But she couldn't help but wonder, how could she sleep like this?
The warmth and touch of his palm are still on my skin.
Lu Youxi didn't want to appear too embarrassed in front of Zhou Shuyan, so he tried his best to restrain himself from trembling.
Zhou Shuyan stood up and said to Lu Youxi, "Good night."
"Good night." Lu Youxi finally spoke reluctantly.
Her voice sounded delicate and a little hoarse.
This sound almost made Zhou Shuyan unable to move his legs.
Zhou Shuyan took a deep breath and finally convinced himself to go back to the first floor to sleep.
But naturally, neither of them slept well that night.
They could hear each other clearly every time they turned over.
The next morning at 6 o'clock, it was a winter morning and the sky was not yet fully bright at this time, with only a little deep blue light showing.
The two of them got up.
When we were at Lu's house last night, we had agreed to go back for dinner in the morning.
It was dark outside, so the lights were on inside.
When Lu Youxi had packed up and was about to go downstairs, Zhou Shuyan was already waiting at the stairs.
She raised her head slightly, saw Lu Youxi, and said softly, "Morning."
Lu Youxi paused, thinking that this man had obviously tossed and turned all night last night, and she heard it all.
It’s obvious that he didn’t sleep well, how come he’s still so energetic now?
He stood tall and straight, looking so noble and handsome as he stood at the bottom of the stairs waiting for her.
That temperament was not limited by the small environment at all.
Lu Youxi couldn't help but wonder, how could this person be so good-looking and have such a good temperament? As Lu Zhenguo once said, when he was in Hexing Village, he thought Zhou Shuyan had a good temperament and thought that all people in the city were like this.
But when I came to the imperial capital, I found that Zhou Shuyan was the only one like this.
The rest are actually pretty much the same.
"Good morning." Lu Youxi said as he walked down the stairs.
"You..." Zhou Shuyan subconsciously wanted to ask her how she slept last night, but then he remembered that Lu Youxi had also tossed and turned all night, and he heard it all.
He was afraid that if he talked about it, Lu Youxi would glare at him again.
So he touched his nose and swallowed the rest of the words.
"What?" Lu Youxi wondered why he said one word and then stopped talking. Zhou Shuyan changed the subject temporarily, "I wanted to ask, do you want to go to pay New Year's greetings today?"
"Not really. I only have business dealings with Cheng Zhou right now. But I don't know the addresses of Vice President Xiang and his people." Lu Youxi explained without questioning him, "Just call to wish them a happy new year in the morning."
The business has not yet been expanded, so I have more contact with Xiang Shihong and others.
Apart from them and Professor Zhang Xucheng, there was no one else in the imperial capital who needed to be greeted during the New Year.
Lu Youxi and Zhou Shuyan took the subway back to Lu's house in the morning.
Because many people go back to their hometowns to celebrate the New Year, there are far fewer people in the imperial capital than usual.
They left early and had a rare opportunity to ride on an empty subway.
When I returned to the Lu family, Xu Jingmin was still there.
Liu Yusu enthusiastically invited me to stay and have breakfast with her.
Thinking that there was no one at home and she would be alone when she returned, Xu Jingmin couldn't help but agree.
As soon as they entered the door, Lu Youxi and Zhou Shuyan greeted the three elders.
Liu Yusu smiled and gave the New Year's money to Zhou Shuyan and Lu Youxi.
Most of the time, he would sneak into Lu Youxi's room and give it to her at night when the two elders of the Lu family were asleep.
This was the first time that Lu Youxi received New Year's money openly on the morning of the first day of the new year.
"Mom, I'm so old now, why are you still giving me New Year's money?" Lu Youxi said with a smile.
"No matter how old you are, you are still my daughter. As long as I am still here, I will continue to give you New Year's money." Liu Yusu said seriously.
Now Liu Yusu seems to want to make up for all the grievances that Lu Youxi had suffered in the past.
It is not appropriate to cry during the Chinese New Year. Lu Youxi held back her tears, smiled and nodded to accept it, without refusing.
But Zhou Shuyan didn’t expect that he would be able to receive it.
Xu Jingmin thought Zhou Shuyan was so rich, how could he have the nerve to accept money from his mother-in-law, so she said, "Youxi is just in college, he is young. But Shuyan is so old, why are you giving him anything?"
"Same treatment as Youxi. Whatever Youxi has, Shuyan also has." Liu Yusu said with a smile.
Xu Jingmin was also prepared and took out two red envelopes from her bag.
One letter was given to Lu Youxi, one letter was given to Lu Youxue, and he said to Zhou Shuyan mercilessly, "You don't have it."
Zhou Shuyan: “…”
"Oh, how come you have prepared even the things you need to learn?" Liu Yusu felt embarrassed.
"Here, only those who are educated are serious children, and he should be the most educated." Xu Jingmin said with a smile, "Don't be polite to me. It's New Year's Day, and we all want good luck."
After breakfast, Lu Youxi called everyone one by one to wish them a happy new year.
I first called Professor Zhang Xucheng to wish him a happy new year, and then I called Xiang Shihong.
Next came Shen Yanqing and Yan Lixu.
Zhou Shuyan: “…”
The president’s wife called them to wish them a happy new year. It would be fine if Xiang Shihong didn’t know about it, but Shen Yanqing and Yan Lixu didn’t know if they were scared to death.
Shen Yanqing and Yan Lixu were really scared to death.
Shen Yanqing repeatedly said that he should be the one calling to wish a happy new year.
Lu Youxi was stunned by these words.
She thought that although Shen Yanqing was the R&D manager and the title on his business card was not as high as hers, he was the R&D manager of Chengzhou Group, which made a difference.
He is also older than Lu Youxi and has more work experience than Lu Youxi.
No matter how you look at it, it should be her who is wishing Shen Yanqing a happy new year.
But Shen Yanqing's attitude was so sincere, as if he should really be the one wishing Lu Youxi a happy new year.
It's rare that Lu Youxi is confused.
When it came to Yan Lixu, the reaction was the same.
"Boss...Boss..." Yan Lixu stuttered on the phone.
Lu Youxi thought to himself, what is he talking about? Lu Youxi didn't turn on the phone, and Zhou Shuyan couldn't hear what was said on the other end of the phone.
However, from what Lu Youxi said when he was talking to Shen Yanqing just now, I roughly knew what Shen Yanqing said on the phone.
Zhou Shuyan thought that Shen Yanqing's desire to survive was still very strong.
As for Yan Lixu, Zhou Shuyan hadn't heard anything yet.
"Boss Lu!" Yan Lixu managed to get back on track. "I was just about to call you to wish you a happy new year, but I didn't expect you to call me first. It was really my mistake."
Lu Youxi: “…”
No, you Chengzhou has invested in so many companies, do you still take the initiative to call and wish them a happy new year? Could it be that she entered the industry too late in her previous life, so she doesn't know the social etiquette of the workplace in this era?
Is it different from later generations? (End of this chapter)
