The nickna ‘Iron Lady’ was the most apt description of Han Qianjing.
In a sense, this successful businesswoman who dominated the country was sotis as cold and as hard as a robot.
For example, she did not seem to care about the things that ordinary won paid the most attention to.
She seed indifferent to the delectable dishes that Lu Ming cooked.
In order to ease the sowhat heavy atmosphere, Chu Jinyu turned around and said to Lu Ming, “Brother Lu Ming, let’s go to the courtyard to take a walk to digest our food?”
“Sure.”
Lu Ming stood up and the two of them walked out.
Han Qianjing watched them leave and thought to herself,?Based on their appearance, the two of them are indeed very compatible.
From the business perspective, Lu Ming was indeed promising.
It was as if he was born to do business!
The word ‘genius’ did not seem adequate to describe him.
She had seen countless people and naturally had seen a few geniuses. However, it was her first ti seeing soone so amazing.
But to beco her son-in-law, this was not enough.
They were not well-matched in social class.
It’s aningless to be an outstanding person. What right do you have to single-handedly triumph over established companies that span generations?
But when she was thinking about this, she could not help but sigh.
If Lu Ming’s family background was better, she might change her mind about him.
Moreover, she could tell that Chu Jinyu had a special liking for Lu Ming.?What should I do now?
Han Qianjing propped her chin with one hand and looked away.
Just then Xu Wei walked in with so docunts. When she saw the handso man beside Chu Jinyu, she was stunned for a few seconds. “Chairman Chu, is this your friend?”
As she was not present at the comrcial shoot previously and did not belong to the perfu research and developnt departnt, she had not t Lu Ming.
“Yes, he is my friend—Lu Ming. You should have heard of him.”
Chu Jinyu introduced.
Lu Ming??she thought.
Xu Wei quickly recalled recent rumors in the company that Chairman Chu had made her friend the person in charge of the perfu research and developnt departnt.
This was a position that many people could only dream of attaining, so it caused quite a bit of resentnt.
However, after seeing his outstanding ability, those who were clamoring for his position were silenced. It seed that this person-in-charge, Lu Ming, was very capable.
In particular, Xu Wei had heard that Chairman Chu seed to like him.
She thought of the information she had found and shook her head. Even if this news was true, CEO Han would not let them be together.
“Hello, Mr. Lu. I’m Chairman Chu’s secretary, Xu Wei.”
“Hello.”
Lu Ming nodded and said.
Chu Jinyu asked curiously, “Secretary Xu, why are you here today? Is it sothing urgent?”
“CEO Han asked to deliver so information, so I’ll go in first.”
With that, Xu Wei left quickly.
There was no reaction from Chu Jinyu because she knew from the start that even though Xu Wei was working for her, she was loyal to her mother. In her opinion, the reason why Xu Wei beca her secretary was probably her mother’s doing. It was to monitor her every move.
Han Qianjing would never allow anything to escape her control.
That included her daughter’s life.
At the thought of this, Chu Jinyu took Lu Ming’s arm and said, “If only we can be together forever.”
“Aren’t we together now?”
Lu Ming paused for a mont and continued, “As long as you are unwilling, no one can make you leave.”
Just as he finished speaking, Chu Jinyu’s face turned red like an apple. Although she did not know if Lu Ming had done it intentionally or unintentionally, and whether he had realized it or not, Chu Jinyu felt that these words were an expression of his affection.
He’s too good at talking,?she thought.
She had already beco a ‘love brain,’ ready to abandon everything for love.
As for Xu Wei, she had just walked into the hall when she slled the aroma of food. She could not help but move her throat.?What is going on? I’ve clearly just eaten, so why am I hungry again?
Han Qianjing noticed her expression and her lips curled up. She said, “This al is even better than what the head chef of a three-star Michelin restaurant makes.”
“Did you invite the chef over?”
This was the only possibility that Xu Wei could think of.
“No, of course not.”
Han Qianjing pointed to the yard outside and said, “The chef is that young man.”
“Huh?!”
Xu Wei turned to look at Lu Ming in astonishnt and said in disbelief, “Are you kidding ? Are his culinary skills really that good?”
Of course, the ‘Iron Lady,’ Han Qianjing, was not joking.
She had to admit that this boy was indeed outstanding.
Han Qianjing said frankly, “The taste is first-rate. I think if he participates in the top chef competition, he’ll be on the level of the judges. No, perhaps even higher.”
It was a rather high evaluation, but unfortunately, she was referring to culinary skills only.
No matter how good the food is, he’d only be a chef in this lifeti.
Xu Wei handed the information to her. “I’ve checked everything that you asked to investigate. But the strange thing is that so things can’t be found at all, like…”
It was as if soone had deliberately covered up his tracks.
But why??Xu Wei wondered.
Based on the investigation report, Lu Ming was just an ordinary person. There was no skeleton in the closet.
No matter how Xu Wei thought about it, it was still very strange.
“Like what?”
Han Qianjing asked as she read the information.
After pondering for a mont, Xu Wei answered, “No, I’m probably thinking too much. The information that we can’t find might not have been deleted. Perhaps he really doesn’t have any power or background.”
She did not think that, being an ordinary person, Lu Ming could do such a thing.
He was not a mber of an influential family.
Moreover, there were clues to Lu Ming’s family background. Other than the lack of information in recent years, she had found everything else.
She had never co across half-concealed information about people from influential families. Perhaps the system malfunctioned at the last minute, so it was not displayed. This was also possible.
Han Qianjing did not think too much about it either. She looked at the relationship column and realized sothing interesting.
Lu Yaohua and Lu Ming were actually still father and son. However, Lu Yaohua had fooled around when he was young and abandoned Lu Ming and his first wife in order to cling to the Tang family in Beijing.
So, at the auction today, Lu Ming had deliberately tricked Lu Yaohua.
It was revenge. And it was successful!
Interesting, interesting,?she thought.
As an ordinary person with his background and strengths, it must not have been easy for him to have co so far.
However, Lu Yaohua was blind. He abandoned such a capable elder son and even pushed him to his death. He went down the worst possible path.
Han Qianjing recalled that the third daughter of the Tang family was married to Lu Yaohua. Based on Tang Wenyi’s well-known temper, she would definitely not be willing to see Lu Ming.
That ant that the acrimony between the Lu Corporation and Lu Ming could not be alleviated.
Han Qianjing pondered deeply. She had gathered a lot of information and concluded that Lu Ming was just an ordinary person.
She looked at Xu Wei sharply. “I understand. If there’s any information that I’ve missed recently, tell everything.”
Xu Wei hesitated for a few seconds and said, “Mr. Lu Ming is now working at Missy’s company. He is in charge of the perfu research and developnt departnt.”
She did not explain it too clearly. Han Qianjing looked up and said, “Oh? In other words, he was the one who produced the new lipstick comrcial?”
“Yes.”
Xu Wei could tell that Chu Jinyu liked Lu Ming. Therefore, she did not mind ntioning him in front of Han Qianjing.
After all, she had worked for Chu Jinyu and had developed a good relationship with her over the years.
Han Qianjing put down the information in her hand and made her judgnt.
“Yes, he’s capable, but his family background is not right. My daughter should be looking for a celebrity in the business world, not a stay-at-ho chef.”
Lu Ming was indeed not bad.
But compared to the owner of No. 1 Residence, they were worlds apart!
