Finn has been annoyed to death for the past two days.
His new company had just started, and he originally thought that he would take Lisa home and take the opportunity to hype it up so that the company could slowly get on the right track.
It would be even better if he had better luck and could use this opportunity to make some money and impress the old man.
As a result, who would have thought that now there is not only no support for him on the Internet but also opposition and boycott.
In just two days, people in Finn's company resigned one after another, and investors directly withdrew their capital. It seemed that the company would no longer be able to continue.
Finn originally wanted to find someone to help, but before the call came through, the old man sternly ordered everyone in the Lu family not to get involved in this matter and asked them to distance themselves from him as much as possible! Finn was so busy that he felt even more angry when he thought of Lisa.
Sure enough, it was a wise choice to throw away this disaster star!
Now Lisa has caused him so much trouble before she returns to their home.
If you come back later, what's the point?
At this moment, Jade's cell phone rang.
She glanced at the contact person and said to Finn, "It's mom's phone number."
Finn sighed heavily.
Now I have to go back even if I don’t want to.
The Lu family's old house is located on the most prosperous street in City A.
As soon as Finn's car stopped, the housekeeper came and opened the door for him: "Sir, Madam."
Finn said, "My dad..."
"The master is waiting for you in the study," the housekeeper said, then looked at Jade, "Do you want to see the young miss first, madam?"
Hearing Lucy's name, Jade nodded quickly, "Is Lucy feeling better today?"
The housekeeper nodded, "The young miss can get out of bed by herself today."
Jade suddenly couldn't care less. After entering the house, she walked towards Lucy's room.
Finn hesitated downstairs for a long time, and finally plucked up the courage to go upstairs to the study.
After knocking on the door twice, Finn pushed the door open and went in.
Mr. Lu is in good spirits and does not look old even though he is over sixty years old. At this time, he is sitting by the window, with a Go board in front of him and a young man sitting opposite him.
When Finn looked at the young man, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Liam! When did you come back!"
Liam nodded towards Finn: "Dad, I just arrived today."
Finn was very happy. He smiled, stepped forward, and patted his eldest son on the shoulder: "Why didn't you tell me? If you had known, your mother and I would have picked you up. How long will you stay when you come back this time? When will you leave again?"
Mr. Lu answered for Liam: "Liam will not leave when he comes back this time."
Finn was stunned. Mr. Lu's next words shocked Finn even more: "I'm going to let Liam start taking over the company's business."
"Dad!" Finn immediately became anxious, "Liam hasn't graduated yet, why are you giving him such a heavy burden? This..."
"If I don't give it to him, why should I give it to you?" Mr. Lu interrupted Finn coldly, "Don't you look at the good things you have done? I asked you to pick someone up. You made such a big fuss and were almost ready to drag us away. The whole family will support you!"
Finn was instantly stunned.
He opened his mouth, and after a while, he defended: "I didn't expect that Peter would be so difficult to deal with, I..."
"Okay, that's it," Mr. Lu put down a chess piece, "You don't have to worry about the company's affairs anymore. I will take care of Peter's side personally."
Mr. Lu's words clearly told him that the family business would never be handed over to him again!
After hearing this, Finn felt as if his heart was filled with despair. As for the second half of the old man's words, he was no longer in the mood to listen.
Mr. Lu was even more furious when he saw his useless appearance and directly asked him, "You go out first, I have something to talk to Liam."
Finn left the study with a sigh.
Liam looked at Finn's back for a long time before asking, "Grandpa, are you going to go to Yan's house in person?"
Liam actually didn't feel much about this sudden extra sister.
And at the beginning, he did not support his parents going to the Yan family to find someone because in his heart, he only had one younger sister, Lucy, and he did not want another child to share his love with Lucy. But Lisa belongs to the blood of our family, and she couldn't be allowed to wander outside all the time, so Liam didn't stop her.
But who would have thought that not only would the child not go home with them, she would also be so suspicious of their family in front of the media.
In Liam's heart, he had long lost his favorable impression of Lisa.
"Actually, I think it's okay if she doesn't come back," Liam said.
Mr. Lu shook his head. He looked at Liam. After thinking about it for a while, he still couldn't bear to tell him the truth. He just said, "Lisa must return to our house. You don't need to worry about this matter. I have my own way."
Liam asked, "What are you going to do, grandpa?"
Mr. Lu smiled and said nothing.
After Liam played a game of chess with him and left, he called Finn into the study.
As soon as Finn opened the door, he heard Mr. Lu ask, "I heard that Peter opened a company?"
Finn glanced at Mr. Lu and didn't understand why he suddenly asked about this matter: "Yes, it is a small company. I asked someone to investigate. It seems that he only has one partner. The whole company plus Peter is also less than ten people.”
Mr. Lu asked: "What kind of company is it?"
Finn stretched out his hand and scratched his head: "It seems to be a special account for financial management, right?"
After he learned that Peter only opened a small company, he no longer understood it.
After all, compared with their family's company, Peter's company was simply not good enough, and Finn didn't take it seriously at all.
Mr. Lu nodded thoughtfully.
Finn looked at his father's expression and couldn't help but ask, "Dad, why are you asking this?"
Mr. Lu stood up and picked up the family photo on the desk. When he saw Lucy standing next to him, his expression softened slightly, and he asked, "What do you think?"
Finn thought for a moment, then frowned, "You're not going to invest in their company first, are you?"
What he did before was a complete break with the Yan family. Now that Mr. Lu wants to find someone again, he really needs to show his goodwill first.
Wouldn't it be too shameful for them to invest just now?
When he thought that his company had not received investment from Mr. Lu, his face suddenly fell.
Mr. Lu saw through Finn's thoughts at a glance. He shook his head secretly and sighed again.
This son of his was really ruined by him! If Liam were here, he would definitely understand what I meant immediately.
It's just that this matter is somewhat immoral and may even be punished by God.
Mr. Lu couldn't bear to see the future head of the Lu family with this in his hands, so he, the old man, should be responsible for all the sins!
...
After a day, Lisa completely adapted to high school life.
Yan's home is very close to No. 1 Middle School. Lisa only needs to walk ten minutes to the school every day.
After breakfast, Lisa walked slowly towards school.
Although she was already walking very slowly, she did not expect that she would arrive at class very early. It was almost twenty minutes before the first morning class, and there were only a few scattered people in the classroom. Lisa greeted her classmates and walked to her seat.
From a distance, Lisa saw Scott sleeping on the desk.
Thinking of yesterday's bottle of orange juice, Lisa suddenly looked a little uneasy. She didn't want to disturb Scott, so her movements were very gentle, but she didn't want this action to wake him up. The young man lying on the table suddenly raised his head.
The tousled hair on Scott's forehead was curled up from his sleep, and his deep eyes were filled with the tiredness of being disturbed from a good dream. He was like a little puppy forced to wake up from his sleep by his owner, without any resistance.
Lisa didn't know why she thought that way. She blinked and pushed those thoughts out of her mind before saying, "Good morning, yesterday..."
For a moment, it was really difficult to organize her words, and Lisa was stuck for a while. Scott didn't have the patience to wait for Lisa to finish. He reached out and touched the desk for a while and found a warm bag. He took it out and put it on Lisa's desk without looking at it.
"For you."
Scott has always liked courtesy.
Yesterday afternoon, he was in a hurry to play games, so he didn't give Lisa a gift in return. He simply brought a bottle of hot milk to Lisa this morning.
Lisa looked at the milk on his table. Lisa couldn't figure it out. She wondered, "Is this for me?"
Scott nodded lazily.
In this way, he would not owe Lisa anything, and he would be more confident in rejecting Lisa's pursuit later.
Lisa stared at the milk on the desk for a long time, then suddenly asked, "Is it because of the bottle of orange juice yesterday..."
Scott said, "Yeah."
Sure enough, I was misunderstood.
Lisa quickly explained, "No, it was because Teacher Jason was looking for you yesterday, so I went to look for you, but you..."
"You don't need to explain," Scott yawned and leaned on the table, "I understand."
Lisa: "..."
What do you understand?
How did you understand?
"No, you really misunderstood." Lisa felt that she still needed to explain clearly, so she told Scott what happened yesterday.
Scott yawned again and nodded perfunctorily.
This reason is well-founded.
But he was too lazy to refute. Lisa wanted to find a way out for herself; he understood.
Lisa didn't know what Scott was thinking. When Scott nodded, she thought he believed what she said. She breathed a sigh of relief and asked again, "Then, that bottle of orange juice?"
Scott: "I drank it."
Lisa: "Ah?"
Scott blinked. It wasn't that he deliberately wanted to drink Lisa's bottle of orange juice; it was just that he was so excited when he went to play games yesterday that he just picked up a bottle of someone's and drank it.
He really didn't expect that Lisa had drunk that bottle of orange juice.
As soon as the words "indirect kiss" came out, Scott frowned subconsciously.
He suppressed his sleepiness and glanced at Lisa again.
Lisa was even more shocked than he was. Her fair skin was covered with a thin layer of red, her red lips were slightly open, and her face was full of disbelief.
Scott originally found it a bit difficult to accept, but after seeing Lisa's face, the unnatural feeling in his heart immediately disappeared.
Drinking a bottle of juice with Lisa didn't seem so hard to accept. Drowsiness came up again. Scott yawned, and his crow-feather eyelashes were covered with moisture. He couldn't resist the sleepiness anymore, ignored Lisa, who still looked surprised, and fell asleep on the table.
Compared with Scott's calmness, Lisa was much more unnatural.
Throughout the whole day, her face felt a little hot when she saw the milk on her desk.
In the next few days, Lisa felt a little uncomfortable when facing Scott.
Time flies and it's Friday.
Every Friday, students become inexplicably excited.
Even Scott, who usually sleeps on the table all day long, rarely slept. Instead, he sat in the back row and played with his mobile phone.
The last class of Class 1 was a self-study class. Lisa had a completed test paper in front of her. She was checking the wrong questions when she suddenly heard someone calling her name.
