After a long while, Lu Yao finally got up and, with a calm expression, went to the kitchen to wash the bowls
and put them in the disinfectant cabinet. He changed his clothes, went out to the garage to get his car, and
drove for half an hour before arriving at the company.
The staff all greeted Lu Yao: "Good morning, Manager Lu."
"Morning." Lu Yao smiled and nodded. He went into the office to take off his jacket and asked the assistant:
"Is Boss Ji here yet?"
"He's here. He's in the office."
Lu Yao went up to the CEO's office and knocked on the door and entered.
"The Manager Lu is here?" Seeing Lu Yao coming in, Boss Ji immediately put down the documents in her
hands, and invited her to sit in the rec eption area, and even started brewing tea: "Why is Manager Lu here?"
"About borrowing money from you." Lu Yao did not try to hide it as he said half pleadingly: "Boss Ji, I have
worked in the company for three years, you know my character, I hope you can lend me the two million."
Boss Ji was startled for a moment, then said with a troubled face: "Manager Lu, I am not the one in charge of
the company. Furthermore, with such a large amount of money, even if I agree with the other directors, they
would definitely not agree to it."
"I know, can I borrow it from you alone?" Lu Yao said, "Don't worry, in at most half a year, I will definitely
return this money to you, and even add on 5% of the interest!"
"Manager Lu, I have no choice, my money is under the control of my wife, and you know who my wife is, if
she knew whom I am borrowing money from, she wouldn't need to go home."
Boss Ji seemed to have thought of something and asked Lu Yao: "Hey, I remember that your husband isn't an
investor? Two million is just a small sum of money to him, why didn't you tell him? "
"Him? It's just a small investment, not much." When Lu Yao said this, his heart was sore.
Even though she had been married for three years, she knew that Shao Yunchen was an investor who didn't
know anything about where his company was and how much money they earned each month.
"Manager Lu, it's not that I don't want to help, I'm truly powerless as well." Boss Ji poured Lu Yao a cup of
tea, "Let me see, tell Finance to give you a raise next month, after all you have been working hard recently."
Lu Yao knew that there was no point in continuing, he stood up and left: "Then Boss Ji is sorry to bother you
for so long, thank you."
"It's fine, I didn't really help much. Why don't you try borrowing from the bank?"
"Thank you."
Lu Yao felt a little irritated after exiting the shop. He went to the bathroom, and when he saw that there was
no one around, he went into the cubicle. He took out a cigarette pack and a lighter from his pocket and lit one
up.
She was not addicted to cigarettes, smoking was just a joke. Ever since she married Shao Yunchen and found
out that he hated the smell of cigarettes, she had never touched him again.
Lu Yao sat on the toilet and smoked, his expression slightly solemn.
Ever since she was young, she had always been proud of having a judge as her father. When she was in
university, she had thought about applying for the judiciary, but her interest wasn't great. In the end, she chose
finance.
In fact, she had long ago felt that her family was too 'rich'. When they were married, her dowry was quite
generous, and they had moved into a three-story villa. She had always felt that her father was making a lot of
money, but she hadn't thought too much about it.
It wasn't until a month ago when his father didn't return home and his huge amount of corruption was r eported
by the news that Lu Yao found out that his father had been arrested.
His mother was crying so hard that her eyes were blinded and her hair was turning white.
Lu Yao was calm enough, he comforted his mother and contacted the lawyer, trying to think of a way to pay
back the stolen money bit by bit.
She had shamelessly moved into Shao Yunchen's apartment, but she was still short of two million. Her
relatives were afraid of her family, let alone borrowing money.
In this half a month, she had tried to contact all her good friends, but she couldn't find a single cent to lend.
