When they left Yuande Restaurant, it was almost ten o’clock in the evening.
Lu Lili rode in the same car as her Grandpa on their way home, and noticed that her Grandpa seemed visibly down, as if he had something on his mind. She felt a bit worried.
“Grandpa, how did your conversation with Uncle An and the others go?” she asked.
He had turned out like this after their conversation, so it must have been related to what they discussed.
Lu Wangxin was actually feeling quite exhausted at the moment.
He had worked all day, and should have gone to bed early. He’s old now, so he couldn’t stay up late at night anymore.
But he was the only elder in the family, and he still needed to worry about his granddaughter. He was willing to work harder for his granddaughter’s future.
Facing Lu Lili’s inquiry, he mustered up his spirits and replied, “Hehe, Lili, don’t worry. Since you really don’t like that kid An Jingxian, Grandpa won’t agree to the marriage alliance with the An family. I have declined it completely.”
“Hehe, Grandpa, you’re really kind!” Lu Lili finally felt relieved in her heart.
Seizing the opportunity, she continued, “Actually, I would rather work with you in the company and help you reduce your work pressure, so that you can enjoy your retirement years.”
“Hehe…” Lu Wangxin chuckled, but he didn’t want to say what he was thinking next.
He blamed himself too. He had been too busy with work all the time, and had neglected to discipline his granddaughter since she was young, thinking that as long as she lived happily like a little princess every day, it would be enough.
Now it had led to the situation where he was hesitant to entrust such a large corporation to her for management.
Because he knew very well the capabilities of his granddaughter.
That’s also why he had considered a marriage alliance with other influential families, hoping that his future son-in-law could help with the management of the company.
Lu Lili, of course, knew her own limitations. Her major in college was foreign language translation, and she didn’t understand much about financial management.
However, she could learn!
As long as a person with normal intelligence has determination and perseverance, there is nothing they cannot learn!
Anyway, she could delay the marriage matter, but she couldn’t show it in front of her Grandpa.
So Lu Lili suddenly came up with a good idea and happily shared it with her Grandpa :
“Grandpa, we don’t necessarily have to marry into other influential families. We can find a son-in-law who comes to our door! Then the child I give birth to will still have the surname Lu, and we can raise him from a young age and let him take over the company, isn’t that good?”
After speaking, Lu Lili stared closely at her Grandpa’s expression.
Seeing her Grandpa’s look of sudden realization and thoughtful expression, Lu Lili knew that her little idea had succeeded.
“Lili, let’s do it as you said.”
Lu Wangxin continued after a moment of contemplation. “But you have to know that it’s easy to find a man who comes from a good family, but it’s hard to find a man with a pure and honest character. When you’re evaluating people, you must keep your eyes open.”
He had seen news about poor men marrying into wealthy families and then seeking wealth and harming others, or keeping mistresses.
Lu Lili smiled happily and said, “I will, Grandpa, you can rest assured!”
Seeing her so happy, Lu Wangxin felt relieved but also worried.
In fact, the reason why he chose to marry into the An family was because there were no other options.
Don’t be fooled by the size of the whole Jiangbei city and the many eligible men from respectable families. It’s just because Lu Lili has offended Yan Tingshen in the past, so no family is willing or daring to marry her.
Only An Huaijiu, out of his friendship with the original owner’s father, is willing to marry her and make her his daughter-in-law.
But at that time, when An Huaijiu praised Lili for becoming more and more beautiful in the private room, and An Baowei suddenly giggled, Lu Wangxin clearly saw—
