Chapter 126: He’s Already On His Way
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
A black car stopped at the entrance of the Lu Corporation.
“President Lu, we’re here.” Zhou Yan stopped the car steadily before speaking up.
Lu Shiyuan, who was resting, slowly opened his eyes.
“Why aren’t there any reporters?”
He looked outside. Other than the occasional passersby, there were no reporters around the Lu Corporation’s main entrance.
When he was taken away by the police yesterday, reporters equipped with cameras surrounded the entrance of the Lu Corporation. That was the most embarrassing moment of his life.
All of this was thanks to Lin Shanchu!
“I got people to evacuate them in advance,” Zhou Yan hurriedly replied.
If he couldn’t even do this, he wouldn’t be able to retain his position as Lu Shiyuan’s special assistant.
When Lu Shiyuan heard this, his expression softened a little.
Zhou Yan got out of the car and opened the back door for Lu Shiyuan respectfully.
Lu Shiyuan got out of the car and walked toward the Lu Corporation building.
As he walked, he took out his phone and continued to call Lin Shanchu.
After he left the police station, he had already begun calling her.
Up until now, he had already made dozens of calls.
But Lin Shanchu didn’t answer any of the calls.
Lu Shiyuan called Lin Shanchu again.
The result was the same as before. No one picked up.
The call was automatically hung up.
The elevator doors opened at this moment.
Lu Shiyuan gripped his phone tightly and walked out with a gloomy expression. He used so much force that his knuckles were starting to turn white.
Zhou Yan could feel Lu Shiyuan’s mood worsening by the second. He just followed closely behind him, not daring to say a word.
On the way back, he had already told Lu Shiyuan about Lin Shanchu wrecking the president’s office.
But he knew Lu Shiyuan’s temper.
When he saw the ruined office later, he would probably be furious.
Lu Shiyuan walked to the door of the president’s office and stopped.
His gaze moved from the big hole in the office door to the mess inside.
Zhou Yan watched by the side and did not even dare to breathe loudly.
Just as he thought that Lu Shiyuan was going to smash his phone again, Lu Shiyuan suddenly laughed softly.
The laughter grew louder and louder.
“President Lu…” This laughter sounded particularly terrifying to the ears.
Lu Shiyuan walked in as if he didn’t hear him.
He slowly walked around the room.
It was as leisurely as taking a walk in the garden.
Finally, he stopped in front of the bookshelf that had been smashed the most.
“Lin Shanchu moved into my house when she was six years old. We spent sixteen years together, but I didn’t know that she had such a trick up her sleeve.”
From Lu Shivuan’s tone, Zhou Yan could vazuelv detect a trace of unusual
excitement.
Did he get… too angry with her?
“Get someone to tidy up the office.” After Lu Shiyuan finished speaking, he found a chair in the mess and sat on it after cleaning up the dust.
Zhou Yan was slightly startled when he saw the situation. He immediately replied, “President Lu, you can go to the lounge next door…”
“She has to come to the Lu Corporation again. I’ll wait for her here.” Lu Shiyuan interrupted him.
The ‘she’ in his words naturally referred to Lin Shanchu.
Zhou Yan did not dare to say anything more either.
He knew that Lu Shiyuan had been calling Lin Shanchu the whole time.
Although Lin Shanchu hadn’t picked up any of his calls, she still had to make a trip to the Lu Corporation.
Lu Shiyuan waited and waited, but Lin Shanchu was nowhere to be seen.
Instead, a flustered Zhou Yan came stumbling back.
“President Lu, something bad happened!”
Zhou Yan ran in with his phone while looking anxiously.
“What is it?” Lu Shiyuan disliked it when his subordinates were being impatient, so he frowned slightly.
“Ms. Lin and the other shareholders of the company are holding a live press conference! ”
Zhou Yan barely finished speaking when Lu Shiyuan snatched his phone away.
The press conference had obviously just started.
However, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room was close to ten million.
The reporters were in the midst of asking Lin Shanchu some questions.
“Miss Lin, you said before that you would give everyone an explanation for what happened to Jing Ming. Now that President Lu has been released by the police, do you have anything to say about that?”
Lin Shanchu sat in front of the podium, her expression calm and collected.
“The police have re-investigated Jing Ming’s case. Although Lu Shiyuan was released, it doesn’t mean that he is not responsible for Jing Ming’s death. As the people in charge of the Lu Corporation, we should all be responsible for Jing Ming’s death.
“Jing Ming was a very outstanding artist. We should remember him for many years to come, be it three years or ten years. The Lu Corporation will also take this as a warning. We pay attention to the physical and mental health of our celebrities, respect and understand them, and work together with them to improve. We will set an example for the industry…”
In the live broadcast room, other than the netizens who were watching the show.
Most of them were Jing Ming’s fans.
After listening to Lin Shanchu’s speech, they were so touched that they started commenting.
[It’s been three years. Finally, someone from the Lu Corporation has stepped forward to take responsibility.]
[We have never blamed the company for his death. We only want the company’s stance on this matter.]
[What a joke. After three years, the Lin woman has stepped forward to clean up the mess for the Lu guy’s company.]
[Jing Ming worked hard for the Lu Corporation for five years before he died. After his death, the company concluded the matter just by saying ‘our condolences’. Capitalism is really cruel.]
[Lu Shiyuan is crueler than capitalism.]
[I’m thinking that if Lin Shanchu had been the one managing the Lu
Corporation back then, Jing Ming wouldn’t have died. Uwaaah…]
[They really broke through our defenses. This is the proper response of the Lu Corporation that we’ve been waiting for for the past three years.]
[At this point, Lu Shiyuan, the culprit, is still hiding in his shell. He hopes that Lin Shanchu will seize power and take over the company. Otherwise, he will harm more celebrities…]
In the time it took Lin Shanchu to say a few words, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room had already exceeded ten million.
Lu Shiyuan was so angry that his chest heaved up and down violently. “Where is she?”
“Yong Shui Pavilion.” Zhou Yan already found out where Lin Shanchu was a long time ago.
Lu Shiyuan got up and walked out.
On the way to Yong Shui Pavilion, Lu Shiyuan had been watching Lin Shanchu’s live broadcast of the press conference.
Lin Shanchu answered every question from the reporters.
There were no mistakes.
Lu Shiyuan suddenly remembered when Lin Shanchu first came to the Lu family during his childhood years.
At that time, she was timid and could not sleep at night because of the slightest disturbance.
She had to hold his hand in order to fall asleep.
At that time, Lin Shanchu had a soft personality and was very reliant on him. She was especially likable.
The Lin Shanchu now kept fighting him while forcing him into a corner.
Every move was ruthless and merciless.
He couldn’t remember which step had gone wrong that led to today’s situation.
However, he was very clear about it.
The soft-hearted and reliant Lin Shanchu had disappeared.
Moreover, she might never return.
The live broadcast continued.
“Why didn’t Mr. Lu Shiyuan come to such an occasion today?” The reporter asked.
“He’s already on his way here.” Lin Shanchu’s expression looked a little tense.
The subtle change in expression in such a situation caused everyone to start speculating..
