Chapter 56: Chapter 56 Call It Even

Gun Gun giggled. “Bei Bei, you’re not a wolf. You’re a cute girl! Daddy’s wife is not cute, that’s why he doesn’t want me to marry a cute girl…”
Su Bei paused before asking, “Gun Gun, your daddy has a wife, right?”
“Of course!” Gun Gun replied without hesitation, tilting his head. The whole Lu family knew that his father’s wife was studying abroad. “But she is not as lovely as you!”
Su Bei secretly gritted her teeth in anger. ‘Lu Heting, you bastard!’ It turned out that he really had a woman!
She really didn’t mind that he had a wife. After all, five years had passed. She had never expected him to wait for her, a woman that he didn’t even know.
However, he shouldn’t have lied to her.
At the same time, she knew that she had no right to get angry. She could just take it as his revenge against her for leaving without saying goodbye back then.
Now they could call it even!
Fortunately, she hadn’t told him about Da Bao’s existence. Otherwise, things would have become really complicated.
“Bei Bei, will you come to see me?” Gun Gun asked eagerly, tilting his round head.
Su Bei let out a soft chuckle. “I’ll come if I get the chance. Be a good boy. Good night.”
After hanging up the phone, she sighed slightly. No matter what, it was shameless of Lu Heting to lie to her without any conscience, claiming that he had a son but no woman.
How could he have a son without a woman?
Even a child would be more honest than him!
Well, forget it. She could just call it even. They wouldn’t owe anything to each other anymore.
Then, she grabbed a cushion and sat on the sofa in a daze.
In the study of Lu Heting’s house, he finally stood up after defending against the powerful attack from the new hacker. He looked at his brother and said indifferently, “Ask this person to come to the company and report for duty.”
Lu Weijian’s face broke out into a smile at once. “As long as you’re around, we can solve anything!”
Seeing that his brother seemed to be unhappy to hear that, he hurriedly flattered him even more. “You’re a king! You beat everyone! This hacker is the best one we’ve gotten. Should we offer him or her the highest salary?”
“It’s up to you.” After saying that, Lu Heting walked out of the study without looking back.
“No wonder hackers like attacking us. As long as they can cause great pressure on our defense system, they’ll be hired at our company with a high salary,” Lu Weijian muttered to himself. “Well, let me see who you are! Come and show yourself!”
He sent a sincere job offer to the e-mail address that Lu Heting had given him.
A moment later, there was a ping on Da Bao’s iPad telling him that he had received a new email.
When he was about to open it, Lin Moli came over and threw a set of pajamas to him. “Da Bao, enough of playing with that. Kids should go to bed early and get up early. It’s good for your health!”
Da Bao turned the iPad over and clicked on the newly received e-mail. When he saw that the name of the sender was “Invincible Swordsman,” he couldn’t help shaking his head in disdain. The employees of the Lu Group were so childish!
Lu Heting went to his son’s room. Gun Gun was sitting on the chair with his head on the desk. He had fallen asleep with tears on his face, looking pitiful.
Lu Heting picked him up and tucked him into the soft bed.
When he returned to his bedroom, he took out his phone and dialed the number that was written on the box, the one he had already memorized.
After a few rings, Su Bei’s sweet voice came from the other end of the line. “Hello, Su Bei here. Who is this?”
“It’s me.” A faint smile appeared at the corners of Lu Heting’s lips.
“Hello, Mr. Lu.” Su Bei spoke in a chirpy, high-pitched voice, wanting to sound polite. But on the contrary, she sounded distant and alienating, as if she was talking to a stranger.
