Chapter 53 Chapter 53 Took out a cat's tail...
Didn't Lu Zhouyan say it was on the way?
What kind of road is this? I'm running from the west to the east of the city.
"Oh, so that's it." Sheng Baili said hesitantly.
Koike: "Yeah, maybe there's something urgent going on."
Sheng Baili was silent for two seconds, then raised the small cake in his hand and said, "Assistant Chi, do you want to eat together?"
"No." Chi Dao said, "Just let Secretary Sheng eat it."
"All right."
Sheng Baili took the small cake and went to find Jiang Jiang.
Jiang Jiang saw the familiar packaging and his eyes lit up. "Wow, how did you buy it from so far away?"
Sheng Baili coughed lightly and said vaguely, "General Lu was on his way and helped me bring two."
"How does he know you want to eat this?" Jiang Jiang wondered.
"Hmm..." Sheng Baili blinked and said honestly, "He said he saw my Weibo."
"I sent a Weibo post at noon saying I wanted to eat this."
"Wow wow wow!" Jiang Jiang was very excited, and looked like he was touched. "So cute."
Jiang Jiangrao made a meaningful expression.
Sheng Baili: "...QwQ"
Before eating the cake, Sheng Baili took a few photos.
Then she remembered something and handed the phone to Jiang Jiang.
"Jiang Jiang, can you take some photos of me and the cake?"
"Sure." Jiang Jiang took the phone and took a lot of photos.
"You are so beautiful." Jiang Jiang patted and praised.
The two of them divided the two small cakes.
Sheng Baili rubbed his stomach and ate happily.
"By the way, Xiaoli." Jiang Jiang said, "Chinese New Year is coming soon. What are your plans for the New Year? Where is your hometown? Are you going back home?"
The words just came out.
Jiang Jiang thought of the video he had seen before.
Sheng Baili's mother yelled at her and asked for money.
Jiang Jiang's heart skipped a beat, realizing that she had said something wrong. "I'm sorry, I was just asking casually."
"Ah." Sheng Baili didn't react for a moment as to why she suddenly apologized.
After thinking for two seconds, Sheng Baili smiled and said, "It's okay."
"I signed up for a group tour to City G before the New Year." Sheng Baili said his plan, "I will probably stay in the dormitory after I come back from the tour."
"Because my mom and the others... probably won't ask me to go back for the New Year's Eve dinner, and I won't go back to cause trouble." Sheng Baili said, "It's good to be in the dormitory. No one cares about me, and I'm free."
After saying this, Sheng Baili smiled with his eyes tilted, as if he didn't feel sad at all.
It may also be that we have become accustomed to it.
When thousands of families were reunited with lights on, she was alone.
Although her good friend said these words with a smile, Jiang Jiang felt an indescribable suffocation, or to be more precise, heartache.
"Then you..." Jiang Jiang was a little sad but didn't show it, "You can come to me when you get bored."
"You can also come to my house for New Year's Eve dinner."
-
After saying goodbye to Jiang Jiang, Sheng Baili returned to the dormitory and packed a portion of seafood fried rice from the cafeteria.
The sweet taste of the cake seemed to still linger in her mouth.
Sheng Baili looked back at the Weibo post he sent at noon.
There are not many views and likes.
How did Lu Zhouyan get it?
Maybe it’s being monitored by big data again.
Sheng Baili was not too fussed. The editor posted a Weibo with pictures of the cake that he took and a picture of himself and the cake that Jiang Jiang took.
[Thank you to the kind person who bought me the cake. It was really delicious. I appreciate the money spent.]
[Why not post it on Moments? Then the male lead can see it directly. 】
"That's too deliberate." Sheng Baili said, "I believe we are destined to be together. He will definitely be able to see it."
At the same time.
The old house of the Lu family.
Tonight is a formal family dinner. Lu Quan finally broke the ice with his family and came back with his wife to have dinner.
Lu Zhouyan is back too.
The Lu family gathered together and it was very lively.
"Zhou Yan." Shen Qiuli smiled and found Lu Zhou Yan, "How is your work going recently? Are you feeling comfortable in the new company?"
"Very good." Lu Zhouyan said in a light voice.
"Yeah, that's good." Shen Qiuli changed the subject, "I want to go to Paris to see an exhibition recently. There is a very famous large-scale auction, and I want to participate."
Lu Zhouyan understood her hint and took out his cell phone to transfer 3 million yuan.
Shen Qiuli received the transfer message and frowned when he saw the amount.
"Didn't you give 5 million every half a month before, Zhou Yan?" Shen Qiuli asked.
"Now you have a son, don't you?" Lu Zhouyan curled his lips in an ambiguous tone, "I gave too much, and my brother will probably say that I put pressure on him again."
"The pressure is too great, and it would be bad if I caught a cold," Lu Zhouyan said nonchalantly.
Shen Qiuli: "......"
Sure enough, after what happened with Lu Yuanjia, no matter how Shen Qiuli tried to please her openly or humble himself secretly, the mother and son still had a grudge against each other.
It's impossible to go back to the past.
Shen Qiuli stroked her long hair on her chest, said nothing, and walked away in her high heels.
The family dinner will start soon.
The Lu family does not have the habit of not talking while eating or sleeping.
The meal lasted a long time, and everyone ate slowly and politely, chatting from time to time.
"Zhou Yan." Grandpa Lu looked at his outstanding grandson with a look of satisfaction in his eyes.
But this grandson of his is good in every way, except for two minor flaws.
One is that he doesn't have a romantic relationship. No matter how his family urges him, it's useless as he devotes himself to his work. Lu Tonghui is both relieved and worried. He is already 26 years old and other people would have two children, but Lu Zhouyan still doesn't have a romantic relationship.
Another problem is that he is too cold and indifferent to his family members, although he appears to be very gentle and polite, and often has a smile on his face.
But Lu Tonghui knew that he still exuded a cold and indifferent aura, which did not conflict with his smile.
Lu Tonghui shook his head and called out Lu Zhouyan's name.
"What's the matter, Grandpa?"
"Grandpa was not attentive before. He was wrong." Lu Tonghui said, "Your engagement with the girl from the Ji family was cancelled."
Lu Zhouyan: "It has nothing to do with you."
"How about I introduce a few more to you?"
"......" Lu Zhouyan picked up the water beside him and took a sip.
"I have no thoughts about getting married for now."
"You can try them out first, maybe there will be one you like." Lu Tonghui advised him, "If that doesn't work, just treat it as making friends."
"......" Lu Zhouyan picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"Sorry, Grandpa."
Lu Tonghui gave him a strange look and said, "Zhou Yan, tell me honestly, do you have any unspeakable secrets?"
Lu Tonghui spoke in a lower and lower voice, making sure that only he and Lu Zhouyan could hear what he said.
Lu Zhouyan smiled helplessly, "Grandpa, I'm normal, there's nothing wrong with my body."
"Ah." Lu Tonghui was half-believing and half-doubting, "Then you..."
Lu Tonghui thought of something and suddenly reacted, his voice getting a little louder due to excitement.
"You have someone you like"
As soon as Lu Tonghui asked this question, most people at the table turned their eyes to him.
Everyone looked at Lu Zhouyan, curious about his answer.
Lu Zhouyan turned a blind eye, lowered his eyes and did not answer.
Not denying it means tacitly admitting it. Lu Tonghui thought that he was embarrassed, so he did not admit it directly.
"Zhou Yan." Shen Qiuli, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but interrupt, asking knowingly: "What kind of girl are you looking for? I don't emphasize being well-matched, but if the family conditions are too different, it's unlikely that you will be able to stay together until the end."
"Really?"
Lu Zhouyan glanced vaguely in the direction of Lu Quan.
Lu Tonghui naturally thought of Lu Quan.
He had regretted once for hitting a duck with a stick, and now his ideas have changed a little.
"It doesn't matter what family it is." Lu Tonghui said, "It's up to Zhou Yan if he likes him and feels it's suitable."
Shen Qiuli was displeased by these words. She curled her lips in embarrassment, feeling disdainful of the drama of Cinderella marrying into a wealthy family.
"It's almost the New Year." Lu Tonghui said, "Zhou Yan, do you have a chance to bring the girl back for dinner?"
"She is going out to play during the New Year." said Lu Zhouyan.
"Oh, that's fine too, you go and accompany her." Lu Tonghui said.
Lu Zhouyan tactically raised his hand and took a sip of soup.
"We're not together yet."
"......?" Old Master Lu widened his eyes and couldn't help but hit him with the cane in his hand.
"What are you doing?" This was the first time Lu Tonghui spoke to Lu Zhouyan in such a disappointed tone.
"You can't catch up with someone you like"
"You are so handsome, and you have so much money in your card. Is it all just air? Don't you know how to use it?"
"Give them money to spend, buy them bags, cars, and houses!"
Lu Tonghui taught him like an elder.
Lu Zhouyan lowered his head, his gaze uncertain.
"Did you hear me? Work hard for me!" Lu Tonghui was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, "Bring the person home to meet me as soon as possible."
Lu Zhouyan recalled Lu Tonghui's birthday party, when Sheng Baili was working as a maid at home, and thought that you might have met him.
Lu Zhouyan said nothing and finished the soup in the bowl.
After dinner.
It was rare for Lu Quan to come back, and Mr. Lu organized everyone to take a group photo together at the gate.
Lu Quan stood next to Mr. Lu, and the two men moved closer after a long absence.
Lu Zhouyan did not go to the middle, but stood behind the crowd, at the very edge, and gave a casual smile to the camera.
"Zhou Yan." After taking the photo, Lu Quan called Lu Zhou Yan.
“Let’s take one too.”
"Yeah, okay."
The photographer was taking pictures of someone else, and the housekeeper came over and said, "Master Lu, let me take pictures for you."
Lu Zhouyan casually handed the camera over to the housekeeper.
The housekeeper took the phone.
""
My eyes uncontrollably fell on the photo that appeared in the lower left corner.
The butler tried his best to conceal the excitement in his eyes, pretending to be calm, but his finger had already pointed to the photo.
In the photo, a girl is holding a cake in both hands, with her long, slightly curly chestnut hair hanging down gently. She is wearing a plush jacket and a checkered pink and brown scarf around her neck. She has a small face and a pointed chin.
Her cheeks were glowing rosy and she looked very healthy, like a plump peach.
The housekeeper's heart was filled with shock.
Isn't this Secretary Sheng who is beside President Lu?
"Have you finished shooting?" Lu Quan asked.
"Oh, take two more pictures!" the housekeeper said hurriedly.
Lu Zhouyan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw the butler's expression as if he had discovered a shocking secret.
"Young Master." The butler respectfully handed Lu Zhouyan's cell phone over.
Seeing that the housekeeper seemed to be hesitant to speak, Lu Zhouyan asked casually, "What do you want to say?"
The butler wanted to endure it...but couldn't.
"Master," the housekeeper hinted, "the pastry chef at home can make any kind of cake."
Lu Zhouyan: “?”
The butler lowered his voice, his eyes filled with emotion, as if tears were flowing down his cheeks.
"I saw it all," said the housekeeper. "The young lady is very beautiful."
Lu Zhouyan: "......"
Lu Zhouyan couldn't find an excuse to talk nonsense, so he simply didn't answer. After saying a few vague words, he returned to the hall with his mobile phone.
-
S University dormitory.
Sheng Baili was bored in the dormitory. After cleaning the entire dormitory, she opened the closet and sorted out her clothes.
[I’m going on a trip soon, let’s see what to wear. 】
【But no matter what you wear, you will look great in photos. 】
Sheng Baili thought it made sense, so he picked out the clothes he wanted to take away and placed them on the empty bed.
Noticing a few unopened express boxes, Sheng Baili bent down and picked them up.
......They are those messy clothes that Haicha bought before.
That day, the express delivery was unexpectedly delayed by Lu Zhou. Sheng Baili was so embarrassed that he threw the express box in a corner and ignored it when he came back. Now he finally got up the courage to open it.
"These are all good things you bought!" said Sheng Baili.
Sea tea: "QAQ"
[Just open it and take a look. We are all adults now, so why are you so shy?]
[The ones I picked are really beautiful, pretty and cute, don't be shy, host. ]
[You don’t have to eat chili peppers when you wear it, because people will say you are so spicy. 】
Sheng Baili: “…”
Sheng Baili opened the express package and took out the clothes calmly.
A thin slice.
It feels very smooth and soft.
The only thing is that there is very little fabric.
The top is only as wide as a palm, and the skirt barely covers the thighs.
The dress was even more excessive, with a low-cut design and lace that was sexy but also showed a little flesh.
In addition, there are small accessories such as cat ears, cat tails, thigh rings, black silk, etc.
Sheng Baili swallowed and suddenly realized that he might still be too conservative.
The fabric is so soft and thin that it feels uncomfortable to hold in your hand, as if you are holding a landmine.
It would be a pity to lose it, but it would be an eyesore to keep it here. She happened to have another card, so she tried the function of this card.
Sheng Baili thought about it, shouted a command, and put the clothes into the sea of consciousness.
Chau Chi Group.
After the family dinner, Lu Zhouyan rushed to the company for an emergency meeting, and now he is speaking in the conference room.
“I would like to have a quick overview of the current situation in this meeting tonight. I would like to ask all the responsible persons to briefly report the latest progress and problems encountered, which are related to the products we are about to deliver.”
......
Lu Zhouyan spoke in an orderly manner, with smooth thinking and clear logic, and everyone listened very attentively.
As he was speaking, Lu Zhouyan suddenly felt his nose itching. He remembered that there was a tissue in his suit jacket pocket and immediately reached for it.
"..."
What a touch.
Lu Zhouyan was puzzled for a moment and took out the things in his pocket.
In an instant, the whole place was silent, as if even the sound of breathing had disappeared.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Lu Zhouyan's hand.
Lu Zhouyan lowered his eyes.
I was holding a furry cat's tail in my hand.
