Using Marriage as Bait

Chapter 40: .40 he helped her out

Although she guessed it would be Lu Junting on the way here, she was really shocked when she heard his name. Lu Junting helped pay off her parents' debts, and Lu Junting also paid for her tuition and living expenses. In order to make her live at ease in the Lu family, he even lied that his parents had left her more than one million yuan.

Just out of respect for her parents? Ten million is not a small amount. At that time, he had just taken over Changheng, and he had not yet started to invest in the later Baofeng Technology. Changheng was far from developing as well as it is now, but he took more than ten million yuan as soon as he said it.

Zhang Yao said again: "Xixi, you can't let Jun Ting know about this. He told us at the time that he couldn't tell you."

Why not tell her, why not let her know? Do you want her to be more comfortable in the Lu family? Don't want her to feel that she owes them to the Lu family, and don't want her to feel uneasy because she is under someone else's control?

That's why she deliberately gave out one million, falsely claiming that his parents left her for her, and she always thought that her parents left her one million, and she gave the money to Zhang Yao It is precisely because of this that she has been more comfortable in the Lu family all these years. At least she did not eat and live for free, she gave her living expenses.

She had to pay her parents' debts at a young age.

No, not the Lu family, but Lu Junting.

Lin Xiyu took a few steps back, she closed her eyes, and the big tears rolled from her eyes instantly. Zhang Yao was frightened by her appearance, and she hurriedly asked, "Xixi, what's the matter?"

"I'm fine, Aunt Yao, I'm fine."

Her voice was unbelievably hoarse.

Why does Lu Junting help the Lin family? The Lin family has no reason with him. Even if her mother and Zhang Yao are good sisters, they have nothing to do with Lu Junting. The second elder of the Lin family?

She suddenly thought of what Lu Junting once said to her, "That's because you forgot, we have known each other for a long time, when we were very young, when you came to Lu's house to play, We got to know each other."

He also said: "Remember the painting you saw in my room? It is me and you, the little girl is you, and the little boy is me."

She just thought he was lying to her, she felt that this man was full of lies.

What if they knew each other at a very young age? What if it was really her and Lu Junting in the painting, what if she really helped him blow through the wound when he was injured? What if she really forgot about the intersection they had? What if he really didn't lie to her?

Lin Xiyu suddenly thought of something, she hurriedly said to Zhang Yao, "Aunt Yao, I remember you told me that I came here to live for a while when I was about three years old."

The other day, Zhang Yao talked about the embarrassment between her and Lu Yuan when they were young, and mentioned that she lived here when she was three years old, but she had no memory of it.

"I remember, what happened?"

"Did I take pictures with Lu Yuan at that time?"

Zhang Yao said: "I don't remember much. It seems to have been filmed, but it was many years ago, and I don't know much."

"Can Aunt Yao help me find pictures of me at that time?"

Seeing her anxious face, Zhang Yao asked, "What's the matter, Xixi?"

"Nothing, I just want to know what I was like at that time, please help me with Aunt Yao."

Zhang Yao didn't know why she was suddenly anxious to get a photo when she was three years old. Her anxious appearance made Zhang Yao also worried, she said: "The house has been renovated before, and I don't know many things. I can't guarantee that I'll find it wherever it's lost."

"It doesn't matter, just try to see if you can find it, and forget it if you can't find it."

The third room was renovated once after Lin Xiyu moved to live with Lu Junting. At that time, they all moved to the main building because of the decoration of the three rooms. Lin Xiyu also slept in Lu Junting's room because of this.

Zhang Yao packed all the "ancient" things into several large boxes and put them in the attic. Now Lin Xiyu was in a hurry, so she called a helper to come and look for it together.

The four large cabinets were stuffed with some old clothes that were not worn, some toys that Lu Yuan played with when she was a child, and some gadgets.

In one of the cabinets there is a large photo album, Lin Xiyu turned it over, but there is no photo of her in it. After tossing around for a long time, they couldn't find a photo of Lin Xiyu. Lin Xiyu was about to give up, when he heard Zhang Yao exclaim in surprise, "There's really a group photo."

Lin Xiyu hurriedly leaned over to see it. It was indeed a photo of her and Lu Yuan. It should have been taken at the playground. The background behind them was a huge Ferris wheel.

She and Lu Yuan were still young at that time, they sat side by side under the Ferris wheel, smiling with a white row of teeth.

Lin Xiyu thought that Lu Junting was lying to her, because she remembered that she had never had long hair before she was eleven years old, she had a lot of hair and had lice, and her mother was too busy to help her So she remembered that she had short haircuts before junior high school, so she decided that the girl with the ponytail in the painting was not her.

However, the little girl in the photo has long, thick hair hanging down. If it is tied into a ponytail, it should be about the same length as the little girl in the painting.

It turned out that when she was three years old, she really had long hair.

Lin Xiyu had forgotten how to leave the Lu family. She sat in the taxi in a daze, and some images flashed repeatedly in her mind.

"Can't you see I'm so obvious? Because I like you!"

She didn't believe he liked her, she thought he was a liar, he was taking advantage of her.

She still remembered that day, the sky was gloomy and gray, and the willows on both sides of the road were shrouded in a layer of gray smoke. He hugged her from behind at the gate of the community, and he said to her in a hoarse voice, "Hee hee, I love you, I really love you, I can't live without you."

She was still fortunate at that time, but fortunately she didn't believe him, she even mocked in her heart, look, how similar he is, this man with deep scheming, he doesn't even blink when he lies .

So she rejected him mercilessly.

At that time, even the injury in his eyes was so realistic, like a beast that was hit hard, and he was seriously injured and would fall down at any time. The calm Lu Junting showed such a dejected appearance, which surprised her for a long time.

Now that I think about it, he was really in pain at that time, right?

"I've never liked you, and you're not my type."

I don't know what these words sound like to his ears.

Lu Junting was there.

It's so close, you can get to the elevator just across the street.

But it's so far away that they no longer have any relationship.

Lin Xiyu got off the bus here. She sat on the bus platform. Changheng Group is a major landmark in Ancheng, and the platform is named after Changheng.

Why did she hate Lu Junting, because he used her as a substitute and tricked her into giving birth to a child, she thought he was just using her.

What if he just tricked her into having a baby? She never regretted giving birth to a good baby, she just hated him for using her as a substitute, so she lied to her to give birth to a child.

But if he really never used her as a substitute, if he really did what he said, he wanted her to give birth to a child because he liked her, would she still hate him?

The man who silently paid her parents' debts for her and didn't let her know, and even paid for her to live and study in peace, the man who stood in the snow and begged her father to leave him with letters.

What right does she have to hate him? Even if he really uses her as a substitute, she has no right to hate him. What she owes him will never be repaid in this lifetime. More than 10 million, her life is not more than 10 million, even if he really wants to use her, let her give birth to a child for him for the rest of his life, I am afraid it is not clear, right? And he also let her live with peace of mind in the Lu family for so many years.

She remembered that he once said, "You don't have to do anything, as long as you know how to run home when it rains."

He had just photographed the letter his father sent her, he didn't need her to do anything, he just needed her to run home in the rain. But she did not fulfill such a simple request.

She looked at the rainy sky in front of her and laughed to herself.

It rained Lu Junting again today, can I still run home?

**

Lin Xiyu woke up from her dream. She couldn't remember how many times this was the first time she dreamed of Lu Junting. She sat on the bed for a while and took a look at her phone. It was already six o'clock. Today is Saturday, she doesn't have to go to the club, she wakes up and makes a simple breakfast, she bought a house near the club, two-bedroom, enough for her to live alone. Just after breakfast, Lin Xiyu received a call from Lu Yuan, who asked her to go out to play.

"Anyway, you have nothing to do, go out and stroll around, don't be bored at home."

Lin Xiyu deserves it and is also refreshing, "Okay."

The two went to the mall to buy some things, and then found a cafe for refreshments.

The two were chatting, and Lu Yuan suddenly thought of something and said to her, "By the way, our company will hold an anniversary tomorrow. Come and play if you're okay."

Lu Yuan is now in the legal department of Changheng, and is the deputy minister of the legal department. Originally, the Lu family had regulations that neither the second and third rooms of the Lu family could hold positions in Changheng. I was afraid There will be family infighting, but Lu Yuanjin's Changheng Legal Department is directly appointed by Lu Junting, and the rules are set by people. As the current head of the Lu family, Lu Junting can't say anything about his arrangement.

Lin Xiyu said, "Why should I be an outsider for your company's anniversary?"

"Watch the fun, there will be a lot of shows."

Changheng's anniversary didn't know if Lu Junting would go, so Lin Xiyu asked casually, "Brother Junting will go?"

"I will definitely go, he will also give awards to outstanding employees." Lu Yuan thought she was afraid of seeing her eldest brother embarrassed. Since the divorce, Lin Xiyu has obviously been avoiding her eldest brother, Lu Yuan said: "Aiya It's nothing, although you are divorced, don't you still have a common child? Just say hello when you meet, there is no need to be old and dead like enemies."

Lin Xiyu didn't want to hide from him, but wanted to see him, she just wanted to look at him from a distance to see if he was doing well.

"Can I go?" Lin Xiyu asked.

"Of course I can, I'll get you an admission ticket and I'll take you in."

Changheng's anniversary celebration was held in Changheng's auditorium. The auditorium is on the seventh floor. Not all employees of Changheng can participate. Today, the anniversary celebration is attended by some management personnel. and some great staff.

Lu Yuan was waiting for her at the gate of Changheng Group. Changheng's management is very strict. To get on the elevator, you must swipe the employee card. Lin Xiyu cannot enter alone.

Lu Yuan took her to the auditorium on the seventh floor and found a seat to sit down. It was in the third row. This position was quite close to the front table. she.

She actually wanted to look at him from a distance, because of her guilt, she wanted to see how he was doing, and she didn't want to meet him.

"Lu Yuan, I'd better sit in the back."

"Why?" Lu Yuan looked puzzled, "Isn't it bad to sit in the front? There will be a show later, so I can see it clearly."

"It's weird that I'm an outsider sitting in the front. I'll go to the back."

She walked away without waiting for Lu Yuan to speak. The auditorium was huge and there were many people. Lu Yuan wanted to stop her, but when she looked back, Lin Xiyu had already disappeared in the crowd.

"Really, if you don't sit in such a good position, you have to sit in the back."

Lu Yuan muttered silently. As soon as she finished speaking, there was another person in the seat next to her. Lu Yuan subconsciously glanced sideways, and she was surprised to see the person coming, it turned out to be Qin Yue.

"Isn't Mr. Qin's position in the first row? Why did you come here?"

Qin Yue looked ahead without looking at her, "others changed seats with me, he said he was in the third row, I saw that there was only one vacant seat in the third row, so I sat down ."

Lu Yuan leaned her elbow on the armrest to support her chin, "Who is so bold to change positions with President Qin?" "I think Qin always came to sit with me on purpose? What? President Qin has a crush on me?"

Qin Yue finally glanced sideways at her slowly, with a serious face and a solemn tone, "Miss Lu, please respect yourself."

She really couldn't see his serious and serious appearance, she was full of bad taste and wanted to destroy. Lu Yuan leaned over and deliberately got very close to him. She winked at him, her warm breath sprayed all over Qin Yue's face, and she said, "what if I don't respect myself?"

Qin Yue: “…”

Qin Yue turned his head back with an expression of not wanting to pay attention to her at all. He put his hands on his knees and sat upright. Lu Yuan remembered that Qin Yue seemed to have been a soldier before. The appearance of a soldier.

However, Lu Yuan soon discovered an interesting thing, this man with a serious expression and sitting upright, his ears were as if they had been boiled, and his ears were bright red.

Obviously with a serious face but ashamed to death, she blushes when she flirts.

Lu Yuan held her chin and looked at him with a smile in her eyes, "Qin Yue, why are you so cute."

Qin Yue: “…”

Lin Xiyu found a seat in the last row and sat down. The anniversary celebration was about to start. The host took the stage to maintain order, and soon the noisy auditorium became quiet. The Changheng Group has deep pockets, and the hosts of the anniversary are all from TV stations, and the host is first-rate.

Lu Yuan didn't lie to her, there are indeed many programs on Changheng's anniversary, and they are all very exciting, but Lin Xiyu has no intention of enjoying the programs.

Lu Junting came to the stage after the fifth show. With a burst of warm applause, he stood in the center of the stage. There was a big screen behind him showing his appearance, even if Lin Xiyu was sitting in the last row, he could see it clearly.

He was well-dressed and in good spirits. He had no stage fright in the face of the overwhelming crowd of people in the audience. He calmly summarized the work, motivated the employees, and won bursts of cheers from the following.

Lin Xiyu looked at the man in front of her, thinking of the ruthless rejection she once faced, he stood at the door of the community where she lived with a look of hurt and hesitation, and he hadn't left for a long time.

And now, standing in the spotlight, calm and confident men are completely different. He was supposed to be like this, with all the stars and the moon, standing at the highest point, attracting attention and being sought after by everyone.

Beside Lu Junting was a woman with short shoulder-length hair, wearing a white suit and black wide-leg pants, looking smart and stylish.

In the past year, although Lin Xiyu did not meet Lu Junting in real life, he often saw him in financial forums. This woman often followed him to attend events in recent years, and Lu Yuan and her Said her name.

Her name is Liu Manqing. She was originally in an overseas branch, but was transferred back to the headquarters at the end of last year. Now she is the vice president of Changheng Group. According to Lu Yuan, her work ability is very good.

A few girls were sitting in the front seat of Lin Xiyu, and those girls were whispering at the moment.

"I think our Vice President Liu and Chairman Lu are really a good match, what do you think?"

"I also think that men are handsome and women are beautiful, and their work is also very tacit. No matter how you look at them, I think they are a couple."

"Yeah, one is the darling son of the sky, and the other is the arrogant daughter of the sky. I've knocked this CP down."

Lu Junting didn't stay on the stage for long, he simply explained a few words, awarded the award to the outstanding employee and left. As soon as Lu Junting left, Lin Xiyu didn't have the heart to appreciate the performance. She sent Lu Yuan a message. A text message, Lu Yuan was probably watching the show and didn't reply to her.

Lin Xiyu came out of the auditorium. The Changheng Group is very big. She walked around to find the elevator. At this time, everyone went to celebrate the anniversary. It was quiet in the corridor, and Lin Xiyu was next to the elevator. people waiting.

The elevator came, Lin Xiyu went upstairs and pressed minus one, but it didn't work after pressing it a few times, Lin Xiyu quickly understood, she didn't expect Changheng to be so strict, she had to swipe her card to go upstairs, Do you have to swipe your card downstairs?

Lin Xiyu was hesitating, whether to go back to the auditorium to find Lu Yuan or find the stairs to go straight down, just as Lin Xiyu hesitated, she saw the elevator door suddenly open, and a woman stood outside, who looked like Changheng's Staff.

The woman walked into the elevator, gave her a suspicious look and asked, "Why don't you swipe your card?"

Lin Xiyu was a little embarrassed, "I..."

Before she finished speaking, the woman suddenly became vigilant, "Which department are you from?"

Lin Xiyu said: "I am not from Changheng, I am..."

"You're not from Changheng?" The woman exclaimed, "How did you get in if you weren't from Changheng?"

Lin Xiyu was about to explain, but the woman pulled her out of the elevator and shouted at the outside: "Security, security, come here."

The security guard on duty nearby heard the sound and hurried over, the woman pushed Lin Xiyu forward and said, "Hurry up and send this person to the police station, the sneaky ones don't know how to get in, I don't think she looks like she's going to do good things."

Lin Xiyu: "…"

Lin Xiyu really didn't expect Changheng's people to be so sensitive to outsiders, and he would treat her as a villain without listening to her explanation.

The first security guard stepped forward and asked very rudely, "How did you sneak in? What are you doing here?"

Lin Xiyu said before answering the woman, "Don't talk nonsense with her, just take her to the police station, the police will ask."

Then the security guard did not ask any more questions, and directly said to Lin Xiyu: "Come with me."

"That...I'm not a bad person, my friend brought me in."

"Friend?" The woman said sharply, "What's your name? Which department?"

Lin Xiyu was about to say Lu Yuan's name when she heard a screeching sound.

"What's going on?"

The few people here heard the voice and turned their heads to look, and saw a group of people walking across the corridor, but they saw the one headed by a sword-brow and star-shaped eyes, with a dignified appearance, surrounded by a group of people, such as Stand out like a dazzling chicken. Lin Xiyu saw him at a glance, but only heard a thump in her heart. Lin Xiyu swore that she came here today just to take a look at Lu Junting from a distance, and never thought that she would meet him.

This was probably the first time she met Lu Junting after a year, so suddenly, it was still in this situation.

Lu Junting followed a group of people behind him. The scolding just now was sent by the assistant next to him.

Lu Junting naturally saw Lin Xiyu, his eyes swept across her face, his expression did not change much, and it was no surprise why she suddenly appeared here, as if she was just a person to him A person who is not ordinary, or he is too deep, even if he has emotions, he will not show it.

Lu Junting just gave a speech at the anniversary meeting, who doesn't know the big boss. When the woman saw Lu Junting, she immediately changed her face and greeted respectfully, "I'm sorry to disturb Director Lu, but it's just a small matter, we'll deal with it soon."

She winked at several security envoys, the security guards immediately stepped aside, and dragged Lin Xiyu, Lin Xiyu was suddenly pulled back, almost lost her footing, and stumbled a few steps.

The woman said respectfully, "Dong Lu please."

Lu Junting didn't leave, he didn't leave, and the people behind him naturally followed.

"What's the matter?" he asked.

The woman said: "It's not a big deal, it's just that this person can't get off the elevator without getting stuck. I think she's sneaky and is asking the security guard to take her to the police station."

Lu Junting's eyes fell on Lin Xiyu again, Lin Xiyu was so embarrassed that he ran to his company and was caught by him, not to mention that he was caught by him in this situation.

In a dilemma, Lin Xiyu turned his face to the side and pretended not to know him.

"I brought her here." Lu Junting said suddenly.

These words not only surprised the woman, but even Lin Xiyu looked in disbelief. The attitude of her pretending not to know her just now was so obvious that he couldn't see it.

"Any questions?" Lu Junting asked again.

The security guard who was pulling Lin Xiyu hurriedly released her. The woman came back to her senses and said with a dry smile: "Then...it seems like a misunderstanding, sorry Lu Dong."

"It's okay to be vigilant in the face of outsiders, but arresting people without asking them clearly would be a bit too rash."

Lu Junting said calmly, but the woman took a deep breath when she heard this, and hurriedly said, "Mr. Lu said that I was too impulsive." After speaking, he said to Lin Xiyu: "I'm sorry ma'am. Changheng lost some confidential documents recently. Everyone is very nervous during this time. I hope it didn't cause you any trouble."

Lin Xiyu replied absentmindedly, "It's okay."

Lu Junting turned his head and confessed a few words to the people around him. Lin Xiyu was distracted and did not understand what he said. Anyway, when she came back to her senses, there was nothing else in the corridor except him. The tall figure of Lu Junting entered the elevator. He looked at her and asked, "Aren't you going?"

Lin Xiyu took a deep breath, lowered her head and got on the elevator.

The door of the elevator closed slowly, and in the not very spacious elevator, it was just him and her.
