Chapter 3: Master Lu dies
"Ruxi is my fiancée, she can be magnanimous and swallow her anger, but I can't."
This kind of word to describe the Virgin Mary doesn't match me at all, and I won't believe it if I use it to deceive ghosts, right?!
Seeing that a man could evaluate himself like this without blushing and heartbeating, Sheng Ruxi couldn't help but complain in her heart, and the director gritted his teeth and finally squeezed out a few words:
"I understand Mr. Lu, Ruxi is the best host, such a person has been wronged, I, as a boss and an elder, must protect her."
Anyway, Chen Kai is just a nephew and not a son, besides, this guy is incapable and arrogant, and staying in the station any longer will only make all the staff dissatisfied!
"Of course I'm very satisfied with Director Chen's work, but there is no need to trouble you about this little thing, someone from the Lu Group will come over to deal with it later, Director Chen, you just need to be on the side."
Let the Lu Group take action in person, there is really no way back now, not only may you never find a job again, but even the future will be very sad!
Chen Kai realized how much death he had done, and immediately burst into tears, and got up in despair and bowed to Sheng Ruxi again and again:
"Teacher Ruxi, Miss Sheng, Mrs. Lu, the previous thing was not good for me, please give me a chance to change!"
"Even a child can't make mistakes in connivance all the time, let alone an adult?"
Sheng Ruxi glanced at him coldly, and her tone was calm:
"Everyone should bear the consequences of what they do, right?"
Lu Xingchen had to admit that Sheng Ruxi's appearance at this time fell into his eyes, with a kind of demagogic charm.
He reached out to hold Sheng Ruxi's hand and was about to leave with her, when Zhao Shanshan's desperate and crazy voice sounded behind him:
"Mr. Lu, Sheng Ruxi, a slut, shows up every day, do you want her to resign and go home to teach her husband and children, a married woman should return to the family, isn't it embarrassing for you to always be outside, besides, she is so coquettish, if she is ...... Yes! ”
Sheng Ruxi slapped Zhao Shanshan sharply, and Zhao Shanshan screamed, she was almost angry at this woman's brain circuit:
"Do you have a bad brain, or have you just been unearthed, do you need to be introduced to a doctor for treatment?"
The little woman's poisonous tongue made Lu Xingchen a little unbearable, and his expression was the best answer to Zhao Shanshan's unreasonable trouble.
The two walked out of the TV station building under the watchful eye of everyone, and it was already the first day of the new year.
Sheng Ruxi's parents live abroad for a long time, and every New Year she used to spend with her colleagues for dinner after the host, but this year, it is very different.
"What are you thinking?"
Under the starlight, Sheng Ruxi's delicate and elegant face on TV seemed to have a touch of fireworks.
Lu Xingchen was a little fascinated for a while, Sheng Ruxi turned his head to look at him and smiled faintly:
"I was thinking, Chen Kai called me Mrs. Lu just now, and our director only agreed to my request after you appeared, so ah......"
Her crisp and melodious voice was dyed with an unmistakable firmness:
"I will try to be better and stronger, Lu Xingchen, although we are only in a contract marriage, I am not willing to live in peace under your care, I want to be as strong as you and fight side by side with you."
"Sheng Ruxi, you are really ......"
Lu Xingchen was a little speechless, and looked at Sheng Ruxi with deep eyes, and his heart was full of turmoil.
In the past, he thought that this woman was an excellent vase and the most suitable person to be Mrs. Lu, but now he suddenly realized that Sheng Ruxi was simply like a star.
She doesn't need anyone, she can sparkle on her own.
An inexplicable emotion was involved somewhere in his heart, Lu Xingchen took a deep breath, and suddenly had the urge to kiss her, and he couldn't help but slowly approach Sheng Ruxi.
Just a little bit, a little closer......
"Sir, come back quickly, old sir, he doesn't seem to be able to do it!"
The piercing ringtone of the mobile phone broke the ambiguous atmosphere, and as soon as Lu Xingchen picked up the phone, he heard the anxious voice of the housekeeper, and his heart couldn't help but sink.
Old Man Lu's health seems to be better these days, but the top doctors have told him privately that his condition is not as good as it seems.
Could it be that he really won't survive tonight?
"Let's go, how are you now, do you need me to drive?"
Sheng Ruxi had already heard the voice on the other end of the phone and asked quickly.
She saw that Lu Xingchen didn't seem to have any expression on his face, she just thought that he was so sad that he was in a trance, so she snatched the car key from the man and opened the passenger door for him:
"Get in the car!"
She's ...... Worried about yourself?
Lu Xingchen smiled a little, took the car keys again, and fastened the seat belt for Sheng Ruxi very gentlemanly:
"I'm fine, but you should have a hard night tonight, so let's rest on the road for a while."
Lying on the hospital bed, his grandfather was terminally ill, wasn't he worried at all?!
Sheng Ruxi was full of questions, but out of respect for Lu Xingchen, she didn't ask a word more, but the other party saw her thoughts, and her tone was indifferent:
"What, do you think I'm too ruthless and inhumane?"
No.
Sheng Ruxi quietly shook her head in her heart and fell into a memory.
The first time she met Lu Xingchen, it was because the station did a charity program to help the lonely elderly and out-of-school children.
After that, the Lu Group donated all the money in a low-key manner, and Lu Xingchen himself even came over in his busy schedule and participated in all the work himself.
How can such a person be a bad person?
"What kind of person you are, no matter who you are, is not qualified to judge."
Sheng Ruxi turned her head sideways, her eyes were very serious:
"Besides, I'm sure you're not like that."
I believe you, that's a beautiful one.
Lu Xingchen's heart warmed slightly, and he glanced at Sheng Ruxi deeply, but he still didn't speak.
The two of them drove back to the Lu family's old house in silence all the way, and the housekeeper was already waiting at the door uneasy, and when he saw Lu Xingchen coming back, he hurriedly greeted him:
"The old gentleman suddenly ran out of breath half an hour ago, and the doctor said that it was useless to put on a ventilator, and he kept reading your name, and ......"
He hesitated, then said cautiously:
"Mr. Duan is also accompanying him inside."
Mr. Duan, is it Duan Chengde?
Regarding the affairs of the Lu family, what Sheng Ruxi knows is actually similar to that of ordinary people.
I heard that this Duan Chengde was the child adopted by Mr. Lu when he was young, and there was no difference between him and Lu Xingchen's father.
When Lu Xingchen was still young, Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu at that time didn't know why, and moved out of the Lu family with him.
When Lu Xingchen was a teenager, Old Man Lu took him back to the Lu family again, but at that time, his parents had already died.
Perhaps because his own son has been absent for a long time, Old Man Lu is very close to Duan Chengde, his adopted son.
But looking at the expressions of Lu Xingchen and the housekeeper, he has a bad relationship with his so-called "uncle".
Sheng Ruxi hastily straightened out her thoughts in her heart, followed Lu Xingchen upstairs without touching her feet, and walked into Old Man Lu's room.
As soon as she opened the door, the strong smell of medicine came to her nose, Sheng Ruxi took a few deep breaths, and was about to follow Lu Xingchen in, but a girl about her age suddenly ran out of it and threw herself into Lu Xingchen's arms:
"Brother Chen, grandpa, he can't do it, I'm so scared, really scared!"
