Chapter 34 Who's Trying to Conceive?
"You don't want it?" Lu Yunxi was shocked. "Who was asking me for it every day before?"
Zhang Liangzhi answered for him: "Preparing for pregnancy!"
Lu Yunxi: "..."
Rong Changqing: "..."
Lu Yunxi: "I see. He really is a good family man."
Rong Changqing: "Cough cough..."
Finally, Lu Yunxi asked Rong Changqing for the right to reside in Villa No. 7 and moved in that very night.
After Lu Qianqian finished cleaning up the dishes, she sat in the living room and checked WeChat, where she saw a new friend request.
"Xiuxiu" has added you as a friend.
Lu Qianqian couldn't figure out who this Xiuxiu was, so she clicked "accept" and asked.
Lu Qianqian: Hello, may I ask who you are?
Xiuxiu: Peng Xiue!
Lu Qianqian suddenly realized and immediately changed the nickname. The name "Xiuxiu" made her mistakenly think that she was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.
Peng Xiue: Recently I acquired some Zhang family shares, which together amount to about five percent.
Lu Qianqian: So, what do you want me to do?
Peng Xiu'e was very direct; she wanted to exchange her shares in Zhang's Group for Lu Qianqian's position as vice president of Peng's Group.
Lu Qianqian found it amusing that she thought she could trade a mere five percent of the shares for the position of vice president of such a large group; she was being far too naive.
Peng Xiu'e: Do you think Zhang's Real Estate shares are so easy to acquire? Or do you think my money grows on trees? Lu Qianqian, don't be greedy.
Lu Qianqian: Auntie, don't get agitated. Zhang's shares aren't really that useful to me. I can give them to you, even including the 10% I own. All I want is for Zhang's to go bankrupt.
Peng Xiue: ...I understand, please give me some more time.
Lu Qianqian: Don't worry, I'll talk to President Peng about the vice president position you wanted.
Peng Xiu'e: It's been a pleasure working with you.
Lu Qianqian locked her phone and stared blankly out the window. What she wanted was very simple: for the Zhang family to go bankrupt.
She could overlook Rong Wanru's actions as long as Rong Wanru didn't bother her again.
As for Zhang Shengqin, she perfectly embodies the proverb: "If I ever hold power, I will slaughter all the dogs who have wronged me!"
"What are you thinking about?" A gentle voice came from beside me.
Lu Qianqian snapped out of her daze and smiled at him: "Are you really going to let me go to Grandma Lu's birthday banquet?"
Rong Changqing sat down next to her and casually peeled an orange: "Do you want to go?"
Now that there was no one else around, Lu Qianqian had no other concerns: "I don't really want to go, and I don't know anyone there."
Rong Changqing fed her a segment of the peeled orange.
Lu Qianqian opened her mouth to eat, but the next second her face scrunched up: "It's so sour!"
Rong Changqing chuckled rather unkindly: "If it's sour, don't eat it."
Lu Qianqian protested, "You were the one who gave me the food!"
"Hmm, let me show you whether it's sour or sweet."
"Your sister!"
Rong Changqing loved her flustered little expression so much that he couldn't help but reach out and hug her: "Let's go take a look. My dad should be here that day too."
Lu Qianqian asked, "You want me to see them first, so I won't be so scared when I meet my in-laws later?"
A strange glint flashed in Rong Changqing's eyes, and after a long while, he finally answered, "Mm."
Lu Qianqian nodded: "Okay, I'll go with my dad then."
Rong Changqing replied, "Okay, I'll prepare a formal dress for you."
……
Three days later, Mr. Lu received an invitation to the Lu family's birthday banquet, and he was completely stunned.
Xu Rushi was also very happy: "This is the happiest thing in a while. The gifts we sent out before were not wasted. You have to perform well at this banquet. If we are added to the Lu family genealogy, we will have the entire Lu family as our backing. Let's see who dares to bully us!"
Even Rong Changqing couldn't!
"This invitation is strange." Lu Kai stared at the invitation, completely shocked. "It invites Lu Qianqian and her family, which means the real invitee is Lu Qianqian, not us?"
"What?!" Xu Ru was shocked. She snatched the invitation and saw that it really was Lu Qianqian's name. "How is this possible?"
Lu Kai carefully snatched the invitation back: "Be careful, don't damage it. Who cares whose name is on it, as long as we can go."
Xu Ru was very indignant: "Why should we use Lu Qianqian's face? Have you forgotten? If it weren't for her, how could Tingting have been detained?"
She could never swallow this insult.
Lu Kai comforted her, "It's probably because of President Peng's influence. After all, he's the king of soy sauce in the country. Even if you're unhappy, you can only keep it to yourself at this banquet. Without Lu Qianqian, how could we get in?"
"Hmph!" Xu Rushi's eyes hardened. "I want to see what President Peng will do when he finds out she's hooking up with Rong Changqing!"
"Don't cause trouble," Lu Kai warned her. "Lu Qianqian now has President Peng and Rong Changqing behind her, which is advantageous to us!"
Xu Rushi was so angry she gritted her teeth: "All you care about is your company! Your daughter's still locked up!"
Lu Kai's voice suddenly turned cold: "Without the company, would you be where you are today?"
Xu Rushi was speechless for a moment and reluctantly stopped the conversation, but in her heart she was thinking about how to prank Lu Qianqian at the banquet.
……
The Lu family matriarch's birthday banquet was very grand, far surpassing Rong Wanru's birthday celebration. Business tycoons from all over the world attended, and even many high-ranking political officials were present.
That's why Lu Kai went to great lengths to obtain an invitation. After all, coming to a place like this and making connections with a couple of powerful figures could benefit his future development.
The banquet was held at the Sihai Pavilion, the city's most luxurious hotel.
This place uses a membership card system, and non-members are not allowed to enter, but Lu Kai tried everything but still couldn't get a membership card.
At this moment, he and his wife waited anxiously outside the hotel. Xu Rushi, wearing a blue dress, kept touching up her makeup: "What's wrong with Lu Qianqian? Why isn't she here yet?"
Lu Kai, carrying gifts, looked at the endless stream of people in front of the gate and really wanted to go up and build a relationship: "I'll give her another call."
After saying that, he picked up his phone and dialed Lu Qianqian's number. Soon, Lu Qianqian's lazy voice came through: "Coming, don't rush me."
He said four words and hung up the phone, leaving Lu Kai dumbfounded.
Xu Rushi was furious: "Look at her attitude now, it's completely outrageous!"
Lu Kai was also very angry and felt humiliated.
At the same time, a sleek Ferrari pulled up in front of them, and Lu Qianqian stepped out with graceful poise. She wore a long, ink-wash lotus-patterned cheongsam-style dress, her long hair pulled back, and her light makeup perfectly accentuated her elegant demeanor, making her appear ethereal and otherworldly.
Xu Rushi felt incredibly envious. President Peng was being far too generous. This was the latest design by the famous designer YX, of which there were only three in the world, and it was priceless.
Why should Lu Qianqian get one like this?
