Contention

Chapter 13

After breakfast, Lu Yuexi told Zou Feiniao to stay at home not to run around, and Shi Shi ran out of the house.

Today I am going to inspect a cooperative project with a boss from Guangdong.The real estate company has also set foot in it. Because of the large investment, Lu Yuexi still attaches great importance to it.

Wearing a hard hat and walking into the construction site, the person in charge of the project in front was introducing the situation, and Lu Yuexi listened casually.

The boss surnamed Chen from Guangdong was enthusiastic and talkative, and talked with the subordinates next to him. In contrast, Lu Yuexi seemed to be less interested, only smiling and tilting his head, as if he was listening.

The sun is fierce, especially at noon.Afraid of neglecting the leaders, the person in charge took everyone around to take pictures and go through a cutscene, then hurriedly took them to the hotel they had booked in advance.

Then there was another burst of eating and drinking. Seasonal prawns and yellow croakers, sashimi and crab stew, and expensive red wine were placed on the table.

After a while, Assistant Wen drove her back, and Lu Yuexi drank a lot of wine. Boss Chen laughed and praised her as a "heroine hero".

"Hey, hero to hero, I drank so much, Boss Chen should also be mean."

Boss Chen was taken aback for a moment, and laughed. Someone poured him a glass of wine. He held up the glass, touched it with Lu Yuexi, and drank it down in one gulp.

"Miss Lu is showing her face, she must be drunk, right?"

Lu Yuexi smiled: "Well, I really can't drink any more."

"Then, let me accompany you outside to blow some air, sober up?"

Lu Yuexi glanced at him, the other party's words were sincere, but stopped talking.She pondered for a moment, then smiled again:

"Okay."

The two left the box and went to the rest platform in the hotel corridor.Through the bright glass floor-to-ceiling windows, you can see the flowing water of the Oujiang River opposite, and several freighters humming past.

"It's said that Ou City is beautiful. Look at the scenery, it's true."

Lu Yuexi looked at it leisurely, then smiled lightly when he heard the words, and said:

"I don't like to talk about scenes, and I don't like to go around in circles. Boss Chen speaks directly."

Boss Chen turned to look at her, the smile on his face faded away, and after a moment of silence, his expression became serious:

"Then Chen will be straightforward. I came here this time, except that I need to supervise the project, and I mainly hope that Ms. Lu can do me a favor."

"Boss Chen, please tell me."

"Actually, I had a good friendship with Miss Lu's father."

Lu Yuexi raised his eyebrows: "Have you ever done it?"

Boss Chen was slightly embarrassed:

"Well, many years ago, but I did something that made your father very unhappy, so I even canceled many cooperation projects... The current cooperation scale is not large, so I came this time to invite Miss Lu Say something nice for me."

Lu Yuexi was absent-minded, with no expression on his face, he just asked lightly:

"Say something good, how do you say it?"

Boss Chen smiled, bowed his head and said softly:

"Didn't your father want to change the materials supplier for the later construction of the Shanghui Center in Sanya? It's always easier to cooperate with old friends, don't you think?"

Lu Yuexi's light-colored eyeballs slid towards him, and his eyes were unclear:

"Boss Chen is very well informed."

Her face was still flushed, she looked drunk, but her eyes were terribly clear.

Boss Chen coughed lightly when he heard the words, calmly took out a gift box from his pocket and handed it to Lu Yuexi, saying:

"I also ask Miss Lu to help pass it on to your father."

Lu Yuexi opened it and saw that it was a Patek Philippe rose gold double-hand men's watch, luxurious and expensive.

She looked up at Boss Chen, and the latter handed over another brocade box, with a somewhat confident tone:

"This is for Miss Lu."

Inside this brocade box is a simple and amiable Jade Buddha, which looks like Hetian white jade, gentle and restrained.

The two gifts are rare, it seems that Boss Chen has really put in painstaking efforts.

Lu Yuexi sneered, but couldn't see any joy.She put the lid on with a "snap" and looked directly at the other party, completely losing the drunken and comfortable posture just now:

"what do you mean?"

Boss Chen was taken aback: "Miss Lu?"

"My father has recently investigated the company's bribery and abuse of power. If you ask me to say good things, you can say good things. Take these two things out. Do you want me to hit my father with a gun/mouth?"

"This, I..."

Lu Yue didn't wait for him to explain, and stuffed something into his arms:

"I will mention your matter to my father. But don't worry too much about the rest. If you are really capable and qualified, my father will certainly consider you. After all, business is more important to him."

Boss Chen was reprimanded by her righteous words, and he didn't know what expression to make for a while.After a long silence, I stuffed my things back into my pockets, and said embarrassingly:

"What Miss Lu said is true. I didn't consider it properly. But the matter between me and your father will not be clear for a while. Anyway, I still hope that Miss Lu can help me with a few words."

Lu Yuexi smiled lightly:

"There is an old saying in Oucheng, which is 'Fences rely on piles, people rely on help, and Master Guan relies on Zhou Cang'. Don't worry, my father will not delay business because of some trivial matters. Since we have friendship, if we can help, we will still help. .”

The words have come to this point, it is useless to say more.Lu Yuexi slightly raised his hand, and Assistant Wen, who was standing not far away, was signaled to come forward.

"I drank too much and felt very uncomfortable, so I will go back first. Let Manager An accompany you for the rest of the activities. Goodbye." After Lu Yuexi nodded goodbye to Boss Chen, he then ordered Assistant Chaowen, "You drive me away. go back."

Boss Chen still wanted to say something, so he reached out to stop her.Lu Yuexi turned slightly to avoid it, smiled politely but alienated, and left.

"...Don't worry about me and Boss Chen. I understand what he wants you to say, and I will consider it." Through the phone in the car, Lu Heng said, "You have done a good job, and this ceremony is indeed true. It shouldn't be accepted. He likes to play tricks, so maybe there's something hidden in that thing."

Lu Yuexi gave a light "hmm".

After talking about business matters, it was inevitable that we would have to take care of a few words, but Lu Heng changed his tone and asked again:

"Are you tired these days? Are you still used to it?"

Lu Yuexi replied lukewarmly:

"It's okay, but there are too many things in a small company, and everything has to be done by myself."

Lu Heng smiled:

"You, you are born to command people's lives. How can this be too much? But because you are new here, the people below are afraid of offending you, so of course they will come to ask your opinion on everything. Once they get acquainted, they will I know what to do to comply with your wishes, so I won’t bother you with everything..."

Lu Yuexi was not willing to talk with his father about these tough topics, and even less willing to listen to his reasoning, so he just listened in silence.

Lu Heng taught himself a lesson, but when he heard the silence on the other side, he couldn't help but sighed:

"If you really feel tired, find a uncle as soon as possible, and help me share the burden."

Lu Yuexi gave a "tsk", very impatiently:

"I don't like men, didn't I say so?"

There was a moment of silence on the other side, Lu Yuexi was not worried about her father talking about her, after all, they had argued about this matter several times before, and of course Lu Yuexi won.

Her father is well aware of her stubborn character, and will never argue again in vain.

After a long time, Lu Heng resentfully said:

"Then it's okay to find a daughter-in-law. Don't be nonsense, but someone who can help with family affairs."

Lu Yuexi finally felt better, but her tone was still hesitant:

"understood."

Probably because he felt that his father was concerned, and he couldn't be too cold-faced, so he pretended to add a sentence:

"Where are you in Hainan? How are you doing?"

Lu Heng smiled: "Just be busy, I'm in good health, you don't have to worry, I run around the villa twice a day after busy work, your Uncle Wang said I'm in good health."

Lu Heng's business trip this time is to stay at a friend's house. First, he is busy with business, and second, he is here to visit friends who have been there for many years.

Lu Yuexi asked again: "What about Aunt Fang?"

"That's fine too."

"That's a good thing, take advantage of the opportunity to find me a younger brother and sister." Lu Yuexi actually hoped that her father would have another one. After all, she herself didn't plan to have children in the future, but someone must inherit the company, right?

However, when mentioning this, Lu Heng was vague:

"Let's talk about it, it's not decided yet..."

When Lu Yuexi heard something wrong, he smiled:

"This is, you have a new idea?"

Lu Heng coughed lightly, his old face lost:

"Don't worry too much about your lord's affairs. Your Auntie Fang and I have to talk about fate. Anyway, you will always have younger brothers and sisters."

Lu Yuexi snorted, very disdainful:

"A while ago, she said that she wanted to start a family with someone else and entrusted me to take care of other people's children."

"Ah, it's all about fate." Lu Heng sighed, "What about the child? You still have to take good care of others."

"Understood, I will offer it like my own sister."

"That's good, don't treat people badly."

Lu Heng's tone was heavy, as if helpless.Lu Yuexi took a closer look, noticed the clue, couldn't help chuckling, and chatted with him about other topics before hanging up the phone.

Her father's romantic history is stinky and long. Judging from his tone of voice just now, it is estimated that this time it will not work out.When he said "don't treat her badly", it should mean that he had already treated Aunt Fang badly, so he told Lu Yue not to treat her daughter badly.

She is always unwilling to take care of elders' affairs, and this time too, she only needs to take good care of Zou Feiniao for two months, and the rest, just like her father said, depends on fate.

After making the phone call, my mind is much clearer.Assistant Wen in the driver's seat was still driving the car without looking sideways, not knowing how much he had heard.

But Lu Yuexi knew that she would not go out and talk nonsense.

Looking down at the phone, the private detective sent a photo, saying that Ye Huai was on duty near Shuanglong Road.

Lu Yuexi sent a location to Assistant Wen, saying:

"Changing the road, go here, and don't go home."

Assistant Wen looked at the location, didn't say much, just turned the steering wheel obediently.

Lu Yuexi leaned back and narrowed his eyes.

The assistant that Lu Heng chose for her is really satisfactory. She doesn't talk much and has strong ability. It's really rare. Another day, she will find a name to give her a raise, and stay by her side to promote her. After a long time, she will be her right-hand man.

The place where Ye Huai is on duty is very close to here, and he will be there in about ten minutes.

Lu Yuexi asked Assistant Wen to find a parking space nearby to park the car, and he was not in a hurry to get out of the car. He just looked at Ye Huai in the distance who was directing traffic because the traffic light was broken, and smiled softly.

Because of the hot weather, Ye Huai had to stop to wipe off his sweat after moving.She was still expressionless, even though she was stepping on the asphalt road where the ground temperature exceeded forty degrees Celsius.

In my ears, there are the squeaking sound of the tires of the passing car running over the ground, and the restless siren sound, which is very noisy.

Under the scorching sun, the figure was slender and straight, just like the shadow of a mountain, with the ice and snow condensed, it can be said that it was completely motionless.

Lu Yuexi smelled the alcohol smell on his body, pondered for a while, and then told Assistant Wen:

"Go and buy her a bottle of water, that female traffic policeman. If you give it to her directly, she will definitely not want it. You have to talk about it, understand? Just say that you think it's hard work for her to serve the people, how can you say it sincerely, Be sure to pass the water into her hand."

Assistant Wen was stunned and turned to look at her.

Lu Yue regretted not saying much, and only explained lightly:

"She's an old acquaintance of mine."

Assistant Wen understood, and quickly got out of the car.

Lu Yuexi pressed his forehead against the car window, quietly watching her go to the convenience store to buy a bottle of water and walk towards Ye Huai.

It was only then that she discovered that Ye Huai really liked this job.At least when a stranger said "You've worked hard" and handed her water, she would lower her head and lick her lips, then take the water and smile slightly at the person.

She had never seen Ye Huai's expression like this, this slightly shy but satisfied look.

Assistant Wen left quickly and returned quickly.

The car door closed with a bang.

Lu Yuexi opened the car window and lit a cigarette leisurely.The white smoke blurred her facial features, and her sharp eyebrows and eyes were like blurred ink paintings:

"Wen Xin, have you ever been in love?"

Assistant Wen shook his head, not knowing what it meant.

Lu Yuexi smiled, turned his head and looked at the woman standing on the podium at the intersection of the street, and said lightly:

"Sometimes looking at her like this makes me very satisfied. It's a pity that if I go to deliver water, she probably won't want it."

Assistant Wen didn't understand what she meant, so she remained silent.

Lu Yuexi sat on the spot and smoked a cigarette slowly, then pinched the cigarette butt, and smiled lightly:

"Let's drive."
