Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.
Chapter 124 You hired someone who spends money to gain attention
Beijing is bustling today.
#Safety hazards exist in the commercial street construction project of the Ji Group.
Just one news item caused an uproar. This was a project that everyone in Beijing wanted to get involved in two years ago, but it was swallowed up by Ji Ye. This made many people who were forced to withdraw gloat and watch the show.
But who in the capital could release such information? And who had the Ji family offended? These questions fueled their speculations.
at the same time.
The man in room 1314 sat on the hospital bed, his phone on speakerphone, a cigarette dangling from his mouth but not lit. "They've taken the bait."
Han Yue scoffed, "Didn't you go to a huge expense to recruit them?"
Ji Hancheng's lips curled into a meaningful smile. "Can't you win over the Lan family if you're unwilling to spend money?"
Han Yue was speechless. "That's quite an awareness. They've already received a stop-work notice. The losses are not small. If you don't catch the big fish, you'll end up with nothing."
The losses from halting such a large project for even a day or two are incalculable; this person is truly insane.
Then he added, "The news was leaked by the bodyguard you deliberately stabbed. This guy isn't afraid of death, so there's no point in arresting him. I quite like him. Your ex-wife is in the capital, and the Lan family will come sooner or later. Just wait and see. If you're going to rush to throw money around to make your presence felt, don't drag my wallet down with you."
Han Yue had already shaken his head. Just to see the Lan family, he made such a big fuss, practically offering himself up to them.
The bodyguard's use of the word "Miss" aroused suspicion in both Han Yue and Ji Hancheng, but they weren't entirely certain, so they wanted to get to the bottom of things.
Whenever there is suspicion, Ji Hancheng will definitely get to the bottom of things; that's just his nature.
Seeing that the man didn't seem worried after hanging up the phone, but rather calm and even had a hint of pleasure on his face, Xu Mingkai began to report the situation, "Young Master Ji, Lu Man's father, Xu Zhong, has late-stage lung cancer and doesn't have much time left. He's currently living on the 8th floor. As for Lu Man herself, she has been living a relatively stable life these past few years, running a dance training school in the capital and occasionally receiving invitations to give instruction at performances."
Originally, Xu Mingkai was supposed to investigate what Lu Man had said and done to her, but Miss Su, whom he had just sent out, brought her a pleasant surprise, saving him a lot of time.
He said coldly, "Call Lu Jinnan over."
Xu Mingkai turned around and went next door to call Lu Jinnan, who was still fast asleep. He had been playing King of Glory until midnight last night and was sleeping soundly. "Young Master Lu, Young Master Lu, wake up."
In my drowsy state, I felt a lot of noise. "You're so damn annoying, it's so noisy, let me sleep for a while."
Xu Mingkai thought, "You can still sleep when your butt is on fire? Lu Man is going to die."
Lu Jinnan muttered from under the covers, "What does this have to do with me? Let me know if you die."
Xu Mingkai really didn't want to wake this ancestor up; he was too tired. "Miss Lu has caused a huge disaster. Are you sure you don't want to go and check on her?"
She sat up abruptly, her hair a mess, still sleepy. The bright light was so bright she could barely open her eyes. She squinted and looked up at Xu Mingkai, asking, "What the hell? What did she do this time?" Hadn't things been peaceful these past two years?
"This might be a bit serious." Miss Lu has made a fatal mistake.
Upon hearing the seriousness of the situation, Lu Jinnan disregarded his image, threw off the covers, got out of bed, grabbed his phone, and saw it was 7 o'clock. He was on the verge of tears. This cousin of his always caused him trouble. He thought things had calmed down a few days ago and even talked to her a few more times. Now he really wanted to slap her.
With bruises on his face and dragging his slippers into room 1314, Xu Mingkai followed behind.
As soon as Lu Jinnan entered, he sat down on the sofa, scratched his messy hair, and said impatiently, "What did she do now?"
Ji Hancheng's face was tense, his anger visible to the naked eye. He did not answer Lu Jinnan's question. Xu Mingkai, who knew better, explained, "Two years ago, Miss Lu not only pushed her unborn child onto Young Master Ji, but also went to the Young Madam to show off. Now the Young Madam and Miss Su both think that Young Master Ji has a child and a wife. The misunderstanding is huge."
Xu Mingkai guessed that Young Master Ji was already on the young mistress's blacklist.
Hearing this, Lu Jinnan's temples throbbed. He recalled the scene when he personally went to talk to Lu Man that day, hoping she would behave herself. He even specifically asked her about this matter. What did she say? She said no. Damn it, she actually believed him. Did she think he was a fool?
This is a huge misunderstanding. The mistress, heavily pregnant, went to the wife and told her, "I'm pregnant with your husband's child." Damn, she's been watching too many TV dramas.
Lu Jinnan rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on. "What do you want to do? They rarely contact our family anymore. My mother hasn't seen them in a long time either. Lu Man came to my ward a few days ago, and she looked a bit different." Lu Jinnan had never been so serious before.
He couldn't bring himself to plead for Lu Man any further. Ji Hancheng had already let Lu Man off the hook enough times, and he had given his grandfather and him a lot of face. She had only herself to blame.
After pondering for a while, he said, "I want her to be disgraced and kicked out of the capital." He never expected that Lu Man had ever bragged in front of Tang Junyao.
Lu Jinnan remained silent for a moment, as if making a decision. He closed his eyes briefly, then said, "Fine, I have no objection." He was the only one who could persuade his own mother.
Three hours later.
When Tang Junyao came in to check on the room, the atmosphere was a bit oppressive. Lu Jinnan looked worried, while Ji Hancheng had a cold and angry expression. Neither of them looked very good.
Noticing her enter, the man on the bed softened his tone, his hostility turning gentle. "I'm still a little dizzy," he said, looking rather pitiful.
Lu Jinnan wasn't in the mood for jokes today. His face was cold, and he looked very annoyed. "Sister-in-law, I'm fine today. No need for a checkup. I'm leaving."
He strode towards the door, opened it, and went out.
The interns who were standing next to him were always smiling and easy to get along with when they saw Lu Jinnan. But now, with his cold face, he was quite frightening, and no one dared to greet him.
The young master had already recovered, and Tang Junyao naturally wouldn't stop him from going wherever he wanted. However, the phrase "sister-in-law" that left people speculating was giving her a headache, and she couldn't explain it to her.
I can only pretend I didn't hear it and bury my head in the sand. "Dizziness is normal. Your symptoms are more severe than Lu Jinnan's. Don't shake your head or do strenuous exercise. These symptoms will disappear in about a week."
Ji Hancheng nodded slowly, his gaze towards her burning with urgency.
When Tang Junyao glanced at him, their eyes met. She immediately looked away, turned and left without saying another word.
As she reached the door, another doctor, driven by gossip, asked, "Dr. Tang, why does Young Master Lu call you 'sister-in-law'? Is your husband from a wealthy family?" See? Just as she suspected. She knew that whether she explained or not, people would speculate.
She simply replied, "No."
The female doctor persisted, "Really not? But he's Young Master Lu! How could he possibly show respect to just anyone? He seemed very respectful to you just now."
She didn't want to answer that question; the more she explained, the worse it would get. If she told one lie, she would have to find another to cover it up. She just smiled at the doctor.
Seeing that she didn't answer, the female doctor pouted unhappily, thinking that Tang Junyao was putting on airs and had nothing special about her.
There are many trending topics today. This morning's trending topic just disappeared, and another one appeared in the afternoon.
The entire industry was in an uproar over the photos of Lu Man in an ambiguous relationship with a certain leader, as well as her abortion records and even a transfer record of 5000 million yuan.
Immediately, people in the industry sneered at her and despised her, completely changing their previous attitude.
Even Su Xue, the gossip queen, called, "Yaoyao, have you seen the news?"
Tang Junyao wasn't very interested. She wasn't particularly concerned about other people's private lives. "What news? Which celebrity cheated again and you caught them red-handed?"
Su Xue was incredibly excited; you could practically feel it through the microphone. "It's Ji Shao's Lu Yueguang! Let me tell you, she's finished. Right now, the entire trending topics are filled with photos of her being kept by a sugar daddy. I heard the sugar daddy is some high-ranking official, and the child she's carrying belongs to him. There's even a 5000 million yuan transfer record. I don't know who even bothered to find out the details of her overseas accounts and put them up there. Lu Yueguang is completely finished now, and that official has been dragged down with her. I reckon the sugar daddy's wife will be after her. It's truly gratifying!"
Tang Junyao frowned slightly. Was it really that ruthless? Then she said slowly, "She's an adult. When she did this, she should have thought about the day that would come. No matter what choice she made, there would be corresponding problems waiting for her. The truth will always come out eventually. It was just wishful thinking."
Su Xue couldn't help but admire her best friend's calm and collected nature; nothing could stir any ripples in her heart. "Who do you think is dealing with this vixen?" she asked, still quite curious, wanting to know who the benevolent person was.
Tang Junyao couldn't help but chuckle at Su Xue's curiosity in investigating the truth. "Would you believe me if I told you it was Ultraman?"
"Haha, I was going to say it was a beautiful girl."
The two chatted idly for a few more minutes before hanging up.
