Chapter 28: You Are Mine
Also coming to pick up the airport were the staff of Huayi's UK branch, who quickly got the check-in process and the luggage was sent to the room. Lu Chenhuan ordered the others to leave, while he and Chu Shengge were taken upstairs by the waiter.
Lu Chenhuan booked a presidential suite, the interior is very luxurious, the whole set of neoclassical style antique furniture and fireplace make the whole space look like an 18th-century aristocratic castle. The suite comes with two bedrooms, a study, a living room, a dining room, a kitchen, a gym and a small sky garden. The crystal candle chandelier hanging from the ceiling of the living room is a priceless work of art.
Chu Shengge dragged her luggage into the guest room, which was slightly smaller than the master bedroom, and she liked this room very much. The furniture in the room is all white, with simple and graceful patterns outlined with gold threads. In particular, the dressing table placed next to the bed is slender and elegant with three mirrors. With silver draperies around the beautiful four-poster bed and French embroidered linens in lotus roots, this room resembles a fairytale princess's bedroom.
Chu Shengge first hung the clothes he brought into the closet, and then went to the bathroom to take a comfortable hot bath. Chu Shengge sat in front of the dresser and wiped his wet hair, and Lu Chenhuan pushed the door in.
When Lu Chenhuan saw Chu Shengge, a pair of deep eyes were even darker, the girl who had just bathed was wearing a conservative cotton nightdress, and the bright color of goose yellow made Chu Shengge's skin blow and break. Her long hair hung down on the sides of her cheeks, and her palm-sized little face looked even more delicate. There were still a few crystal droplets hanging on the supple fever, making Chu Shengge look like a mermaid princess who had just surfaced, with a little hope and innocence.
Chu Shengge admitted that she was attracted to this beautiful room, so she went to take a shower without locking the door. But Lu Chenhuan is highly educated and has a good tutor, so he doesn't have to knock on other people's rooms when he enters them?
"Don't you knock when you enter someone else's room?" Chu Shengge was about to go crazy, but his tone was quite polite.
"Are you someone else?" The corners of Lu Chenhuan's lips hooked a cynical smile, "Come out for dinner." ”
Chu Shengge really wanted to catch Lu Chenhuan and slap him twice, of course she was someone else, she was his assistant, yes, but she always had her own privacy. It's rude to go into someone else's room like this, okay!
"You are my ......" Lu Chenhuan said "mine" extraordinarily, and then spit out two fluttering words, "Assistant ......"
When Chu Shengge came out of the room, he had already changed into a dress. Although her nightdress is conservative, her education from a young age prevents her from dangling in front of others in her pajamas.
The long dining table was covered with a cream-colored tablecloth, and in the center of the table was a golden five-headed candlestick, a dazzling flame dancing. The menorah is surrounded by a large bouquet of pink stars, and a few delicate margarita roses are dotted with them. Today's main course was served on a large silver plate – soft fried fish with black pepper sauce, thyme roast beef, french fries, mushroom soup...... There is a wide variety of dishes, and there are a few desserts, mostly very traditional British cuisine, and a few improved dishes.
Chu Shengge looked at the sumptuous dinner, chose the Spanish-style seafood risotto closest to him, and ate it silently.
"Don't like British food?" Chu Shengge has studied in the UK for so long, he should be used to the food here.
"It's fine." Chu Shengge Chu Shengge doesn't like or hate Western food, in fact, there is a kitchen here, and if she can, she would rather make a fried rice or cook a bowl of noodles by herself. But as an assistant, she knows what she has to do. She's here for work, not for vacation, she's not a hypocritical person. Besides, a lot of money was spent on this table of dishes, and it was a shame to waste it.
Lu Chenhuan frowned slightly, he had never bothered to study what a woman liked before, and in his impression, the things that women like were very simple, either beautiful or shiny - the latest dresses, jewelry designed by famous designers, and all kinds of bottles and jars of cosmetics...... As for the food, it is even simpler, just choose a high-end western restaurant. But Chu Shengge is different, no matter what she is given, it is faint. Ask her if she likes it and always answer with "okay", and nothing seems to shine in her eyes.
"Tomorrow morning, you will attend the planning meeting of the second phase of cooperation on my behalf, and then make a summary of the meeting for me." Lu Chenhuan cut the roast beef in front of him into even and neat pieces.
"Okay, Mr. Lu." Chu Shengge felt that Lu Chenhuan would definitely kill with a knife to kill someone, and the knife was too accurate, "But...... Is it appropriate for me to go? "Chu Shengge has seen the itinerary, tomorrow's meeting is very important, the Bank of England should be attended by high-level executives, is it appropriate for her, the assistant to the president, to attend on their side?
"You think there's something wrong with my decision-making?" Lu Chenhuan raised his eyebrows.
"No ......" Chu Shengge rolled her eyes countless times in her heart, she didn't think there was a problem, but she felt that it was very problematic. However, Lu Chenhuan is the big boss, and she is the little assistant. She just did what he said. Chu Shengge thought viciously, anyway, the cooperation was not going well, and it was not her money that was lost.
Early the next morning, Chu Shengge deliberately chose a more solemn-looking black skirt and tied a small printed square scarf around his neck. The hair was also tied up and combed into a bun. Chu Shengge knew that wearing makeup abroad was a basic etiquette, so he chose a dark coffee eyebrow powder and a pale pink lipstick to apply it. Chu Shengge looked in the mirror - a professional suit of a first-line brand, holding a limited-edition handbag in his hand, this shouldn't make the other party feel rude, right?
Chu Shengge walked out of the room, Lu Chenhuan just came out of the gym, he should have just finished exercising, and took off the T-shirt on his upper body. Chu Shengge held her forehead, she admitted that Lu Chenhuan's figure was very good, but this was the living room, can't she go back to the room and take off her clothes?
Lu Chenhuan didn't mean to evade it at all, and said lightly, "Let the housekeeper bring the breakfast." ”
"Okay." Chu Shengge grinded her teeth, and she kept using it - this was Lu Chenhuan's territory, and it was his freedom to change his clothes wherever he wanted. After brainwashing myself five times, I finally calmed down my temper.
The presidential suites are equipped with special butlers, and Chu Shengge ordered breakfast yesterday, so the breakfast was delivered quickly.
Lu Chenhuan changed his clothes for going out, sat upright in the middle of the dining table, and flipped through today's morning newspaper in his hand. The waiter laid out the breakfast, and the neatly dressed white-gloved butler introduced them to the day's breakfast, standard British English with a bit of toughness, "Sir, do you want milk, black coffee, or juice?" ”
"Coffee." Lu Chenhuan didn't even raise his head.
The housekeeper chose a bone china mug, picked up the coffee pot and poured a cup of coffee and put it in front of Lu Chenhuan, "Sir, your coffee." Then he turned his head to Chu Shengge, "Miss, what about you?" ”
"Juice, thank you."
The butler poured the juice into the long crystal juice cup and placed it in front of Chu Shengge, "This is the freshly squeezed juice of passion fruit, pineapple, and sweet orange. ”
Lu Chenhuan waved his hand at the housekeeper, "That's fine, you go down." ”
"I wish you a pleasant meal, Mr. and Miss." The butler bowed before exiting the restaurant.
Lu Chenhuan smeared black caviar on the crunchy toast with a jam knife: "The driver will come to pick you up in a while, and the planning manager of the branch will accompany you to the meeting, you can just go there and sit, don't worry." ”
"Oh." Chu Shengge put an egg cake on his plate, as well as a piece of grapefruit and a few slices of peaches. It's really funny, what does she have to worry about, it's Lu Chenhuan who should be worried. With such a large cooperation project, if it is messed up, the loss will definitely not be small.
At nine o'clock, Chu Shengge, accompanied by the planning manager, went to the Bank of England for a meeting, and Lu Chenhuan drove to the place where he temporarily decided to go yesterday.
Rodin Girls' School is located in the south-east, east of the coastal city of Brighton, with a pleasant climate and an elegant environment. It's a little over an hour's drive from London. After presenting the letter of introduction from the school director, Lu Chenhuan was allowed to retrieve Chu Shengge's files from the archives during his time at the school.
Chu Shengge's student file is obviously much richer than the form she filled out when she joined the company. The photo in the school book should have been taken five or six years ago, and the childishness on Chu Shengge's face at that time was still obvious, his smile was also bright, and his beautiful eyes seemed to be shining with starlight.
Lu Chenhuan's eyes saw in the family members column, Chu Shengge's father...... It's Chu Zheng. Although Lu Chenhuan rarely returned to China in the past, in Jiangcheng, Chu Zheng and the Nanfeng Group he established with the real estate industry as the pillar were still very prestigious.
He remembered that he once asked Chu Shengge why he didn't continue to study abroad, and the answer Chu Shengge gave was - personal reasons. Calculating the time, Chu Shengge's failure to study abroad should have a lot to do with the changes that occurred in Chu Zheng's death and Nanfeng Group. Couldn't the property left by Chu Zheng even afford the cost of Chu Shengge's study abroad? And Chu Shengge's current life status is not like a rich lady, which is very strange.
Lu Chenhuan turned a few more pages back, Chu Shengge was a full honor student, and he won a scholarship every year during his time in school. In her sophomore year of high school, she also won a silver medal at the Varna International Ballet Competition, which Chu Shengge generously gifted to the school in the most influential ballet competition in the world, and now lists the medal in the Hall of Honor and Trophy in the school's history museum.
The file is also accompanied by a photo of Chu Shengge dancing ballet. Chu Shengge was wearing a white dance skirt and a feather headdress on his head. She stood on one foot in the center of the stage, her arms outstretched......
Before seeing this file, Lu Chenhuan felt that Chu Shengge should have received physical training, if it was to be described as an animal, the swan with arrogance and elegance was undoubtedly the most suitable.
Chu Shengge feels like an elf wrapped in a mist. Lu Chenhuan put the file in the file bag, even if she was a difficult puzzle, he would definitely be able to solve it as long as he was interested.
When Lu Chenhuan returned, the highway was temporarily closed due to a traffic accident, so he had to take a detour, and it was already two o'clock in the afternoon when he returned to the hotel.
Lu Chenhuan walked into the room, where there was a crackling sound of cooking food in the kitchen. He froze for a moment and walked over there. I saw Chu Shengge put an apron in front of him, added a little salt to the pot, stirred it with a soup spoon a few times, and turned off the fire. I took a plate from the side and put the finished scrambled eggs with tomatoes into it.
