chu, please have a seat." Lu Jingxiu nodded politely and pulled out the chair opposite him.

Chu Jin nodded to him, her tone very polite: "Young Master Lu."

Then she gathered her skirt and sat down opposite him.

Lu Jingxiu waved, and a waiter jogged over and handed the menu to Chu Jin.

Chu Jin took the menu, opened it, glanced at it, casually picked out two or three dishes, and then pushed the menu to Lu Jingxiu.

Lu Jingxiu took the menu, didn't look at it, and directly told the waiter, "Bring us all the signature dishes."

The waiter took away the menu, said "Please wait a moment," and turned to leave.

Lu Jingxiu picked up the lemon water on the table, took a sip, then put down the cup and looked up at Chu Jin across from him.

Not right.

Chu Jin is acting very strangely today.

He had mercilessly mocked her at the banquet that day. Given Chu Jin's vengeful nature, why was she being so polite today?

Moreover, the restaurant he chose today, although highly rated, is only mid-to-high priced, with most dishes costing around five or six hundred yuan.

He's the secretary's son, and now, with the An family stirring things up behind the scenes, this is the highest-class restaurant he can afford to go to.

He could afford to go to those private restaurants where a meal costs tens of thousands of yuan, but it was inconvenient for him to go. Going there would be like providing material for An Jia.

This is what made him feel most uneasy.

What kind of personality does Chu Jin have?

Based on this young lady's usual behavior, she should have already started mocking the prices on the first page of the menu.

"Does this place even deserve to be my restaurant?"

Then, they will most likely get up and leave immediately, without even sitting for a second longer.

Not to mention ordering food, what kind of restaurants does she usually eat out at?

Lu Jingxiu took out his phone, opened Han Xuanxuan's chat window, and quickly typed a line of text.

Lu Jingxiu: What kind of restaurants does Chu Jin usually go out to eat at?

Han Xuanxuan: She won't even go in if the amount is less than six figures.

Lu Jingxiu: What if she comes in?

Han Xuanxuan: That probably means she's fallen in love with you.

They replied very quickly.

Lu Jingxiu turned off his phone screen and put it back on the table.

So, Chu Jin not only came, but also sat down and ordered food.

Not only that, Chu Jin was also very polite to him today, which was so unlike her personality.

Did he come to his senses after mocking himself that night? Did he change his ways?

A thought suddenly flashed through Lu Jingxiu's mind. Although he felt it was a bit outrageous, his heart still beat faster. After thinking about it, he decided to test it out.

"Miss Chu," he said with a slight smile, "are you aware of President Fu's situation?"

Upon hearing this name, Chu Jin almost lost control of her expression.

Mr. Fu, Fu Xingzhou.

The original owner, Chu Jin, had been smitten with her childhood sweetheart for over a decade, a man she loved to the point of obsession and was willing to pay any price to have.

Memories of the original owner going to find Fu Xingzhou flooded back uncontrollably.

She dressed up carefully and waited for him downstairs at the Fu Group building, only to be met with a cold shoulder.

At the banquet, I approached her with a wine glass in hand, but she ignored me.

I sent countless messages to Fu Xingzhou, but they were neither read nor replied to.

At the banquet, he was publicly humiliated by that innocent-looking female lead, becoming a laughing stock.

Then she learned the next day that on the very night she transmigrated, Fu Xingzhou had been livestreamed doing *that* to a girl and had been arrested.

Thinking of this, Chu Jin couldn't help but reveal an extremely obvious expression of disgust, speechlessness, and "What the hell is this?"

Even if someone is incredibly good-looking, they're still a criminal at heart.

How did the original owner even fall for this domineering CEO who's all brain and mind and no brain? What did she see in him?

Is he a lawless outlaw? Does he need at least three years of experience?

She felt that her first task after transmigrating was not to inherit the Chu family, but to quickly clean up the original owner's history of being a sycophant.

She regained her composure, picked up her water glass, and said calmly, "I know, I've been arrested."

Lu Jingxiu's eyebrows twitched slightly.

So calm?

Didn't they used to be so enthusiastic about their relationship, and everyone in the industry knew about it?

In the elite socialite circle of Ba City, everyone knows that the eldest daughter of the Chu family has been chasing after Fu Xingzhou for years, abandoning all sense of shame, dignity, and self-respect. She is a living, breathing example of a sycophant's blood and tears.

He was so desperate for Fu Xingzhou that he got slapped across the face at the banquet and didn't dare utter a sound, sitting there drinking alone all night.

Now that Fu Xingzhou has been arrested, she just casually said one sentence?

"Miss Chu," Lu Jingxiu smiled and tentatively asked, "I heard that President Fu is your childhood sweetheart. Would you like me to help you get him out of trouble? Although the crime is serious, it's not entirely impossible with a little effort."

Chu Jin raised her eyes, glanced at him, and then gave a polite smile: "Thank you for your kindness, Young Master Lu. He deserved it."

Lu Jingxiu's heart raced the moment he heard the answer.

Under what circumstances would a sycophant suddenly stop licking their boots?
