The clock on the wall pointed to ten o'clock, and the sound of brakes finally sounded outside the door.
Su Jianan rushed to the door and saw Lu Boyan coming back. She opened the shoe cabinet and took out his slippers, handed them to him and said, "I've cooked some noodles for you. I'll heat them up."
It's just right hot, not scalding your mouth, and enough to warm you up when you eat it.
Even though he had a busy day and his brows were filled with tiredness, Lu Boyan's eating posture was still elegant and eye-catching.
After finishing the last bite, Su Jianan handed him a tissue. He pressed the corners of his lips and said, "Go somewhere with me tomorrow morning."
The next day is Saturday.
Su Jianan woke up very early and went out with Lu Boyan without breakfast. When they arrived at their destination, they found that it was the old place - the golf course where Lu Boyan often visited.
Her intuition told her that Lu Boyan was not here to play ball. In Lu's current situation, he would not be able to have such a leisurely time at all.
The two got off the sightseeing battery car and met a middle-aged man. Su Jianan had an impression of him. His surname was Mo, and he was a senior executive in charge of the loan business of a certain bank.
Seeing Lu Boyan, Mr. Mo was obviously surprised, and then he laughed warmly: "Mr. Lu, it's so early!"
Before Lu Boyan could speak, Mr. Mo sighed again: "The assistant told me after get off work yesterday that you had called. I'm really sorry. I was too busy yesterday. The bank's loan business has been very tight recently. This The monthly quota has been approved, and there are a lot of things to follow up on. I am so busy that I can’t even have three meals on time.”
After complaining for a while, Mr. Mo finally stopped and looked at Lu Boyan as if remembering something: "By the way, Mr. Lu, why did you call me yesterday?"
Lu Boyan called yesterday about Lu's loan, and Mr. Mo actually knew about it. He also knew that Mr. Mo had just rejected him.
The best way to save face for both parties is to smile. Lu Boyan raised his lips: "It's okay."
"Oh, I'll go there first." Mr. Mo pointed into the distance and disappeared in an instant.
Although Su Jianan knew nothing about things in the mall, she also understood that Lu Boyan's loan was rejected before he even applied for it, and she felt mixed emotions.
She still remembered that the last time she saw this Mr. Mo was at the birthday party of President Fan of the Chamber of Commerce. At that time, he complimented Lu Boyan in every possible way, and looked like he wanted to ask Lu Boyan if he was short of money so he could get a loan.
But today the Lu family is facing a crisis. Lu Boyan really needs it, but he is afraid to avoid it.
In this world, shopping malls are probably the hottest.
"Everyone knows that the Lu family is in danger due to financial problems, so it is normal for banks not to approve loans." Lu Boyan was relaxed and calm, and took Su Jianan into the restaurant, "Let's have something to eat first."
There were a lot of people in the restaurant. When they saw Lu Boyan, everyone had similar expressions.
A little surprised, a little evasive, but had to maintain the surface politeness.
After all, Lu's past status was there, and Lu Boyan was unpredictable. No one could say for sure what method he would use to save Lu. Avoid him now like a savage beast, otherwise it will be difficult to meet him in the future if he turns around.
Lu Boyan seemed unaware of the subtle attitudes of these people and maintained his usual elegant and distant attitude. However, Su Jian'an could no longer make excuses with others. After ordering her meal, she excused herself to go to the bathroom, temporarily avoiding those prying eyes with malicious intentions.
As soon as I walked to the bathroom door, I heard comments coming from inside: "What is the situation of the Lu family now? Isn't it a financial crisis? Is Lu Boyan still in the mood to bring his wife to play ball?"
"Are you stupid? Can't you see through it?" Another person analyzed proudly, "What about playing ball? He's obviously here to ask someone to give Lu a loan. Didn't you see that Mr. Mo looked like he had seen a ghost when he saw Lu Boyan just now? Now that Lu’s future is uncertain, who dares to give Lu Boyan a loan?”
"The most unlucky one is the eldest lady of the Su family. The glorious Mrs. Lu has been in office for less than a year, and she has encountered such an unlucky thing."
Su Jianan thought for a while and walked straight into the bathroom.
When several women saw her in the mirror, they all fell silent and left quickly with embarrassed faces.
After washing her hands and returning to the restaurant, Su Jianan happened to see two men greeting Lu Boyan, then turned around and smiled meaningfully at each other.
That smile was a bit playful and a bit malicious. It was as if they had foreseen the tragedy that was about to happen to Lu Boyan.
Su Jian'an lost her appetite for food and went over to pull Lu Boyan out of her mood: "I won't eat anymore. Go home."
The car drove down the mountain.
Lu Boyan pulled down the baffle, pulled Su Jianan's face, and promised to take her home. She still looked unhappy and couldn't help but smile: "If you don't know, you will think that I am bullying you."
“…”
Lu Boyan sighed: "I knew I wouldn't have brought you here."
He rubbed Su Jianan's face. Su Jianan's expression was finally no longer so stiff, but her soft voice was more ruthless than ever: "I remember them!"
Lu Boyan raised his eyebrows: "Then?"
"Then you must win this time!" Su Jianan said firmly, "I want to see them bend down and beg you in the future!"
Lu Boyan laughed and hugged the snarling little monster, "Mrs. Lu, shopping malls have always been so realistic and cruel. You were protected too well by your brother before."
Su Jianan suddenly raised his head, his eyes shining: "Can you ask my brother for help?"
"Your brother and Tang Ming have helped as much as they can." Lu Boyan said, "But it's only enough for the Lu family to survive for another month."
Su Jianan lowered her eyebrows. There was only one month left, either someone was willing to give Lu a loan, or... Kang Ruicheng was sent to prison.
Before returning home, Lu Boyan didn't get out of the car. He touched Su Jianan's head: "I have to go somewhere and come back at night."
Su Jianan didn't bother him, and kissed him hard: "Come on, hubby!"
Lu Boyan smiled and watched Su Jianan enter the house before letting Uncle Qian drive.
After Su Jianan entered the house, he didn't expect to see Su Yicheng in the living room.
Uncle Xu said: "Young madam, Mr. Su has been here for half an hour."
Su Jian'an nodded and took the initiative to explain to Su Yicheng: "Bo Yan said he had to go somewhere, so he left without getting out of the car."
"I know." Su Yicheng said, "He is going to visit the company's directors today to persuade them not to sell the company's stocks."
Su Jianan sat next to Su Yicheng and looked at him: "Brother..." Suddenly there was no sound, leaving only a confused look on his face.
Su Yicheng knew what she was thinking and held her hand: "If you can't help, don't worry about it. Many people are still sure that Bo Yan can survive this."
Su Jianan's hands were twisted together uneasily: "But I saw those people today... Forget it, let's not mention them, Lu will definitely survive this!"
As long as Lu survives, it will be the most powerful slap in the face.
"What are you going to do if the results are not so optimistic?" Su Yicheng asked.
"The worst result is debt and bankruptcy." Su Jianan spread his hands, "What else can we do? Accompany him to make a comeback."
Su Yicheng smiled and said, "You do believe Lu Boyan."
Su Jianan curled her lips, "So many people don't believe him and are waiting to see his good show. I am his wife, even if the whole world doubts him, I will choose to believe him."
Su Yicheng gently rubbed Su Jian's soft long hair like he did when he was a child: "You have grown up so much. If my mother can see it, she will be very happy."
Su Jianan just smiled: "Brother, stay and have lunch together, I'll cook it for you!"
Su Yicheng looked at the time and shook his head: "No, I made an appointment to play chess."
"Who did you date?" Su Jian'an was puzzled, "I know all your friends. They either like horse riding or are keen on playing basketball. Who likes playing chess?"
Su Yicheng stood up and left without revealing anything. The driver came down and opened the door for him and asked, "Are you going to Mr. Luo's house?"
Su Jianan understood instantly—Lao Luo really liked playing chess.
"Let's go." Su Yicheng turned around and said to her before getting in the car.
Su Jianan smiled and waved to him: "Brother, this is a good move."
Luo Xiaoxi was away, so she took her place and accompanied Lao Luo for a walk, and attacked her family first. Why were they afraid that Luo Xiaoxi would not submit when she came back
Su Jianan's mood finally improved. She ate something to cushion her stomach and took out a copy of Hong Qing's photo from her bag.
If we find Hong Qing and convince him to overturn his confession, we can hopefully send Kang Ruicheng to prison.
But in a huge crowd, it was not easy for her to find a stranger she had never met before.
Maybe it would be easier to leave it to Lu Boyan to find him. But now he is busy enough with the company's affairs. What's more, she promised to leave the matter of overturning his father's case to her.
Just when he was worried, Jiang Shaokai called.
"My uncle has promised to help us find Hong Qing!" Jiang Shaokai let out a long sigh on the other end of the phone, "It's okay now. We don't have to do anything. We can just wait for news about my uncle."
"Help me say thank you to your uncle." Thousands of words came to his lips, and finally they were condensed into one sentence. Su Jianan said word by word, "Thank you too."
Jiang Shaokai smiled and replied seriously: "You're welcome." After a pause, "By the way, what are your plans today?"
"If I have nothing to do this afternoon, I would like to visit the police who handled this case." Su Jian'an said, "Maybe I can find some doubts from their mouths."
"Lu Boyan will accompany you?"
"How can he have time?"
"Then I'll go with you." Jiang Shaokai said, "It's not safe for you to go alone. But let's make a deal first: externally, we must unanimously declare that we are working overtime."
Su Jianan pondered for a moment and then understood everything: "...were you forced to go on a date with Zhou Qilan again?" That's why she used work as an excuse to leave home.
"Ahem." Jiang Shaokai's voice became unnatural, "See you in the afternoon!"
After hanging up the phone, Su Jianan inadvertently looked out the window and saw it was snowing again.
But the mood is no longer as exciting as seeing the first snow.
She remembered that it was midsummer, when she ran into Lu Boyan's study with a pot of coffee, and he promised to take her to a French winery in the winter to taste the newly released red wine.
The Lu family suddenly encountered a crisis. I'm afraid they won't be able to go this year, right? (To be continued)
