Chapter 58 Are You Asleep? Is She a Beauty?
If you’re not awake yet, there’s still hot water in the kettle.
If that doesn’t work, there’s plenty in the hallway water pipe.
Enough to go around!
If this doesn’t wake him up, he’s not a Lin anymore!
Assistant Lin was always the most composed of the three. Seeing him lose his temper and even dare to lay a hand on Lu Chengze, Wu Yue couldn’t help but swallow.
Tough guy!
What a tough guy!
For a moment, he couldn’t tell who was the boss and who was the employee.
Lu Chengze was also stunned by the cup of water.
Seeing that he had subdued him, Assistant Lin immediately pressed his advantage, “What’s the use of going to find Jian Yao now?”
He looked Lu Chengze up and down, his eyes filled with undisguised disdain.
“Lu Chengze, do you want to buy a mirror and take a good look at what you look like now? Going to find Jian Yao in this state, besides being a control group for Gu Zhiyan to prove that Jian Yao’s choice was right, what else can you do?”
Lu Chengze stood there, letting the water droplets slide down his forehead and eyebrows, silent.
The hand at his side, however, was clenched tightly, as if Assistant Lin would have his fist land on his face if he said another word.
Wu Yue stood aside, watching with trepidation, wondering in his heart who he should pull first if they started fighting.
Based on proximity and familiarity, it would be Assistant Lin to avoid Brother Lu from getting hurt.
But if he followed his heart, he really wanted to pull Brother Lu, what if Assistant Lin really woke him up?
Besides, Brother Lu had been a bit of a pain lately.
When he crashed into Gu Zhiyan’s car, he would have lost control of his fist if he hadn’t been holding onto his thighs with both hands.
Wu Yue looked at the two men facing each other, his mind already filled with countless possibilities.
How would they fight, how should he pull them to appear not so biased and still look cool.
Assistant Lin’s eyes swept over Lu Chengze’s clenched fists, and he stubbornly leaned in, “Oh, you want to hit me?”
He pointed to his forehead, “Come on, hit here. If you hit me with this punch, I’ll have a good reason to openly defect to Lu Chengyuan.”
“Not only will I not blame you, I’ll even thank you for giving me a great opportunity. After all, everyone in the company knows you’re going to be kicked out.”
As soon as Wu Yue heard this, he immediately went up to pull Assistant Lin, weakly persuading him, “Don’t say things like that, it’s hurtful.”
Assistant Lin sneered, “Hurtful? Take a look at him now, he still wants to go after Jian Yao? If he gets any more depressed, even Liu Yiyi will run away!”
He was about to burst with anxiety, wanting to split every minute into eight parts, yet he had to be his psychological counselor here!
Damn it, all for whom!
Wu Yue: …
How did he manage to step on Brother Lu’s minefield with every word?
He saw from the corner of his eye that the veins on Lu Chengze’s arms were popping out.
However, when he thought Assistant Lin was inevitably going to get hit, Lu Chengze seemed like a balloon punctured by a needle, his whole body retracted its thorns.
He raised his hand to wipe his face, the haze in his eyes dissipated, his eyes regained clarity, his voice still hoarse, but without the previous madness.
“Stop trying to provoke me, I won’t hit you.”
He had already suffered enough for his impulsiveness, he couldn’t make another rash decision and chill the hearts of those around him.
Jian Yao and Gu Zhiyan had known each other for so long, they had never had any interaction before, there were no sparks before, and there would be none in the future.
She was definitely with him to anger him.
Besides, everyone in the circle knew that Gu Zhiyan liked men, the previous things must have been a play for him.
He was too eager and fell into Gu Zhiyan’s trap.
The top priority now was to stabilize the situation at Lu’s.
After sorting out his thoughts, Lu Chengze wiped his face, straightened his back and walked towards the door, “Tell me about the situation at Lu’s first.”
Assistant Lin’s professionalism was immediately evident, he was almost in the state in a second.
“After Li’s side released the news, many partners who had already paid deposits demanded a refund. The business department’s phones have been blown up…”
Wu Yue stood in the ward, listening to the receding footsteps, with a dazed expression.
Huh?
Wasn’t he about to fight just now?
How come in the blink of an eye, he’s become superfluous?
Similarly noticing the trending topic about Lu’s, there was also Jian Yao.
But compared to Lu’s crisis, she was more concerned about the number behind it.
Eight hundred million.
Such a large amount, Uncle Li had endured it without saying a word to her.
She suddenly remembered the day of the engagement, when Uncle Li asked her if she had really broken up with Lu Chengze.
It was also from that day that Lu’s started having problems.
Jian Yao’s eyes felt a little hot. If she had really gotten engaged to Lu Chengze that day, how long would Uncle Li have to endure Lu’s for him?
Only now did she realize that her impulsiveness at the time had caused so much trouble for the person who truly loved her.
This was what she saw, but how much more was there that she didn’t see behind the scenes?
A warm tear slipped from Jian Yao’s eye, landing on the phone screen, bursting into a fine spray of water.
She wiped away her tears and called Uncle Li to apologize and thank him for taking care of her all these years.
After repeatedly confirming that this incident really had no impact on Li’s company, she hung up the phone, quickly packed up and went to the kitchen.
Gu Zhiyan had already gone to work, and there was a thermos on the dining table with a sticky note on it, and a black card next to it.
[I’m going to work first, the food is in the thermos, that card is my salary, I know you’re going out with your bestie, I’ll cover all expenses today.]
After reading the words on the sticky note, the slight loneliness that arose in Jian Yao’s heart because Gu Zhiyan wasn’t there was instantly filled.
Sure enough, in this world, there’s nothing more joyful than marrying an ATM machine.
Jian Yao happily ate her meal, took out her phone and sent a location to Xu Si, along with a picture of the black card, “Sister, come pick me up quickly, I’m using my husband’s money to support you!”
Xu Si almost instantly replied, “Ahhhh, I love you, wait, I’m coming to spoil you!”
In front of Gu Garden.
A flashy red Ferrari slammed to a halt at the entrance, the window rolled down, revealing Xu Si’s exquisite face.
She used two fingers to push down her sunglasses, squinting at the ancient courtyard in front of her, “Tsk tsk” twice.
“Luxurious!”
“Really luxurious!”
Just this location and size, it wouldn’t be possible to get it without a few billion.
Jian Yao opened the passenger door and got in, in the process of fastening her seatbelt, Xu Si’s head was already leaning in, “Tell your sister the truth, does he have any eligible brothers or younger brothers?”
“Do you think I’m qualified to enter the Gu family?”
Jian Yao: …
She hadn’t even been to the Gu family’s old house, how would she know this?
She did see a lot of Gu family members on the day of the engagement, but she was too nervous at the time.
Didn’t pay attention.
Jian Yao blinked, tentatively saying, “Should I pay attention to it for you later?”
Xu Si “Tsk”ed, lecherously looking Jian Yao up and down, trying to find some “suspicious” evidence, “Let’s talk about the real thing.”
“Who suggested living together?”
“Are you sleeping together?”
“Is he a top-tier guy?”
