Chapter 25: Chapter 25: How Great President Lu Is
Zhao Gang and Long Autian looked towards Lu Chengwen.
Lu Chengwen hurried over and, seeing Long Autian's outfit, he couldn't help but give a thumbs-up inwardly, exclaiming in admiration.
Professional! So damn professional!
Look at him, dressed in all-street stall goods, driving a beat-up tractor, his shoes showing his toes, now that's the state and aura of a great male lead!
In the beginning, it has to be like this, you have to be as inconspicuous as possible, so that all the snobs and normal people in society pinch their noses when they see you, using all sorts of harsh words to provoke you!
Then, just when it's crucial, you reveal your skills, shock everyone, and leave behind a lengthy discourse full of maternal affection, nagging, enthusiasm, and provocation.
Then the wealthy and noble families will look at you with admiration, and the beautiful women will secretly admire you.
The world begins to revolve around you alone...
Ah, envy.
Comparisons are odious.
Looking at myself again, it's simply unbearable.
Dressed in expensive suits tailored by professional designers; handmade high-end leather shoes; a limited edition watch worth over four million... Sitting in a business car worth over two million, accompanied by a loyal lackey and a seductive secretary...
Compared to him, what am I?
Besides all this!
What else do I have ?!
What am I, still? What!?
Zhao Gang said, "Mr. Lu, don't worry, I'll take care of him..."
"Get lost!"
Lu Chengwen glared at him, "Apologize to Brother Autian!"
"Huh? Mr. Lu, I... I have to apologize to this dog..."
"Shut up!"
Lu Chengwen kicked him in the butt and dragged Zhao Gang along, "Apologize!"
Zhao Gang looked aggrieved, "I'm sorry."
Lu Chengwen quickly smiled and said, "Brother Autian, unexpectedly ran into a misunderstanding just now, it was our fault, please go ahead, please go ahead..."
As Lu Chengwen spoke, he felt something was amiss!
He sniffed and suddenly sucked in sharply... Huh!
Lu Chengwen took a deep inhale, feeling a bit overwhelmed.
Dizzy, took a step back, and Zhao Gang quickly supported him.
"Mr. Lu, are you okay? I suspected this guy fell into a dung pit..."
"Get lost! This is... perfume."
"Huh? Perf... Perfume?"
Lu Chengwen regained some composure and looked at Long Autian, "Brother Autian, let me advise you, to change your brand of perfume, this scent is too overpowering."
Long Autian pondered: I've been washed by heavy rain for so long, and there's still a scent? Could it be that I've gotten used to this scent and don't notice it? No, I can't face girls like this, I need to tidy myself up a bit.
Blame it on that heavy rain, making me look so miserable!
By the way, why isn't there rain in the city?
At this moment, Jiang Shihan accidentally pressed a button on the multimedia panel in the back seat, and the broadcast sounded:
"Today, our city witnessed a phenomenon. All areas of the city have clear skies except for one area where there's continuous heavy rain. Moreover, the movement trajectory of this dark cloud is quite interesting, it actually moved from the suburbs along the road to the city center before dissipating, its speed is like that of a tractor, just pausing briefly near a certain sewage tank... Many citizens have taken photos and videos, recording this phenomenon..."
Everyone looked at Long Autian.
Long Autian's mouth twitched, "Really... interesting, haha, such a peculiar cloud, isn't it strange?"
Lu Chengwen, seeing him completely soaked, didn't dare to expose him, "Oh, strange... indeed, it is. How could there be such clouds, very strange."
Jiang Shihan turned off the broadcast, came down, and seeing Long Autian, was very surprised, "Brother Autian?"
"Shihan." Long Autian saw Jiang Shihan and instantly smiled.
So good-looking.
My sister Shihan is truly beautiful, and her temperament is unique, making people want to... hehe.
Long Autian said, "Yesterday... the day before yesterday, I checked some ancient books, and I have some understanding of your mother's illness. I came especially today to find you, to treat your mother."
Jiang Shihan felt warmth in her heart.
A few days ago, in a rush, she squeezed onto the subway and encountered a pervert. Fortunately, he helped her.
He's the first man in the world willing to stand up for her.
Although he's not handsome, his dress is very ordinary.
But am I not also an insignificant person? A small role who can only get a high salary by following Mr. Lu and playing on the edge of legality?
Brother Autian is brave, smart, wise, decisive, and good at martial arts.
Being able to be his good friend truly makes me feel the warmth I've been missing for a long time, the care and protection I've never experienced before, and the happiness of having a brother to rely on.
Lu Chengwen looked.
[Great! This is perfect! The plot is going smoothly, everything's fine on my end!]
[Next, let Long Autian take Shihan to treat her mother's illness, and then Shihan can follow him from now on, and I can hand over the job. ]
[Phew! It's been three days, finally, there's some progress. Don't rush, stay calm, control the rhythm well, and let these two naturally pair up.]
Jiang Shihan was stunned.
What is Mr. Lu thinking?
Why does he always want Brother Autian to treat my mother? How does he know that Brother Autian is skilled in medicine?
Why does he know so much, so many things I don't know?
No!
The real, first one to take care of me, to protect me, to care for me, is actually my boss, Mr. Lu!
It was he who hired me without any good qualifications.
He said, that because I'm pretty, sexy, and have long legs, so he hired me.
But now thinking back, does he lack a girl who's good-looking, sexy, and has long legs by his side? He is deliberately giving me opportunities, letting me have the chance to earn a generous salary to support my mother!
He requires me to wear stockings and skirts every day, saying it's for visual enjoyment.
Now thinking about it, he's actually secretly encouraging me! He knows I'm insecure, so he lets me show off my figure and charm, wanting me to believe in myself, appreciate myself, and develop my natural advantages!
He said I have a slave mentality, so he always bullies me.
Now thinking about it, he's obviously training me, tempering my resilience, strength, independence, and self-improvement! He hopes I can withstand the pressures of the workplace, and the harassment of the boss, live my own life, and live freely!
He knew from the beginning that I endured all this for my mother!
He didn't say it explicitly, didn't act as a lofty benefactor but deliberately bullied me, harassed me
, and almost made me collapse.
He just wants me to feel that everything I get is earned by myself, not given by him!
He just wants me to think he's a bad guy, so that one day when I have other choices, I can leave him without any guilt and pursue my future.
What a great personality, President Lu!
What a noble soul, President Lu!
What a man worthy of admiration, my President Lu!
Lu Chengwen looked at Jiang Shihan excited and moved, tears already welling up in his eyes, and nodded approvingly.
Alright, it's time.
Lu Chengwen said, "Since that's the case, Shihan, you should go back with Brother Aotian. I wish your mother a speedy recovery. Oh, and I see Brother Aotian as a remarkable talent, destined to be exceptional among men. You might as well quit your job and follow him on his adventures. Since your mother's illness is better now, your financial pressure isn't that great anymore. I'll have the finance department pay you two years' salary. It should be enough for you."
Long Aotian scratched his head: Damn! Is this kid so easy to talk to?
I... I'm still holding back. If you mess with me, I'll deal with you. You're just too... reasonable, aren't you?
It's not like the rumors from the outside world!
Long Aotian smiled and said, "Mr. Lu, you truly understand righteousness today."
"That's right, that's right, learning from Brother Long."
Long Aotian looked at Jiang Shihan. "Shihan, since that's the case, let's go back as soon as possible to treat your mother."
Jiang Shihan smiled faintly, "Brother Aotian, thank you for your kindness. I understand. My mother's illness, Mr. Xu has promised to treat, and she will undergo surgery next week. As for my job..."
Jiang Shihan looked gratefully at Lu Chengwen. "I am deeply indebted to President Lu and have no way to repay his kindness. I will not leave President Lu, nor will I leave Great Saint Group. I will follow President Lu faithfully, willing to endure any hardship!"
Lu Chengwen felt... Are you guys conspiring to mess with me?
Is there something wrong with this plot wave I'm pushing? Is there a problem?
Follow the storyline!
I'm all humble and risking getting slapped to death by his whims, clarifying the position for your sweet future life, and you're still not going along?
What's with "willing to endure any hardship"? Are you showing off?
Long Aotian was obviously surprised too.
"Shihan, do you not trust my medical skills? Forgive me for being blunt, but in the whole Snow Country, except for me, no one can cure your mother's illness."
Jiang Shihan smiled and shook her head, "Mr. Xu is a master in medicine, and their family has abundant medical resources. She promised to perform surgery on my mother, so there should be no problem. Thank you, Brother Aotian, for your concern."
Lu Chengwen rubbed his temple painfully, lifted his head, and said, "How about this, can we give it a try first? You go back with Brother Aotian first, if he can cure Auntie's illness easily, then we don't need that Xu Xuejiao girl. Okay?"
"I'd rather wait until next week. I've already discussed it with my mother. If things don't work out with Miss Xu, then I'll trouble Brother Aotian."
Lu Chengwen immediately exploded, "If I ask you to go, you go! So many words! What a great opportunity, everyone is here, I've agreed, and I'm even giving you money. He'll cure your mother's illness, and he'll surely treat you well in the future. Your position in his harem group isn't low either, what else do you want?!"
"Harem... harem group?"
Lu Chengwen clenched his fist in front of his mouth.
Excited.
He let out what he shouldn't have said.
Long Aotian said, "Mr. Lu, you can eat messily, but don't speak carelessly. Shihan and I are just friends. I treat her like my sister."
"I know, I know, I... got carried away, I'm sorry."
Jiang Shihan was unresponsive!
Lu Chengwen gritted his teeth and made a decision.
"Jiang Shihan, you're fired."
Jiang Shihan didn't expect it to be like this.
"Why?"
Lu Chengwen smiled, "No reason, just go with Brother Aotian."
Jiang Shihan grabbed Lu Chengwen's hand, "Mr. Lu, I beg you, don't fire me, my mother needs money for surgery, money for medicine, I can't afford to lose my job..."
"I'll cover your mother's surgery fees and her medicine expenses, as long as you resign."
At this moment, a voice rang out loudly, "She doesn't need to resign."
Lu Chengwen turned angrily, "Who's butting in? Come here if you dare!"
But when he saw the person who spoke, Lu Chengwen instantly flinched.
