When Xu Yuan returned home, she did not receive the same kind of greetings from her parents as before. Instead, she received a scolding.
Mr. Xu’s eyes were red with anger.
“I gave birth to you only to cause trouble. What did I tell you? Don’t look for Lu Beihuai, don’t look for him. Are you ignoring my words? Why don’t you take a look at our family’s conditions? How can we get close to someone like Lu Beihuai?”
Although he spoiled her a little because he only had one daughter in the family, even he felt that his daughter was not worthy of Lu Beihuai.
There were so many aristocratic families in Upper City. Did she really think that those outstanding young ladies were not tempted?
But did they succeed?
Even such outstanding young ladies from wealthy families could not succeed. It would be a miracle if Lu Beihuai really liked her.
It was not that he was belittling his daughter. It was just that his daughter’s rude behavior at the banquet made Lu Beihuai very unhappy. He was afraid of causing trouble and forcefully pulled his daughter away.
Lu Beihuai hadn’t been in Upper City for a few months, so she was considered well-behaved. However, he didn’t expect his daughter to look for him so eagerly as soon as he returned.
She even went to their company to cause trouble. Now, she had completely angered Lu Beihuai, and even their collaboration had failed.
What kind of injustice did he give birth to?!
…
Lu Beihuai and the others would not pay attention to what happened to the Xu family after this.
At this moment, everyone in the Lu family was immersed in the excitement of Lu Xiaocha coming to the company.
“Baby, what do you want to eat? I’ll get my secretary to buy it for you.”
Lu Xiaocha shook her head. “I’m not hungry yet.”
Lu Beichen smiled and exposed her. “Of course she’s not hungry. She ate at the food street from beginning to end and only came over after eating.”
The Lu family was speechless.
Lu Xiaocha smiled widely. “Brother and I came to see you.”
“Sure. Where do you want to go? Ask your brother to bring you around. Your father has a meeting soon, so I have to watch.”
Lu Xiaocha nodded and chatted with her parents in the office for a while. After the two of them went to the meeting, Lu Beihuai brought them to the company to stroll around.
The various departments of this huge company were strictly controlled. Almost everyone had their own things to do. Occasionally, when they relaxed, they could even secretly slack off.
As long as they did not go overboard and did their own thing, sometimes the leaders would turn a blind eye to such behavior.
Every time Lu Beihuai went to a department, he would see those people straighten their backs instantly. At that moment, their work efficiency suddenly increased.
“Manager Lu, why are you here?”
Lu Beihuai nodded and said lightly, “Bringing them around.”
“Come here…”
Right after that, Lu Beihuai began to talk about the company’s situation. Lu Beichen listened very seriously. Lu Xiaocha was stunned and did not understand at all.
She stole a glance at her brother. Seeing how serious he was, she was impressed.
After walking around, her eldest brother even tested him!
Lu Xiaocha took a deep breath and secretly moved behind her brother, almost hiding.
‘Can’t see me, can’t see me…’
However, what she was afraid of came true. In the end, Lu Beihuai still called her name.
“Xiaocha.”
Lu Xiaocha was speechless.
‘Come on, can’t you just pretend you didn’t see me?’
She slowly moved out.
“Brother, what’s the matter?”
She could only look at Lu Beihuai and try to get away by acting cute.
Her two brothers looked at her with smiles in their eyes.
Lu Beihuai took a sip of tea. “What do you think of our company?”
Lu Xiaocha immediately gave him a thumbs-up with a serious expression. “Good, very good, very good. Under Daddy, Mommy, and Brother’s leadership, the company will definitely be better in the future.”

Forgive this bottom-feeder. She could only flatter him.
Lu Beihuai’s cold and sharp eyes softened a lot. Lu Xiaocha did not notice, but Lu Beichen did.
His sister was so cute. Who wouldn’t like her?
“Then tell me why it’s good.”
Lu Xiaocha was instantly stuck. She scratched her head and her exquisite face scrunched up. She showed what it meant to have every hair on her body racking their brains to think of a way to answer.
“Because… because…”
Before she could figure it out, she saw the smile in her brothers’ eyes. Alright, she finally realized that she was being teased.
Lu Xiaocha’s face fell as she looked at the two of them.
“Brothers, you two are teasing me.”
Lu Beichen held his fist to his lips to hide his smile. It was indeed quite fun.
Lu Beihuai stopped teasing her and said to her,
“You’re going to the orphanage?”
Lu Xiaocha nodded. She was not afraid as long as he did not ask her any profound questions. She sat beside her brother.
“Yes, I want to visit the orphanage.”
That was her first home in this world. The first kindness she received was also at the orphanage.
Therefore, she still missed that place.
Lu Beihuai nodded. “I’ve asked someone to prepare everything. Let’s go together.”
“Will we be holding you up?”
“No,” Lu Beihuai answered.
“I haven’t been there before. Let’s go take a look.”
They set off with a lot of things.
Starlight Orphanage…
With the investment and the Lu family’s attention, this place was no longer as simple and dilapidated as before.
Lu Zhan personally got someone to buy a large piece of land around here to build houses. He even hired someone to take care of these children. The entire orphanage had changed drastically like a newly built kindergarten. It was new and beautiful.
When Lu Beihuai and the others got out of the car, they could vaguely hear the cheerful voices of the children coming from the orphanage.
“Dang dang dang…”
A familiar noise sounded. Lu Xiaocha knew that it was the bell for dinner.
The place had clearly changed drastically, but the bell was still the same as before.
Whether it was class or dinner, the director personally rang the bell.
When Lu Xiaocha heard this voice, she subconsciously wanted to run to the orphanage canteen.
The next second, her collar was grabbed.
Lu Beichen: “… Where are you going?”
Lu Xiaocha looked at him blankly. “Eat.”
Lu Beichen and Lu Beihuai were speechless.
Lu Xiaocha scratched her face in embarrassment. “I heard the bell for lunch.”
When she was in the orphanage, no one could run faster than her when the bell sounded.
She ate a lot. The director was worried that she would finish all the food in the orphanage.
Little did she know that she was already eating very restrainedly at that time. When she was not full, she ran up the mountain to find something to eat.
In any case, with her power, she would not starve to death in such a world.
The bodyguards went to unload the goods, and Lu Xiaocha ran in with bags in both hands.
The children who did not go to the canteen were stunned when they saw Lu Xiaocha and the others. Their eyes lit up as they ran and shouted.
“Director, director, someone is here to give us presents!”
