Chapter 1112 – Bet

One more week passed by, and it was time for the second project.
The entire week Lu Lijun and Noah spent working on the project that still had three weeks to go and ignored the one that was coming in a week.

”Tonight, we are leaving for England, ” Lu Lijun informed.

Xiao Min, who looked through the current project file, found it better than the last one but still was not happy about it.

”Like this, we will ruin Lu Corporation ’s reputations, ” Xiao Min commented as he put the file back on the table.

”Isn ’t it better than the last one? ” Lu Lijun asked, being ready to go to the venue.

Xiao Min frowned.

”Before saying anything, you should follow the instructions that must have been given to you about letting me do what I want, ” Lu Lijun spoke.

”What if we lose it too? ” Xiao Min asked coldly.
”Well, looks like we will. ”

”Then you should relax, ” Lu Lijun said calmly.

”I want to, but I ’m worried to see how you are up to ruining my boss ’s hard work, ” Xiao Min countered.

Lu Lijun finally turned to him and looked into his eyes, ”The ones you called your boss, are mine and no one can worry for them more than me. ”

Xiao Min didn ’t back down.
”Then show it through actions instead of creating more troubles. ”

”You can look forward to more troubles, ” Lu Lijun said.

Before Xiao Min could say anything, Noah, who observed these two silently, finally spoke.
”We are getting late. ”

The three left and reached the venue.
Just like before, everyone was there.
This time Wen participated too, and the result was in their favor.

Lu Corporation lost again.
Xiao Min was upset about the expectation but hid it really well.

Just like before, people came to console him.

”This one was better than the last one. ”

”You will keep improving.
Be patient. ”

”Don ’t be discouraged. ”

Mr.
Wen came to him.
”You sure improved more than last time, but still, it lacked a lot.
Again I ’ll say my assistant would do better than this. ”

”I ’ll do better next time, ” said Lu Lijun.

”Are you sure you can? I expected more from you at least this time, but…. ” Mr.
Wen sighed.

”There is no harm in trying, ” Lu Lijun said politely.

”You don ’t look serious about anything, ” said Mr.
Wen.

”I ’m trying with what I can, ” Lu Lijun replied.
He was calm and didn ’t look bothered with a single thing anyone said, and neither did the losing project once again bother him.

”I ’m selling Lu Corporations shares.
But it looks like if I do, you won ’t be able to handle it.
Looking at your attitude, I ’m sure you don ’t even care a bit less. ”

”Does Mr.
Wen expect me to cry over it? ” Lu Lijun asked calmly, but there was something in his sight that was difficult to understand.

”I ’m feeling bad for my friend who would lose a lot for his incapable son when I wanted to give him a chance. ”

”Whatever Mr.
Wen would do, I can only try my best, ” Lu Lijun said again calmly.

”Best? ” Mr.
Wen chuckled.
”Your way of working best is too slow.
I wish you were faster so there would have been fun. ”

Lu Lijun didn ’t react, and Mr.
Wen spoke again.
”How about the bet? ”

”I don ’t mind, ” said Lu Lijun.

”I don ’t know if you are playing of it ’s just your overconfidence but let ’s check it, ” said Mr.
Wen.

”For troubling Mr.
Wen and hurting his daughter, I can at least accept the bet and try my best to make Mr.
Wen feels good, ” Lu Lijun said.

Mentioning his daughter and hurting her looks so easy for Lu Lijun as if he didn ’t regret it.
Mr.
Wen sure didn ’t like it and would never let go of a chance to teach him a lesson.

”In the next three weak, there will be one more such event.
The ones who win the projects are mostly the giants with strong western partners, and there is no chance for others until you offer something different from usual high-profit things.
Win that project, and I ’ll forgive you. ”

”I accept, ” said Lu Lijun confidently.

”You don ’t like to hear it all, don ’t you? ” Mr.
Wen sighed.

”If you can ’t, I ’ll sell all the shares of Lu Corporation to your rival and make sure you will never be the President of Lu corporation.
Whatever loss Lu Corporation will bear would be on you, and from that moment onward, you should never step into the Lu Corporation. ”

Lu Lijun was calm, hearing it, and Mr.
Wen spoke, ”I can give you a chance to back down.
You can reject the bet. ”

”Lus don ’t get back on their words, ” said Lu Lijun.

”Lus never acts overconfident too by keeping others on the verge of losing everything, ” Mr.
Wen countered.

”I ’ll try to be like them, ” Lu Lijun said politely.

Xiao Min was surprised with how this stubborn guy was so calm in front of everyone here when they mocked him indirectly, and this Mr.
Wen wasn ’t leaving a single chance to make him feel down.
In the office, when he said something to Lu Lijun, he was ready to argue but here, he was like an obedient young guy who is willing to learn more.

’What ’s with him? ’ Xiao Min thought and looked at Noah, who was calm too and didn ’t look bothered with how Mr.
Wen was belittling his friend.

So many thoughts ran in Xiao Min ’s mind.
’Even though they are friends, shouldn ’t he feel something about Lu Lijun as his boss? It seems like my boss has made a mistake by trusting these two.
He is not like the previous boss Lu Qiang at all when I thought he would at least have some qualities of him. ’

”Fine then.
I ’ll remember my words.
You remember yours, ” Mr.
Wen said.

”I will, ” Lu Lijun assured.

Mr.
Wen left, and Xiao Min turned to Lu Lijun.
”Are you sure about the bet? ”

”No, ” Lu Lijun replied.

”Then why did you accept it, ” Xiao Min said as he frowned inside.

”If we were to be sure about the result of the bet, then we wouldn ’t call it a bet, ” said Lu Lijun as they stepped ahead to leave.

”If we lose….. ”

”We can just try our best, ” came the same reply from Lu Lijun, and Xiao Min sighed.

Noah smiled lightly as Lu Lijun answered the same every time to Mr.
Wen and Xiao Min and how annoyed they must have felt with it.

——

As Usual Jiang Yuyan got all the updates of the project and how Lu Lijun lost it.
It was the second time in a row and she didn ’t know what to think about it, not being able to understand what went in his mind.

She called Xiao Min.
”How is he? ”

”As usual unbothered with the loss, ” Xiao Min replied, annoyance clear in his voice.

Jiang Yuyan could guess something serious must have happened to make Xiao Min lose his composure.

”What happened? ” she asked.

Xiao Min couldn ’t hide it from his boss as it was something serious and would affect the entire Lu Corporation and his boss ’s hard work for so many years.

Xiao Min told her everything but Jiang Yuyan was calm.
”Understood. ”

”Boss won ’t stop him? ” he asked.

”He already accepted the bet so let him do it, ” she replied calmly.

”Boss…. ”

”You should take a break too.
Why don ’t you go to assistant Li so your mood would be better, ” Jiang Yuyan teased to calm him down, knowing how one stubborn man from her family must have troubled him.

”I am fine, ” Xiao Min assured the next moment.
His boss sure knew his weakness.

”Help him with what he needs.
This project is difficult so he will need your help. ”

”Do I have any other option? ” Xiao Min mumbled and said, ”I will.
The boss should rest assured. ”

Jiang Yuyan hung up the call and went through both the project file copies.
She understood what she could and decided not to meddle in anything.
