Chapter 49 Date
interesting.
Yu Zechuan suddenly discovered that the relationship between Jiang Boyun and Lu Yan did not seem simple. He saw a hint of desire and greed in the former's eyes, while the latter's eyes always had a faint smile on them, making it hard to see clearly.
Yu Zechuan flicked the ash with his fingers. The cool mint smell refreshed his mind and calmed the gloom in his heart. He lowered his eyes expressionlessly and hid in the shadows, intending to listen to what the two people were talking about.
It's best not to say anything that would upset him.
Especially Lu Yan.
After all, it was rare for Yu Zechuan to meet someone who suited his taste so well, and he didn't want to use the same method he used to deal with Jiang Boyun to deal with the other person.
The two people downstairs were still talking, but no matter what Jiang Boyun wanted to ask, Lu Yan just shook his head and said, "You went to the bathroom that day. I went there later, too, but I didn't notice anything unusual happening to Mr. Yu. Mr. Jiang, is there something wrong?"
Jiang Boyun frowned. He always valued face, so he would not say that Yu Zechuan had ignored him recently. He just said vaguely, "Nothing. I saw that President Yu had not come to the company recently. I was worried that he might have encountered something unhappy on the day of the banquet."
Lu Yan smiled and said, "So that's how it is. Mr. Yu might just be busy, so he didn't come to work."
Jiang Boyun thought about his job being in jeopardy and felt upset for some reason: "You don't understand. He has always been moody. Who knows when he will be unhappy?"
Lu Yan thought that Yu Zechuan was moody, but whether he was angry or happy, there was a reason. Others had the right to say it, but Jiang Boyun did not. He said in a light voice: "He was unhappy because others provoked him. If others did not provoke him, everything would be fine."
Jiang Boyun was in a panic simply because he had done something shameful. If he had not said those words at the corner of the corridor, why would he have to rush to seek help like he is now?
When Yu Zechuan heard Lu Yan's biased words, he paused in his smoking and almost got his fingertips burned by the sparks.
Jiang Boyun looked up at Lu Yan in surprise. He felt that the tone of his words was too cold and not in line with his usual style. "What do you mean?"
Lu Yan showed a harmless smile and said slowly, "Boss Jiang, what I meant is that Boss Yu may have encountered other unpleasant things outside. You don't have to worry too much. I heard from Sister Cathy that he has come to work today."
Jiang Boyun was stunned: "Mr. Yu is here to work?"
Lu Yan: "Maybe, I'm not sure."
Jiang Boyun has started to get less information, which means Yu Zechuan is wary of him and that he has gradually begun to be excluded from the company. But this is only the first step, and he will have to suffer in the future.
Lu Yan finally smiled and said, "General Jiang, if you have nothing else to do, I will leave first."
Jiang Boyun nodded uneasily: "You go back first."
Because of the delay, it was almost six o'clock when Lu Yan went downstairs. The sky was gradually darkening, revealing pink and purple blurred by the setting sun. The roadside was lined with lush trees, and there was indescribable romance and vitality.
A black car quietly stopped at the intersection of the company. The shiny body of the car reflected the shadows of the trees, and it was low-key and expensive. The car window was lowered, revealing Yu Zechuan's cold face. He glanced at Lu Yan standing at the bottom of the stairs and said, "Get in the car."
Lu Yan didn't expect Yu Zechuan to be so brazen. After all, there were people coming and going around, and it was easy for colleagues to see him. He leaned slightly closer to the car window, and lowered his voice, like a cello: "Mr. Yu, you drove directly to pick me up, aren't you afraid of being seen and gossiped by others?"
Yu Zechuan sneered: "Why, are you afraid?"
He has never known what restraint is in his life. His likes and dislikes are so frank and direct, as hot and scorching as fire.
Lu Yan also smiled: "Don't be afraid."
Yu Zechuan showed a hint of satisfaction in his eyes: "Then get in the car."
The words he heard at the staircase today made Yu Zechuan happy. After all, he had already misjudged Jiang Boyun. If Lu Yan was also wrong, he would really suspect that there was something wrong with his eyes.
Lu Yan opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat, then fastened his seat belt. He didn't know what he remembered, so he tilted his head and glanced at Yu Zechuan, smiling sweetly, "Mr. Yu, can I go take the driver's license test in two days?"
Yu Zechuan started the car and asked casually, "Why?"
Lu Yan: "Then I can help you drive next time you go out."
Yu Zechuan paused when he heard this, not realizing it was for this reason. Then he returned to normal: "It's up to you. When you finish the test, I'll take you to buy a car and you can choose the model yourself."
He couldn't help but frown as he finished speaking, probably feeling that he was too easily deceived. He gave away a car not long after they met, and he was not so generous to Jiang Boyun at the beginning.
Lu Yan was like a male vixen. He seemed to notice that Yu Zechuan was being picky. He frowned and leaned over slightly and said, "Mr. Yu, no need. I can buy it myself."
Yu Zechuan immediately forgot his previous confusion and frowned, "Take it if you can earn as much as you want."
Lu Yan said, "Mr. Yu."
Yu Zechuan asked impatiently: "What?"
Lu Yan: "You are so nice~"
“Squeak—!”
Yu Zechuan stepped on the brake subconsciously, and the whole person leaned forward due to inertia. If the nearby road was not empty, he would have rear-ended the car. He suddenly glared at Lu Yan, but saw that he was sitting in his seat as if nothing had happened, as if he had not said that sentence just now.
Yu Zechuan just felt like there was a breath stuck in his throat, and he felt uncomfortable.
But the culprit shamelessly asked, "Mr. Yu, why don't you drive?"
Yu Zechuan could only say stiffly, "Nothing."
He started the car again, but he still couldn't calm down for a long time because of his previous loss of composure.
Probably because no one had ever said such things to him before.
The place that Yu Zechuan chose to eat was not a restaurant that was packed with guests, but a quiet little courtyard, which was generally in the style of a Suzhou garden. It was said that the owner of this place was a wealthy man who didn't care much about profit or loss, and did business only for his own pleasure. To eat here, you had to make a reservation one month in advance.
Yu Zechuan was obviously a regular customer. The waiter at the door came up to greet him as soon as he saw him: "Mr. Yu, the private room is ready. Please follow me."
There are small bridges, flowing water, rocks and ponds in the yard. The private room is located on the second floor, right next to the railing, so you can see the whole picture by looking down.
It was Lu Yan's first time to come to such a place. He took a sip of tea, and the mist filled the air, and the fragrance filled his nose: "Mr. Yu, the scenery here is really beautiful."
Yu Zechuan crossed his legs and relaxed: "It's owned by a friend. If you like it, I'll bring you here next time."
Yu Zechuan likes this place because of its quiet environment. He feels particularly relaxed every time he stays in the private room. However, he has only been here with Old Master Yu. Jiang Boyun has no right to step in. Lu Yan is a special case.
When I think about it this way, the treatment I received from the other party seems a bit too special.
Yu Zechuan supported his head with one hand and looked up at Lu Yan lazily. He tapped the table with his fingertips, and those weird thoughts started to play tricks on him again. He wanted the other party to know some of them, but he didn't want to let the other party know. After all, he was not a person who liked to explain.
Lu Yan sat across the table, his eyes flashing in the light. He was not suitable for smiling, because smiling would make people lose their composure: "Mr. Yu, you are so good to me."
He accepted his kindness.
Yu Zechuan couldn't help but laugh: "Is this what I call being nice to you?"
Compared to Jiang Boyun's insatiable desires, Lu Yan seemed to be too easily satisfied.
Lu Yan nodded seriously: "Of course, I have never been to such a place before."
Yu Zechuan stopped talking. He thought that Lu Yan might be like Jiang Boyun, who also came from a poor mountain valley. It was his first time in such a place, so he was inevitably happy. He didn't want to put pressure on the other party, so he took the menu and handed it to Lu Yan: "It's just a place to eat, with a better view. Take a look at the menu and order whatever you want."
Lu Yan took it without refusing. The pictures on the menu were exquisite and beautiful, and there were no prices. He didn't know if the boss was being mysterious and picked a few dishes according to Yu Zechuan's taste.
The waiter stood by, writing down the names of the dishes and the dietary taboos one by one, and said with a smile: "You ordered the same old dishes. Do you have any notes?"
I don’t know if it was a coincidence or something, but the dishes Lu Yan ordered were highly similar to what Yu Zechuan usually ordered, causing Yu Zechuan to look at him strangely and say, “It’s nothing, you can just cook it.”
Waiter: “Okay.”
After the waiter left, Yu Zechuan asked casually, "Have you been here before?"
Lu Yan was originally looking at the scenery, but when he heard this he turned around and said, "No, this is my first time here."
Yu Zechuan raised his eyebrows: "Then why is your ordering habit the same as mine?"
Lu Yan knew that Yu Zechuan was going to ask this, but he was careless just now. He habitually ordered dishes according to Yu Zechuan's preferences. He didn't expect that he got them all right by coincidence: "Really?"
He pretended to be surprised: "Maybe you and I have similar tastes in food. I saw that those dishes were signature dishes, so I ordered them."
This excuse could barely make it up. After all, who could believe such a ridiculous thing about past and present lives? Yu Zechuan did not ask any further questions.
To some extent, the expensiveness is justified. When the dishes were served, the freshness of the ingredients could be smelled without opening the lids. The waiter even brought a bottle of pomegranate wine: "Mr. Yu, this is a new fruit wine that our store launched last month. The boss specifically asked us to reserve a portion for regular customers."
Yu Zechuan rarely drinks and wanted to refuse, but when he saw Lu Yan glance at the bottle for a few more times, he changed his tone and said, "Then try it."
The waiter filled two small glasses for them. The rosé wine rippled in the translucent frosted ice-patterned glasses, as delicate as a work of art.
Lu Yan took a sip and said, "This wine has a high alcohol content."
His clear voice was a little hoarse from the alcohol, making it sexy and intoxicating.
Yu Zechuan took a sip without changing his expression. He felt that the alcohol content was normal. He raised his eyebrows lightly and said, "You have never drunk alcohol before, have you?"
Anyone who has ever drunk alcohol cannot say that the alcohol content is high.
Although Lu Yan said that the alcohol content of the wine was high, his face did not blush and his eyes were clear enough. He held the ice-patterned cup with his slender fingertips and played with it around: "Not really, I drank it once before."
Yu Zechuan thought to himself that he had never drunk it: "When did you drink it?"
When I roll in the sheets with you.
Lu Yan was unclear: "It's been too long, but the impression is very deep."
It was a lifetime ago. It’s indeed been too long.
Yu Zechuan refilled the cup next to Lu Yan and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Drink it all. This time it will leave a deeper impression on you."
He was so overbearing that he had to cover up all traces of the other party's past, leaving only himself.
Lu Yan smiled and said, "Okay, I'll drink it."
Jiang Boyun was also obedient in front of Yu Zechuan and did whatever he was told to do. The same was true for Lu Yan, but he and Jiang Boyun were different. Perhaps the former was seeking fame and fortune, while the latter was seeking things that had nothing to do with fame and fortune, so his feelings seemed more genuine.
Before they knew it, they had finished the whole bottle of wine.
Lu Yan took some time to go to the bathroom, and when he came back, he was still walking leisurely, not drunk at all. This made Yu Zechuan, who was a little dizzy, think that all the wine Lu Yan drank went into his dog's stomach.
Yu Zechuan closed his eyes and pinched his nose: "I asked the driver to wait downstairs. I'll ask him to take you home later."
Lu Yan did not refuse, because there were no public transportation now: "Okay, let's go downstairs first."
He leaned over and helped Yu Zechuan up from the chair. His arms were steady and strong, and the thin clothes could not block the hot body temperature. Yu Zechuan smelled the refreshing breath of Lu Yan, and his ears were inexplicably hot. He was uneasy and stumbled when he walked. Then he was held firmly by the other party: "Be careful!"
When they got closer, Yu Zechuan discovered that Lu Yan seemed to have abdominal muscles.
“…”
It seems that they have no resistance to No. 1 like Lu Yan.
Yu Zechuan was helped down the stairs by Lu Yan. He never liked getting too close to strangers, but the hand on his waist was not offensive. He looked away awkwardly, not daring to look at Lu Yan at all, his ears were so red that they were about to bleed.
Damn it, Yu Zechuan felt that he was either obsessed with sex or possessed by a ghost.
This state continued until I went downstairs to settle the bill, when I finally came to my senses.
"Mr. Yu, your friend has already settled the bill."
Hearing the waiter's words, Yu Zechuan paused in opening his wallet and subconsciously looked at Lu Yan: "When did you pay the bill?"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered that Lu Yan seemed to have gone to the toilet during the journey, and his expression became subtle for a moment.
Lu Yan smiled and said, "I'm afraid that I'll waste time when I leave later, so I'll just end it now."
The meal was quite expensive, but Lu Yan didn't feel bad at all. After all, he had died several times and had come to terms with it. Money is a bastard, spend it and earn it again.
Yu Zechuan had no choice but to put away his wallet. In front of the waiter, he would not say anything even if he wanted to. It was not until he and Lu Yan left the villa and got in the car that he frowned and said, "You don't have to do this next time. I never let others pay for my meals."
Lu Yan is currently just an intern who has just been hired as a full-time employee. Although the company's salary is good, he cannot afford to spend so much.
Lu Yan responded. The light in the car was dim, but his smile was particularly bright: "Today is the first time I have dinner with you. It is worth remembering, so I paid the bill."
He was not greedy for anything. This attitude made Yu Zechuan a little stunned: "You..."
He opened his mouth, wanting to say that Lu Yan not only didn't make any money by following him, but he even lost a lot of money. What was he trying to gain?
But out of consideration for the driver, I didn't ask that question.
The roads were especially deserted late at night. The driver drove the car to the bottom of Lu Yan's shared apartment and parked it. The whole journey took less than half an hour. It was the first time that Yu Zechuan felt that time passed so quickly.
Yu Zechuan lowered the car window and looked around. Finding the conditions to be average, he wondered if he should find a new place for Lu Yan to live.
"Boss Yu, I'm going home first."
Lu Yan didn't know what he was thinking. He said hello and goodbye, then opened the car door and got out to go home, but he didn't expect Yu Zechuan to follow him out.
Yu Zechuan closed the car door with his backhand, making a slight sound. He leaned against the car behind him, and his reclining posture made his legs look particularly slender. The slightly cold wind blew the corners of his suit up and fluttered, reminding people of a butterfly that shouldn't exist in the cold winter, elegant and cold, instead of the bloody broken-winged appearance of the previous life.
Lu Yan was puzzled: "What's wrong?"
Yu Zechuan looked at him, and after a moment of silence, he pulled out his phone from his pocket and handed it to him. The interface that lit up was a WeChat QR code, which was obviously prepared long ago. He pursed his lips and said unnaturally, "Add a friend."
It has always been others who have added to Yu Zechuan's share, but he has never added to others'. Lu Yan obviously knows what's going on, but he just doesn't understand this aspect. After waiting all the way but nothing happened, Yu Zechuan couldn't help feeling a little frustrated.
Lu Yan came to his senses and remembered that he seemed to have forgotten to add Yu Zechuan as a friend. He took out his phone to scan the code for verification, and directly put a note on the top of the message in front of the other party: "Added."
Yu Zechuan had sharp eyes and noticed that Lu Yan's note for him was a small love heart and a sun, and he pinned it to the top. His heart skipped a beat: "You..."
Damn, Yu Zechuan is so big and he has never been in love, how could he have seen such a seductive vixen.
"Why don't you give me a name?"
Lu Yan smiled and glanced at him: "No need to note the name, I know it's you."
Yu Zechuan's breath was choked: "..."
I'm really going to die.
He was already sober, but the other party's light words stirred his drunkenness. Yu Zechuan frowned secretly and was about to turn around and get in the car when he suddenly heard a soft call from behind: "Mr. Yu?"
Yu Zechuan turned around subconsciously, his narrow eyes flashing with a trace of confusion that was inconsistent with his personality: "What?"
The next second, a gentle and tender kiss fell on his lips without any warning. Yu Zechuan was so shocked that his pupils shrank and his mind went blank.
Lu Yan...how dare he? ! !
