The Canary's Trap

When Lu Ling left the rest room, he saw Gu Guanyan sitting at the bar holding a wine glass, smiling at him with playful eyes.

Lu Ling felt a little uncomfortable all over, and waved at him in embarrassment.Lu Ling knew that Gu Guanyan had thoughts about him at first, so he was very defensive towards him.

But later, the man treated him politely and took care of him, and instead treated him more like an elder brother at home. Lu Ling was not very experienced in the world, so he felt that he was only interested in him on a whim, and the interest was gone. Fortify him as before.

But at this moment, he felt that Gu Guanyan's eyes were starting to look naked again, which was unavoidably awkward.

Looking up again, Xiao Yuan was also standing at the bar, and shouted to him with a smile: "Hello, little classmate, long time no see."

Lu Ling smiled slightly, and walked to the bar to meet Gu Guanyan's gaze: "Long time no see, Brother Xiao Yuan."

Gu Guanyan looked directly at him: "Lu Ling, good evening."

"Good evening." Lu Ling quietly avoided his slightly sticky eyes.

Xiao Yuan narrowed his eyes, scanned the two people back and forth, and asked bluntly, "Lu Ling, your friend?"

"Well, friend." Gu Guanyan answered first, with a relaxed and natural tone. After hearing this, Lu Ling wondered if he was thinking too much.

Where does his charm come from, people have such and such thoughts about him every day, if he really wants to be seen by others, Shen Yuchuan will not be so indifferent to him.

Anyway, Gu Guanyan helped him a lot, and he invited him back for a few meals, which was pretty standard, and he was considered a friend.

Thinking of this, he smiled apologetically at Gu Guanyan, and sat down beside him with a relaxed expression. Gu Guanyan turned his head away and stopped fixing his eyes on him.

It didn't take too long, Shen Yuchuan not only walked out from which private room, but followed behind a few middle-aged men with big arms and round waists, their expressions were hidden in it, and it was hard to see joy and sorrow. When the group walked to the gate of the bar, those few A man turned around and shook hands with Shen Yuchuan, Shen Yuchuan had a faint smile on his face, his thin lips opened and closed, he didn't know what he said to them, it was probably a small talk in the business field.

Lu Ling stared straight at him, and felt that Shen Yuchuan was a little different from usual when he was working. He was restrained and stable, with a little more charm of a mature man.

As if sensing Lu Ling's naked eyes, Shen Yuchuan suddenly raised his head to look at him, his eyes were too dark to find a trace of light.

It seems that every time Shen Yuchuan just looked at him, all the tenderness and stability turned into snow in December and returned to the severe cold.

"Where did I offend him..." Lu Ling sniffled and muttered a little aggrieved.

But Gu Guanyan who was on the side listened: "Lu Ling, what, who did you offend?"

Lu Ling lowered his head to look at the tray in his hand.

"Someone bullied you?" Gu Guanyan said angrily.

Lu Ling hurriedly replied: "No, no one bullied me." After speaking, he walked around to the bar, wanting to take the opportunity to learn a craft from Xiao Yuan.

Xiao Yuan raised his chin, and took out a golden bar spoon from a pile of utensils: "Little classmate, today I will teach you how to make long-drink cocktails, and mix them directly. It is relatively simple and easy to operate. Come and try."

Lu Ling nodded, and took a few steps towards him with great interest. Xiao Yuan played with the delicate golden spoon in his hand, lowered his body, and leaned into his ear and said, "Lu Ling, the man in front of you doesn't look very clean at you. Judging from my many years of wandering around the flowers, he has impure motives for you, he must have been staring at you before, anyhow," Xiao Yuan said in a rare serious tone, "Be careful."

Lu Ling's expression changed slightly, and he gave a silent "um".

Xiao Yuan is not a person who pays too much attention to these details, these are what Shen Yuchuan asked him to pay attention to.During the period when Shen Yuchuan was busy cooperating, every time he came to the bar, he would intentionally or unintentionally ask himself to see if there was any suspicious person around Lu Ling, but Gu Guanyan was not so explicit at that time, so he was not too blatant. Seriously.

Instead, he kept beating drums in his heart, why did a cold-hearted person like Shen Yuchuan notice these details, unless he had been paying attention to Lu Ling...

Paying attention to a person he refused to admit to knowing, Xiao Yuan smiled, that was really interesting.

In the following time, Lu Ling seriously followed Xiao Yuanxue in bartending, and Gu Guanyan watched with interest.

Shen Yuchuan exchanged a glance with Gu Guanyan from afar, then turned and left the bar.

Lu Ling stirred the cocktail in the glass with a thin-handled bar spoon, and looked in Shen Yuchuan's direction from time to time. When he saw him leave, his heart was empty, and he couldn't help asking Xiao Yuan: "Brother Shen, why did he leave?"

Xiao Yuan replied casually: "Oh, I should have gone to be cool with those rich locals. This project requires a lot of funds, and Shen Yuchuan doesn't know how much headache it is."

Chic?Lu Ling felt sour first, and the rest was worried about Shen Yuchuan, his small faces were tightly wrinkled together, Xiao Yuan looked at him, and suddenly smiled: "Why, little classmate, you are very worried about him. Worry about it."

Lu Ling categorically denied it, and the bar spoon in his hand fell to the table with a "clack". Gu Guanyan glanced at him thoughtfully.

Xiao Yuan didn't stay for too long, he called Shen Yuchuan to inquire about the progress of the contract, and the other party answered that they were almost in agreement, and asked him to follow up.

Xiao Yuan cut off the phone, glanced at Lu Ling and Gu Guanyan respectively, said hello and left the bar.When picking up the car, he was still not at ease, so he sent a message to Lu Ling, telling him to go home after get off work and not to have any contact with Gu Guanyan alone.

Lu Ling was well-behaved, and immediately replied with a "received" emoji.

Xiao Yuan came to a magnificent entertainment club, and before he got to the private room, he saw Shen Yuchuan frowning and opened the door, and strode towards him. Socializing, he cleared his throat: "How about it, can you still resist?"

Shen Yuchuan has a very good capacity for alcohol. He used to work in bars in the United States. He has excellent bartending skills, and his capacity for alcohol and wine quality are not a problem. Most of the small company they cooperated with can achieve their current scale because of Shen Yuchuan Baijiu. out of the can.

"I'm okay." His expression looked relaxed as always, and his face was considered calm.

Xiao Yuan stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder, and sighed softly: "Yu Chuan, you don't need to be so tight, the burden on your shoulders is too heavy, don't crush yourself first."

Shen Yuchuan glanced at him, his eyes were gloomy, and after a while, he replied hoarsely: "No." At the end, he added: "If the progress is not made faster, I'm afraid I won't be able to have a good sleep."

Xiao Yuan was taken aback: "Why, are you still insomnia?"

This time, Shen Yuchuan didn't answer, but just cut the topic naturally: "You should pay more attention inside."

He didn't want to say it, but Xiao Yuan knew it was useless to ask, so he nodded: "Well, I see, you should go back and rest early, leave it to me, you can rest assured."

Shen Yuchuan thanked him, turned around and wanted to leave, Xiao Yuan seemed to think of something, and suddenly said to his back: "Yu Chuan, that—"

"It's Lu Ling, that kid. Today, there's a man by his side. He doesn't seem to have any good intentions at first glance, but I reminded him."

Xiao Yuan didn't know why he wanted to tell Shen Yuchuan these things, but he subconsciously felt that Lu Ling seemed to be different to him.

He and Shen Yuchuan's company was registered a year ago. It is true that Shen Yuchuan returned to China to develop the company, but before that, he still focused on the postgraduate entrance examination. For some reason, he suddenly became eager for success. All thoughts and energy are diverted to the company.
