Chapter 9: Dinner at the Si Family

Lu Corporation.

After a while, Secretary Lin greeted the companies that began to clean up the related news in a panic.

After all, two years ago, a company had closed down to defame Lu Qingqiao. They didn’t dare to provoke CEO Lu too much.

Once the companies were finally done with their business, Secretary Lin turned to Lu Qingqiao and asked, “CEO Lu, should we investigate who’s behind all this?”

Usually, Lu Qingqiao wouldn’t pay much attention to some harmless reports. However, today’s sudden malicious report showed that someone was deliberately targeting her.

Lu Qingqiao, who knew who was behind this, waved her hand and said, “No need.”

She wouldn’t find anything.

She had fallen into a trap in her previous life, and the spread of this news undoubtedly added fuel to her fire. But now, it was just a groundless rumor. She had warned them that if they didn’t know what was good for them, she wouldn’t be polite.

Lu Qingqiao looked up at Secretary Lin, who was in a formal suit with black-rimmed glasses. Secretary Lin reported to her with a serious face.

This secretary who had followed her for many years did not have a good ending in her previous life.

She had insisted on accompanying her and the Lu Corporation until the Lu Corporation ceased to exist. Later, she was also banned by the industry and was forced to leave the capital.

“CEO Lu, is there anything wrong with my report?” Secretary Lin was a little confused.

She has been by her side since CEO Lu took over the company. She had been through all sorts of things and could understand what CEO Lu meant with just one look.

But now, CEO LU was looking at her with an incomprehensible look. She couldn’t figure it out. She felt CEO Lu was different today but couldn’t tell what was different.

“No,” Lu Qingqiao replied. “Let’s continue.”

After hearing Secretary Lin’s report, Lu Qingqiao got busy with work.

A week later.

It was six in the evening.

Secretary Lin came over to remind her. “CEO Lu, there’s dinner with the Si family tonight. You should be off work by now.”

“Yes, you too. Go home early. Have a good weekend.” Lu Qingqiao put down her work and went downstairs.

After her rebirth, Lu Qingqiao reorganized all the related projects and data of the Lu Corporation. She had been busy eating and living in the company for an entire week.

Slightly tired, she closed her eyes and fell into a light sleep as soon as she got into the car. The driver, Old Li, drove quietly.

The Capital Restaurant was a time-honored brand in the capital with a hundred years of history. Many big shots used it as a dining place to receive important guests.

When Lu Qingqiao arrived, Si Jingsen was sitting in the private room. His suit was hanging on the hanger at the door, and he looked gentle and handsome in his white shirt.

He explained to Lu Qingqiao. “An acquaintance is getting engaged upstairs. The elders have all gone up to greet her. Xueru hasn’t arrived yet. She should be here soon.”

He had always been considerate and spoke in a gentle and refined manner.

“We were supposed to have a meal together the next day after I returned, but there were too many things to do. We didn’t have time until today. I heard from Xueru that you have been very busy recently.”

“Yes.” Lu Qingqiao nodded and sent a message to Qin Xun.

She had been busy for a week and hadn’t contacted Qin Xun at all. Now that the weekend has come, she will take him to a holiday villa in the suburbs of Beijing.

Lu Xueru had even sent her a message this morning to remind her not to forget about the hot spring they had agreed to go to half a month ago.

She had never been able to go in her previous life, but she could go this time.

“I’ve been abroad for a few months and missed the roast duck here the most. I ordered your favorite dishes. Do you want anything else?” Si Jingsen came over with the menu and was about to sit next to Lu Qingqiao.
