Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

Ever since he brought Lu Shu back, his relationship with that adopted son of his had become a little more complicated.

Lu Sizheng was the successor that he had personally groomed. He was indeed highly capable, but Lu Shu was his biological daughter. Of course, he would be more biased towards this precious daughter that he had finally found.

Ever since Lu Shu returned to his side, some of the people in the gang who had originally been determined to follow Lu Sizheng began to waver. After all, no matter how powerful Lu Sizheng was, in terms of blood ties... he did not share a single drop of blood with Lu Xiangtian. No one could determine if everything that Lu Xiangtian had now would be left to his capable adopted son or his beloved biological daughter in the end.

During that period of time, everyone in the gang was restless. Lu Xiangtian had a headache for a while before he came up with a way to get Lu Sizheng to marry Lu Shu and make them a couple.

In this way, Lu Sizheng could truly become a family with them. In the future, it would not be a problem for him to pass on his inheritance to either of them.

Unfortunately, the heavens couldn't predict the future. Lu Xiangtian wanted to entrust his daughter to his adopted son, but he didn't know that his daughter already had someone in mind and wouldn't listen to him, no matter what. In the end, Lu Xiangtian couldn't dissuade Lu Shu from marrying Li Yan, and from then on, the relationship between Lu Sizheng and Lu Shu became even more rigid.

Over the past few years, Lu Xiangtian had seen the open and hidden conflicts between the two of them, but he didn't interfere because of certain considerations. He had always thought that Lu Sizheng was unhappy with Lu Shu; he did not expect that Lu Sizheng would actually move on behalf of Lu Shu. Could it be that he had misunderstood all along and that the relationship between the two of them was not as ragged as he had imagined? Or perhaps there was something fishy going on that he did not know about?

The butler saw that Lu Xiangtian's expression was changing unpredictably, and he could not tell what he was thinking about. After hesitating for a long time, he could not help but call out in a low voice, "The master, other than that, there's..."

"There's more?" Lu Xiangtian came back to his senses and frowned at the butler.

The butler took a deep breath, he said in a low voice, "I asked someone to investigate the curious man and found that the person seemed to have a good relationship with that Ms. Zhao. After he was hospitalized, Ms. Zhao and Mr. Mu even went to the hospital to personally visit him."

The butler's words made Lu Xiangtian understand what was going on. "You think that this matter has something to do with Ms. Zhao?"

The butler nodded. Lu Xiangtian did not say anything else. He curled his index finger and tapped the table repeatedly. His gloomy expression and his deep gaze made it impossible for others to see through his thoughts at this moment.

The butler and Lu Xiangtian were the only two people in the study room. The butler saw that Lu Xiangtian was frowning and deep in thought, so he naturally did not dare to disturb him. For a moment, the entire room was only occupied by the sound of Lu Xiangtian tapping the table.

After an unknown amount of time, Lu Xiangtian seemed to have finally understood something and came back to his senses. He turned to look at the butler and said, "Get someone to investigate if the two ladies share any past grudges. Also, find out what is Ms. Zhao's motive for investigating Shu'er's background."

Lu Xiangtian felt that Lu Shu's hostility toward Zhao Youlin did not seem to be on a whim, and that Zhao Youlin's sudden investigation of Lu Shu's background was not as simple as it seemed.

The butler was stunned for a moment, but he quickly understood Lu Xiangtian's plan. He nodded and said, "Yes, I will get someone to investigate it."

"Also, get someone to investigate the reason why that cop deliberately got close to Ms. Zhao."

The butler was stunned for a moment, then nodded and replied, "Okay."

The butler had finished explaining everything to Lu Xiangtian, but Lu Xiangtian did not relax much after hearing it. There was a faint sense of unease in his heart, and the roots were spreading.

Lu Shu was furious. It was not good for her to lose her temper in front of Lu Xiangtian, but when she returned home, her expression immediately darkened. She picked up the things in front of her and did not even look at what they were. She threw them onto the ground.

With a crash, the expensive blue-and-white porcelain vase was smashed into pieces. However, none of the servants who were guarding the side dared to go forward to dissuade her. Not only did they not dare to go forward, they even lowered their heads in fear. They were trying to minimize their presence. It was obvious that this was a common sight.

Lu Shu had almost smashed everything in the living room. Only then did her mood calm down slightly. She sat on the sofa and panted.

However, when she looked up and saw the mess on the floor, she suddenly felt angry again. "What are you looking at? Hurry up and clean up this place. Do you want me to do it myself?"

The servants seemed to have woken up from their dreams. They rushed forward in a hurry and cleaned up the mess on the floor as quickly as possible.

Lu Shu looked at the living room that was gradually returning to its original state and still felt uncomfortable holding her breath in her chest. Lu Xiangtian had managed to deal with it temporarily, but as for Li Yan... she did not know whether those people were tight-lipped or not, would they expose her?

What if... What if Li Yan found out that she had actually hired someone to kill him? How would he react? Would he come back to settle the score with her? Or would he be so disappointed in her that he was unwilling to see her again?

The more Lu Shu thought about it, the more upset and uneasy she became. She got up and paced back and forth in the living room. If she didn't think about it, what she was really afraid of would come true.

Just as Lu Shu was feeling uneasy, she was thinking about how she could not let Li Yan know about this matter and how she could explain it to him if Li Yan found out about it, suddenly, a servant barged in from outside and shouted, "Miss, Miss, Sir is... back."

"What?" Lu Shu was shocked. She was about to grab the maid and ask how Li Yan looked when he came back. Was he happy or unhappy? Li Yan had already rushed in from outside.

Lu Shu's expression suddenly froze, but she quickly recovered and greeted him with a faint smile. "Brother Yan, why are you back so early today? Are you finally freed up from work?"

Li Yan glanced coldly at Lu Shu with a sullen face and chuckled. "Don't you know why I came back so early?"

This was the first time Lu Shu had seen Li Yan's expression so ugly. Her heart sank, and the first thing that came to her mind was, 'Oh no, he knows!'

Lu Shu cursed silently in her heart, but she did not show it on her face at all, facing Li Yan's questioning. She put up an even more innocent look. "Brother Yan, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand anything at all? Did you encounter something troublesome outside today? Why don't you tell me? Maybe I can help."
