Young Master Gu, Please Be Gentle

Chapter 1070: Mr Lu Returns (1)

To think that Mr Lu had listed his first company and become a magnate in such a short span of time. It was unbelievable.

“Xuanji, look, it’s Mr Lu!” Huo Yanmei tugged on Lin Xuanji’s sleeve.

Lin Xuanji looked outside the window, the car drove past a bustling commercial building and the news was also broadcast on the billboard.

The image changed to the scene in Los Angeles in the states. Many reporters squeezed together, fighting to get their microphone forward to get some sounds. “Mr Lu, please just say something. Mr Lu, please accept our interview.”

Tens of bodyguards cordoned off the place and a luxurious limousine sped by.

Lin Xuanji fixed her gaze on the limousine. The glistening car body of the limousine exuded a prestigious and enigmatic aura. The windows were tinted and those outside couldn’t see whatever was inside.

She was certain that he was inside.

“Xuanji, your Mr Lu is all over the financial news now. He’s literally a cash making machine, far exceeding your expectations of his abilities.

“He took 200 million dollars from the financial market the other time and everyone was waiting to watch him make a fool out of himself, but look what happened instead. In just two weeks, he’s the newest business magnate already. Now everyone will really have to greet him as Mr Lu when they see him.

“Xuanji, he promised to use a business empire as a betrothal gift. Then based on that, doesn’t that mean that he created a business empire just for you?”

Lin Xuanji could feel herself being touched, her eyes water a little and her heart started pounding.

Who wouldn’t fall for such a capable man?

She had never thought about the kind of man she would eventually fall in love with before, but a man like Lu Jinwen definitely fulfilled all of the conditions she looked for in a man.

It really wasn’t that hard for women to fall for him. They just couldn’t help themselves.

She was no exception, even if she didn’t know it yet.

...

In the bar.

Lin Xuanji and Huo Yanmei stepped inside, a few of their friends were already waiting inside. Everyone ordered cocktails and were engaged in conversation.

A bitter voice burst out, “Sister, you’re here too?”

Lin Xuanji turned around to look, it was Lin Xuanyin and her friends. Their relationship had completely broken down because of Lu Jinwen.

Now that Lu Jinwen’s success story was widely known, Lin Xuanyin felt even more jealous.

“Sister, why are you here drinking? Where’s your fiancé, Mr Lu?” Lin Xuanyin was incredibly sarcastic as she asked.

“Xuanji, Mr Lu is so successful now, I bet many women will be throwing themselves at him now. You have to keep an eye on him.”

“Xuanji, how long has it been since Mr Lu last contacted you? Does he not want you anymore?”

Lin Xuanyin’s friends started being bitter and sarcastic as they were all jealous of Lin Xuanji.

When Lu Jinwen was still a footman, those girls already wanted to buy him over. Now they hated Lin Xuanji so much, wanting to replace her through any means.

At their blatant provocations, Lin Xuanji only raised her brows, smiling sweetly in return. “I think some people really are having sour grapes.”

“You...”

Lin Xuanyin and her friends’ faces darkened. They just made a humph sound and went to the other side of the bar.

“Yanmei, I need to go to the washroom.”

Lin Xuanji got up to go to the toilet.

...

In the bathroom, Lin Xuanji splashed her face with some cold water before returning to her friends outside.

Along the corridor, a man knocked into her. “I’m sorry... Eh, isn’t this the famous second miss of the Lin family?”
