Chapter 1827: The Scheming Father-in-Law

"dad?"

"Hey, your mother has been angry with you because of A Jing's affairs in the past two years. I know it's not your fault. The most painful thing in the world is for a white-haired person to send a black-haired person to someone else. You have to understand your mother!"

"I know!" Therefore, she owed something to the Lu family. If she had persisted and not married Lu Jing, maybe Lu Jing would not have died.

"As for what happened a few nights ago..." Speaking of what happened that night, Lu Qiming's tone obviously changed. He was probably talking about such things to his daughter-in-law. Lu Qiming was obviously a little embarrassed. When he saw Jane Eyre and heard that she As he spoke, his face became a little ugly. After a pause, he changed the subject: "That little Jane, do you know the Nan family?"

Nan family?

Her beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes.

Seeing Jane Eyre's puzzled look, Lu Qiming sighed and said, "Little Jane, you know that dad has been preparing for the land in the west of the city for a long time, right?"

"I know!" I heard that people from Nanjia in Kyoto came and said they wanted to develop a market in the west of the city. My father-in-law put too much effort into winning that project. They said that shopping malls are like battlefields. How could the project be possible? It was so easy to win, but the father-in-law was not the only one who coveted the land. If the Lu family wanted to swallow up this project, the financial, material and human resources of all companies were actually far from enough.

Seeing Jane Eyre nodding, Lu Qiming's eyes lit up, and there was a hint of smile on his serious expression.

"Then do you know who the Nan family sent this time?"

Lu Qiming's words suddenly made Jane Eyre's heart skip a beat. She suddenly raised her head to look at her father-in-law, and saw him continuing with a smile on his face: "It is said that he is an illegitimate son of the Nan family. Although he is an illegitimate son, according to my years of looking at people, this man is not simple! "

boom.

Something seemed to explode in her mind. Jane Eyre trembled all over, and a chill spread from the soles of her feet to all parts of her body along her limbs.

"By the way, you know, it is the first time for Nan Sijue to come to our City A. He is not familiar with the place. As the host, we must entertain him well and let Nan Sijue appreciate the customs and customs of our City A. So, I think …….”

Lu Qiming did not say any more.

Jane Eyre naturally understood. The subtext in her father-in-law's words was that Nan Sijue needed someone to eat, sleep and play with, and she, Jane Eyre, was the best candidate.

Jane Eyre's face was a little pale, and she almost subconsciously wanted to refuse.

"Dad, I think..."

"Hey, Xiao Jane, you know that if we can't win this project, our Lu family will face bankruptcy. Dad doesn't want to hide it from you. For this project, Dad has mortgaged all his assets to the bank just to win this project. So, little Jane, don’t let dad down!”

In fact, Lu Qiming would let Jane Eyre go. The reason is very simple, because Jane Eyre is very beautiful. Although Jane Eyre is the daughter-in-law of their Lu family, since that incident happened, although Lu Qiming has not said it, he does not think that Jane Eyre is qualified to become the daughter-in-law of their Lu family, and based on what he has said these days, Through investigation, he found that Nan Sijue seemed to have some past relationship with his daughter-in-law.

The businessman always puts profit first, not to mention that his eldest son is already dead, and Jane Eyre is just a name in their Lu family. He never thought that such a beautiful woman would really be a widow for his son.

The father-in-law's tone was unprecedentedly solemn, making Jane Eyre's words of rejection stuck in her throat. She opened her mouth, and finally uttered only one word.

"yes!"

In fact, she wanted to say that it would not matter if she went. Could it be that if the father-in-law thought that she had gone, would Nan Sijue give the project to the Lu family? However, she still didn't say the last sentence, or did her father-in-law know something?

Emgrand, in the VIP room.

"Come on, come on, Mr. Nan, let me toast you again. I didn't expect Mr. Nan to be so powerful at such a young age. He really puts us old men to shame!"

"Yes, yes, they say that since ancient times, heroes have emerged from youth. It is indeed the waves behind the Yangtze River that push the waves ahead!"

Behind the sound of crystal glasses clinking, there were faces smiling flatteringly.

Nan Sijue's expression was cold. He drank the red wine in his glass and his eyes were slightly downcast.

Since marrying into the Lu family, Jane Eyre has not been to an entertainment club for several years. She has always disliked the environment inside. The smell of tobacco and alcohol made her nose and throat extremely uncomfortable.

She sat in the corner, feeling like she was being stabbed by needles.

She glanced at Nan Sijue, who was surrounded by a group of people and looked as cold as an emperor, and her heart tightened.

He tightened his collar suddenly, his face turned pale.

"Miss Jane, you don't look good. Are you feeling uncomfortable?" The man sitting next to Jane Eyre handed over a cup and asked in a caring tone.

"It's okay!" Jane Eyre wasn't used to being approached by strangers, so she subconsciously pushed the cup away.

"This is warm water. The air conditioner in the room is a little low. Can you drink some?"

In order for Jane Eyre to successfully attract Nan Sijue's attention, Lu Qiming spent a lot of money to prepare the latest dress for her. The dark purple long skirt outlined her perfect lines. Coupled with that pretty little face, people can't help but cast their eyes on her every time she smiles.

To be honest, Jane Eyre was not used to this, but due to the pressure from her father-in-law's words, she still came here. However, not long after she entered the door, she realized that she was not wearing too thin clothes, especially in this air-conditioned room. The room was so open that she couldn't help but shiver.

"Thank you!" Touching the warm water cup, the originally cold palms felt a little warm. She raised her little face and smiled at the man.

A small dimple bloomed at the corner of her lips, and her dark eyes seemed to hide a pool of clear spring water, shining with water light under the light. Delicate and charming.

The smile on the man's face froze instantly, and he stared blankly, with a little obsession in his eyes.

He was originally sent by the company to entertain Nan Sijue and to find out the news, but when he saw that the room was full of people from City A, he knew that he didn't have the ability at all, so he found an inconspicuous place to sit down. Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected gain. The woman in front of him didn't look very old, and she didn't look like a waitress here. Maybe she was sent by the company like himself? Thinking of this, the light in the man's eyes became brighter.

After drinking the water, Jane Eyre clearly felt her body gradually warming up. As soon as she put down the cup, she felt a cold gaze looking at her. Her fingertips froze and her breathing paused. She followed the gaze and met a pair of deep eyes.
