"Dinner is ready."
Lu Chen told Lin Yijun as he brought the food out.
He brought Qiqi out for the entire day to have fun. Despite having eaten outside with her, he still came back in time to make dinner for Lin Yijun.
"I don't feel like eating. I feel stuffed with anger once I see you," Lin Yijun said unhappily.
Lu Chen frowned. He had constantly been arguing with Lin Yijun for the past few days. Now, he was also too lazy to continue arguing with her.
"Can it be that you want me to feed you?" Lu Chen jokingly said as he wanted to calm her down.
"The only ability you have left is feeding girls. Lu Chen, can't you be more like a man and be more successful?" Lin Yijun looked at Lu Chen in disdain.
"What happened?" Lu Chen frowned. He felt that Lin Yijun must have faced something unhappy today. Otherwise under normal circumstances, she would not get angry for no reason.
Lin Yijun angrily said, "It's all your fault. Because you offended Fan Ming, he asked me to follow him to meet a client over the past few days. If I couldn't close the deal, he would evoke my bonuses for this month."
Lu Chen asked, "The client made things difficult for you?"
Lin Yijun furiously said, "It's way past making things difficult for me. He even asked me to follow him to a hotel.."
Upon hearing that, Lu Chen was also extremely furious. He suppressed his anger and, in a deep voice, asked, "Who is he? I can help you to resolve this matter and close the sale."
"You can help me to resolve this?" Lin Yijun gave a cold stare at Lu Chen and scorned. "Take a look at yourself. Does it look like you have any skills? You think that by going to beat him up, things would be resolved? Lu Chen, the biggest help you can give me would be to go and look for a job. Also, you better eliminate the idea from your mind. If you mess around and result in me losing this client, I will not let things go so easily."
Lu Chen sneered. "Don't tell me you actually want to have sex with him?"
"You!" Lin Yijun angrily pointed at Lu Chen and snapped. "Lu Chen, if you are doubting me even for such matters, we could always get a divorce!"
Lin Yijun then angrily swung her arms and stormed off in a huff toward Qiqi's room.
Lu Chen shrugged his shoulders and kept the food in the fridge. Then he sat down in the living room and watched television.
The next day, Lu Chen went to Dong Jia Electronics after dropping Qiqi off at the kindergarten.
Since he acquired Dong Jia Electronics, he had not been to the company as he was occupied with taking care of his daughter. As such, he decided to drop by today and also take this opportunity to check up on Lin Yijun's client.
As he walked into the entrance of the company, Lu Chen realized that a few guards were pointing fingers and talking behind his back. Upon hearing what the bodyguards said, anger boiled up inside of him.
"Didn't I hear that he was fired? Why did he come back again?"
"Fired? You think too much."
"Ah, I recall that Captain Yu had said that not only was he going to be fired, he couldn't even claim his salary."
"Yes, after all Director Fan was the one that gave the orders. I also thought that it was going to be the end of his career at this company. Yet, who knew that at such a crucial moment, General Manager Xia stepped in to protect him. General Manager Xia even made Director Fan apologize to him. Do you all have any idea why?"
"Why?"
"I heard that his wife, Lin Yijun, was cheating on him with General Manager Xia."
Lu Chen gave a cold glance at the few guards. The guards who were whispering shrugged their shoulders and left.
However as they left, they continued to glance at Lu Chen with contempt.
Lu Chen went over to Xia Jun's office in a rather bad mood. Once he arrived, Xia Jun immediately got up to welcome him.
However, upon seeing the unfriendly look on Lu Chen's face, the smile on his face froze.
Xia Jun awkwardly said, "Young Master Lu, welcome."
Lu Chen walked over to Xia Jun's place and sat on his chair. He took a cigarette out and lit it up. He casually asked, "Do you know that Lin Yijun from the sales department is my wife?"
Xia Jun nodded his head and said, "I only found out about it recently. Young Master Lu, you mean that you wish to promote your wife and help her climb the ranks?"
Lu Chen leaned against the chair and casually said, "With regards to her promotion, it's up to you to decide. Just don't make it too obvious. Anyway, I am here to discuss another matter with you."
Xia Jun nodded his head. Once he found out that Lin Yijun was Lu Chen's wife, he had been thinking about this problem. He had planned to bring this up with Lu Chen as well.
Lu Chen stared at Xia Jun and said, "Now there are rumours in the company about you being in a complicated relationship with my wife. Do you know that?"
"Ah? Young Master Lu, I merely found out about your wife just recently. Usually I don't even interact with her, and to be honest, I haven't even spoken to her. Young Master Lu, you have to investigate and look into this!" Xia Jun shuddered as the rumours were completely made up.
He did cheat on his wife, but all his mistresses were ladies that were not within the company.
He thought about it and knew that someone was setting him up!
"I know that this has nothing to do with you. However, if you can't resolve this matter for me, then get lost," Lu Chen said in a deep voice.
"Young Master Lu, don't worry. I will look into things right this instant. Once I find out who was the one spreading these rumours, I will fire him." Xia Jun heaved a sigh of relief and quickly gave his promise.
"What's the point of firing the person who spread the rumours? Do you think matters will be resolved just like that? Use your brains and think about how to clear your name," Lu Chen said while pointing to his temple.
Xia Jun froze momentarily and understood what Lu Chen meant. Even if I fired the one that spread the rumours and contained the matter within the company, it would be difficult to be certain that the employee who was fired wouldn't continue spreading the rumours outside of the company.
By then, he had a rough idea in his mind. He even thought about the legal means necessary in the event that such means would be needed.
Lu Chen stubbed out his cigarette and said, "Take your time to think about how to resolve this problem. I want you to go and bring me the details of the client that Lin Yijun is dealing with now."
Xia Jun nodded his head and informed his secretary to head over to the sales department.
Shortly after, the secretary brought back the details of the client.
"Young Master Lu, this is the information you require." The secretary respectfully placed a set of files in front of Lu Chen. At the same time, she stared at Lu Chen, her eyes gleaming.
Who would have thought that an ordinary guard in the company would turn into the biggest shareholder of the company overnight.
Furthermore, the original general manager, Xia Jun, even had to stand next to Lu Chen respectfully. Upon seeing such a scene, she felt an inexplicable shudder of awe toward Lu Chen.
Lu Chen took a look at the client's information. Then, he took out his phone and called Lu Zhong.
Since you dare to take advantage of my wife, you have to be prepared to suffer the consequences!
Once Lu Cheng hung up the call, he continued saying, "By the way, give the notice that a management conference for all the staff will be held this Friday. I will also be there."
"Alright, I will go and send out the notice now." Xia Jun's secretary nodded her head and left to go and inform the necessary management executives.
Lu Chen continued discussing with Xia Jun about the strategic development of the company before leaving.
As he passed by Fan Ming's office, he saw Lin Yijun exiting the office together with Fan Ming.
"Why are you here? Are you tailing me?" Lin Yijun frowned as she suddenly saw Lu Chen. Instantly anger boiled inside of her. Her emotions worsened when she thought about how Lu Chen suspected her last night. Right at that moment, she was certain that Lu Chen had been tailing her.
