After being abandoned by my parents, I became a top boss

Seeing the coldness in her eyes, Mr. Li closed his eyes slightly and sighed, "How could I not know the truth behind this? But isn't that the way people are? If you don't cherish things when you have them, you will regret them when they are gone. I also know that no matter what we do now, it will be useless."

He opened his eyes, and the vicissitudes in his eyes made him look a dozen years older in an instant. "But even if we know this, we can't just do nothing. Just think of us as having to do this for psychological comfort. As for why I chose you..."

He looked at Lu Nanfeng and explained, "Xiaofeng, you were saved by him, and you are the person he is most worried about in this world. Now that he is gone, we have the responsibility and obligation to take good care of you on his behalf."

Lu Nanfeng lowered his eyes slightly and said calmly: "I am doing well and don't need your care."

Old Master Li opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but she spoke first: "I really don't understand why you are always like this. When Li Chen was here, he wanted your love and care, but you were so stingy, humiliating him and hurting him."

"What about now? I don't want your care, but you ignore my wishes and rush to send me? You Li family members really do things as you please!"

She squeezed the last sentence out from between her teeth.

The intimidating and cold aura she exuded made Old Master Li, a man half buried in the earth, speechless. He didn't know what to say in rebuttal.

After a long silence, he sighed and finally spoke, "Maybe I shouldn't have come here today. Or maybe we were wrong from the beginning to the end. We were wrong before and we are wrong now... It's really funny when you think about it."

He sighed again and waved his hand, "Well, I am being abrupt today. You should finish your work and go back soon, and I won't bother you anymore."

After he finished speaking, he steered the wheelchair towards the door.

Lu Nanfeng remained sitting in his office chair without moving.

She dislikes the Li family, just as she dislikes the Jiang family.

Although the Li family is much more humane than the Jiang family, it is not much better. When Li Chen was around, they humiliated and beat people. Now that he is gone, they seem to have suddenly come to their senses and are trying their best to make amends. They are pretending to be so regretful, but who are they acting for?

Why did you go early?

Why do we always like to do the wrong thing at the wrong time?

At nine o'clock in the evening, when Lu Nanfeng drove back to the castle, Mr. Lu was sitting on the sofa in the living room reading a newspaper.

"You're back?" Mr. Lu raised his eyes and glanced at her. "Why are you so late?"

"I haven't been in the company for a while. There are a lot of documents that need to be processed. I've been busy until now." Lu Nanfeng said, sitting down on the sofa. She looked around and didn't see Kang Ruiqiao, so she asked, "Where's grandma?"

"She was taken to the Wan family by Old Lady Wan. She said that the old sisters haven't gathered for a long time. She will stay at the Wan family tonight and won't be coming back."

Lu Nanfeng nodded. Although the Wan family’s strength in the capital was not as strong as the Lu family, it was still a well-known family in the capital.

Moreover, before Mrs. Wan got married, she and Kang Ruiqiao were close friends. Over the years, the two have always had a good relationship, and it is not uncommon for them to often live in each other's homes. After all, it has happened from time to time in the past, so Lu Nanfeng was not too surprised by this.

She sat on the sofa for a while, and suddenly thought of the business she had agreed with Zhu Lai this afternoon, and then she spoke again: "Grandpa, I may have to go to Lucheng on a business trip in two days."

Hearing the word "Lucheng", Mr. Lu paused while flipping through the newspaper, "Lucheng?"

"Yes, Langyue Group wants to cooperate with Lucheng Jiang's Enterprise and invite our Lu Group to be a third-party company to conduct quality control of Jiang's clothing. The remuneration is quite considerable. I agreed. After the contract is signed, I may have to stay in Lucheng permanently."

Mr. Lu's eyes deepened a little, and he murmured, "Lucheng, Jiang's Enterprise..."

He was in a state of disquiet. Jiang family, Xiaofeng wanted to get in touch with Jiang family...but apart from that Jiang family, which other Jiang family was there in Lucheng?

When Lu Nanfeng first entered the Lu family, he sent people to investigate her identity. Naturally, he knew about her relationship with the Jiang family, and he also knew the fact that the Jiang family had abandoned her.

But now that she has to contact Jiang's enterprise, it means she has to meet the Jiang family. Could it be that... after the Jiang family bullied her so much back then, she still can't let go of the Jiang family and wants to recognize them again?

He didn't mind, but he felt sorry for Lu Nanfeng. Why would she need to recognize a family that didn't care about her life or death? Could a group of family members who didn't care about her be called family?

Or is it that... the Lu family wasn't good enough to her, so she kept thinking about that family and couldn't forget them?

But on second thought, he was worried that he was overthinking. What if Xiaofeng really just went there to discuss business?

Lu Nanfeng didn't know what Mr. Lu was thinking, nor did she know that her life experience, which she thought she had hidden very well, had been made clear the moment she stepped into the Lu family.

Her eyes fell on Mr. Lu, and she asked, "Grandpa, is there anything wrong?"

Mr. Lu did not answer immediately, but was silent for a while before he said with a heavy voice: "Xiaofeng, do we have to go to Lucheng Jiang's? Do we have to discuss this business?"

To be honest, he didn't want Lu Nanfeng to go to Lucheng, and he didn't want the Jiang family to know about her existence. The Jiang family had treated her so badly in the past, and he was worried that she would be bullied again. He was even more worried that she would be soft-hearted and forgive that family.

Even if the possibility was only one in ten million, he didn't dare to gamble.

The person Lu Shizhan is most proud of in his life, besides Kang Ruiqiao, is his granddaughter. He cannot bear to see her jump into the fire pit, let alone be bullied. The only way he can protect her under his wings and make sure that family never knows of her existence is to feel truly at ease.

Seeing that Mr. Lu was uneasy when he mentioned the Jiang family, Lu Nanfeng vaguely guessed something, but he was not sure.

She looked at Mr. Lu and continued, "Grandpa, Lang Yue's reward is very generous. We can only make money on this business."

"Lu's company is not short of money, so we don't need to discuss this business."

Seeing Mr. Lu's intense reaction, Lu Nanfeng became more certain of her thoughts. She moved closer to Mr. Lu, held his hand, and said soothingly, "Grandpa, I know what you're thinking. Don't worry, I'm just going to discuss business, that's all."

"Besides, don't you understand my personality? When did I, Lu Nanfeng, become such a confused person? I know who is good to me and who is not. I know it like a mirror in my heart."
