Chapter 17 Chapter 17 Hello, I am Lu Mingzhou’s wife...
In order not to be late, Ye Anyu gritted his teeth and came out of the bedroom again. Ye Anyu looked around the living room and found it was empty.
So Lu Mingzhou had already gone out, or returned to his room. Ye Anyu's eyes were fixed on the room opposite. The soundproofing in the house was very good, and Ye Anyu could not hear any sound.
This is good, I can take this opportunity to slip away. Thinking of this, Ye Anyu picked up his bag and quickly fled.
Last Friday, Ye Anyu went shopping with Feifei and the others. In order to avoid traffic jams, she parked her car at the company, so she needed to take the subway to the company today.
The moment he walked out of the community and reached the subway entrance, Ye Anyu breathed a sigh of relief.
The subway was extremely quiet on Monday. Everyone was sitting or standing in a lifeless manner. The subway that Ye Anyu took was not the one to the city center, so there were relatively fewer people. Ye Anyu found a place with few people and leaned on the carriage.
Closing her eyes, the scene of last night automatically replayed in her mind. Lu Mingzhou's low laugh exploded in her ears. Ye Anyu laughed out loud unconsciously, which was out of tune with the atmosphere of the subway and attracted the attention of everyone around her.
Someone next to her touched her and pointed at the ground. Ye Anyu looked down and saw that her bag had fallen to the ground.
She bent down to pick up the bag on the ground, and suddenly noticed countless eyes staring at her. Only then did she realize what had happened.
I guess everyone thought she was a fool for showing such a bright smile on her way to work on Monday.
Ye Anyu took out a mask from his bag and put it on quickly. Fortunately, Ye Anyu only had two stops left before getting off.
As soon as the station arrived, Ye Anyu fled the subway like the wind.
"An Yu, good morning." It was Feifei's voice.
Ye Anyu turned her head and saw Feifei following behind her. She wondered if Feifei had seen her embarrassing incident. Ye Anyu greeted Feifei guiltily, "Good morning."
"Anyu, you seem to be in a good mood today." Feifei walked to Ye Anyu's side.
No way, Feifei wouldn’t really see it, that would be too embarrassing.
Noticing Ye Anyu's hesitation, Feifei continued, "You look good today."
"Is that so?" Ye Anyu forced a smile.
"Is it because your friends like the gifts we picked out, so you are so happy?" Feifei said with a smile.
If you ask like this, then Feifei probably didn't see it. Ye Anyu immediately felt relieved and said, "Well, my friend likes it very much. Thank you very much."
"It's just a small favor, and you've already thanked him, so there's no need to thank him again, Mr. Lu." Feifei blinked at Ye Anyu.
After Feifei's reminder, I seemed to have forgotten to thank Lu Mingzhou.
But now the situation between the two of them is so awkward that I can't even avoid him, so how can I possibly thank him?
"An Yu? An Yu?" Feifei called out twice, but Ye Anyu didn't say a word.
"Ah? Sorry, my brain isn't very sharp on Monday." Ye Anyu said with a smile.
"Uh-huh, have you had breakfast yet?"
Although there is a cafeteria downstairs in the company, there are always a lot of people there every day, so Ye Anyu usually had breakfast at a breakfast shop near the community. Today, he forgot about it in a hurry. Thinking of this, Ye Anyu's stomach growled twice.
"You must not have eaten." Feifei pointed at Ye Anyu's stomach.
Ye Anyu nodded. She didn't want to squeeze into the cafeteria to eat. Fortunately, she would prepare some snacks and biscuits in the company on weekdays, so she could eat some later.
"It just so happens that I bought an extra bun this morning." After saying that, Feifei stuffed the bun into Ye Anyu's hand.
"Thanks."
The two walked side by side to the downstairs of the company and happened to meet Xiaoxiao who was waiting for the elevator. Ye Anyu greeted her, and the elevator happened to arrive at the first floor.
There was a dense row of people waiting in front of the elevator. Ye Anyu and Feifei Xiaoxiao squeezed for a long time before they got on the elevator.
The elevator was dead silent, except for one person. He looked at Ye Anyu with a smile and said, "Anyu, do you want to have lunch together?"
Before Ye Anyu could find an excuse to refuse, the elevator stopped and Xiaoxiao got off. Before leaving, she added, "It's a deal then."
At Ming'an Group, Liao Chengren held a document and today's schedule in his hands, and stood in front of the chairman's office as usual. He knocked twice, but the expected response did not come.
Perhaps Mr. Lu was too focused and didn't hear it. This kind of thing has happened before. Liao Chengren increased his strength and knocked twice again, but there was still no response.
Strange, could it be that Mr. Lu hasn't arrived yet? This shouldn't be the case. Usually, Mr. Lu is always the first person to arrive and the last to leave at the company, but today he hasn't arrived yet.
Assistant Liao returned to his seat. At nine o'clock, the other people in the office gradually sat down at their workstations, but there was still no movement in the chairman's office. Could something have happened to Mr. Lu? Normally, Mr. Lu would never come to work so late without saying hello.
At half past nine, the noisy office suddenly fell silent. Then a tall figure passed through the office and walked straight towards the chairman's office.
Assistant Liao's gaze fell on Lu Mingzhou. Lu Mingzhou's face looked very bad, and he even walked with anger.
In the years that Liao Chengren has been with Lu Mingzhou, this is the first time he has seen Lu Mingzhou come so far without saying hello, and it is also the first time he has seen Lu Mingzhou look so bad.
Perhaps not provoking Lu was always the best choice today, but unfortunately Liao Chengren did not escape.
"Assistant Liao, come in." Lu Mingzhou shouted as he entered the office.
Liao Chengren had a look of ashamedness on his face, and under the sympathetic gazes of others, he walked into the office with a righteous look.
"Mr. Lu, this is today's schedule." Liao Chengren carefully handed over the prepared itinerary.
Lu Mingzhou took the itinerary with a serious expression, his eyes fixed on one part of it. Assistant Liao was so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe.
"What's going on?" Lu Mingzhou asked, pointing to a line on the itinerary.
——"The Battle of the King's Army" was blocked.
Assistant Liao's palms were sweating slightly as he gripped the pen. He looked troubled and held his breath before he spoke carefully, "Boss Lu, 'The Battle of the King's Division' should be moving forward as planned, but there's been a problem."
"Get to the point." Lu Mingzhou's tone left no room for refusal.
"The UI designer originally chosen for "The Battle of the King's Army" was a blogger named "Zhou Zhou Ya" with millions of followers. We had searched all over the Internet before, but after we contacted her, she directly rejected us." Assistant Liao said helplessly.
"She refused. She thought the money we gave was too little?" Lu Mingzhou looked surprised.
"No, there's no reason, I just rejected it directly." Ming'an Group can be considered a large company, and many people are scrambling to get into it, but this Zhou Zhouya really rejected it outright, and no matter what they said, he remained indifferent.
"Is there no alternative?" Lu Mingzhou asked.
Assistant Liao said, "Yes, there is. After unanimous discussion within the project team, we still feel that Zhou Zhouya's style is more suitable, so we want to see if we can convince him."
Lu Mingzhou was silent for a few seconds. Ming'an Group had already spent three months on the early stage of the project "Battle of the King's Army". Everyone was very optimistic about this project. If it was done well, it would bring unexpected profits to the company.
Even if it can't be perfect, they want the project to be the best it can be.
"Do you have this person's contact information?" Lu Mingzhou asked, looking at the itinerary in his hand.
"There's an email address on his homepage, but we all sent him private messages directly through the APP background." Assistant Liao took out his mobile phone, tapped a few times on the phone, and handed it to Lu Mingzhou.
Lu Mingzhou took the phone and saw Zhou Zhouya’s homepage. During the previous meeting, he had only seen this person’s works from the same series and was not familiar with his other works.
Lu Mingzhou paddled up and down a few times and looked at this person's other works. There were some fresh and clean ones, some cute ones, some bold ones, some bloody ones, and there was also the domineering leak detection ones that their project team liked. The styles were very varied.
No wonder the project team members are so persistent.
In the office of Yuanguang Company, Ye Anyu held her chin and looked at the computer screen boredly. She had completed all her recent tasks and now only needed to wait for the client to inspect it. If the client thought it was okay, she could submit it directly. If the client thought it was not okay, she would need to revise it again.
I can take advantage of this time to improve my work. Thinking of this, Ye Anyu clicked to open a set of paintings.
This series of paintings by Ye Anyu is based on historical prototypes. The paintings restore the original appearances of some famous emperors in history while showing their lovely side.
In fact, this set of paintings was completed by Ye Anyu a year ago. The reason why she took it out to revise it again was because she received an invitation from a company some time ago.
The company invited her to join the project "The Battle of the King's Army", but Ye Anyu refused without hesitation because the company was called Ming'an Technology Group, which was Lu Mingzhou's company.
The compensation offered by Ming'an Group was very generous, and Ye Anyu was very tempted. However, for two people who were about to divorce, reducing their interactions and becoming strangers was the best option, which was good for both her and Lu Mingzhou.
Ye Anyu opened the dialog box. This Ming'an Group account had invited her several times, but she had rejected them flatly. In the past few days, they no longer tried to persuade her. They must have given up.
Ye Anyu looked at the computer screen, not understanding why he had to revise a drawing from a year ago.
Ming'an Group, Chairman's Office.
Lu Mingzhou stared at the phone screen, his eyes fixed on the set of illustrations that had initially attracted their project team, and asked, "How do I register for this app?"
Assistant Liao thought he had misheard, so he asked, "Mr. Lu, what did you say?"
Lu Mingzhou raised his eyes and glanced at Liao Chengren with a sharp gaze. Assistant Liao was frightened and his left eyelid twitched involuntarily a few times.
"I want to register an account." Lu Mingzhou looked at Liao Chengren as if he was mentally retarded.
It turned out that it wasn't his illusion. Liao Chengren hurriedly took his phone, returned to the phone's home page, and said, "Mr. Lu, your next app is called Ice Cream. Just register with your phone number or email address."
Assistant Liao left the office, feeling confused. He scratched his head and wondered, "Mr. Lu, do you mean to register an account yourself and invite people in person?"
When the people in the office saw Assistant Liao coming out, they all gathered around him.
"How is it? Did Mr. Lu say what to do?"
Liao Chengren shook his head.
"What if you didn't say?"
"What should we do then?"
"Yeah, isn't the project going to be done anymore?"
"but--"
"But what? Stop talking and breathing here!"
"But Mr. Lu registered an ice cream account."
"What do you mean? Mr. Lu is going to invite him personally?"
“!!!”
"Is this the legendary BOSS Direct Hire?"
…
In the office, Lu Mingzhou downloaded the APP, entered his mobile phone number, sent the verification code, entered the verification code, and logged in successfully, all in one go.
The nickname was randomly generated, called "Ice Cream Number". Lu Mingzhou thought for a few seconds about whether to authenticate it, and finally decided not to do real-name authentication because he didn't like being disturbed.
Lu Mingzhou typed in "Zhou Zhou ya" in the search box, clicked "search", and countless users popped up in the list.
Lu Mingzhou didn't need to scroll down to search, because the first one on the list was the avatar he had just seen. Lu Mingzhou pursed his lips and clicked to reach Zhou Zhouya's homepage and the private message list.
【Hello, I'm Lu Mingzhou.】
There was no reply, so Lu Mingzhou continued typing: [Do you have time? I'd like to chat with you in person.]
Send failed.
——You are not friends yet. You can only send one message before the other party replies.
After two minutes, there was still no reply. Lu Mingzhou put down the phone and focused on his work.
After a meeting, Ye Anyu took the opportunity to check her phone during the break. Someone on Ice Cream sent her a private message. As a millionaire blogger, Ye Anyu was not surprised and usually did not reply.
But today, Ye Anyu's eyes were fixed on a three-no account, [Hello, I'm Lu Mingzhou.]
Ye Anyu couldn't help laughing out loud, thought about it, then typed a line of words and sent it out.
【Hello, I am Lu Mingzhou’s wife.】
