After the little crazy pretended to be well behaved, all the rich families competed for his favor

Chapter 25: More pretentious than me? She seems to have too much free time!
Luo Chu stood there with his eyes wide open, staring at the strange boy who was about to pounce on Lu Chen.

With a bang, the string of reason in the brain broke.

Why so close?

Why is a boy crying?

...You are more pretentious than me!

Inexplicably, the desire for possession surged up, and a different kind of anger that I had never experienced before exploded in my heart.

Luo Chu's sanity was burned to ashes.

Where did this come from!!!

Unable to control his growing anger, his disguise burned away and Luo Chu subconsciously swung his fist forward.

Another blocking sound came even faster.

"Jiang Rui!" an angry female voice sounded.

His angry tone was not much better than Luo Chu's, who was furious when he saw Lu Chen being robbed.

The woman was dressed in an elite workplace outfit, walking hurriedly, grabbing the crying boy who was about to hug Lu Chen, and hurriedly stopped him: "My ancestors! This is still outside! Pay attention to your image!"

"Huh... This is the last time I'll save face for your former employer. I will never hide it for you again!" As he said this, he patted his chest and glanced around in fear. Seeing that no one noticed, he felt relieved.

Then he looked at everyone in Rebellion with disdain, especially Lu Chen with a few white eyes, and said meaningfully: "Xiao Rui, you are a future seed player, don't lower your status so easily and let some nobody come to get you!"

"What the hell are you talking about--" Jiang Xi, who was holding the keyboard, exploded.

He raised his head with angry eyes, as if he was about to roll up his sleeves and rush out.

Lao Cha quickly caught him.

But even if it wasn't pressed down, the lame leg in a cast wouldn't be able to cause any big trouble.

However, Jiang Rui, seeing Jiang Xi rushing towards him, subconsciously trembled in fear and took a step back.

After his eyes fell on the figure in plaster cast and on crutches, he breathed a sigh of relief and moved back.

"Brother Jiang...is your leg okay?" Jiang Rui looked at Jiang Xi's plaster cast, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

His eyes were full of worry, but after a few seconds he began to feel relieved.

I thought about the day when the microphone stand chased me for dozens of meters and almost hit me on the head.

Fortunately, Jiang Xi tripped and fell down, otherwise he would be lying there...

"I brought you something." Jiang Rui said flatteringly, "My grandmother raised some chickens in the countryside, and some beef bones. They can be stewed into soup to make you nutritious. I'll ask Sister Li to take you to the car later. Eat more when you get home—"

Maybe it really is well-intentioned.

But to Jiang Xi's ears, it was the most hurtful ridicule.

He yelled, "Get lost! You're a treacherous runaway. You left so cleanly and quickly at first. Why are you pretending to be so hypocritical now?"

"I..." Jiang Rui bit his lip, his eyes filled with embarrassment.

To be fair, Jiang Rui does have a good appearance. He is fair-skinned, delicate, and speaks in a soft voice. He is the type of little puppy who can arouse everyone's desire to protect him.

Although Lu Chen's appearance is unquestionable, he usually plays the drums at the end of the stage. He is also very low-key. Apart from the media interviews he has to attend, his presence is very low. He is more like a behind-the-scenes person at the helm of the team.

Therefore, after the handsome, cute and likable Jiang Rui joined, he was unexpectedly popular with the audience, attracted a large number of fans, and continued to be active on stage.

Rebellion really started to become popular from then on.

However, no one expected that Jiang Rui, who cried so sincerely and said that he would be with everyone for the rest of his life, would be so easily swayed by interests.

He left completely without looking back, causing Rebellion, which had just started to show signs of improvement, to fall back to the bottom.

"Okay, stop talking." Lu Chen spoke up to stop Jiang Xi.

Then he looked at Jiang Rui and said calmly, "I said that we can understand each other's future."

Jiang Rui looked up and said in surprise: "So, Captain, you are——"

"But I won't forgive you."

Jiang Rui was stunned.

“Everyone has the right to work towards a better future. Once you’ve chosen your own path, walk on it and don’t look back and think about it.”

Lu Chen raised his eyes and spoke slowly. His eyes were calm and without any ripples, as if he was looking at an unrelated stranger.

After a pause, he said softly, "I'm just speaking as a person. I hate being lied to. If you don't want to stay in Rebellion, you could have told me in advance instead of signing the contract and leaving with your luggage."

"I..." Jiang Rui's chest rose and fell, his voice stammering, not daring to look into Lu Chen's eyes again, "I'm... I'm sorry."

Jiang Xi next to him pointed and cursed: "That's right! Brother Lu has done so much for you! He should have fed a dog well, and look at you? What a jerk you are doing——"

"Jiang Xi!" Lu Chen turned around and glared helplessly.

The chattering powder keg was finally forced to stop.

"What are you doing! You are relying on your numbers to bully our Xiao Rui!" Sister Li was unhappy. She pulled Jiang Rui to block behind her, like an old hen whose cubs were bullied.

She put her hands on her hips and chest out, glaring at Lu Chen.

The next second, a thin figure rushed over at an incredibly fast speed before Sister Li could commit the crime.

He stretched out his hands, shielding Lu Chen behind him, and stared at Sister Li opposite him with his bottomless dark eyes without blinking.

It's full of protective meaning.

It seemed like he wouldn't let anyone come forward even a step.

Seeing Luo Chu suddenly appearing, everyone was stunned.

Lu Chen lowered his head and stared at the little head that was lower than his own. It was like a hen spreading its wings to protect its chicks.

He was stunned for a second, with delicate and tender feelings floating in his eyes accompanied by fragmented light, and then he pulled the child back with a smile.

On the opposite side, when Sister Li saw Luo Chu's face clearly, her eyes widened into big bells.

My mouth couldn't close.

This...this face!
What a cornucopia of beauty Rebellion is!

Later, Jiang Rui, who was holding back his tears, froze in the same way.

Unlike Sister Li's passionate gaze that was so stunning that she was stunned.

Jiang Rui was stunned with surprise, in disbelief, and with an indescribable sense of loneliness in his heart. He forced a smile and asked curiously:

"Who is this……?"

Luo Chu didn't move. His clear black and white eyes stared straight at the opposite side. Even when Lu Chen pulled him, he stubbornly pushed him away.

Don't let that aggressive agent get close to Lu Chen.

Later, Jiang Xi and others, as if waking up from a dream, reacted.

I was so moved that I burst into tears.

Jiang Rui, that ungrateful bastard! I took him away from home and gave him money, but he just ran away without saying a word.

Look at Luo Chu again!
You've only been here a few days, and you're already defending Captain Lu!

I went back home just because my husband was upset and said he hadn't bought anything.

He turned around and came back with a car full of belongings.

He didn't feel sorry for his multi-million luxury car at all and insisted on letting everyone use it - although he was stopped by Lu Chen.

But such generosity!
How much better than that runaway guy!

Lin Xuan and Jiang Xi, who came upon hearing the news, joined in the same speech and talked happily.

Especially when he saw the agent staring at Luo Chu without blinking, eager to make a move on his divine looks, and even left Jiang Rui aside.

The exhilarating pleasure of revenge.

Vanity bursts, just roll up your sleeves and brag:
"What are you looking at! This is our new member!"

"The old doesn't go away before the new comes. Only with Xiaochu did I realize how excellent a person can be!"

"She's prettier than you! She's more capable than you! Most importantly, she's kind and righteous, and she knows how to repay kindness. She's not something those ruthless people can compare to!"

Jiang Rui could hardly hold back his smile.

Her eyes were red, and if those little fans saw it, I don’t know how they would cry and feel heartbroken.

However, the pity that usually made everyone reluctant to leave suddenly seemed insignificant when compared with Luo Chu on the opposite side.

When faced with the truly stunning jade, who would have time to look at Jiang Rui?
He kept calling her Luo Chu on the left and on the right. She had a luxury car, a famous family, and a beautiful face that was so stunning that it made her feel ashamed of herself.

My own agent even tried to strike up a conversation with me several times.

Jiang Rui's face gradually became unbearable. After all, this was a child he had taken care of, even though he grew up to be a disgrace in the end.

But Lu Chen still retained his last bit of dignity.

"Okay, don't go too far." Lu Chen scolded in a low voice and signaled Lao Cha to take a few people back.

Pushed Luo Chu.

The child lowered his head and met the stubborn big dark eyes that were staring at him with his head tilted back, and shook his head firmly.

I won't leave no matter what.

I couldn't bear to show my authority as a captain to others.

Lu Chen could only helplessly let Luo Chu do as he pleased.

However, he stood firmly in front of Luo Chu, blocking Sister Li's jealous gaze that was following him and wanting to poach someone.

The low, hoarse voice returned to the cold and distant tone that kept people at a distance: "Today was an accident. Xie Gongqiu said that there would be a temporary replacement from the company. I didn't know you were coming."

Jiang Rui understood the subtext: If he had known, he would never have let you come.

"I...I asked Xiao Ji to let me take over..." Jiang Rui lowered his head in shame, "Originally, I should have finished the show with you, but..."

"No need to say more, it's all in the past." Lu Chen said calmly in a very calm voice: "Live well in the future, at least, you have to be worthy of your grandmother."

"Captain..." Jiang Rui's eyes turned red.

It's really Lu Chen.

Just this one sentence made me feel more painful and regretful than all the accusations from Jiang Xi and Lin Xuan before.

But...but he needs money.

It is difficult for a band to make a name for itself, unlike the mainstream industry in the entertainment industry. If he stays in Rebellion, he doesn't know when he will be able to make money.

But if he signs with the company, he will be the main seed player. He will enter the talent show in the near future. He has good looks, great singing skills, and the company's support. He will definitely debut at a high position and become very popular.

He can't afford it.

He must go.

The only mistake was that I was too young, wanted to escape, and chose the most wrong way to leave.

"Captain... I'm really, really sorry..." Jiang Rui couldn't hold back any longer and burst into tears in front of Lu Chen.

This is Lu Chen who pulled himself out of the quagmire!
He really…really didn’t think…that he would end up stabbing Lu Chen in the back and causing the current situation.

Lu Chen said nothing.

Staring at Jiang Rui who was crying sincerely, his brows slightly frowned, and suddenly, he seemed to understand something.

His breathing became heavier.

His eyes were extremely cold, and finally he let out a sigh of relief with a completely chilled heart.

Lu Chen said coldly: "Don't pretend, just tell me what your purpose is."

"I..." Jiang Rui stopped.

His pupils trembled slightly, and he lowered his head in shame, mumbling softly,

"Captain... can you... if someone asks me later... don't say that I left on my own initiative...?"

*
"What? So shameless?"

"Shit! I thought he really wanted to apologize!"

Jiang Xi and Lin Xuan, who had just prepared their musical instruments, exploded immediately.

One smashed the keyboard and the other swung the drumstick.

Lin Que crumpled up into a ball, hugged his guitar, and played the bass vigorously, expressing his anger through music.

Old Cha said nothing, sighed, turned his back and smoked.

Luo Chu still followed Lu Chen.

"Put down my drumsticks. Go swing your guitar if you're angry." Lu Chen glanced and slapped the lame and dishonest Jiang Xi on the back of his head.

Jiang Xi turned his head away angrily, not even looking at the drumstick that was snatched away, "Give him face! He ran away shamelessly and asked us not to tell anyone?"

"When he gets on that talent show, I'll print a giant banner and post it outside their production team!"

Lin Xuan angrily echoed, "Banner is not enough, we have to print 18,000 flyers! Let's hand them out one by one, once to the fans who visit the studio! Once to the show performances! I will block the outside of the venue and expose his true colors one by one!"

"...This is a good idea!" Jiang Xi clapped his hands excitedly.

Lin Xuan: "Tsk, do you think I learned this field promotion for nothing?"

Luo Chu slowly raised his eyes.

Think of a certain flyer that was so bad it didn't even have a name.

I paused for a second and thought: If it really happens, I must not let them do it. What a shitty aesthetic.

"Should I buy you an advertising screen that plays ads all day long?" Lu Chen laughed angrily and asked coldly.

Lin Xuan pondered: "This... is not impossible."

"It's just a little expensive." Jiang Xi added, caring about his boss's wallet, and shook his head sincerely: "It's not worth it to spend money on advertising for him."

Lu Chen raised his hand to scare the two of them.

Jiang Xi covered his head and jumped away angrily.

After looking at Jiang Rui who was tiptoeing to put things into the car, Lu Chen lowered his eyes and pulled Jiang Xi who was about to rush over again.

No longer speaking in a casual tone, his expression was complicated, and he sighed softly, "Alright, let's just forget about this."

"Why--"

"For his grandmother's sake." Lu Chen slowly raised his eyes, glanced at everyone, and said softly, "The old man hasn't had a good life for a few days. It's hard to have some peace..."

After a pause, he raised the corners of his lips slightly, and said in a controlled tone as if he saw through the soft-hearted nature of these people:
"Of course, if you can speak up, go ahead and post it. I won't stop you."

Because he really hates deception.

Once betrayed, it will never be used again.

For no reason, as if he had heard something, Luo Chu's pupils trembled slightly.

Again.

Vibration in pocket.

No more just pressing it.

As if he had found a perfect excuse to get away, Luo Chu raised his head and whispered, "I'm going to answer a phone call."

Then, under Lu Chen's surprised gaze, the little tail ran away with a click.

"Young Master Chu!" Qi Hui's excited voice came.

The decibel level is enough to blow the roof off.

Luo Chu quickly moved the phone away, his eyes full of annoyance.

"You'd better give me a legitimate reason to be crazy-"

"It's up! That stock! It's really gone up!"

"..."

"I listened to you and invested one thousand as well, and made a full profit of one hundred thousand! Master Chu, you invested two hundred thousand, which means a net profit of twenty million!"

"...So?" Luo Chu gritted his teeth and lost his view of Qi Hui, who had been noisy all morning, as a capable employee.

"So we got rich!" Qi Hui was happy for Luo Chu from the bottom of his heart, like a demented child, he couldn't stop muttering.

Then I heard Luo Chu's cold voice: "Are you free?"

Qi Hui: “…Ah?”

Luo Chu: "Have you finished the investigation?"

Qi Hui: "Done...Done."

Luo Chu: “…”

Luo Chu held his breath and said angrily: "Wait! I will send you a few more companies!"

She seems to be too idle!
　Lu Chen was overjoyed: Did you see it? Did you see it? Chuchu is protecting me!
　　Qi the worker: ...help!
