Chapter 29 Chapter 29 What do you two look like hugging each other...
Cheng Yi felt very nervous all over.
He had only been away for a few minutes. How could Lu Yu be blinded by a few cups of milk tea and bring the wolf to the table?
Confused!
But he dared not say anything and could only watch the villain Babaodie gain power and successfully steal Lu Yu's quotation.
Within two minutes, Babao's father said he had a stomachache and wanted to go back to his room. Cheng Yi guessed that he must want to avoid being seen by many people and send the stolen price to Cheng Xiaoyong.
"There is a bathroom here, just use it." He didn't let Babao's father leave, trying to delay time.
"That's not good. You are all still drinking milk tea. Who can drink it after I'm spitting it out?" Tan Ji deliberately made it disgusting to blur the point.
Cheng Yi was speechless.
At this moment, Lu Yu, who was sitting behind the table, spoke up: "You can go back."
He approved.
"Okay, okay, thank you Mr. Lu for your understanding. I will go back and solve it." Tan Jiru was pardoned and slipped away.
Cheng Yi looked at the time. It was 15:45 and there were still 15 minutes until the bid deadline.
Now the key lies in his elder brother.
Maybe Cheng Xiaoyong has already given up, or maybe he is also squatting in the toilet, constipated and unable to defecate...
He prayed for a hundred possibilities that his elder brother would fail because he did not receive the information from Babao's father in time.
Until the phone vibrated in my pocket.
[Cheng Family Meeting Room - Boss Cheng]: Family members, I will treat you to a French meal at the Louvre this Sunday night.
[Cheng Family Meeting Room-Cheng Lao Er]: What? Any good news?
[Cheng Family Meeting Room - Boss Cheng]: Celebrating winning the bid. Although the result has not been announced yet, it is a sure win!
[Cheng Family Meeting Room - Queen Mother]: Congratulations!
[Cheng Family Meeting Room - Father]: Congratulations!
[Cheng Family Meeting Room - Cheng Lao Er]: Oh, it seems that Xiaoyi and you worked together to seize Lu Yu's project?
[Cheng Family Meeting Room - Boss Cheng]: What do you mean by Lu Yu's project? Whatever I want will be mine, and I will get it at any cost!
The whole family happily congratulated Cheng Xiaoyong in advance on winning the bid, but Cheng Yi was the only one who was upset.
Damn it, the thing he least wanted to see happened.
Cheng Xiaoyong, this troublemaker, finally fluttered around!
Even through the screen, you can feel his excitement at having his evil plan succeed.
Uncomfortable. It's really uncomfortable.
Cheng Yi wanted to burst into tears right now.
I cried because all my efforts were in vain, and all my efforts were wasted. This wounded heart cannot be healed by taking Chinese medicine anymore. I guess I have to drink pesticides to heal it.
Lu Yu noticed his abnormality and asked, "What's wrong? Is the milk tea not to your taste?"
And milk tea! Cheng Yi was very angry when he heard this: "Can you drink it? I can't."
"Is your throat blocked by gunpowder?" Lu Yu looked at him.
Cheng Yi: “…”
He was in no mood to joke. Seeing Lu Lingyi go into the bathroom to take a shower, he pulled up a chair and sat down to talk to his boss in detail.
"Tan Ji just secretly looked at your quotation document." He said with a heavy heart, "How could you let him look at such confidential information casually?"
Lu Yu tasted his questioning tone and said calmly: "You saw it too."
"Me? How can I be the same as him..." Cheng Yi rolled his eyes.
But no matter what, it's too late to say anything now.
Now that the dust has settled, we have done our part and can only leave the rest to fate.
"...Forget it." He shook his head. Let it be whatever you want.
Maybe this is what we call fate.
Just as they were imagining what Lu Yu would do to them when he found out that the project had been maliciously snatched away, they heard another voice.
"Come here," Lu Yu called him, "Come to my place."
Cheng Yi stood up and walked to his boss.
Lu Yu pushed his computer in front of him.
Cheng Yi leaned forward slightly and suddenly found that the price above was different from what he had seen before.
"Hey! You... adjusted the price?" He was shocked. "When?"
"When I was chatting with you, the overall price was reduced by 3%." Lu Yu said.
Oh my gosh! Cheng Yi's little heart felt like it was bungee jumping.
Hell one second, heaven the next. The huge stone pressing on my heart seemed to be lifted away at once, and every cell in my body was filled with joy again.
What a spy war script with twists and turns.
So Babao's father stole a fake quotation and happily took it to Cheng Xiaoyong to take credit for it.
Cheng Yi's eyes immediately changed when he looked at his boss, and his tone became more restrained.
"So the final price is known only to heaven and earth, you and I. Do you trust me so much?"
Lu Yu glanced at him and said nothing. Click the mouse to update the quotation. The fresh price will be uploaded in one second, overwriting the version from more than ten minutes ago.
Look at the time again, 15:59:00.
It just happened to be the last minute of the deadline.
Lu Yu closed the computer and said slowly: "Shouldn't I trust you?"
Cheng Yi was stunned. These words seemed to hit his heart gently, leaving him speechless for a long time.
A subtle atmosphere condensed in the air until the bathroom door suddenly opened a crack, and Lu Lingyi called out to them: "Do you have any extra bathrobes?"
The quiet atmosphere was broken. Lu Yu stood up to get his bathrobe. Cheng Yi took a deep breath and collected his thoughts.
At this moment, his cell phone vibrated again in his pocket. He took it out and saw that it was a message from his eldest brother.
[Cheng Xiaoyong]: We won! From today on, your undercover work can come to an end.
Cheng Yi pretended to know nothing and typed back:
[Cheng Yi]: What? Did you find out Lu Yu’s final price from any other channel?
[Cheng Xiaoyong]: Of course, I have other undercover agents, maybe you don’t know
hehe. Cheng Yi thought to himself, I know it too well.
[Cheng Xiaoyong]: My previous offer was 10 points higher than that of Mr. Lu. Fortunately, the undercover helped me steal the fruit at the critical moment.
[Cheng Xiaoyong]: I have contacted hundreds of media outlets and asked them to publish press releases everywhere on the day when the winning bid is announced. I want to blind Lu Yu's eyes and make him so angry that he gets a breast inflammation!
Oh my God, I have breast inflammation... I'm afraid you will be disappointed. Cheng Yi sighed, quit the chat, and placed an order for quick-acting heart-saving pills for his elder brother in advance.
*
This week's work was successfully completed.
Tomorrow is Saturday, and Lu Lingyi just happened to fly to City D. Cheng Yi wanted to hang out with him here before going back. I always feel like he seems to be worried about something.
"Mr. Lu, there are two flights back to City A tonight," Cheng Yi opened the flight software APP, "You go back first, I will take good care of Lu Lingyi for you."
Lu Yu glanced at the two people in front of him. Cheng Yi seemed to be certain that he would return tonight, so he took a screenshot of the flight information and sent it to his mobile phone.
Lu Lingyi did not show any sign of not wanting him to leave, and even gave Cheng Yi some reasonable suggestions:
"Let's book a later flight and let my brother treat us to dinner before we leave."
Lu Yu: “…”
Is he some kind of superfluous person?
"Who said I was leaving? What evil intentions do you have in mind by sending me away?"
Lu Lingyi: “…”
Cheng Yi: “…”
What a huge misunderstanding! He is thinking about his boss with all his heart.
Lu Yu is busy with work, so how could he possibly accompany them to play outside? Besides, the hotel still has no vacant rooms today, and there are two beds for three people, so how can they squeeze in?
But from what Lu Yu said, it seemed that he didn't get his good intentions at all. Instead, he thought that he and Lu Lingyi were forming a small group.
"Brother, if you want to stay, then stay," Lu Lingyi said again, "Although the generation gap may prevent us from playing together, we are short of money after all."
Cheng Yi heard something was wrong and quickly pulled himself out: "It's your wallet, not ours."
Although he was also in need, he would never dare to treat his boss as his wallet.
Lu Lingyi patted him generously and said, "It's all the same."
Cheng Yi decisively refused: "It's different, it's different."
I'm not your sister-in-law, so you don't dare to enjoy this treatment.
Lu Yu listened to their conversation and his face became darker and darker.
Is his value just a wallet?
The generation gap is something that makes people's hearts ache.
"That's enough." He said to the two of them, "I'm going back with you. Don't stay in the hotel tonight. Let's go camping."
"oh?"
"oh?"
Cheng Yi and Lu Lingyi were both stunned and opened their mouths in unison.
Lu Yu didn't say anything else, just gave them a look that was filled with a desire to win.
A little after five o'clock, the three of them went downstairs together.
Cheng Yi sincerely felt that Lu Yu and camping were not a good match, even though they both had the last name "Lu".
Camping is an activity that requires you to do a lot of things yourself. Setting up tents, grilling food, finding a campsite... He didn't think anyone in Erlu had such down-to-earth hands-on skills.
"We won't just sleep in the wilderness at night, will we?" Cheng Yi was seriously worried.
Although life is a wilderness, there is no need to be so completely wilderness. At least sleeping should not be wilderness.
He went downstairs feeling uneasy, but was dumbfounded as soon as he stepped out of the hotel.
Wow, the RV, tent, and service team are all there. Two tall and handsome guys in uniform bowed to the three of them in unison.
Cheng Yi was shocked. This was all outsourced! What a trendy and labor-saving “prefabricated camp”!
The handsome team leader walked to the front of the RV, opened the door, and respectfully made a "please" gesture.
"Leave professional matters to professionals. I wish you three have fun."
…
Cheng Yi was indeed happy that night.
Others work hard and have enough food and clothing.
The service team arranged everything in an orderly manner, including driving, moving supplies, setting up tents, and barbecuing. They also prepared a wide variety of items, including audio equipment and projectors.
Thinking about the only company team-building camping that Cheng Yi had participated in in his previous life, he was almost working like a donkey for the whole company.
His colleagues were all so full that they had diarrhea, but he was still standing in front of the barbecue grill working hard on an empty stomach. His colleagues were playing poker in groups of three or two, but he was still squatting on the ground setting up a tent for them.
The people from other companies nearby had red eyes when they saw this. Discuss with him whether it is possible to give them the use of his superior labor force, for a fee, to offset the cost of fruits, snacks, and yogurt.
Cheng Yi also earned a nickname because of this: the strongest bull and horse warrior on earth.
"Brother Xiaoyi, the oysters are here!" Lu Lingyi shouted, bringing Cheng Yi back to his senses.
There was an extra grilled oyster on the plate next to me, and it smelled delicious.
But the oysters were huge, and the waiter only brought two at a time.
Cheng Yi looked at his boss beside him and generously gave up his own. "Boss Lu, please eat first. I can camp empty-handed today thanks to my wallet... oh no, it's all thanks to Boss Lu's ability to make money."
Lu Yu glanced at him, and before he could speak, Lu Lingyi spoke for him: "My brother doesn't eat oysters."
"Ah? Why don't you eat it? It's very nutritious." Cheng Yi was surprised.
Lu Lingyi chuckled: "My brother doesn't eat oysters, leeks, or shellfish."
"Oh oh oh." Cheng Yi took the oysters back from Lu Yu's plate and understood.
The only things he doesn't eat are male tonics. I guess it's not that he doesn't want to eat them, but that he doesn't dare to eat them for fear of overdosing.
How could he forget that the male protagonists of the paper figures all looked like they were born with good kidneys and could have sex with their significant other for three hundred rounds in bed.
The barbecue took quite a long time, and by the time they were almost done, it was getting dark. Stars started to emerge from the dark grey sky, and the moonlight was shining above their heads.
The campsite is on the top of a mountain in a tourist resort, surrounded by mountains, lush vegetation, gentle evening breeze, and quiet and fresh air.
"It's been a long time since I looked up at the starry sky from such a close distance." Cheng Yi took out his cell phone and stood up. "I'll go take some photos."
Lu Yu and Lu Lingyi sat there without moving, obviously not interested in taking pictures of the starry sky.
The two of them sat quietly for a while, and Lu Yu suddenly asked, "You said on the phone that he was back and wanted to see you. Did you meet?"
"Um... no," Lu Lingyi lowered his head and absentmindedly fiddled with an hourglass ornament on the table, "I just flew back to find you because I was afraid he would come looking for me."
Lu Yu stroked his brother's back and said after a while: "Don't go see him. People who really care about you won't do anything to hurt you."
"But……"
"No buts."
Not far away, Cheng Yi was jogging back after taking pictures of the starry sky.
"It's so beautiful," he excitedly shared the starry sky photos he took. "It's said that everyone who looks up at the stars has a child living in their heart. You have nothing to do anyway, so how romantic it would be to let a child live in your heart."
"I don't think so." Lu Yu was too lazy to even look up at the sky.
Lu Lingyi forced a smile and said, "I can't move in. There's another person inside. It's terrible."
Cheng Yi was stunned and didn't understand what this sentence meant.
At this moment, the waiter came over and smiled politely: "What do you think of our special barbecue?"
"Absolutely." Cheng Yi praised sincerely, "Especially the grilled oysters, so delicious."
"As long as you are satisfied," the waiter smiled. "Our service for today ends here. The three of you can go to bed early tomorrow morning. We will pick you up and take you to the beach on time."
"good."
Before leaving, the waiter helped them check two large double tents, which were very secure and sturdy.
They also left their RV behind, so if you're not used to living in a tent you can sleep in the RV.
"How do we divide into groups tonight?" Cheng Yi pointed at the two large tents.
Lu Yu didn't want to be forced to listen to his sleep talking tonight: "You have a tent by yourself, Lu Lingyi and I."
Cheng Yi actually thought so too.
But Lu Lingyi objected: "I'll go with Cheng Yi. Don't be too happy to read novels on the screen before going to bed. Brother, you won't understand the joy of our two-dimensional world."
Lu Yu: “…”
That night, Cheng Yi and Lu Lingyi slept in a tent, and Lu Yu slept alone.
The two tents were right next to each other and the sound insulation was not very good. Lu Yu could clearly hear the two people in the second dimension happily exchanging their thoughts after reading the book.
"Haha, what kind of CEO would kiss his assistant for a whole day and night? His tongue must be thin."
"Haha, what kind of CEO is giving his assistant a bath every day? This is the love story of two sixty-year-old men..."
Lu Yu couldn't help but frown as he listened to these things.
He didn't understand what the fun was in reading this kind of novel, it was boastful, boring and vulgar.
After a while, the wind on the wall changed again. No more abstractions, just pure love.
"Woo woo woo, the confession of the century on the snowy plateau!"
"The ring is hidden in a cabin in the mountains. The unexpected romance is actually a long-planned surprise. So sweet~"
Lu Yu didn't understand even more.
Do I have to go to the plateau specifically to confess my love? Are they two yaks?
Wouldn’t the ring be stolen if it’s hidden in a mountain cabin? Where is the romance.
He had previously been reluctant to admit that there was a generation gap between him and the two young people in their early twenties, but now it seems that it would be better not to fill this generation gap.
At least it can be normal.
He plugged his earplugs in tightly, closed his eyes and prepared to sleep.
But more than an hour passed and I still didn't feel sleepy at all. It seemed like a lot of complicated things were in my mind, but when I thought about them carefully, I felt that there was nothing.
Lu Yu took a deep breath, opened his eyes, and took off his earplugs.
It was quiet next door at this moment, and occasionally one or two even snoring sounds could be heard.
Lu Yu stood up, walked out of the tent, stood for a while in the cool night, and looked up. Just as Cheng Yi said, the starry sky above his head was more magnificent and higher than what he saw in the city.
He looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but take out his mobile phone to take a picture of the starry sky.
After taking the photos, he returned along the same route and stopped outside the tent of Lu Lingyi and Cheng Yi.
After a moment's hesitation, he quietly opened the door and stepped in.
In the tent, the bedside lamp was on and the projector on the table was not turned off. Looking at the bed, Lu Lingyi and Cheng Yi were sleeping soundly on the bed.
Lu Ling put one arm on Cheng Yi's abdomen and pressed one leg on Cheng Yi's leg.
Lu Yu pursed his lips and stepped forward decisively to separate the two.
Lu Lingyi, who was carried to the empty bed next to him, opened his eyes dazedly: "What are you doing, brother? Why are you here?"
"Interfering with bad sleeping postures," Lu Yu said solemnly, "Why don't you sleep in your own bed and cuddle with others?"
