Traveling through the Immortal Realm: Starting from Becoming a Top-Level Furnace Cauldron

Chapter 427 Company



Chapter 427 Company

Lu Yuguan looked completely bewildered.

what is this?

Is Zhong Ziwei's company actually making such advanced stuff?

Ok……

It should be okay to peek, right?

Lu Yuguan, with the mindset that he couldn't understand it anyway, he was just watching for the fun and that even if he was discovered, he would be considered a level two idiot, quietly pulled out a card.

"...Regarding cases that have resulted in personality splitting, most of the participants had a history of self-harm, but fortunately, parts of their personality would disappear after self-harm..."

"...There is currently no precedent for personality transplantation..."

"..."

Lu Yuguan frowned.

I really can't understand it.

But then again, isn't Zhong Ziwei a liberal arts student? How come he's getting into such complicated stuff?

Just as he was pondering, Zhong Ziwei suddenly stirred, as if he was about to wake up.

Oops.

Lu Yu's heart tightened, and she hurriedly stuffed the document back, but accidentally knocked over the pen holder on the table.

Crash! —

The pen holder overturned, scattering its pens all over the floor with a crisp sound.

Zhong Ziwei suddenly raised his head, while Lu Yuguan was still clutching the blanket he hadn't had time to put on, his face full of panic.

"Why are you here?"

Zhong Ziwei's voice was hoarse.

Lu Yuguan opened his mouth, but didn't know how to explain.

Zhong Ziwei looked at Lu Yuguan's hesitant expression, then glanced at the blanket, and seemed to understand something.

He gently took the blanket and draped it over himself.

"Did you bring me a blanket because you were worried I'd catch a cold?"

Zhong Ziwei's voice softened, and a hint of a smile appeared in his eyes.

Lu Yuguan nodded, glanced at the desktop, and wondered whether he should reveal that he had seen the documents.

Seeing Lu Yuguan's conflicted expression, Zhong Ziwei gently patted his shoulder.

"rest early."

"These documents are needed tomorrow, I'll just stay up a little longer."

Lu Yuguan nodded silently and turned to move towards the bedroom.

Zhong Ziwei watched Lu Yuguan's retreating figure, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

Back in his bedroom, Lu Yuguan lay on the bed, but couldn't fall asleep.

The contents of the document kept swirling in his mind.

Why does he study these things?

"Could it be related to my illness?"

Lu Yuguan was completely baffled.

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains onto his face. Lu Yuguan slowly opened his eyes, but his thoughts were still lingering on the previous night.

He lay on the bed in a daze for a while, then slowly moved to his wheelchair and walked towards the study.

Zhong Ziwei was no longer in the study; the desk was spotless, and the documents from last night were nowhere to be found.

"Mr. Lu, breakfast is ready."

The maid's voice came from outside the door.

Lu Yuguan responded and turned his wheelchair to leave the study.

When they arrived at the restaurant, Zhong Ziwei was already sitting there with a simple breakfast in front of him.

Seeing Lu Yuguan approach, Zhong Ziwei smiled slightly.

"Did you sleep well?"

Lu Yuguan nodded, sat down next to Zhong Ziwei, and ate breakfast while secretly observing him.

"Have you run into any trouble lately?" Lu Yuguan finally couldn't help but ask.

Zhong Ziwei paused for a moment, then resumed his work. He smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing serious, just some minor issues with the project. I can handle it."

Lu Yuguan didn't believe him and continued to press, "What exactly is going on with those documents? What do the things your company is researching have to do with me?"

Zhong Ziwei's smile gradually faded. He remained silent for a moment, put down his cutlery, and looked intently into Lu Yuguan's eyes:

"Yu Guan... there are some things I can't tell you right now."

"But you have to believe me, everything I do is for your own good."

Lu Yuguan frowned, feeling somewhat displeased:

"You can't even be honest with me, yet you say you're doing this for my own good?"

Zhong Ziwei sighed and reached out to grasp Lu Yuguan's hand, but Lu Yuguan withdrew his hand.

Zhong Ziwei's hand froze in mid-air for a moment before slowly lowering itself.

"Yu Guan, give me some time. When the time is right, I will tell you everything." Zhong Ziwei's voice carried a hint of pleading.

Looking into his sincere eyes, Lu Yuguan's anger subsided slightly, but he still hadn't completely let go of his doubts.

He was silent for a moment: "Don't keep me waiting too long."

Zhong Ziwei nodded, a relieved smile on his face: "Don't worry, it won't be long. Have a good breakfast first, and then I'll take you for a walk."

Lu Yuguan did not speak again.

After breakfast, Zhong Ziwei pushed Lu Yuguan into the garden.

They walked slowly along the path, and Zhong Ziwei introduced him to the names of various flowers as they went.

Lu Yuguan appeared to be listening, but his mind was still on the documents.

"Yu Guan, look at that rose, how beautiful it is."

Lu Yuguan looked in the direction he pointed, and the rose was indeed blooming beautifully, but he had no mood to appreciate it.

Zhong Ziwei bent down, picked a rose, and handed it to Lu Yuguan.

"For you."

"...You're so cheesy."

“I remember when we first became a couple, you loved it when I sent you flowers,” Zhong Ziwei laughed. “Every time I sent you flowers, it made you especially happy.”

Lu Yuguan accepted the roses, and looking into Zhong Ziwei's gentle eyes, her doubts dissipated somewhat.

Perhaps I really should believe him?

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps approached, and a man in a suit rushed up to Zhong Ziwei and whispered a few words in his ear.

Zhong Ziwei's expression instantly turned serious. He looked at Lu Yuguan and said, "Yuguan, there's an urgent matter at the company that I need to take care of. Wait for me here, I'll be right back."

Lu Yuguan grabbed the hem of his clothes.

Zhong Ziwei asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

"Take me with you."

Lu Yuguan's gaze was distinct.

If we go to Zhong Ziwei's company, we might be able to find some clues.

"This……"

Zhong Ziwei hesitated for a moment.

Lu Yuguan bit her lip: "Could it be that there's something I can't see?"

"no!"

Zhong Ziwei said firmly.

Seeing that something was wrong, the man in the suit quickly said, "President Zhong, Secretary Zhao is also at the company today. She can take care of General Manager Lu, so please don't worry."

Zhong Ziwei hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded: "Okay, but when you get to the company you have to listen to the rules and not wander off."

Lu Yu was overjoyed and quickly nodded in agreement.

Upon entering the company gate, Lu Yuguan looked around curiously.

Zhong Ziwei led him to the office, arranged for him to sit on the sofa, poured him a glass of water, and said, "Yu Guan, wait for me here. I'm going to a meeting and will be back soon."

Lu Yuguan nodded obediently, watching Zhong Ziwei walk out of the office.

After Zhong Ziwei left, Lu Yuguan couldn't sit still any longer. He was just about to move his wheelchair back when he was attracted by the sound of the door being pushed open.

"Young Master Lu?"

The visitor was a capable-looking old man with gray hair, but he was in good spirits.

"you are……"

"Hehe, I haven't met you before, Mr. Lu. My surname is Zhao, and I am Mr. Zhong's secretary."

Secretary Zhao smiled faintly.
