33 033 I am looking forward to it
◎Suite.◎
When Ren Lu said this, there was no hint of humiliation or reluctance on her face. On the contrary, she had a bright smile on her face, a very generous attitude, and a tone full of ridicule.
As soon as he finished speaking, the tense atmosphere dissipated, and everyone looked at Huo Xiao one after another. Although he didn't say anything, his playful attitude was already obvious.
Some people looked at each other and couldn't help whispering that Mrs. Lu was very clever.
Obviously, she was being ridiculed and treated as a plaything, but she didn't mind at all. On the contrary, she turned the people who ridiculed her into a laughing stock.
After hanging out with this group of so-called elites for a long time, Ren Lu had already figured out the rules of the game.
These people all seem to be business leaders, no matter they are capable upstarts or young masters of old wealthy families. When they are working on projects, they all act like decent human beings, but when they are playing, they take off their masks and turn into beasts in human clothing, revealing their bad and perverted natures.
When you are with them, you will be targeted and ridiculed. Begging for mercy in pain is the worst option, because the more painful others are, the happier psychopaths like Huo Xiao will be.
His happiness is built on the suffering of others.
Of course, directly rising up in resistance is not a good idea either, as it will arouse their bellicosity and lead to a fight, with the defeated party suffering a miserable fate.
Ren Lu followed his topic, but dragged Huo Xiao, the provocateur, into the water, and even ridiculed him back, making it impossible for Huo Xiao to vent his anger openly.
Everyone is joking, whoever gets angry first loses.
"I don't have the habit of dressing up as a woman." Huo Xiao almost broke his teeth before he squeezed out these words.
In fact, Ren Lu had deviated the topic to such an extent that no matter what response he made, he would seem particularly clownish.
But if you don't answer, it's more like a tacit agreement.
It was clearly he who mocked first, but after Ren Lu responded, the situation was reversed in an instant and he became a complete laughing stock.
"Really? It doesn't matter. Just have fun." Ren Lu tilted her head and said sincerely.
After she finished speaking, she leaned towards Lu Sinian. The man understood what she meant without any words. He naturally took off the earring on his right ear and threw it on the chips. Then he pushed down all the chips in front of him and chose □□. Everyone at the table exclaimed.
"I'll follow." He said these two words casually, and then without paying attention to other people's reactions, he turned around and whispered to Ren Lu.
"Mrs. Lu, it's been two years since you retired from the secretariat, but your public relations skills are still improving." He praised casually.
When Ren Lu was Lu Sinian's secretary, she was the epitome of "all-powerful and perfect".
Not only do they have to deal with the strange protagonists that appear around Lu Sinian at any time, but they also have to do public relations for him. Although the Lu family has a public relations department, a big villain like Lu Sinian may cause a whirlpool of public opinion at any time and anywhere. At this time, there is no time to hand it over to the public relations department for handling, so it depends on the on-the-spot reaction.
Every time, Ren Lu performed the role perfectly. Of course, she handled her own public relations crisis very well this time, and found the most powerful way to fight back at the fastest speed.
"Of course. If you want to maintain a stable position, you have to be precise in your methods." Ren Lu raised her eyebrows and said confidently.
Lu Sinian laughed: "Not only must it be accurate, but it must also be ruthless."
Ren Lu didn't say anything, just responded with a smile.
There was nothing wrong with what Ms. Lu said. Not only did she think so, she also did so. She just avoided the word "cruel" because she was afraid of making men think too much.
After all, she actually uses the same method on the person beside her, which is steady, ruthless and accurate.
"Do you think you can win?" Ren Lu changed the subject.
Lu Sinian knocked on the table and shook his head: "No."
"Why? Mr. Lu has no confidence?"
Ren Lu was very surprised at this unexpected answer.
She didn't expect that Lu Sinian actually felt that he couldn't win. After all, he had a perfect record against Huo Xiao.
"He can't beat me in business. I can't beat him at the poker table." The man's tone was firm.
He was silent for a few seconds, then added, "It's strange to say, I've played cards with him a few times, but I've never won. Even in other games besides the mall, I've mostly lost. What do you think is the reason?"
When Ren Lu heard this, she suddenly felt guilty.
Of course she knew why. It was because of Huo Xiao's aura as the male protagonist. Lu Sinian was his control group and his stepping stone.
When playing other games, you naturally have to step on Lu Sinian to get to the top, so as to create a sense of excitement.
And finally, in the business battlefield, defeating Lu Sinian in one fell swoop and allowing Huo Xiao to win the final victory is the climax of the plot development.
It's just that Lu Sinian died early and was unable to realize this. Huo Xiao could only devour Lu Sinian's business empire bit by bit after his death.
"Maybe this is the law of conservation of energy. Other games are not important. If you keep winning in business, then he will just be a loser." Ren Lu quickly adjusted her expression and flattered him.
With a "whoosh", Huo Xiao, who was sitting opposite him, also chose to go all in, and all the chips were pushed onto the table.
Both sides opened their cards, and the result was completely opposite to what was expected. Lu Sinian's cards were bigger than Huo Xiao's.
Huo Xiao lost.
There was silence at first, and then there was applause, and everyone congratulated Lu Sinian on winning the game.
"No wonder Mr. Lu is so calm and composed. It turns out he is sure to win."
"Mr. Huo, I told you that Old Wu has been in a bad state recently. He is not good at anything. He is almost going crazy for that shabby company that is on the decline. You are taking over his lousy company. Hey——"
"Fortune is something that is really hard to predict. It depends on time and fate!"
The spectators around started talking about it, and there were quite a few who spoke after the fact, sounding like they were trying to comfort Huo Xiao with good intentions, but in fact, every word they said was meant to seduce him.
It was obvious that Old Wu was a man who was already in a state of decline, but Huo Xiao still came over eagerly to take his cards, and was even willing to fight with him to force him out. In the end, he took a bad hand of cards and ended up with such an outcome, which was extremely funny.
"Impossible! How could your cards be better?" Huo Xiao had also looked at the cards. Old Wu had very good cards, and he thought he was sure to win.
I just didn’t expect that Lu Sinian had better cards. The probability of this happening is almost impossible.
"Mr. Huo, if you are willing to gamble, you must admit defeat." Lu Sinian reminded him slowly.
Huo Xiao clenched his teeth, the veins on his forehead popped out, and he clenched his fists. He wanted to explode, but he finally held back.
Of course, even if he wanted to attack Lu Sinian, he was powerless.
Lu Sinian is not a soft persimmon like Lao Wu who can be bullied by others. If anyone dares to touch him, the bodyguards around him will not be pushovers.
"It seems that Mr. Lu has good luck tonight." Huo Xiao sat back, his back not as straight as before, as if he had given up.
"Of course, the goddess of luck is by my side." Lu Sinian hugged Ren Lu and said with a double entendre.
"Oh~ Mr. Lu and his wife are indeed in love."
"Hahaha, Mr. Lu loves his wife very much."
There was a commotion all around, and a lady of etiquette came forward with a tray, laid out the chips and placed all next to Lu Sinian. Finally, the lady of etiquette walked back to Huo Xiao, held the tray, and motioned for him to hand over the last chip.
Huo Xiao was silent for a moment. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he did not play tricks and threw Ren Lu's earrings into the tray.
"This time is an exception. You beat Huo Xiao." Ren Lu's tone was somewhat cheerful, as if she was really happy for him.
The man shook the champagne beside him and corrected him with a smile: "There is no exception. I just beat Old Wu."
After saying this, he raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Everyone, take your time and have fun. Ren Lu and I are leaving first." He stood up with Ren Lu and said goodbye to the guests.
Some others wanted to stop him. After all, this looked like a dinner for eating, drinking and having fun, but in fact everyone was mainly here to discuss business.
Lu Sinian has several big projects underway, and if they cooperate with him they can get a piece of the pie, so naturally everyone wants to get involved.
But seeing how he was hugging Ren Lu tightly, everyone understood and some even started teasing him.
"Boss Lu is going to have a real night life now."
Lu Sinian didn't go back, but took Ren Lu to the top floor suite.
Standing at the door of the room, Ren Lu stopped, took a deep breath, and prepared herself mentally.
The man opened the door and walked in first. Noticing her pause, he turned around and looked at her leisurely.
"What's wrong? This is the room designed by Mrs. Lu herself. You don't dare to come in? Or are you feeling homesick?" His tone was full of sarcasm.
This is Lu Sinian’s exclusive room. When he was single, it was in business style, more like the presidential suite of a hotel, comfortable and pleasant.
Later, Ren Lu came to work as his secretary, and their relationship gradually changed from superiors and subordinates to an ambiguous relationship. Then Lu Sinian gave her a task.
Convert the presidential suite on the cruise ship into a couple-themed one.
His request was just four short words: make me happy.
These were his exact words. When Ren Lu asked again, the man didn't answer, but just stared at her.
Ren Lu had no choice but to contact the designer and start proposing a plan. She submitted version after version of the design, but the man’s review results were usually just two words: not enough.
Then the design draft gradually changed from a romantic stream of consciousness to something simpler and cruder, until finally even things like whips and candles were designed, and there were even iron chains and anklets, with so many variations.
Ren Lu was forced into a corner. More than a dozen versions had been returned. Even if she and several top designers got together, they were no match for Zhuge Liang. They were completely at their wit's end.
Finally, she gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, and simply built a "golden house" full of various elements according to the plot of some forced love novels, in order to secretly hide the canary.
After all, this man is quite perverted. What if he just wants to play the captivity game?
But Lu Sinian was still not satisfied, and even frowned for the first time. He looked at Ren Lu with a little disappointment and made some criticisms.
"Secretary Ren, you seem to have misunderstood me. I don't have a habit of abusing people."
Ren Lu had no choice but to go back with the design draft. After three days of hard thinking, she added more interesting functions and installed various small mechanisms. She put all the candles and chains whose uses were obvious at a glance into the mechanisms, and the appearance returned to the stream of consciousness atmosphere.
Finally, this version of the design was approved. The man gave a rare smile and said seven words of encouragement: "Secretary Ren, I am looking forward to it."
