Chapter 5: Cold-Faced Doctor x Wealthy and Powerful CEO 05

Late August, a weekend.

Lu Yan had just finished his morning run and returned home when he received a call from his new friend, Shen Du.

Shen Du invited him to lunch, and he agreed. He couldn’t be working all the time, he needed time to relax. Even workaholics needed a break.

System 729, with nothing to do, spent the whole day playing games with its friends, ignoring its host’s life. Anyway, there were no male and female leads to cause trouble for the host, so its host could do whatever it wanted, and it no longer needed to act as a tool.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Yan, as usual, read a book, a picture of peace and quiet.

He had recently taken on a research project, working on it while working at the hospital. He had just achieved results last week, so he could relax now.

Lu Yan was in a good mood as he flipped through the book. Around eleven o’clock, he changed clothes and went downstairs. As soon as he came out, he saw Shen Du waiting outside.

He quickly walked towards the man with a smile in his eyes, a faint smile on his lips, “Shen Du, why did you come here? I can go by myself.”

Shen Du said calmly, “I wanted to pick up my friend.”

His eyes flickered slightly, in his heart, he actually wanted to turn this ‘friend’ into a ‘boyfriend’.

Lu Yan chuckled, “Okay, let’s go together.”

Shen Du opened the back door of the car, and after watching Lu Yan get in, he followed.

After they were both seated, Shen’s driver drove them to the restaurant Shen Du had booked.

Shen Du leaned his head and stared at Lu Yan, who was exquisite in every way, his heart beating uncontrollably.

“Ayan, what do you think of homosexuality?”

He nervously reached out to test his sweetheart’s view on homosexuality, afraid of hearing a word of disapproval from him.

Lu Yan’s voice was low and gentle, “Homosexuality is a normal and beautiful sexual orientation. Everyone has the right to choose their own love, and our country declared same-sex marriage legal ten years ago.”

Shen Du stared at Lu Yan痴痴地, so his sweetheart didn’t discriminate against this kind of love.

Then, he would have to go for it directly.

He didn’t want to be Lu Yan’s friend for life, he wanted to spend the rest of his life with him.

Lu Yan raised his handsome eyebrows, “Why are you asking this suddenly?”

Shen Du raised a smile, “The person I like is a man, I’m afraid you’ll dislike me and never talk to me again.”

Lu Yan smiled slightly, his pleasant voice followed.

“Love has nothing to do with gender or age, only true and unique love can be respected and understood. As long as you don’t be a scumbag, whether you like men or women, what does it matter to others!”

“I’m your friend, why do I need to meddle in your private affairs?”

Shen Du was still smiling when he heard his first words, but after hearing Lu Yan’s last two sentences, the smile on his face suddenly became a bit strained.

Friend! Damn friend!

I like you, I want to date you, it’s not a pure friendship without any romantic feelings.

The driver in the front, an old man, heard the conversation between the two in the back, and sighed heavily in his heart. Mr. Shen clearly had a crush on Dr. Lu, and befriending him was just a pretense.

Mr. Shen wanted to take things to the next level through friendship, to get close to the water and get the moon first, but Dr. Lu was genuinely making friends.

Lu Yan looked at Shen Du with a puzzled expression, and asked with some doubt, “Shen Du, are you feeling unwell?”

“(_) ” Shen Du felt his heart stabbed again by his sweetheart.

It wasn’t that he was feeling unwell, but that his heart was blocked and uncomfortable. His two dark eyes also rippled, as if there was a faint shimmer of water.

Ahhh! Although he was using the guise of friendship to get close to Lu Yan, who was completely oblivious to his feelings, Lu Yan’s clueless behavior was really infuriating, making him want to pry open his brain and have a good look.

He texted and called Lu Yan every day, and he also invited Lu Yan out to eat and shop from time to time, doing what lovers should do.

But Lu Yan treated it all as the purest socialist brotherhood between them.

What kind of thick-skinned person was this!

Shen Du even doubted if he was on the wrong track. He shouldn’t have used this method of boiling a frog slowly, he should have just confessed directly.

But then he thought about the fact that Lu Yan was still a virgin at twenty-eight, and he felt that he should take things slowly, he couldn’t rush things.

Maybe Lu Yan was just a late bloomer!

Shen Du pulled back his wandering thoughts, met Lu Yan’s eyes filled with concern, and gritted his teeth, “No, I’m not feeling unwell.”

He was in perfect health, he was eating well and sleeping well.

It was just that his sweetheart wasn’t getting it, which was killing him. He wanted to pry open his sweetheart’s heart.

Lu Yan didn’t know his thoughts, and went back to looking out the window at the scenery.

Shen Du: I’m so angry, what’s so interesting about the traffic outside, why don’t you look at me!

Yu Wei Restaurant.

Shen Du and Lu Yan chatted and laughed, enjoying the restaurant’s signature dishes.

“The person I like, no one can touch!”

Suddenly, they heard a loud shout from outside, the voice was so familiar that it made them change their expressions.

Lu Yan gritted his teeth, “It’s Fu Ye, why is he haunting me.”

He had already fallen out with the male lead, how could he still encounter a scene where the male lead appeared.

He couldn’t even have a peaceful meal.

Shen Du put down his chopsticks, his eyes gloomy as he looked at the man and two women downstairs.

He silently took out his phone, clicked on the recording button, and recorded everything happening downstairs.

Fu Ye’s mother looked at her son in disbelief, then turned to glare at Wen Nuan, “Tell me, how much money do you want before you’ll leave my son!”

She would never let Wen Nuan, this bitch, continue to harm her precious son. Her perfectly intelligent CEO had become a complete idiot.

Wen Nuan said with tears in her eyes, “Although I’m poor, I have dignity.”

“Even if you are Mr. Fu’s mother, I will never accept such humiliation from you.”

Her voice was a little weak, and she trembled as she hid behind Fu Ye.

Fu Ye patted Wen Nuan’s shoulder, “Don’t cry, only I have the right to make you cry in the future.”

Then he looked at his mother, “She is the most innocent and kind girl I have ever met, how can you not see her good qualities.”

Fu Ye’s mother’s fingers trembled with anger, “Fu Ye, you are my son!”

“You are already engaged to Miss Xu, you can’t get mixed up with this woman anymore. Break up with her immediately and send her far away.”

The Fu family was on the verge of collapse due to Shen Du’s repeated blows. They had finally managed to get the Xu family to help them get through the crisis, but her son was still eating from the bowl and looking at the pot.

If Miss Xu found out, their family’s support would be completely gone.

Would the Fu family still be one of the richest and most powerful families in Jiangdu City? No! Shen Du alone wouldn’t let them off the hook.

Fu Ye held Wen Nuan tightly, as if he wanted to embed the woman into his body.

“I don’t want to, only I can give Wen Nuan happiness, I don’t trust anyone else.”

Shen Du upstairs stopped recording the subsequent events and sent the video to Fu Ye’s fiancée, letting her make the decision.

He had been targeting the Fu family for months, and he had already brought Lanfan Group to its knees. It wouldn’t be long before he acquired it and merged it into Shen’s Group.

But Miss Xu, who had always been arrogant and proud, suddenly took a liking to Fu Ye, and the Xu family helped to stabilize the precarious Lanfan Group.

Now, Fu Ye had fallen into his trap and delivered the evidence to him.

He didn’t believe that Miss Xu would be able to continue keeping Fu Ye after watching this video. It was likely that the Fu family would end up making an enemy instead of a relative.
