Chapter 97: She has something to say
As they listened to the ring tone, everyone held their breath in tacit agreement. They were already nervous before they even saw Lu Qingye.
Meng Chuyuan turned his chair naturally, sat sideways, raised his head slightly, and his eyes fell on the projection screen.
After seeing that everyone was in the mood, Secretary Zheng was responsible for the video call with Lu Qingye.
Soon, Lu Qingye appeared on the projection screen.
Lu Qingye was wearing a white sweater. His tight jawline hid his sexy Adam's apple. The neckline was slightly larger, revealing his collarbone.
I haven't seen him for nearly a month, and he seems to have lost weight.
In Meng Chuyuan's impression, Lu Qingye had the body of a tough guy, but now it seems that he can't even hold up a sweater.
It was almost dawn over there. In order to attend the meeting, he changed his clothes temporarily and moved from the bedroom to the study with his computer.
Lu Qingye adjusted the angle and then showed his head. He glanced at the screen and saw Meng Chuyuan at a glance.
Meng Chuyuan sat closest to the projection screen. The light in the afternoon was highly saturated, and through the screen, Lu Qingye could vaguely feel the light from the window.
She sat there, looking so white and glowing.
Lu Qingye glanced at everyone present, but didn't see his mother.
He didn't say anything, and the people below didn't dare to speak either. They just looked up silently, their eyes falling on Meng Chuyuan, secretly observing the situation of the two.
Lu Qingye has always been a businesslike person. He didn't lay too much groundwork before getting straight to the point: "I called everyone to this meeting today mainly to introduce my wife, Meng Chuyuan."
The woman who happened to be sitting next to Meng Chuyuan gently called her Sister Meng.
Some of you may have watched the live broadcast and subconsciously followed the audience in shouting, but everyone present is older than her, so it is really inappropriate to call her Sister Meng.
Meng Chuyuan turned sideways to look at the others and smiled: "Just call me Xiao Meng."
Everyone introduced themselves one by one so that Meng Chuyuan could have an impression of them.
After the introduction process was completed, Lu Qingye randomly selected several departments to report on their work progress and explained some things. Meng Chuyuan listened very carefully, and Secretary Zheng was beside her, helping her explain professional terms from time to time.
The meeting lasted for nearly an hour. Only after everyone had no questions did Lu Qingye adjourn the meeting.
Meng Chuyuan closed the folder in her hand and was about to get up and leave with everyone when Lu Qingye suddenly called her: "Ayuan, please stay first. I have something to tell you."
When the others heard this, they all looked at Meng Chuyuan curiously.
However, they did not dare to show it too obviously. After packing up their things, they left the meeting room with their computers.
Seeing this, Secretary Zheng tactfully left the meeting room and closed the door behind him.
Meng Chuyuan turned to look at the projection screen at the side and asked calmly, "What's the matter?"
Lu Qingye looked at Meng Chuyuan, who was the only one left in the meeting room, and then he slowly said, "My mother is not with you?"
He had noticed it before the meeting, but because there were so many people present, Lu Qingye didn't ask.
He didn't see his mother during the entire meeting, which made Lu Qingye quite disappointed.
"She came with me this morning, and after lunch she said she wanted to leave." Meng Chuyuan shrugged and said helplessly, "So I let her go back."
You can't push her too hard on this kind of thing, or it might backfire.
Meng Chuyuan felt that she should give Lu's mother some time to accept and adapt.
Lu Qingye's face showed a hint of helplessness.
After a while, Lu Qingye said apologetically: "I'm sorry to trouble you again."
"It's just a small matter, how can it be called trouble?"
She is happy to try things she has never done before. For example, today she not only learned how to read financial statements, but also participated in the meeting, learned about the situation of each department, and truly experienced the atmosphere of the workplace.
This was undoubtedly a learning experience for her.
At the same time, the employees outside were secretly observing Lu Qingye and Meng Chuyuan through the glass wall.
"I've never seen President Lu so gentle." A female employee held a cup in her hand, her lower back resting on the desk, and looked towards the conference room in front of her with an open mind.
The other one was sitting in front of the computer, his eyes fixed on Meng Chuyuan. He whispered to his colleague, "Boss Lu just called him Madam, Ah Yuan. Oh my God, when has Boss Lu ever called anyone that?"
Lu Qingye usually doesn't take the initiative to call the people below him. Whenever he speaks, he always calls them by their full names. Usually, this is not a good thing.
The name Ayuan doesn't sound cloying, but it doesn't give people a sense of strangeness either.
Lu Qingye's voice is inherently magnetic and charming, with a hint of hoarseness in its low voice. Even if he communicates with others in a cold and aloof manner, he will still arouse others' favor towards him.
"I think Mr. Lu and Sister Meng have a good relationship. I don't know why there are so many outrageous rumors online, saying that she is an abandoned wife of a wealthy family."
"After all, I'm considered a veteran employee of the company, right? I had no idea that Mr. Lu was in a relationship. If I hadn't seen him wearing a wedding ring to work a month ago, I wouldn't have known he was married."
"Don't mention it's you. I didn't sense it either. Maybe our President Lu is more low-key."
Everyone was slacking off during work hours, secretly watching what was happening in the conference room, curious about what they were talking about.
Meng Chuyuan stayed alone in the conference room for about ten minutes. She chatted with Lu Qingye about daily matters and also shared with him what she had learned today.
"It should be quite late there, right?" Meng Chuyuan guessed the time there through the light of the video, and it felt like it was getting late.
Lu Qingye hummed lightly and said nothing more.
After all, he had already taken a shower and was ready to go to bed, but he decided to hold this meeting on the spur of the moment because he was worried.
There were some things he wanted to explain to his mother in person, but she was not there.
Meng Chuyuan had said everything she needed to say, and there was nothing else to explain to him. She stood up from her chair, walked to the front of the podium, and held the computer facing her in her hands.
She shifted her gaze to the computer screen, looking at Lu Qingye in the video and said, "You should get some rest early. I'll see if there's anything else I can help you with."
When a group of onlookers outside saw Meng Chuyuan holding the computer used for the meeting in his hands, their pupils were filled with excitement.
"Look, look! Sister Meng has our President Lu in her arms."
"What?" The colleague who was concentrating on his work immediately looked towards the conference room when he heard these words.
A married person at the scene said: "Have you been single for too long? This kind of thing makes you excited."
Because the projection screen on the wall was too reflective and they were separated by a layer of transparent glass, they could hardly see Lu Qingye.
