Strictly speaking, this sentence was not an abrupt question, and Jin Zezhi was already used to answering this question when he met Lu Shichuan.

In fact, if the funeral of Lu Lirong's death was not counted two years ago, the chances for the two of them to meet in the five years were limited to a few occasional video calls, and the time was not enough.

Almost every time it starts with such a topic.It will actually end on a similar topic.

Jin Zezhi looked down at the wine glass in his hand.He understood from the very beginning that Lu Shichuan didn't have that deep affection for him, and he wasn't like Lu Yulin, who was born to be Lu Shichuan's constant parting relative whose blood was thicker than water.

In the past five years, he had ordered himself to face reality countless times, but it was ineffective; he had ordered himself to concentrate on his studies countless times, but it was also ineffective.

Today, after landing on a [-]-hour plane, he returned to Lu's residence by car for another hour, and then waited in the front hall for a full four hours, but the fatigue from his whole body was washed away the moment he saw Lu Shichuan.

"As usual, sir," Jin Zezhi replied as usual, before speaking, "but this time when I return to China, I want to stay in China."

He was one year older than Lu Yulin, and he was much calmer. Lu Shichuan was always at ease with him, and he only asked, "Have you thought about it yet?"

"Yes." Jin Zezhi looked at Lu Shichuan, "Please agree to let me stay in the company to help you."

Lu Shichuan seldom interfered with his decision, "I will arrange it, but you need to start from the basics."

Jin Zezhi pursed his lips, "Which department do you want me to work in first?"

"I don't mean such a basic level." Lu Shichuan knew his ability, so he didn't want to waste time on these trivial matters, "I will let you be my assistant first."

Jin Zezhi's expression remained unchanged. He twirled his fingers to make sure he didn't misunderstand Lu Shichuan's meaning, "You mean, by your side?"

Lu Shichuan's Adam's apple rolled and swallowed the wine in his mouth. He put one hand on the armrest of the sofa, and the other hand held the bottomed crystal cup, and suddenly closed his eyes for a moment.

He looked at Jin Zezhi again after a second, as if nothing happened just now, "Yes, I want you to follow me, prepare meeting materials for me, learn to screen the documents that need to be processed by me, and accompany me to participate in several meetings." A must-go party."

Jin Zezhi tightened his five fingers, and his eyes moved slightly, "I will fulfill your request to me as soon as possible."

Lu Shichuan said: "After Yulin's coming-of-age ceremony, he will go to the company for an internship with you. I know that he will consult your opinion on many things. This is very good, keep it up."

"Does Yulin also need to start as your assistant?"

Lu Shichuan's expectations for Lu Yulin stopped at the year when Lu Lirong died. Of course, he would not put a person without business acumen in front of him, so he said lightly, "No, he will be the general manager of the Lu Corporation." After that, he simply typed, "Don't feel unfair because of this, he is the heir of the Lu family, and you are destined to work for him in the future."

Jin Zezhi let go quietly, but he emphasized, "I will do things for you first."

Lu Shichuan suddenly raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, and gently swung his right hand on the armrest of the sofa back and forth, "Go, go and see how Yulin's dishes are doing."

Jin Zezhi immediately remembered the doctor who had left not long ago. He leaned forward and took a step forward in a sitting position, "Are you okay?"

Lu Shichuan's tone was normal, but his patience was more limited than usual, "I usually don't like to repeat my words a second time, Ze Zhi, remember this."

Jin Zezhi's outstretched hand froze, he got up and stood up straight, "I'm sorry." After speaking, he put down the wine glass he had been holding in his palm before turning around and walking out.

Lu Shichuan spread his five fingers to support his forehead, and sat alone on the sofa for a long time.

It wasn't until the sound of footsteps disappeared and returned that he stood up while leaning on the armrest, and happened to meet Jin Zezhi's eyes.

"Is Yulin's dinner ready?"

Jin Zezhi glanced at the desktop that hadn't been touched since he left, and replied, "Yes, he prepared some home-cooked dishes."

Lu Shichuan stepped forward, "Then let's go."

Jin Zezhi was half a step behind him.

When the two came to the restaurant, Lu Yulin was just putting down the last plate. He casually took off his apron and threw it aside, "Uncle, Zezhi, come and taste my cooking!"

Lu Shichuan looked at the dishes, and when he sat down, he said, "If you are willing to put one-tenth of your talent in cooking on your studies, your report card should not be so bad."

Lu Yulin coughed dryly: "I take this as a compliment."

Jin Zezhi didn't comment on these dishes. Lu Shichuan looked at Lu Yulin who had already put disappointment on his face without realizing it, put a dish on the plate, and asked inadvertently, "Zezhi, what do you think of Yulin's dish?" Can I have a few dishes?"

Lu Yulin's eyes lit up.

"Me?" Jin Zezhi said, "I think it tastes good."

It was just a polite remark, but Lu Yulin smiled, "Thank you."

Lu Shichuan had never seen the scene of these two getting along with his own eyes before today, and now he knows that the facts have completely violated his original intention of sending them abroad five years ago.

It seems that Jin Zezhi's indifference to feelings is still difficult to change even though he was cultivated from an early age.

Such an unequal relationship is not a good thing for Lu Yulin.

Lu Shichuan announced the news that would have been announced at the banquet tomorrow at the dinner table in advance, "Yulin, you and Zezhi will go to the company to report together the day after tomorrow."

Lu Yulin was taken aback, "What?"

"I promised you to inherit the Lu residence before your father was alive," Lu Shichuan said, "Tomorrow is your coming-of-age ceremony, and it's time for me to fulfill my promise."

Lu Yulin subconsciously went to look at Jin Zezhi, who was absorbed in eating the rice, so he had no choice but to say, "But I'm not ready yet."

"get ready?"

Lu Shichuan repeated these three words in a tone that made Lu Yulin dare not speak out, "I have given you five years to prepare."

Lu Yulin didn't dare to refute easily.

"When you become an adult, I hope you can learn to think carefully and keep my words firmly in mind." Lu Shichuan looked at him and stated a fact, "What I want to entrust to you is the future of the Lu family, not a piece of work. It is a valuable item that you can play with, if you live up to my expectations, then the Lu family will be destroyed in your hands."

These words suddenly fell on Lu Yulin's back like a heavy burden. In the past, he only knew that he would inherit the Lu family, but no one had ever reminded him of the importance of this matter. Apart from feeling distressed, he didn't care about it more often. Didn't take it too seriously.

"Uncle..."

When Lu Shichuan said this, he suddenly had some appetite, "Okay, don't let me ruin your good mood today."

Lu Yulin forced a smile.

After dinner, Lu Shichuan and Jin Zezhi went to the study together.

Tomorrow is the first time for Jin Zezhi to formally participate in a banquet about the Lu family. He and Lu Yulin will take this opportunity to appear together in the eyes of celebrities from all walks of life, so they must make proper preparations.

"sit."

Jin Zezhi sat on the chair in front of the desk, "Do you want to ask me about tomorrow's banquet?"

"I won't tell you not to put too much pressure on yourself," Lu Shichuan tapped the table, "but Yulin needs your encouragement. If you have time, you can talk to Yulin after returning from my place."

Jin Zezhi sat upright slowly, "Sir, I think you seem to have misunderstood my relationship with Yulin."

"I didn't misunderstand anything."

Jin Zezhi raised his eyes and stared at Lu Shichuan, "I don't understand what you mean, sir." Lu Shichuan looked at him, and the deep black eyes made the latter quickly lose the battle. On the thin lips, "You once made me and Yulin live in harmony, I did it, that's all."

Lu Shichuan said in a low voice, "You don't need to explain to me." He didn't expect Jin Zezhi to be resistant to a simple request, which somewhat disrupted his next plan, "Answer me truthfully, Zezhi, you don't like Yulin ?"

Jin Zezhi calmly replied, "No, I think Yulin is a very good friend."

"But you don't want to deepen the friendship."

"Unless you ask me to."

From his expression, Lu Shichuan couldn't see any room for turning around, "I won't ask you to please anyone." After speaking, he waved his hand, "Go and rest."

After Jin Zezhi left, Lu Shichuan got up and walked to the French window to stand still.

Maybe it was really his method that was wrong.

This is not the way it should be.

After a long time, he rang the bell to ask the old butler to come to the study.

"Do you have anything to do with me?"

Lu Shichuan said: "Get ready for the young master's luggage, starting tomorrow, he will move out."
