Chapter 734: The cannon fodder best friend of the abusive heroine (32)
No wonder the original plot also focused on describing the emotional pull between him and the heroine Zhao Zhaozhao.
Zhao Zhaozhao successfully moved into the Lu family's ancestral home with the help of the token and Fu Lihan.
Lu Zhixing was obedient to her and responded to her requests.
This time, Zhao Zhaozhao, as the heroine, was deeply involved in emotional struggles and entanglements.
After all, Lu Zhixing is not inferior to Fu Lihan in terms of strength or appearance.
In the end, the male partner was no match for the male protagonist, but the female protagonist still chose Fu Lihan without hesitation, betraying the Lu family who treated her like jewels.
Therefore, Lu Zhixing's kindness to him was entirely due to his personality.
At this moment, even if the person sitting in front of him is not Jiang Lai, but another person whom he regards as his sister, he will still be favored by him.
So Jiang Lai is very sober.
You can be moved, but only a little.
She could forget all about it in the time it took to go to the toilet.
Little Pudding could feel Jiang Lai's emotional fluctuations, and naturally knew that Jiang Lai was sober and calm at this time.
"I don't believe you are not moved at all."
"I will always be moved by money."
"Tch! It sounds like who doesn't, but it's good that you are like this now, and it will save you from feeling uncomfortable after you leave this world."
Jiang Lai closed his eyes nonchalantly.
She was tired after a day of shopping. After returning home, she took a few bites and went to bed.
Lu Zhixing did not leave immediately after cleaning up, but helped Jiang Lai clean up the living room again.
Here, he saw Jiang Lai's desk placed in the corner of the living room.
The table was filled with various postgraduate entrance examination materials. In addition to the table, the floor, and the windowsill, traces of Jiang Lai's efforts could be seen everywhere the eyes could see.
Opening the book, the dense markings on it make people feel a little shocked.
Lu Zhixing had never worked so hard. Ever since he was a child, everything seemed to go smoothly no matter what he did.
This was how he went to school. He easily entered university, successfully secured postgraduate study, and then successfully entered the best university in the world to study for a Ph.D.
The same goes for work, although it is tiring, it will not make him feel exhausted.
When Jiang came here, he felt the energy magnetic field emanating from a person's efforts.
Very novel and shocking.
After seeing the pen refills that Jiang Lai had used up, he felt inexplicably distressed in his heart.
Jiang Lai is very good, so good that even his elder brother feels inferior to him.
He did not touch this corner, but sat on the windowsill and picked up a book that Jiang Lai had read.
Late at night, Lu Zhixing turned the book to the last page.
Here, he saw a sentence marked by Jiang Lai.
"I am always looking for the meaning of life. Some do it for family, some do it for desire, some do it for love, and some do it for righteousness.
But when I have no worries, no love and no righteousness, what is the meaning of my life?
Then I looked up and saw the stars above me and the river below.
At this moment I also found meaning for my life. ”
This is the protagonist’s reflections on life at the end.
Lu Zhixing had read this book before. He just felt that the author was complaining and saying meaningless and empty words.
But when he saw the words Jiang Lai left below this sentence, a different emotion suddenly surged in his heart.
"Living does not need any meaning."
There was some fluctuation in his heart.
The guilt I felt when facing Jiang Lai turned into a faint sourness.
What had she experienced before that made her say such heavy words?
——
At 7:58 pm, the reception started.
The entrance of the hotel, which is as gorgeous and spacious as the Golden Hall in Vienna, is filled with luxury cars.
After Lu Zhixing got out of the car, he walked around the car and helped Jiang Lai open the door.
With his slender hand blocking the car door, the man reminded him warmly.
"Be careful."
Logically speaking, this was the first time Jiang Lai had seen such a scene. Lu Zhixing was worried that she would be nervous, so he asked her to hold his arm and go in together from the moment he got off the car.
On the stage under the spotlight, the cellist was playing soothing and melodious music.
The venue has a total of three floors. It is not too big but is exquisite and elegant everywhere.
The waiter came over with a silver dinner plate and handed them a glass of champagne.
"Can I drink it?"
"It's okay."
The alcohol content of this champagne was very low, and it had a sour orange taste in the mouth. Jiang Lai liked it very much and had two or three glasses with Lu Zhixing.
Although Lu Zhixing said that this was just an ordinary business reception and there was no need to be too nervous, judging from the people who attended the reception, it was not a simple reception.
Dinners in the upper class circles all have a purpose, the bosses talk to each other, and business worth hundreds of millions is done in the light of day.
As the richest man in the Lu family, and Lu Zhixing as the son of the richest man, he must be the most conspicuous presence at the reception.
Just from the moment I walked in, many people came over to chat and toast.
Lu Zhixing was used to this kind of situation, and he was able to deal with bosses of different genders, ages and statuses with ease.
When others ask him to introduce Jiang Lai, he will say it seriously.
"My sister-in-law, Lu Lai, is weak and has been recuperating abroad since she was a child. Now that she is older, I, the older brother, brought her out to get to know everyone."
"Sister? Mr. Lu has hidden it well. This is the first time for us to meet such a beautiful sister! Come on, let me give you a toast!"
"Well, she is not in good health, so I drank this glass of wine on her behalf."
After drinking, Lu Zhixing put down his cup and left directly with Jiang Lai.
He has a gentle and distant attitude towards these partners, with the aloofness and reserve of a wealthy family.
The other party also respectfully watched them leave.
As soon as the two left, several people behind them whispered.
"When did the Lu family have a daughter?"
"Could it be that my lover was too embarrassed to introduce me, so I just said she was my sister."
"Lu Zhixing is not that kind of person. He is not a womanizer. He has always been alone at banquets. This time he brought a girl. Since he said she is his sister, she must be his biological sister.
The Lu family has been hiding deep enough. After so many years, there has been no news at all. ”
The chatter reached Fu Lihan's ears.
He noticed it just now when Lu Zhixing showed up with Jiang Lai.
According to what he knew about Lu Zhixing, it was impossible for him to show up with an unknown woman.
At first he thought Jiang Lai was just a lover of Lu Zhixing.
Now it seems that Jiang Lai's identity is not simple.
Even if she wasn't his sister, she was definitely a very important person to Lu Zhixing.
Thinking of the big loss he suffered not long ago, he was furious and his face was gloomy and ugly.
As an upstart in the sea market, many people came to fawn over him, but as soon as Lu Zhixing showed up, these people would come over to him like dogs smelling the smell.
Fu Lihan sneered in his heart.
This is how the world is, the strong make the rules and the weak follow the rules.
Let him be bullied like this by Lu Zhixing just because he is not strong enough!
Looking at the backs of Jiang Lai and Lu Zhixing, the cup in Fu Lihan's hand was about to explode. (End of chapter)
