Normally, this should be the most embarrassing moment for Lu Chengwen.

Not only was he rejected by someone he was engaged to, but he also received an order to leave.

If it were Lu Chengwen from before, he would either put on a thick skin and say something nice or if he got angry, he would slam the door and make threats, then thoroughly give the cold shoulder.

But today's Lu Chengwen is not the same as before.

Today's Lu Chengwen neither lacks shame nor flies into a rage.

Today's Lu Chengwen is absolutely pragmatic.

He quickly got up and bowed to each person: "Alright alright, you guys are busy, I have something to do at home, so I'll leave first, don't bother sending me off, oh, no one planned to send me off, it's okay it's okay..."

Leng Qingqiu stood up directly and angrily shouted, "Stop!"

Lu Chengwen was already at the door, crying: "What else do you want?"

Leng Qingqiu was almost driven to tears.

Lu Chengwen looked around and suddenly felt a little sorry for Leng Qingqiu.

[This kid is quite pitiful. Grandma doesn't care for her, uncle doesn't love her, and her biological father treats her like a cash cow. Now Long Aotian has made it clear that he wants to swallow the Leng family, she is left alone and destined to be a pawn in Long Aotian's plan.]

[I'm leaving, and she'll have to face her scheming father and the conniving Long Aotian by herself.]

[But I can't do anything about it. This is the matter between your female lead and male lead, I can't interfere as a minor villain!]

Leng Qingqiu's hands were trembling, tears uncontrollably filling her eyes as she stared straight at Lu Chengwen.

Lu Chengwen felt both guilty and helpless, "I... really have something to do."

Xu Xuejiao also heard Lu Chengwen's inner thoughts, looking displeased.

"Hey, come on, let's go. They've made it clear they want you to leave, why are you lingering here?"

Leng Qingqiu's lips quivered with grievances as she pleaded softly, "Chengwen... help me."

She felt deeply ashamed.

What right did she have to say such words?

Has she ever treated him kindly during these three years?

No.

Has she ever given him a chance despite his devoted efforts for three years?

No.

Has she ever said anything nice to him despite his three years of humble pleading?

Even more so, no.

Now that she's in trouble, caught between her father and Long Aotian, she shamelessly begs for his help.

This is truly a bolt from the blue!

Why should he offend her father and Long Aotian, two major adversaries, for her sake?

It makes no sense.

But Lu Chengwen is the last straw that Leng Qingqiu can grasp.

Once the five billion funds are injected, Long Tianhao will immediately start adjusting, forcing Leng Qingqiu out and letting Long Aotian take over as the president of Qianfeng Group.

Even if Leng Qingqiu has a hundred billion in cash on hand, the fate of Qianfeng Group is completely irrelevant to her.

Lu Chengwen was deeply shaken.

Inner turmoil raged within him.

According to his initial thoughts, he absolutely wanted to help Leng Qingqiu at this moment.

Just because of his deep feelings for Leng Qingqiu, just because of her pitiful and helpless appearance, his inner impulse was almost uncontrollable.

But the opponent is Long Aotian!

The protagonist!

He's no match for him no matter what!

He can only be a stepping stone for him.

[Be rational!]

[Lu Chengwen, you must be rational, impulsive actions will kill you.]

[Their story will continue after you die, your impulsiveness and hot blood are meaningless.]

Long Aotian laughed, "Lu, are you leaving or not? Make a statement! Standing at the door without saying a word, what does that mean?"

Leng Tianhao also smiled, "Chengwen, go back. Our family matters will be handled by us. Besides, I don't believe you have any cash to help me buy land. That shantytown renovation project, hahaha, I wish you a fortune. If you don't bankrupt your family fortune, my old man will come to congratulate you, hahaha..."

Long Aotian walked up to Lu Chengwen and leaned close to his ear, "I know what you're thinking. I've got Qianfeng Group under control, and Leng Qingqiu will sooner or later be my plaything in bed. As for you... just wait. Next, it's your turn, Lu family."

Lu Chengwen's fists clenched slowly.

At this moment, he was staring back at Long Aotian.

Long Aotian smirked arrogantly, while Lu Chengwen struggled to suppress his anger, his gaze turning fierce.

"Oh? Not bad eyes." Long Aotian chuckled, "With the blessing of your mental disorder, the Lu family will go bankrupt faster than I expected. Hehe, I'm ready to take over Dasheng Group. As for you and your family, I'll make you carry huge debts that you can't repay in your lifetime, and you'll end up begging on the streets... by then, I'll have some change ready for you on the roadside."

At this moment, another head leaned over.

Xu Xuejiao widened her beautiful eyes, "What are you two big men whispering about here?"

Long Aotian was startled, leaned back, and quickly smiled, "Oh, Miss Xu Xuejiao. You'd better not hang out with this waste second-generation rich kid. He's only here because of his parents, he's not capable on his own. Be careful he doesn't drag your Xu family down."

Xu Xuejiao pouted, "I'm also a waste second-generation rich kid relying on my parents, so, birds of a feather flock together."

"Of course, you're different, you're a divine doctor, young and promising..."

Lu Chengwen suddenly spoke up, "Long Aotian, where's your financial group? Can I have a look?"

Long Aotian glanced at his watch, "We'll meet at the café in a while, why? Do you also want to see?"

"Exactly."

Long Aotian narrowed his eyes, "Kid, are you determined to oppose me?"

"No." Lu Chengwen said, "I just want to see how capable you really are, how big your mouth is, whether you can swallow the four major families of Xuecheng."

Leng Qingqiu, who had been controlling her emotions, burst into tears directly.

This man...

She has never been good to him, and she can even say it's been quite terrible.

But he has helped her time and time again, selflessly, without considering the consequences.

When everyone else abandoned her, he didn't.

He obviously doesn't like me anymore, why would he still help me?

Leng Qingqiu walked up to Lu Chengwen and asked, "Why? Didn't you say you don't like me anymore? Why are you willing to help me?"

Lu Chengwen looked at her,

suddenly smiled, and reached out to wipe her tears away:

"Because you're crying. Whoever dares to make my goddess cry, I'll make them regret it."

Leng Qingqiu couldn't help but laugh through her tears and hugged Lu Chengwen directly.

This hug made Lu Chengwen's mind clear up a bit.

"Hey hey hey!? Don't, don't, don't... it's not that serious, I'm just pretending to be cool, don't be too touched, I'm scared..."

...

Lu Chengwen was regretful all the way.

[Lu Chengwen, have you lost your mind!?]

[She cries, so what!? Why are you feeling sorry for her!?]

【Now, it's time to confront Long Autian directly. Isn't this seeking death?】

Leng Qingqiu sat beside Lu Chengwen, and couldn't help but chuckle: "Regretting it?"

"Huh? N-no, I'm not."

"Why are you always so afraid of Long Autian?"

Lu Chengwen looked at Leng Qingqiu: "The fortune teller said he's destined to be against me."

"You still believe in those things?"

Xu Xuejiao complained with a pout: "Lu Chengwen, didn't you say you don't like Leng Qingqiu anymore and like me? What's going on now?"

Lu Chengwen thought, why are you everywhere?

He looked seriously at Xu Xuejiao: "I don't like Leng Qingqiu anymore, but I definitely didn't say I like you!"

"Then why do you leer at me when I wear a uniform?"

"I'd leer at any pretty girl in a uniform! I could ogle at girls on my phone all night long, any issues with that?"

"Would those girls on your phone dance in front of you in uniforms?"

Lu Chengwen widened his eyes: "Sis, I'm wealthy! I can have as many of those girls as I want!"

"You... You're comparing me to them?"

"Is that not allowed?!"

Xu Xuejiao was infuriated, wishing she could kick Lu Chengwen to death.

Leng Qingqiu sneered: "Xu Xuejiao, didn't you always dislike Brother Chengwen? What's up lately? Are you starting to cling to my fiancé?"

"Leng Qingqiu, don't be so familiar. Your dad said to cancel the engagement. Brother Chengwen is single now, everyone has a chance."

Leng Qingqiu was livid: "He pursued me for three years! What do you have to compare with me?"

Xu Xuejiao said, "I can wear a uniform, he likes my butt. He really likes girls in uniforms, right, Brother Chengwen?"

Lu Chengwen awkwardly couldn't find words to respond: "Y-you... could you watch your words?"

"Is my uniform today nice?"

"Is that the point?"

"Nonsense, Brother Chengwen likes stockings. Every time I wear stockings, he drools. Isn't that right, Brother Chengwen?"

Lu Chengwen said, "Qingqiu, why are you like this? Be calm..."

Xu Xuejiao continued, "I've never had a boyfriend before, still a virgin. Brother Chengwen likes innocent big-breasted lolitas, right, Brother Chengwen?"

Lu Chengwen felt like banging his head: "Could you... could you not speak so loudly..."

Leng Qingqiu said, "Coincidentally, I've been with him for these years and still a virgin. And you didn't know, little girl, cuteness is worthless in front of sexiness. Brother Chengwen has seen and tasted everything, your charm can only last for a while, isn't that right, Brother Chengwen?"

Lu Chengwen covered his face: "Stop it, can you both maintain some dignity?"

Xu Xuejiao said, "Let me tell you, don't be fooled by Brother Chengwen's appearance, in fact, he's a pervert, he likes playing all sorts of role-playing games. I can be both sweet and salty, he even said I'm highly playable and can be done in countless ways, isn't that right, Brother Chengwen?"

Lu Chengwen looked at her in surprise: "Sis, when did I say that!?"

Leng Qingqiu chuckled, "Some games require a pair of long legs to play properly, he said my legs can be played with for a lifetime..."

Lu Chengwen went crazy: "Stop the car, stop it! I want to get off, I want to die!"

The car stopped, and the driver sweating profusely, looked back at Lu Chengwen, almost wanting to kick him to death.

The two girls got out of the car, still sulking, ignoring each other.

Lu Chengwen had just stepped forward to climb the steps when Xu Xuejiao hooked her arm around Lu Chengwen's and defiantly glanced at Leng Qingqiu: "Hmph."

Leng Qingqiu hooked her arm around Lu Chengwen's other arm, and coldly hummed: "Hmph."

Lu Chengwen felt like he was being escorted by two police officers, nervously saying: "Can't you two stop this? Let go of me, okay? I was wrong! From now on, I won't meddle in your business, let's have a drink and swear never to associate with each other again!"

The two girls shouted together: "She drinks first!"

Over there, Long Autian also got out of the car, seeing this scene, his face directly turned green.

Lu Chengwen felt his hair standing on end.

【No! This is really seeking death, I've got to run!】

Lu Chengwen turned around to run, but as soon as he turned, he almost collided with a big dark figure.

Both of them froze, the other party was very surprised, pointing at Lu Chengwen: "Mr... Mr. Lu!?"

Lu Chengwen widened his eyes.

【It's over! Iron Lump Wang!】

Lu Chengwen turned his head and saw Long Autian.

【Long Autian in front, Iron Lump Wang behind!】

【I'm done for!】
