Chapter 208
Lu Lixing lifted his eyelids. “Call me brother-in-law. I’ll help you settle this matter.”
Lu Lixing didn’t dislike Ji Chengxi. He had that sunshine and rashness a teen his age would have.
Carrying some doubts, Ji Chengxi asked, “You? Help me solve it? Who are you to say so?”
Actually, in his heart, he didn’t really take it seriously. Someone who just handled documents in the company; if he wasn’t an assistant at most he would just be someone on a managerial level. How much can he help?
“Lu Lixing.”
Ji Chengxi froze for a while. That name sounded vaguely familiar to him.
Last time, at that recruitment fair at his school, he seemed to have heard this name from there.
But he couldn’t remember it in such a short while.
Wait a minute…
Ji Chengxi’s ‘bright light’ had appeared.
Previously, didn’t the bastard who liked the same girl as he have a dad who worked in the Lu Corporation? He confidently promised the girl that he could guarantee her a spot in the Lu Corporation so he managed to succeed in winning over the girl’s heart.
From what he remembered, doesn’t the boss of the Lu Corporation also have the same surname “Lu”? And it just so happens that this guy in front of him had the same surname and was also called Lu Lixing.
Ji Chengxi choked.
“You’re that boss of the Lu Corporation?”
Lu Lixing nodded his head.
Ji Chengxi’s expression froze. He looked at Ji Qingqing and exclaimed, “Sis, we’re biological siblings. It’s you who brought me up. Your affairs are mine. My matters are yours. This is what? This is a family matter! There’s no need to bring strangers in. We can resolve this ourselves. Am I right, brother-in-law?”
***
Ji Chengxi already had a slight impression of Lu Lixing
There was no other reason. It was mainly because the Lu Corporation brand was so well-known. Since the beginning, entering their company was the goal students from his school strove to after graduation.
Every year, the Lu Corporation would visit his school to recruit students. Even though school recruitments didn’t concern Ji Chengxi for the time being, when everyone talked about it, he inadvertently learned about this company and at the same time learned about Lu Lixing.
Since Lu Lixing was able to expand the Lu Corporation into its current scale and brand recognition, then he certainly must be skilled.
A while back, Ji Chengxi knew a female senior who worked at Lu Corporation. Occasionally, they would chat about some rumors regarding Lu Lixing, such as: for many years there were no scandals about him, that he treated his employees well, had a good business foresight, was a very charming man, was low-key and introverted, and had nearly no bad reviews. These were enough for one to tell that he had good character and was a person worthy for one to entrust their future to.
His Sis’ eye for picking boyfriends had finally improved. The previous bastards she picked before; what kind of shit were they?!
At the side, Ji Qingqing eyed him skeptically. “You sure called him brother-in-law so easily.”
“Is there a better option?” Ji Chengxi sat by her side and spoke in a serious manner. “Look at you. You’re usually so busy with work plus you also need to run around because of my matter. As your younger brother, I can’t be too much of a jerk and always trouble you! Brother-in-law said that he can help me settle this. This matter to him is just like lifting a finger. How can I let you continue to worry about such a small matter like this? Am I right, brother-in-law?”
Brother-in-law Lu nodded his head, agreeing with Ji Chengxi’s words.
Ji Qingqing couldn’t go on listening to him. “Right now, he’s still not your brother-in-law so tone it down a little.”
“Isn’t this just a matter of time? Brother-in-law, the matter regarding the nude photo, I’ll entrust it to you. My nude photo must never be circulated. If not, I’ll definitely won’t get a girlfriend in the future!”
“Explain that matter clearly to me.”
Actually, to call this problem big wasn’t right. It wasn’t big but calling it small wasn’t right either. Two months ago, Ji Qingqing was caught up in a lawsuit and was busy enough herself. As a university student, Ji Chengxi couldn’t help much. Just as he was as anxious as ants on a pan, he heard two people insulting his Sis, saying that she deserved it; that the heavens have eyes. They even said that she looked wild and with one glance didn’t look like a decent woman. While they were chatting, they had lewd smiles on their faces. Who knew what dirty thoughts they were thinking? Having heard them, Ji Chengxi with that ill temperament of his, used a brick to directly teach those two what it means for “Heaven to have eyes and justice prevails.”
Though he felt rather refreshed after standing up for his Sis, they ended up getting hospitalized. Although both sides suffered losses, it was indeed Ji Chengxi who attacked first.
In this society, the person who attacked first was more accountable for the crime. Those two people in reality didn’t want to offend Ji Chengxi and make the matter blow up. So after reaching a private agreement, they had requested for Ji Chengxi to fork out their 50,000 yuan in medical bills, then this matter would be over.
Later on, Ji Chengxi borrowed that 50,000 yuan, believing that the company was a legitimate money lending company since it was advertised on television. Never did he expect that those two months of compound interest would end up actually snowballing into more than 3 million yuan.
After quietly listening to him, Lu Lixing pondered for a moment then nodded. “I’ve understood the situation.”
“Brother-in-law, are you confident?”
Lu Lixing raised his brows. “Or, you think you can still find someone who is more confident than me?”
At this very moment, Ji Chengxi felt that his brother-in-law was super reliable!
