Chapter 135 I’m Afraid He’ll Poison Me
Shen Nuo stayed with him in the hospital for two consecutive days, staying in the hospital during the day and going home to sleep at night. She originally wanted to stay with him for two more days, but she couldn't completely put the work on hand aside, so she had to go to the company first.
She also met her new assistant, who turned out to be someone she knew.
"Miss Shen!"
Xu Yuanyuan's eyes lit up when she saw her, and she pursed her lips shyly and said, "Hello, I'm the new assistant."
Shen Nuo was a little surprised at first, then he smiled and said jokingly: "Why did you suddenly think of applying for a job here when you gave up your previous job?"
"I just saw the job posting and thought I'd give it a try. I didn't expect it would just be an assistant position."
Xu Yuanyuan was a little excited. She was not outstanding among all the applicants, but she was lucky. During the final interview, the first candidate suddenly had something to do and was absent, so she successfully took advantage of this opportunity.
"I arrived at the company yesterday, but I heard that you were not in the company these days because of something. I thought I would not see you until next week."
"Originally I wasn't going to come, but someone from Lu's company is coming over today to discuss a project."
Of course, another reason was that the Fu family was going to the hospital today, and she didn't want to run into them.
However, she didn't expect that the person who came this time was Lu Zhiyi. It had been almost a month since they last met.
"Ms. Shen doesn't look like she's had a good rest." Lu Zhiyi said in a familiar tone.
Shen Nuo hummed, she looked at Xu Yuanyuan and asked, "Can you drive?"
Because there was a problem with the shopping mall built in cooperation with Lu's, she had to go and take a look at it in person, but her current condition was not very suitable for driving.
Xu Yuanyuan was a little nervous: "Yes, but I just got my driver's license..."
Lu Zhiyi smiled and said, "Don't bother, just take my car."
Shen Nuo thought about it and agreed. Otherwise, he would not feel safe letting Xu Yuanyuan drive.
Xu Yuanyuan walked to the side of the car, still hesitant about where to sit. Seeing Lu Zhiyi sitting in the back seat, she could only open the passenger door.
"I saw the news about Shen's company a few days ago and was a little worried, but I'm glad you're okay." Lu Zhiyi took the initiative to talk to her.
"Thank you for your concern." Shen Nuo responded calmly.
Seeing that she didn't want to talk about this matter, Lu Zhiyi tactfully changed the subject: "Are you free later?"
Shen Nuo raised her eyes to look at him, asking him with her eyes what was going on. Only when he told her what was going on could she be sure whether she was free or not.
Lu Zhiyi said in a relaxed tone: "A friend of mine recently opened a restaurant, and it just so happens that it opened today. He wanted me to go and support it. I wonder if Miss Chen would be willing to do him the honor of having dinner together."
Xu Yuanyuan was sitting in the front listening to their conversation in the back. She was secretly suspecting that this Mr. Lu had ulterior motives when she heard Shen Nuo ask her:
"Yuanyuan, do you want to go?"
"ah"
Xu Yuanyuan didn't react for a moment, and when she came to her senses, she realized that Shen Nuo was asking her.
She glanced at Lu Zhiyi's somewhat stiff smile, nodded without hesitation and said, "I want to go."
Shen Nuo looked at Lu Zhiyi and said politely, "Then I'm sorry to bother you again, Mr. Lu, with your money."
Lu Zhiyi: “…”
He smiled slightly, maintaining his gentlemanly demeanor and said, "No, it's my honor to have Miss Shen do me the honor."
The matter at the mall was quickly resolved, and Chen Nuo took Xu Yuanyuan and Lu Zhiyi to have a free meal. But she didn't know if it was her illusion, but when she got off the car, she felt as if something flashed in front of her eyes.
Shen Nuo didn't take it seriously. She followed Lu Zhiyi into the restaurant and found out that the friend he was talking about was actually An Ye.
She was not familiar with An Ye. The only time they had ever interacted was at the Lu family's banquet when An Ning and An Ye had a few arguments.
An Ye's face looked unhappy when he saw her. Perhaps because Lu Zhiyi was next to him, he didn't dare to lose his temper on the spot.
"Why do I feel like the way he looks at us is a little strange?" Xu Yuanyuan said in a low voice.
She thought she spoke quietly, but An Ye still heard it and looked at her.
Xu Yuanyuan quickly fell silent and smiled awkwardly.
Shen Nuo said calmly, "Maybe there's something wrong with his eyes. He might be having a seizure."
“…”
Xu Yuanyuan clearly felt that the anger in An Ye's eyes was burning even more fiercely.
Well, even if she was slow-witted, she could see that they didn't get along.
Lu Zhiyi didn't know whether it was intentional or not, he laughed and said, "So you two know each other, then I guess there's no need for me to introduce you."
"I don't know her and I can't afford her." An Ye said sarcastically.
Shen Nuo raised his eyebrows: “It seems that you are quite self-aware.”
"..." An Ye almost gritted his teeth.
He has encountered a lot of troubles recently, and almost every one of them is related to Shen Nuo. First, An Ning joined the company and squeezed his living space in the company, and then his father wanted An Shuyue to get engaged to Shen Huai. An Ye was unwilling. Ever since he knew that An Shuyue was not his biological sister, he realized that his love for her was not just a brother's love for his sister.
But her heart was with Shen Huai, and she had a big fight with him because of something he disagreed with.
Chen Nuo let out a light click of her tongue. She said that the name of this restaurant was "Yeyue", which looked more like a nightclub than a restaurant. It turned out to be An Ye's little idea.
"Mr. An, why didn't your sister come?" Shen Nuo asked casually.
Her words undoubtedly hit him hard. No matter which sister it was, it would be enough to make him upset.
An Ye pulled the corner of his mouth with a forced smile: "Don't bother with that."
"Why, did you have any grudges in the past?"
Lu Zhiyi jokingly said, "It seems I did something bad with good intentions."
Having said that, he showed no remorse at all, instead he seemed to be enjoying the show.
Shen Nuo sneered and said, "Yeah, if I fight him here, you, as the middleman, will have to pay for the medical expenses."
“Ahem…”
Lu Zhiyi choked on his saliva and said awkwardly, "It was just a joke."
An Ye really didn't want to face Shen Nuo here, so he said with a serious face that he would go and get busy and left the private room.
Shen Nuo looked at Lu Zhiyi: "Didn't you just return to China? How did you know him?"
"At that time, he was studying abroad. After all, we were all in the same circle and often got together, so we naturally became familiar with each other."
Lu Zhiyi handed her the menu very gentlemanly, but Shen Nuo didn't take it.
"I dare not order it, for fear that he would poison me."
Lu Zhiyi: “…”
Xu Yuanyuan couldn't help laughing out loud. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she quickly blushed and bowed her head to apologize.
"Why would he open a restaurant when he's not a good young master?"
"Don't you know that An Shuyue's birthday is in a few days? This is the gift he prepared for her."
After listening to Lu Zhiyi's explanation, Shen Nuo picked up the juice on the table and thought: I'm afraid it was juggling the ball.
