she's not at ease
Chapter 51 Double Standard
After Luo Yao flipped through the missed chat records page by page, he put the phone back in the drawer, pretending to be nonchalant.
But not long after, the intercom phone on the desk rang, and it was a call from an outside secretary.
"Mr. Luo, today's lunch arrangement is...?"
Do you eat takeout or order a restaurant?
The secretary hesitated to speak.
She didn't know if her boss was busy and forgot. Usually, she would be notified about the lunch arrangement an hour or two in advance, but now it was almost noon and she hadn't received the designated arrangement, so she had to ask herself.
However, the answer I got was even more surprising: "No, we will eat in the cafeteria today."
After Luo Yao finished speaking, she hung up the phone directly, and she pressed her toes against the ground to make the chair slide back a little to make room for getting up.
The secretary who stayed outside within 2 minutes heard the sound of the door opening. She looked up and saw that Luo Yao had put on her coat and just walked out of the office, and was walking towards the elevator entrance without squinting.
"You can go to eat when it's almost time. You don't need to stay here for too long, and you don't have any work arrangements anyway."
Luo Yao didn't turn his head back, leaving a faint sentence.
For some reason, the secretary shuddered after hearing this.
She always felt that the boss was in a bad mood.
It only takes tens of seconds to go from the 24th floor to the floor where the company's exclusive cafeteria is located without stopping.
At this point in time, the cafeteria is very lively.
Luo Yao walked in for such a short distance, and soon attracted the attention of other people in the cafeteria, and people began to say hello to her one after another——
"Hello, Mr. Luo!"
"Mr. Luo."
"..."
Some Luo Yao was familiar with, while others had no impression at all.
She looked around, trying to find Lu Yi's figure in the crowd.
But unfortunately, it was not found.
At this moment, a familiar voice came from behind her: "President Luo?"
Luo Yao turned around.
"Mr. Luo, it's really you. I thought I was mistaken." Yan Qingshu's expression was wonderful, her pretty face was full of surprise.
In her perception, Luo Yao never came to the company cafeteria to eat.
Because she ate in the cafeteria every day, but never saw each other.
"Director Yan." Luo Yao nodded to her, and was about to turn around and leave after saying hello.
Unexpectedly, the other party's next sentence stopped her.
"Boss Luo doesn't look like he's here for dinner, but he's here to see Director Lu?" Yan Qingshu boldly guessed, and when she got up to gossip, she didn't care that she still had a freshly made meal in her hand.
She couldn't think of anything else.
And Luo Yao extracted the key information from her words: "Did you see Lu Yi?"
Yan Qingshu hesitated for a moment.
She wasn't sure either.
But Luo Yao accurately captured the moment of the other party's hesitation, and she immediately said: "I made an appointment with Director Lu and the others to talk about something at noon, but I couldn't get through on the phone just now..."
Luo Yao specially used the word "they", and she looked sad: "I don't know if I didn't hear it."
"Oh, that's indeed possible." In this way, Yan Qingshu completely dispelled her doubts.
She began to guide Luo Yao enthusiastically: "Director Lu and the others are at the cooking area. There are quite a lot of people there and it's normal that they didn't hear it."
After being guided by the "cooking area", Luo Yao and Yan Qingshu said goodbye and immediately walked in another direction.
The location given by Yan Qingshu was very clear, and Luo Yao quickly found where Lu Yi and the others were.
Looking from afar, I saw the two sitting in front of the empty table talking and laughing, talking about something, as if they were waiting for the food to be delivered from the cafeteria window.
Luo Yao frowned displeased.
She looked around twice, and quickly walked to a vegetable steaming window, randomly brought two bowls of vegetables and walked towards the two of them.
And the location she passed by happened to be within Huang Zhou's field of vision.
It was very difficult for Huang Zhou not to see it.
really--
"Boss Luo?"
Hearing Huang Zhou's sudden utterance, Lu Yi also turned around and saw Luo Yao walking towards them with a dish tray in his hand.
It would be a lie to say not surprised.
But in addition to being surprised, a look of joy naturally appeared in his eyes.
She originally thought that she would have to get off work today at the latest to see her.
"Mr. Luo, what a coincidence." Lu Yi skillfully managed her expression so that no one would see the clue.
But a pair of eyes had already firmly stuck to Luo Yao.
Until the other party came to the table where the two were sitting, put down the tray and sat down.
"You two, what a coincidence." Luo Yao showed a faint smile, continuing to maintain his dignified president personality, "I originally wanted to experience the staff meal in the cafeteria today to see if there is anything that needs improvement, but I didn't think Just happened to meet you."
"Boss Luo is really a good boss who cares about his employees!"
Luo Yao casually uttered a nonsense, Huang Zhou believed it to be true.
Lu Yi couldn't help but glanced at the other party, and then echoed: "Indeed, our company's employee benefits are thanks to Mr. Luo."
Do not wear flattery.
Lu Yi smiled fakely, and it could be seen that Luo Yao's expression froze after she uttered this flattery.
What does it feel like to be kissed by your girlfriend?
I'm afraid only Luo Yao can answer this question.
But Luo Yao's focus was not on this.
The embarrassment of "being flattered" only lasted for a short while, and she quickly returned her attention to serious matters.
Luo Yao didn't forget why he came to the cafeteria today.
She unhurriedly picked up the chopsticks on the tray, and asked casually, "By the way, why do you two come to the cafeteria to eat together?"
"I remember that the sales department and the product department are not on the first floor?"
"Recently, I've always heard people say that the friendship between the two is very good. I thought it was fake, but now it seems..."
"It's not impossible."
"Director Huang, do you have a good relationship with Director Lu?" Luo Yao asked.
Every word that came out of Luo Yao's mouth sounded a little casual, and you never knew whether she was testing or just asking casually.
Huang Zhou, who was named, became visibly nervous.
He glanced at Lu Yi with a guilty conscience, and this glance made Lu Yi baffled.
"Director Huang, if Mr. Luo asks you, just answer truthfully, there is nothing wrong with it." Lu Yi didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement.
Among the three people at the table, she is probably the one who is the clearest.
Lu Yi knew that Huang Zhou had other thoughts about her, and at the same time, she also knew the purpose of Luo Yao's pursuit of the cafeteria.
She built this fire with her own hands, and she wished she could add two sticks of firewood to make the fire burn even more vigorously.
"This..." Huang Zhou frowned, trying to cover up his intentions with official business, "Mr. Luo, I just went to the sales department to talk to Director Lu about modifying new products in the morning, and we talked about it until noon before we came down for dinner together. "
"So this is ah."
"It seems that I misunderstood the two of you."
Luo Yao looked "so that's the case": "Let me just say, the company clearly stipulates that no romantic relationship between employees is allowed. Thinking about it, it is impossible for both of them to take the lead in violating the rules."
Knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger, Huang Zhou's heart trembled when he heard it.
Cold sweat was already breaking out on his back.
But Lu Yi on the other side of the table still maintained a relaxed look: "Hey, why hasn't the food we ordered arrived yet, otherwise, Director Huang, why don't you go and remind me?"
Lu Yi felt that she was very kind, and specially gave Huang Zhou a chance to breathe.
"Okay, I'll go and ask now!"
After reaching the steps, Huang Zhou immediately got up obediently.
His figure gradually moved away, leaving only two people sitting at the table.
Looking at Huang Zhou's back in a hurry, Lu Yi said flatly, "Mr. Luo, you scared Director Huang away."
But how could Luo Yao admit it?
"I just reminded him of the company's rules and regulations." Luo Yao pretended not to know what you were talking about.
It made Lu Yi chuckle twice.
"Boss Luo did a good job of using power for personal gain." She sighed, her gaze naturally fell on the dishes on the tray in front of Luo Yao, and the smile on her face became even more intriguing, "You came here specially for dinner of?"
"Yes." Luo Yao nodded.
He would never admit that he was hiding in the company's gossip group and listened to the corner.
After finishing speaking, meeting Lu Yi's eyes, Luo Yao picked up the chopsticks and prepared to start eating symbolically, making a gesture, who would have thought that the chopsticks in his hand froze in mid-air as soon as they were stretched out.
Not going in, not going back.
Lu Yi saw her movements, and the smile in his eyes deepened: "Boss Luo, aren't you eating?"
It turned out that he didn't pay attention when he picked up the vegetables at the window just now, and the two bowls of vegetables he picked up turned out to be the two foods that Luo Yao hates the most - stir-fried pork with carrots and stir-fried bitter gourd.
Luo Yao finally knew what was behind the intriguing smile on Lu Yi's face.
Laughing at her for covering her ears and stealing her bell, the dead duck has a hard mouth.
The meal was very perfunctory, Luo Yao couldn't bear it, and Huang Zhou also lost his appetite because of nervousness.
After lunch, Luo Yao and Lu Yi walked into the elevator side by side, followed by Huang Zhou.
After the elevator door closed, Lu Yi seemed to remember something, and suddenly said, "Mr. Luo, what if someone really violates the company's rules and regulations and engages in an office romance?"
Like a whim.
"You can do whatever you want." Luo Yao glanced at her and said calmly, "The company's rules and regulations are not decorations."
Standing beside him was Huang Zhou who minimized his sense of existence. He silently listened to the conversation between the two and did not intend to interrupt.
Fortunately, the floor of the product department was relatively low, so after enduring this for a while, he said goodbye to the two of them, and quickly fled the closed space.
The elevator doors closed again and began to slowly ascend.
At this time, Lu Yi naturally took a step closer to Luo Yao.
Sensing the opponent's movement, Luo Yao turned his head.
It happened to meet Lu Yi's smiling eyes.
"Then what if the person in the office romance is Mr. Luo?" Lu Yi tilted her head and asked, "Do you want to be punished too?"
She looked up at the monitor in the corner.
The camera in the elevator only took pictures but didn't make any sound, that's why Lu Yi acted so boldly.
Luo Yao hooked her lips, and naturally inserted her hands into the pockets of her coat.
She asked Lu Yi——
"Do you know double standards?"
"I am."
