“Alright, i understand.” Jiang Yan said.” We didn’t come here to chat with you guys today.” She looked at Li Ze. “i heard that you’re also interested in buying the land in the West of the city. You definitely can’t take it alone. What do you think of a collaboration?” Jiang Yan then looked at Lu Huai. “Since you’re here, care to have a share as well?”

When it came to business, Lu Huai returned to his usual cold expression. “It’ll be good for your two families to take this piece of land. If you include me, you’ll have to give up some of the profits. I’ve already told Li Ze that 1 don’t have any plans to participate in this auction, 1 only hope that Pei Xin will come with me.”

Pei Xin looked at Lu Huai blankly.

She didn’t understand why Lu Huai would use her as an exchange condition.

What did she have that was worth to Lu Huai?

Lu Huai seemed to have noticed Pei Xin’s puzzled gaze. He looked at Pei Xin. “I know you have a lot of questions right now. Can 1 take you somewhere to talk? Alone? Perhaps we can work together.”

“Alright.” Pei Xin hesitated for a moment before nodding.

The corners of Lu Huai’s mouth curled up unconsciously.

He looked at Li Ze. “Then i’ll have to trouble you to provide us with a private room. 1 have some things that I can only say to Pei Xin.”

Li Ze was frustrated.

However, this was Pei Xin’s request, so he could only agree.

Lu Huai and Pei Xin went to an office alone.

Pei Xin suddenly jittery when it was just the two of them.

“Why did you give up that piece of land?” she asked Lu Huai. “Is there something wrong with that piece of land?”

She was now working under Jiang Yan, and this land happened to be the project she was in charge of.

If Lu Huai knew that there was something wrong with this piece of land and that was why he did not participate, then she would also persuade Jiang Yan to give up on this piece of land.

Lu Huai shook his head. “It is a very good piece of land. It will also be the economic center of Haicheng in the future. It can be used to build a business empire and school districts. The future returns will be very high.”

Seeing that Lu Huai was serious and did not seem to be lying, Pei Xin was even more confused.

“Then why did you give it up for me?” she asked.

She didn’t think that she had a very high position in Lu Huai’s heart. She didn’t think that she could even make Lu Huai give up this piece of land.

Lu Huai curled his lips. “Because 1 don’t want the Lu Corporation to make money. There’s a reason why I said I’d give up this piece of land in exchange for you to return with me.”

When Pei Xin heard his words, her shoulders relaxed. As expected, this was in line with Lu Huai’s personality.

She did not dare to hope that Lu Huai would have feelings for her.

“I don’t want the Lu Corporation to earn this money. I’ve been investigating Lu Li and Pei Yu.” Lu Huai said.

“According to the information 1 found, they founded a new company without telling me, poached many of the Lu Corporation’s customers, and even set up a private factory.”

Pei Xin frowned. “Five years ago, he didn’t have a factory. I didn’t know about this.”

Five years ago, she and Lu Li were still a couple and there were no secrets between them.

Although Lu Li sometimes complained that all the power of the Lu Family was in Lu Huai’s hands, he only wanted to marry her and live a happy life with her.

His biggest ambition was to work in the company in order to support her in the future.

Five years had passed and Lu Li had changed so much. He had changed from being carefree to being ambitious.

Pei Xin couldn’t help but think, was it because he was with Ling Xue? Did Ling Xue want Lu Li to have more power?

Lu Huai nodded. “His plan was carried out two years ago. According to my investigation, Ling Xue is also involved, but she does not have a direct say in things.”

Lu Huai looked at Pei Xin.

“There is a fact that you may have noticed. The Lu Li of the past has changed.

“When he was with you in the past, he didn’t used to act like that. He had principles.

“He’s been bewitched by Ling Xue as years passed. His behavior is becoming more and more like his biological mother.

“So Pei Xin, I need your help. Help me expel Lu Li and his mother, Zhou Jing, from the Lu Family.”

Pei Xin looked at Lu Huai blankly.

Lu Li’s identity had always been a sore spot for him..
