At this mont, Zhang Boyong and Zhang Yaowei felt as if they had been slapped hard in the face, their cheeks burning hot, filled with an indescribable sense of frustration and displeasure.
How could Leng Qingqiu be so inconsiderate?
After all, he was good friends with her father, Leng Huai Xin, and had gone to great lengths to arrange a marriage for his son, only for her to bring her fiancé here!
This act was no different from a deliberate slap in the face!
Although Zhang Boyong and Zhang Yaowei wore smiles on their faces, their eyes were cold, giving off a faint aura of resentnt and malice!
Seeing the coldness in Zhang Boyong and Zhang Yaowei's eyes, Lu Yu laughed coldly, his eyes full of mockery.
Now that Leng Qingqiu had spoken, he couldn't remain silent any longer.
"Mr. Zhang, I think you've overlooked my presence, haven't you?"
Thinking of this, Lu Yu spoke with a deep tone, his eyes flashing dangerously. The earlier words of the Zhang father and son had left him very displeased!
"And who might you be?"
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Zhang Boyong shifted his gaze to reassess Lu Yu, asking with palpable disdain in his voice.
"I am Qingqiu's fiancé."
Hearing Zhang Boyong's words, Lu Yu said with a smile, his tone calm yet tinged with sharpness: "I've been standing here all along, and only now does Mr. Zhang notice . Isn't such behavior rather rude, both in emotion and in reason?"
Lu Yu's words, though calm, were laced with a barbed undertone, subtly reproaching Zhang Boyong!
Upon hearing this, Zhang Boyong's face darkened instantly. He looked at Lu Yu, brimming with anger, unable to believe that this casually dressed Lu Yu dared to speak so flippantly!
"Is that so? Then perhaps it truly was my oversight."
Despite his anger, he adjusted his expensive suit and said, "I apologize. Allow to introduce myself: President of the East Ocean Chamber of Comrce and Chairman of Risheng Group, Zhang Boyong!"
Zhang Boyong's words were frosty and stern, his tone rising especially when he ntioned his titles, clearly attempting to suppress Lu Yu with his status.
In Zhang Boyong's view, Lu Yu was nothing more than a pretty boy living off a woman. Revealing his own status would surely highlight the disparity between them!
"Oh, pleased to et you."
Hearing this, Lu Yu smiled faintly and responded, his words indifferent, as though hearing about the most mundane thing.
His words were flat and unruffled, more a brush-off than a genuine response!
Buzz!
Upon hearing this, Zhang Boyong's brow furrowed, a trace of anger flashing across his face. How could the president of the East Ocean Chamber of Comrce and chairman of Risheng Group be t with such a tepid 'pleased to et you' after introducing himself?
Those two simple words felt like being dismissed, just like that!?
At this thought, Zhang Boyong clenched his fists and said, "Then, might I inquire about your identity!"
Zhang Boyong spoke these words through gritted teeth, infuriated by Lu Yu's nonchalant attitude. He wanted to see just who this Lu Yu thought he was!
"Lu Yu, working at Victory Group!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu responded coldly, his tone mild yet filled with a hint of amusent.
"Victory Group?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Boyong laughed, looking at Lu Yu, thinking to himself that he indeed was a freeloader!
With this thought, he raised his tone slightly, saying: "That's impressive, Mr. Lu, being so young and already considered a core mber of Victory Group, Qingqiu's right-hand man, I presu?"
"May I ask, Mr. Lu, which departnt you hold such a high position in?"
Zhang Boyong's tone was rhythmic, full of layered implications. To him, Lu Yu was just a kept pretty boy, and he intended to mock him harshly to showcase his own son's excellence!
"I'm the security manager at Victory Group!"
Upon hearing Zhang Boyong's words, Lu Yu responded with a smile, his voice filled with confidence!
So, he's just a gatekeeper!
Upon hearing this, Zhang Boyong looked at Lu Yu and said sarcastically, "Then, Mr. Lu, you indeed are a young and promising individual, to have risen to the position of security manager at such a young age!"
In his words, Zhang Boyong deliberately emphasized the word "security," making it sound like a complint when it was actually ridicule. He looked at Lu Yu with growing disdain!
Years ago, when he was in his twenties, he was already a dominant force in Lin'an City's business circles, and by thirty, he had established a significant enterprise.
His son had also received top-tier education at one of the best universities in Europe, making him exceptionally outstanding!
Compared to himself, the current Lu Yu was insignificant!
"It's okay."
Upon hearing Zhang Boyong's words, Lu Yu maintained his smile. He had seen much of the world's darker side, and nothing could unsettle him. He responded indifferently to Zhang Boyong's words.
This kid's skin, is it made of iron?!
Upon hearing Lu Yu's words, Zhang Boyong's expression changed, looking rather displeased.
Anyone sensible could see that his previous words were clearly mocking Lu Yu, but Lu Yu stood there unfazed, not showing the slightest trace of embarrassnt, responding so blandly as if he truly took it as a complint!
It seems the issue needs to be addressed directly!
Initially, Zhang Boyong hoped to sha Lu Yu into leaving on his own. However, not only did Lu Yu ignore his sarcasm, but he also faced him with such calmness, leaving Zhang Boyong feeling as though his punches landed on a cushion, unable to exert force!
"Mr. Lu,"
Thinking of this, Zhang Boyong spoke with feigned earnestness: "Qingqiu is the CEO of Victory Group, and you are a security manager. You two are as different as heaven and earth. Do you think you two are a good match?!"
His words were t with wide eyes, fixing a cold gaze on Lu Yu, as he spoke in a repressive tone, giving off a frosty accusatory vibe, with strong undertones of provocation!
