Rebirth of a powerful marriage

Chapter 9: How about, let's switch drinks.

After discussing the wedding plan, Xu Zitai got up and said goodbye.

But Lu Zhaoming stopped him: "Master Zhuang, don't leave tonight, stay overnight."

Xu Zitai looked at him suspiciously: "What does Boss Lu mean?"

"Don't be nervous," Lu Zhaoming waved his hand, "When I say sleepover, I mean pure sleepover. You sleep on the bed, I sleep on the sofa, and I will never touch you."

Xu Zitai frowned: "Then why bother? Does Mr. Lu have any purpose?"

"I just want to help you out because you have been involved in scandals recently." Lu Zhaoming spread his hands, "I don't care about the news yesterday, but there is no guarantee that other servants in this room will not misunderstand you. After all, you You are a person who wants to marry into the Lu family. If you don’t establish a good reputation and prestige in the Lu family, I’m afraid there will be many small troubles waiting for you in the future, and I may not be able to help you solve these troubles. I mean, you know Bar?"

Xu Zitai raised his eyebrows: "So Lu always intends to sacrifice himself to fulfill my reputation?"

"As long as we create the appearance of love before marriage, those rumors will be self-defeating. Why not do it, Young Master Zhuang?"

"I don't care what other people think of me, just like President Lu doesn't mind my yangwei or zaoxie." Xu Zitai teased, walked to Lu Zhaoming's bed, and bent down to look at him, "What's more, Song Qing and I The more complicated and confusing the scandal with Mr. Lu is, the more people pay attention to Mr. Lu's marriage. Mr. Lu spent so much time and money on the extravagant wedding ceremony, is he hoping to raise people's attention to the "Immigrant Alliance" Well, this scandal of mine just added fuel to Mr. Lu's fire, Mr. Lu is very shrewd, so he should be happy to see him succeed."

After all, Xu Zitai straightened up, and continued: "So, I appreciate Mr. Lu's kindness. But it's not a good thing to live together before marriage. If you want to make a false impression of husband and wife love, let's talk about it after marriage."

Looking at the back of Xu Zitai leaving with his hands up, Lu Zhaoming snorted and muttered to himself: "You can guess exactly what I'm plotting; but what exactly do you want to get from this marriage?" Woolen cloth?"

The next morning, Lu Zhaoming deliberately got up half an hour earlier, and when he walked out of the bedroom, he met Xu Zitai who was walking out in sportswear.

"Going for a run again?" Lu Zhaoming struck up a conversation out of nothing.

Xu Zitai looked at the sportswear of similar styles on Lu Zhaoming's body, and raised his eyebrows: "Mr. Lu also has the habit of running in the morning?"

"I used to only run in the gym, but yesterday I was inspired by Mr. Zhuang, and I think it's better to go outside to breathe fresh air, which is healthier."

Xu Zitai tilted his head: "Then together?"

"Okay." Lu Zhaoming was waiting for his words.

When the two passed the dining room, they were spotted by some maids who were preparing breakfast, and they started talking in low voices.

——"Mr. Lu and Young Master Zhuang have such a good relationship, they actually went out for a morning run together."

——"What's the matter, haven't you seen the scandal about Young Master Zhuang?"

——"Ah, didn't Young Master Zhuang clarify what you said on his personal homepage?"

——"Do you believe this too? I still believe what I see in the photos. Can ordinary friends be so close? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Young Master Zhuang is completely inseparable from Song Qing and Ou!"

——"But, I think Mr. Lu likes Young Master Zhuang very much. I've never seen him show so much hospitality to anyone before. Today, he would accompany Young Master Zhuang to get up early and run in the morning!"

——"So, we, Mr. Lu, are really at a disadvantage. We were cuckolded before we got married."

——"Why isn't Mr. Lu angry at all? Could it be that he hasn't seen the news from the day before yesterday?"

——"Very likely, Mr. Lu usually only reads financial news, and he is not interested in this kind of paparazzi news."

——"I heard that Young Master Zhuang has a bad reputation outside. I really can't swallow this breath for Mr. Lu to marry such a man for no apparent reason."

——"I also heard that Young Master Zhuang used to be very irritable and often beat and scolded his domestic servants. I suspect that Young Master Zhuang has been so quiet these two days, it's just a temporary appearance. He tried his best to confuse Mr. Lu for Let Mr. Lu willingly take over the mess of 'Peak Tour'!"

——"How about, let's find a way to stimulate the true nature of Young Master Zhuang, so that Mr. Lu can see the true face of Young Master Zhuang?"

As soon as these words came out, several maids immediately got together and began to make suggestions in a chirping manner.

On the other side, Lu Zhaoming chatted with Xu Zitai while running: "I heard from your grandfather that you rarely came to the West District before, and you are relatively unfamiliar with it. Why don't you do it this way, I just don't have much work these two days, I will accompany you to the nearby Go shopping? Is there any place you want to go in particular?"

"No." Xu Zitai simply refused.

"Really?" Lu Zhaoming asked persistently.

Xu Zitai glanced at him: "Mr. Lu spends so much time on me, why?"

Lu Zhaoming blinked at him: "Show affection, you understand."

Xu Zitai rolled his eyes, and suddenly he seemed to think of something: "By the way, I remember... the cemetery in City A is in the West District?"

"Yes," Lu Zhaoming replied, looking at Xu Zitai, "Why are you asking this?"

"I want to visit the grave."

"Whose grave are you sweeping?"

"Xu Zitai."

Lu Zhaoming's footsteps gradually slowed down: "You... have a good relationship with Xu Zitai?"

"It's okay, he watched me grow up anyway," Xu Zitai began to talk nonsense, "When I was studying, Xu Zitai also taught me mathematics. Now that he has passed away, 'Peak Tour' has also crossed, I want to go to Look at him."

Lu Zhaoming was silent for a moment, then said: "Okay, after dinner, I will accompany you."

"No, I'll go by myself."

"No, I mean, I happen to want to see him too." Lu Zhaoming said.

Xu Zitai was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and asked in puzzlement, "What are you going to see him for?"

"I have an indissoluble bond with him..."

"Huh?" Xu Zitai blurted out, "Why don't I know?"

Lu Zhaoming looked at him amusedly: "Why should I let you know?"

"No, I mean... what indissoluble bond do you have with him?"

Lu Zhaoming raised his eyebrows, pretending to be profound: "Children should not inquire so much about matters between adults."

"..." Seeing Lu Zhaoming running away, the corners of Xu Zitai's mouth twitched, and ten thousand horses galloped past in his heart - Lu Zhaoming, I bought a watch last year!

After two laps, the two returned to the restaurant sweating profusely.

At this time, several maids had already prepared dishes for the two of them, and after they were seated, they retreated quietly as usual.

Xu Zitai took a sip of porridge, then frowned, hesitating whether to spit it out.

He turned his head and saw that Lu Zhaoming was eating deliciously, with the same expression on his face, so he suppressed the discomfort, swallowed the food in his mouth, and then asked curiously: "Boss Lu, your bowl of porridge seems to taste better. a little better?"

"It's okay." Lu Zhaoming replied, and looked at Xu Zitai strangely, thinking that the two of them drank the same porridge, who tastes better than the other?

"I want to try your porridge, why don't we drink it differently." Xu Zitai said, and before Lu Zhaoming could react, he reached out and exchanged their porridge bowls.

Lu Zhaoming looked at him amusedly: "You don't dislike me..."

"Not too much." Xu Zitai licked the corner of his mouth and smiled at him innocently.

Lu Zhaoming subconsciously avoided his gaze, thinking that Zhuang Ning's skin was really a disaster, and the seductive look in his eyes alone made people a little uncontrollable.

He settled down, pretending to be calm, took a sip of the bowl of gruel in front of him, and then spit it out.

"This, this porridge..." He stared at the bowl of porridge, his expression changed drastically.

Xu Zitai's smile became brighter and brighter: "It's delicious, Mr. Lu?"

Lu Zhaoming finally recalled what was going on, and immediately shouted to the door with a sullen face: "You guys, come in!"

The maids rushed in, and Lu Zhaoming pushed the bowl of porridge in front of him, and asked in a deep voice, "How much salt did you add?"

Several maids suddenly opened their eyes wide, and at the same time cast a reproachful gaze on one of the maids.The maid turned pale with fright, and blurted out: "No, I obviously put it in..."

Then she covered her mouth, realizing that she almost slipped her mouth.After weighing things in her mind, she bowed to Lu Zhaoming resignedly: "Yes... I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, I must have put the wrong seasoning when I cooked the porridge in the morning. I'm sorry, I will definitely pay attention next time!"

"I put the wrong seasoning in the porridge? Then how can there be such a difference between the two bowls of porridge?" Lu Zhaoming was not moved at all, his eyes swept among the maids, "Don't think I don't know about your little thoughts. , this kind of thing is not allowed to happen again, otherwise, just leave."

After the maids left in trepidation, Xu Zitai had already drank half of a bowl of porridge. Seeing Lu Zhaoming's dark face that hadn't recovered, he smiled very happily: "Mr. Lu, do you want me to share half with you?"

Lu Zhaoming was still angry and fired at Xu Zitai at this moment: "And you, you have something to say? I didn't order them to do this. What are you cheating me on?"

"As the saying goes, there is a grievance, and a debt has an owner. I won't cheat you. Don't tell me you want me to be serious with these little girls?" Xu Zitai paused, and then said, "What's more, this kind of thing has a There will be two, if they are not allowed to see how their master is furious, I am afraid they will repeat the same trick next time."

At this moment, Lu Zhaoming has gradually regained his composure, and the displeasure on his face gradually faded, replaced by a half-smile expression: "That's right, this kind of thing happens once and twice, this time because I'm here, I can help You teach those servants a lesson, but next time, if I'm not here, what should you do? I reminded you last night, if you don't build up your reputation in the Lu residence, you will encounter many similar little troubles, you How are you going to deal with it?"

"This should be something you should consider," Xu Zitai spread out his hands and said in a leisurely manner, "You are the owner of this house, if you can't even discipline your own servants, how can you really effectively manage more than 5000 people in the company? staff?"

As he said, he patted Lu Zhaoming on the shoulder without fear of death: "I am also helping you become a qualified manager more quickly, understand?"
