Chapter 93 - 93: Lu Yu’s Arrangement
Song Hua’s purpose for coming here this time had been achieved. She had made Lu Yu have a bad impression of the two of them. After that, she stayed for a while to chat before leaving.
After Song Hua left, Lu Yu’s eyes darkened and his eyes were filled with ferocity.
Zhou Jing walked over and advised Lu Yu. “Lu Huai is a good son. However, he still has bad taste in women.
“The future mistress of the Lu Corporation has to at least be worthy of the Lu family.”
“I think Lu Li’s choice of marrying Ling Xue is a good one. That woman is obedient and sensible, and her identity is worthy of our family.”
“But Pei Xin and Xu Lian’s statuses are nothing.”
“As long as I’m alive, these two women can forget about entering the Lu family!” Lu Yu’s face turned even colder.
Zhou Jing rolled her eyes and continued to persuade him. “Lu Huai is getting older and has his own plans. Sometimes, he doesn’t even listen to you, and you’re his father for goodness sake! But the company is in his hands now. Even if he doesn’t want to listen to you, there’s nothing you can do. How about this? We should let Lu Li work in the company. If Lu Li performs well in the company and wins the votes of the company’s directors, Lu Li will have more say in the company and can help you.”
Zhou Jing’s words hit the nail on the head.
Although Lu Huai was his son, Lu Huai had more shares than him.
After Lu Huai came of age, the Lu Corporation was fully managed by him.
Many of the old men who had followed Lu Yu in the past had been replaced.
Compared to Lu Huai, Lu Li was much more obedient.
Lu Yu nodded and agreed to Zhou Jing’s suggestion.
“Let Lu Li start work tomorrow.” Lu Yu said.
Zhou Jing agreed happily, “Okay, I’ll tell Lu Li.”
Then Zhou Jing went to find Lu Li, only to find out that Lu Li was looking for Pei Xin’s residence.
Zhou Jing was furious. She called Lu Li and told him to come home within half an hour.
Lu Li had always listened to Zhou Jing. Thus, he came home immediately.
Zhou Jing brought Lu Li to the study and they whispered to each other.
“When will you let go of Pei Xin?” Zhou Jing asked him.
Lu Li quickly explained, “I did. 1 only looked for her because 1 wanted to take revenge on her… And Ling Xue needs her kidney. I need to know where Pei Xin is to help Ling Xue.”
Zhou Jing stared at Lu Li coldly. Her eyes seemed to be able to tell what Lu Li was thinking.
“I’m your mother. How can I not know what you’re thinking? Pei Xin is your first love. You invested so much into that relationship, it’s impossible for you to let go of her so easily.
“No matter what, if a man doesn’t have status, no woman will like him. If you continue like this, you’ll break Ling Xue’s heart, and the company will fall into Lu Huai’s hands.
“Now that your father is still alive, Lu Huai still has to listen to what he says. But what if your father dies? Would we still have a place in the Lu family?”
Lu Li looked a little flustered. “Mom, what are you talking about? Dad is healthy. Why would he die so soon?
Zhou Jing snorted. “There are many people who die in accidents nowadays. There are car accidents and sudden deaths. How sure are you that he will live to a hundred? Besides, even if your father can live forever, Lu Huai is still in control of the company. He’s even slowly removing Lu Yu’s people from the company. When you stop worrying and want to take control of the company in the future, there will be no place for you in the company anymore.”
Lu Li suddenly remembered that Lu Huai had stopped him many times because Lu Huai had real power in his hands. Other than his monthly allowance, he had no right to manage the company.
If he could also enter the company and prove his ability to everyone, perhaps he would also be able to get the support of the company’s seniors and would no longer need to be at Lu Huai’s beck and call.
This way, no matter what he did, Lu Huai would have no right to question him.
Thinking of this, Lu Li felt a burst of energy.
He looked at Zhou Jing with a burning gaze. “I’ll do it. I’ll work hard in the company. I want to do better than Lu Huai.”
Zhou Jing was very satisfied seeing that Lu Li had pulled himself together.
On the other hand, Pei Xin returned home and made dinner for Ling Lin. She even told Ling Lin a bedtime story. Pei Xin only returned to her room after Ling Lin fell asleep..
