Chapter 127 Sitting on the Boss's Lap is My Skill
In the next few days, Yu Zhan started working, while Luo Shu and Yu Yu were busy with the new studio.
The two basically only saw each other once a day when they had dinner in the evening.
Sometimes when he came home from social engagements, she was already asleep.
The eighth day of the lunar new year marked the official start of construction and also the day Leng Xiangyi moved into her new home.
Luo Shu returned to her workstation early in the morning. She hadn't written her resignation letter yet, nor had she considered taking over Yuse.
She left the matter to cool off for a few days, only telling Yu Zhan that she was considering it, but ultimately she still wouldn't agree.
She didn't want to refuse immediately, as it would upset Yu Zhan.
She wanted to have her own career and not rely on anyone.
As soon as I stepped into Yuse, I heard people in the department discussing the newly hired General Manager Ling.
In the early morning, a 30-year-old man, a returnee from overseas, a Cambridge graduate, tall and very strong, captivated many young women in the department.
He distributed New Year's red envelopes on behalf of the company.
I stayed in the design department for two minutes, said a few words, and then left.
As he left, his gaze swept over Luo Shu.
Luo Shu didn't pay attention.
After getting off work, she quickly tidied herself up, bought a bouquet of flowers at a florist, and drove towards Leng Xiangyi's apartment.
As Luo Shu stepped out of the elevator, she heard a burst of laughter coming from apartment 1801.
She smiled, wondering if Yu Zhan had arrived yet; it had been a long time since she had a proper chat with him.
"Xiangyi, congratulations!" Luo Shu entered the new room and handed the bouquet of flowers to Leng Xiangyi.
Leng Xiangyi smiled and took the flowers from her hand, her face full of flattery, "Thank you, sister-in-law!"
She didn't dare to call her sister-in-law outside, nor did she want to. Now, she was probably calling her sister-in-law to the two women beside her.
The two women who had come with her smiled awkwardly, "Sister-in-law? These flowers are quite beautiful..."
"I heard that Xiangyi's brother Yu is a CEO. I thought he would send some gifts to ward off evil spirits." The slender woman spoke up, cautiously asking, "Doesn't brother Yu give you any pocket money?"
Her tone carried a hint of poverty.
There weren't many people in the apartment yet, so Luo Shu didn't want to say much to them and just smiled.
Leng Xiangyi quickly pretended to smooth things over: "Any gift is a token of my affection. My sister-in-law even helped renovate this house!"
"This decor..." The shorter woman scoffed, offering no further comment.
"The new Chinese style, it's all about the smell of wood. If this were in the countryside, it would be considered top-notch," the tall, thin woman said sarcastically.
Luo Shu could tell that while it was considered excellent in the countryside, it probably wouldn't be considered good enough for them in this big city.
“I don’t know what style Xiangyi likes. When I received the key, they said they would give it to me to take full responsibility. It’s a coincidence that Xiangyi was hospitalized right after I got the key. Zhan took care of her in the hospital for several days before she woke up,” Luo Shu said, sitting down on the sofa.
She continued, "I almost turned this place into a funeral parlor."
The three of them turned deathly pale.
Luo Shu looked around. The green, forest-style wood color scheme was a popular trend in the last two years and a style that most girls liked. Leng Xiangyi probably invited these two women over to cause trouble.
"Sister-in-law, you're joking." Leng Xiangyi's expression changed.
Luo Shu hurriedly replied, "I'm not joking. You'd better cherish your life. This renovation cost hundreds of thousands of yuan. If you die, all my money will be wasted."
The corners of her mouth twitched.
"Your money?" The short woman chuckled. "If you hadn't sat on the boss's lap, how would you have gotten a chance to swipe Xiangyi's card?"
“Being able to sit on the boss’s lap is my skill. With legs as short as yours, you’ll probably never be able to do that in your lifetime.” Luo Shu picked up a grape from the table and began to eat it slowly.
She was furious.
“People from the countryside are just different; they have no sense of aesthetics at all!” The tall, thin woman winked.
"Who said this style isn't good-looking?" A clear female voice came from outside the door.
Luo Shu could tell that Zhou Zhiyi had arrived.
Their gazes immediately fell on Zhou Zhiyi, who had arrived empty-handed at the door.
"Auntie, you're here!" Leng Xiangyi greeted her and immediately took Zhou Zhiyi's arm.
"You don't like this style?" Zhou Zhiyi asked coldly.
Leng Xiangyi pursed her lips and glanced at Luo Shu, who was nonchalantly eating grapes and staring longingly at her.
She scoffed, "It's not that I don't like it, but who decorates like this nowadays? The whole house smells of wood. But you can't blame your sister-in-law for that..."
"If you don't like it, take it apart and put it back together!" Yu Zhan's voice came from behind them.
He was dressed in a suit and tie, with a jacket hanging from his wrist, and a white shirt and vest that perfectly outlined his strong chest muscles.
Luo Shu stared at him intently. It had been a long time since she had really looked him over properly; he was still as arrogant as ever.
My husband is so handsome.
Everyone's heart trembled upon hearing this.
His tone was icy, giving off a powerful sense of pressure.
Leng Xiangyi was startled, but then became smug.
She smiled at Yu Zhan and said, "Brother Yu is so good to me! But my sister-in-law has already packed it all for me, so I won't make things difficult for her. After all, she doesn't know much about big cities."
Luo Shu popped a grape into her mouth, chuckled, and chuckled.
Zhou Zhiyi withdrew her hand in disgust, walked past her, and sat down next to Luo Shu.
Luo Shu smiled and stuffed a grape into Zhou Zhiyi's mouth: "Calm down."
"Just as you said, you're such a picky person!" Zhou Zhiyi muttered coldly, extremely angry.
Yu Zhan glanced at her, then walked towards Luo Shu, ignoring the two women beside her.
"You just said it all tastes like wood, and you don't like it?" he asked.
Leng Xiangyi sat side by side with the two women on the sofa opposite them, pursed her lips, and said, "Of course I like what my sister-in-law chose, but it smells a bit off. When our friends come over, I'm afraid it won't look presentable. Wouldn't that be embarrassing for you?"
She spoke the last sentence cautiously, afraid of stepping on Yu Zhan's landmine.
Zhou Zhiyi sneered, "Not presentable? Humph! I chose the style of the house's decoration, and your sister-in-law paid for it herself. It cost more than 400,000 yuan for the decoration and furniture. If you don't like it, I'll have someone tear it down and you can redo it tomorrow. I'll take all the furniture away, and you'll have to pay for the replacement yourself!"
Leng Xiangyi and the other two were terrified!
Was the decorating style not chosen by Luo Shu?
She paid for it?
Luo Shu knew long ago that this was a hot potato, and she couldn't just take it on directly. If she did, it would only bring a lot of trouble.
Therefore, she specially invited Zhou Zhiyi over at that time.
Leng Xiangyi was afraid that the Yu family would be dissatisfied with her, so she decided to let the Yu family get involved in the matter as well, which would be the best of both worlds.
"Auntie, I..." She wanted to explain something, but couldn't say anything.
"Four hundred thousand is hardly impressive. I wonder how much money Xiangyi has in her account?" Luo Shu said calmly.
Leng Xiangyi's card naturally didn't have much money; even if it did, it was given to her by the men there.
She hasn't gone to work yet, still hoping that Luo Shu will be ousted by her and she can take over.
“Your sister-in-law has never spent a single penny of my money. She paid for it voluntarily. Xiangyi, I have already repaid your kindness.” Yu Zhan hung the above-mentioned items on the side of the sofa, crossed his legs, and looked around the interior of the apartment.
Luo Shu has good taste; at least Yu Zhan likes it a lot.
"Brother Yu, that's not what I meant!" Leng Xiangyi's eyes reddened as she sobbed, trying to salvage the situation.
"Mr. Yu, we were blind and didn't notice..." the tall, thin woman hurriedly explained.
"Yes, actually this style is quite comfortable." Knowing that Yu Zhan was not good at speaking, the short woman quickly lowered her posture.
Indeed, birds of a feather flock together.
