"But Lu Qing is too powerful, dealing with him won’t be easy at all."

Lu Xing glanced at Mo Wenwan and said lightly, "If it were easy, it wouldn’t be worth mentioning. Actually, things are simple and complicated for me at the same time. I need helpers, as well as the right time, place, and people."

"I understand exactly what you mean, which is why I’m genuinely offering to help you."

Once again, Mo Wenwan reiterated the sincerity in her words, always feeling that Lu Xing didn’t truly believe her, so she repeated herself seriously several times.

"I know. But I don’t want women getting involved."

As soon as he spoke, Mo Wenwan widened her eyes, looking confused by Lu Xing. She earnestly looked at him and said, "You don’t think a man’s career doesn’t need women, right? Do you look down on women’s abilities?"

"It’s not about looking down, it’s about not being suitable." 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Lu Xing said meaningfully, his expression gradually becoming hazy. He seriously recalled the suggestions Mo Wenwan had given before, confirming the thought that he couldn’t let her get involved. The current contest with Lu Qing was one where they couldn’t see each other at all; the competition behind the scenes was intangible and invisible. The fewer people involved, the fewer who would know.

"There’s some noise downstairs."

Mo Wenwan heard people talking, the sound seemed chaotic, and unfamiliar as well. She felt the atmosphere with Lu Xing becoming awkward, seriously looking into his eyes absentmindedly, curiously stepping out of the study.

Qin Miaomiao carefully cradled the eldest child and placed him into Old Sir Lu’s arms.

"Grandpa, it’s alright, as long as you don’t shake, it’ll be fine."

Old Sir Lu felt a bit of pressure, since holding a child was not his forte. But he also wanted to get close to the child, after all, it was his grandson. The more he thought about it, the more he felt a special kind of joy. With a determined expression and an unstoppable smile, he squinted his eyes and said, "A bit chubby, grown a bit. Good. Really good."

Qin Miaomiao’s gaze fixed on Old Sir Lu, her mood also becoming astonished, she seriously looked at the child, "Grandpa, I need to step out for a bit."

Lu Qing glanced at Qin Miaomiao and said, "Go ahead, I’ll watch."

Mo Wenwan saw Qin Miaomiao, then saw Lu Qing, and also saw Old Sir Lu genuinely smiling as he held the child. She couldn’t help but shake her head at Lu Xing’s current situation, clicking her tongue.

"What are you looking at?"

"Come and see for yourself."

With that, Lu Xing curiously looked at Mo Wenwan’s surprised expression.

Seeing Old Sir Lu, seeing Lu Qing, and also the baby carriage beside the nanny, his gaze became hazy, realizing that Old Sir Lu valued the issue of descendants highly. In this aspect, he certainly lagged behind Lu Qing, so he could only make up for it in other ways. Thus, he focused on Mo Wenwan’s profile, forming different thoughts in his mind.

"Mo Wenwan, let’s officially date."

The sudden statement startled Mo Wenwan.

She looked at the serious Lu Xing in shock, feeling the suddenness in her heart. She sensed that Lu Xing had spoken about dating out of an emotional impulse and then turned her gaze to Old Sir Lu and the baby in his arms.

"Is it because of..."

By this time, Lu Xing had already turned away and was heading towards the stairs. She thought for a moment, then hurriedly jogged over, grabbing his arm, "Since you mentioned it, I should cooperate with you even more, boyfriend."

Mo Wenwan’s calling him ’boyfriend’ made Lu Xing even more certain of his thoughts. Seriously staring at Mo Wenwan’s profile, Lu Xing became more determined in his mind, finally squinting his eyes and saying, "If we’re cooperating, we must cooperate well."
