??Chapter 427: What misunderstandings are there about this sentence?
Jiang Yi really didn't expect the answer Lu Qingye gave.
How could someone who strives to do his job to the utmost suddenly cancel his original arrangements just to get home on time?
Jiang Yi seemed unwilling to believe his superficial answer for a moment, so he sighed silently and asked, "Did something happen at home?"
Lu Qingye raised his eyes and said nonchalantly, "No."
"No?" Jiang Yi's expression was obviously more surprised than before, his brows furrowed. He asked curiously, "Then why are you in such a hurry to go home? You even have to make time for a meal?"
Jiang Yi tried to find a reasonable reason from Lu Qingye, but all his guesses were overturned, which made him even more curious about the reason.
Lu Qingye raised his eyebrows, a hint of joy in his eyes, and casually summarized Meng Chuyuan's words in the morning: "Your sister-in-law asked me to work less overtime and go home early."
"Did you misunderstand what she said?" Jiang Yi's brows were filled with helplessness, and he explained to him ruthlessly: "She said that she wanted you to work less overtime, not that she wanted you to stop working overtime."
Lu Qingye raised his eyes to look at him, his slightly innocent eyes were filled with determination, "I know. Besides me, you can also have dinner with the client."
It was precisely because he knew this that he strictly told Meng Chuyuan the word "try your best" this morning. He postponed non-urgent work and occasions where he did not need to appear whenever possible.
Regarding tonight's dinner, Lu Qingye had already made his judgment. He didn't have to be there in person. Someone else could go and represent the company just as well.
When Jiang Yi heard this, he regretted that he had agreed too quickly and fell into Lu Qingye's trap. He smiled helplessly.
"I treat you as a brother, and you treat me as a tool! If we didn't have some friendship, this wouldn't be possible." Jiang Yi stood up and said before leaving Lu Qingye's office, "Just this once. If I help you next time, I'll take your last name."
Thinking about how Lu Qingye had gotten up early this morning to work overtime and helped set up the annual meeting venue in the afternoon, Jiang Yi reluctantly accepted his "strike" in the evening because he had been busy all day.
Lu Qingye glanced at him, ignoring his harsh words, and replied seriously: "You don't have to take my last name. I don't lack sons."
“…” Jiang Yi’s silence at this moment was deafening.
He was silent for a moment, a hint of disgust appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said to Lu Qingye in a cold voice: "I don't lack a son... You say it as if you have a son."
Lu Qingye: "..."
——
In the evening, Lu Qingye got home from get off work and just happened to catch up with dinner time.
Lin Youjuan: "Who's back?"
At this moment, Meng Chuyuan and the others were eating in the restaurant. When they heard the noise coming from the living room, everyone subconsciously looked outside.
After hearing this, Lu Qingye quickly responded: "It's me, Lu Qingye."
Meng Chuyuan looked at the clock, which was not yet seven o'clock, and then looked at Lu Qingye who had just entered the room, and asked curiously, "Why did you come back so early today?"
Lu Qingye walked in, looked at Meng Chuyuan with a gentle gaze, and said softly: "No overtime tonight."
Meng Chuyuan let out a light "oh". She didn't expect that he would come back so early tonight.
"No overtime, that's good." Lin Youjuan was very happy to hear that. She asked the housekeeper to get another set of fresh bowls and chopsticks, then said to Lu Qingye, "Hurry up and sit down to eat."
Lu Qingye nodded in agreement, and then sat down next to Meng Chuyuan.
