Chapter 60: Desire If Xiao Tan wants to eat something else, she might have to hold back a little longer...
Lu Wangshan's actions were more decisive than his words.
Soon, the news of the withdrawal of capital injection spread throughout the business community. Many investors interpreted this as evidence of major problems within the Yuan Group, and the stock price plummeted to the limit from that afternoon.
Yuan Qinrong was not involved in the group's affairs and was unable to learn about these bloody undercurrents in time. When she received a call from Yuan Siliu, she was accompanying Yuan Hongren in the hospital for a routine check-up.
The doctor has been saying the same thing for ten years: for a person like Yuan Hongren who was born with a disease, recovery is much more difficult than for ordinary people. The best expectation is to be able to take care of himself, but taking care of himself requires his family to be willing to let go.
Like pets at home, they also need to be socialized when they are young.
Unfortunately, when Yuan Hongren was a child, Yuan Qinrong was too afraid that he would be hurt, and too worried that others would know that she had given birth to such a child, so she missed this best opportunity.
After prescribing the usual medicine, Yuan Qinrong took Yuan Hongren away.
The bustling crowd in the hospital made him nervous and scared, and suddenly someone stumbled and knocked Yuan Hongren down, forcing him to scream loudly.
Yuan Qinrong rushed forward and hugged Yuan Hongren almost reflexively, then angrily shouted at the woman who had tripped, "You don't have eyes when you walk! You can't see when you bump into someone!"
The woman's husband wanted to say sorry, but he got scolded and immediately got angry.
Yuan Hongren stood there motionless, and began to scream and cry again.
The woman tugged at her husband's arm, raised her chin to signal, and whispered, "Let's go now. Stop arguing with them."
After being dragged away, the man turned around and pointed at Yuan Qinrong, cursing, "You better be polite! No wonder you gave birth to such a stupid son!"
It was at this time that Yuan Siliu called.
Yuan Qinrong, disregarding her image and rudely cursing at the man's back, then took a deep breath and answered the phone: "Brother."
Yuan Siliu started to criticize directly. He was used to not giving this stupid sister a good face and ordered her to go home immediately.
…
After she settled Yuan Hongren, she drove back to Yuan's house.
As soon as he pushed the door open, he noticed the tense atmosphere in the house. Before he could say anything, Yuan Fang had already thrown the cup in his hand out with force: "What the hell have you done again!?"
Yuan Qinrong listened in confusion as they talked about seven years ago and Lu Wangshan. She also had no idea how she had offended Lu Wangshan.
It was not until the person Yuan Fang sent to investigate came back and reported that Lu Wangshan had rushed to Guangdong overnight after attending the school anniversary yesterday that Yuan Qinrong's heart suddenly jumped, as if she had grasped something.
When the old stories were exposed to the fresh sunlight, the dust began to float in the transparent beam of light.
"Maybe...it's related to Xiao Tan."
Yuan Qinrong hesitated and stammered as she recounted what happened that year.
"How could you do such a thing!?"
Yuan Siliu poked her forehead with his finger, forcing her to step back. "When Hongren was first diagnosed with a problem, I advised you to abandon him, but you refused to listen! Now, the incident he indirectly caused is causing turmoil in the entire group!"
"Can you just abandon me like that? Brother, you have three children, but I only have Hongren!"
Yuan Qinrong began to cry again, her face flushed with grievance, shame and anger. "Besides, if Lu Wangshan doesn't want to invest, then he won't invest. Can't our group find another way to attract investment?"
Yuan Siliu took a deep breath in anger, but the curse that followed barely escaped his lips: "You caused this! Go and apologize to Yun Tan and Lu Wangshan and beg for mercy! And Yun Qihui, tell him to call his daughter and stop whispering in Lu Wangshan's ear!"
At this time, Yuan Qinrong could no longer think about how Yun Tan was related to Lu Wangshan again.
She hurriedly called Yun Qihui back from school and asked him to call Yun Tan immediately.
When talking about what happened back then, Yun Qihui still had the baggage that a scholar couldn't let go of. He hesitated and sighed, "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place!"
"Yun Qihui, are you going to blame me again?!"
Yuan Qinrong finally vented her anger all day on Yun Qihui, "If I couldn't count on you, if Hongren wasn't like this, do you think I would be willing to do this?"
The love she had for Yun Qihui when she was young had long been exhausted in the passing of time.
"Are you going to call Yun Qihui or not?" She screamed in a sharp voice, tears streaming down her face. "If you don't, we'll get divorced!"
-
Yun Tan had blocked the phone numbers of Yun Qihui and Yuan Qinrong as soon as he left Beijing, but he left out Yun Jin.
Because she and Yun Jin never contacted each other.
So, when he finally got off work after a day of irritating meetings and saw Yun Jin's call, Yun Tan felt extremely nauseous.
She hung up without hesitation and blocked the person who had slipped through the net.
The world returned to peace.
Lu Wangshan seemed to be very busy all day today. Yun Tan didn't receive a video call from him until she finished taking a shower.
You really know how to pick the right time.
Yun Tan hurriedly wrapped herself in a bath towel and wanted to find some clothes to put on, but then she changed her mind and realized that Lu Wangshan was now her legitimate boyfriend, so there was nothing to be shy about.
So I put on my nightgown with peace of mind and connected the video.
Looking at the background behind Lu Wangshan, he was still in the office, holding a pen and looking down at the project book.
They had been waiting for the video call to be connected for quite a long time, so he didn't even notice it was connected. Yun Tan didn't remind him, but just leaned against the head of the bed and watched him quietly.
Until Lu Wangshan raised his eyes, his gaze swept across the screen, and then suddenly paused.
His eyes fell on the light pink and purple silk nightgown she was wearing. The low-saturation color made her skin look more like a piece of smooth mutton-fat jade.
It has officially entered autumn in Beijing, and Lu Wangshan is now wearing a woolen suit over his shirt.
It's hard not to be stunned when you suddenly see this scene.
His Adam's apple rolled as he spoke his first words: "Aren't you cold wearing this?"
Yuntan held his cheek and smiled.
Her cat-like temperament that easily bewitched people suddenly burst out again, her narrow eyes were upturned at the corners, and her light amber pupils contained a subtle and understanding smile.
"Mommy, can you please stop being so hypocritical?"
All the annoyance that Lu Wangshan had been dealing with the Yuan father and son and various media inquiries all day was washed away at this moment.
He suddenly smiled, threw the pen aside, leaned back in his chair, and just looked at Yuntan.
The dim office allowed the light from the computer screen to fall more clearly on his face, outlining sharp, profound lines and contours. His pride and arrogance began to fight with his primitive savagery, creating an overly fascinating sense of contradiction.
Yuntan hadn't looked at him so carefully for a long time.
It was as if the whole body was electrocuted, and morality began to decline uncontrollably.
"Did you miss me?" Lu Wangshan said in a very charming voice.
Yun Tan looked up, not looking at him, and pretended not to care: "Didn't we just meet this morning?"
Lu Wangshan laughed: "You are quite hypocritical, baby."
Yun Tan silently pinched her hot earlobe. Lu Wangshan's voice was like a speaker with a subwoofer next to her ear. She was simply bombarded by the word "baby".
At the same time, another text message suddenly popped up: "Xiao Tan, it's Dad, call Dad back."
From an unfamiliar number.
She frowned slightly, but Lu Wangshan still noticed and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Ah, no." She paused and said, "It's just a little strange. Yun Qihui contacted me suddenly, and Yun Jin called me just now."
"What did he say?"
"I didn't answer. I blocked it."
Lu Wangshan curled his lips: "Maybe he is here to beg for mercy from you."
"What?"
Lu Wangshan told her the key points of what happened this afternoon.
Yun Tan looked a little confused, and it took him a while to react. He uttered an "Ah," "It's been a long time... Isn't this too much of a fuss? Will your parents scold you?"
"Things like this won't go away easily with time."
Lu Wangshan's voice was low, and it was like a gentle soothing voice that came through many years. "Don't worry about me. My family doesn't like the Yuan family's usual style of doing things. It's nothing more than maintaining a superficial relationship. Besides..."
He paused for a moment, and Yun Tan asked, "What's more?"
"Besides, the financial problems encountered by Yuan Group this time may not be that simple."
He cut ties with Yuan Fang and Yuan Siliu in front of them today, and was prepared for a complete break between the two families. He didn't expect that they would swallow this and even think of ways to contact Yun Tan to try to resolve the issue.
Yuan Fang has never been such a flexible person, and Lu Wangshan also felt from this moment that all this was not simple. They had asked for a 50 billion investment at the beginning, so no one knew how big the funding gap was behind this 50 billion.
Yun Tan became more and more confused as he listened: "What do you mean?"
"It's just my guess, I can't say for sure now."
Lu Wangshan's tone suddenly changed and he said, "Girlfriend."
Yuntan's ears felt hot for no apparent reason: "What's wrong?"
"I'm coming to Guangdong this weekend. Are you not on a business trip?"
Yun Tan deeply felt the magic of time. Those simple times were gone forever, so just hearing Lu Wangshan's plain words had already set off a frenzy of vivid memories of the past in his mind.
"No business trip." Yun Tan pretended to be calm.
The two of them just stared at each other quietly for a while.
Yuntan's face became redder and redder. She didn't know why Guangdong was still so hot at the end of October. Even her neck turned red and a thin layer of steam appeared from the heat.
But Lu Wangshan laughed at this time.
He looked very bewitching, with a hint of the lewd charm of a mature man. He shook his head lightly, helplessly yet amusedly saying, "Xiao Tan, we're together now, can you please stop pretending to be serious?"
“…………”
-
This week, Yun Tan dreamed of Lu Wangshan almost every night, as if he had been bewitched.
She still occasionally received harassment from Yun Qihui and Yuan Qinrong, but she hung up and blocked all unfamiliar calls from Beijing, which did not affect her mood.
On Friday, I woke up from a sticky and hot dream again.
There were beads of sweat on Yuntan's fair neck, and her hair was also stuck to it. She rolled around in the quilt in a bit of annoyance, making her hair a mess before she finally got up.
After taking a shower and washing his hair, he stood in front of the wardrobe and picked out clothes for a long time - Lu Wangshan was coming to Guangdong tonight.
Maybe it was because she hadn't been in a relationship for too long, or maybe it was because of Lu Wangshan's teasing last time, Yun Tan was embarrassed to wear her usual style of clothes. In the end, she put on a windbreaker properly, with a black miniskirt and high heels underneath, looking smart and neat, yet a little sexy.
Yuntan picked up his bag and rushed to work.
All the colleagues she met along the way praised her for how beautiful she looked today.
Yun Tan looked at herself in the elevator mirror and thought to herself, I didn’t dress too excessively for Lu Wangshan, right?
She just put on more makeup than usual, light makeup, just foundation, lipstick, eyebrows, eyeliner, mascara, and two extra clusters of false eyelashes at the corners of her eyes.
It shouldn't be very obvious, right?
It wasn't until late in the evening that Yun Tan received a text message from Lu Wangshan: "I've boarded the plane."
Her heart suddenly trembled and began to beat violently.
I couldn't finish writing the rest of the report.
She leaned back in her chair, pretended to send a message saying "Bon voyage", and then clicked on the "China-Italy Diplomatic Relations Group" and started typing.
Yuntan: "Urgent!"
Yun Tan: "How should I go on a first date with my boyfriend who I broke up with six years ago and reconciled with?"
Elara: "Are you talking about the kind of boyfriend who had sex with you countless times while living together during a breakup?"
Jiang Zhier: "Hahahahaha Elara, stop making fun of her."
Yuntan: “…………”
Elara: "Do you think the Chinese captain will come on Friday night and you will still have a date to eat Western food and enjoy the night view?"
Elara: "Don't be so naive about men, Xiao Tan. He just came all the way here to sleep with you."
Yun Tan quickly and silently turned off the screen of his phone, looked around to make sure no colleagues were paying attention to him, then turned it back on and adjusted the screen brightness to the lowest setting.
Her heart beat faster.
Elara's new message popped up again: "Besides, I don't know what kind of person you are."
Yuntan threw the phone away with a "pop" as if it was dirty.
With a bang.
A colleague at the next desk looked over and said, "Huh?" "Why is your face so red? Are you hot?"
Yun Tan covered his face with his hands and waved at his colleagues, mumbling, "A little bit..."
These were truly the longest three hours Yuntan had ever spent, and then he took the subway to the airport to pick up his flight on time.
At the airport, Lu Wangshan stood out in the crowd. He was dressed in a neat black suit. The perfectly tailored shirt outlined his broad shoulders, and the collarbone was naturally open, revealing his chest and collarbone just right. A pair of black trousers made his legs look particularly long, and the tight belt around his waist set off his extremely superior body proportions and narrow waist.
Yun Tan's mind began to suddenly pop up images of his inverted triangle upper body lying on the bed, his arms with bulging muscles and bulging veins when he exerted force, and beads of sweat dripping down his chest and abdominal muscles.
Realizing what he was thinking, Yun Tan quickly shook his head.
It's all Elara's fault!
"Have you arrived already?"
Lu Wangshan walked to her side, hugged her in his arms very naturally, and then leaned over and kissed her very naturally.
Yuntan seemed to have returned to the youthful age of 18 when he first fell in love. A kiss made his heart beat faster and his cheeks flush.
It's been so long since I last fell in love.
"No, I just arrived not long ago."
Lu Wangshan took the bag from her and his warm fingertips slid down her arm until their fingers were intertwined.
Lu Wangshan had no intention of letting anyone disturb their world of two. He had already arranged for the car to be parked in the airport garage, so there was no need for a driver.
Lu Wangshan didn't let go of her hand until he started the car.
Just resting it on her lap.
Body temperature was transmitted through the thin windbreaker to the bare thighs.
Yuntan tilted his head to look out the window, watching the southern night gradually become brighter.
The car drove onto the expressway and went downhill after about ten minutes. Yun Tan looked at the Park Hyatt Hotel getting closer and closer in the distance, and swallowed silently.
Lu Wangshan didn't slow down until he drove past Park Hyatt.
"Ah." Yun Tan was a little confused. "Where are we going?"
"Eat."
"Eat? Oh...eat."
I almost forgot, I haven’t had dinner yet.
Yun Tan came to her senses and wanted to bite off her tongue. What a terrible reaction!
Fortunately, Lu Wangshan didn't seem to think too much about it. Yun Tan looked carefully through the rearview mirror but unexpectedly met his sight.
He just laughed.
He was wearing sunglasses under the scorching sunset and just smiled with his head tilted.
The traffic light happened to be red, so he stopped the car, turned his head to look at Yun Tan, and hooked his sunglasses down with his index finger: "If Xiao Tan wants to eat something else, I'm afraid you'll have to hold back a little longer."
In this competition of the famous work "Desire", Yuntan was completely defeated.
His teasing made her even more furious, and she finally threw herself at him, wrapping her arms around his neck and yelling, "Shut up! Lu Wangshan!"
Lu Wangshan was shaken by her and staggered from side to side, his laughter becoming intermittent.
The warm sunset shone on the two of them, casting a furry luster.
When the light turned green, he hugged Yun Tan's waist and begged for mercy: "Okay, okay, Mommy was wrong."
