Something happened to the Lu family, and they almost faced bankruptcy. No one was willing to help, and everyone was avoiding them like snakes and scorpions. Some people even added insult to injury. At this time, Gu Pingyuan appeared and said that he could provide a sum of funds. The only requirement was that Lu Yichen should return. Arrive at the Gu family.
On the other end of the phone, Lu Qianlan paused for a moment before saying, "I gave the first tranche of funds..."
"The first stroke?" Lu Yichen raised his eyebrows.
Lu Qianlan smiled bitterly, "He said... it will be paid in batches, one payment per month."
This is nothing more than deliberately trying to drag down the Lu family. The Lu family cannot be defeated, but they cannot recover quickly either.
They could only be led by Gu Pingyuan.
Lu Yichen's eyes turned cold, "He doesn't mean what he says."
This Gu Pingyuan is so cunning!
Lu Qianlan was also full of helplessness, "He said that Gu has been spending money on many projects recently, so the cash flow is inconvenient. He has said so. What can I do?"
At least the Lu family still has this life-saving money to support them.
Lu Yichen asked her about her situation again, fearing that their conversation would be monitored, so he hung up without further conversation.
"Knock knock knock—"
Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
Lu Yichen put down his phone and asked quietly, "What's the matter?"
The servant outside said, "Master Yichen, I want you to go to his study."
"Okay, got it."
Lu Yichen lay on the bed and wiped his face with his hands.
Although he usually had no expression and rarely showed his emotions, he felt very tired if he had to be with Gu Pingyuan all the time and still restrain his expression of disgust.
It turns out that acting is such a tiring thing.
Lu Yichen talked for a while, and without wasting much time, he got up, got out of bed, and walked out of the room.

the other side.
Mu Xiaoxiao thought she was really going back to Yin's house.
However, Yin Shaojie drove the car back to the apartment where they lived.
Along the way, the atmosphere was a bit cold.
She tried to chat with him and try to lighten the atmosphere, but Yin Shaojie didn't really answer her words and almost left her to perform a one-man show by herself.
Oh, it’s so tiring to sing a one-man show. In the end she simply stopped talking.
Back at the apartment, Mu Xiaoxiao walked obediently behind him and helped him take off his coat, like a little daughter-in-law.
When Yin Shaojie sat on the sofa, she leaned over and squeezed his shoulders.
"Jie, I just saw that you didn't eat a few bites at Gu's house. Are you hungry? How about we order takeout?"
In fact, she didn't eat much. After taking a few bites of vegetables, she piled them on the bone plate.
Yin Shaojie looked at her and asked, "Are you hungry?"
"I don't… "
Just when I was about to say that I wasn't hungry, my stomach growled sincerely.
Mu Xiaoxiao, "..."
Didn’t you just finish your meal? Although she didn't eat much, she still had a few bites. Why was she hungry
She felt so embarrassed.
Was he a starving ghost in his previous life
Yin Shaojie twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "My mouth is too straight."
"I didn't..."
I wanted to retort, but my stomach growled again uncooperatively.
Mu Xiaoxiao covered his face.
Now there is no face left!
Yin Shaojie suddenly stood up and left the sofa.
Mu Xiaoxiao hurriedly followed, "Where are you going? Okay, okay, I'm hungry. I didn't even eat a few mouthfuls just now. How can I have the appetite to eat? Only now do I realize how hard it is to keep pretending to smile. , that’s why the food we just ate was digested so quickly.”
I can only find this excuse.
But thinking about it, it seems quite reasonable.
She is a straightforward person. She likes things when she likes them, and dislikes things when she dislikes them. She cannot do anything hypocritical.
