Chapter 55 Know Your Heart
Assistant Liu felt a headache and hurried to explain: "Ms. Xu, you misunderstood our CEO Lu. He actually wanted to ask you if you have any difficulties. As long as he can help, he will do his best."
Xu Youyou snorted and said, "You don't have to rush to make up for him. He has his own mouth."
Assistant Liu gave his boss a helpless look.
Lu Jingyao pursed his lips into a straight line, with a look of helplessness in his eyes. He used to be a big shot in the business world, but he didn't know how to deal with the current situation.
In his opinion, Xu Youyou likes money and beautiful jewelry, so he gave her expensive jewelry. Isn't this just giving her what she likes? Why is Xu Youyou still unhappy?
"So what exactly do you want? Money? House? Car? You can just tell me directly." Lu Jingyao said.
Assistant Liu couldn't help but cover his forehead.
Xu Youyou felt offended and said, "Mr. Lu, since you are not here to thank me sincerely, please leave."
The two bodyguards on the side took two steps forward.
Lu Jingyao's handsome face was completely confused at this time: "You saved my life, I want to thank you, what did I do wrong?"
Xu Youyou said: "If you don't know how to respect others, I won't accept any money you offer me."
Xu Youyou picked up the gift box on the table and wanted to return it to him. As soon as she held it in her hands, she felt it was very heavy.
Lu Jingyao didn't take it and said, "I won't take back what I give away."
After Lu Jingyao said this, he quickly walked out of the Xu family's gate without waiting for the bodyguard to urge him.
As they took the elevator downstairs, the puzzled look on Lu Jingyao's face did not diminish at all. He asked Assistant Liu: "When we were in the United States, we asked her to help pretend to be my girlfriend and gave her a set of jewelry. She was obviously very happy. Why is she so unhappy now? Is she prejudiced against me?"
Assistant Liu: …
Assistant Liu said helplessly: "Boss Lu, if you want to please a girl, you have to be more humble."
Lu Jingyao immediately frowned and retorted: "Who wants to please her? I just want to repay her for saving my life."
Assistant Liu looked at his CEO's red ears and understood, but agreed, "Yes, Mr. Lu, you just want to get along well with your savior and make her feel your gratitude, not to pursue the girl you like."
Lu Jingyao wanted to reprimand his assistant immediately, but his heart skipped a beat.
He couldn't help but recall the stunning moment he saw Xu Youyou coming down the stairs in a burgundy dress before attending a cocktail party abroad.
I also remember the joy I felt when I was suddenly found after someone plotted against me and I didn't know whether I was dead or alive.
At that time, Xu Youyou thought he was unconscious, but in fact he could hear the sounds around him. He also secretly opened his eyes and saw Xu Youyou's face as delicate as white porcelain. However, he was in such a mess at that time that he chose to continue pretending to be unconscious like an ostrich.
Is all this really because he likes Xu Youyou? Would he, Lu Jingyao, like a woman who loves money and is vain? Lu Jingyao closed his eyes. He always thought that he would marry and have children with a suitable partner at the right age.
His wife does not have to be particularly beautiful, but she should be gentle, quiet, and elegant, just like his mother, or a quiet and beautiful magnolia tree.
But Xu Youyou obviously did not fit into these adjectives. She was beautiful, full of vitality, and vindictive. She was like a little leopard about to bite someone. Lu Jingyao still remembered the cunning look on Xu Youyou's face when she deliberately framed Gu Fengchuan at the auction.
"Mr. Lu, the elevator is here."
The elevator had already reached the first floor, but Lu Jingyao stood still. As long as his boss didn't move, Assistant Liu, as his subordinate, couldn't get off the elevator before his leader.
Watching the elevator door open and close, Lu Jingyao seemed to have made up his mind. He stepped out and said, "Assistant Liu, if you want to marry a girl... no, to repay your lifesaver, what should you do?"
Lu Jingyao thought it through. Even though Xu Youyou was vain, materialistic, shallow, and came from an orphanage, he seemed to have really fallen in love with her.
Assistant Liu has followed Lu Jingyao for three years, but this seems to be the first time he has seen him so emotionally moved by a girl. At this moment, he is like a badger that has discovered a huge secret.
"Boss Lu, pursuing..." Assistant Liu changed his words under the other party's gaze, "To repay the life-saving benefactor, you should indeed cater to his preferences. You did the right thing, but this kind of thing also requires a long-term approach. Give this today, and that tomorrow, so that there can be frequent exchanges."
Lu Jingyao looked thoughtful and said, "She just received 1.4 billion recently. I don't know what she needs. She seems to like money very much, but she didn't even open the gift I gave her today."
When Assistant Liu heard “1.4 billion” again, he still felt upset and wanted to cry. What made him even more upset was that Xu Youyou actually got another huge asset. The gift from Lu Jingyao was bought at a high premium of 1 billion.
Assistant Liu sighed in his heart countless times, there are so many people making a lot of money, why can't he be one of them.
"Mr. Lu, Miss Xu may really like money, but you should also pay attention to the tone you use when talking to her." Assistant Liu reminded carefully.
Lu Jingyao frowned slightly and said confidently: "I didn't say anything wrong today."
When Assistant Liu thought of Lu Jingyao's performance that was like a car accident scene, his forehead ached again, but he was the assistant after all, and the boss's business was the most important, so he had to say what he had to say.
"Boss, girls don't like to hear that."
Lu Jingyao paused and asked, "Then how do we talk to her?"
Assistant Liu said, "Some girls like the domineering type, but Miss Xu seems to be a person who is soft-hearted and not hard-hearted. When you talk to her, you should be gentler and not too domineering."
This normal suggestion fell into Lu Jingyao's ears, but he frowned and asked back: "How am I not gentle? Isn't it enough that I am so humble to her?"
Assistant Liu took a deep breath and calmed down after a long time. He mustered up the courage to say, "Boss Lu, don't you just want money?"
After saying this, Assistant Liu's scalp suddenly felt numb, as if he was being stared at by something extremely terrifying.
Lu Jingyao squinted his eyes at him and said, "Assistant Liu, pay attention to the way you speak."
Assistant Liu quickly explained: "Mr. Lu, the way you spoke to Miss Xu just now was like saying that she wanted your money."
Lu Jingyao's mind went blank for a moment, and then he regretted it: "Did what I said just now really make her think that way?"
Assistant Liu nodded vigorously and said, "You can't tell a girl's thoughts by asking her, you can only guess them. Your intentions are good, but you are too harsh in your words. Girls will be unhappy."
