The next day at work, Lu Chen held his head in his hands all morning. One glance and it was obvious that he was still drunk.
Yesterday, I was too busy chatting to see how much he drank, but when I left to support him, I accidentally kicked over three moutai bottles.
I thought about it and decided I'd better tell him what happened yesterday. After all, how they were to handle this matter was related to the interests of beauty.
"Lu Chen."
He didn't even raise his head as if he was in extreme discomfort. He only replied in a low voice.
"Yesterday the lady asked when we were getting married, and I said you were busy. "She said that she would come and tell her when the time is decided, and that she will give me a big red packet." I told him in detail.
He raised his head and looked at me suspiciously, as if he was asking me why I chose such a stupid answer, "You... "Forget it." He started to say something, then stopped, as if I was too angry with him to speak, but I kept feeling that he was a little pleased.
"What's wrong with me?"
He rubbed his temples and said with melancholy, "It's better if you said so earlier. It's not so easy to deal with now."
"Why?"
"If the wedding were to take place now, public opinion would be even worse. Also, "he raised his eyebrows and looked over, asking with a hint of playfulness," Didn't you say that you didn't want to?
I didn't want to. I didn't want anyone to know about our relationship. Now that she had been scolded for almost a month, there was no need to think about it anymore.
"It doesn't matter."
He beckoned me over, and I hesitated, not knowing what he was going to do, before I went. His tone was soft and sincere. "Thank you for yesterday."
After getting used to his domineering and forceful attitude, I was at a loss of what to do. I smiled at him and said very magnanimously, "No need to thank me. Next time, just remember me if you go crazy." He smiled and nodded.
However, after half a day of work, the documents he had to deal with were already piled up in a pile. There are so many industries involved in the gathering of the United States that, although not all of them are top-notch, they will have to pass. Lu Chen managed such a large company in an orderly manner.
Whether it was a headache or work, he had been frowning all morning.
Considering his discomfort from the wine, I bought him some porridge at noon, forgetting for a moment his fastidiousness about eating.
He looked at the porridge in the bowl and the small pickles in the plate without speaking for a long time. After a long time, he opened his mouth and said, "I know you mean well, but I can't convince myself to eat it."
"Then what do you want to eat?"
"Today is Thursday, so I should eat beef."
I think we both misunderstood this conversation, and before long I was back with a bowl of beef porridge. He looked at the porridge, then I looked at me and sighed. Without saying anything, I carried the porridge to the balcony.
It seemed like he was still unsatisfied with the bowl of porridge. He didn't know why he was willing to let me not buy it again today. Could it be that he felt that he owed me a favor and wasn't so strict with me?
I sat on the sofa and felt the sun come up.
I used to think he was lonely when he was eating alone, so I would pack a bag from the store and come over to eat with him. I don't care if he's lonely or not anymore, since he's been reading my mind twice.
"Mu Yan." He suddenly called out to me.
I pretended not to hear him and refused to set foot on the little balcony.
"Mu Yan." He didn't give up and shouted again.
Damn it, my feet disobeyed my orders and walked towards him. After being oppressed by him for such a long time, could it be that I have an uncontrollable feeling of obedience towards him?
"What's wrong?"
He glanced at the stool at the small table and motioned for me to sit down.
"I thought it might hurt to have a wedding."
What was going to happen now?
"Then let's not do it." My reply was straightforward.
Lu Chen took a small sip of the porridge with disdain, "No, I've been introducing the person to you since I was 20 years old. From seventeen or eighteen, to thirty or forty, she must have introduced me to nearly a hundred people. In the end, she gave up too, and said grumpily, "Let's see what kind of Heavenly Immortal I'll marry."
As a Heavenly Immortal, I impolitely laughed. What did a hundred targets mean? Even the emperor only had seventy-two concubines from the three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines. To think that he actually had a hundred matchmaking partners!
"Today's bidding, the real estate agency has already issued their standard." He spoke in a slow and unhurried manner, without much regret. "So we can no longer appease their feelings."
Lu Chen had never revealed their identities, yet he had listened to them speak in such a manner. This made me curious. When he finishes his meal, I'll definitely go watch a few episodes of the news. If it's a big boss, he'll definitely show up.
"I want to hold a press conference. When the time comes, can you pretend to be close with Zichen-jie?" He could even say something like that.
I pursed my lips, not wanting to hear the name. However, if I agreed, he would owe me one more favor, which would be worth it, so I didn't refuse. "Look at her, if I had to pretend to be hot and stick to my cold butt, I wouldn't do it."
"Don't worry, I won't."
I didn't know what Lu Chen had done, but the next time I saw Zhou Zijie, she called me Assistant Mu in a friendly manner. She even asked me if I wanted to have coffee together with her.
I acted as if I had seen a ghost, and was ruthlessly looked down upon by Chai An Zhe who was at the side.
"Don't you find it magical at all? It's Zhou Zijie, and she asked me if I was going to have coffee. " My hands were shaking, and I couldn't suppress my excitement.
"Now that CEO Lu is here, no matter how amazing the matter is, it won't be miraculous."
"What did CEO Lu do?" I couldn't wait to ask.
"CEO Lu told Miss Zhou. If she insisted on not cooperating, he would forcefully take away all the shares in her hands and also break off the relationship with the Zhou family. Without CEO Lu's care, the Zhou family would have been bought long ago. "No matter how unwilling Miss Zhou is, she can't just ignore the property of her family."
Indeed, it was Lu Chen. When the firepower was fully unleashed, no one would be able to block it.
Actually, I don't really agree with his actions. As the saying goes, a cow shouldn't be forced to drink water. A clay figurine has a bit of soil, so if he was forced into a corner, he didn't know what Zhou ZiJie would do.
When Zang Anzhe saw my expression, he thought that I was scared, and that I had committed a crime that even a senior would have committed, and was bragging.
"That scared me silly. You don't know when Director Lu was arguing with CEO Lu. At that time, Director Lu didn't want to go to school and wanted to work in a family business, so he could persuade him not to listen. He had handed over all the authority to manage Gongmei to him and had gone abroad for a vacation. During that time, Jumei was on the verge of bankruptcy. If CEO Lu had come back a day later, there might have been no Jumei by now. "
My cell phone whined in my pocket. I opened it and saw a message on my WeChat. I felt happy and embarrassed at the same time.
