Female lead’s Delusion of Starting Over - Chapter 39

Chapter 39: If Not Given, Then Snatch

Zhao Shaotian and his party left with Ye Chen in a hurry, having lost face, Ye Chen naturally wouldn’t stay any longer.

Chen Xiaoyi was also sent away by Lu Li, given the dirt on Zhao Corporation to start preparing. This was Chen Xiaoyi’s chance, if she couldn’t satisfy Lu Li, then apologies, but Lu Li doesn’t support the useless.

The stage was set for her, armed with the best advantages; if she couldn’t meet Lu Li’s requirements, it would only mean this woman was different from her previous life.

Lu Li needed a business elite female lead, not someone who would just throw tantrums at him.

If she could meet the former, Lu Li might tolerate the latter.

If not, it just meant Chen Xiaoyi was of no use, cannot let go, because Lu Li wouldn’t watch the female lead run to the main character’s side, then there was only one method left.

“Bro, I’m leaving too, let’s have a meal together when you’re back, I’ll be heading back to Modu soon.” Li Zichuan also left.

Zhang Ziqin, Liu Menghan, Su Bingqing, the three of them left early, casting complex glances at Lu Li before leaving, especially Zhang Ziqin who seemed to want to say something but didn’t utter a word in the end.

The vast venue suddenly became empty, Lu Li casually picked up a champagne beside him, drank it in one gulp, only with taste, one knows the beauty of life, his previous self, lived the darkest days.

“Mr. Lu Li, sorry to keep you waiting.”

Lu Li’s gaze shifted, did this woman reapply her makeup?

Different from the previous ethereal, almost otherworldly, cold fairy in a white dress, the current Cao Yingying, still in a white long dress, had her face lightly made up, her bright red lips seemed to emit endless allure, like the combination of an angel and a demon, black high heels adding a few touches of proud demeanor, more serious too.

It was like a high cold fairy descended, turning into a workplace elite!

Lu Li’s eyes couldn’t help but flash with amazement, Cao Yingying’s beauty was beyond doubt, that intellectuality, cold beauty radiating from inside out, and the contrast created by her makeup, more like a tempting poison.

Feeling Lu Li’s gaze, Cao Yingying smiled brightly: “Lu Li, how about it, do I look good in this?”

The tone, like coquettishly talking to a boyfriend.

How does it feel a bit off!

But Lu Li didn’t mind, the female lead Lu Ya was already killed by him, this world’s trajectory had long changed.

“It suits you very well.” He smiled gently, very gracefully.

Cao Yingying’s heart skipped a beat, her smile becoming even more radiant, suppressing the joy in her heart, she knew that she and Lu Li had just met in this life, she couldn’t be too familiar: “Please come with me, let’s go see my grandfather.”

“Alright!”

Arriving at the luxurious residence next to the banquet hall, Grand Master Cao had been waiting for a long time, his gaze towards his granddaughter also flashed with a bit of amusement.

A somewhat helpless smile.

Then looking at Lu Li, he laughed heartily: “Ha ha ha ha, young man, you really are lucky, my granddaughter is ethereal, I’ve never seen her dressed up like this.”

“Grandfather, what nonsense are you talking about!” Cao Yingying’s cheeks reddened.

Lu Li smiled, neither humble nor arrogant: “Since it concerns Grand Master Cao’s health, Miss Cao naturally is extra concerned.”

“En…” Grand Master Cao looked at Lu Li with suspicion.

Then at his granddaughter, that forlorn look, the wise old eyes swept through a realization: “Ha ha ha ha, yes, yes, my granddaughter is just so filial, gets serious when it comes to my matters, come on, young man, take a look at this old man, if you really can cure it, I’d be very happy.”

Laughing heartily, his speech somewhat offbeat, seemingly without any dignity, appearing like an ordinary kind old man, a childlike figure.

If placed outside, perhaps those unacquainted with the old man would hardly imagine his exalted status!

Lu Li hadn’t interacted with Grand Master Cao in his previous life, so he hadn’t noticed anything.

He didn’t waste words, what he wanted was the Cao family’s favor, the Cao family’s status wasn’t on the same level as the Lu family’s, gaining the Cao family’s favor was absolutely beneficial for his future development or revenge.

“This is the prescription I wrote, Grand Master Cao take it daily, after a month combined with traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture, there’ll be improvement, in three months you can move a little, and in half a year, I guarantee your legs will be as good as new.”

Directly taking out the prescription he had prepared in advance, Lu Li had been ready.

“Oh, young man from the Lu family, won’t you assess the situation first?” Grand Master Cao’s eyes flashed with surprise.

“No need, if I can’t cure you, then it’s my incompetence.” His face brimming with confidence, infecting Grand Master Cao as well.

“Ha ha ha ha ha, young people are indeed young people, good! Then I’ll entrust myself to you, young man. Since you can come up with the prescription, you must know acupuncture too, right!”

“Of course.”

“Then I, this old man, will trouble you for the next half year.”

“Uh…” Lu Li just wanted a favor from the Cao family, he hadn’t planned to come over every day to interact with Grand Master Cao!

“What, you despise me, old man, huh!” Grand Master Cao chuckled, his penetrating gaze carrying a hint of scrutiny.

“The junior wouldn’t dare, since Grand Master Cao has said so, the junior will comply.” Indeed, old and cunning, such experienced old monsters are definitely not easy to deal with.

But Lu Li didn’t mind, it was just spending some more time in the future.

The more he offers, the Cao family must give him more in the future, everything is clearly priced, if the Cao family doesn’t give, Lu Li will snatch it himself.

“Young man from the Lu family, you are indeed a wonderful person.” Deeply looking at Lu Li, Grand Master Cao’s smile slightly faded, uttering this phrase, unclear whether it was a compliment or something else.

“Grand Master Cao jests, I’m just a businessman.” Lu Li smiled lightly, still maintaining his carefree demeanor.

“Right, right, a businessman, a businessman, good, then let’s start from now, Yingying, accompany our businessman, young man from the Lu family to prepare, Grandfather’s future is in your hands.” Praising Lu Li with a glance.

Even with his insight, he couldn’t decipher this young man’s thoughts.

Yet this young man just straightforwardly showed his intentions.

Completely incomprehensible!
