Chapter 20

Xu Xuejiao didn't know why she was so angry.

She was just angry.

This person... has no logic at all!

Who would give away over a hundred billion like that?

Lu Chengwen was also confused.

[Are you sick? Didn't you ask me for shares?]

[It's fine if you take the shares. Losing money to avoid disaster, staying away from you will help me live a few more years.]

[You just follow the normal plot and be someone's concubine. I'll quietly be a rich man in the North, and we won't bother each other.]

[Perfect.]

Xu Xuejiao became even angrier.

Over 17 billion yuan, 51% of the shares of the Ninth Pharmaceutical Factory, just to... get rid of me?

Is it because you hate me and want me to disappear from your life?

Do I deserve to be hated to this extent?

Xu Xuejiao felt she had never been so insulted in her life.

A man would rather give up nearly 20 billion in assets to cut ties with you. What does that mean?

It means, in his heart, you are nothing but a ghost!

This is the ultimate level of contempt!

Tears welled up in Xu Xuejiao's eyes.

When Xu Xuejiao got angry, a few people nearby came over.

Xu Xuejiao's team asked anxiously, "President Xu, what's wrong? Why... why are you crying?"

Lu Chengwen said, "I earned over a hundred billion, I'm just excited."

Xu Xuejiao said, "Leave me alone."

"Oh... yes, we'll be over there, call me if you need anything..."

"Leave!" Xu Xuejiao shouted.

The secretary quickly left.

Xu Xuejiao looked at Lu Chengwen, "Do I bother you that much?"

"Huh?" Lu Chengwen was completely confused.

[Are you sick?! Are you sick?!]

[You earned over a hundred billion, Miss! Go celebrate!]

[You can even bow to me for the shares! I've already transferred them to you, so... why are you still angry?]

[Don't you think your little tantrum is so absurd?]

"I... I'm a bit confused," Lu Chengwen said, "Isn't this what you wanted?"

Xu Xuejiao tore up the contract into pieces.

Now it was Lu Chengwen's turn to be surprised.

"Xuejiao, little sister..."

"Lu Chengwen, I'm not like you. Every penny I earn is morally and legally sound. I never use patients' lives to threaten others in business. Keep these shares yourself."

"Oh." Lu Chengwen still didn't understand, "Are you... okay?"

"Do I disgust you that much?"

"Not at all." Lu Chengwen scratched his cheek, "You're actually quite cute."

"Then why do you always want me to disappear?"

[Is it that obvious?]

Lu Chengwen felt guilty.

"No, it's just... well, from childhood, you've always found me annoying, haven't you? Wouldn't you be happy if I disappeared?"

Xu Xuejiao took a deep breath, "I've changed my mind. I want to get to know you better."

Xu Xuejiao, like a master of changing expressions, wiped away her tears and instantly showed a radiant smile.

"Starting today, I'll be with you every day. The more you bother me, the more I'll be in your face. I'll drive you crazy!"

Lu Chengwen was fine with everything else, but he was afraid of this.

He looked at this powerful woman in horror.

"Why!?"

Lu Chengwen said, "No logic! What's wrong with you all!? Leng Qingqiu was like this, and now you are too. What are you all doing? She looks down on me, thinks I'm a useless lickspittle. You've always thought I'm devious, and you've barely even greeted me these past years. What's going on with you two? Are you trying to drive me crazy?"

"Will you get engaged to Leng Qingqiu?"

"I'll get engaged to her in six!" Lu Chengwen was agitated, "I want to live a few more years!"

Xu Xuejiao looked at Lu Chengwen, "Then get engaged to me."

Lu Chengwen was just about to take a sip of coffee when he heard this and spat it out.

He choked and couldn't speak for a while.

Xu Xuejiao frowned and looked at him.

Lu Chengwen patted his chest and wiped his clothes, busy for a while, "Miss, don't scare me. I don't have that kind of luck, this joke is too much."

Xu Xuejiao put her arm on the table, propped her chin with one hand, and smiled at Lu Chengwen.

"Chengwen, I think you've changed a lot over the years."

"Huh? A lot?"

"Even though I don't know what you've been up to lately, I think you're a good person."

Lu Chengwen sighed, "I have things to do, I'll leave first."

...

Sitting in the back of the car, Lu Chengwen silently looked out the window.

The direction things were heading was getting a bit strange!

He couldn't keep sealing Long Aotian anymore. Either seal him for life, or let him out. This day-to-day sealing was driving him crazy.

He had to let him out soon and let him deal with those female harem members.

Otherwise, what's with all these girls always circling around him?

First, Leng Qingqiu changed her usual behavior, agreeing to get engaged yesterday and trying to kiss him today.

Now Xu Xuejiao was looking at him strangely, even saying she wanted to get engaged to him.

Even if it was a joke, he couldn't afford to joke around like this.

If this kept up, he'd eventually make a mistake.

No, I have to... make them hate me, find me disgusting, and want to stay far away from me.

Too many heroines today, I need to take a break.

Chen Moxun called, saying his grandfather wanted to see Lu Chengwen.

Lu Chengwen didn't want to go, but then he thought, there was still a long time until noon tomorrow. Wandering around outside, he might run into another heroine.

Fine! I'll go to the Chen family, drink with Chen Moxun until dawn, and then sleep until after noon. That should work, right?

Brother Aotian, you really need to speed up and deal with these female spirits. I'm living like a thief right now.

At the Chen family, he chatted with Chen Qiushou for a bit, then pulled Chen Moxun to his floor.

The two of them sat on the balcony chairs, watching the sunset, drinking red wine, and smoking cigars.

Chen Moxun said, "How's Leng Qingqiu? Did you get her?"

Lu Chengwen laughed, "Get what? I let her sleep and then sent her away when she woke up."

Chen Moxun was very surprised and gave him a thumbs up, "Good! You have self-control! I, Chen Moxun, don't admire anyone, but I admire you."

"You're not getting any younger, find something to do. Loafing around all day, what's that about?"

"I heard you saw my sister?"

"Yeah, I did."

At that moment, Chen Mengyun walked into the hall.

She was there to argue about one of Chen Moxun's expenses, but when she walked in, she saw a familiar figure sitting on the balcony, smoking a cigar, besides her brother.

Chen Moxun said, "I suggest you break it off with Leng Qingqiu and come after my sister. After you broke up, she hasn't dated anyone. If you didn't get her first time, it's still there."

"So sure? I think her butt is pretty full, maybe it's not original?"

Chen Mengyun was furious.

These two were like a pair of wolves, working together to do evil.

Whenever they got together, they never did anything good!

Talking about her like this behind her back, one her first love, the other her younger brother, the people who should be closest to her, but they talked about her with no respect, just... that kind of tone.

Chen Moxun said, "My sister is 100% original! After breaking up with you, she went straight to work in the group, working over ten hours a day, like a madwoman."

"Six months later, she took over the management of a branch, and no one could get close to her. She only cared about work, nothing else."

Lu Chengwen said, "I know, is she still that driven?"

"Not anymore, it's not necessary." Chen Moxun said, "Now she understands the entire group, and her abilities have been honed. This is the perfect time! If you show even half the enthusiasm you showed for Leng Qingqiu, I guarantee, my sister will be your little white horse, ready for you to ride as you please."

Chen Mengyun was almost driven mad.

Is there a brother who talks about his sister like this? It's disgusting!

Lu Chengwen suddenly said something serious:

"Hey, please don't talk about your sister like that. She's your sister, show some respect."

"I'm not talking to outsiders, you're one of us! I'm telling you, while my grandfather is still alive, if you want to get my sister, no one in the family will oppose it, especially me!"

Lu Chengwen looked at the setting sun and shook his head with a bitter smile, "No, it's impossible between us now."

"Why? It's just about that thing back then. Is that even a big deal? Which rich second generation hasn't been reckless? As long as you treat my sister well in the future, our family will absolutely support you."

Lu Chengwen thought, you don't know the full story. This isn't just about us two, there's a big male lead in between.

I'm not a vegetarian, but there's some meat I can't even look at, let alone touch!

Lu Chengwen laughed, "You should worry about yourself. Maybe you should settle down, it might help you mature. Having a family and responsibilities can make a person grow up."

Chen Moxun sighed, "It doesn't seem very practical."

"So what?"

Lu Chengwen turned to Chen Moxun, "Let me tell you, life is about family, a loving wife, and children. Imagine having someone who truly loves you, seeing her warms your heart, and she smiles and squints when she sees you. How great is that?"

"For love, two people take care of each other during the day, and at night, they share a bed without any shame. That's true happiness."

"When you have a child, watching a little life come into the world, and the two of you work hard to raise him, and he calls you 'Dad.' That feeling is a million times better than hanging out with a bunch of spirits in a pleasure den every day!"

Chen Mengyun was stunned.

This guy, a pearl from a dog's mouth?

Chen Mengyun couldn't help but smile with relief.

Chen Moxun looked at Lu Chengwen like he was a completely different person.

"Damn! What's with you... suddenly so profound? You're a black-hearted businessman, how are you talking like a wise man?"

Lu Chengwen sighed, "The righteous path is rugged. The world is full of distractions. A man should be able to stay true to himself, no matter how bizarre and chaotic the world gets, not be superficial, not fall into depravity, not follow the crowd, not indulge in self, and hold onto what truly matters in life. That's what a man is."

Not just Chen Moxun, even Chen Mengyun behind him laughed.

This deadbeat, he actually understands these things?

These two troublemakers, their brains are actually better than anyone's, they just don't use them for good.

Even in school, they competed to be the worst.

Chen Moxun looked at Lu Chengwen and shook his head, "Did something happen to you recently? Are you okay? From what you're saying, are you going to be a vegetarian now?"

Lu Chengwen laughed, "Hell no, I'm not a vegetarian. Men, no meat, no fun."

Chen Moxun realized, "Oh, you have a new target? How does she compare to my sister?"

"My sister... " Lu Chengwen deliberately paused, "Her figure is amazing. By the way, have her breasts grown again? They look like they're about to burst out of her clothes at any moment."

Chen Mengyun was immediately furious.

These two deadbeats, they were just being serious, and now they're back to their nonsense!

"Ha ha ha!" Chen Moxun laughed, "Tell me the truth, did you get my sister back then? Swear!"

"No!"

"I don't believe you!"

Lu Chengwen grinned, "I'll tell you, that day everything was set. My sister was already cleaned up and lying there, ready for me to do whatever I wanted."

"Damn, you're finally telling the truth!"

"But do you know what happened next?"

"You... didn't... just end it there, did you?"

"No!" Lu Chengwen bit his teeth and pinched Chen Moxun's cheek, "But then you got into a fight and called me. I had to put on my pants and rush out!"

"Was it... the time with Old Six?"

"That's it!"

"Ha ha ha ha..."

The two troublemakers laughed together.

Despite the absurdity, after many years, bringing up their youthful antics made them feel both nostalgic and happy.

Chen Mengyun walked up with a stern face, "Want more wine?"

"Sure, open another bottle."

Chen Moxun said naturally.

Lu Chengwen leaned closer to Chen Moxun with a mischievous smile, "You, you don't know what good things you ruined! That day, your sister was so red in the face, lying there, already undressed, biting the corner of the blanket, not resisting at all, and I was just about to..."

Chen Moxun was stunned, "Go on! Go on, go on!"

Lu Chengwen slowly turned his head and saw Chen Mengyun, who was looking at him coldly.

[I'm dead.]
