Chapter 35: Need to be cleaned up
Sheng Baili ran out of the storage room in a panic.
I don’t know if it was because she felt guilty, but her whole face turned red.
That's not right. I just looked at a few photos of him. Why should I feel guilty about it?
Sheng Baili stood in the cold wind for a while, then suddenly raised his hand and hit his cheek.
[Xiao Baili, calm down!] Haicha tried to wake her up.
【Taking medicine to torture yourself. 】
Calmly, calmly, Sheng Baili walked calmly to the lakeside.
She looked to the side and saw Lu Yuanjia and Lu Zhouyan standing by the lake by chance.
[Oh my! The plot is about to end so soon. ]
From a distance, Sheng Baili saw Lu Yuanjia's mouth shape, as if he was saying "No one gave you a gift?"
It perfectly matches the picture in my mind just now.
...Wait, why did Lu Zhouyan leave?
Seeing Lu Zhouyan walking away, Lu Yuanjia was stunned. Then he turned around and seemed to want to pull Lu Zhouyan.
【Tea.】 Sheng Baili suddenly had an idea and 【used the beauty card.】
Haicha: “?”
[Apply to use the bathing function of the beauty card and rub Lu Yuanjia's feet with soap.] Sheng Baili spoke the instructions in full.
[OK, the "Beauty Card" function is loading. ]
Three seconds later.
Lu Yuanjia just turned around and raised his left foot to take a step forward.
Then he felt an irresistible wet and slippery sensation on the soles of his feet.
The incident happened suddenly and Lu Yuanjia lost his balance. He tried to steady himself but failed and fell backwards uncontrollably.
“Wow——”
Lu Yuanjia slipped and fell into the water, splashing a large amount of water.
"Someone come quickly! Young Master Lu fell into the lake!" the servant beside him shouted urgently.
The scene suddenly became chaotic, and the servants rushed to tell each other. In an instant, some people took towels, some looked for doctors, and some even ran to get a pacemaker and a resuscitator.
Lu Zhouyan: "......"
Such a familiar scene.
When the stretcher arrived, Lu Yuanjia had already climbed up by himself.
The lake is not deep enough to drown people.
"Oh, what happened? How did I fall into the lake for no reason?" Shen Qiuli said anxiously.
"Yes..." Lu Yuanjia didn't touch Lu Zhouyan at all, so he couldn't make trouble for him. He had to swallow the loss in silence.
"I slipped accidentally," said Lu Yuanjia.
"Be careful next time. Hurry up and change these wet clothes. Don't catch a cold." Shen Qiuli said with concern.
【Hahaha, good job! 】
[The green tea man acts pitiful all the time, he should be taught a lesson! ]
Sheng Baili curled the corners of his lips, brushed off the fame and honor, and left.
Soon, Lu Yuanjia changed into cool new clothes and appeared in the banquet hall again.
"I heard that Mr. Lu likes cars. Let's go to the parking lot to play with them someday when we have time."
"Yes, let's play together. I have a few specially modified cars that can run over 300 kilometers per hour. If you are interested, we can chat about it."
"Master Lu has seen all kinds of good cars, so don't show off."
"Hahahaha, that's true. The car we have, Mr. Lu will only have a better one."
......
The flattering words kept ringing in his ears, which slightly calmed Lu Yuanjia's anger.
Lu Yuanjia took out a gift from the side, which was the expensive celadon handle pouring pot.
"This is a gift I prepared for Brother Zhou Yan. I'll give it to him." Lu Yuanjia said with a smile.
【Oh my god, it’s coming, it’s coming. 】
Sheng Baili stared at Lu Yuanjia's movements, thinking of a countermeasure in his mind.
[Does the beauty card still have time left?] Sheng Baili asked, [I want to use the curling function to shock his hands.]
Haicha: “0.0!”
[What a smart little Baili!] Haicha exclaimed at operation 6.
[The curling iron with beauty card function is being loaded for you. 】
【Function loading...】
Five seconds later.
Lu Yuanjia walked up to Lu Zhouyan with the porcelain in his hand, the smile on his face gradually widening.
"Brother, this is me..."
Lu Yuanjia stretched out his hands and handed over the gift as he spoke.
The next second, it seemed as if electric currents were running through his hands!
Lu Yuanjia felt pain and unconsciously let go of his hand.
I thought the porcelain would fall to the ground and break into pieces, but unexpectedly Lu Zhouyan reacted very quickly and caught the porcelain in that split second.
Lu Yuanjia: “…”
Are his hands and feet being remotely controlled?
"Okay!!" Sheng Baili suddenly shouted.
"Master Zhou Yan is very skilled and responsive. He caught the porcelain that Master Yuan Jia was not holding firmly." Sheng Baili praised loudly and led the applause: "It's really amazing!"
Lu Zhouyan: "......"
The servants around her didn't realize what was happening, but seeing how excited she was and how serious she looked, they also started to applaud.
“Pah, pah, pah—”
In the banquet hall, applause suddenly broke out that was several times louder than the applause that just sang "Happy Birthday".
"Master Zhou Yan is a man of love and righteousness, generous and just, saving Master Yuan Jia's porcelain from danger." Sheng Baili spoke passionately, "He is truly like a father to a brother!"
"The brotherhood is so touching! Let us applaud their true feelings!" said Sheng Baili.
"Pa pa pa——" Hearing her say this, the servant clapped his hands and a gratified smile appeared on his face.
Even Mr. and Mrs. Lu, who were completely confused, opened their mouths into an O shape after hearing this.
Zhou Yan, this kid, actually loves Yuan Jia so much?
Lu Yuanjia: “…”
What are you thinking, you lunatic!
As he listened to people around him discussing Lu Zhouyan, his face gradually darkened.
But everyone was looking at him. Lu Yuanjia had to control his expression and said in a very frustrated tone, "I'm sorry, I didn't hold it firmly. Fortunately, Brother Zhou Yan caught it."
"Yeah." Lu Zhouyan said lightly.
[Hahaha, I am dying of laughter. Lu Yuanjia must be so angry that he must be dying.] Haicha is taking pleasure in the misfortune.
"He's going to give me drugs later." Sheng Baili said, "But I've already thought of a way."
Not long after, the dinner began.
Before drinking, she ate something to ease the tension.
He picked up the prawns, pork ribs and beef ribs and started chewing.
"Secretary Sheng." A voice suddenly came.
Lu Yuanjia stood aside like a ghost.
"Why did you come to the Lu family's birthday party?" Lu Yuanjia asked himself, "Oh, you changed jobs to Zhouyan Technology, right? You went to see Lu Zhouyan again."
Sheng Baili continued to gnaw on the spareribs without saying anything.
Lu Yuanjia moved his eyes downward from the girl's delicate and pretty profile and saw...
Lu Yuanjia frowned and looked at it for a few more seconds until he was sure of it.
"Your long-distance boyfriend." Lu Yuanjia asked in disbelief, "It's Lu Zhouyan."
Sheng Baili noticed that he was looking at her manicure, and she started to panic.
Aunt Zhang called her so urgently that Sheng Baili even forgot about her manicure.
I don’t know if the male protagonist saw it just now.
"You're wrong." Sheng Baili retracted his thumb, "No."
Lu Yuanjia thought she was treating him like a fool. Anyone could tell that Lu Zhouyan was a real Q version.
"Don't want to admit it?" Lu Yuanjia said, "It's Lu Zhouyan who doesn't want to make you public."
There was a hint of pity in his eyes when he looked at Sheng Baili.
Sheng Baili: “…”
"Yuanjia." Shen Qiuli called him from behind, "Come over and have dinner."
Finally sent this plague god away.
[Cha Cha, can the beauty card help remove the nails?] Sheng Baili asked.
[No, only manicure. ]
[It's okay. The male lead didn't say anything just now, so he probably didn't see it.] Haicha said.
Sheng Baili picked up the bowl and drank a mouthful of corn, pork ribs and kelp soup. When he looked up again, the servant had already brought the wine to the table.
Sheng Baili subconsciously looked in the direction of Lu Zhouyan, but found that he seemed to be looking at her as well. The moment their eyes met, Lu Zhouyan smiled silently.
Sheng Baili: “…”
Please do not spy on the secretary during off-duty hours.
"Today, November 10th, is Yuanjia's birthday. Thank you all for coming to the Lu family to celebrate together!" Shen Qiuli said, "Please have fun and enjoy yourself."
The melodious sound of violin flows slowly in the hall.
Everyone at the table began to clink their glasses and chat with laughter.
Sheng Baili stared at Lu Yuanjia's actions, and immediately became alert when he saw him order the servant beside him to fetch a new bottle of wine.
[It’s about to begin, it’s about to begin, the young master is about to make trouble. 】
Lu Yuanjia held the new bottle of wine, smiled and poured himself a glass. Then he took the bottle and went to find Lu Zhouyan and poured a glass for him as well.
In the original plot, this wine bottle has a secret mechanism. Pressing the switch to the left will result in normal wine, while pressing the switch to the right will result in drugged wine.
Afraid that the male protagonist would drink the drugged wine. Sheng Baili uses the skill card.
【System, use the "Telekinesis Card". 】
[Okay, I am activating the "Telekinesis Card" for you. The card can be used twice, each time is limited to 5 seconds. After 5 seconds, the host will return to the original position. Please be informed. ]
Soon, the card became effective.
In an instant, everyone around was motionless, as if they were frozen.
Sheng Baili was shocked.
What an awesome feature!
Time was limited, so Sheng Baili immediately stood up and ran over to exchange the positions of the two people's wine glasses.
[Countdown, 5 seconds, 4 seconds, 3 seconds...] The cold electronic voice kept broadcasting.
Ahhhh too fast.
Sheng Baili screamed in his heart.
She should have come closer before using the card!
The countdown ticked away in my mind, as if a bomb was about to explode.
Sheng Baili's heart was beating like a drum, and her hands were shaking when she came to the table.
Sheng Baili picked up Lu Zhouyan's wine glass and reached for Lu Yuanjia's wine glass.
She stood on tiptoe, and in a flash, she accidentally spilled the wine in her hand.
The wine quickly flowed along the tablecloth and spread to the ground. The floor of the banquet hall was polished to a reflective finish. A nervous Sheng Baili stepped on the wine with his right foot, and his body became unstable, his foot slipped, and he fell straight backwards!
The pain I imagined did not come, but there was a firm and strong touch under my butt, which was a bit hard and prickly.
Sheng Baili: “?”
She lowered her head and saw a pair of long, slender and powerful legs.
The black suit pants and leather shoes looked familiar; it was Lu Zhouyan's.
Sheng Baili turned her head stiffly, and met the male protagonist's cold and dark eyes.
How did you end up sitting on the boss's lap?
Sheng Baili stood up in panic and subconsciously wanted to apologize.
But it was very quiet around me. Oh, I forgot that Lu Zhouyan was also frozen.
Sheng Baili stood up as if nothing had happened and was about to continue what he was doing.
[Time is up, now teleport the host back to the original location...]
Sheng Baili: “Nonono!”
After another blink of an eye, Sheng Baili returned to his seat with a somewhat dull expression.
[Is it comfortable to sit on the male lead's thigh? ] Haicha asked.
Sheng Baili: “…”
She looked at Lu Zhouyan again with a guilty conscience.
Lu Zhouyan didn't look at her this time. He lowered his head and looked down.
Is there money on the ground?
I don't know what he is looking at.
There was no time to observe more. Sheng Baili learned her lesson this time. She walked to Lu Yuanjia's side and used the card again.
[OK, we are activating the Telekinesis Card for your second time. Please wait...]
Two seconds later, the people around were frozen again.
All the people turned into motionless wooden figures.
The wine glass was within reach, and Sheng Baili reached out and quickly replaced the glass. This time there was no mistake again, and it only took her 1 second to complete it!
Sheng Baili let out a long sigh.
[5 seconds, 4 seconds remaining...]
In her peripheral vision, she seemed to see someone blink, but it must have been an illusion.
Lu Zhouyan was still standing there with his head down picking up the gold. His lips were straight and his cold face was expressionless.
Sheng Baili walked up to Lu Zhouyan and held his face with both hands.
"I'm sorry for sitting on you just now, but considering that I've helped you so many times tonight, please don't hold it against me." Sheng Baili held his face, his eyes darting up and down brazenly.
[What's wrong with a secretary looking at the boss's photo album?]
[You dare to laugh at her and make her blush, hahahaha now I can’t even move.]
Lu Zhouyan: "......"
Still needs to be cleaned up.
