Chapter 364: Obscure Rules
Lu Tingshen went downstairs after finishing talking to Ji Yan, but when he was about to leave, he just bumped into Lu Mu, who came to intercept him.
"I don't know what you've been busy with all this time, you don't even have time to eat with us." She shook the car keys in her hand, "But you can't go anywhere today, stay here and have dinner with us first." ”
Anyway, the car key was also detained, unless he left on foot or temporarily called someone to pick him up, but Lu Tingshen was not a person who would trouble others during the New Year, he couldn't do this kind of thing.
The cold face in front of Ji Yan collapsed when he changed to Lu Mu, he rubbed his temples helplessly, and said in a tired tone, "Mom, you don't care about these things." ”
"I know what you want to say to me, it's nothing more than disgusting me for having a lot of things to control you when I'm old, but I won't interfere with your relationship with Yan'er in the future, it's a matter for the two of you."
Since the two of them got married, every time there is something wrong with the relationship between them or there is a little bit of trouble, she will jump out at this time to solve the problem, like an almighty Doraemon. But now this "Doraemon" says so, which is really surprising.
Lu's mother saw the surprised gaze he cast, and she felt a little lost in her heart, but she didn't expect that things were really as he said, and her concern for the children turned into a heavy burden, and it was no longer love.
But it won't be a problem now, she coughed and explained, "I can see that there seems to be some minor friction between you, and there are a lot of things like this going through between husband and wife, and I can't focus on you and nothing else." I don't have any other requirements, just sit down and have a meal together. ”
She had already said it to such an extent, Lu Tingshen couldn't refuse again, so she nodded and agreed.
Seeing that he agreed to Lu's mother, she breathed a sigh of relief and returned the car keys to him, "Okay, then you sit here now, and I'll cook." ”
After the hot meal was ready, Ji Yan had already cleaned up, and she spent some time trying to calm her emotions, but who knew that when she was ready to cook, she found that their meals had already been prepared, and she suddenly felt that she was a little redundant.
"Smoke is coming?" She saw Ji Yan's confused and helpless appearance standing at the top of the stairs, so she opened her mouth and called her, "Hurry up, I'm going to prepare for dinner!" ”
Five minutes had passed by the time the four of them sat down at the table to start eating, and they didn't move their chopsticks immediately, but said a few symbolic words.
Father Lu glanced back and forth at the two of them meaningfully, "Husband and wife are bedside fights and bedside fighting, as long as your hearts are together, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome." ”
"Don't be nervous, we don't mean to blame you." Mother Lu comforted them, "The Chinese New Year is a rare day for everyone to get together in a year, so I hope you will try to eat with us on the same stage." This side is a day less than a day, you can't come back to make up for these later, right? ”
After they finished speaking, everyone finished their meal in a strange but faint warm atmosphere, although both parties were a little unate.
They deliberately delayed their meal time this time, they didn't finish a small bowl of rice for half a day, and they kept looking for various topics to talk about, but most of the time they were talking, and Ji Yan occasionally echoed a sentence or two.
Lu Tingshen raised his eyes and looked at the time on his watch, and a touch of helplessness flashed in his eyes, "The time spent on this meal is enough for me to investigate a lot of things." ”
"Don't talk about business at the dinner table, this is a rule that the Lu family has always had. I think you've forgotten all about it? ”
The scene began to get awkward for a while.
Except for Ji Yan, they all knew very well what Lu Tingshen was investigating, but he still had to block people with business.
If things have developed to this point, Ji Yan can't see it, then there is really something wrong with his eyes.
She put down the rice bowl that she had picked up for a while but did not reduce half a point, and said calmly, "He usually has a lot of things to do, and it is understandable that he has no time." ”
With Ji Yan's help to speak, Lu's father and Lu's mother did not continue to hold on to him, but turned a blind eye and let people go.
After the others left, Lu Mu looked at her with hatred, "You have made a lot of unpleasant trouble recently, so you don't worry about it?" I saw the documents and knew what you were hiding from us. If that's why you're talking to him or trying to hide something, there's no need for that. ”
Even if they didn't say it, Ji Yan really didn't mean to help hide it. There is no other reason, Lu Tingshen can solve these things alone, and if she stirs up the situation in the middle, it will make the situation very unstable, and there is no meaning.
"I'm going out to talk to my friends in a moment, so I might have to leave for a while." Ji Yan didn't answer their questions directly, put down his things and ran upstairs.
Mother Lu looked at the bowl in front of her that hadn't moved much, and sighed with a headache, "I don't know if I owed the two of them in my previous life, so I have to worry about their affairs in this life." ”
"Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, there is always a heart that you can't finish, let them go by themselves."
Ji Yan changed her clothes and took her things and picked up an ordinary little jeep from the Lujia warehouse on the road, she took the driver's license, but the Lu family travel is generally picked up by the driver, so she rarely drove her own car, but she didn't expect that the first time she drove after the license would be in this case.
By the fourth and fifth days of the Lunar New Year, some figures could be seen on the road gradually, not as deserted as a few days ago, and no one could be seen.
After arriving at the agreed place, she parked the car outside, reported the room number to the front desk according to the room number said by the person, and someone led her to a private room on the third floor.
Pushing open the door, before the antique decoration room could catch people's eyes, there was a faint smell of hot pot wafting out.
Ji Yan's belly script on the way here was all washed away by such a sudden taste, and he said in a gloomy tone, "Why do you want to make an appointment at a hot pot restaurant?" ”
They made an appointment this time to talk about things, and making an appointment in this kind of place is obviously not so conducive to talking about things, maybe the two of them will turn to an unknown place when they talk about it.
The person sitting in one of the seats lifted his glasses and said seriously, "I think a good conversation needs to be set by the atmosphere, and the brain stops spinning when you're hungry, which is not good for what we need to say next." ”
Ji Yan reluctantly accepted his statement, put the bag aside, and took out the prepared USB flash drive inside, "This is the information I found recently, I'm not sure if the things in this are true or false, so I just took the opportunity to let you check the authenticity of this meeting." ”
The man stretched out his hand to take it, took out the computer in the briefcase and plugged it directly into the USB flash drive to check the information, and said leisurely while looking at it, "I have tried my best to help you investigate the things you want to investigate, but the problems involved in this are very extensive." Even if I find out, I won't be able to tell you everything, so it's up to you to guess most of the content. ”
There were already enough ingredients on the edge of the table, and the hot pot was boiling with a spicy red color, and the fragrance came to their nostrils, but they all ignored the food in front of them and concentrated on their work.
Ji Yan had called another person before, and the answer given there was almost the same as his, so his face was still light, "Mit, I have something I want to know." What you do is information research, are there some things that although they are not said bluntly, but everyone knows that there is such a rule? ”
Mitter, he was the one who helped investigate Lin Xiao's matter before, but then he received a temporary notice and left in a hurry, and he only came back recently.
Mitt turned on the speed to read the information with a high probability, then turned off the computer and returned the USB flash drive to her, "The things in this are basically true, and some of the contents can't be considered fake, but the authenticity is slightly deviated, but it won't prevent you from using it." ”
After a pause, he said with a smile, "We do have a relatively obscure rule in this industry, and some things that will cause a big sensation when exposed cannot be revealed even if we can easily find out, but it is okay to say a word or two symbolically." After all, not everyone's brain is running all the time, and they may not guess the point. ”
At this time, the waiter suddenly pushed the door open, and then slowly pushed a small cart up, and put the ingredients and wine on the table before going down.
Ji Yan looked at the pile of things in front of him a little helplessly, "How much did you order?" ”
"Since everything I ordered has been delivered, let's finish eating it first, right?" He took a pair of long chopsticks and put down a few pieces of tripe and cabbage, staring at them very seriously, "I know you'd like to know the information about the design competition, but you'd better not forget what I just said, it's not fooling you." ”
Ji Yan heard the meaning of his words, his face turned a little pale, and his hands under the table were tightly clasped together, "If I can't get this news, then what's the point of me coming here today?" ”
The hot pot is gurgling, and after a while, the cooked meat is shallowly floating up, and there is a very tempting pale pink on the surface, coupled with the small oil dish that has been prepared for a long time, the fragrance can be fragrant for five miles.
"You don't have to look at success or failure before you do something, sometimes you can relax and deal with it, and it may have a surprising effect." He put the cooked food into the bowl and put a lot of dishes in one go.
But before the matter got an exact content, she couldn't eat even the delicacies of the mountains and seas.
Mitt came here this time not only to help her, but also to find out her safety, of course, it was impossible to watch her sit here with a sad face, and slap the note that had been prepared long ago on the table.
"Since you're here, there's no way I'm going to let you suffer!"
