“Now, that person’s company is in trouble. Wang Jiarou’s father helped, but the outcome didn’t improve. Instead, the two companies are in trouble at the same time. Only then did Wang Jiarou place her target on me.”

“In that case, she didn’t cling to the Lu family and gave up everything for true love,” Su Bei said. “However, she really underestimated me. She thought that I’d give up my mutual trust with you for that little threat of hers.”

“If she had come to me earlier, I might have helped her on account of her refusal to marry me back then. But now, since she has already tried to control you, she has completely destroyed this possibility.” Lu Heting’s tone was cold.

Wang Jiarou might not have expected that she would mess things up by coming to look for Su Bei.

Lu Heting had always been tolerant, but matters to do with Su Bei were an exception.

Wang Jiarou had personally ruined all her chances.

Thinking of Wang Jiarou’s methods, Su Bei also felt that it was better not to get involved. She even said things like new lover and old lover, making others think that she was really Lu Heting’s former flame.

“I’ve already handed it to Lu Hang. Leave her alone.” Lu Heting accompanied Su Bei upstairs.

After going upstairs, Su Bei sat on the sofa and read the script. Lu Heting went to his room.

While Su Bei was reading, Lu Heting reached out and handed her something.

“What’s this?”

“The annulment letter for Wang Jiarou. It was given to her on our wedding day. This is the backup copy.” Lu Heting’s tone was deep, and his distinct joints held a thin document.

Su Bei paused for a moment and took it. She had run away without a trace the day she married him and only reappeared five years later.

Yet he had prepared for everything, even cutting off all avenues of escape just to wait for her.

What did she do to deserve the trust and love of this man in front of her?

Lu Heting sat down beside her. “Wang Jiarou’s matter is not a big deal at all. I think she knows that she’s in the wrong, so she doesn’t dare to come to me directly. She said that she has some sort of relationship with me, but I’ve never even met her. What relationship can there be?”

Su Bei placed the food on the sofa and whispered, “Lu Heting, what do you want me to do? I seem to love you more and more.”

“I don’t mind… being loved a little more by you.” Pulling her close, he pressed his forehead against hers.

The intimate, coy atmosphere spread between them.

…

Wang Jiarou was indeed in the wrong. The Wang family had volunteered to hand over her photo to the Lu family, and no one had forced them. Wang Jiarou was also the one who decided not to show up on their wedding day. Not only did the Lu family not find trouble with her, but they even sent an annulment letter over.

Back then, the Lu family was really benevolent.

Initially, she thought that she would never have to beg Lu Group in her life. As long as they ran their business properly, it was fine as long as they did not touch Lu Group. There would always be a way out.

However, the world was unpredictable. It had forced her to this point. She could either go bankrupt or beg Lu Heting.

She was not confident to beg Lu Heting, so she could only approach Lu Bei, an easier target.

In the end, it turned out that Lu Bei was not a pushover but a tough cookie.

Immediately after, Lu Hang told her to stay away from Lu Bei. Lu Group would let bygones be bygones, but there would be no next time.

Wang Jiarou knew that this was the last chance Lu Group would give her.

But what could she do?

Her boyfriend’s company was on the verge of collapse. Every day, he was chased around by his creditors. Her father’s company was about to collapse, and she could not fork out any money.

In the entire S Country, there were very few people who could help her father and boyfriend. The only person who could help them was Lu Heting.

“Jiarou, try again.” Hu Hanping grabbed her hand. “We’ve thought of all the other ways we can think of. Others won’t give me a chance at all. Now, only you have some connections with Lu Group. We can still count on Lu Group. If you don’t give it a try, I’ll really be cornered!”

“I’ve already tried. Be it Lu Heting or Lu Bei, I was the one who did something wrong. It’s good enough that Lu Group isn’t pursuing the matter. If I go again and anger Lu Heting, I don’t know what will happen.” Wang Jiarou didn’t want to see Hu Hanping like this, but she was really helpless.

“Jiarou, why did Lu Heting choose you back then? It must be because he at least had some feelings for you. At least he once liked you. So many women sent over their photos but Lu Heting selected you after a glance. Have you thought about it? This is your advantage and your opportunity!”

Wang Jiarou pushed him away. “What exactly are you thinking? Who do you think I am? Do you want me to get the investment in that way?”

Hu Hanping knew that he had misspoken and went forward to hug her. “That’s not what I meant, Jiarou. You’ve misunderstood me. I just want to say that Lu Heting must have some fondness for you, even if he doesn’t have any feelings for you. Think about it. You didn’t marry him back then, but he didn’t say anything, right? He even took the initiative to give you an annulment letter. Think about it. If you go to him again, he might be soft-hearted…”

Wang Jiarou’s heart was a mess.

The man in front of her was her true love. For years, she had been willing to do anything for him. Back then, she could have married into the Lu family. It was such a great opportunity and a chance that everyone dreamed of, but she did not want it. Instead, she went overseas for this man.

Now that he was facing such a dilemma, she really could not bear it.

Besides, this matter concerned the survival of her father and her entire family.

Hu Hanping adjusted his clothes and said again, “Jiarou, if you don’t help me, I really won’t have a future anymore. If you help me, our future will still be long. Our lives will be bright and brilliant.”

Wang Jiarou looked at the man she loved in front of her. She hooked her arms around his neck and threw herself into his arms. “What else can I do? Tell me, what else can I do?”

…

Not only did Wang Jiarou’s matter not become a sore point for Su Bei, but it also became a catalyst for her and Lu Heting’s relationship. The deep relationship between the two of them became stronger.

At night, Lu Heting made sure she had a long night.

The next day, Su Bei, who came to the set as Lu Bei, felt that her legs were extremely weak. She felt like she was floating.
