50: Chapter 50 Daddy, Mommy is About to be Taken Away by Another Man

50 -50 Daddy, Mommy is About to be Taken Away by Another Man

When Jian Si and Lu Yanbai arrived at the Tang Palace Night Banquet, Ji Mingche had already been waiting for quite some time.

Today, Ji Mingche’s noble nose was adorned with a pair of gold-wire glasses, and his plain white shirt and black trousers made him appear even more youthful than at their last meeting, somewhat reminiscent of his high school days.

The person before her inevitably overlapped with the one in her mind.

Jian Si seemed to rediscover the joys of her childhood, her eyes brimming with laughter, “Ah Che, didn’t we agree to meet at half past eleven?

It’s not time yet!”

Ji Mingche teased her with a smile, “I’m not used to making girls wait.” He then shifted his gaze to Lu Yanbai, “Is this your son?”

Jian Si quickly pulled Lu Yanbai over to introduce him, “This is my son, Lu Yanbai.

Xiao Bai, this is the neighbor brother from Mommy’s childhood, say hello to uncle.”

“Xiao Bai, hello!

I didn’t know your Mommy would bring you here today, so I didn’t buy you a gift.” Ji Mingche took a piece of candy out of his pocket, “Do you like candy?

Uncle has candy for you!”

Thinking that this man was here to steal his Mommy from him, Lu Yanbai regarded Ji Mingche with hostility.

Pouting his little mouth, he replied rudely, “I won’t eat it!

Daddy taught me since I was young not to take things from strangers.”

Ji Mingche kept his cool, “Uncle is your Mommy’s friend, not a stranger.”

“Daddy says that often those who hurt you are the ones you’re only vaguely familiar with.” Lu Yanbai huffed coldly, his little head tilting arrogantly.

The atmosphere turned tense.

The smile on Ji Mingche’s face stiffened.

His hand holding the candy hung awkwardly in mid-air, neither retracting nor extending, his embarrassment was extreme.

Jian Si’s lips twitched involuntarily, wishing she could smack both Lu Youting and Lu Yanbai.

How had she not realized that Lu Yanbai listened so well to Lu Youting?

Now it was all Daddy said this, Daddy said that.

Jian Si took the candy from his hand, unwrapped it, and put it into her mouth, speaking up to diffuse the awkwardness, “Ah Che, don’t blame him, he’s not well, he can’t eat candy!

I like it, so I’ll eat it!”

Ji Mingche graciously took the opportunity to move on, taking out two more pieces of candy from his pocket and smiling, “I actually bought these especially for you!

Do you remember when you were upset as a kid, I would always buy you three White Rabbit candies to cheer you up?”

His words instantly pulled Jian Si into her memories.

Long-buried memories flooded in like a tide.

“Of course, I remember!

I also remember the first time you gave me White Rabbit candy, it was the day my mother passed away.

I was very sad and locked myself in my room.

That night, you stayed with me, and it was the first time you gave me candy.

I will always remember that taste, it was so sweet, truly the most delicious thing in the world.

That’s why I developed a habit, whenever I feel down, I like to eat one.”

“Haha, you remember!

You definitely don’t know that the White Rabbit candy was the last gift my mother gave me before she left, there was only one jar of it and I treasured it, eating just one piece a day.

Later I gave them all to you!”

The happiness of their childhood made Jian Si laugh heartily, “Really?

Why didn’t you say so earlier?

If you had, I wouldn’t have eaten them!”

Ji Mingche didn’t mind at all, “It’s okay!

Things can be bought again, but friendship can’t be bought with money.”

“Since you shared your most precious candy with me, then I’m treating you to dinner today!” Both of them were very happy recalling old times, and it had been quite a while since Jian Si felt so relaxed.

Ji Mingche asked in return, “Weren’t you supposed to be treating anyway?”

“Haha…” Jian Si laughed merrily, “Sorry, I forgot!

Next time, I’ll treat again!

I’ll bring my bestie along and introduce you two.”

“Great!

I’ve been worried about not having friends in Jiangcheng…”

The two chatted as if lost in their own world.

Lu Yanbai felt forgotten off to the side, experiencing the sour sensation of his Mommy being taken away, his little face turning red with anger.

He immediately took out his phone and sent a message to Lu Youting.

“Daddy, come quickly, Mommy’s going to be snatched away!”

Seeing no response from Lu Youting, he sneakily snapped a photo and sent it.

“We’re at the Tang Palace Night Banquet Li Bai private room, Daddy, you need to come quickly and help me get Mommy back.”

At that moment, Lu Group was in turmoil and Lu Youting had no time to check his phone messages.

Lu Ya handed the latest information collected to Lu Youting, “Boss, I just had people investigate the latest chip information about to be released by Nantian Group.

Their chip didn’t pass the final inspection at all.

Their sudden announcement to launch is just an attempt to climb up by stepping on us when our stock prices are low.

They’ve priced their chip at a record low, likely aiming for a price war.

And they have successfully attracted a lot of partners.

If they manage to sign contracts, it could have a significant impact on us again.”

It was clear to any discerning eye that Nantian Group was embracing a strategy of mutual damage, seizing this chance to severely trample Lu Group.

Truly the lowest of the low.

Lu Youting flipped through the documents in his hand, pulled at the corner of his mouth, and that smile, compared to the chill in his eyes, was several degrees more unsettling.

“Trying to cut corners?” he said, slamming the folder shut, and declared in a deep voice, “Go see who approved their listing documents, find the relevant evidence of their crime!

Since he wants to play, I’ll play along till the very end.”

Lu Ya nodded, ready to carry out the instructions.

Suddenly, there was a rapid knocking at the office door.

“Come in.”

At Lu Youting’s command, Shen Qing pushed the door open and placed a laptop in front of him: “Boss, something’s gone wrong at Nantian Group’s chip launch event.”

Lu Youting and Lu Ya looked at each other and turned their gaze to the laptop simultaneously.

“The relevant department received an anonymous file claiming that Nantian Group’s newly released chips were substandard.

The market approval has been retracted, and the personnel involved in the approval are now in custody, with further investigations underway.”

Nantian Group’s launch event, halfway through, was forced to a halt, ending in a humiliating retreat, and quickly became a hot topic online.

“Damn, what unscrupulous merchants!

Daring to sell stuff that’s not up to standard?

Do they think we’re all fools?”

“If they don’t improve their craft and keep trying to game the system, I’m definitely never using their company’s chips again.”

“Lu Group is a big company.

No matter their personal lives, at least the things they produce are trustworthy in quality.

From now on, I’m only buying computers and phones with Lu Group chips.”

Amidst the netizens’ scorn, Nantian Group’s stock price plummeted like a rocket, with all partners cancelling their collaborations.

Lu Group’s stock miraculously began to rise.

This dramatic turn of events left both Lu Youting and Lu Ya dumbfounded.

Lu Ya, in astonishment, asked, “Who passed the evidence to the relevant department?

How could this person be faster than us?

They’ve really done us a huge favor.”

Shen Qing smiled, a secret dancing in his eyes, “Guess?

Do you know this person?”

“We know this person?” Lu Ya racked his brains in thought, but still couldn’t come up with an answer.

“C?”

Lu Youting narrowed his eyes, and although it was a question, his tone was full of certainty.

Shen Qing smiled like a blooming flower, ecstatic, “Yes, it’s C!

I traced the IP all the way to Zhongshan Road.

Only C has the ability to find his evidence in such a short time.”

Lu Ya was at a loss for words; the enigma of C was beyond his grasp.

“What exactly does C mean?

On one hand, sabotaging our launch event, and on the other, helping us out with our rival?

Are they a friend or foe?”

Shen Qing speculated, “Doesn’t seem like a foe!”

Lu Ya pressed on, “Then a friend?”

Shen Qing tugged at the corner of his mouth with a sheepish grin, “Uh…

hard to say!”

They discussed for a long time without a conclusion, growing ever more curious about C’s identity.

At that moment, Lu Youting’s phone buzzed with a message.

Another message from Lu Yanbai.

“Daddy, when are you coming?

Mommy and this uncle have been talking from childhood till now, if you don’t come soon, they’ll talk all the way to getting married!”

Above the message was a photo.

In the photo, Jian Si was eating White Rabbit candies, her eyes smiling into slits as she looked at the man beside her.

The man watched her tenderly, also holding a White Rabbit candy in his hand.

A storm began to swirl in the depths of Lu Youting’s dark eyes, and he said coldly, “You haven’t had lunch yet, have you?

The crisis has been averted, I’ll take you out for lunch.”

Feeling their boss’s fury, neither Shen Qing nor Lu Ya wanted to join, but they dared not refuse and could only stiffly agree.
