Chapter 426 Humble Chu Qi
Lu Shiman immediately told Lu Jianheng the location and even which table he was at, as accurately as if he had reported the address.
"Oh." Lu Jianheng responded, his tone sounding a little uninterested: "Okay, got it, hanging up."
He said he understood and hung up.
The moment he hung up the phone, he moved extremely quickly, shifting gears and stepping on the accelerator.
Xie Yi, who was standing next to him, keenly noticed the change in Lu Jianheng's aura and shifted his attention away from his phone.
She tilted her head to look at Lu Jianheng, and seeing his irritable look, she raised her eyebrows slightly: "What's wrong? Don't you want to watch Second Brother train?"
"Oh." Lu Jianheng sneered: "No, I'm not going. The idiot at home is sick. I have to go and see him to avoid embarrassing myself."
Xie Yi's gaze lingered on his face for a few seconds, and he didn't ask any more questions: "Let's go, I like to see fools."
"I think you're just a fool."
Inside the cafe.
The atmosphere is a bit weird.
Lu Shiman and Qin Jiaojiao sat in the booth by the window, their heads almost touching.
Although their faces were blocked by the cups, their eyes were like searchlights fixed on Shen Mingzhu and the mysterious handsome guy who had just taken a seat in front of them.
The two of them chose a seat a little further inside, and the atmosphere was just right.
Shen Mingzhu was still smiling and talking to the man opposite her. She looked relaxed and happy, and the lines of her face looked particularly soft under the warm light.
The man listened with a gentle smile, nodded from time to time, and gentlemanly helped Shen Mingzhu spread the napkin.
Everything is too harmonious.
Qin Jiaojiao covered her mouth, leaned close to Lu Shiman's ear, and excitedly whispered, "Look, look, he even put a napkin on her. How thoughtful!"
"It's over, it's over. Third brother's wall has been dug up and the foundation is gone! Ugh..."
Lu Shiman quickly reached out and covered her big mouth: "Be quiet, don't alert the snake."
She also lowered her voice: "We need to collect evidence, take pictures, take pictures."
Qin Jiaojiao understood and immediately took out her cell phone, pretending to take a selfie or a picture of the cafe environment, but in fact the camera was accurately tracking the table diagonally in front of her.
......
The Rolls-Royce was driving smoothly and was about to enter the last highway exit leading to the nearby city.
In the back row, Ji Linshen rubbed his bracelet habitually.
Suddenly I really wanted to know where my wife was and what she was doing at the moment.
When he opened the app, the number that popped up on the screen made him stunned.
Heart rate: 118 bpm
The pupils suddenly contracted.
Can drinking coffee raise your heart rate to nearly 120?
This is higher than when she works out.
His eyes continued to scan.
Positioning: Weiss Cafe (attached to the Trivis Hotel.)
hotel?
An attached cafe?
The hidden uneasiness deep in Ji Linshen's heart grew wildly like a vine.
With his thin lips tightly pursed, he pressed the record button without hesitation and started recording with his slender fingers.
Into the receiver, human voices and background sounds poured in like a tide.
At first, there was suppressed breathing and the subtle sound of cups and plates colliding.
Then, Qin Jiaojiao's low voice came: "...Is it an affair?"
Immediately afterwards, the voice that made his heart palpitate and was familiar rang out: "Not necessarily, it could also be called cheating."
"Oh, whether it's cheating or having an affair, it's done behind people's backs anyway."
Ji Linshen's hand holding the phone suddenly tightened, and his forehead throbbed.
The bracelet should be upgraded to include a 360-degree camera with no blind spots, high-definition night vision, waterproof and anti-shake function.
He wanted to know whose reflection was in those lively eyes at the moment!
Next to him, Huo Beiyan, who had his eyes closed to rest, suddenly opened them. He heard the conversation on the phone.
"Ji Linshen!" He was completely furious and roared at the instigator beside him: "Can you control your wife?"
"It's fine if you're just fooling around with my wife every day, but what does this mean now?"
"You're having an affair and cheating on your wife, and your wife's heart rate is 120? Are they going to find a male model?"
"Look at your wonderful wife!"
Ji Linshen didn't even raise his eyelids. On his overly handsome face, there was only a coldness and a sinister feeling of having his territory's security challenged.
Ignoring Huo Beiyan's chatter, he dialed Lu Shiman's number.
He wanted to hear her voice now, immediately, and immediately.
“Beep…beep…beep…”
The sound of waiting to be connected is like being tortured to death.
A few seconds later, the cold, mechanical female voice completely extinguished that pitiful hope.
"The user you dialed is temporarily unavailable..."
Dial again.
"Powered off."
Ji Linshen's face was visibly covered with a layer of frost.
It is a kind of dead silence before a storm is brewing.
When I clicked on the recording interface, I could only hear the two people's breathing.
Seeing that no one answered Ji Linshen's call, Huo Beiyan immediately called Qin Jiaojiao.
Then, I encountered the same top-level treatment of being hung up instantly and shut down.
The same disbelief was written on both of their faces.
It’s inconvenient to answer the phone while drinking coffee?
Combined with what the two said about having an affair and cheating.
The car drove off the highway and headed towards the project company.
"Stop the car." Ji Linshen's voice was cold.
"Turn around and go back immediately." Huo Beiyan's tone was full of unquestionable command.
The two voices rang out almost simultaneously.
In the front row, Chu Qi took in the instantaneous explosion of the two young masters through the rearview mirror.
The palms of his hands on his knees were covered in cold sweat.
A humble and practiced wail erupted instantly, carrying the desperate comfort of a social animal to the controller of capital: "Two young masters~~~~"
Chu Qi's voice trembled with misery and helplessness: "Please, I really beg you, Master."
"The 1.5 billion yuan acquisition contract in Lin City is still waiting to be signed, and the project progress is still waiting for your inspection!"
"Both Mr. Wang and Chairman Li from last time have landed."
"Our international friends are waiting in the conference room even though they haven't adjusted to their jet lag yet."
"We're all...we're already quite old, accomplished and influential people. Can we..." Chu Qi swallowed, "...can we please stop imitating those ridiculous plots from those melodramatic skits?"
He spoke as fast as a clockwork, trying to use reality and numbers to awaken the two love-brained young masters' rationality.
"Things like 'The collaboration is on hold while I go pick up my younger sister,' 'The operation is on hold because my wife has something to do,'...that's all industrial saccharine to fool the audience!"
"It's fake! It's all a script. We have to respect the spirit of contract in the real world, right? We can't afford the consequences of letting dozens of executives go, disappearing, and causing stock market volatility and project failures..."
"Young Masters, wake up, isn't it nice to work hard?"
"I, your humble assistant, kowtow to you two. Please behave like a human being!"
Huo Beiyan was so shocked that his pupils widened as if he was meeting this trusted assistant who had followed Ji Linshen for seven or eight years for the first time.
He stared at Chu Qi: "Chu Qi?"
"You...what kind of weird shit do you watch every day in private?" This speaking style is simply like being possessed by another person.
