“This plan is well done, but the Chu family also has its own bargaining chips. We can’t afford to be complacent. Continue gathering relevant information, and send the complete plan to my email by next Monday.”

In the office, Lu Si gently closed the documents in front of him and rubbed his sore temples wearily.

Jiang He advised, “Master Si, you should go home and rest early today. You’ve been overwhelmed with work lately, and your health may not be able to handle it.”

“I’m not that fragile,” Lu Si didn’t pay much attention to this health issue.

Being in the position of a CEO, he had to do what was expected of him in that role.

Compared to his responsibilities, his own health seemed insignificant.

But as a secretary, Jiang He had to remind him at the right time. “The physical examination arranged by your grandfather is this weekend, and I’ll free up half a day for you to go to the hospital for a checkup. It’s also your grandfather’s wish.”

He knew that if he mentioned Lu Si’s grandfather, Lu Si would definitely not refuse.

Indeed, his willful Master Si agreed to it with ease, and then casually asked, “The Lin family’s people should have arrived in Lin City, right? Has Mei Shu met with them yet?”

“Not yet,” Jiang He shook his head.

Lu Si asked in a strange tone, “Then what did she do after school today?”

Jiang He hesitated for a moment but decided to be honest. “Miss Mei Shu went for bubble tea with Master Lu Yan after school.”

In an instant, Lu Si’s body tensed up. “Just the two of them?”

“Another female student was with them, the same classmate who dined with them last time,” Jiang He carefully reminded him. “Master Lu Yan is your nephew, Master Si.”

Lu Si gave him a sidelong glance, speaking in a cold tone. “If it weren’t for the fact that this brat is my relative, do you think I could tolerate him until now?” Jiang He detected his displeasure and tried to comfort him. “Master Si, Mrs. Lu is very determined about her stance on Mei Shu. She only wants to drive Miss Mei Shu away. It seems that Master Lu Yan won’t go against the family because of her.”

“A fledgling little sparrow in the nest, what does he have to oppose the family with?” Lu Si sneered. “Forget it, let’s not worry about him. Help me investigate the Zhou family, especially the background of Zhou Li. She wants to deceive her way into the Lu family? Make her past exposed to my sister-in-law.” “Understood.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang He immediately gathered information about the Zhou family, particularly Zhou Li’s background. He discreetly conveyed it to Mrs. Lu through someone else.

“This young lady is Zhou Li, right? She looks quite pretty. No wonder you like her so much.”

Mrs. Sun said with a smile as she accepted the tea cup handed by Zhou Li, casually playing a card. “When are you two planning to get engaged?”

Mrs. Lu smiled and patted Zhou Li’s hand. “There’s no rush for that. I think we should let the two kids develop their feelings slowly. Once they graduate, it will be a perfect time for them to get engaged, won’t it?”

“Wow, you’re so lucky!” Mrs. Sun said with a grin, patting Zhou Li’s hand. “Young ladies who want to marry into the Lu family from outside Lin City have lined up from Lincity to overseas. When news of your engagement spreads, you might have a lot of girls envious of you!”

Zhou Li felt delighted to hear this, but she maintained an anxious appearance. “I don’t dare to hope for that. You can’t force matters of the heart. But 1 really like Aunt Qin. Even if I don’t end up with Aunt Qin, I’m willing to be Aunt’s goddaughter and always be respectful to Uncle and Aunt.”

“Look at how sweet this girl is!” Mrs. Sun praised Zhou Li endlessly.

Mrs. Lu was satisfied with Zhou Li’s response and smiled as she patted Zhou Li’s hand. “All right, we’ll play cards here. You can go study with Ah Yan in the study. Don’t worry about us.”

“Then 1’11 go upstairs, Aunt. If you need anything, just call me,” Zhou Li said sincerely. She made sure the air conditioning was set, and she prepared tea and snacks before departing confidently.

Once she left, Mrs. Sun’s expression changed immediately. She turned to Mrs. Lu and said, “I heard something recently, and I’m not sure if I should tell you.” Mrs. Lu found it strange that Mrs. Sun had such a serious look, so she asked curiously, “What is it?”

Mrs. Sun hesitated before saying, “1 didn’t take it seriously at first. I only heard it from my daughter. But now that I see how much you like Zhou Li, I feel obliged to tell you everything I know.”

“Go on.”

Although the Sun family was not as wealthy as the Lu family, Mrs. Sun’s husband was a high-ranking official. Mrs. Lu still respected her and didn’t dare to disregard her words.

Seeing Mrs. Lu’s attentive look, Mrs. Sun suddenly felt the urge to confide, and she spoke in a lowered voice, “1 heard that Zhou Li, after moving to Hai City, had a close relationship with a wealthy young man from Hai City, Mr. Jin. They seemed to be dating!”

As soon as these words were spoken, Mrs. Lu’s complexion changed. “It can’t be true. At that time, Zhou Li was just an inexperienced young girl.. How could she have that kind of relationship with a young man? There must be some mistake!”
