Divine fortune teller and traditional Chinese medicine doctor
Chapter 108: Trapped Both Son-in-Law and Son
Sun Jiancheng and the others who came with him all turned to look at the person who was speaking.
When they saw this person, they were almost simultaneously stunned. Sun Jiancheng was so shocked that his body trembled, and he quickly went over: "Oh my! Mayor Cui?! You're here too? This is really..."
However, the man who was called Mayor Cui by Sun Jiancheng ignored him completely and walked straight toward the old man Li Mu who was standing behind Lu Ming.
"Master Li, I never expected to run into you here!"
The man walked up to Li Mu with great respect and enthusiasm, and shook hands with Li Mu with a smile on his face.
"Hello Mayor Cui, yes, what a coincidence, you're here for dinner?" Li Mu smiled and shook hands with the other party.
Yes, this person is Cui Zhenglin, the vice mayor of Qianlong City.
This scene left Sun Jiancheng and the others completely dumbfounded, as was Lu Ming, who was standing next to Li Mu.
She couldn't help but be amazed; this Dr. Li had such a wide network of connections!
The eldest son of the prestigious Wang family is his apprentice and listens to his every word.
Now even the deputy mayor is so respectful and polite to him?
Sun Jiancheng's father, Lao Sun, who had always looked down on Li Mu, was also shocked at this moment, his eyes wide and his mind buzzing.
In his opinion, it was already surprising that the poor old Li could get to know the CEO of the Lu Group, but now even the deputy mayor knows him. Not only do they know each other, but their relationship seems to be quite special!
Today's incident was originally caused by his attempt to show off in front of Li Mu and regain face. Now, his attempt to show off has backfired, not only ruining his son-in-law's life but also causing him to lose face completely!
He might even ruin his son's life today!
At this moment, Lao Sun's blood pressure soared, and he felt unsteady on his feet.
Sun Jiancheng and the others sensed something was wrong.
They never expected to run into Vice Mayor Cui today.
What was even more unexpected was that the old man who was with Lu Ming and looked like a poor, humble person actually had such a good relationship with Vice Mayor Cui.
Sun Jiancheng immediately felt sweat beading on his forehead.
"Hehe, yes, there just happens to be an occasion today. Master Li, what brings you here?"
Cui Zhenglin asked with a smile.
"Ms. Lu is my friend. She treated me to dinner, and I happened to run into this old man, Mr. Sun, whom I met in the park, and then..."
Li Mu then briefly recounted the events to Cui Zhenglin.
"Hello, Mayor Cui."
After Li Mu finished speaking, Lu Ming smiled and shook hands with Cui Zhenglin to greet him.
"Good day, Mr. Lu. You did the right thing today! Whether managing a company or administration, rules and principles are essential. I've long heard that the president of the Lu Group is young, capable, and strict in his management; seeing you today, I can confirm that he truly lives up to his reputation!"
Cui Zhenglin praised Lu Ming highly.
Upon hearing Vice Mayor Cui praise Lu Ming, Sun Jiancheng, who was standing there, felt a sense of foreboding.
The people who came with him even wanted to flee the scene.
At this moment, Cui Zhenglin turned around and looked at Sun Jiancheng with a cold gaze, sternly rebuking him: "Director Sun, your own relative violated the regulations, and instead of properly disciplining him, you use your official power to threaten General Manager Lu? Who gave you this power? The people gave it to you! What is the power the people gave you for? It's for protecting them, not for bullying them!"
"...Yes, yes, Mayor Cui, you're right! I was confused for a moment! I know I was wrong! I'll never do it again!"
Sun Jiancheng quickly bowed and nodded in apology.
"Hmph, and you lot too! Don't think I don't recognize you just because you're keeping your heads down! Knowing that Sun Jiancheng is making a mistake, not only do you not stop him, but you also encourage his tyranny?"
Cui Zhenglin then pointed at and reprimanded several junior department leaders who had come with Sun Jiancheng.
"...Um...Mayor Cui, I...I really didn't know Director Sun was here to handle this kind of thing..."
One of the men in the hat explained nervously.
"Alright! Stop explaining! Go back and cooperate with the investigation! If there's nothing wrong, we won't wrongly accuse you; if there is, none of you will escape!"
Cui Zhenglin interrupted the other party directly and angrily rebuked him.
For these officials, the words "accept investigation" are probably the most terrifying words.
Almost none of their buttocks are clean.
Sun Jiancheng and his men were now so desperate they wanted to die that they dared not utter a sound and could only slink away in disgrace.
Old Sun was helped away in a disheveled state by his daughter and son-in-law.
"Mayor Cui, thank you for upholding justice for us!"
After Sun Jiancheng and the others left, Lu Ming sincerely thanked Cui Zhenglin.
"Mr. Lu, there's no need to be so polite. Sun Jiancheng and his ilk deserve to be punished for their outrageous behavior. I didn't expect you to know Master Li as well?"
Cui Zhenglin smiled slightly and asked.
"Yes, Dr. Li is my savior."
"Haha, Master Li is also my savior!"
Seeing these two people, one a business tycoon and the other a high-ranking official, treating him with utmost respect and gratitude, how could Li Mu not be pleased?
Before he received the inheritance, such a thing would have been unimaginable even in his wildest dreams.
Perhaps this is what they call a life-changing turnaround.
After a brief chat with Li Mu, Cui Zhenglin left, and Lu Ming led Li Mu to a luxurious private room.
The waiter had already laid out a table full of delicacies in the private room. This was the first time Li Mu had ever eaten such a high-class meal.
"Just the two of us eating?"
Li Mu looked at the table full of delicious food and asked Lu Ming.
"Yes, hehehe, I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I just prepared all the hotel's signature dishes."
Lu Ming chuckled as she spoke.
"Uh, this is such a waste. To be honest, I've lived for 68 years and this is the first time I've ever eaten at such a high-class place, hahaha!" Li Mu laughed heartily.
"Dr. Li is just too modest. You've been incredibly kind to me; what's a meal compared to that? If you'd like, you can come here every day. But don't worry, all expenses will be on my personal account, hehehe!"
Lu Ming said with a smile.
As her health improved, Lu Ming's mood also improved, and she often had a smile on her face.
She felt inexplicably happy, especially when she was with Li Mu.
"Dr. Li, if it weren't for your relationship with Mayor Cui, I really might not have been able to withstand that Director Sun's tyranny! I'd like to propose a toast to you!"
After they were seated, Lu Ming personally poured red wine for Li Mu, then stood up and raised her glass in a toast.
"Mr. Lu, you don't need to be so polite. However, you're not fully recovered yet, so please try to drink less alcohol."
Li Mu also raised his glass and clinked it with Lu Ming's.
"Okay, sure."
Lu Ming nodded and took a sip of red wine.
"To be honest, I really admire you. It's remarkable that such a young girl can manage such a large family group so well!"
After taking a sip of wine, Li Mu did not hesitate to praise Lu Ming.
Hearing Doctor Li praise her, Lu Ming felt a surge of joy.
"Hehe, thank you for your compliment. Actually, there are a lot of troubles and a lot of pressure in the company, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten such a serious illness at such a young age. For example, I recently encountered a very troublesome matter."
Lu Ming chuckled, then frowned and said.
"This headache of yours...maybe I can help you solve it."
After taking a bite of food, Li Mu looked at Lu Ming and said.
Yes, he had already silently cast a divination, and after interpreting the divination, Li Mu couldn't help but feel his heart race.
Because if we can help with this, we might make a fortune!
