Chapter 886 I'll be waiting for you downstairs at the company
The car drove onto the highway.
Lu Yuanqiu approached the car window and dialed Zheng Yifeng's number. So far, he and Bai Qingxia had gone to Zhucheng first, and there were still some things to explain in Lucheng.
"Bai Qingxia and I are going to Zhucheng first. When you leave, please don't forget Ruan Yueru."
"You...don't you trust us to do things?"
Zheng Yifeng only said two words before being interrupted by Su Miaomiao's decisive voice.
Lu Yuanqiu smiled and said, "Of course I'm at ease, that's why I came to you instead of Zhong Jincheng."
Zheng Yifeng: "He's right next to me."
Lu Yuanqiu: "Huh?"
Zheng Yifeng: "Just kidding."
Lu Yuanqiu: "That's hilarious."
Lu Yuanqiu didn't laugh; it was Bai Qingxia who laughed. He turned his head to look at her, and Bai Qingxia's thin pink lips were still glistening with moisture. If it weren't for the inconvenience of being in the car, Bai Qingxia's lips would have been red for a week and wouldn't have recovered for an hour or two.
Upon meeting Lu Yuanqiu's gaze, Bai Qingxia's smile vanished instantly. She turned her head to look out the window on the other side, still immersed in the embarrassment of kissing in front of others.
The embarrassment intensifies when she realizes she wouldn't have done this before.
Seeing her embarrassed, Lu Yuanqiu chuckled and hung up the phone with Zheng Yifeng.
Sometimes, being too rough with Bai Qingxia would make one feel sorry for her, but being too gentle with her would not satisfy one's lust. Who could resist the urge to invade the heart of a robber when facing such a quiet and gentle girl?
Lu Yuanqiu will probably never lack this excessive possessiveness towards Bai Qingxia in his lifetime.
"How can we help Yueyue get through this?" Bai Qingxia suddenly turned her head.
Lu Yuanqiu sighed: "It's only been a little over a month. Who can truly get over it? Let alone a little over a month, even if it's half a year, a year, ten years... I still won't truly let go."
Lu Douqing turned around and quietly looked at the two of them. Lu Yuanqiu noticed that his third sister seemed to be affected by their emotions, so he gave her a forced smile.
Third Sister smiled.
Xiao Li's voice came from the driver's seat: "In this life, you should always have a few people who are unforgettable in your heart. There is no need to actively forget them, but there is no need to think about them all the time either. As time goes by, you will find that their spirit has naturally become one with you. At that time, thinking about them will be a peaceful and natural thing."
"It's like meeting an old friend you haven't seen in a long time; you just bring an empty glass when you're drinking together."
Lu Yuanqiu rarely heard Xiao Li Feibiao speak so much at once.
"Does Fei have a story?"
Xiao Li's chest heaved slightly: "In the past, some comrades left, brothers who had risked their lives for me. Now, when I think back on them, I feel like they never left, because I will never forget them, so they will always be there."
As he spoke his last words, his right hand left the steering wheel, his fingertips pointing at his chest.
Lu Yuanqiu sat quietly for a moment, then nodded gently.
The car pulled up in front of the villa in Zhucheng. After the door opened, Lu Douqing and Bai Qingxia carried their luggage and ran towards the villa. Lu Yuanqiu put his arm around the driver's side window and said with a smile, "Don't rush to stop the car, Fei-ge."
"What?" Little Li looked at him through his sunglasses.
How many days are left on the contract?
"Two weeks."
"I want to continue this relationship with you indefinitely, and I'll double the pay, how about it?"
Little Li paused for a moment, then asked, "Conditions?"
Lu Yuanqiu chuckled upon hearing this: "There aren't any conditions. When you're protecting Bai Qingxia, could you also protect me, or someone else around me? I'll also actively help you contact doctors to treat your daughter. You saved Bai Qingxia before, and I offered you a bonus, but you didn't accept it. Surely you have no reason not to agree to a follow-up contract? You want to make money, don't you?"
Little Li shook his head: "I don't want double the pay, can you give me weekends off?"
Lu Yuanqiu smiled: "Of course!"
Little Li nodded: "Okay." He then tilted his head back: "Your bag."
Lu Yuanqiu looked out the car window and his expression hardened: "That wretched Consort Xia, won't you help me carry it?"
He opened the car door, grabbed his bag, and stormed into the villa.
Looking through the rearview mirror, Xiao Li Feibiao watched until he saw Lu Yuanqiu enter the villa before taking out his phone to take a selfie and sending it to his daughter.
Dad: Dad found a new job, so I don't have to travel for work all the time anymore. I can come home to be with you on Saturdays and Sundays! [Photo]
His message bubbles and text are all pink, very girly.
Xiao Li turned the steering wheel and drove the car toward the garage.
...
Nine days later, starting from midnight, Xia Yiwan Noodles officially went on sale at various sales points in Zhucheng.
As the general manager, Lu Yuanqiu only learned about this from a passing employee. He called Bai Qingxia, but no one answered. The two of them had been busy with their own things at the company these past few days, and sometimes they didn't even see each other once a day.
Lu Yuanqiu quickly took the elevator to his office and asked Li Qingxuan about the matter.
"Whose order is this? Wasn't it supposed to go on sale on the 30th? Why is it a week earlier?"
Upon hearing this, Li Qingxuan stood up with a smile on her face.
Lu Yuanqiu said unhappily, "Still laughing."
Li Qingxuan's smile faded slightly as she said with a hint of grievance, "President Lu, this was President Bai's decision made secretly. She's been working overtime these past few days to prepare everything a week in advance so that we can go on sale today."
Lu Yuanqiu was puzzled: "Why?"
Li Qingxuan: "Because today is your birthday."
Lu Yuanqiu's eyes widened in surprise, and his mind went blank for a few seconds.
He suddenly opened his eyes wide and exclaimed "Oh!" He rubbed his forehead and gradually realized what was happening... It turns out that people can really be so busy that they completely forget what day it is.
"Today is the 23rd..." Lu Yuanqiu said, somewhat realizing.
Li Qingxuan nodded: "Yes, you've been so busy you've probably forgotten."
"Have you forgotten...where is she?"
Li Qingxuan gestured to the desk in the office: "President Bai just left you a note."
Lu Yuanqiu walked into the office. He had just taken off his coat when he noticed a small note on his desk. He picked it up; every single character was written in the same handwriting as in his old class notes—sharp yet delicate.
I'll wait for you downstairs at the company.
Lu Yuanqiu picked up the coat on the table again, and without even putting it on, he carried it downstairs by his arm. After getting out of the elevator, he indeed saw Bai Qingxia standing at the company entrance in the distance.
The Rolls-Royce stopped behind her, and Xiao Li Feibiao, dressed in a suit, stood beside the hood of the car with his arms crossed.
Bai Qingxia's hairstyle today is long, straight black hair with wispy bangs. She is wearing a Chanel-style top and a black cotton skirt with a slit, revealing her shapely and slender legs covered by leggings. She is carrying a small white bag in front of her, and her overall appearance is gentle and serene, with a faint smile on her lips.
Lu Yuanqiu stared at her for a moment, then smiled, put on the black coat on his arm, and walked over there.
"They prepared a birthday surprise for me a week in advance. I almost thought I was still half asleep."
