Meng Chuyuan was a recognized abandoned wife in the wealthy circles. Her husband was rarely home, and her brother-in-law and mother-in-law were both notoriously bad-tempered.
Everyone laughed...
Chapter 201: After this busy period
Lin Youjuan was sitting opposite Lu Qingye and Meng Chuyuan, and she could see every little move they made clearly.
Lu Qingye would take the initiative to pick up food for Meng Chuyuan, which doesn't seem like he just married her perfunctorily.
But she was a little worried that the couple would live apart as soon as they got married. If this continued for a long time, their feelings might fade one day.
If only they had more time together.
Lu Quanyu was suddenly asked by his wife to go on a business trip, and he immediately lost half of his appetite.
"I'm not going." Lu Quanyu put down his bowl and chopsticks and snorted softly, "I haven't even finished the project I'm working on yet. Why should I replace him?"
"Can't you suspend your project for the sake of our son?"
Lin Youjuan came back with him, so she naturally knew the reason. Even if the jade artifact was to play a role, it would not be possible to accomplish it in a short period of time. It would take a lot of time from signing the contract to allocating funds.
She thought that Lu Quanyu could replace Lu Qingye on the business trip during this period.
"He has hands and feet and can take care of himself. Why should you worry about him?"
Meng Chuyuan and the others saw that the atmosphere between the two was not right, and no one dared to say anything and interfere in the affairs of their elders.
Lin Youjuan snorted, expressing her dissatisfaction: "I don't want Xiao Meng to follow my old path."
It doesn't matter if this man goes on a business trip, but he can't stop the endless gossip outside.
Back then, no one dared to offend Lin Youjuan because of her mother's family's influence, but she knew that there were many people who laughed at her behind her back.
Now it is the turn of Meng Chuyuan, who comes from an ordinary family. In the eyes of outsiders, she is not presentable in any way. As long as her husband is not around, it seems that she cannot get rid of the label of abandoned wife.
Speaking of these past events, Lu Quanyu probably realized where he had gone wrong. His expression suddenly softened, and he softly agreed, "I'll listen to you. I'll go in his place the day after tomorrow."
However, Lu Qingye did not obey his mother's arrangement, because he had always been in charge of the work there, and no one was more familiar with the project than him.
"Dad, you just returned home, so take a break. I can handle my own affairs."
After listening to this, Lin Youjuan kept winking at Lu Qingye. Seeing that he didn't understand what she meant, she spoke frankly: "How can that be? I had a hard time convincing your father."
At this time, Meng Chuyuan spoke to break the deadlock: "Let him go."
For Lu Qingye, it is not just a job. He holds shares and is one of the company's shareholders. He has social responsibility and obligation to lead the company's development.
So, he works not just for himself.
However, all of this was exactly what Lin Youjuan couldn't understand. After being repeatedly thwarted, she looked somewhat disappointed: "Xiao Meng, why are you messing with me too?"
"We naturally understand your good intentions, but now is not the time to talk about love." Meng Chuyuan behaved in an orderly manner. She was not only helping Lu Qingye out of the predicament, but also expressing her views on the matter.
Meng Chuyuan could still tell what was more important.
If Lu Qingye handed over his work to his father tonight, perhaps she would really look down on him.
Perhaps something she said just now touched Lu Qingye, his eyes and brows were more gentle than usual, and he also had a little more respect for Meng Chuyuan.
"Good girl, you're so considerate. No wonder you're so lovable." Lu Quanyu was also pleasantly surprised by her perspective. He looked up and smiled at Meng Chuyuan. "After this busy period is over, I'll pick an auspicious day to hold your wedding with Aye."
