The CEO’s Substitute Wife Is A Genius -
Chapter 160 Sister Man, isn’t Mr. Lu your husband?
Chapter 160: Chapter 160 Sister Man, isn’t Mr. Lu your husband?
"Let me introduce myself, I’m Ming Ran, my family is in the medical equipment business, and my mother is the president of the Beicheng Red Cross."
Ming Ran raised her eyebrows, her face radiantly stunning, very dazzling.
She had the sharpness of a lady from a prestigious family, quite proud and somewhat dismissive.
"Oh right, I am Lu Zhendong’s ex-girlfriend."
She paused, then added.
As soon as she said this, Zhang Ziqi, Mao Lili, and Wen Rui looked at each other, all feeling they had stirred up big trouble and disaster was imminent.
Only Jiang Man felt completely baffled.
Lu Zhendong, who?
She raised an eyebrow, tilting her head up, "So what?"
Ming Ran was taken aback by her response, unsure what to say for a moment.
Logically speaking, shouldn’t the current girlfriend get furious when confronted by the ex?
But the person in front of her was completely calm, appearing utterly uninvolved.
"Lu Zhendong only had me as his ex, and when we were together, he treated me very well, even giving me a customized diamond ring, look."
Saying this, Ming Ran deliberately flashed the ring finger on her right hand.
She wore a large, sparkling diamond ring.
The diamond shimmered under the natural light, quite eye-catching.
Jiang Man felt increasingly perplexed.
Does this woman have a problem with her brain?
She took out her phone and searched for the three characters ’Lu Zhendong’.
The search engine immediately suggested: Did you mean Lu Zhendong?
She clicked confirm.
Upon seeing the Wikipedia introduction, she finally realized.
So Lu Zhendong is Lu Xingzhou’s cousin.
The Lu family is a large clan, although the group was established by Lu Xingzhou’s grandfather, his brothers also helped a lot and are considered major contributors to the Lu family.
A few years ago, Lu Zhendong was still at the domestic Lu Group. Later, for some reason, he voluntarily requested a transfer and went to the overseas group as the Executive CEO.
"So, Miss Ming, what exactly is your real intention? Speak directly, please."
After understanding the situation, Jiang Man put down the book in her hand, her tone strictly business-like.
Seeing her so composed, Zhang Ziqi, Mao Lili, and even Wen Rui were all shocked.
Facing the ex-girlfriend’s provocation, Sister Man, the current girlfriend, remained as stable as Mount Tai with no emotional fluctuations whatsoever.
God, that’s really impressive!
"You really are something!" Ming Ran was honestly left speechless by the retort.
She had flaunted her diamond ring, yet Jiang Man was not at all angry, nor even jealous.
"No big deal, you, Mrs. Lu, do have quite a strong mental fortitude, goodbye."
With that, Ming Ran grabbed her purse, strutted away in her high heels, clearly furious.
Jiang Man thought this woman was really crazy.
"Sister Man, are you really not angry?" Mao Lili asked quietly.
"Why should I be angry?" Jiang Man looked puzzled.
"She came all the way to your doorstep..."
"But, she’s an ex now, where does she get the confidence to challenge the authority of you, the current one?"
"Exactly, it’s quite an eye-opener!"
"Wait a second." Hearing this, Jiang Man finally caught on, "Ex? Current?"
"Yeah, didn’t she say she was the ex of Third Master Lu? Sister Man, aren’t you the wife of Third Master Lu?"
Towards the end, Mao Lili’s voice grew quieter.
"Sister Man, we didn’t mean to pry into your privacy, knowing you are Mrs. Lu was actually by chance."
"Sister Man, to be honest, it was your sister Jiang Rou who told me, I accidentally let it slip..." Zhang Ziqi admitted her mistake proactively.
This time her attitude was much more proactive and sincere compared to her previous plagiarism of Jiang Man’s original work.
Jiang Man finally understood what was going on and couldn’t help but chuckle.
She even found the situation increasingly amusing.
"Cousin, how could you not be angry?" Seeing her mood seemed quite good?
Even Wen Rui was puzzled.
Jiang Man couldn’t disclose her relationship with Lu Xingzhou.
"I have no relation with Lu Zhendong."
"No," she hurriedly corrected, "we’re neither married nor in a romantic relationship."
Speaking of which, she should call Lu Zhendong ’Third Brother.’
So, after all, there was still some connection.
"Ah? Sister Man, you’re not Third Master Lu’s current partner?" Zhang Ziqi exclaimed, "But Jiang Rou said you were..."
"Jiang Rou and I aren’t close, not even as much as I am with you guys. Just treat her words as if they were nothing."
"Okay..." The three exchanged looks.
Such a huge misunderstanding had caused a bit of embarrassment.
Jiang Man didn’t feel embarrassed; she picked up her phone and texted Lu Xingzhou.
[Do you have a photo of your third cousin, Lu Zhendong? Send me one.]
Lu Xingzhou was in a meeting at that moment.
He had set Jiang Man as a VIP on his phone, so no matter when or where, he would receive her messages and calls immediately.
He picked up his phone, and his eyebrows lifted when he saw the message.
His third cousin?
His jealousy spilled over again.
Just last night, he had ordered male models at the bar.
And today, she was interested in his third cousin?
[No.]
His reply was brief, but it was loaded with emotion.
Jiang Man saw the two words and furrowed her brows.
[Fine, forget it. It’s not like I have no other way.]
After sending that message, she texted Wu Yingfan.
[Check on someone named Lu Zhendong and send me some photos.]
Wu Yingfan was efficient at his job.
In less than ten minutes, Jiang Man’s phone began to chime non-stop.
Jiang Man casually opened one of the photos.
Lu Zhendong was dressed in a gray suit with a vest, sporting a slicked-back hairstyle.
His demeanor was mature and poised.
Judging by his appearance and attire, he was probably around his thirties.
He resembled Lu Xingzhou around the brows, but the brothers still had significant differences.
Lu Zhendong seemed to have a reserved personality, the kind known for being quietly lively.
As for Lu Xingzhou, he was quite overtly lively.
She was curious, what piece of information had led Jiang Rou to the misunderstanding that her husband was Lu Zhendong?
...
At that moment.
At Beicheng International Airport.
A man about 1.8 meters tall, pulling a suitcase, discreetly exited through the VIP passage.
He took out his phone and immediately dialed a number.
"Hello, Grandma, it’s me, Dongzi."
"Dongzi?" The voice on the other end, Madam Lu, sounded delighted.
"I’m back," Lu Zhendong said with a smile. "I’ll catch a cab and come see you soon."
"Oh dear, why didn’t you tell Zhou’er in advance so he could arrange to pick you up?"
"There’s no need for such trouble. I’m used to doing things on my own; I’m not comfortable with too much fuss."
"You..." Madam Lu chided playfully: "Let me know when you’re close. I’ll cook something myself!"
Madam Lu doted on Lu Zhendong, her nephew’s son.
She rarely cooked, and even Lu Xingzhou didn’t often have the chance to taste her cooking.
But it was different when Lu Zhendong came; the old lady would definitely cook personally.
"Okay, Grandma, don’t tire yourself out."
"Tire myself? Not at all," the old lady said, unable to hide her happiness.
"Tonight, I’ll call your fourth brother back as well, and your fourth brother’s wife."
At the mention of his fourth brother’s wife, Lu Zhendong’s interest was piqued: "Great."
He heard that originally, the fourth brother’s wife was some person named Jiang Man, but due to a mix-up, it turned into Jiang Man.
He was quite curious about this Jiang Man.
