Chapter 100 Unpleasant Smell

"Move the camera to the right so I can see Tuanzi," Pei Wu said, leaning against the headboard.

"What's so interesting about a little furball?" Lu Xiwen said, but still adjusted the camera.

The little dumpling by the window stood alone, gazing in a certain direction. Its fur was blown to one side by the wind, visibly smooth.

A while ago, Pei Wu had to have a little dumpling stuffed in his arms when he slept at night. Not only did he get used to it, but his body also got used to it.

The sudden emptiness around me definitely affects my sleep.

“It’s almost time, you should rest first,” Lu Xiwen said. “I’ll meet with the Konot family at dawn, and it would be best if we could reach an agreement in one go.”

"Mm," Pei Wu replied, "No rush, just be careful in everything."

"I know." Lu Xiwen lay on the bed, his eyes bright, and leaned in to kiss the screen: "You have to think of me every moment."

Pei Wu was nearly overwhelmed by a straight ball.

As soon as the video call ended, the smile on Pei Wu's face gradually faded.

He got out of bed and walked to the window, where he saw that everything was quiet outside, with outlines of varying shades.

Pei Wu had been too shy to respond earlier, but now she gently closed her eyes, as if she could feel the kiss.

Even with the pheromone barrier, Pei Wu didn't sleep well at night, waking up twice, each time startled and then remembering that Lu Xiwen had gone abroad, before drifting back to sleep in a daze. By 6:30 in the morning, as soon as it was light, she couldn't fall back asleep.

Lu Xiwen was worried about leaving Pei Wu alone, so he asked the housekeeper to cook and do housework.

Pei Wu had just finished brewing coffee when the aunt swiped her access card and came in.

"Xiaowu woke up so early?" The aunt quickly changed her shoes.

"Okay, take your time," Pei Wu said. "I'll make you a cup of herbal tea."

"Thanks!"

The breakfast was made for two people. Pei Wu listened to her aunt talk about some everyday things, which was quite lively. Then she listened to the morning financial news for about ten minutes before driving to the company.

Lan Zhe had also been repeatedly reminded by Lu Xiwen, and indeed, Assistant Lan felt that Pei Wu didn't need it at all.

The two of them typed away on their keyboards all morning. When it was noon, Lan Zhe stood up and said, "Let's go eat. It's on me."

Pei Wu didn't refuse, and after standing up, she smiled and stretched her shoulders: "Then thank you, Assistant Lan."

Lan Zhe took Pei Wu to her favorite Western restaurant to continue cutting steak.

Pei Wu wasn't a fan of Western food, but she thought the food at this restaurant was quite good.

Just as they finished eating, a torrential downpour began.

Hongdu is surrounded by a sea of ​​rainbows, so the rainy season is always a bit longer there.

Neither of them had brought an umbrella, so they simply drank tea and chatted. Outside the floor-to-ceiling window, pedestrians hurried by, colorful umbrellas quickly opened, cars beeped, and the ground soon became wet.

"I never imagined you could make it this far," Lan Zhe said with a smile. "When you first joined the company, I thought you wouldn't last more than three months."

"To be honest, I'm not sure myself, after all, Lu Xiwen is really difficult to deal with."

"These days it's tough to deal with people," Lan Zhe said openly, speaking ill of his superior. "Only you can keep them in check."

Suddenly, Lan Zhe remembered something, leaned forward slightly, and said in a low voice, "You still remember Su Chen, right? I heard he married that person from the Ruan family."

Ruan Hanyan? That's great! These two should have been locked up a long time ago.

Previously, because of Su Chen and Ruan Hanyan's feelings, Lu Xiwen was so angry that he jumped up and down. He didn't shy away from talking to Lan Zhe about it. Although the content was all cursing, saying that they were "mentally ill", "don't they know their own conditions", and "do they deserve to like Pei Wu" and so on.

Pei Wu: "How did you know?"

“I have an uncle who went to their wedding banquet,” Lan Zhe said. “Both families’ businesses have declined, so marriage is the best solution. But they didn’t have a big celebration, probably because they knew they couldn’t invite too many people.”

Pei Wu couldn't help but think of the embarrassing life she had endured because of these two during her university years, but looking back now, she didn't feel anything was wrong.

Pei Wu glanced at her phone, then put it down.

Lan Zhe: "Didn't President Lu send a message?"

I called him this morning, but he's probably busy.

In a top-notch restaurant in Country C, Lu Xiwen had been sitting across from the manager for three hours.

This happens when you encounter some troublemakers; even Lu Xiwen has to spend time dealing with them.

There was no dispute over the price of the new inhibitor, but Lu Xiwen wanted the other party to provide an agreement to ensure that the new inhibitor would be used on the local Omega population.

It sounds easy, but the other party is unwilling to budge.

Lu Xiwen understood immediately: if they introduced it at a low price and sold it at a high price, then there was no point in discussing it.

While the other party's representative went out to make another phone call, Lu Xiwen took out his phone.

What did you have for lunch?

Squeak—

It seems that one of the side doors has opened.

Pei Wu slapped the mess on the table for Lu Xiwen and asked him if he had eaten.

It was obviously brought by Lan Zhe, Lu Xiwen said with a smile as he tapped and banged on it.

Until a strange fragrance wafted into my nose.

"Change the scent, it's too strong," Lu Xiwen instructed the waiter beside him in C language.

The waiter first stared in surprise, then looked embarrassed.

Lu Xiwen sensed something, turned his head, and saw a blond, blue-eyed young Omega.

The other person raised an eyebrow excitedly when Lu Xiwen looked up.

Country C is not a large country, but its population is very diverse. Due to its unique geographical location, trade and circulation are extremely widespread, making it far less safe than the domestic country. Sometimes, local forces override the government, and one unlucky night might lead to a fight between two gangs. When the video is occasionally uploaded to China, everyone exclaims, "It's like a movie!"

What Lu Xiwen valued was the port passage that extended from here to all directions.

It is now in the hands of the Konot family.

Country C has a project that is prohibited domestically: the modification of pheromones.

It's not just a simple change in scent, but rather the implantation of artificial interference in the glands. This makes the pheromones smell very different from the usual ones. For example, if Lu Xi didn't see the Omega in front of him, he would really think it was some kind of essential oil or aromatherapy.

Omgea speaks Chinese and expresses her emotions very boldly, asking Lu Xiwen, "Is my pheromone delicious?"

It's a word that carries a hint of self-praise and selflessness, as if once Lu Xiwen praises it, he'll immediately serve it to himself.

Mr. Lu: "It smells awful."

"…………"

This Omega was like a meticulously dressed "femme fatale." He lacked naturalness and possessed the composure and frivolity of someone who had been through many love affairs. Even his breath carried a seductive meaning. It wasn't that Lu Xiwen was being impolite, but the other party's intention in bringing such an Omega was all too clear.

Seeing that the Omega was about to come forward, Lu Xiwen stopped him in time, "That's enough, go back to where you came from, my rhinitis is about to flare up."

"Why doesn't Mr. Lu go to the hospital to get this checked out?"

"It just appeared."

Omega: "..."

The person in charge turned back, and seeing the situation, knew it was a failure. He sighed and beckoned, "Lass, come over here."
