"No." After answering Xia Ju's question in seconds, Sheng Lezhan asked, "Is the dish ready?"

Xia Ju felt a little uncomfortable.

She came to see him after dressing up specially today, but he didn't even look at himself, nor did he praise her.

He didn't even pay attention to what she said, it really changed a lot from before.

Seeing that Xia Ju didn't answer, Sheng Lezhan frowned, "Xia Ju? Have you ordered?"

Xia Ju didn't make a sound.

The waiter felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, and handed the menu to Sheng Lezhan, "Sir, this lady just said that I would like you to order."

Sheng Lezhan was a little surprised, looked at Xia Ju again, didn't say anything, took the menu and began to order.

Regardless of the main meal or dessert, they are all ordered according to the taste of Xiaju.

After ordering, Sheng Lezhan returned the menu to the waiter and looked at Xia Ju again, "You asked me out today, what's the matter?"

His tone was flat, as if he was talking to an ordinary friend.

Xia Ju's heart became cold again, and she couldn't even smile, "It's nothing, I just thought we haven't seen each other for a long time, so we have a meal together."

After a pause, she asked again: "You returned to the capital this year, much earlier than usual?"

"Well, there are some things at home that I have to come back to deal with." Sheng Lezhan replied.

As soon as she heard that there was something wrong with Sheng Lezhan's family, Xia Ju immediately became nervous, "What's the matter? Is it serious? Is it resolved now?"

Sheng Lezhan once again looked at Xia Ju in surprise.

I always feel that Xia Ju tonight is a bit different from usual.

He felt uneasy, so he didn't bother to answer Xia Ju's question, so he asked, "What happened?"

Because of worry, his voice was a little anxious.

But such a tone changed in Xia Ju's ears.

To actually talk to her in such an urgent tone, does it mean that you are impatient?

They had only just met, and he was already so impatient.

Sure enough, people change, but she was too slow to react, so Sheng Lezhan didn't treat her like before.

But this is what it should be, and she can't ask Sheng Lezhan to stay by her side all the time, what if she can't react for the rest of her life?Do you want others to wait for her forever?
With a dry smile, Xia Ju replied: "It's nothing, just a simple meal."

Seeing that Xia Ju didn't want to say anything, Sheng Lezhan didn't ask any more questions.

He thought, when Xia Ju wants to talk, she will naturally tell him. If he asks too much, Xia Ju will feel annoyed instead.

And he has a lot to worry about now.

The meal was eaten in silence, hardly anyone spoke.

Until it was almost the end, Xia Ju felt that she had come out after a while, and if she just went back like this, she seemed a little unwilling.

She summoned up her courage and finally asked, "Sheng Lezhan, what kind of girl do you like?"

Sheng Lezhan was drinking soup, she asked a little suddenly, he was completely unprepared.

Putting down the spoon and wiping the corners of his mouth with a napkin, Sheng Lezhan glanced at Xia Ju, only to find that Xia Ju was also looking at him, and quickly lowered his eyes again, "I don't know, I never thought about it."

Xia Ju pursed her lips tightly.

Didn't even think about it... didn't even think about it.

It seems that Qiao Nuo really got it wrong, Sheng Lezhan never liked her.

Otherwise, even if you don't directly say you like her like that, you will say something about her, right?

But he answered so perfunctorily, as if he wanted to leave immediately.

Xia Ju gave a wry smile, blaming herself for being too stupid.

Hearing Xia Ju's laughter, Sheng Lezhan asked, "That's pretty good, why did you remember to ask me this?"

"It's nothing, just ask casually." Xia Ju wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin, and stood up from the chair, "I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first, and this meal should be your New Year's gift to me."

Turning around and about to leave, Xia Ju suddenly thought of something, she stood still, "By the way, Happy New Year."

Sheng Lezhan wanted to reply "Happy New Year", but before he could pronounce it, Xia Ju had already started walking.

The girl was wearing a white shirt, black high-waist trousers, ten-centimeter high heels, a bag on her left shoulder, a down jacket on her arm, and short hair that looked like a working queen.

He noticed it at the beginning, and wanted to take a second look, but was afraid that he would lose control.

Everyone is not young. Since many things have not been determined yet, it is best not to delay anyone. One is different from the other. This is the best choice.

Sheng Lezhan laughed, picked up the cup, touched the cup on Xia Ju's seat, and showed a warm smile towards the void, "Happy New Year, little orange."

Then he raised his neck and poured half a glass of water into his stomach.

It was past eight o'clock when I got home. As soon as Sheng Lezhan entered the living room, he saw his father sitting on the sofa in the middle of the living room.

He really wanted to turn a blind eye, but his childhood upbringing didn't allow him to do so. In the end, he could only go in front of Sheng's father, and said respectfully, "Dad."

Father Sheng looked up at him, "Are you back? Where did you go?"

"I went to dinner with a friend." After answering Sheng's father's question, Sheng Lezhan turned his toes in the other direction, "Dad, if I have nothing to do, I'll go back to my room first."

However, before he even raised his feet, Father Sheng said, "Le Zhan, what have you thought about what I told you?"

Sheng Lezhan stood where he was, motionless and silent.

Father Sheng sighed, stood up from the sofa, and looked at Sheng Lezhan, "I only have a son like you, and all my expectations rest on you. I can only let you do this."

Even though he knew he couldn't resist, Sheng Lezhan said stubbornly, "Dad, I don't want to go."

His voice was actually very soft, but to Father Sheng, it was still like a heavy hammer, causing Father Sheng's brows to frown, "I don't want to go, I don't want to go, I've been telling you about this for a few months, You've always said this. I just asked you to study abroad for two years, and I didn't ask you to do something that is unreasonable. What do you not want?"

"dad……"

"Don't talk about it. You are the only heir to the Sheng family. If you don't go, with your current ability, do you think you can manage the entire Sheng family in the future?" Sitting heavily on the chair, Father Sheng said again: "Forget it, if you really don't want to go, then I'll sell the company after the New Year, and then you can do whatever you want!"

He said this completely like a child who was angry.

Sheng Lezhan frowned deeply, Xia Ju's face kept appearing in his mind.

She dressed up to meet him and asked him what kind of girl he likes.

He could more or less guess what she meant.

If he leaves now, can she wait for him for two years?It shouldn't be possible, right?After all, no one is obliged to wait for anyone.

But the Sheng family is the property that my father left behind after working hard all his life. If he really gave up like this, then his father would definitely be unwilling and feel very uncomfortable.

He felt very embarrassed.

Father Sheng lowered his head, looked at his son's shadow on the floor, and said slowly, "Le Zhan, it's not that I want to force you, you are old enough to be sensible, don't be so self-willed like before. How many jobs are children in our family carrying on their backs? I can't afford to be self-willed."

……

It was the first time for Qiao Nuo to celebrate the New Year in the capital. Although he didn't go out to visit relatives because he was pregnant, the old man still invited many relatives to his house and solemnly introduced Qiao Nuo to them.

Because of this, Lu Yunzheng was once again envied by a large group of people.

Having a smart son at such a young age, not only found true love, but also had a second child with twins, it is gratifying to say the least.

Listening to relatives' blessings, even though Lu Yunzheng usually had a cold and indifferent attitude no matter what the situation, this time he couldn't restrain himself anymore, the corners of his mouth almost pulled behind his ears, very flamboyant.

As soon as the new year was over, Lu Yunzheng returned to his intense work, the sprain on Secretary Wang's foot healed completely, and Zhou Yun also returned to the company.

During the Chinese New Year, Lu Yunzheng was not idle either. He had already drawn up a plan to suppress the Tang family, and it happened to be implemented now.

His plan went well, and within half a month, the Tang family couldn't hold on anymore.

Originally, this year the Tang family lived in fear. Tang Fenghua wanted to take advantage of the Chinese New Year to find some clients, but he couldn't find any. A new round of offensive.

He felt that he was going to be unable to hold on any longer, and he was so anxious and angry that he smashed half of the study room by cursing.

Seeing Tang Fenghua like this, Mrs. Tang was also anxious, but she couldn't help, so she was even more anxious.

After thinking about it, Mrs. Tang still didn't want to see Lu Yunzheng proud, so she went to Lu's alone.

The last time Tang Shiyi came to the Lu family, Secretary Wang fell and was injured. Since then, Lu Yunzheng has issued an order not to allow people from the Tang family to enter the Lu family. Because of this, the security guards at the gate on the first floor are not allowed to enter the Lu family. He didn't dare to let Mrs. Tang in, so he stopped her at the door.

At first, Mrs. Tang would say a few good things, but no matter what she said, the other party would not let her in. Then she got anxious, took a step back, pointed at the security guard and cursed: "I said, what are you proud of? You know Who am I? I'm Tang Shiyi's own mother! Do you know who Tang Shiyi is? Tang Shiyi is the young wife of your Lu family, how dare you not let me in?!"

The two security guards looked at each other and laughed, "Mrs. Tang, I'm afraid you made a mistake. Our young lady's surname is Qiao, not Tang."

Another security guard also said: "Mrs. Tang, you'd better go back, don't embarrass yourself here."

Mrs. Tang's eyes widened suddenly, "Disgraceful? Are you saying I'm ashamed?"

Maybe because she was angry, her voice was much higher than before: "What is Qiao Nuo? She only entered the Lu family's house because she was pregnant with a child! Do you think Lu Yunzheng really likes it?" Her? Let me tell you, you are all mistaken, Lu Yunzheng doesn't like her at all, what Lu Yunzheng likes is my daughter Tang Shiyi!"

Regardless of whether the upstairs could be seen or not, Mrs. Tang looked up at the upstairs, and continued: "Our family, Shi Yi, has been with Lu Yunzheng in the United States for so many years, isn't it just that she hasn't had a child? Why, did Lu Yunzheng fall asleep with Shi Yi?" Yi, just leave if you want to pat your ass? Where in the world is there such a cheap thing?"
