Chapter 18 Elegant, General Manager Lu
Lin Xiaoxiao finally hurried to the agreed place at a quarter past 6 o'clock - a private restaurant called Yinshanju.
The courtyard is elegantly arranged, with small bridges and flowing water, and the environment is quiet, and Lin Xiaoxiao entered the backyard under the leadership of a beautiful waiter wearing a cheongsam. Yinshanju seems to be low-key, but it has a kind of ancient charm, and the atmosphere is full of the comfort of paradise, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that this place is extraordinary. She was still a little nervous at the thought of really seeing him, and then she heard the waiter who led the way say, "It's here, Miss Lin, please come in." The other party opened the door and raised his hand respectfully.
"Thank you." Lin Xiaoxiao said in a low voice, and then stepped into the private room. As soon as he entered the door, he saw a mahogany multi-treasure pavilion, and through the gap in the lattice, Lin Xiaoxiao saw a man sitting with his back to the door, with broad shoulders and a tall sitting posture, very imposing. Lin Xiaoxiao stood at the door and hesitated, at this time she was really a little uneasy, and suddenly, the door was opened, "Lin Xiaoxiao, when do you want to ink, I'm about to starve to death." Luo Ziyu said as he pulled Lin Xiaoxiao into the room.
"This is my prospective fiancΓ© and your big boss Lu Shaoyang. This is what I often mention to you, my goddess - Lin Xiaoxiao. Luo Ziyu quickly jumped to Lu Shaoyang's side, happily holding his arm and introduced.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Lu." The two politely leaned over and shook hands.
Lu Shaoyang's impression of Lin Xiaoxiao was that he was tall and slightly thin, but he gave people a very powerful feeling. At first glance, it looks very strict, but after a few more glances, I feel that he has an indescribable temperament, very handsome and mature and introverted, which is a kind of elegance that blurs the age, like tea, handsome and melodious. Is he the person Yu's mother said? Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but look more and more carefully.
"Lin Xiaoxiao, I thought you were serious when you said you were infatuated with me before, but now it's been less than a week, it seems that you forgot about me, didn't you?" Lin Xiaoxiao, who was called by name, noticed the man he saw outside the house just now, with his back to the door. He is none other than Yan Ershao, who rushed all the way back from the army to spend the weekend with a certain woman.
Lin Xiaoxiao turned his head and saw that Yan Lang was wearing a dark purple plaid shirt, loose dark pants, neat short black hair, and an angular face, handsome and fashionable, this look really didn't look like a soldier at all, but very much like the cover models of those trendy magazines.
Yan Lang stood up suddenly, put his face in front of Lin Xiaoxiao, pointed to the OK bandage on his cheek, and said, "Is it because my face is ruined, you are going to abandon me?" "Every gesture gives people the appearance of a full ruffian.
"Ahem, ahem...... Hello, Mr. Yan. Lin Xiaoxiao pretended to cough and turned her face sideways, so as to take the opportunity to avoid Yan Lang's peach blossom electric eyes, blinked her eyes fiercely, and motioned to Luo Ziyu to hurry up and relieve her. Lin Xiaoxiao was very afraid of looking at Yan Lang, she always felt that his eyes were as deep as a whirlpool, and she would be bewitched if she was not careful, she suddenly regretted why she took off this demon's sunglasses in the first place. It was lethal enough when you wore sunglasses, and now ...... Lin Xiaoxiao felt a choke in his heart.
Luo Ziyu can't do anything now, after all, people are soft-spoken, and she can only look at Lu Shaoyang beside her as if asking for help. For such a Yan Lang, Lu Shaoyang also saw it for the first time, originally he was still thinking about Yan Ershao, who had always been arrogant, why he suddenly took the initiative to ask to be his best man, it turned out that the drunkard didn't mean to drink.
"Secretary Lin, I should have come directly from the construction site, I must have been hungry for a long time, let's order food first and chat while eating." Lu Shaoyang's fluttering words solved Lin Xiaoxiao's urgent need. At this time, Lin Xiaoxiao found that his white shirt was stained in several places, and a pair of black flat shoes were also full of dust, which looked really wolf.
Yan Lang pulled the chair back a little bit more gentlemanly, Lin Xiaoxiao had been in a state of fugue and didn't notice this at all, not to mention that she was really tired after walking for most of the day, so she sat down naturally, Yan Lang gently looked at the woman who had already sat down in front of her, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook slightly. In Luo Ziyu's eyes, this qiΔ was like seeing a UFO - such a person who gave people a feeling of superiority also had such a gentle side, and she couldn't help but be happy for Lin Xiaoxiao from the bottom of her heart.
Luo Ziyu put away the snickering joy in her heart, and asked while flipping through the menu cards, "What do you want to eat?" β
Lin Xiaoxiao thought that it was her own money that was spent, and blurted out without thinking about it: "What is cheap to eat", at this time she happened to see Mr. Lu's floating eyes, and suddenly felt inappropriate, and hurriedly added: "I'm joking, everyone wants to eat what they want......" Then she picked up the water cup in front of her and poured it violently, although she was trying to hide her embarrassment, but she stayed outside for an afternoon without a drop of water, and now she is really thirsty.
It's just that she was so confused that she drank not a drop of water from Yan Lang's water cup, because she sat on the waiter and didn't have time to prepare water for her. Yan Lang didn't seem to notice that his water was drunk by the woman next to him, and he filled up the two teacups in front of him without a trace. Luo Ziyu once again stunned the scene in front of him, but the two people opposite were unaware, which was very reasonable.
Yan Lang seemed to be nonchalantly and said, "If you don't have a special preference, let's try the latest medicinal food, which is good for the body." Simply ordered the dish, pressed the black button on the table, and soon there was a knock on the door, and the waitress in a cheongsam walked in.
After the waitress left, Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly felt that she was really a little abrupt, one was her best friend's fiancΓ© she had only met for the first time, and the other was someone she had only met a few times and was not very familiar with at all. "The first time I came, I saw a recommended signature dish outside the store...... Lin Xiaoxiao once again put himself in an embarrassing situation.
"Our family Xiaoxiao has a knack for forgetting." Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly felt that being explained by Luo Ziyu was suspicious of getting darker and darker, and this subtext was not to say that she was a foodie. Years of dating made the two of them laugh together.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and it was time to serve the food. Looking at the waiters who rushed in, both of them temporarily restrained their laughter.
"Are you still happy working in the Lu Group for the past few days?"
"Huh?" Yan Lang's sudden question made Lin Xiaoxiao a little excited, but she still replied very seriously: "The work is relatively busy, but it is very fulfilling, and you can learn a lot." Looking at all this, I should say that I am very happy. β
Yan Lang nodded thoughtfully and didn't speak again. Lin Xiaoxiao was holding a glass with clear water, and he couldn't figure out why he asked like this, shouldn't this question be asked by the big boss in front of him, what kind of trouble did he ask?
On the side, Luo Ziyu was very concerned and said: "Xiaoxiao, if you encounter any difficult or tricky things in the company, you can find Shaoyang!" β
"Thank you, Mrs. President." Lin Xiaoxiao quipped.
"Drink the soup first, replenish the middle and nourish the qi." Yan Lang put a bowl of soup in front of Lin Xiaoxiao, and introduced: "This honey yam is the chef's specialty, you can also taste it." Yan Lang's speed of speech was not fast, and his speech was concise and clear, but he introduced it very clearly.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't want to refuse his kindness, drank the soup, and ate a few dishes he introduced, although it was a medicinal meal, but the medicinal taste was not heavy, and it tasted very delicious, Lin Xiaoxiao was already half late when she reacted, but Yan Lang didn't move his chopsticks much, and kept taking care of her. Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoxiao's face turned red all of a sudden, looking at Luo Ziyu's playful expression, she was even more embarrassed, she really didn't understand what Yan Ershao was doing now?
"I heard that Secretary Lin has taken over the project of Qianlong Real Estate?" After all, Lu Shaoyang has seen a big scene, but he is very calm about Yan Lang like this.
"Well, by the way, Mr. Lu, I met Mayor Song this afternoon."
Sure enough, as soon as this sentence came out, Lu Shaoyang's eyebrows raised.
Lin Xiaoxiao immediately said: "It was the mayor who came to the construction site, which is the construction site of the wild park, I was going to go to the nail household in the afternoon, but Li Qi came to me and said that the mayor was nearby, let's go and see, this Mayor Song is very young, he doesn't look like a person in his early thirties, he is really young." β
Lu Shaoyang and Yan Lang exchanged glances with each other, although Yan Lang is not in politics and only asks about the family's business, but where can he be born in a wealthy family and make himself really ignorant of the world, the juniors of the Song family, he and Lu Shaoyang have met when they were in Kyoto, among which Song Yuming is the eldest in the family, but it is not worse than those few than the mental means. Within a few days of arriving in City A, he dared to make such a big move, and the background of the Song family in City A should not be underestimated. Similarly, Song Yuming's ability, he, Lu Shaoyang, deliberately understood it when this person was just sent down, and he was a sharp person.
But Lin Xiaoxiao's words were in Yan Lang's ears, and he originally had two points of appreciation for Song Yuming, but now that little bit of goodwill immediately disappeared.
"Am I not younger than him Song Yuming?" Yan Lang snorted coldly.
Lin Xiaoxiao noticed the coolness in his words, but she couldn't understand Yan Lang's reaction to the disconnection at all, but when she thought of the fact that people had been giving her vegetables just now, there was a saying that eating people had short mouths, so she had to immediately pat herself on the back: "I always thought that the people who could be mayors in China were forty or fifty-year-old uncles, so I was a little surprised that Mayor Song was so young." But whether it's appearance or talent, no matter how you look at it, Mr. Lu and you are even better. Lin Xiaoxiao's sycophant didn't even want her dignity, as soon as she finished speaking, she quickly picked up the water cup and took a big sip.
These words seemed to please Yan Lang, and his face softened a little: "You only need to praise me in the future." After listening to this, Lin Xiaoxiao almost didn't come up in one breath and spit out the water in her mouth, but fortunately she stabilized it in time, otherwise Luo Ziyu on the other side would really suffer, and her first meeting with Mr. Lu was really going to end in embarrassment.
Lu Shaoyang's eyes were fixed, and then he asked, "What did you say when you saw the mayor?" β
"I didn't say anything, we just went to the side to knock on the side and take a look, I didn't dare to ask directly, this kind of out-of-the-ordinary thing, Li Qi said that it was better to let others do it, so I just went to understand the situation."
didn't wait for the president's instructions, but Yan Ershao suddenly asked, "So, who is Li Qi?" βγ
Lin Xiaoxiao: "A colleague from the real estate department. β
Yan Lang: "Female? β
"No, man." Lin Xiaoxiao was really strange about Yan Lang's questions, but because of her identity and the presence of others, she had to answer him patiently. Luo Ziyu looked at her friend who was on the verge of collapse in front of her, she felt from her heart that Yan Ershao was definitely Lin Xiaoxiao's fate, if Lin Xiaoxiao knew her thoughts at this time, she would definitely tell Luo Ziyu: Yan Lang is definitely her destined nemesis.
There was silence in the room, but fortunately, Luo Ziyu raised the topic again at the right time, "I heard that Yan Ershao is the youngest colonel in the special forces, so what do special forces usually do?" β
"Special forces generally eat, sleep, train, and go on missions. There is no love, no girlfriends, let alone a chance to get married and have children! Although it was Luo Ziyu who asked, Yan Lang looked at Lin Xiaoxiao seriously and answered.
Lin Xiaoxiao could feel Yan Lang's burning gaze, but on the issue of feelings, she really had no way to respond to the man beside her before she figured it out. Yan Lang looked at Lin Xiaoxiao, who wanted to speak and stopped, his eyes were a little complicated, he lowered his head and poured the water in the cups of the two of them, covering up his inevitable eyes, maybe this look can only be understood by Lu Shaoyang, who is also a man.
This meal, everyone ate quite a lot. Out of the hotel, Yan Lang quickly shackled Lin Xiaoxiao, who was about to get into the car, in his arms, and whispered: "I began to wonder if you have fallen in love with your best friend's husband?" β
Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Yan Lang with a ghostly expression.
"Then you're not going to sabotage, you're going to make light bulbs?" Yan Lang looked at Lin Xiaoxiao in front of him in disbelief.
Lin Xiaoxiao was depressed for a while, just thinking about getting away from the demon behind him, but he forgot that this was a pair of lovers in front of him who had not seen him for a week, and he was really going to follow him to get into the car.
"Secretary Lin, don't you come with us?" Lu Shaoyang looked at Lin Xiaoxiao, who was a little resistant and frowning in Yan Lang's arms, and asked deliberately evilly.
"I have something left on the Xiaoxiao family, so I won't trouble President Lu." Yan Lang saw Lu Shaoyang's bad taste, so he refused directly.
"Yan Ershao, you have already been to Xiaoxiao's house?!" Luo Ziyu looked at Lin Xiaoxiao with a traitorous expression.
"Not only have I been, but I have also slept ......" Yan Lang continued to break the news "kindly".
Lin Xiaoxiao was really speechless, she guessed that Luo Ziyu really wanted to be crooked this time, but the more this kind of thing itself was explained, the more troublesome it became.
Luo Ziyu's mouth was open at this time, and she could stuff an egg, but fortunately, Mr. Lu, who was beside her, forced Luo Ziyu, who had not yet gotten rid of the shock, into the car, otherwise with Luo Ziyu's character, Lin Xiaoxiao would definitely be tortured to extract a confession.
After seeing the two of them leave, Lin Xiaoxiao hit Yan Lang's right lower abdomen with his back elbow, causing Yan Lang to snort, "You are definitely murdering your husband." β
"You and I are neither related by blood, nor are we husband and wife, how can we talk about husbands?" Lin Xiaoxiao said as a matter of course.
"Are you confessing that I want to marry you quickly?" Yan Lang put his hands on Lin Xiaoxiao's shoulders, not giving her a chance to dodge at all, and Lin Xiaoxiao could feel the heat of his palms coming from his shoulders.
"Mr. Yan, where is your car parked? Don't go to my house to pick up something? Lin Xiaoxiao really didn't know what to say about Yan Lang's escape at this time. She knew that he had many faces, but no matter which one she was overwhelmed.
Yan Lang looked at the nervous and restrained woman in front of him softly, his lips couldn't help but smile, and he didn't ask any more questions, but naturally hung his arm on Lin Xiaoxiao's shoulder, and said very aggrievedly, "I'm injured, look!" Yan Lang lifted the corner of his shirt, and blood was faintly oozing from the gauze on his lower right abdomen......
"No, you're going to have to go to the hospital." Lin Xiaoxiao was a little flustered.
"Where is my car, will I drive?" Yan Lang asked.
"I have an International Driver's Permit." Lin Xiaoxiao replied a little complacently.
"You drive, go to your house." Looking at Lin Xiaoxiao, who was silent, Yan Lang looked at the reluctant Lin Xiaoxiao and said, "Isn't it okay to provide paid services?" β
"It's not about the money." Lin Xiaoxiao didn't understand why Yan Lang was so stubborn, but in the end, she had no choice but to accept her fate and bring this master back to her home again.
