Lu Qingye stood at his spot, watching as Meng Chuyuan entered the airport. He only returned to his car after her silhouette had gradually disappeared from his sight.

He closed the car door and looked out the window for a while. Then, he retracted his gaze and said to Assistant Yang, “Let’s go.”

Assistant Yang started the engine, drove the car out of the parking range, then left the airport.

Perhaps sensing that Lu Qingye was a little distracted, Assistant Yang stole a few glances at him through the rearview mirror and was quickly caught red-handed.

Lu Qingye inadvertently looked up and realized that Assistant Yang was looking at him.

After Assistant Yang was accidentally discovered, he immediately looked away guiltily and pretended to be calm as he stared ahead.

Due to him having made too many small gestures, Lu Qingye found it hard to ignore him. He frowned and asked, “Do you have something to say?”

Hearing Lu Qingye talk to him, Assistant Yang’s tense body relaxed a little. He had a smile on his face, and there was a hint of vigilance in his expression.

After a long while, Assistant Yang glanced at him through the rearview mirror and asked tentatively, “CEO Lu, can I say something that has nothing to do with work?”

Seeing that Assistant Yang was speaking in riddles, Lu Qingye’s curiosity was piqued.

He knew that Meng Chuyuan had talked to Assistant Yang in private last night. Seeing Assistant Yang’s hesitant look, Lu Qingye wondered if it had anything to do with their conversation last night.

Lu Qingye slowly said, “Tell me about it.”

With his permission, Assistant Yang cleared his throat and said carefully, “Are you and Madam dating now after the marriage?”

After Assistant Yang finished speaking, Lu Qingye was silent for a few seconds, his eyes filled with confusion.

He did not seem to have found an answer to this question.

Seeing that Lu Qingye did not speak for a long time, Assistant Yang added softly, “I observed that there seemed to be new developments in your relationship with Madam.”

Assistant Yang wondered if he had missed out on an important segment of their relationship when Lu Qingye had returned to the country last time.

There was a hint of curiosity in Lu Qingye’s calm expression as he questioned,

“What sort of developments?”

“Don’t you think that it seems like the two of you are dating each other?”

Previously, Assistant Yang felt that there was something wrong with Lu Qingye’s attitude towards Meng Chuyuan. It was just that Lu Qingye’s behavior at that time was very indifferent, and there was no news from Meng Chuyuan’s side, causing him to have too little information.

As they reconvened after their marriage this time, Assistant Yang could clearly feel that their relationship seemed to have changed. As for what the change was, he could not tell for the time being.

Lu Qingye raised his eyebrows slightly, and an imperceptible gentleness flashed across his eyes. His voice was slightly cold. “Did it seem so?”

“Somewhat.” Assistant Yang nodded affirmatively with a smile on his lips. “I think there’s still some space left for you to close up with Madam.”

The love between the two of them right now seemed too pure which, for adults, might be a little boring. However, Assistant Yang felt that this was just right for these two young and inexperienced lovebirds.

After all, they were two newbies in love. There had to be a slow, step-by-step progression.

Hearing Assistant Yang’s teasing, Lu Qingye reminded him without changing his expression, “Keep your focus on your work.”

“Oh.” He had no choice. After all, he knew about the circumstances of their marriage. He would feel terrible if he didn’t ask about it.

After Assistant Yang’s curiosity was suppressed, it was Lu Qingye’s turn to be curious. He frowned slightly and asked calmly, “What did she say to you last night?”

Seeing Lu Qingye ask about this, Assistant Yang was a little shocked. “Madam didn’t tell you?”

When Assistant Yang heard this, he suddenly sat up straight and said happily, “Then I can’t tell you either.”

Lu Qingye:

The night was dark, and the dim starlight was hidden in the clouds. The green plants in the courtyard swayed with the cold night wind.

Qi Yan walked out of her villa. Feeling the cold wind, she pulled her windbreaker closer and tightened her belt.

She stood under the eaves and looked up at the dark night sky, looking lost.

Just now, Qi Yan had insisted on not getting married in front of her family, which made Qi Rongsheng so angry that he almost swallowed his medicine. Then, Qi Rongsheng told her to get lost. She didn’t want to stay there for a second longer either.

Qi Yan retracted her gaze and walked down the stairs resolutely.

“Sister…” Suddenly, Qi Zhen chased after her.

Upon hearing Qi Zhen’s voice, Qi Yan did not stop. Instead, she quickened her footsteps.

Grandma Qi was reprimanding her son inside and asked Qi Zhen to go out and check on Qi Yan. However, Grandma Qi did not know that this pair of half-siblings was not at all harmonious in private.

Qi Zhen called after her a few times, but she did not respond. In the end, he was a little anxious and called her name. “Qi Yan.”

Seeing that she had slowed down, Qi Zhen immediately ran up to her and stopped her.

After Qi Yan’s path was blocked by him, she was forced to stop. She looked up at him coldly and said in an extremely displeased tone, “What do you want?”

Qi Zhen glanced at her and said firmly, “I think you might have misunderstood. I have no intention of inheriting the company.”

Qi Yan sneered. “Just because you don’t have any thoughts doesn’t mean your mother doesn’t.”

He replied to Qi Yan expressionlessly, “My mother is not the kind of person you think she is.”

“I don’t care what kind of person your mother is. If the two of you know what’s good for you, stand aside.” Qi Yan did not hide anything and told him candidly. “This is a battle between me and Qi Rongsheng.”

She knew that Qi Rongsheng favored males over females. Everything he did now was to pave the way for his son. Qi Yan also knew that the company had been laying off employees in the past few years. Their goal was to kick out everyone that was on her mother’s side.

However, for the time being, Qi Rongsheng did not have the guts to take any concrete action. He could only slowly weaken their forces.

If these shareholders were all kicked out by Qi Rongsheng, it would be difficult for Qi Yan to fight for the position of heir in the future.

The next morning, the morning fog enveloped the ground. The air was slightly damp and cold.

Lu Jinsen was dressed neatly and dragging his heavy suitcase downstairs. Just as he was about to go out to film the variety show, Lin Youjuan walked up to him from the dining room with a large pile of things.

Seeing that there were many lunch boxes stacked in her hands, Lu Jinsen quickly went up to help her share some of the burden.

Lu Jinsen looked down at the things in his hand and could not help but frown. He asked curiously, “Mom, why are you packing these things?”

“For you to bring them with you to the filming of the variety show.” Knowing that Lu Jinsen was going to film a variety show today, Lin Youjuan specially got someone to prepare pastries and fruits early in the morning and even had them make some soup.

“You don’t have to prepare these for me.” When Lu Jinsen heard that, his frown deepened.

“Who said it’s for you?” Lin Youjuan rolled her eyes at him. She placed the things on the table and put them all in a bag. Then, she said to him, “I prepared it for your sister-in-law.”
