Chapter 37 The Lu Family from Beijing

“What’s going on?” Si Jingyun closed the documents in front of him and made a call.

Lu Jinqi received his call and laughed. She raised her hand to rub the boy’s hair and told him the whole story in a concise manner.

When Si Jingyun heard this, a hint of a smile unconsciously appeared in his eyes.

“I didn’t expect you to have such a charming side.”

He propped his head up and said with a smile.

Lu Jinqi lazily led the boy to the car. Hearing what he said, a smile appeared.

“There’s still a lot that you don’t know about

me.”

Si Jingyun’s lips curled up and he smiled softly. “Are there other things I should know about

you?”

Lu Jinqi’s footsteps faltered and her beautiful eyes curved up. She said playfully, “Where are you?” After that, the corners of her lips curled up as she continued, “Are you in the company right now?”

Si Jingyun stood up lazily, standing in front of the window, “Why, do you want to come over?” Si Jingyun quickly added, “I’ll have Qi Ye wait for you downstairs.” Lu Jingi softly agreed, lowering her head to look at the boy. She did not get along with children.

After hanging up, Lu Jinqi was about to bring the boy into the car when suddenly, a man walked over. “Young master…” the man had just opened his mouth when he saw the cold look in the boy’s eyes. He instantly shut his mouth.

Lu Jinqi looked at him with interest. Seeing this, she raised her eyebrows slightly.

It seemed that this little guy was more than meets the eye.

The boy swept his gaze across his surroundings coldly, exuding a warning. The rest of them slowly stopped in their tracks. They did not know what to do. If the young master left with someone, how were they going to explain themselves?

The boy did not care what they were thinking. He raised his head and smiled cutely. “Pretty lady, let’s go.”

Lu Jinqi looked at him, unfazed. Without saying anything, she drove away with him.

The few men stayed where they were and watched the car drive further and further away. Their faces were filled with bitterness.

Banyan City. “CEO Song, something bad has happened. Our first project has gone wrong.” In the Song corporation building, a man with glasses spoke up. He held something in his hand and hurriedly pushed open the chairman’s office anxiously when he spoke.

When Song Zhilin heard this, he slammed the table and stood up. He frowned and said in a deep voice, “What did you say?”

The man met his gaze and shrunk his neck. He braced himself and said, “Ten minutes ago, CEO Li’s side reported something. He took away the funding. This means…” “In other words, the project our two families are working on has been scrapped. At the same time, we might face the risk of being investigated,” Song Zhilin’s face turned pale at the thought of this. After all, he had done a lot of tax evasion in the past few years. If he were to be investigated, everything would be over for him.

However, what did he do to who to offend CEO Li for his funds to be taken away without warning

Song Zhilin thought for a while, and a possibility flashed through his mind. When he finally thought of Lu Jinqi, his expression changed, and he shook his head.

It could not be her. She had no connections with CEO Li, and she did not even have the ability to do so.

The man saw the change in his expression, and he carefully said, “CEO Song, what should we do now?”

Hearing his voice, Song Zhilin immediately snapped back to his senses. After thinking for a moment, he said, “Get out.”

The man glanced at him before leaving quietly. After he left, Song Zhilin immediately made a phone call. “Have you hidden the things I’ve given you?” “Yes, no one will know where they are,” the person on the other end answered affirmatively.

Only after receiving a positive reply did Song Zhilin’s heart relax. However, when he thought about the one billion dollars he had invested in, his face quickly turned sour.

When Lu Jinqi reached Si Corporation with the little boy, Qi Ye was already waiting there.

When he saw the two of them, Qi Ye smiled and walked forward. “Ms Lu.”

Lu jinqi replied with a faint nod and followed behind him.

When the receptionist saw the CEO’s personal assistant being so respectful, her eyes widened. She could not help but look at Lu Jinqi curiously. When she looked at her, her breathing slowed down a lot. The girl had a fair and delicate face, beautiful eyes, and red lips. She looked very relaxed, and she held onto a child’s hand.

She only came back to her senses when the three of them walked into the elevator. ‘Could that be the CEO’s girlfriend? She looks very pretty.’

“Master Jing, I’ll be heading down first,” Qi Ye said with a smile.

Si Jingyun nodded, but his gaze was fixed on the two people beside him. Slowly, he said, “Jinny, is this the child you picked up?”

Lu Jinqi casually sat down on the sofa, her tone was filled with indifference. “Yeah, what do you think? He’s not bad, isn’t he?”

Si Jingyun did not reply, he just looked at the boy with an unreadable gaze. ‘Jinny picked someone familiar.’

His tone was indifferent when he spoke up. “Little brat, you’ve become bolder recently.”

The boy did not expect Lu Jinqi to know Si Jingyun. He could not help but be stunned when he heard the older man speak up. She was just a pretty lady he found.

“Hello, long time no see,” The boy climbed onto the sofa and said with a smile.

Lu Jinqi looked at the two of them and raised her eyebrows. “You two know each other?”

Before Si Jingyun could say anything, the boy could not wait to introduce himself.

“Pretty lady, my name is Lu Zimo. You can also call me Momo.” Lu Jinqi’s gaze deepened. His surname was Lu. She did not think that she and Lu were fated to be together. Of all the people she picked up on the streets, he had to be named Lu.

Thinking back to those people with the surname Lu in her previous life, Lu Jinqi felt a little irritated, but her expression did not change.

“The Lu family from Beijing.”

Lu Jingi’s voice was faint and filled with affirmation.

Si Jingyun had been watching her the entire time. Sensing that something was wrong with her mood, he walked over and patted her head.

“Hey, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing.”

Lu Jinqi narrowed her eyes and shook her head.

“Pretty lady, what about you? What’s your name?” Lu Zimo came over and asked with his googly eyes. “Lu Jinni.”

After she said that.

Lu Zimo smiled happily. He had the same surname as this pretty lady. Seeing this, Si Jingyun made a call.

“Where’s Lu Zimo?” Lu Yuchen got out of the car and looked around. Seeing that there was no one around, he asked coldly.

A few men pushed and shoved each other. The last man with decent looks walked up and said softly, “The young master left with someone.”

Hearing this, Lu Yuchen’s eyebrows almost reached his hairline. Looking at their expressions, he knew that they could not stop the child from leaving.

“Who did he go with? Why didn’t you follow him?”

The man thought for a moment before his face turned red. “He went with a very good-looking girl. Young master didn’t allow us to follow suit.”

Lu Yuchen pressed his forehead, suppressing the anger in his heart. That brat really deserved to be taught a lesson. Suddenly, his phone rang. When he saw the caller, surprise flashed across his eyes. “Master Jing.”

Si Jingyun glanced at the boy who was pestering Lu Jinqi and said coldly, “Come and take your brat back.”

When he said that, Lu Zimo pouted. He puffed up his chubby face and called out, “I don’t want to go back. I want to hang out with this pretty lady.”

His voice traveled from the phone to Lu Yuchen’s ears. He could not help but wonder who the pretty lady he was referring to was.

“I’ll be right there,” he said before hanging up.

Lu Jinqi lowered her eyes and stood up. “I have something to do. I’ll leave him to you.” Si Jingyun watched her leave and could not help but think. Ever since Jinny heard the little devil speak, her mood started to change.

“Devil child, do you know who she is?”
