24. Antecedents & Confessions
The bluestone tile house, the gray and white wall, the flower shadow at the path is wrong, the low tree plays on the wall, enter the door, the square courtyard, a well, a table, four stone benches, an old vine climbs the wooden frame, and the flowers and leaves hang down to block the shade.
Chen Ran stood in the small room, which was empty and had nothing but a dull Eight Immortals table. She looked out from the open wooden lattice window lattice, and Lu Cheng, who had taken off his sweaty shirt, was pulling the well rope to carry water by the well.
Well, after Ji Fangcai was a nymphomaniac at someone's hands in the car, classmate Chen Ran began to drool over the man's upper body again.
I really didn't expect that such a gentle man with polite quality and slow speech has such a good figure, perfect inverted triangle, wide back, strong waist, and the two tendons wrapped on the shoulder blades are undulating and undulating when doing stretching movements, which leads to reverie.
Lu Cheng turned around with the bucket, and saw that Chen Ran's eyes were straight when he looked at his body, and he was not funny in his heart, and he ordered, "Take out the clothes in your bag, you can only scrub them briefly." โ
"Oh," Chen Ran hurriedly responded, but he was spinning in place like a spinning top, and his mind was confused and he couldn't remember where to put the bag he brought.
When Lu Cheng came in the door, she was still looking for it like a headless fly, and it was obvious that the bag was placed on the side stool.
Lu Cheng shook his head helplessly, poured the water from the wooden bucket into the basin on the table, put the two towels together and wrenched the water, one stuffed into her hand, and the other began to wipe her body in front of her.
If you want to die, Chen Ran, who has been hit hard one after another, wants to poke his eyes blind, which is too uncompromising, when he sees good and beautiful, he has independent consciousness, and he can't resist it.
But this person, he, him, is it deliberate, blatantly tempting her. The dripping droplets slid down the texture of the skin, climbed over the peaks, fell to the ground, and then meandered down the depression into a large cloud of black shadow......
What is alive and fragrant, what is unstoppable, ah...... Help, the internal fire is strong, what should I do if I am about to go mad!
Cheng watched Chen Ran's face blush a little bit, to a slight red, to a point of smoking...... Time has passed, when she broke into his house by mistake and saw him who had just come out of the shower, this little thing was exactly the same, and the memory was turned out little by little, with another new experience.
Lu Cheng enjoyed tasting this kind of fun, and took her infatuation with him into her heart little by little, and collected it seriously.
"Okay, have you seen enough, there will be a chance in the future, wash your face first." Lu Cheng put on a change of undershirt, twisted a towel again, and directly helped her wash her face.
Seeing that she is embarrassed, it should almost end, otherwise she will be annoyed in hindsight, and she will sulk endlessly.
Chen Ran was covered with a towel, the back of his neck was held down and did not move, since he was in elementary school, he lived to such an age, and once again experienced the feeling of being served to wash his face.
"Alright, alright." Seeing that his hand was about to reach below his neck, she hurriedly held it down, "I'll come by myself, come by myself." โ
Lu Cheng was not reluctant, and handed it to her, "The well water is a little cold, it's okay." โ
"Okay, okay, it's comfortable." She's hot from the inside out, and now give her a jar of ice water, and she'll hold it.
The two of them wiped their sweat, Chen Ran refused to wear his clothes, and as soon as he poured the water, he heard the sound of small footsteps kicking towards this side.
"Auntie, the pastry is here." But it was a little boy with tied hair, dressed in a green cloth shirt, third-class in length, carrying a small basket in his hand, the bottom of which rubbed against the ground, and was pulled into the courtyard.
This is the little owner of this deep mountain bamboo sea courtyard, when they came to knock on the door, he opened the door.
Mao Xiaodao is five years old, with cute ice and snow, and a mellow and mellow bun just baked.
To say that Chen Ran was still a little afraid of this place just now, his doubts disappeared in an instant after seeing Xiaodao.
Hearing that he was coming, Chen Ran put aside Lu Cheng and went out to greet him, hurriedly took the basket, and told him with maternal love, "Go slowly, be careful of tripping." โ
Mao Xiaodao liked her very much from the moment he saw Chen Ran, and called her aunt as soon as he opened his mouth (although she preferred to let him call her sister), and took her hand and went home, ignoring Lu Cheng who came with him.
"Auntie, the pastries are made by Xiaodao, and they are delicious." Xiaodao climbed up to the table of the Eight Immortals lightly, and asked Chen Ran to put all the pastries in the small basket on the table, shaking his tender little tender hands, and smiling sweetly and cutely.
"Really!" Chen Ran praised it very much, but when he saw the plate of eight-color pastries, his stomach didn't obey the call, and he was a little hungry after a long day. However, she still took a piece of pink and white square cake and handed it to Xiaodao, "You can eat it too." โ
Xiaodao tilted his head and didn't answer, and the old god pushed it back to her mouth, "Auntie, I usually eat this, it's rare for you to come here, you can eat it quickly." โ
Hearing him say this, Chen Ran was not polite, ah woo big mouthful, well, sweet and soft, palatable and not sticky to teeth, unexpectedly delicious.
The pastries sold outside, no matter how famous they are, often feel good after eating a piece, and they are easy to get tired of eating again, I have to say that the pastries of the Taoist family are really not delicious when she is hungry.
After eating three pieces in one go, she was still unsatisfied, and her eyes dug out of the pastry only to find that the big and small people at the table were staring at her eating alone.
"Why don't you eat it, it's really delicious." Chen Ran only remembered Lu Cheng at this time, and embarrassedly picked up a piece of pastry for him.
Mao Xiaodao watched her movements and smiled slightly. Lu Cheng didn't care about him at all, so he swallowed it with her hand, and by the way, he helped her wipe the corners of her mouth stained with crumbs, and said, "Eat less pastries, it's easy to block your stomach." โ
Chen Ran nodded again and again, saying that he would not eat another piece, after all, he had eaten all the pastries of other people, and it was not decent.
"When will your master come back?" Lu Cheng turned his head to ask Mao Xiaodao, his tone was hard, not at all like he was talking to a five-year-old child.
Chen Ran ate her last piece of pastry and didn't pay attention, Mao Xiaodao was already very unhappy when he didn't let her eat more pastries, and replied impatiently, "It's not that you said it, in the back yam field, you won't look for it yourself." โ
The words were too gloomy, but with a soft and glutinous child's accent, which sounded very disagreeable, Chen Ran looked back at him in surprise.
When Mao Xiaodao looked at Chen Ran, he changed his ignorant and flattering expression on his face, which was very cute.
Chen Ran is the big one just finished fascinated, and the small one was fascinated again, looking back at the environment here, and felt that Mao Xiaodao was really pitiful, he was a child in the deep mountains and old forests, and he would have to go over the mountains and mountains in the future, isn't this a typical difficult student?
Lu Cheng didn't want her to look at others like this, but she couldn't say it, so she knocked on the table several times with her finger irritably, and made a decision, "In that case, Chen Ran, let's go first." โ
"No," Mao Xiaodao jumped down from the stool, and was about to shout something, when he saw Chen Ran looking at him with strange eyes, and after being stunned, his voice became soft again, "Auntie, I'm alone at home, you can play with me." โ
I really wanted to take it away, what should I do, Chen Ran took his hand lovingly, and wanted to comfort him in his arms, but before he could do anything, an arm stretched out next to him, forcibly separating the two.
Chen Ran was inexplicable, and Mao Xiaodao was even more angry.
"Ouch, Xiaodao, who's in the house?" The sudden loud sound outside the gate startled countless birds.
Chen Ran, who had never seen the world, looked at the people in the room in panic, but saw that none of them reacted.
Mao Xiaodao took this opportunity to take her hand, "Auntie, the master is here, let them talk, let's go to the backyard for a walk, the flowers in the flower field are blooming." โ
This time, Lu Cheng didn't stop him, and said, "Go, I'll finish talking to the master, and we'll leave." โ
Mao Xiaodao didn't seem to like him leaving, and said pitifully with a diamond-shaped mouth, "Auntie, aunt, don't go, there are fireflies coming in the backyard at night, a lot, it's beautiful." โ
Chen Ran liked Xiaodao when he saw it, but he didn't have the courage to spend the night in such a strange place, looking at his eyes was destined to disappoint him, and he felt a little sad in his heart.
The loud voice outside stepped into the door while speaking, Chen Ran actually longed for the master in the small road, after all, there was such a cute little apprentice, so the master didn't know what kind of fairy wind dao bone he looked like.
But the person who kicked in the door completely overturned her imagination, the person who came was seven feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, a big beard that covered his whole face, a hemp bag in his hand, a high and low trouser leg, and dry mud on his pull back shoes.
"Little Brother Lu turned out to be you, you came on time, and the little lady of the Chen family is also here, welcome." After Mao Xiaodao's master recognized the person, there was a series of loud laughter, and his voice was loud and loud.
"Master, don't come unharmed." Lu Chengwen's crepe salute.
When Chen Ran was dumbfounded, he secretly thought, if this is the one she sees when she enters the door, she must not even be able to enter the door, and she will run away.
"Is this your master?" Chen Ran was really skeptical.
"It's my master," Mao Xiaodao raised his head and defended his master seriously, "Aunt, you can't look at people on the surface, my master is much better than that." โ
That, which? Regardless of what Xiaodao said, Chen Ran saw the suspicion of a trafficker in this person called the master, and his heart chuckled.
"Xiaodao, what about your parents, why don't you live with your parents?"
The meaning of these words is too obvious, even the master who was busy putting the sack in the door and washing his feet with water heard it, looked back at her teasingly, and said, "Little lady, the person in this world who can turn this kid has not been born yet." โ
Heh, Chen Ran pinched her nose and was embarrassed, suspecting that she was poked on the spot, she was a newcomer again, and when she saw Lu Cheng, she didn't think so, she must have been too careful, it would be bad if she annoyed the master's family.
"Alright, you guys go to the backyard." Lu Cheng stood up to relieve the siege, mainly because the master was ready to take off his clothes and rinse them with cold water without any taboos, and if he went down, he was afraid that he would hurt his eyes.
Mao Xiaodao cheered, pulled Chen Ran and ran through the side door.
After seeing the people leave, Lu Cheng came out of the house with a bamboo chair and moved to the side door to sit to prevent people from going and returning.
The rugged man decisively took off his clothes, revealing a body of tendon meat, which was much stronger than Lu Cheng just now. Naked, naked, exposed under the blue sky and bamboo sea. The people of the mountains and wilderness chose to live here for the sake of that freedom, only if you are adaptable, how can he avoid it for you.
There was a sound of water in the courtyard for a while, no one spoke, and occasionally the laughter in the backyard came, Lu Cheng looked up at the clouds in the sky, listening to the bamboo sea surging, the breeze blowing on his face, and the mood was never more comfortable.
The previous life was busy, and this life started all over again, maybe it is best to be born, old, sick and die in the deep mountains and old forests, but even if the red world is still a seclusion, someone should accompany him, and Chen Ran, who is now at his age, is afraid that he can't stand this loneliness.
Lu Cheng didn't waste the time of the others thinking too much, and after the master took a shower and went out of the house, his clothes had been changed into a green shirt like Mao Xiaodao, with a sandalwood box in one hand, a short inch on his head, and a clip-on slippers on his feet, which was nondescript.
He picked up a futon out of nowhere, and sat cross-legged next to Lu Cheng, "Here, if you don't want the bracelet, it will be made into a jade plate, and the little girl will like it." โ
Lu Cheng took it, opened the lid of the box, and saw that there was a jade plate with a carved bamboo section lying inside, the jade color was green and moist, the size of a baby's palm, and there was a warm flow in the hand, and the smell of the fragrance was exactly the same as the sachet he wore on his body all day, that is, the fragrance on the jade plate was lighter and more natural.
"This is medicinal jade, a piece of warm jade comes out of ten thousand high-grade jade, and a thousand pieces of warm jade can be made into medicinal jade, soaked in seven hundred and forty-nine days of soul-attracting incense, and it is shocking to store zร i outside, it is not easy." The big man was triumphant, his eyes glued to the jade in his hand, and he looked reluctant.
Lu Cheng was very unimpressed, threw the box away, and the medicine jade was stuffed directly into his pocket.
"Eh, that's a treasure, you should cherish it, it's really a loser." The big man smashed his mouth and closed it again under Lu Cheng's cold gaze.
"The old rule, if you like something, go directly to Steward Hong to ask for it."
Dahan obviously waited for this sentence, and his brows flew with a smile, "It's really good, don't worry, what I fancy is the holy relics of our immeasurable sect, which originally belonged to our family, but it was just a matter of spending some money to get it back." โ
Lu Cheng didn't bother to despise him, and his tone was cold, "Oh, the Russian Easter eggs, Monet's oil paintings, and the top red jade that just came out of the gambling stone...... They are all sacred relics of your teaching. โ
Such a little damage value, can't hurt the master a single hair, unashamedly replied, "Mortals are ignorant, there are spiritual treasures, the East and the West are the same, just because the aura loves to follow the beautiful things, the breath contained in nature is considerable, our immeasurable sect cultivates the qi of spiritual things, since others have nothing to get, I can teach it, that is, the spiritual objects in the world are all sacred relics I teach......"
"Okay, okay," Lu Cheng couldn't understand the words of the gods, and he didn't want to listen to them, "Talking about business, you've also seen it, what is it?" โ
The master picked his feet and replied casually, "Very good, Little Brother Lu has the great luck of heaven, and with the help of our immeasurable Pope, he will be ...... in this life."
"I mean, can she cure her problem of not remembering people."
Lu Cheng accentuated his tone, about Chen Ran's matter, he really didn't want to listen to people sloppy.
If he hadn't clearly remembered that in the last days of his previous life, he really encountered this big and small suspicion of being a liar, and exchanged an agreement that was impossible to achieve in his previous life for a so-called vitality.
He was dying at that time, there was nothing to lose, and there was nothing to disagree, so before he died, he made a fool of himself, and he agreed to whatever the two liars said.
As a result, when my eyes were closed, I opened them again, and I went back to fifteen years ago......
At that time, he was abroad, and immediately bought a plane ticket to return to China, but as soon as he got out of the airport, he was intercepted by this hateful big and small.
It is said that the โกโก is reversed, the world has been chaotic, and order has been ...... from the beginning A lot of mysterious and mysterious words. In short, it is time for him to appear again, otherwise it will definitely harm the people around him, and he will never get what he wants.
Who are the people around him, who are the people he cares about, why did he come back again, such a mysterious thing as rebirth happened to him, and he couldn't help but care about what they warned him.
So, fifteen years of painstaking arrangements, but he didn't dare to step into Wu City, and now, there are strange things happening to her, he doesn't really care if she recognizes him or not, but he is used to being cautious, for fear that there are other things that don't know cause and effect.
"Oh, the little lady's symptoms are only for you, the world is reversed, you have all started again, and it is very possible that the little lady's resentment will be carried from the past life to this life."
Lu Cheng was dissatisfied with his attitude, and said with a calm face, "Make it clear." โ
The master can't, who called him their biggest financier now, it's not easy to offend, "Let's not talk about whether it can be cured, you said that if this is cured, her memories of her past life will also come back, what should I do." โ
Lu Cheng didn't make a sound when he heard it, he is a businessman, a businessman knows how to pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages, use the simplest means, and the best results, if he regrets selling medicine in his previous life, he may go bankrupt. How grateful he was to come back to his life, he was the only one who had the memories of his past life, and she didn't. The master's words directly poked at his weakness.
"There were many hardships in the past life, so why should you harm this life?" The master said golden sentences, like bells ringing.
Lu Cheng looked at the sky speechlessly, and after being silent for a long time, he asked again, "Is that soul-attracting incense really harmless to the human body?" โ
"Absolutely not, one-third of the efficacy of the ancient Danfang has long been lost, if it weren't for Xiaodao to find a single word from the ancient books, maybe what." The master believed in Xiaodao's methods, and continued to preach, "This incense is only effective for lovers, as long as she has a little affection for you, even if she can't remember your face for the rest of her life, she will be drawn by the soul incense and recognize you among millions of people, which is much more meaningful than seeing with your eyes." โ
It's just by the eyes, the other by the feelings, if you have to say that, dare to ask what's the point?
Lu Cheng was slandered in his heart, but he was more concerned about another thing, "What if it is a soul-attracting incense with all its effects?" โ
Shouldn't it be a big thing here, the master was forced to ask by him not to play the cards according to the rules of the cards and had a headache, "If it is a complete soul-attracting incense, you should fall in love with the little lady and kill each other now, it's not good, your previous life, your previous life was a grudge, and the memories of several lives have been drawn out, and you still want to make up for the regrets of your previous life, and dream faster." โ
Lu Cheng continued to ask, "Is it true that she is also back, and you deliberately blinded the memory of her previous life?" โ
"Phew, do you think that you will be reborn by selling cabbage on the street," the topic changed to a bastard, and the master broke a mouthful of resentment, "I don't know how he did it, but our family trail has been a little big for fifteen years, isn't the price enough, ah!" โ
After the master finished speaking, he left angrily, even if he was the gold owner, he didn't want to give face.
Lu Cheng's face was thick and dark, and he got the answer he wanted to know, and without any burden, he went to the backyard to find Chen Ran.
At that time, she was taking off her shoes with Xiaodao to catch fish and shrimp in the pond to play, her freshly wiped face was drenched with sweat, and the trouser legs that were pulled high to her thighs were soaked, and the front of her upper body was also soaked.
"Okay, Chen Ran, let's go back."
Lu Cheng looked dazzling, shouted three or four times before calling the person ashore, and asked her to say goodbye to Mao Xiaodao, who was constantly tempted by the fun of the mountains, before taking the person out of the door.
Even the clothes were let for her to change in the car, but she refused to let her stay there for a second longer.
"What can I do?" Chen Ran looked down at the obviously ill-fitting clothes on his body and was worried, "Dressed like this, everyone won't misunderstand." โ
"Misunderstanding what?" Lu Cheng could only distract a little from her, after all, it was nearly dusk, and the road in the forest was already difficult to walk.
"Why did I go when I misunderstood, and I came back wearing men's clothes."
"Well, stay with me that night and go back tomorrow."
"Ah, how can that work?" Chen Ran felt panicked when she thought about it, being in the same room with a man, what did it matter, Chen's mother would beat her to death.
Lu Cheng stepped on the brakes, knowing that it was necessary to smooth out the relationship, "Chen Ran, we are both like this, and you still care about me?" โ
Chen Ran was very nervous by him, "How are we?" โ
"Hug and hug, kiss and kiss, don't you know my heart for you?"
The expression on which he said this was so aggrieved, as if she had been giving up and hurting his true heart. Ahh
"What do you say?" Chen Ran bit his lip, his mouth was stiff, the light in the forest was getting darker and darker, and it really didn't matter if he didn't leave.
"Don't you like me at all?" At the critical moment, thinking of something else, Lu Cheng grabbed her shoulder sideways, leaving her with no room to dodge.
Chen Ran was really flustered by him, pinched his nose, and scratched his ears, he was really not sure to talk about this kind of thing here.
"Let's go first, it's getting dark."
"Chen Ran." Lu Cheng laughed angrily, and pressed his forehead against her, is there really nothing he can do with her?
"Ah," Chen Ran looked up in panic, but saw that his face was very close to her, and the warm breath hit her face, itchy and unbearable, and she wanted to hide but was reluctant.
"Chen Ran, I like you, be my girlfriend."
Lu Cheng, who has a determined gaze, is affectionate and eternal, under such an extreme sight, who can dodge, and who can escape.
"Don't look at me like that." Chen Ran was a little scared, but also a little happy, afraid that he didn't seem to like him as much, and he was happy that such a person would like him.
Lu Cheng, who couldn't bear it, unbuckled her seat belt again, hugged her and sat firmly on her lap despite her objections, "Don't move, don't be afraid, I'll hug you." โ
Chen Ran could only be close to his chest, forced to listen to his heartbeat, the resonance worked, and her heart was hot and difficult to hold.
"Be my girlfriend, okay?" Lu Cheng lowered his head and leaned on her neck, the two of them were like mandarin ducks with their necks crossed, in the half-light and half-dark car, the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.
"Okay." Chen Ran heard himself gently spit out the word, and his hot heart followed Anshun. She had been preparing for this moment for a long time, all because he was too anxious step by step, and she couldn't let her speak well, yes, because of this, it was really shy.
"Yes."
The warmth of her lips and tongue hit her shoulder blades, Chen Ran dodged it shamefully, thinking inappropriately, oops, I sweated so much today, and I haven't taken a shower yet.
"Don't, itchy." Chen Ran broke out and looked at him pitifully.
The lover is in her arms, it is impossible not to move her thoughts, Lu Cheng wanted to be intimate and relieve her fatigue, but she was instantly defeated by her gaze, the little girl did not understand the amorous feelings, and there was a long way to go.
Chen Ran was relieved to see that he was no longer making trouble, she had just confirmed the relationship, no matter what she did, she felt that the development was too fast.
"Hey, what is this?" As soon as her neck was cold, something hung on her chest, Chen Ran looked down and found that it was a piece of jade.
"A token of love, you can't take it off if you promise it." Lu Cheng helped her put the jade in the placket of her clothes, and told again, "What the master gave is good for you, and you must not take it off." โ
Chen Ran didn't comprehend the spirit, and took it in his hand and looked at it again, "Mao Xiaodao's master gave it?" How can the jade be a little warm to the touch, it's very expensive, what if you lose it? โ
"It doesn't matter if you lose it, it doesn't matter if you lose it, there is nothing in this world that is more precious than you."
Lu Cheng's love words came casually, and Chen Ran's face was red and trembling, he lowered his head and touched the jade on his neck, and muttered in a low voice, "Then I don't have anything for you." โ
"It's enough to have you."
โฆโฆ In terms of love words, someone is completely defeated.
Back at the hotel, it was past ten o'clock in the evening, Lu Cheng sent her back to the room safely at her request, and she didn't meet an acquaintance on the way, she was satisfied and happy.
That night, Chen Ran took a shower and lay down in bed, thinking about whether to send a good night text message for a long time, and finally he sent it first.
[Did you sleep?] ใ
[Sleep, good night]
[Hmm.] ใ
โฆโฆ That's it, isn't it too bland, maybe you should call directly, or say a few more words, oh, it's annoying, how do people talk about love...... Chen Ran, who suffered from gains and losses, had a good night's sleep.
It has been two days since Chen Ran returned to Wu City from Hushi, and the two have not had a chance to meet since then, and the most contact is text messages and occasional brief phone calls.
At the beginning, Chen Ran was still a little restrained, thinking about how often it was appropriate to send text messages, he didn't call, she called, was it too unreserved.
The actual situation is that restraint is only a second, just think about his thoughts, the phone will be dialed automatically, and there is still a little shame when the beep sounds, as long as he picks it up, all the careful thoughts are thrown behind, ask him where he is, whether he is busy, has he eaten, the cold snap is coming, remember to add more clothes, and he also listens to the lack of taste, but he is not tired of it.
When she arrived in Wu City, it was five o'clock in the evening, she didn't enter the house to look at the next door, the door was locked, and no one came back at all.
There was a little disappointment, but after opening the door, "Mom and Dad, I'm back." โ
"When did you arrive, I just wanted to call and ask where you are......" cares about her father.
"We'll talk later, let's eat first." A hard-mouthed and soft-hearted mother.
"Ah, if you go out and take nothing with you, you shouldn't have any hope." A complaining foodie brother.ใ
The family's worries made her little disappointment automatically disappear and forget about it.
Life seems to be back to normal, because of her unspeakable carefulness, Chen Ran has never told her parents about her relationship with Lu Cheng.
So much so that when I hitchhiked in the morning, I resorted to the trick of SMS communication, and occasionally encountered it, but it was also a sneaky deliberate distance. In this regard, Lu Cheng cooperated and did not express his position.
Chen Ran was satisfied with peace of mind, but he didn't know that it was exactly what someone wanted.
"Chen Ran, I'm leaving." After work one day, Xiao Xiao pulled her to walk with her, and came halfway to such a sentence.
Chen Ran was startled, thinking that she was going to leave, but her expression was faintly excited, and she was a little uncertain, "Where are you going?" โ
"Go to Haishi, I didn't tell you."
As soon as she reminded her, Chen Ran remembered, "Accountant Rong agreed." โ
"She recommended me, and Accountant Rong is really a good person." Xiao Xiao seemed to be really moved, and when she said this, she looked sincere, "I used to think that she was in charge too much, but in fact, it was all for my good, there are too few such leaders in these years." โ
Since Chen Ran's debut, she has been a leader, and there is no comparison, but her good impression of Accountant Rong has long been sublimated to the point of respect after returning from Hushi, "Then when will you leave?" After the Haishi training, come back. โ
"Next Monday, the training is over, and I haven't decided where to go."
When Chen Ran talked to her before, he knew that she wanted to go around with work, of course, it was understandable that she would develop elsewhere at her age. She herself is not self-motivated, but she is also envious of other people's efforts, "You have to work hard, and when I see you in the future, I have to call the leader." โ
"Haha," Xiao Xiao was also full of confidence in the future, waving her fist and aspiring, "Break into the world and chase the male god, I will succeed." โ
Chen Ran admired it, and sighed involuntarily, what is her dream, to live and work in peace and contentment, is the idle wife and mother angry with someone? Thinking about it, she is also quite incompetent, and I don't know what he likes about her.
"Before I leave, I want to invite Accountant Rong to have a meal, and you can come along."
"Yes, if you don't invite her together, I'll come to Hengrui, you helped me."
The two fought for a while for who to invite, but in the end, Xiao Xiao insisted, and she could only give up.
However, this incident made her suddenly realize that Xiao Xiao had helped her so much, and now that she was leaving, she remembered to thank her, is it not very easy to go on the road.
She hid this in her heart and didn't dare to tell her family, for fear that Chen's mother would scold her and nag endlessly. But there is no burden at all when I talk to Lu Cheng.
After dinner, she hid in the room to make a phone call, since the relationship with him was confirmed, this kind of behavior has become more and more, Chen's father and Chen's mother are not without suspicions, after all, she used to like to watch TV in the living room for a while after eating, listen to them talk casually and then go back to the room.
But in addition to going back to the room early, she didn't see her go out on a date at night, which was a bit different. Suspicious and suspicious for so many days, everyone agreed that no one had pierced this piece of paper.
When Chen Ran just called, Lu Cheng was really at home, and Du Wufu was with him.
When Du Wufu came, he brought a hotel takeaway and a bottle of red wine, which Lu Cheng opened for him.
It was the first time he came here, and after entering the door, he couldn't help but take a few more looks, the decoration style inside was amazing in the eyes of ordinary people like Chen Ran, but in the eyes of people like Du Wufu who had seen the world, it was a little too simple.
When he got the address, he was a little strange, after all, although Wu City is not a first-tier city, there are many luxurious residential areas, as far as he knows, Mr. Lu first settled in a lake-view villa on the outskirts of the city, the environment, security measures, are more than a hundred times better than the current one.
"I still have something to do inside," Lu Cheng said hello to him and entered the study.
Du Wufu understood very well, and spontaneously went to the restaurant and set the table to sober up.
When the dishes on the table were cold, and Du Wufu was considering whether to heat it up, Lu Cheng finally came out of the study, but the person came out, obviously the matter was not finished yet, and he was still talking on his mobile phone while walking.
Something worth his attention was that his tone was too gentle.
โโฆโฆ Don't worry, they are all from the same company, you are well-behaved and sensible, they should like you...... Yes, it's good for you, and that's because you didn't do anything wrong...... Don't worry, it's okay...... Besides, there is me, I will remember for you, in the future, they will ask you for something, and then return the favor. โ
"Well, well, she told you to go, and you went...... Hmm," Lu Cheng sat down at the table, nodded at Du Wufu, and motioned for him to sit too.
Du Wufu listened to a paragraph without beginning or end, and it was enough to surprise him, and the decanting utensils could be poured out of the wine glass, and he hurriedly got up to find a rag.
"Haishi, yes, if you want to go, you can go...... No kidding, I said you can go if you can...... I'll be going there a lot next month, so why don't you come with me...... I'm serious, think about it...... Now I'm at home, really, don't lie to you......" The other party didn't know what he said, Lu Cheng glanced at Du Wufu.
At this glance, Du Wufu only felt as if he was disgusted, wasn't it the right time to come?
โโฆโฆ Not coming? There happens to be a guest at home, and I'll be here tomorrow night, okay, okay, goodbye. โ
It's really not the right time, Du Wufu thought firmly.
Lu Cheng put his phone aside, took his chopsticks and raised his hand, "Eat." โ
The two scribbled a meal, and Du Wufu scratched his heart and lungs curiously, but he didn't ask a word with great vision.
โโฆโฆ I want to give up the land in the name of Du Shi and bid publicly. Speaking of business, the two of them went to the study.
"Think about it," Lu Cheng made a pot of tea for him and sent it to him, "Old Lady Du is so good at talking this time." โ
Du Wufu took a sip of tea and replied ruthlessly, "The old lady has become more and more confused over the years, I didn't agree when I photographed the boat, my third uncle is a self-proclaimed hero, and he has been dangling in front of me for two or three years. โ
Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows and smiled, "You didn't come today to let Hengrui buy Yan Zhou, so you think I can still ask for it." โ
Du Wufu replied, "I'm also telling the truth, Yanzhou is a good project, but it's too time-consuming and labor-intensive, Du Shi can't do it, not that Hengrui can't do it, it's been three years, and I'm not willing to let others pick up the cheap." โ
"Yan Zhou," Lu Cheng said with a smile, "Hengrui can't afford it either." โ
As soon as these words came out, Du Wufu unconsciously straightened his back and gave up the boat, which is a real cut for Du Shi, the project is really good, and the return rate in the later stage is absolutely considerable, it can be said that as long as it is done, it can be used for Du Shi to stabilize for another ten years.
This kind of calculation even Du Laosan knew, otherwise when he won the boat with a much higher expected purchase amount, everyone congratulated them, and Du's shareholders were proud of it for many days.
Originally, the Du family did not have so much strength, and he lost the first move, and the failure could be delayed until three years later, and he did his best as the current head of the Du family.
Hengrui was not involved in this matter at the beginning, and now, Lu Cheng is not optimistic about the project of Yan Zhou, and even Du Wufu has doubts about the future of Yan Zhou for the first time.
He thought back to all the reports on the boat, and he still couldn't be sure, "You mean? โ
Lu Cheng smelled the fragrance of tea and shook his head lightly, "This is my personal opinion of Yan Zhou, and the result is not worth investing." Dushi can't afford it anymore, so it's better to get rid of it early. โ
Du Wufu turned this matter around in his heart, and then made a decision, "Thank you, third brother." "Usually when he is outside, he calls Lu Cheng Mr., the two are also teachers and friends, and the relationship is better in private, according to his order in the family, call him the third brother.
Lu Cheng nodded, and when he saw that he had listened, he gave up. After the business was over, the topic was a little lighter.
"Lu Yan, I've been asking you where you are these days, why, haven't you told her?"
Lu Cheng turned on the computer, habitually opened the webpage, and looked at Chen Ran's Weibo, except for the Hushi he went to a few days ago, and a few landscape photos were uploaded, which have not been updated in the past few days.
"You don't need to sue her, you know everything except Xiao Lian here."
Du Wufu was really surprised, and asked half-jokingly, "Then you are hiding from people?" โ
Lu Cheng smiled, "No." "It's almost the same to find someone, but he doesn't want to deliberately hide it from him, Du Wufu in his previous life failed to climb to the position of the head of the Du family, he has always been his assistant, and he is also one of the few people around him who can treat Chen Ran well.
"Now is not the time, when the opportunity is right, I will introduce you to each other." I hope that in this life, he can also become Chen Ran's help.
Du Wufu's heart warmed, he never knew why someone like Lu Cheng would take a fancy to him, a child of the Du family, and support him all the way. But after so many years of getting along, he just doesn't have the heart to know anymore, and his help to him, even if he does everything he has now, it is difficult to repay one or two.
As one of the top young people in power in the market, in front of him, he bowed his head willingly.
