I Became the Male Lead's Stepmother After Transmigrating Novel - Chapter 29

Chapter 29: Sent to the Master Bedroom

With the title of Mrs. Lu, many people thought that she was not short of money, but only Xiang Xiaoyuan herself knew the pain.

Her total assets were only 300,000 yuan. After opening the shop, her assets were more likely to become negative, which was why she valued the job of this parent representative so much. That was 800,000 to 900,000 yuan, which could solve her urgent problem!

Her words did not match her heart. She was talking about Xiang Xiaoyuan’s current situation.

She clearly wanted to die in her heart, but she said that it was fine. I don’t care.

When she told the parents that she did not know how long she could be a parent representative, she was actually hinting to the parents that they need to do something to tie her to the job. If there is no such thing, she will leave whenever she wants. Where would the parents get such a perfect parent representative?

As expected, Xiang Xiaoyuan’s prediction was right. When the parents saw what she said, they all became anxious. It was a rule of the underworld to accept money to do things. Therefore, they had to stuff the money into Xiang Xiaoyuan’s hands even if they had to force it!

They were all respectable people. They couldn’t do things like accepting money and not doing things. If they really did it, they wouldn’t be able to stay in the circle in the future.

Therefore, the parents unanimously felt that as long as Xiang Xiaoyuan accepted the money, she would at least be the parent representative until the next semester. As for the next semester, they would talk about it later!

Therefore, the other parents called each other and decided to work together to make sure that Xiang Xiaoyuan accepted the money!

However, Xiang Xiaoyuan’s attitude was obvious, so they didn’t directly communicate with Xiang Xiaoyuan. Instead, they contacted Lu Wanggui’s assistant, Gao Yuan. Gao Yuan often came to the school to hold parent-teacher conferences for Lu Bei and handle various matters. Therefore, the parents were very familiar with him.

They directly transferred the money to Gao Yuan and told him that although they knew that Mrs. Lu did not lack this bit of money, it was a token of their appreciation. If Mrs. Lu did not accept it, how could they have the face to see her in the future, how could they have the face to ask her to help take care of the children.

After hanging up the call with the parents, Gao Yuan immediately called Xiang Xiaoyuan again. After he conveyed every word of the parents’ words to them, he asked tentatively, “Mrs. Lu, what do you think?”

What do I think?

Xiang Xiaoyuan sat on the changing stool in the cloakroom. The floor-to-ceiling mirror in the distance reflected her sly smile. What could she think? Of course, she had to quickly put it away.

However, she could not say it directly, so she rubbed the corners of her mouth and tried to make her voice sound helpless. “They are too polite…”

Gao Yuan quickly said, “Actually, they are not polite. Those parents are all good people. You will know when you spend more time with them in the future. Also, Madam, please understand… in this society, especially those with a bit of status, they don’t want to owe people favors.”

It was easy to repay a debt, but hard to repay a favor.

Those who could use money to solve the problem, tried to use money to solve it, so as to avoid trouble.

Xiang Xiaoyuan’s voice was low. “Okay… but I won’t ask them to do anything for me because of this…”

Gao Yuan couldn’t answer this, so he could only hurriedly say, “Madam, the money has been transferred to your card. Also, Madam, don’t think too much. The parents are really grateful that you can take this job.”

As he spoke, Xiang Xiaoyuan’s phone vibrated. She opened it and saw that it was a message from the bank.

900,000 yuan!

Woo, she finally had money!

After hanging up the phone, Xiang Xiaoyuan wished that she could turn around three times and dance all the dances she had learned to express her joy of earning 900,000 yuan.

With this 900,000 yuan, her financial situation would be much more relaxed. She could start buying things that she wanted but couldn’t afford.

Of course, this money wasn’t easy to earn. From next semester onwards, she needed to report to school every day. Using money to do things, she had to treat the role of a parent representative as a job assigned by her superior seriously. She wanted to be elected as a parent representative by the parents next semester and earn another 900,000 yuan!

At the same time, downstairs.

After Lu Wanggui and Lu Bei reached home, Lu Bei changed his shoes and went upstairs. He locked the door with an attitude that conveyed that he didn’t want to see anyone. Lu Wanggui handed his suit jacket to Nanny Zhang and went to the study on the second floor.

The study on the second floor had a work area and a rest area. After dealing with a few urgent documents, he was ready to go to the rest area to change his clothes. However, when he opened the door, he found that the room was empty. Didn’t he ask the butler to bring his luggage to the study?

Coincidentally, the butler came in to bring him coffee. When he saw Lu Wanggui standing in the room in a daze, he quickly reminded him, “Sir, do you want to change your clothes? Madam asked me to move your luggage into the master bedroom on the third floor.”

Lu Wanggui, who had always been calm and collected, finally showed a look of shock on his face.

The butler had worked in the Lu family for so many years, and this was the first time he saw Lu Wanggui show such an expression. He vaguely felt that he had done something wrong. Just as he was about to apologize and admit his mistake, Lu Wanggui had already adjusted his expression. It was as if everything he saw just now was an illusion.

“Sir…” the butler hesitated. “Why don’t I go to the master bedroom and move the suitcase over?”

After a moment, Lu Wanggui shook his head..
