Chapter 216 Rival Warning! Don't stare at my wife!
"This must be Mr. Lu from Haishi. It's a pleasure to meet you."
He Yan was a little confused, but she quickly regained her composure.
She knew that Bo Yuanzhou wanted to win over Lu Yanze, and even had designs on his own daughter, all in order to win over Bo Siheng and take control of the Bo family in the power struggle within the family.
He Yan knew that Lu Yanzhe was also a proud person and would not be easily persuaded.
This is probably also a test for his development in Beijing.
"I didn't know you were discussing business, so I just barged in."
He Yan nodded to Lu Yanzhe, then turned to look at Bo Siheng.
There was a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
It was because he hadn't listened to her; not only did he forget his stomach medicine, but he also tried to secretly drink alcohol.
"It wasn't about business. Mr. Bo and I were just talking about his sudden marriage. I didn't expect Mrs. Bo to arrive so coincidentally. It's really fate."
Lu Yanzhe looked at He Yan, and the smile on his face deepened.
He never expected to see her here.
Although we only met a few times back then.
"Mr. Lu is much more talkative in front of my wife than he was just now."
Bo Siheng's expression was very displeased, feeling that Lu Yanzhe's words were too ambiguous.
He was puzzled and almost assumed that the two had known each other before.
But Lu Yanzhe's expression was flawless.
That would only make me look petty.
Bo Siheng's possessiveness towards He Yan was so petty that he felt everyone was coveting her.
"Mr. Bo, you're joking. Weren't we just talking about this topic?"
Lu Yanzhe's gaze lingered on He Yan seemingly casually.
His words, however, were extremely high-sounding and dignified.
"We've known each other for so many years, it's only natural to be curious when we suddenly hear you're getting married."
He Yan was also puzzled; Lu Yanzhe's behavior seemed too normal.
She had previously gone with her master to treat the old lady of the Lu family. They stayed in Haicheng for more than a month, and she would go every few days to give the old lady acupuncture treatment. She had met Lu Yanzhe before.
However, she was disguised at the time, so he probably didn't recognize her.
She didn't know much about Lu Yanzhe's character.
However, Madam Lu is a good person, and those she teaches will certainly not be bad.
"President Lu is a guest from afar. Ah Heng, as the hosts, we cannot neglect our guests."
He Yan didn't care about Lu Yanzhe's attitude.
She had no right to interfere in the marriage between the Bo and Lu families.
She only cared about Bo Siheng's health and helping him preserve the Bo family's business.
“You’re right, Madam. I will.”
Bo Siheng felt a pang of sadness, but he couldn't show it.
He and Lu Yanzhe are rivals, and he must always make sure that his weaknesses are not discovered by the other party, otherwise, he never knows when the other party will use them to attack him.
This is the experience he has gained from every hardship he has faced throughout his years in the business world.
Moreover, it's not her fault that others like He Yan.
That's because the people who like her have no moral boundaries; it's their problem.
“Since Mr. Lu will be settling here for a while, we will have many more opportunities to discuss that land.”
"No rush, that piece of land is what my grandmother has her eye on."
Lu Yanzhe narrowed his eyes, his smile tinged with amusement.
He has always enjoyed competing with Bo Siheng for first place since he was a child, although most of the competition was conducted in secret.
He also bears the heavy responsibility of the family's rise and fall, so he has never relaxed over the years.
From grades and rankings in school to business negotiations after growing up and going abroad.
Whatever achievements Bo Siheng attains, he must also attain.
This competition has never stopped.
"Actually, I came here because I have another very important matter to attend to."
"Oh, it seems we'll have plenty of opportunities to meet then."
Upon hearing this, Bo Siheng instinctively became wary.
Lu Yanzhe's gaze was extremely unsettling.
He looked at He Yan, whose expression also showed some surprise.
Bo Siheng had a gut feeling that Lu Yanzhe's purpose for this trip was not pure. His second uncle wanted to marry Jingning off to him in order to consolidate his power, seize the resources of the Bo family, and control the overall situation.
Who knows if Lu Yanzhe will agree to such an agreement?
Based on their long-standing acquaintance, his ambitions could only be greater than Bo Yuanzhou's.
Lu Yanzhe seemed to have seen through Bo Siheng's thoughts.
His possessiveness towards He Yan was too obvious.
"Yes, there will be many opportunities to meet, Mrs. Bo, please come along!"
As if she hadn't noticed his expression, she turned the conversation to He Yan.
He Yan looked surprised.
She and Lu Yanzhe seemed to have no connection.
However, since Old Mrs. Lu was once Master's patient, and now that he has passed away, it is only right that I take over the care of those patients. If anyone's condition relapses, I will also take over and continue the treatment.
She couldn't let her master's reputation fade away because of his passing.
"If Mr. Lu needs anything, my husband and I will certainly take care of you."
He Yan couldn't figure out what he meant, but his words were perfectly tactful.
It wasn't because of him.
It was because of Old Madam Lu.
"Xiaoyan, I'm all done here. You're so busy with work, let me take you home first."
Bo Siheng's hand on He Yan's waist suddenly tightened.
He felt that Lu Yanzhe was provoking him.
So even though the banquet wasn't over, he didn't want to stay any longer.
"Mr. Lu, please excuse me."
Before He Yan could react, Bo Siheng pulled her away from the banquet hall, and they left in a hurry.
She turned her head and saw the expression on his face, and then she suddenly realized.
Bo Siheng pursed his lips, his expression tense.
He was already feeling uneasy, fearing that his illness couldn't be cured.
If that's the case, you have to let go, no matter how painful it is.
So he always hoped to arrange her affairs well so that she could live a carefree life in the future. He added one item after another to his will. Apart from his grandmother and the Bo family, the only person he couldn't let go of was her.
Bo Siheng selfishly thought that he didn't want any man to have designs on He Yan.
"..."
He Yan could tell that Bo Siheng was jealous of Lu Yanzhe.
She opened her mouth, but said nothing.
He had a bit of a headache and felt a little helpless. He seemed to overthink things and make himself miserable.
However, He Yan could also sense that it was because he cared about her.
I decided not to expose him and let him scare himself.
the other side.
Seeing Bo Siheng leave, Bo Yuanzhou hurriedly took Jingning over to talk to her.
"I wonder what Mr. Lu's plans are lately? If needed, my daughter can entertain you on my behalf. She is still in the learning stage and needs Mr. Lu's guidance."
"Master Bo is very kind. I have only just come to Beijing and there are indeed many places I need to familiarize myself with."
Lu Yanzhe could guess Bo Yuanzhou's intentions.
His attitude was ambiguous, but he also clearly separated public and private matters.
"Then Mr. Lu needs a guide even more."
Without saying a word, Bo Yuanzhou presented his daughter.
Bo Jingning was a little nervous because she wasn't very familiar with the company's affairs yet.
"Mr. Lu, actually I..."
"Miss Jingning, are you aware of your brother's marriage to Miss He?"
Lu Yanzhe is not a scumbag and would not play with other people's feelings.
However, this did not prevent him from inquiring about some things from Bo Jingning.
Upon hearing He Yan's name, Bo Jingning stopped being nervous and, instead, seemed to have found an outlet, began to complain about her.
"I just found out too, but He Yan is a bad woman."
"So, Miss He was a substitute bride, and she has no feelings for your brother? She was just forced into this marriage?"
After listening to Bo Jingning's words, Lu Yanzhe quickly came up with a solution.
The smile on his face became meaningful.
No wonder Bo Siheng looked at him with such wariness.
Since they are only in name, there is no moral issue with me liking He Yan.
"Ms. Jingning, thank you for your justice."
