Chapter 47 Chapter 47 Flirting in Public
Chapter 47
On Tuesday morning, Ruan Yan went to Qinhu Golf Course with Lu Peishi.
Mr. Tao Tianhua, the president of Haohan Group, loves golf, and the resort hotel that needs to be renovated and expanded is right next to the golf course, so they made an appointment here.
Ruan Yan knew nothing about golf, but luckily today she only needed to stand behind her boss and be a diligent, flexible secretary who knew how to read his expressions at all times.
The environment of the stadium is very good. The venue is vast, the air is fresh, and it is surrounded by lush greenery. The original beauty is displayed everywhere, giving it a feeling of being in a paradise.
No wonder these people love to come to this kind of place to enjoy themselves. Even she couldn't help but take a few deep breaths, greedily sniffing the refreshing and pure scent in the air.
When we walked into the lobby, Mr. Tao had already arrived early.
President Tao raised his hand towards them from a distance.
"Mr. Lu, I'm here." After approaching, Mr. Tao shook hands with Lu Peishi happily.
Lu Peishi bowed slightly and said, "Sorry, Mr. Tao, I'm late."
"No, no, I'm early."
Mr. Tao seems easy to talk to.
At this time, two young girls wearing polo shirts and A-line skirts walked up from behind Mr. Tao.
Mr. Tao looked at Lu Pei and said, "My daughter and her friends are here to play too. Mr. Lu, don't you mind?"
Lu Peishi smiled faintly: "Of course I don't mind."
"Let me introduce you. This is my daughter, Tao Yian. She just graduated from Jiaotong University last year with a degree in Business Administration..."
Mr. Tao’s introduction was very detailed, and the meaning was self-evident.
Lu Peishi's expression didn't change much. He just looked at the slightly shy Tao Yian politely and said, "Hello, Miss Tao."
Tao Yian stood beside Tao Tianhua, and when he looked up at the handsome and tall Lu Pei, his ears turned even redder.
She hadn't planned to come today.
Before she graduated, Tao Tianhua started taking her to various dinner parties, and after graduation, he became more active in arranging them.
Today I'm with a certain director, tomorrow I'm with a certain real estate manager, and the day after tomorrow I'm with a certain university professor...
Everyone tacitly brought their children out. On the surface, they said it was just to let the young people make more friends, but in fact they were secretly observing to see if there was a chance of becoming a marriage partner.
This kind of situation was really awkward and uncomfortable. Tao Yian felt as if he was an object that had been stripped naked and was waiting for everyone to examine and observe it, with a label attached and ready to be sold at a price.
No dignity at all.
Besides, she felt that she was still young and it was okay to fall in love, but getting married too early was really scary for her.
So she is always disgusted with similar blind date models.
This time too.
Tao Tianhua kept telling her how outstanding Lu Peishi was, how powerful the Lu family was, and how famous Wanlai was, asking her to seize the opportunity.
She felt annoyed and didn't want to go, so she went to talk to her best friend.
After hearing this, her friend smiled and comforted her: "Just think of it as a trip for fun. It's not like you have to date or get married just by meeting each other. Having a meal and meeting each other once won't be a big deal."
Following his friend's advice, Tao Yian decided to just deal with it perfunctorily, so he asked his friend to accompany him and just deal with it casually to report to Tao Tianhua.
This was what she thought before she came to Qinhu Golf Course, or before she saw Lu Peishi in person.
But sitting in the hall, Tao Tianhua gestured to the man who walked in through the door and reminded him softly, "He's here."
She looked over.
I saw that the man had handsome features, deep eyes, tall stature, and a great figure. His long legs were so strong that they moved with the wind.
She was stunned for a moment, and only came to her senses when someone came to her, and her face turned red instantly.
All the previous talks about being perfunctory and getting by were thrown out of the window.
"Hello...Mr. Lu." Tao Yian followed obediently.
Tao Tianhua then simply said to his daughter, "This is her classmate."
An understatement.
The girl next to him didn't care much and nodded lightly at Lu Peishi.
After a few more words, it was almost time, so everyone went to the stadium together.
The two little girls followed in a car behind, Tao Tianhua and his assistant sat in the front car, and Ruan Yan naturally sat with Lu Peishi in the middle of them.
Ruan Yan just glanced back inadvertently and saw Mr. Tao's daughter holding her face and whispering something to the friend beside her, her eyes looking in the direction of Lu Peishi.
Thinking back on the whole process, she guessed what Mr. Tao was actually planning under the guise of discussing cooperation.
She couldn't help but joke with him: "Mr. Lu is very popular among the elders in the marriage and love field."
Lu Peishi replied calmly: "Really? I'm just here to discuss the project today."
Ruan Yan blinked: "But maybe some people don't think so."
Lu Peishi turned to look at her. Her expression was relaxed, but her tone sounded a little off.
Is he using a smile to hide his current mood?
Could it be that she is jealous?
Retracting his gaze, Lu Peishi looked ahead and muttered to himself, "Apart from the project, I'm not interested in anything else."
Ruan Yan replied with an "oh" and stopped talking.
Lu Peishi glanced at her, chuckled, and was in a good mood.
Ruan Yan was right. Today, President Tao had other intentions. Every time Lu Peishi mentioned the villa project, before he could even say a few words, President Tao would intentionally or unintentionally turn the topic to his daughter.
"My daughter has been sensible, smart, and outstanding since she was young. We never have to worry about her grades..."
Faced with Tao Tianhua's enthusiastic praise, Tao Yian felt shy and said coquettishly: "Oh, Daddy——"
Tao Tianhua smiled and said, "Look, I'm sorry, she's just too soft-hearted and simple-minded, but it's also good this way, suitable for both home and family, Mr. Lu, don't you think?"
Lu Peishi also smiled but did not comment.
When he turned sideways, he saw Ruan Yan winking at him.
He turned his head away, pretending not to see it.
On the other side, Tao Yian swung a beautiful shot, the arc, power and landing point were impeccable.
She slowly withdrew her movements, a small hint of joy appearing at the corner of her mouth, confident but not exaggerated.
She came here today with a perfunctory attitude, so she didn't dress up at all, let alone put on makeup. She even chose her clothes here. The polo shirt and A-line skirt were so ordinary that they couldn't be more ordinary. There was nothing special about them.
If there is nothing special about her outfit, then she can only try her best to show off her other advantages.
President Tao couldn't help but applaud and said to Lu Peishi proudly, "She's been playing golf with me since she was little. Her skills are even better than mine. She was already scoring over 80 strokes when she first came of age."
Lu Peishi nodded: "Miss Tao is indeed amazing."
"That's still a long way off compared to Mr. Lu. You're almost at the level of a professional player," Mr. Tao said, adding, "My daughter doesn't have many hobbies. If Mr. Lu is free, you could bring her along to enhance our communication."
The words couldn't be more obvious.
Under normal circumstances, Tao Yian would have felt embarrassed and ashamed when Tao Tianhua actively and proactively "promoted" himself, but at this moment, facing Lu Pei, she was anxiously looking forward to his every reaction to her.
Lu Peishi still curled his lips lightly: "Mr. Tao, you are too kind. Your daughter's level seems to be not much worse than mine."
An ambiguous answer.
Tao Yian's expression was slightly disappointed, but he comforted himself that at least he did not directly refuse, which meant there was still hope.
After watching them fight for a while, Ruan Yan, who had been following behind silently, felt bored.
She couldn't join in their conversation, she wasn't interested in the content of the conversation, and most importantly, she never had the chance to use the relevant information she brought with her.
She would only occasionally hand Lu Peishi some water or a towel, which was really boring.
Just as she was suppressing the urge to yawn for the nth time, Lu Peishi in front of her suddenly turned around.
His voice was very soft and his tone was very casual: "Secretary Ruan, do you want to try it?"
Ruan Yan was slightly stunned and didn't react.
Seeing him gesture towards her with the club in his hand again, she was sure that he was asking her if she wanted to play a round of golf.
Ruan Yan didn't know what he meant by suddenly cutting herself off, so she just shook her head subconsciously: "Ah... Sorry, Mr. Lu, I don't know how to do it."
Lu Peishi smiled nonchalantly: "It's okay, try it, I can teach you."
His simple words stunned not only Ruan Yan but also several people present for several seconds.
Only then did everyone focus their attention on Lu Peishi's secretary.
She was dressed very simply in a dark blazer and straight jeans.
Perhaps it was because the sun hat she was wearing blocked most of her face, and she was following behind silently with little presence, so everyone ignored her beauty at the beginning.
At this moment, she raised her head and looked at me, her bright round eyes sparkling with water, the clear sunlight fell on her face, her skin was as white as cream, her lips were red and her teeth were white.
She is a stunning beauty.
Ruan Yan seemed very uncomfortable as she suddenly became the focus of everyone's attention.
Lu Peishi's hand was still suspended in mid-air. It seemed that he was serious. She couldn't refuse him in front of everyone, so she had to bite the bullet and take the club.
There was still a faint warmth on the metal club. Ruan Yan had never played golf before and didn't even know how to hold the club. The situation was a bit awkward for a while.
Just as she was wondering if Lu Peishi was deliberately trying to embarrass her in public, he slowly walked to her side.
"Your gesture is wrong," he whispered in my ear. "You should hold the club loosely, not too tightly."
Ruan Yan followed his instructions and tried to correct her posture.
"Put the base of your thumb toward your right shoulder, and cross your right little finger with your left middle finger." As he spoke, he actually started to instruct her.
Ruan Yan felt a cool breeze coming towards her. He gently lifted her stiff shoulders and said, "Spread your legs and bring your feet together."
He was quite professional in teaching, but Ruan Yan just couldn't concentrate.
"Bend your knees slightly and let your arms hang naturally."
He had moved behind her, his warm body bringing with it the dry, steady scent of oak moss.
Ruan Yan felt uncomfortable because she was too close to him and wanted to break free silently. However, he became even more aggressive and stretched out his strong arms, pressing them against hers. She was completely held in his arms.
The first thought that popped into her mind was - what had happened to Lu Peishi suddenly?
Doesn't he know that in the eyes of others, this scene seems as if he is flirting with his subordinates in public in a nonchalant manner?
Doesn't he care about his image at all?
