On the way home, Lou Xiao'e couldn't help but complain to Yang Ming: "This Xu Damao is so shameless. He did that before, and now he pretends to be calm and courteous. I really don't know what his intentions are."

Yang Ming couldn't help laughing when he heard this. He knew that Lou Xiao'e was too innocent and knew little about the complexity of human nature.

No wonder she was played around by Xu Damao in the plot.

However, he also understood that Lou Xiao'e was a kind-hearted person who treated others sincerely, and her care and concern for the deaf old lady was seen by everyone in the courtyard.

In this way, the two of them walked and talked, and a faint warmth and tranquility filled the night.

However, is it true that the deaf old lady is completely unaware of the dispute between Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu?

In that social context, for the sake of her grandson's bloodline inheritance, she even sacrificed Lou Xiao'e's innocence and forced her to pair up with Sha Zhu.

When Lou Xiao'e returned from distant Hong Kong, her feelings for Sha Zhu remained.

However, Qin Huairu teamed up with everyone in the courtyard and used various emotional tactics on Sha Zhu to try to shake his mind.

In the end, Lou Xiao'e seemed to have become a chess piece in the courtyard.

Not only did she invest all her savings into the construction of the nursing home, but as the largest investor, she did not receive the respect and returns she deserved.

Instead, all the praise and honor were focused on Qin Huairu and the three uncles.

All of this reflects Lou Xiao'e's innocent character, which makes her easy to be exploited by others.

There was a hint of deep thought in Yang Ming's eyes, which made Lou Xiao'e feel a little uncomfortable, and she lowered her head slightly.

"Brother Yang, why are you looking at me like that?" Lou Xiao'e asked softly.

·…………

“Just some emotion.” Yang Ming shook his head slightly. He certainly wouldn’t say directly that he was thinking about why Lou Xiaoe was so easily influenced by others.

"However, speaking of blind dates, how did you and Xu Damao get together?" Yang Ming changed the subject and asked about another topic.

"This was mainly my parents' wish." Lou Xiao'e sighed, "They thought it would be safer for me to marry into a working-class family. Someone from Xu Damao's family happened to propose marriage, and my parents thought his conditions were acceptable, so they arranged a meeting."

"Who would have thought...such an accident would happen on our first meeting." Lou Xiao'e said helplessly.

What Lou Xiao'e did not mention was that she actually had a glimmer of hope when she returned this time, and wanted to meet Yang Ming and his wife.

But after this meeting, she deeply felt the gap between herself and Xu Huizhen. The other party's elegant temperament made her feel inferior.

After listening to this, Yang Ming nodded to show his understanding: "Your parents' considerations are also human nature. Your Lou family is rich and powerful, so it is easy for others to covet it. If it were me, I would probably find it difficult to remain calm in the face of such temptation."

These words made Lou Xiao'e's face darken, and she seemed to begin to realize some deeper problems. Of course, Yang Ming's conversation with Lou Xiao'e was not intended to directly discuss the Lou family's response strategy.

In fact, for a young woman like Lou Xiao'e, the complicated affairs within the family may be too heavy for her to provide substantial help.

He wanted to take this opportunity to send a warning to Lou Xiao'e, hoping that she could convey it to the Lou family indirectly.

When Lou Xiao'e returned to the Lou family, what she was thinking about was not the details of today's blind date, but the words that Yang Ming left when they parted.

"Xiao'e, was there any progress in your meeting with Mr. Xu today?" When Mr. and Mrs. Lou saw her come in, they eagerly asked about the progress of the blind date.

However, Lou Xiao'e seemed to be worried.

"Mother, don't mention Mr. Xu."

"You don't know, today when I arrived at that house, Master Xu..."

Lou Xiao'e narrated her experiences in the mansion, which made Lou's father and mother look worried.

Although they hope their daughter can find a good match as soon as possible, they also don't want to see her fall into misfortune.

"It seems that this Mr. Xu is not a good choice."

"Xiao'e, don't worry. Your mother will look for a suitable candidate for you again. This time we will be more cautious and will never let what happened today happen again." Lou's mother said firmly.

But Lou Xiao'e did not respond, she turned to look at her father.

"Father, is there something undercurrent in our family? Is it not as stable as the outside world sees?"

"When Brother Yang sent me back today, there was something hidden in his words, as if he was reminding me." Then, Lou Xiao'e stated Yang Ming's warning.

"Yang Ming... he actually has such an insight?" After hearing this, Lou Bancheng's face became serious and his brows furrowed. As a veteran in the business world, he had already noticed some anomalies within the family, but he had never investigated further.

Now, after hearing what Lou Xiao'e mentioned, Lou Bancheng suddenly felt that the family was surrounded by dangers and realized that the situation might be much more serious than he had imagined.

At this time, Lou Bancheng naturally had no intention of discussing his daughter's marriage. After thinking for a moment, he said to Lou Xiao'e:

"Xiao'e, please invite Yang Ming to my house for a chat in some time. I want to discuss something with him." These words are enough to show Lou Bancheng's respect and trust for Yang Ming.

He even used the word "deep talk", which was enough to show how much he valued Yang Ming.

Yang Ming's whisper in Lou Bancheng's ear made him realize the dire situation the family was currently facing. Lou Xiaoe, with her expectations for her parents in her heart, naturally hoped that they would change their views on Yang Ming.

So she expressed her support without hesitation.

However, seeing her daughter so determined, Lou's mother could only sigh helplessly.

She originally hoped that her daughter could stay away from the troubles related to Yang Ming, but now it seems that her daughter's heart seems to be more firmly towards him.

However, in the face of the overall safety of the family, the daughter's happiness seems to become slightly secondary.

In the corridor of the steel rolling mill, Yang Ming, holding a heavy stack of design drawings, knocked on the door of Director Yang's office.

"Director, what I brought this time is a major project." Director Yang felt the weight of these drawings and knew that this was no ordinary design.

"I heard that you are about to be transferred. As your colleague and the person who introduced me to the steel rolling mill, this design drawing is a promotion gift I prepared in advance for you." Yang Ming said with a smile.

Director Yang's impending departure had indeed disrupted his plans. If he had produced these drawings after Director Yang left, wouldn't that have been a bargain for Deputy Director Li?

"Yang Ming, you have been keeping it a secret. Now can you reveal the details of these drawings?" Director Yang could not suppress his curiosity.

"It's about cars, and not just any cars. To be more precise, it belongs to a unique branch of cars - sports cars, or more precisely, supercars." Yang Ming explained in detail.
