other, let alone grovel and fawn. She didn't need his investment; she could invest herself if she wanted to.Jiang Lan knew in his heart that...But he throws with, and to her, it's different.He glance...At two o'clock in the afternoon, Secretary Liu came to pick him up.

After getting in the car, Secretary Liu couldn't help but tease, "You look really spirited today!"

Lu Qian smiled modestly: "The little girl is clingy, where is the vigor and spirit It's only tiring!"

Ms. Liu smiled suggestively.

……

After the meeting, Lu Qian came out with a very bad complexion.

"Get in the car and talk!"

Once they were in the car, Lu Qian pulled the curtains shut and let out a long sigh: "Remember that project from six months ago"

Secretary Liu's eyes were piercing.

Lu Qian gently unbuttoned a shirt button, his voice suppressed: "I recommended Lu Jun! But today's meeting news, Lu Jun and his wife both died in an unknown car accident!"

Lily's secretary was stunned, taking a long time to recover.

Lu Qian lowered his head and lit a cigarette, but his fingers trembled. It took him a long time before he could take a puff. He hadn't told Liu's secretary that both Lu Jun and his wife had obvious bruises on their bodies!

Ultimately, the soldier and his wife sacrificed their lives to protect the data.

Projects, someone has to take the lead.

Lu Qian was the designated person, and this time he had no choice but to take on the responsibility.

He trembled as he held a cigarette between his fingers, taking slow drags. With his other hand, he reached into his pocket and pulled out the velvet box. He was supposed to propose to Mingzhu today, get married after the new year...

But can he still now

The image of his wife's tragic death, a soldier's wife, lingered in his mind, refusing to be erased!

Though he didn't explicitly state it, Liu the secretary, being well-informed and experienced, had already guessed what it was.

He sat silently.

Just then, a black Audi slammed into something with a violent impact, and Lu Qian in the back seat was thrown forward...

The car stopped, and ahead of them, a man in black rode a bicycle, his eyes glancing lightly into the car. His gaze seemed to have x-ray vision.

The driver was cursing and wanted to get out of the car.

Lu Qian endured the headache and stopped him: "Don't get off the car!"

Getting off the bus will be more dangerous!

As expected, the man, seeing that the car wouldn't move, rode away on his bicycle.

Secretary Liu climbed to the back seat and looked at his injuries: "Mr. Lu, how are you feeling"

Lu Qian covered his abdomen: It should be a broken rib.

There was no expression on his face, only ruthlessness: "During the meeting, I received news that this overseas company is really audacious!"

He longed to expose these people and avenge the army couple, but at this moment, he had to protect himself.

The phone rang.

It was Mingzhu who called. Lu Qian hesitated for a moment before picking up the phone and speaking softly, "Mingzhu, there's something urgent in City C, I have to go back first!"

...How disappointed Mingzhu is....

Lu Qian certainly knew.

But now, where would he dare go to the apartment with so many eyes watching him

He soothed her with a few gentle words.

After hanging up the phone, he instructed Liu's secretary: "Keep an eye on her until she gets home safely."

Ms. Liu nodded.

That night, Lu Qian checked into a private hospital in City C. With a broken rib and concussion, he should have been resting properly, but he couldn't sleep at all. He stood by the window smoking, standing there for most of the night.

At 4 a.m., Ms. Liu finished her work and came in.

He saw Lu Qian standing there smoking and immediately shouted, "With such a serious injury, how can you still smoke Lie down and rest! The doctor said you need to lie down for at least a week."

He helped the person lie down, while saying, "Where can work be finished"

As soon as the words left his mouth, he saw the diamond ring on Lu Qian's finger and fell silent.

Lu Qian leaned against the headboard, wryly smiling: “Lao Liu, look at my age, I’m still playing with young girls' feelings! Four years, you said what I would be like after four years Mingzhu, even though I always say she’s young, she’s 28 years old. After four years, she’ll be in her early thirties… where can she stay with me like this”

He truly couldn't have imagined that the group would know about the pearl...

He cannot take the risk!

Secretary Liu didn't dare to say a word, he knew Mr. Lu was in a difficult position.

Lu Qian only stayed in the hospital for three days.

On the day he was discharged from the hospital, Mingzhu called him. He looked at it silently for a long time and then hung up gently.

When he hung it up, his chest ached.

He thought, his little girl must not know that her Uncle Lu didn't want her anymore.

She must, be crying!

……

Lu Qian began to distance himself from her.

With his capabilities, it would have been child's play for him to manipulate a young girl. He didn't suddenly turn cold towards her, but rather slowly distanced himself, inflicting pain on her while simultaneously suffering deeply himself.

After the New Year, he resumed his busy work and returned to his former life.

Mr. Yi kept in touch with those people.

Lu Qian, return to the former Mr. Lu.

Early spring.

One New Year, Mingzhu lost several pounds. She couldn't get in touch with Lu Qian very often. Occasionally, when she did call, it was Liu's secretary who answered.

Liu's secretary always had an apologetic tone.

Even the most obtuse person could sense his distance, but she lacked the courage to confront him. She could only frequently run to the apartment, eagerly waiting for him.

Sometimes I wait for a whole day and forget to eat.

On Valentine's Day, she saw Mr. Lu's message.

He was cheering for Miss Hu at Chang Ting Yuan. After Miss Hu finished her performance, she changed into a very beautiful cheongsam. Lu Qian stood with her, holding her waist, looking quite mismatched.

The newspaper slips from my fingers...

He used to be in city B, but he didn't see her.

Her eyes were downcast, glistening with unshed tears, but she still dialed his number... She needed an explanation.

Lu Qian is at the club.

When the phone rang, he stopped dealing cards and stared at the number.

Mr. Yi teased, “How come, little tail, you’ve caught up again”

Lu Qian recovered from his surprise, smiling with a carefree and confident air: “He’s just a child, how long can he possibly hold onto that kind of enthusiasm”

He went on playing the traditional Chinese game, nonchalantly saying, "Ms. Hu, would you mind taking over for me"

Miss Hu was momentarily confused by his meaning. As a woman, she was sensitive and sensed that Mr. Lu had a close relationship with this Mingzhu. For a while, Mr. Lu had been quite cold to her...

For some reason, we've been in touch again recently.

But only she knew, for all her outward warmth, that he had never touched her again after that night.

She didn't move, Lu Qian urged her, "Take it!"

Miss Hu could only cautiously accept, her voice soft and sweet when she spoke: "It's Miss Huo. Your Uncle Lu is at the club. Why don't you come play too"

On the phone, Mingzhu's breathing quickened noticeably.

After a long silence, the phone hung up gently.

Lu Qian's hand, about to strike out, was half a second late...

Later, he smiled: "I told you, a child's temper won't last long, but they always call, it's annoying!"

He was smiling, but his eyes were full of ice.to accept the invitation.”Huo Shaoting gently stroked her little head.Mingzhu immediately became sociable: "I'm Mingzhu... well, yes, I'm Lawyer Huo's sister. Just call me Mingzhu! Actually, it was I...
