she's not at ease

"is it?"

"Then I really didn't expect that Director Lu's scope of communication is quite wide."

Luo Yao's tone was indifferent, as if saying that the moon is really round tonight.

Facing Lu Yi's rude verbal attacks, she was not annoyed at all, leaving enough time for the other party to calm down and think about her words.

On the other hand, Lu Yi actually regretted saying that.

That's not her style at all.

The verbal retaliation could not bring any substantial harm to Luo Yao except for the short-term pleasure.

All the developments tonight seemed to deviate from the normal track, and even she herself became quite impetuous.

Especially in Lu Yi's heart, Luo Yao has already been classified as an "iron scumbag". By saying this, she is putting herself in the same position as the other party.

If you think about it, it's not worth it.

Lu Yi thought about it, and felt that the best way was to leave this confined space and not stay with Luo Yao anymore, then all the conflicts would naturally be resolved.

Staying away from the scum is the best way to protect yourself.

Thinking of this, Lu Yi simply put away her phone and turned to leave, leaving no time for the people behind her to react.

"Lu Yi, where are you going!"

"Stay away from the scum."

The door of the room was closed with a "bang", leaving only a loud sound.

The elevator was not used at all during this time period, so Lu Yi went down to the first floor without any problems.

The glass door of the hotel has changed from wide open to tightly closed, and it can be seen that the rain outside has intensified again.

"Hello, please open another room." Lu Yi stretched out her arms to rest on the counter, and handed out her ID card.

But what I got was a "no vacancy" answer.

After finishing speaking, the front desk looked up at her carefully, and said in surprise, "Aren't you the guest who booked the room just now? Why did you come down to book the room again?"

"Why do you two sisters still need to open two rooms? The housing supply is very tight now, don't you know?"

The front desk refers to Luo Yao.

Lu Yi didn't like the description of "two sisters". She didn't have the time to correct it, but continued to ask: "But I just came down to buy water and heard you said there are still vacancies."

"Oh, that, it just happened that someone booked a room online because the heavy rain couldn't make it through, so they canceled it. Otherwise, the room you booked would be the last one."

The receptionist smiled, and then continued to lower his head to operate the computer, completely unaware that Lu Yi stood there for a while after listening to her words.

At this moment, Luo Yao's words "I didn't lie" echoed in her mind.

There is no room available, and it is raining heavily outside, and it is difficult to walk outside the door of this hotel.

The only option is to go back.

It was only when Lu Yi turned around that she realized that Luo Yao was standing not far behind her, and she didn't know how long she had been standing like this.

They went back to the room, and it was still the same sofa and coffee table.

"Since you showed me a photo, I'll show you a photo too." The long silence was broken by Luo Yao.

She put the phone on the coffee table, called up a photo from the album, and moved it in front of Lu Yi.

Lu Yi looked up at the other party, then slowly reached out to pick up the phone, disapproving in her heart.

She wants to see what the other party wants to show her.

The matter in the big bed room can be said to be a misunderstanding, but the person in the photo sent by Yang Mu cannot be fake-this is why Lu Yi has been tense and refused to apologize until now.

She still stubbornly felt that she was not at fault, but that it was Luo Yao who lied again and again.

However, this idea began to crumble when his eyes touched the phone screen, and shattered to the ground with Luo Yao's voice of explanation.

"I went abroad that year and have been living abroad all these years. This photo was taken with my sister before going abroad."

In the photo, two "Luo Yao" squatted together for a group photo, and there was a very well-behaved big golden retriever squatting in the middle, but the two people in the photo looked a little immature, obviously not taken in the past two years.

"Can you recognize which one is her?" At this point, Luo Yao paused before continuing, "That's your ex-girlfriend, Luo Xin."

Lu Yi's mind suddenly buzzed.

Obviously, every word the other party said was in Chinese that she was familiar with, but she couldn't understand it when they were combined and read together.

She stared at the photo for a long time, then raised her eyes to look at Luo Yao for a long time.

I didn't pay attention to it before, so I didn't pay attention to it. Now that the person concerned took the initiative to mention Lu Yi, I suddenly realized that there are indeed many differences between the Luo Yao in front of me and my ex-girlfriend.

For example, the temperament of the two of them.

For example, there are too many details revealed in the process of getting along, different handwriting and ways of dealing with people, etc., to count down.

All these things are strung together, and Lu Yi finally sorted out a piece of useful information in his messy brain——

"Are you twins?"

Even after sorting it out in her brain, she was still shocked.

So that is to say, in the photo sent by Yang Mu, the person dating the strange man is actually the real "Luo Xin", which also explains why the colleagues said that they seemed to have seen "Mr. Luo" is gone, but "Mr. Luo" is working overtime in the company's office.

Although Lu Yi still had doubts on his face, he already had the answer in his heart.

As smart as her, how could she not understand the relationship after she calmed down?

It was because he was so angry that he choked on Luo Yao directly regardless of Sanqi 21, but now...

An inexplicable sense of shame welled up from the bottom of my heart.

Lu Yi quietly glanced at Luo Yao's expression at the moment, wanting to ponder what the other person was thinking now, who would have thought that such a "secret glance" would make someone find him right.

"Lu Yi." Luo Yao stopped Lu Yi who wanted to look away, and jokingly said, "Do you still know my father?"

Lu Yi: ...

Bringing up the old story again, the words that were used to attack Luo Yao just now seem very funny when they are said in a different context.

Lu Yi couldn't help but curled up her fingertips and grabbed her pants, trying to be as calm as possible: "So you already knew about me and your sister?"

"I didn't know it at first, but I knew it later."

"It's too obvious how you target me."

On this point, Luo Yao is not lying.

Lu Yi frowned: "Then you still..."

"But Lu Yi, I never said that I am 'Luo Xin', you always think so, don't you?"

…………

While taking a bath, Lu Yi kept thinking about Luo Yao's words over and over again.

Ten minutes ago, Luo Yao told her very frankly that she already knew about the matter between her and Luo Xin. In this way, there was no reason for Lu Yi to get angry at the end.

——I knew it a long time ago, but I discovered it by myself. You didn't ask me why I took the initiative to tell you?

Lu Yi felt that there was nothing wrong with this.

If it was her herself, I'm afraid she would be "too lazy".

Although there was an element of "deliberate teasing" in it, the other party did not conceal the difference from "Luo Xin" at all.

They were obviously two people who were completely different except for their looks, but she just didn't realize it.

After much deliberation, Lu Yi felt a serious sense of frustration.

In vain, she had been fighting Luo Yaoming secretly all this time, but she completely lost to the other party in this round.

The most embarrassing thing is that she has regarded him as an "ex-girlfriend" for so long, and even once thought that he was greedy for her body.

Thinking of this, Lu Yi felt that it would be a great thing if he never saw Luo Yao again in this life.

The water in the overhead shower was turned on to the maximum, and Lu Yi raised her head slightly to accept the washing of the water.

She wanted to keep herself sober and sober. Why did things develop step by step to what they are today.

The transparent water flow is like a lover's hand outlining the woman's perfect body curve, passing through mountains, rivers and plains to the valley.

The entire bathroom was enveloped by rising water vapor, and Lu Yi seemed to be covered with a thin layer of veil in it.

wrong.

From a bunch of messy thoughts, Lu Yi managed to pick out a very important point.

——Maybe it's not a lie that Luo Yao is greedy for her.

The time spent using the bathroom this time exceeded Lu Yi's all-time record. Apart from the fact that her long hair was troublesome to wash, she also spent most of the time in a daze and thinking.

So much so that it takes five to ten minutes to stay inside.

"If you don't come out later, I might go in and see if you've passed out." Luo Yao's voice came from not far behind.

Through the mirror in front of him, Lu Yi looked at the person on the sofa behind him.

People are talking, but they are not looking in their own direction.

Before she entered the bathroom, she was nestled on the single sofa.

When he came out, he was still nestled on the single sofa.

It's just that he changed his posture, and... the sweater jacket on his body was taken off.

In this way, only a middle-neck sweater is left on Luo Yao's body.

The black knitted sweater fit the curve of the owner's body, and the lower end was stuck into the light-colored jeans and tied up with a belt. Lu Yi stood in front of the sink and raised her arms to blow dry her hair, but she never looked at the person in the mirror. Moved away.

This kind of "appreciation" continued until the hair was half-dried, until Luo Yao suddenly raised his head and looked in this direction.

Lu Yi was startled, and quickly looked away.

In order to cover up some things, she held the hair dryer and pretended to blow her hair for a while before returning to the sofa.

The first sentence after sitting down was to ask casually: "Why did you take off your sweater?"

Lu Yi's eyes once again fell on Luo Yao.

Only this time, she was aboveboard.

"It's too wet." Luo Yao picked up the gray sweater on the side of the sofa and showed it to Lu Yi, only to see dark water stains all over it.

Seeing these plaques, Lu Yi remembered that they had gone to several hotels before this hotel, and it was Luo Yao who got out of the car to ask questions.

It's raining heavily outside, and it's still drifting obliquely. It's no wonder that the clothes are not wet.

This point was once again something that Lu Yi was so negligent that he didn't notice it.

There were already too many things to shame her tonight, and now one more thing was added.

The awkward thought of "should I apologize?" went back and forth in her heart without reaching a result.

Luo Yao stretched at this time, stood up from the sofa, and threw the phone on the coffee table: "Okay, since you're out, I'll go in and take a shower."

"It's late, you can go to bed first, don't wait for me."

The person returned to his indifferent look.

Lu Yi felt that she was probably angry.

Everything that happened tonight came back to calm as the overhead lights went out.

The hotel's sound insulation is not very good. When everyone in the room rests quietly, the only thing the two of them can hear while lying on the bed is the sound of rain coming from the window.

"Tick tick tick tick tick" keeps getting into the ears, making people more awake.

Lu Yi was so full of worries in her heart that she couldn't sleep at all.

She lay on her back for a while, then turned her body sideways to adjust her posture, thinking that Luo Yao would speak to stop her after a while.

In this way, she can take the opportunity to open the topic and apologize to the other party.

Unexpectedly——

"Director Lu, what's wrong with you?"

"It's still that I'm not used to sleeping on the bed, so I toss and turn."

Luo Yao's voice came from above his head.

Lu Yi tightened her throat, her eyes fixed on the person above.

Luo Yao sat up directly, leaning halfway, with one hand on her shoulder to keep her from turning over.

Those beautiful eyes were set off by the night, which was extraordinarily deep.

People did speak to stop it.

But also started.

"I feel uncomfortable." Lu Yi avoided the two answers given by Luo Yao, and gave his own answer.

"So you just toss and turn like this, leading me to look for you."

Luo Yao's tone was a little helpless.

She pierced Lu Yi's small thoughts, but she didn't intend to get angry.

The two of them are so similar that Luo Yao can easily guess the deep meaning behind Lu Yi's every move.

Luo Yao believes that Lu Yi must have experienced this feeling in recent times.

"Yes, I don't know if you are asleep or not." Lu Yi admitted frankly, "Luo Yao..."

"Ok?"

A long voice continued to come from the top of the head, very close.

The light was not clear, and she could only vaguely see the outline of the other party, but Lu Yi knew that Luo Yao must be looking at her seriously now.

This was the first time in this period of time that Lu Yi got along with the other party so calmly, without treating the other party as "another person".

"I want to say sorry and thank you." She hesitated for a moment, but still said something she had been planning for a long time, "My attitude tonight was not very good, and what I said was very rude."

In particular, the background of all this happened was that Luo Yao kindly came to pick up his drunk self.

"Then thank you?" Luo Yao asked slowly.

"Thank you for coming to pick me up tonight."

After saying the two things hidden in her heart, Lu Yi let out a long sigh of relief.

Almost at the same time, she also felt a loosening of the strength on her shoulders. It turned out that Luo Yao let go of her hand and lay back on the side again.

The soft mattress shook slightly, and Luo Yao's voice came from the side: "Okay, I accept everything."

…………

It rained heavily all night.

Both of them were a little sleepy, almost half asleep and half awake all night, and could wake up as long as there was a little movement.

The next morning, before seven in the morning, they were woken up by loud voices coming from the corridor.

Lu Yi put on her coat and went out to have a look. It turned out that the waiters were knocking on the door one by one asking if there were any guests coming by car - the road outside the hotel was flooded with water, and even the tires of the cars parked on the side of the road were flooded.

Hearing the news, Lu Yi hurried back to the room and woke up Luo Yao who was still covered in the blanket.

"Your car!" She lifted the quilt and called out.

The two of them slept with their clothes on after taking a shower last night. Luo Yao was still wearing the knitted sweater, and he was in a daze: "What's wrong with the car?"

"Flooded."

"Oh."

The conversation between the two was surprisingly weird. Lu Yi stood beside the bed in silence for a few seconds before seeing the person slowly get up from the bed again.

"Flooded?" The expression on Luo Yao's face changed from blankness to deep doubt.

After asking, she seemed to understand something, turned over from the bed and came down to the window to check the traffic outside, Lu Yi's voice also came from behind her——

"It rained all night last night, and now the water on the road has risen to knee height and covered the wheels."

"I'm afraid it won't be long before the accumulated water will cover the body."

When Lu Yi said this, she didn't know whether Luo Yao listened to her or not.

She only saw the other party holding one hand on the not-so-clean window edge, motionless looking at the road that had been engulfed by stagnant water.

There were two figures in the stagnant water struggling to move back and forth, and the heavy rain kept falling, so the situation was not optimistic.

Finally, Luo Yao came back to his senses.

She turned around and stared straight at Lu Yi: "Where is my phone?"

Luo Yao's face suddenly became bright, full of dazzling brilliance.

"At the bedside?" Lu Yi tentatively replied.

She didn't know what made the other party change, but Luo Yao quickly walked around her and walked back to the bed.

Luo Yao got his mobile phone, and made a call very neatly.

"Xiao Liu, prepare an email to send out, informing everyone to work from home due to the weather.

……

Also, from now on, I want to control the company's working capital expenditure, and I have to go through every document that needs to be approved.

……

Ask Zhang Liang from the marketing department to prepare a new marketing plan for me, and I need it today, and notify all departments to hold a video conference at [-] pm, and no one can be absent! "

After a phone call, Luo Yao finally explained everything to the secretary.

She let out a long breath and leaned back on the sofa.

With the raised lips and curved eyes, it is not difficult to see that he is in a happy mood now.

If Lu Yi hadn't heard with her own ears that the phone call the other party just made was clear and logical, she might have thought that the person was crazy.

But even so, she didn't understand why Luo Yao was so happy.

This heavy rain has fallen so badly.

"Hey, Mr. Luo." Lu Yi reached out and tapped on the side of the coffee table, attracting people's attention, "Your car is about to be flooded, what are you happy about?"

Luo Yao really looked up at her.

The air conditioner in the room is turned on all night, so the temperature is suitable and you don't feel cold. Luo Yao doesn't seem to want to put on the sweater again, so that any movement of her body that is too large will make her body swell. Knits are taut and the bust is more defined.

This was undoubtedly fatal to Lu Yi, who was originally complicated.

Lu Yi didn't look away, waiting for Luo Yao to finish speaking.

"Lu Yi, you are in sales. You should know that even talking about a product is not as good as customers are satisfied with the product from the bottom of their hearts."

"People are willing to cooperate with you, most of the time it's not because you speak well."

"This flood, how many people do you think will suffer property damage?"

"How many insurance companies are going to face claims?"

Smart people can see the double-sidedness of things. If all the colleagues in the industry are complaining, if all preparations are made in advance, and when the disaster is over, the insurance compensation will be issued as quickly as possible, then Huayang The reputation of insurance will undoubtedly reach a new height.

No matter how gorgeous the advertisement is, it is not as good as word of mouth.

Needless to say, Luo Yao only clicked a question, and the rest of Lu Yi quickly understood: "If this is the case, those who were messed up by Luo Kunpeng before can just be saved this time!"

"That's right." Luo Yao pursed her lips and smiled lightly, and Lu Yi saw the words "Aspire to win" from her eyes, "When the time comes, Director Lu, your sales business will be smoother."

And Luo Yao himself was able to completely swell the face of his illegitimate brother with this move, and show results in front of his father.

It can be described as wonderful.

At this moment, Lu Yi felt that the woman in front of her was radiant.

Such a step of decision-making seems simple, but in fact, few people can see through it in time.

"Boss Luo is a good move to go against the current."

"Director Lu, you are not stupid, you understood my meaning so quickly."

The two women complimented each other, and the atmosphere became quite harmonious for a while.

They stared at each other with a different kind of brilliance in their eyes.

——but only temporarily.

Soon, the feeling of hunger came from their stomachs, and the two of them immediately realized what their current priority was.

No matter how big or gorgeous the pancake is painted, it will never fill your stomach.

"Tell me, is the delivery software still useful in this situation?" After a long silence, Luo Yao suddenly spoke.

She was just asking, and it was useless to think about it with her feet.

"I'll go to the front desk to see if there's anything to buy, and I'll buy some water." A few minutes later, Lu Yi picked up her coat and took the initiative to get up to take on the important task of "foraging".

This trip took about 10 minutes, and Luo Yao had already washed up when he came back.

The gray sweater was put on again, and the loose sweater covered Luo Yao's entire upper body, no trace of "body curves" could be seen anymore.

"Why are you putting on the sweater again?" Lu Yi took a extra look when she came in.

In fact, just like that is not bad.

She slandered, but didn't say it.

"Put on the clothes when they are dry," Luo Yao replied casually, focusing on the pile of things that Lu Yi carried back, "What did you buy?"

"I bought everything I could, and I don't know when I can leave."

"People in the hotel can't go out. Fortunately, there are still some stocks, but there are only instant noodles and bread, which can barely be eaten with mineral water boiled."

Lu Yi put down the things, and pulled the plastic bags out one by one.

Sure enough, they are all dry fast food.

To Luo Yao's surprise, apart from several flavors of instant noodles, there were several canned beers and a bottle of iced black tea.

She took the bottle of iced black tea and played with it in her hand.

This scene was seen by Lu Yi, and she paused when she tidied up the plastic bags: "Do you like iced tea?"

"Well, I like black tea."

Luo Yao removed the "ice" on purpose, and even took a deep look at her.

Lu Yi felt a little puzzled.

At first, Lu Yi didn't understand what this look meant, until she carried two buckets of instant noodles to the counter at the door and started boiling water for instant noodles.

While tearing off the seasoning package of instant noodles, she waited for the water in the kettle to boil.

After a certain moment of bewilderment, he understood the meaning of Luo Yao's words just now.

——The meaning of the whole sentence, I'm afraid I have to start with "black tea flavor 1" last night.

After realizing this pun, the stamina seemed to be a bit strong, Lu Yi unconsciously curled her fingertips, and pressed her lips quietly.

The steam in the kettle "buzzed" out along the spout, and the sound of boiling water "rumbling" sounded in the room.

At this moment, not only the water was boiled, but also the throbbing in her heart.

The two of them dealt with each other casually for breakfast and filled their stomachs.

Lu Yi watched as Luo Yao unscrewed the bottle of iced black tea, and drank it down until the bottle bottomed out.

For some reason, a slight strangeness slipped through her heart.

I always feel that the other party's behavior is a bit strange.

The TV in the room was turned on all morning, the volume was set to medium, and the news of the first-line rescue was playing all the time. The heavy rain stopped for about an hour at noon. When the sun was about to emerge from the dark clouds, the rain came again down.

Endless.

They learned from the Internet that the road that blocked the long queue yesterday had been submerged by the rising river, and those who persisted had to abandon their cars and flee with the rescue team.

For a moment, my heart was full of sighs and emotions.

In a blink of an eye, it was 02:30 in the afternoon. Luo Yao turned off the TV and began to prepare for the upcoming video conference.

The two cleared the coffee table, leaving a suitable place for the computer.

"What if I don't have a computer for the next meeting?" After everything was ready, Lu Yi asked her own question.

After Luo Yao asked his secretary to send the email, he called one by one to inform him that he must not be absent from the afternoon meeting. Lu Yi was the director of the sales department, so he naturally received the call.

It's just that her situation is special here, and there is no equipment for meetings at all.

If cell phones count...

"It's okay, you don't have to worry about it." Luo Yao listened and gave Lu Yi a dose of reassurance.

But how to rest assured, she didn't elaborate with the other party.

After hearing what Luo Yao said, Lu Yi didn't ask any more questions. She thought the other party meant "I'm the boss, I know the inside story, and it doesn't matter if I'm absent."

But who would have thought that at the time of the meeting——

"Hey, isn't director Lu from the sales department here?" In the video conference, someone raised doubts.

Everyone came online one after another, only Lu Yi was missing.

Everyone found it very strange. After all, Luo Yao repeatedly emphasized the importance of this afternoon's meeting in the email. If there is no particularly important matter and he is absent directly, he may be punished.

At that time, Lu Yi was sitting next to Luo Yao looking down at her mobile phone, when she heard someone mentioning herself in the computer, she raised her eyes and glanced at the computer screen.

At the same time, he gave Luo Yao a suggestive look, motioning for him to explain for him.

Any excuse such as "asking for leave for business" or "special circumstances" will do.

Unexpectedly, Luo Yao didn't say anything, just raised his hand and turned the computer screen towards her——

"Don't worry about her."

"She's next to me."

Answered the questioner's question lightly.

Lu Yi only saw her slightly haggard face instantly appear on the screen.

The author has something to say:

There is one more tomorrow morning.
