Huo Yunzheng raised his eyes and looked towards the direction Lu Yiyuan indicated, just in time to see Lu Jingyao and his wife slowly walking over.
He quickly took his wine cup and went over to greet the couple, and then gave his specially prepared birthday present. After exchanging several more pleasantries, he took the opportunity to whisper in Lu Jingyao's ear: "Uncle Lu, may I have a moment to speak with you?"
When Huo Yunzheng made this request, Lu Jingyao looked at him deeply, but he did not say anything. He felt that he had some things to say, so he went ahead and the two of them went upstairs to the study room.
Huo Yunzheng did not take a sip. After Lu Jingyao sat down, he took a sip of the fragrant tea, and was only willing to open his mouth after a long time. However, his attitude was not very good: "What is it that Yun Zheng wants to talk to me about?"
Lu Jingyao had watched Huo Yunzheng grow up, and the relationship between them could not be compared by others.
Lu Jingyao had thought of betrothing his daughter, Arrol Chen, to him. Unexpectedly, this thought was immediately rejected by Huo Yunzheng without hesitation.
Lu Jingyao could be said to be an influential figure in the business world, and what was even more important was what was said in the company. He never thought that Yue Yang would reject him so decisively, making him feel embarrassed.
As such, ever since then, he had been feeling a little uneasy about this junior of his.
After all, Arrol Chen was the precious daughter of a family, not to mention her beauty, her strength was comparable to a man. If Huo Yunzheng married Xiao Chen, that would be his fortune! Humph!
Any father who can tolerate his most precious daughter being "shunned"?
Huo Yunzheng naturally knew the repulsion Elder Lu had towards him. After all, it was already so obvious, and he himself wasn't blind. In comparison, Huo Yunzheng felt even more at ease. He picked up his teacup and took a sip, his starry eyes flashing.
I heard that the Lu Corporation has built a new hotel in C City and invested in the surrounding real estate projects as well. Furthermore, they have been looking for a suitable lighting company to work with recently? When junior heard this, I had a suitable choice in mind. I wonder if uncle is willing to listen.
"He's really impressive, being able to use your Boss Huo's relationship, why not tell me, which company is he from?"
Although Lu Jingyao was over a hundred years old and his body was not as healthy as before, he was still in good spirits. Even though the corners of his eyes were covered with wrinkles, his eyes still flashed with a shrewd look.
He looked at Huo Yunzheng, and a trace of probing flashed past his eyes.
"I presume... Uncle, you are not a stranger these days."
Huo Yunzheng did not explain anything. As soon as he finished speaking, his slender fingers knocked lightly on the armrest of the sofa. His black eyes looked at Elder Lu with a smile, and he remained silent.
"Could it be that girl called Gu Yi?"
Seeing that Huo Yunzheng did not say anything, Lu Jingyao knew that his guess was right and snorted coldly, "Could she be related to you?"
They were the leaders of the business world, had a high position and some age, had a lot of conservative and stubborn thoughts, and could easily be biased against some people today. They had unjustifiable prejudices, as well as unjustifiable prejudices.
For example, Gu Yi was one of the young people that he had an opinion of.
He could not deny that Gu Yi that little girl was very beautiful, comparable to his own daughter.
That day when he saw Ah Yuan sending her to the company's building, he sent someone to investigate her. However, her performance was so good that it surpassed many of the old people in the company. If one were to say that she had earned it by relying on his own abilities, Lu Jingyao did not believe that he was able to do it.
No woman with a beauty would take advantage of her looks. Besides, he had been in the business world for half his life and had seen countless people. He would never believe that there were no unspoken rules! He definitely would not believe it!]
Because of this, his first reaction after understanding this point was to stop her from communicating with A'Yuan.
He thought that she was just entangled with Ah Yuan and would take the chance to get on his side. Unexpectedly, her skills were pretty good, even Huo Yunzheng spoke up for her and interjected.
This time, Lu Jingyao's impression of Gu Yi became even worse, and he became even more disdainful of her. He secretly decided in his heart: Lu Family, absolutely wouldn't allow this kind of woman with a normal personality to enter! This was simply an insult to his family!
Huo Yunzheng clearly knew what he was worried about, and his reaction was also within Huo Yunzheng's expectations.
After reading this, he did not have much emotion, and continued to speak indifferently: "To be honest, Elder Lu, Gu Yi is my woman. The reason why Ah Yuan secretly made the decision to help Gu Yi was also because he wanted to help me. "
Yes.
When Huo Yunzheng came out from Lu Jingyao's study, he was just about to take out his phone to call Gu Yi, when he saw Su Mutong elegantly holding up her skirt, carefully walking towards him.
Looking at her legs, Huo Yunzheng secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
She couldn't help but remember what happened at noon. Fortunately, she was sent to the hospital in time. It was only a simple matter of time before she could move her feet freely.
Otherwise, if it was like before, and after being hospitalized for a year, Su Mutong would probably go crazy from the shock.
After all, she had suffered so much because of his fault. What a pure and kind girl. She should have had a beautiful youth, but now it was difficult to even get a healthy body. She even had to be on guard at all times.
Every time he thought of Su Ze Xuan's regretful gaze before his death, his only request to himself, and then looked at Su Mutong who had suffered, Huo Yunzheng's heart felt as painful as if it had been cut by a knife. Furthermore, it was filled with a feeling of guilt.
Silently putting the phone back in his pocket, he strode over to her and extended his hand to support her slender arm. He said gently, "It's getting late. Let's go back."
"En!"
Su Mutong nodded her head obediently. She had no intention to ask about what Huo Yunzheng and Elder Lu had discussed.
After sending her home as usual, just as Huo Yunzheng was prepared to turn around and leave, she didn't expect that this time Su Mutong held tightly onto his hand, begging him with a pitiful little voice: "Brother Huo, can you stay with me tonight? Mu Tong was afraid. "
