Too Late to Regret, She’s Now With the Big Boss - Chapter 88

“Honey, I haven’t eaten yet. Keep me company,” Lu Jingchen said as he held Ye Qianqian on his lap.

“I’m already full,” Ye Qianqian blinked and replied. She knew he wouldn’t let it go, and as it happened, she wasn’t completely full either.

“Didn’t my sweetheart say that receiving my messages would make her eat an extra bowl of rice? Now that you’re seeing me in person, shouldn’t you have another bowl?” Lu Jingchen tapped her nose playfully.

“My husband is so handsome, I could always eat a little more even if I’m full. Go wash your hands first, I’ll wait for you,” Ye Qianqian said with a giggle.

Having access to bullet comments was great, knowing his whereabouts and his mood allowed her to eat and drink without a worry.

A month ago, Ye Qianqian might have still been resentful, grumbling indignantly.

How could someone like Song Yuntao and Ye Qingyan, both morally flawed, be the main characters?

Was it because their taboo feelings for an adoptive brother and their unrestrained, ambiguous relationships with others stirred up more excitement in people’s hearts???

But when she found out that the male and female leads were constantly fighting like cats and dogs, while she was being meticulously fed and cared for by the “Living King of Hell” himself, she finally understood: who was the female lead and who was the supporting character didn’t matter at all. Being able to lie back and enjoy life was the real victory.

Lu Jingchen fed Ye Qianqian a bite, then took one himself. The couple took turns, and before she knew it, Ye Qianqian had eaten quite a bit more.

“Honey, watching you eat the food I feed you gives me such a sense of accomplishment. It makes me happier than closing a billion-dollar deal,” Lu Jingchen said as he set down the bowl and chopsticks, placing Ye Qianqian on the sofa. “Sit and rest for a while. I’ll go pack our luggage. Okay,” Ye Qianqian agreed readily, then feeling at ease, picked up her phone to scroll through it.

[So jealous! Having money is great, the female antagonist and the big boss don’t have to argue over who cooks or who does the dishes.]

[The big shot enjoys cooking for the female antagonist himself in the small kitchen. When he doesn’t feel like it, there are servants, and washing dishes isn’t even on their radar.]

[After the female antagonist changed her fate, the female lead is having a rough time, either getting beaten up by the male lead or suffering from emotional neglect.]

[The male lead changed his heart, the second male lead is biased, the third male lead was sent to prison by the big boss. At least the fourth male lead is still holding on.]

[Speaking of the fourth male lead, I just remembered, the big shot is going to Country Y this time to clean up his mess.]

[Tsk, tsk, tsk, the female antagonist is still in the mood to play on her phone. Lu Zhenting is causing chaos in Country Y just to trap the big boss into going over there.]

“Honey, let’s go,” Lu Jingchen said as he walked out of the walk-in closet, pulling two suitcases behind him.

“You’re amazing, hubby! You packed two large suitcases so quickly. Are we going to be away for long?”

Ye Qianqian didn’t know how to remind Lu Jingchen that his nephew was deliberately stirring up trouble, so she could only ask indirectly.

“My wife rarely goes out, I want you to enjoy yourself to the fullest. I only packed your daily essentials and intimate apparel. We’ll buy everything else new,” Lu Jingchen declared confidently. He had originally planned to go on their honeymoon after the wedding, but since there was business to attend to, starting their honeymoon early wasn’t a bad idea.

Having a private jet was so convenient, it saved a lot of waiting time at the airport, and they took off soon after.

…

Country Y, a luxurious manor.

Lu Zhenting sat in the living room with his legs crossed, a wild, unrestrained look on his face. Since there were no outsiders around, he saw no need to hold back.

He took a sip of wine, his excitement tinged with madness, and asked his assistant, “Are you sure Assistant Bai didn’t come? Is it really just my third uncle alone?”

“Confirmed that Assistant Bai didn’t come with Third Master, but Third Master isn’t alone,” the assistant stammered.

“As long as Assistant Bai isn’t here, we have nothing to fear. Duke Leos has promised to lend me some men.”

“Master Ting, collaborating with Duke Leos will deal a heavy blow to the Lu Corporation. Are you really willing to make a pact with the devil?” the assistant asked worriedly.

“The young duke only operates within Y Country. My strength is no match for Third Uncle’s, so I plan to hand over all of the Lu Corporation’s assets in Y Country to him.”

Lu Zhenting, his eyes bloodshot, continued, “Our Lu family is the wealthiest in Rongcheng. I only want to be the master of the Lu Corporation.”

“Not to mention our companies in other countries, even within the country, we have branch offices in many cities.”

“……” The assistant had a bellyful of words but didn’t know where to start. He thought about resigning as soon as he returned to the country.

For the sake of his life, he had to stay away from this madman.

Why didn’t he leave now? It wasn’t that he didn’t want to… he didn’t dare!

If he resigned now, Lu Zhenting, this lunatic, would surely tear him limb from limb.

Although his family background couldn’t compare to the Lu Corporation’s, it was still better than most. Even if he did nothing, he could live comfortably without worrying about food or drink.

The only condition was that he didn’t stir up trouble. As the saying goes, “Those who bring trouble upon themselves will not survive.” He didn’t even know if he would make it home alive.

Dad!

His son regretted this so much!

Since childhood, he knew their family company was meant for his older brother to take over. When he wanted to become Lu Zhenting’s assistant, his parents and brother couldn’t bear to see him suffer.

They said it was fine to hang out with Lu Zhenting, but there was no need to be his assistant. Their family wasn’t lacking, so there was no need to serve others.

He tried his best to persuade his father and brother, saying that the Lu family’s eldest young master had been his classmate for many years and he knew him well.

His father and brother deliberated for a full year before relenting. He remembered his brother saying that Lu Zhenting was just a spoiled rich kid with no real skills.

After graduating and working at the Lu Corporation for a few years, Lu Zhenting indeed hadn’t shown any ambition. Who would have thought he would suddenly go so crazy over a woman?

He even teamed up with outsiders to scheme against Third Master Lu. In truth, the assistant was more worried about Lu Zhenting himself.

Third Master Lu had dominated the business world for over a decade. At just fifteen, he had the ability to turn the tide and save the Lu Corporation.

Forget Duke Leos, even the old duke might not be able to take down Third Master Lu. But no matter what he said, Lu Zhenting wouldn’t listen.

A ringing phone interrupted Sang Boyu’s thoughts. He heard Lu Zhenting’s voice, dripping with tenderness.

“Yanyan, why are you crying again? Song Yuntao is truly worthless. He forced you to marry him but doesn’t know how to cherish you.”

“What? He actually compared you to that country bumpkin Ye Qianqian?”

“Yanyan, don’t cry. Your tears break my heart. I’ll be back soon, and I promise I’ll make sure you can trample all over Ye Qianqian.”

“Yanyan, you’re finally laughing. Your smile makes me feel so much better. Don’t worry, I’ll be back within a month.”

“I’ll first settle the Lu Corporation’s business in Y Country, then return to challenge my third uncle for control of the corporation. Once that’s done, you’ll be able to do whatever you want in Rongcheng.”

“Yan… Yan… Are you serious? You’ve always liked me? Hahaha… I always thought I was ten thousand times better than Song Yuntao.”

“Really? Yanyan thinks I’m better than him too? I have to go, another call is coming in.”

Lu Zhenting hung up the phone and jumped for joy. “Boyu, Yanyan said she’s always loved me! Hahaha!”

“Lord Ting, I heard it.” Sang Boyu really wanted to say, “I’m not deaf, I heard it long ago.” He strongly doubted the truthfulness of Ye Qingyan’s words.
