Step aside! My Demon CEO

"Is grandpa at home with father?" Lu Xiujie asked the butler.

The butler lowered his head respectfully and replied, "The general is in the study. The master hasn't come back yet. He should be back by lunchtime."

After listening, Lu Xiujie walked towards old master lu's study.

Since Old Master Lu retired, he couldn't go out often because of his legs and feet. He read books at home, studied paintings, or raised flowers, and occasionally read buddhism to pass the time.

He was already half the person who had stepped into the coffin, and the only one who was worried was this only grandson.

Lu Xiujie quietly pushed the door open and entered. The old man was sitting on a soft rattan chair, wearing a pair of reading glasses and holding a thick book of documentary literature in his hand.

He was old, but his hearing was very good. He was as sharp as when he was young, and nothing could escape his eyes and ears. Hearing Lu Xiujie's approaching footsteps, she looked up at him slightly.

He put the small goose feather bookmarks on the page he happened to see, closed the book and put it on the table.

Then he took off the pair of glasses. When he took off the glasses, everything in front of him became blurry. Lu Xiujie was not very clear as he walked towards him. He could only see the general outline of him, which was exactly like what he looked like when he was young.

Handsome and powerful, calm and introverted, Lu Xiujie's temperament was indeed inherited from him, and like him, he had a strong sense of patriotism. Lu Xiujie wanted to be an outstanding soldier and serve the country. It was the same as when he was young, but when he was old, what was the use of this glory to him? Not only could he not be brought into the coffin, but no one would remember him. It was just that his glorious deeds would be written on the tombstone, but so what? Even if there were descendants to admire him, he would not know.

In his life in the army, he never regretted it, but his ambition no longer existed. Now that he was old, he was no longer as brave as when he was young. He only hoped that his descendants would be safe and sound. He did not provoke injuries and pain like him, and live a miserable life in old age.

"Grandpa, don't keep reading. The doctor said your eyes need to rest." Lu Xiujie walked over until he was close enough for the old man to see him clearly.

Now that her eyesight had dropped so much, as soon as she took off her glasses, she could not see anything clearly. He sighed for a long time. "If I don't look now, I'm afraid I won't have time in the future."

His body had always been strong, but in the end, he was old. It was impossible not to be satisfied with his old age. In addition to these legs, he was also old physically and mentally.

Lu Xiujie helped him up and sat in the wheelchair. Although Old Master Lu's left foot was fitted with a prosthetic, it was still extremely inconvenient to walk. There were countless injuries on his body, and the war in his youth left scars of all sizes. Of course, in his prime, he couldn't have much effect on his body. Now, the older he was, the more he felt the strain.

"The weather is good today. Let's go to the back garden." Old Master Lu said. When he looked at the sun, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and the glare was too harsh to adapt.

Especially in the study, he liked to close the doors and windows tightly, not letting in any light at all. He turned on a small table lamp. The older he got, the more eccentric he became. Lu Xiujie had reminded him more than once to read less, but he still didn't listen.

It was inevitable to be lonely at home alone. His wife died early, and he only had Lu Tianloong as his only son. Although Lu Tianloong was also free at home now, and the company had been completely left to Lu Xiujie to deal with, he was always busy with social engagements, and often came home drunk.

Old Master Lu could only ask this grandson to come back to accompany him, but Lu Xiujie had been even busier since he took over the company. The only good thing was that the three of them had a better relationship with each other than before. At least Lu Xiujie was no longer at odds with his father.

The back garden of the Lu Family was very big, with many flowers and trees planted, and specially hired people to maintain and manage it.

Along the cement path, it was early spring, and the flowers were in full bloom. Many kinds of flowers had already appeared, and butterflies were flying around.

Lu Xiujie seemed to be in a much better mood. Enjoying the spring breeze and the fragrance of flowers in the air, the gloom slowly dissipated.

When he was young, he only kissed his grandfather. Because his relationship with his father was not good, the only person he could rely on was his grandfather. He respected and loved him.

In the blink of an eye, he found that grandpa was already old, and he gave his family too little. His life no longer belonged to him since he joined the army. How much time could he have to spend with his grandfather in the garden and chat like this in the future?

Lu Xiujie suddenly felt a touch of sadness in his heart. Looking at his grandfather, even if he was once a powerful figure in North Coast, he could not change the passing time. No one could resist the years.

In the backyard, there were chirping birds all around. The sun shone through the tender green leaves, and the light cast on the ground was mottled. Old Master Lu narrowed his eyes and lay comfortably in the wheelchair.

Lu Xiujie's thoughts drifted away. Seeing that he had not spoken for a long time, the old man opened his eyes and saw the loss on his face that was hard to hide.

Old Master Lu's slightly sharp eyes swept over them. Although they were cloudy, they could clearly see Lu Xiujie's sad face and asked, "Xiujie, what's on your mind?"

"No, grandpa." Lu Xiujie immediately changed his smile and replied. However, no matter how deep the smile on his face was, it could not hide the silence in his eyes.

"You kid, can you lie to me?" Old Master Lu had seen lu xiujie grow up since he was a child, and he knew this grandson's character best.

At this age, before he could settle down his life, the old man was worried about him in his heart. Before, Xiujie accepted the arrangement of his family and was willing to marry into the Xia Family, but after Xia Yujia went back on his word, the matter was over.

It was just that the only girl that Xiujie had ever cared about was Xia Nuan. Old Master Lu couldn't figure out what kind of charm a divorced woman with a child had that would make his grandson miss it.

He had only seen Xia Nuan once, and he was indeed extremely handsome and a little smart. At that time, Xia Nuan had reached an agreement with him, and she had also done it. She had bought herself a job opportunity. Now that she was still working at the Dingsheng Group, she heard that she was still very capable.

"That Xia Nuan, if you really like her, take her home and show her to me." Old Master Lu looked ahead and said faintly.

Lu Xiujie was surprised that his grandfather would say such a thing. When he knew about Xia Nuan's existence, he had interfered with him. Otherwise, Xia Nuan would not have come to dingsheng to work. In the eyes of others, Xia Nuan was nothing but beautiful, and he was not worthy of being the successor of the Lu Family. However, he was fond of xia nuan.

A glint of hope suddenly lit up in Lu Xiujie's eyes, and then it dimmed again. "Grandpa, I can't be with her."

Old Master Lu had always sent people to pay attention to Xia Nuan. In addition to taking care of her mother who was unable to walk, Xia Nuan had been fighting with his ex-husband for the custody of the child. Xiujie was kind to her and only liked her. Old Master Lu actually thought a lot. If Xiujie really liked this woman, he didn't mind giving Xia Nuan a chance, but before she became the wife of their Lu Family, he would definitely test Xia Nuan again.

But hearing Xiujie's reaction, Old Master Lu could not help but feel surprised.

"Aren't you obsessed with this girl? Although it's not good enough for you to be her, your father and I are not that old fashioned. Don't worry." Old Master Lu's words meant that he had compromised again.

In fact, Lu Tianloong had a very good impression of xia nuan. Xia nuan was the daughter of North Coast's famous family. He had also sent someone to investigate what happened three years ago. Now that she was separated from the Xia Family, she was living on her own efforts.

And in the company, she relied on her own strength to climb up step by step. What she had now, was all she had fought for, without relying on anyone. And he had never received any special treatment because of Lu Xiujie.
