"Grandpa, I have never brought a female companion." Lu Jingyun rarely attended banquets, and there were only a few occasions when he did not have a female companion.
With a gloomy expression, he didn't give any face to Mr. Lu's request.
"That's not a female companion, just take her there by the way and take care of her." Mr. Lu was rejected by his grandson, and his face was a little awkward. Still shrewd eyes, put pressure on Lu Jingyun.
"That's it, Yan Chen will also go tomorrow, I'll let him take care of him."
"You... She doesn't know Yan Chen. I promised that girl. Do you want my grandfather to disbelieve me?"
"She doesn't know me either. Grandpa, don't be hard on others." Lu Jingyun did not compromise at all, which has made the atmosphere between the grandparents and grandchildren even more tense. "Jingyun, just follow your grandfather this time. It's not a big deal. At least you pick up the girl from the Lu family, and after sending her off, you don't have to worry about it. Is that okay?"
Lu Zhen opened his mouth to help ease the atmosphere and put forward reasonable requirements.
"Lu Jingyun, are you helping or not? Don't think I can't support you when I'm old. I tell you, if you don't take care of the Lu family girl, you don't want me to accept your wife. Humph!"
Obviously, the old man was really annoyed, and he said such threats.
And Lu Jingyun's face was also ugly, his expression was condensed, and his deep black eyes shot cold light.
"Dad, don't be angry, don't be angry. Your health is not good, you must take care of your health! Jing Yun, please promise quickly, don't make your grandfather angry." Lu Zhen winked at Lu Jingyun, still soothing the old man's emotions.
Just when the atmosphere was stagnant after being silent for a long time, Lu Jingyun finally spoke.
"Just once."
After speaking, he quickly got up and left the old house.
Old Man Lu always had a bad face. After Lu Zhen handed him the tea, he persuaded him, "Dad, I don't think your method is good. Doesn't this make Jingyun hate Lu's girl even more?"
"Hmph, he doesn't like anyone anyway."
"Hehe... Dad, don't you know this? I used to be anxious, but now that he is married, at least he will be able to have a grandson soon, which is not bad."
"Okay? How do you feel? His wife has never seen her face, so you know it? How can someone with unknown origin be the mistress of my Lu family?"
"Then they have all got the certificate, what else can we do? Besides, Dad, it's not like you don't know Jingyun's temperament. If he doesn't give up, none of us want him to let go." Lu Zhen really knew this nephew very well. , Over the years, this kid has made his elders jealous. It makes people laugh, but Lu Jingyun's deterrent power is not comparable to Lu Zhen's.
Grandpa Lu obviously knew that, so he couldn't help being silent, and there was nothing to refute.
However, just letting the grandson take the woman he doesn't like back to the Lu family will take a lifetime, no matter how he thinks about it, he is not happy.
"Lu Tong, don't you have anything to say as a father?" Mr. Lu looked at the eldest son who was silent and looked like he was useless. When he thought about it, he got angry and couldn't help but attack Lu Tong. "Look at you, I'm afraid of sons, why are you so useless? Can't you show your majesty as a father and talk to Jing Yun well?"
"Hehe... Dad, you know that I'm useless, can I handle Jing Yun? I've never taught that kid, so I can't."
Lu Tong was scolded, but he still smiled gracefully and beautifully, and he was not angry. He happily admitted that he could not deal with his son.
The old man Lu was completely speechless, snorted heavily, and simply went back to his room.
The smile on Lu Tong's face remained the same. Lu Zhen, who was beside him, looked at his eldest brother with a heartless look. Contempt flashed in his eyes, but it disappeared quickly, and no one noticed.
"Brother, I heard that you have another girlfriend? This time a twenty-year-old college student?"
Lu Tong smiled and didn't answer.
"Azhen, I'll go first, I'm useless, I always make Dad angry. As for you, do your best for eldest brother and persuade Dad."
After speaking, he left without looking back.
Lu Zhen sneered, the meaning in his eyes was unclear.
Lu Jingyun's expression was always cold, and when he returned to his apartment, his anger lingered for a long time.
After coming out of the bathroom, thinking of calling Joey, he changed his mind and let himself relax.
It took a while for the phone to be picked up, and it was Joey's voice that seemed a little weak.
"Yiyi, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, come to a party with colleagues."
"Didn't we just get together last night? Are we together tonight?"
"Why, can't you? They are too enthusiastic, and it is difficult for me to show my kindness." Joey said, but why did Lu Jingyun's words sound a bit unpleasant?
"Yes, yes, but, Yiyi, do you like it? If you don't like it, don't go."
"Hmph, it's up to me to say whether I like it or not?" Joey yelled at him suddenly irritably and loudly. There was anger, grievance and irritability in his voice.
"Yiyi, darling, what's the matter? Did they do something?"
Lu Jingyun asked anxiously, very worried about Joey's mood. It seems that you really don't like those parties, so why go there?
"It's not what they did, it's you Lu Jingyun, Young Master Lu, what did you do?"
Joey's voice was sharp and questioning. "I have to thank you. These colleagues are so enthusiastic about me. They toast me, give me gifts, say nice things, drink and eat without spending money, and call me for any activities. What about the company's adults?"
After questioning and questioning, the tone of voice gradually changed, and it became more aggrieved and complained. The words were slowly spit out clearly, and the voice was a little bit of crying.
"Lu Jingyun, do you think I have to thank you?"
"Yiyi, how much alcohol did you drink?"
Lu Jingyun was certain that this little woman had definitely drank too much.
However, what she said still made him feel uncomfortable.
"Do you care how much I drink? It's not about spending your money, it's someone else's treat."
"Okay, I don't care. But, where are you now? Are you home? Are you uncomfortable? Hurry up and get some honey water to drink."
"What are you talking about? Why are you so annoying?" Joey shouted in disgust, and Lu Jingyun was even more worried.
The mobile phone here was listening carefully to what Joey's voice was saying, and the other mobile phone over there quickly made a call to Jiangcheng and asked about the two people who protected Joey.
After hearing that Joey had been sent home by a friend, Lu Jingyun was relieved.
"Yi?"
Lu Jingyun, who could only hear her breathing, tried to ask aloud.
"kindness?"
"If you want to sleep, you must go to the bedroom, you know? Good Yiyi, wake up a little, don't lie on the sofa."
"Well..."
It was already a reflex response, apparently falling asleep.
Lu Jingyun was helpless, and didn't know if she was in bed now. I was still worried.
He didn't hang up, just listened to Joey's sleepy breathing through the phone.
Originally, Joey was going to tell her about the Lu family's situation in advance tonight, so that she could be prepared. Now, let him be unprepared.
Obviously, Joey is troubled by his current identity and the attitude of the people around him. She has always been soft-hearted and unrelenting. She can refuse to go to such a colleague's invitation, and there is no problem, but she did not refuse. When she was bored, she felt more uncomfortable.
Joey's troubles and displeasure made him feel distressed, and he also felt guilty about Joey's complaints. He never felt that his status as the head of the Lu family would make him wish he was just an ordinary man one day.
Look, now it's not just that Joey's mental problems have not been resolved, but also that Mr. Lu ran out to make trouble. He is confident that he will not make Joey angry because of other women's problems, but he can't avoid giving him money because of his own family. Trouble with myself and Joey.
Lu Jingyun really felt sadness in his heart, his mother's sadness, he used to just listen, but now he is experiencing it himself.
However, it is not that his mother is powerless, he is a man, and he should take up the responsibility of a man and protect his beloved woman. This is not thirty years ago, and he is not a mother who can't control anything. He is the head of the Lu family, and the power in his hands is not only to benefit his family, but also to protect the people he wants to protect.
"Yiyi, trust me, just trust me without any scruples like before."
Lu Jingyun spoke softly to the phone, even if Joey couldn't hear it, this was his promise and hope to Joey.
