Chapter 228 It doesn't matter if others give you pain, Mr. Li is sweet enough
Lu Xingchen came out of the Lu family's old house, walked towards the black Bentley parked on the side of the road, then opened the passenger door and sat in.
Li Zhen in the car carefully looked at her expression for a moment, "Did you lose the argument?"
Lu Xingchen turned to look at him, "A miserable defeat."
Li Zhen touched her short hair and said, "Didn't you come here with the intention of losing?"
Yes, if she didn't lose, how could Lu Dingsheng have a say? But Lu Xingchen was silent for a moment and smiled, "But if I really let go of the argument, I might not be able to win against this old lady. The old ones are still the best."
Li Zhen smiled: "It's good that you dare to debate with a group of scholars alone, not to mention that we don't make a living by quarreling."
"But they were right in one thing. I know that what I did would make Lu Dingsheng embarrassed, but I still came here without hesitation."
Li Zhen thought for a moment, "Lu Dingsheng has never been an outsider. Whether you come or not, he is always in the game. Moreover, many things cannot be worried about unilaterally. For example, we all thought that your mother's divorce would go through some twists and turns this time, but Lu Wenli showed up and divorced herself. So once something happens, the people involved are all chess pieces, and they are also the ones who make the moves."
Lu Xingchen once again felt that Li Zhen was growing faster than her. The young man who had devoted himself to studying and starting a business back then, now stood with a sword in his hand, looking around, full of confidence, as if he could already become her guide.
Perhaps, as he said, he was more powerful than she thought.
Moreover, the matter cannot be judged unilaterally based on her imagination or the old lady's one-sided statement, because once the chess game with people as pieces begins, the chess pieces and the players are both in the game, and it is possible that the chess pieces will become the players during one of their moves.
Lu Xingchen felt more at ease when he saw Li Zhen, and he could tell him in a relaxed tone, "The old lady mentioned you just now. She knows your blood relatives within three generations, not eight generations. What she meant is that although you are very powerful, you are just an outsider with no background and a weak foundation. It is like hitting a rock with an egg if you want to compete with the Lu family with you."
Li Zhen listened to this and said indifferently: "Emperors of all dynasties also wanted to rule for thousands of years, but in the end, dynasties changed and times changed. Large family businesses seem to be deeply rooted, but the internal situation is not entirely so. Not to mention the changes in the outside world, from the perspective of the Lu family, in another ten or eight years or even shorter, the younger generation will rise, and the Lu family will inevitably face a major reorganization of forces. Whether the Lu family can withstand this reorganization at that time really depends on how stable its foundation is."
Lu Xingchen listened to this, and perhaps she had a vague feeling when she saw the increasingly stubborn Lu Dingjian and Lu Yize whose momentum was gradually overwhelming him at the dinner table just now.
If there had been no changes in her life experience, the Lu family many years later would have been the new situation of her and Lu Yiheng's generation, which would have been the same power change and cycle of Lu Dingsheng and Lu Dingjian's generation decades ago.
Thinking about this, she couldn't help but ask Li Zhen: "Do you think the two children running around in the yard in five years will fight over the property you left behind in thirty years?"
"Thirty years later, I'm only in my fifties, and they still can't compete with me."
Lu Xingchen didn’t think so before, but now she feels that most of the laughs in her life are provided by Li Zhen. “I can already see what a stubborn old man will look like in thirty years.”
Li Zhen smiled.
She then asked, "When you really can't work anymore, will you worry about your children fighting among themselves?"
Those were too far away. Li Zhen looked at her and said, "Rather than worrying about those things, I'm more worried about when the baby's father can successfully deliver them into the baby's mother's belly."
Lu Xingchen pursed her lips and tried not to laugh. She felt so upset when she had the argument at the Lu family just now, and now she felt so comfortable talking to Li Zhen. "How come you can always bring this up with everything else?"
"You mentioned the child first."
"But I didn't ask you to talk about giving birth to a child."
"Otherwise, what's the point of me just thinking about whether to fry or stew it if I haven't caught any prey yet?"
Lu Xingchen couldn't refute this analogy, so he could only point to the front and say, "Boss Li, please drive."
Li Zhen leaned on the steering wheel and saw her irresponsible look and shouted, "My child's mother, when can I eat meat? If you don't hurry, the children will be in a hurry to fight for the family property."
Lu Xingchen chuckled and reached out to push his head away, "Hurry up and drive your car!"
"I don't want to drive this car." Li Zhen started his daily routine of coaxing and nagging but refused to move.
Lu Xingchen said unhappily, "Are you with me just to do that?"
Li Zhen: "Not just for the sake of it, but I'm just too greedy."
You're so brave to admit it. Lu Xingchen smiled and said, "So, when you face me as your prey, you think about frying or stewing me all day long, right?"
“I never thought of stir-frying or stewing it.”
"So how do you want to eat?"
"Pan Fried Dumpling."
Lu Xingchen was stunned for a moment, her face flushed involuntarily. She pointed ahead and said, "Hurry up and drive your car."
It was another day of failed applications. Li Zhen reluctantly started the car and asked, "Where are we going now?"
"I'll go back to the company."
Li Zhen made her laugh out of anger: "Boss Lu, I have no credit but I have worked hard. At least, please include me in your itinerary."
Lu Xingchen looked at him distressedly for a while, but the matter to be dealt with was really urgent. She turned around, held his face and apologized, "I will accompany you after I finish the work at hand."
"If it's about sleeping with me, I'll reluctantly accept it."
"..." It seems that getting back together with the ex is also a disadvantage. If it was their first time dating, he would definitely not dare to be so shameless and blatant. Otherwise, when they were dating, she wouldn't have to take the initiative to facilitate their first night together.
But then again, she shouldn't have been so strict. After all, they had slept with each other. He was a normal man, and it's not that she didn't crave him. If it weren't for the fact that they had so much to do recently and they weren't so busy, she might have lost control a long time ago.
Lu Xingchen nodded quickly.
Li Zhen thought he had seen it wrong, so he turned around and confirmed with her: "You agreed?"
Lu Xingchen smiled with his eyes closed, and was touched by his expectant look. He nodded and promised, "I agree. When I finish the two cases on hand, we will... study cooking techniques together."
Li Zhen smiled. He was just making random plans as usual and had no idea what Lu Xingchen would think. Unexpectedly, it seemed to be successful. "What project? Let me show you."
"Stop!" Lu Xingchen scolded him with a smile, "Don't make my own business more tiring than managing two companies."
Li Zhen raised the corner of his mouth and stepped on the accelerator to leave the spot. "For that little bit of happiness and welfare, I would rather you make me more tired."
As he was talking, his cell phone rang. He picked it up and listened for a moment, then said, "Okay, I'll be there right away," and hung up. He then turned to her and said, "Let's go somewhere first."
"where to?"
Li Zhen looked ahead, thought for a moment, and answered truthfully: "The car I ordered for you has arrived."
Lu Xingchen was stunned for a moment, "Boss Li, you have already given us a car for the opening of our company."
"This time it's not from President Li." Li Zhen turned to look at him with a smile on his face and said, "It's from your boyfriend."
Lu Xingchen looked at him for a moment and smacked his lips. "Tsk, having a rich boyfriend will definitely dampen my motivation to strive for success. What if I just want to win without doing anything?"
"What can I do? At most I'll have to work harder. No matter how you lie, I'll let you win."
"..." Is this person driving a serious car being serious again? Lu Xingchen turned sideways and said, "Hey, I've already promised you that you can still change the subject."
Li Zhen laughed, "You have to go back and forth, otherwise you will forget it."
Lu Xingchen just wanted to ask, who said that President Li was aloof and abstinent? Was it that the public’s vision was not sharp enough, or was it that President Li’s personality collapsed?
