Chapter 109 My familys Zhenzhen is pregnant (2)

After the male lead returned, he would contact these businesses that had been suppressed by Lu Beichuan for the past several years. Working together with a common purpose, the male lead and these companies would encircle and then annihilate the Lus business. In no time at all, the Lus business and their monopoly on various industries would be destroyed.

Seeing that Lu Beichuan had the same attitude as his novel self, Ye Zhens heart rose up in alarm. Wasnt this the same as digging a hole for yourself to help your enemies? He couldnt be allowed to continue this behavior of courting disaster!

She couldnt resist saying, Cant you take in those people that are genuinely capable to be your subordinates?

Ye Zhen knew that the novels Lu Beichuan was obstinate. If it wasnt for the male leads halo in the later stage of the novel, Lu Beichuan, who had the ability to back up his unyielding personality, wouldnt have been defeated under normal circumstances. Without his halo, the male lead wouldnt have been able to destroy Lu Beichuans company.

Lu Beichuan was silent for a moment before he indifferently said to the other person on the phone, Lets stop here. Ill call you later.

He put his phone and looked at Ye Zhen. He gently asked, Whats wrong?

Ye Zhen didnt know anything about the business world, but she knew that the person mentioned in Lu Beichuans call, Qin Shao, would become one of the biggest threats to the Lus company.

Qin Shao had started from nothing. In the short period of five years, he had become a multimillionaire. He could be considered a legend. If it wasnt because of the current financial crisis, he wouldnt have fallen to the point of having his company acquired.

Qin Shao is quite a capable person. Its better to gain an ally than an enemy. Theres no deep enmity between the two of you. Unless you can be absolutely sure that you can destroy him, why make him your enemy? Wouldnt it better to cultivate someone that will give you a helping hand when you need it than make an enemy?

Lu Beichuans gaze dimmed. Youve heard of him?

Ye Zhen nodded.

She knew that this Qin Shao was very capable. He was able to survive under Lu Beichuans repeated pressure. In the end, working together with Lin Zhan, he had given Lu Beichuan a fatal blow.

And, this enemity had all started from what Lu Beichuan had done when he acquired his company.

Qin Shao was such a big threat that Ye Zhen felt she had to warn Lu Beichuan.

I heard my dad mention him. Thats all. I dont have any other intentions. I just think it would be a waste to overlook someone like him. Right now, hes in a difficult spot. If you help him now, it would cost you nothing. Helping others is the same as helping yourself. Having another friend is the same as having another option. Why cut off your own escape path?

Lu Beichuan looked at Ye Zhens bright and clear eyes. After a pause, he quietly said, Okay, Ill listen to you.

Early next morning, Lu Beichuan went downstairs and saw Mother Lu ordering the servants to tidy up the villa.

Mom, is there a guest coming today?

Last nights discussion had left a bad taste in Mother Lus mouth. She was still feeling upset with her son. I invited a few friends over to drink tea and exchange some stories about our experiences.

Experiences? Lu Beichuan furrowed his brow.

You dont need to concern yourself with that. Just go to work. Mother Lu didnt have time to bother with him. Aunty Yue, is Zhenzhens breakfast done yet?

Aunty Yue was a servant that had been sent over from the Lus ancestral home yesterday. She had a lot of experience with taking care of pregnant women.

Aunty Yue poked her head out of the kitchen and said with a smile, Almost done.

When Ye Zhen came downstairs, Aunty Yue served the breakfast that she had prepared.

Lu Beichuan was probably feeling that his presence was a bit superfluous right now. He kissed Ye Zhen, reminded her to take care of herself, and went to work.

Zhenzhen ah, eat breakfast first. I invited a few of my friends over to drink tea this afternoon. While theyre here, Ill introduce you to them.

Drink tea?

Just a couple of my old friends. You dont need to worry. You can just sit on the side and listen.

Listen? Perplexed, Ye Zhen paused.
