C7 Every Penny Is Worth a Lot of Money

For some reason, ever since Lu Liangchen had openly told Zhou Ye about their relationship, they had felt especially awkward together.

"If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving. Take care of yourself."

Lu Liangchen was about to leave with his luggage, but was stopped by Xu Lan.

"I don't want to resign. I want to go back to work, okay? I will definitely not do anything that would harm the Lu family, you can rest assured. "

She timidly said as she looked at Lu Liangchen, afraid that he would object if he was unhappy.

"Xu Lan, is the Lu family unable to support you or something? You have to go out to work."

Hearing Xu Lan's request to go to work, Lu Liangchen's face instantly darkened. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Xu Lan.

"No, I'm just bored at home. Besides, I like this job. If you don't like my relationship with Zhou Ye, I can try my best to keep him away from you in the future."

Seeing that Lu Liangchen's expression wasn't right, Xu Lan braced herself to finish her sentence. Just as expected, Lu Liangchen threw his suitcase on the ground, shocking Xu Lan.

"What the hell are you going to do to allow me to go back to work?"

Xu Lan gave it her all. Compared to staying at home all day to get mouldy, she would rather offend Lu Liangchen. In any case, Lu Liangchen's stay at home was limited.

On the side, Lu Liangchen saw Xu Lan's desperate look and couldn't help but become irritated. This woman was always able to escape his control.

"You'd better remember what you said. If I find out that you've been seeing Zhou Ye too much, I'll lock you up at home."

Lu Liangchen left without even taking his luggage.

Watching him leave, Xu Lan originally wanted to send the luggage out, but Little Zhang quickly came in and took the luggage away.

Although the conversation this time wasn't very pleasant, even to the point of offending Lu Liangchen, Xu Lan was still very happy that she could finally continue working outside.

The next day, when she returned to the company, she didn't go to the ninth floor, but went straight back to the magazine section.

Zhou An was so excited that he almost hugged Xu Lan when he saw her return. God knows how scared he was when he heard that Xu Lan was about to resign.

"Aiyo, Grandaunt, you're scaring me to death. If you quit and quit, what else would I have to suffer for?"

"Chief, don't say that, or my sister-in-law will get jealous."

Xu Lan teased Zhou An. Everyone laughed when they heard her words. The entire office was filled with laughter.

Seeing that she could continue to work with her colleagues and even joke around with everyone, Xu Lan was extremely satisfied.

Time passed quickly in the company. A few days had passed, but Lu Liangchen had not come back from his business trip, and Xu Lan had not contacted him.

"Xu Lan, I have a meeting with Dong Yijie in the afternoon. We're going to choose the photo we took last time. Come with me."

At noon, Xu Lan was busy with her work for the past few days. Zhou An came over and placed a stack of photos on Xu Lan's table.

Looking at Dong Yijie's coquettish appearance in the photo, Xu Lan felt a chill in her heart. When she thought of the face she had to face again, she rejected it ten thousand times.

But can the boss refuse? No.

When Zhou An and Xu Lan arrived at the rendezvous point, Dong Yijie was already there.

When she saw Xu Lan standing beside Zhou An, her expression immediately turned ugly. She put on her sunglasses and pretended like she didn't see anything.

"You put on airs that is even bigger than us and also want us to wait for you. We are big stars and every point is worth a lot."

Before Zhou An and Xu Lan could sit down, they heard Dong Yijie's assistant say in a weird voice.

Xu Lan raised her head and looked at her, then lowered her head and pretended that she didn't see anything.

"I'm really sorry about that. There's a traffic jam on the way, but Miss Dong doesn't care about vile people. This is the finished product. Take a look at the ones you're satisfied with."

Zhou An smiled apologetically at Dong Yijie. He took the photo from Xu Lan and handed it to Dong Yijie.

However, Dong Yijie didn't pick up the photo, but just stared at it. Xu Lan looked at her provocative expression, took the photo from Zhou An, and threw it in front of them.

Seeing Xu Lan's actions, Zhou An's face was filled with disbelief. He then carefully looked at Dong Yijie, afraid that she would be angered.

However, to his surprise, Dong Yijie didn't get angry at all. She took off her sunglasses and looked at Xu Lan with an innocent and pitiful expression.

"You guys can choose as you please, I can do whatever you want. I'm easy to talk to, as long as you're satisfied."

This time, even Xu Lan was shocked. She raised her head and looked at Dong Yijie with disbelief in her eyes.

However, before she could react, she saw Dong Yijie staring pitifully behind her.

Xu Lan followed Dong Yijie's gaze and saw Lu Liangchen standing not far away, looking at them expressionlessly.

Looking into Lu Liangchen's eyes, Xu Lan quickly turned her head away from him. However, her heart was clogged up when she saw Dong Yijie's infatuated expression.

"CEO Lu, you've returned from a business trip. Please help me look at the photos that we chose today and the imperial court. I don't even know which ones to choose."

Dong Yijie ran over happily and wrapped her hands around Lu Liangchen's arms. The two of them looked like a couple.

Lu Liangchen didn't reject Dong Yijie. He walked over and sat opposite Xu Lan, but Dong Yijie's hand was still on his arm.

Xu Lan restrained herself from looking at them, but she still couldn't help looking at them. When she saw Dong Yijie's hand on Lu Liangchen's arm, she couldn't help but clench her fists.

"Um, CEO Lu, do you think these are suitable?"

Zhou An brought the few hands he had chosen in front of Lu Liangchen.

Lu Liangchen was about to pick up the photo when he heard a burst of laughter. A few people looked over and saw Wang Xue standing there with a mocking expression.

"Aiyo, you just threw the photo to us and you're all clean too. Why did our CEO Lu offer it up with both hands now that he's here? How laughable."

Hearing Wang Xue's words, the expressions on Zhou An and Xu Lan's face instantly changed. However, Dong Yijie, who was standing beside them, looked pitifully at Lu Liangchen, as if she had just been wronged.

Xu Lan finally realized that she had been scammed by someone else. They wanted to let Lu Liangchen see that her attitude wasn't good.

If that was the case, it might also make Lu Liangchen feel like he was the one who bullied her the last time she intentionally picked a fight with him.

Xu Lan's expression turned cold as she stared at Dong Yijie.

Zhou An's complexion was also a bit unsightly. He had clearly been tricked by someone else.

Everyone had different expressions on their faces and were all thinking about their own matters. Only Lu Liangchen shook off Dong Yijie's hands and continued to look at the photo in his hands as if he hadn't heard anything.

Only after a long while did he put down the photo in his hand. He slowly raised his head and looked at Wang Xue who was standing at the side.

"How come I never knew that, as an assistant, you're actually raised like this because of someone else?"

It was just a few simple words, but Lu Liangchen's words were extremely oppressive. For a moment, Wang Xue's face turned deathly pale.

"I think you can f * * k off now, don't embarrass Chasing Wind anymore."

With that, he picked up the photo in his hand and threw it towards Wang Xue.

The lady who had been in an aggressive mood a moment ago was so scared that she didn't even dare to move. Tears streamed down her face.

Everyone was shocked by the scene in front of them, especially Dong Yijie. She had not expected Lu Liangchen to be so decisive and not give her any face at all.

"Choose your own photos and look at the ones that are pleasing to the eye. You actually want to interview someone with such a small matter? I really don't know what's going on with Zhou Ye's subordinates."

After saying that, Lu Liangchen left without even looking at the photo. Zhou An picked up the photo on the ground. He didn't look at Dong Yijie's ugly expression at all as he quickly left with Xu Lan.

On the way back, Zhou An still had lingering fear in his heart as he followed Lu Liangchen. Xu Lan's mind had already been blown away.

This time, it was not because Lu Liangchen wanted to avenge him, but Dong Yijie was an artiste in Chasing Wind Chasing. Lu Liangchen was not afraid to offend his artiste by doing this.

However, this was the second time that Lu Liangchen had done this for his own sake. No matter what, Xu Lan was somewhat touched. It was as if something had touched her heart.
