Chapter 1107: Responsibility Of The Mistakes
Jiang Yuyan was away from any work in the office, and no one disturbed her. Xiao Min preferred to work with Lu Lijun, to let his boss rest as she was sick. Jiang Yang told him no one was allowed to meet Jiang Yuyan till she gets better, and he had to follow it.
"What do you think the first step Mr. Wen will take?" Noah asked Lu Lijun as he passed him one file.
Lu Lijun looked into it and replied, "This one."
The file had a list of potential steps Mr. Wen could take.
"I thought so too. Taking a step back from this project with Lu Corporation would cause us a great loss. And if we are right, he would partner with this company," Noah pointed towards one file.
Xiao Min, who was working with them, spoke. "Mr. Wen would definitely go with this one because this one has good relations with Lus and Wens."
"And he wouldn't choose the rival one," Noad added.
Lu Lijun nodded. "Going to our rivals after the next day of engagement got canceled will show he is angry with us because I'm the one who broke the engagement. It will oppose the claim that it was a decision from both sides."
"Mr. Wen sure wouldn't let anyone say his daughter was dumped at the last moment...." Xiao Min stopped as Lu Liju glared at him.
What Xiao Min said was the truth, and he didn't wish to let go of any chance to mock this stubborn young master who only troubled his boss.
"He will do everything but while keeping it in check not to let it backfire on his family," said Noah to calm the tension between his two bosses in the office.
"We can let him have this as compensation for the loss we cause to his family."
"It would be a huge loss and will affect the stock price," said Xiao Min.
"We can make double with this, and it won't take time to get back up," Lu Lijun passed one file to Xiao Min. "We don't need to stop or oppose his action as it will only anger him to cause great damage. Let him be calm by causing us few losses like this."
Xiao Min looked into the file. He knew what it was and spoke, "This project wouldn't be easy to get as it mostly goes to western giants."
"We can have something better to offer," said Lu Lijun.
"Are you sure?" Xiao Min asked.
Lu Liju didn't reply while Noah spoke, "We can always try."
"Isn't there any news yet?" Lu Lijun asked.
Just then, Xiao Min's cell phone rang. He received the call and heard the expected.
Xiao Min hung up the call and looked at the two. "It's there, and it's not only one but the two upcoming important projects with us."
What they predicted had happened, and now they needed to work hard to overcome it.
"Don't file anything against them for breaking an agreement," Lu Lijun instructed.
Xiao Min understood the reasons and resumed the work with the other two.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Lu Jinhai entered Lu Lijun's office as Xiao Dong followed him.
The three stood up to greet the chairman, and Lu Jinhai signaled them to sit.
He looked at his son. "I hope you will take responsibility for everything and take care of it the best way."
Lu Lijun nodded.
"Though he is my friend, he won't go easy. Don't expect any help from me either," Lu Jinhai instructed as he looked cold. Of course, he was not happy with what was going on as his friendship was at stake.
"I'll keep in mind," said Lu Lijun.
Lu Jinhai looked at Xiao Min. "Don't mention anything to Yuyan."
Xiao Min nodded lightly with his head lowered.
Xiao Dong passed a tablet to Lu Jinhai as he just got the news about the stock price starting to affect with sudden news a while ago. The news has already started spreading that it was the beginning of conflicts between Wens and Lus.
"Don't let this minor fall in stock affect you. We are much more than this," said Lu Jinhai to his son.
Lu Lijun nodded, and Lu Jinhai left, not saying anything more as he wished his son to take responsibility for his mistakes, regardless of whether he fails or succeeds.
Once Lu Jinhai left, they resumed their work.
"Xiao Min, what kind of person you think Mr. Wen is?" Lu Lijun asked.
"He is one morally strong person who never steps on to any wrong way to get success, and it's hard to get his attention and appreciation so easily. He won't even spare his son for any mistakes, so it's even difficult for others. Most important, he holds grudges for long."
"The last one, I agree with it too," Noah added. "Don't look like he will let it go so easily."
"When he appreciated fourth young master and asked him for his daughter, that means he saw the potential already. But he got disappointed, so it's even worse," another mocking reply came from Xiao Min.
Lu Lijun ignored it, and Xiao Min continued. "Though he is a tough nut to break, he is soft too, but only if he sees something special that would make him let go of it on his own. He loves to test others, especially stubborn and airheaded people." The last line was directed to someone in the room
Noah looked at Xiao Min that how one after another, this man was getting out his hidden bitterness about Lu Lijun.
'Well, not his fault. My stubborn friend has troubled his boss a lot. Such a loyal subject of President Lu,' Noah thought.
Lu Lijun looked at Xiao Min as he knew what Xiao Min was doing. "I love your loyalty, but now get to the important thing."
"If I'm not wrong, he has quite a good number of Lu Corporations shares. Till what extent Mr Wen can go?" Lu Lijun asked.
"I believe he wouldn't use it against us as he won't go that low, considering his friendship with Mr. Chiarman. He wouldn't like to be considered a betrayer in friendship. But if he uses it, that would need truly a serious reason. For example- If the fourth young master had married his daughter and left her with a child," Xiao Min replied.
The other two looked at him—especially Lu Lijun, who could have killed this brazen man just with his glare.
It didn't affect Xiao Min. "We should be grateful that it didn't happen, and the fourth young master got back to his senses early."
Lu Lijun ignored it as he needed to work. There was someone who he cared for, and for her sake, he needed to get everything back to its place before she returns to the office.
"So he wouldn't go that far?" Lu Lijun asked.
"Depends on how fourth young master handles everything. He might forgive if he has changed in heart," Xiao Min replied.
"I think he looks for sincerity and honesty," Noah added.
Lijun understood what kind of a person he must be, and planned what to do.
