Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

She had originally planned to bring Li Yan along to visit Lu Xiangtian today, but after Li Yan heard her suggestion, he turned her down without thinking. He even said that there was a particularly urgent case that required overtime work today. It was better for her to come alone.

Although she and Li Yan were not in the same department, she basically knew everything about Li Yan's work. Before this, she had never heard of any particularly urgent case in the bureau that required overtime work. Li Yan's words were clearly evasive.

Lu Shu felt resentful, but she had no choice but to put on a show of compassionate understanding. She came to see Lu Xiangtian on her own.

In the end, Lu Shu discovered that Lu Xiangtian's attitude toward her had also become much colder. In fact, ever since they met Zhao Youlin at the Su family, Lu Xiangtian's attitude toward her had become increasingly unpredictable. At first, there were only subtle changes. In addition to that, she did not stay with the Lu family all the time, so she did not notice it from the beginning. However, ever since she went to the Mu family to see Zhao Youlin that day... Lu Xiangtian had only turned colder towards her. She was not a fool, so how could she be so slow to notice that Lu Xiangtian was distancing himself from her?

Then, when she thought about Lu Xiangtian's attitude toward her during this period, Lu Shu could not help but feel a little flustered. Had Lu Xiangtian discovered something? What had caused his attitude toward her to change? What was the background of this Zhao Youlin, and why was she able to sway Lu Xiangtian so easily?

Lu Shu was panicking in her heart. Who would have thought that she would bump into Lu Sizheng again when she went out? It really was as the old saying went, 'When the house leaks, rain falls.' Lu Shu's mood could do nothing more than worsen.

"He was busy with something, so I came over by myself," Lu Shu replied nonchalantly, but her tone could not help but betray a hint of impatience.

Lu Sizheng's eyes curved up. With a faint smile, he said, "Brother-in-law is really a busy man. Sister, you only come back once a week after your wedding, but even then, you hardly get to see him. Whenever you ask, he's always busy. Honestly, he's even busier than father and myself. Such a hard worker. Sister, you must be very lonely too, right?"

Lu Sizheng's last sentence struck a particularly sore spot. That's right. Li Yan was so busy that he stayed at work every day and didn't come home. She would indeed be lonely, very lonely!

Lu Shu took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. However, her next words took on a far sharper tone. "Sizheng, since you have the leisure to care about my matters, why don't you take good care of yourself? You're no longer young. It's not good for you not to find a girl to settle down with. I heard that you seem to be quite interested in the President of the Zhao Group recently. Unfortunately, she's already a married woman. No matter how much you like her, she won't be yours. Why don't you find another one? With your current status, why would you worry about not finding a woman?"

Lu Sizheng was not too surprised that Lu Shu knew that he was trying to curry favor with Zhao Youlin. He chuckled and easily shot her down. "Sister, are you speaking from experience?"

The smile on Lu Shu's face froze. She knew that Lu Sizheng was mocking her. He was mocking her for falling in love with a man who had another woman in his heart. She had tried every means to get a man to marry her, but in the end, what happened? She got the man, but in the end, his heart was never hers.

Lu Shu was the first to break in the war of words. She gritted her teeth. "Lu Sizheng, don't go too far!"

"Sister, you're missing the point. I'm just concerned about you. Why would I go too far?"

"You!"

Lu Sizheng looked at Lu Shu's face, which was twisted with jealousy and anger. For some reason, he suddenly felt a little disgusted, and the smile on his face faded. He leaned closer to Lu Shu's ear and whispered, "That's enough. Miss Lu Shu, don't forget who gave you everything you have today. Back then, I was able to support you with my own hands. Now, I can pull you down from this position at any time. If you don't believe me, you can try."

Lu Shu widened her eyes and glared at Lu Sizheng indignantly. Without saying anything else, she stomped out of the room in her high heels.

Lu Sizheng watched as her figure gradually disappeared into the distance. A hint of disdain slowly surfaced in his indifferent eyes.

"Young Master." Lu Sizheng was in a daze when someone suddenly walked over from behind and whispered into his ear.

Lu Sizheng's dazed eyes suddenly turned sharp. "Someone has already started investigating?"

"Yes, Young Master. This matter..."

"Keep this under wraps for now. Don't let the old man know about it."

"But..." The man seemed to be a little hesitant.

Lu Sizheng's face was slightly cold. Before the man finished speaking, he interrupted him, "Are you working for me or the old man?"

The man's face turned pale. He said anxiously, "Yes, I'll do it right away."

"Wait." Lu Sizheng called out to the man again.

"Young Master... is there anything else?"

Lu Sizheng looked sternly at the man and said in a low voice, "Let some relevant information leak out."

The man was stunned. "Young Master, what do you mean?"

"You came to my side to be my confidant. Do I have to teach you everything?"

"No, no, no, I understand. I'll do it right away." The man hurriedly left, as if he was running away from an impending tsunami.

Lu Sizheng watched the man leave with narrowed eyes. He turned his gaze and fixed it on the blooming rose in front of him. He reached out and broke the beautiful flower down. Then, he crushed the bright petals into pieces one by one!

Zhao Youlin thought that after that incident, Lu Sizheng would come looking for her soon. However, nothing happened according to her expectations. After that day, not only did Lu Sizheng not look for her, even the roses that he sent to her every day stopped coming.

Zhao Youlin heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, her heart was slightly worried. She was afraid that this was the calm before a storm.

However, even though she was on guard, Zhao Youlin had no idea how to set up safeguards against Lu Sizheng. No matter what, she was still the President of the Zhao Group. Even though Zhao Shunrong had helped her a lot... there were still some things that she had to handle personally. For example, her routinely scheduled meetings with Sirius.

However, on this particular day, Sirius was clearly not in the mood. Not only was he clearly distracted, but he also looked at Zhao Youlin from time to time with an expression that said he wanted to say something but was hesitant.

In the end, Zhao Youlin could not stand it anymore. She placed the proposal in her hand down on the table and stared at the person opposite her with a half-smile and said, "Sirius, something on your mind? Did you encounter any trouble? Do you need help?"
