Don’t Be a Kept Man

Chapter 22: Looking at the green hills and thinking far away, it's better

Views:

The first day of the new year is coming soon. First-tier cities are not allowed to use whips, but small places are not so strict. In the early morning before dawn, the sound of firecrackers outside was crackling, and the air was filled with a whiff of firecrackers. Fireworks smell.

The Lu family didn't need to visit relatives. Lu Qi and Lu Yuanqi had posted the couplets and blessings in front of the house, and then kowtowed to Lu's mother together. After the New Year's greetings, they both received a red envelope of considerable weight.

Mother Lu smiled and gently touched the heads of the two children, and said the words of blessings that have not changed for thousands of years but are full of heart,

"The new year is safe and sound, and everything goes well."

"Thank you Mom, and I wish you good health, a long life, and the more you live, the more beautiful you are!"

Lu Yuan obviously knew better how to say auspicious words. After just a few words, Lu's mother smiled. After she finished speaking, she took out two red envelopes from her pocket, one for Lu's mother and one for Lu Qi.

"Mom, you've worked hard, this is my filial piety."

He turned around to face Lu Qixiao's eyebrows,

"Aqi, Happy New Year, and I wish you success in your studies and success."

She is a girl who works hard outside and spends money on food, clothing, housing and transportation. Lu Qi touched the hard bank card in the red envelope, thinking that she might have saved all her tuition fees for a year, smiled and nodded,

"I'll pack a big one for you when my brother gets to work later."

He didn't have a stable income for the whole family. Even if Lu Qi gave them a red envelope, they wouldn't want it. During the New Year's Eve in the evening, Huo Mingchen stuck the clock and sent him a huge red envelope of unknown amount, but Lu Qi confiscated it, which made Huo Mingchen a little unhappy, and finally coaxed him after saying a few nice words.

The winter vacation was not long. The two had to rush back to the capital after staying at home for a few days. Lu Qi remembered Lu Yuan's job entry, and did not delay much. He hurriedly reported his name to the school and asked Huo Mingchen out.

Lu Yuan put on a black and white business suit, with a pair of thin-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose, which concealed the overly gorgeous atmosphere, and looked dignified and elegant. The two stood on the side of the road and waited for Huo Mingchen's gap. She couldn't help but ask,

"Aqi, that second son of Huo... is he on good terms with you?"

Lu Qi lowered his eyes slightly, and half of his words were hidden and half of his words were revealed.

"Oh, it's good. Although he doesn't look easy to mess with, he's a good person."

Lu Yuan said,

"I'm happy that you can make friends, but be careful. Those rich sons are very good. They never do business at a loss. Don't let people fool you."

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a pure black high-end sports car speeding by in front of them not far away, then backed up, and finally stopped slowly in front of Lu Qi.

The car window was lowered, revealing the man's sharp and stern brows, but it looked a bit attractive, not very close.

Lu Qi leaned over to support the car window, his eyes met Huo Mingchen in mid-air, and pointed to Lu Yuan,

"This is my sister."

The latter reacted and understood, took a half step forward and smiled slightly,

"Hello Mr. Huo, I'm Lu Yuan."

Huo Mingchen seemed to want to say something to Lu Qi, but because of Lu Yuan's presence, it was not easy to appear that the two were too intimate, so he just nodded slightly,

"Get in the car, I'll take you to the company."

Lu Qi habitually opened the car door and sat in the co-pilot, but Lu Yuan was startled when he saw this, so he had to sit in the back alone.

Huo Mingchen started the car, glanced at Lu Qi without a trace, and found that he was wearing a black suit today, with two long legs overlapping leisurely, watching his nose, nose and heart, his shirt buttoned all the way to his Adam's apple, showing that abstinence temperament performed to the extreme.

Stupid, what to wear.

Huo Mingchen scolded secretly, a little dissatisfied that he didn't look at him at a glance, so he couldn't help speeding up the car, just wanted to send Lu Yuan to the company quickly. Lu Qi took all this into his eyes, and there was a smile that was not a smile on his lips. He clenched his fists against his lips and coughed twice, then he folded his arms and turned to look at the scenery outside the window.

Huo Mingchen glanced at him and said in a cool tone,

"What are you looking at, there are flowers outside?"

Lu Qi closed his eyes, the old god said,

"Where did the flowers come from in the winter."

Huo Mingchen sneered habitually when he heard the words, and didn't speak again. Lu Yuan watched from behind, thinking that Lu Qi had made Huo Mingchen angry, so he couldn't help but worry, but when they arrived at the destination, the atmosphere between the two was as usual, and they started to talk each other, but it didn't look like they were in conflict.

The Huo's Building is located in the center of the business district, surrounded by high-rise buildings. It is no exaggeration to say that an inch of land is worth an inch. Lu Qi looked up at this towering building, and suddenly had a feeling that everything would come to nothing.

Huo Mingchen led them in and said to Lu Yuan while waiting for the elevator,

"I'll take you to the personnel department for onboarding. The greeting has already been prepared. Someone will take you through the relevant process. If you encounter any problems at work, you can ask your brother to tell me."

He obviously did his best to look at Lu Qi's face. Lu Yuan nodded slightly, neither humble nor arrogant, but he had already mastered the way of life at a young age. She could see that Huo Mingchen was cold and didn't say much.

"Thank you, Mr. Huo."

This look made Huo Mingchen look a little high.

The appearance and temperament of the three are too good, not to mention that one of them is the chairman's younger brother. Seeing them approaching the elevator, the staff at the front desk couldn't help but get together and whisper together.

"Who is that handsome guy next to Mr. Huo!! He's so handsome, that waist, that leg, my God, he's not worse than a model!"

"The company is bidding for the land over there recently. Will it be an agent sent by Yueke? Seeing that there is a beautiful secretary next to him, the position should not be too low."

In fact, it wasn't just the front desk downstairs. After a few people went upstairs, every place Lu Qi passed would cause a subtle commotion from the female staff.

In his previous life, he occupied a high position in this place, and habitually looked at everything with the eyes of a leader. Wherever his eyes passed, it was silent, causing employees to guess whether there was a personnel change in the upper management, and a new leader was transferred.

Asking someone to lead Lu Yuan to the training process, Huo Mingchen put one hand in his pocket and looked at Lu Qi angrily,

"You can rest assured now?"

He looked at Huo Mingchen for a long time, the smile on his lips concealed a trace of ambiguous romance, and said slowly,

"Leave it to you, what's not to worry about."

Huo Mingchen's heartbeat suddenly missed a beat. He remembered that Huo Mingcheng didn't seem to be in the company today, so he said to Lu Qi,

"Go, go to my office and sit down."

He just felt that there were too many people outside, and he wanted to find a clean place, but Lu Qi deliberately distorted his meaning, and said meaningfully,

"Alright, I haven't tried the office yet..."

Huo Mingchen's footsteps stopped when he heard the words, and he almost fell on the ground. He was about to turn back when his waist suddenly tightened, and then a series of sounds of closing the door and locking the door sounded in his ears.

"Fuck!"

Behind the familiar chest, Huo Mingchen closed his eyes silently, feeling that the belt around his waist had been undone.

"You fucking said I'm brave, I think you're the most courageous."

Lu Qi hugged him from behind, and a hot kiss fell on the back of his ear and neck like a dragonfly. His voice was low and very provocative.

"Don't you want to try in the office?"

Lu Qi joined the Huo family in his last life, and he focused on usurping power and seizing the throne. He had no idea what to do. Rolling the bed with Huo Mingchen was very perfunctory. He fixed a place regularly, but he didn't want to play so much fun.

Huo Mingchen was speechless. He always felt that there were thousands of eyes staring at him through a pane of glass, and he couldn't relax. It was as exciting as cheating.

Lu Qi took him to the back of the desk, raised his arm, and let him sit on it with a little force. There was a small pile of documents beside him. Lu Qi glanced at it and found that it was not important, and waved and swept all of them to the ground.

Huo Mingchen fell on the table, hooked Lu Qi's neck, couldn't help but let out a snort like a kitten, and then felt ashamed, covered his eyelids with the back of his hands, and said nothing.

Lu Qi pulled his hand away, thinking it was really cute, and the two exchanged a lingering kiss,

"Don't be afraid, call it out, you can't hear it outside."

In the past life, the two negotiated in this office when they were at each other's throats. Lu Qi left Huo Mingchen with nothing overnight, and the other party took revenge in a more ruthless way.

Huo Mingchen, who was full of gloom, depression and morbidity, and Huo Mingchen, who was full of youthful eyebrows, Lu Qi still felt that the latter was better.

The lights and shadows above his head are intertwined, and the void changes, as if the scene of the previous life reappeared in the vague, Lu Qi knew that it was all fake, it was his own obsession, he closed his eyes and didn't look at it, just hugged the people below him tightly. Entering his arms, he filled the empty embrace with that warm body little by little.

Huo Mingchen within reach, Huo Mingchen in front of him, this is the real existence.
