Chapter 60 Chapter 60 Anyu, am I usually scary? ...
Ye Anyu: [Brother, good morning. P.S. I forgot to mention that I woke up so early!]
"So cute." Lu Mingzhou replied with a message: [Good morning.]
Assistant Liao just heard these words when he pushed open the door and stuck his head out. He saw that Mr. Lu, who was usually serious, was not only smiling, but also grinning from ear to ear. He suspected that he was dazzled, rubbed his eyes, and looked again. Mr. Lu was still grinning from ear to ear.
The sun rises from the west.
Assistant Liao shouted loudly: "Boss Lu!"
Lu Mingzhou suddenly woke up, immediately closed his mouth, regained his seriousness, and glanced at Assistant Liao.
Assistant Liao's heart trembled at this look, and he hurriedly explained: "Mr. Lu, I just knocked on the door, and when I saw that there was no answer, I opened the door." He only opened the door and looked inside, and did not come in.
Lu Mingzhou retracted his gaze, put down his phone, and said, "Come in."
Assistant Liao came in trotting, handed the schedule to Lu Mingzhou, and said, "Mr. Lu, this is today's schedule, please take a look." Assistant Liao just wanted Mr. Lu to finish reading it quickly so that he could get out. He felt that the head on his neck would be in danger if he stayed here for another second, because Mr. Lu's look just now was really murderous.
In the past, Mr. Lu would just glance over the schedule and let him go, but today, he stared at the schedule for a long time, then asked, "Can I not attend this meeting tonight?"
Assistant Liao thought to himself: What’s going on?
Lu Mingzhou asked again: "Do I have to participate in this?"
Assistant Liao finally reacted and said, "You don't have to participate in this." You are the boss, you can participate if you want to, and you don't have to participate if you don't want to. He, a small assistant, trembled in fear.
Lu Mingzhou seemed very satisfied with this answer. He nodded and said, "Then let's cancel this schedule."
When Assistant Liao walked out of the office, he was still a little confused. Not only did the sun rise from the west today, it also set in the east, which was completely out of character.
When Ye Anyu said that in the morning, Lu Mingzhou felt that it made a lot of sense. In the past, he had nothing to do when he got home, but now that he had Anyu at home, why should he stay in the company?
Lu Mingzhou has always had a strong execution ability, so he decided to start coming home early tonight.
Unfortunately, things did not go as he wished. He did not fulfill his idea of returning home early tonight. Although he did not work overtime, Ye Anyu had to work overtime. He was careless in the morning and did not see that the evening meeting was a meeting between Ye Anyu's team and the neighboring team.
After get off work in the afternoon, when Assistant Liao packed up and prepared to go home, he found that Mr. Lu in the office had not come out yet. The boss had not left yet, and he, an assistant, did not dare to leave.
That night, Assistant Liao followed Lu Mingzhou to the conference room with his head hung low. Assistant Liao's mood throughout the day changed from cloudy in the morning to sunny, and then from sunny to heavy rain in the evening.
Before the meeting started, Ye Anyu's cell phone suddenly lit up. Ye Anyu hurriedly covered the screen on the table. She raised her head and met Lu Mingzhou's eyes at the front of the conference table. He gently pointed with his head.
Ye Anyu looked around and saw that her colleagues were all playing with their phones. She clicked on the message on her phone guiltily.
Lu Mingzhou: [I can't get off work on time tonight.]
Ye Anyu looked up at Lu Mingzhou, lowered his head and sent Lu Mingzhou a few funny emojis, and then sent: [You are the boss, you can't just go home without working overtime. ]
Lu Mingzhou: [That won’t work. The boss has to accompany the boss lady.]
It was hard for Ye Anyu to imagine that one day he would actually say such words, and in such an occasion. Ye Anyu suddenly felt very guilty, as if he was having an affair in public.
At seven o'clock in the evening, the meeting officially began. The project leader was talking about the project situation on the projector in front. Ye Anyu secretly glanced at Lu Mingzhou who was sitting at the end of the conference table. He was wearing gold-rimmed glasses, had a serious face, and listened very attentively.
"Anyu, most of the characters in this project were designed by you. Can you tell us about your design direction and design concept?" While Ye Anyu was distracted, the project leader Chen Lingyu, who was giving a speech, suddenly asked.
Ye Anyu didn't react for a moment. Chen Lingyu called her again and repeated what he had just said. Ye Anyu finally came to her senses.
She stood up as usual, but was stopped by Chen Lingyu: "Anyu, just sit down and talk." Ming'an Group is a relatively humane company. Ye Anyu had noticed this in the previous meetings. Just now, when her name was suddenly called, she subconsciously wanted to stand up.
She sat there and turned her head to glance at Lu Mingzhou. The conference room was silent. Those who didn't know would think that she was afraid of Lu Mingzhou. Obviously, Chen Lingyu thought so. He smiled and said, "An Yu, it's okay. Just speak boldly."
Ye Anyu nodded and finally spoke, "Hello everyone, I'm sure everyone has been hearing about the "plagiarism" issue recently. I clarified on Weibo that the inspiration for the 'Wang Shi' series came from my first love. My first love was a very outstanding person and also very handsome. When I was creating the series, I happened to watch a historical documentary, and the face of my first love flashed in my mind, and then I painted the 'Wang Shi' series."
After Ye Anyu finished speaking, she glanced at Lu Mingzhou somewhat embarrassedly. She mentioned Lu Mingzhou in public, and in front of him. Even though she didn't say his name, she still felt like a thief.
Chen Lingyu asked, "An Yu, your first love is so outstanding, he must have achieved success now."
Ye Anyu glanced at Lu Mingzhou again, then nodded and said, "My first love is very successful in his career now."
Gossipy eyes from all directions in the conference room focused on her, and she felt a little uncomfortable for a moment. Fortunately, Chen Lingyu changed the subject in time: "An Yu, besides these, what are your other design concepts?"
Ye Anyu breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly, "The following ones are all based on 'Master Wang' and the theme of our project, and are designed for users. For example, this one has a similar style to the 'Master Wang' series, but it looks very cute. This is because a large number of young people in contemporary society like cats and dogs, or have them as cute pets..."
"The above is my design direction and concept. Thank you."
Before he finished speaking, the conference room erupted in applause.
In the crowd, Ye Anyu and Lu Mingzhou's eyes met. Lu Mingzhou nodded approvingly and opened his mouth. Although Ye Anyu didn't understand lip reading, she knew that what he said was great.
Ye Anyu was very happy.
After the meeting, Lu Mingzhou, who was sitting at the front row, did not move. In previous meetings, everyone would leave only after Lu Mingzhou left. Lu Mingzhou was always punctual and would never stay for a moment after the meeting, but today he was very abnormal.
Everyone sat motionless in their seats, stealthily glancing at Lu Mingzhou out of the corner of their eyes.
It wasn't that Lu Mingzhou stayed on purpose, but he was distracted again. Ye Anyu's words just now kept echoing in his mind. He didn't know that a long time ago, this was the image of him in her mind. The more he thought about him, the happier he became.
It was not until Assistant Liao came to remind him that he reacted and said, "Let's adjourn the meeting."
Before leaving, he looked at Ye Anyu and tapped his phone to make a call.
As soon as Lu Mingzhou left, the meeting room was as usual, with everyone leaving one after another to go home. However, Lin Shuang ran to Ye Anyu, took her arm, and asked curiously, "Anyu, is your first love really that handsome?"
Ye Anyu nodded. After hearing this, Lin Shuang swept away the fatigue of the whole day. Her eyes lit up and she asked, "Really? Do you have any photos?"
Ye Anyu sighed, everyone really likes to look at handsome guys, but she can't show her this photo, otherwise it will be exposed.
Ye Anyu said: "No photos."
Lin Shuang was visibly disappointed. Ye Anyu continued, "But..."
Lin Shuang: "But what?"
Ye Anyu: "But he looks quite similar to our Mr. Lu."
Lin Shuang: "If he looks like Mr. Lu, then he must be a handsome guy. After all, Mr. Lu is quite handsome, but he always has a cold face and looks scary."
She had seen Lu Mingzhou smile, and he looked much more approachable than when he had a cold face.
"Mr. Lu."
Mr. Lu? Hearing this, Lin Shuang was shocked and her heart sank. She seemed to have said something bad about him just now. When she raised her head, she saw Mr. Lu standing in the corridor not far away.
Shouldn't he have left? Why did he suddenly appear? Lin Shuang recalled the volume of his words just now. Mr. Lu probably didn't hear it...
She smiled awkwardly at Lu Mingzhou, and was about to run away with Ye Anyu, but was stopped by Lu Mingzhou: "Anyu, come to my office."
Lin Shuang breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't her, but why did President Lu look for An Yu? Could it be because of An Yu's speech at the meeting? Lin Shuang thought about it and there was only one possibility. "An Yu, then I'll go back first."
When Lin Shuang's back disappeared at the end of the corridor, Ye Anyu said with a smile: "Boss Lu, what's wrong? Do you want to talk to me about something?"
Lu Mingzhou didn't say anything and just took her hand. Ye Anyu was startled and quickly looked around. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no one around.
Ye Anyu followed him to his office. This was not her first time in Lu Mingzhou's office, but she always just glanced at it in a hurry every time. Today, Ye Anyu was able to take a closer look.
Looking around, the entire office was neat and tidy. There was a sofa at the entrance, a table next to the sofa, and inside was his desk. On the desk were computers, documents and other items. Behind the desk was a whole bookcase, which was densely packed with many books. These books looked weathered, indicating that Lu Mingzhou had read them a lot.
What was different from before was that there were two more vases on the small table next to the sofa and on the desk. One vase contained multi-headed roses, and the other vase contained wind chimes. This was inconsistent with Lu Mingzhou's usual style.
Ye Anyu walked to the desk, leaned in close to smell the flowers, and smelled a faint fragrance.
"Does it look good?" Lu Mingzhou walked to her side and asked.
Ye Anyu nodded and continued, "As long as you like it."
So these flowers were specially prepared for her? Ye Anyu looked up at Lu Mingzhou, and Lu Mingzhou continued, "You can come and sit with me often in the future."
Ye Anyu refused, saying that no matter how beautiful she was, she couldn't take such a big risk to come here. Lu Mingzhou shook his head helplessly.
Ye Anyu asked, "Brother, are you going to get off work? If so, I'll go back and pack my things, and we'll go back together."
Lu Mingzhou was more than happy to accept this. Ye Anyu was about to go downstairs to pack up her things. As soon as she took a step, she heard someone behind her ask, "Anyu, am I usually scary?"
