"It's the sign of the road."
Yan Liang didn't know why, but she always felt that she could read a hint of ruthlessness from the man's indifferent tone. This feeling, which was almost an illusion, seized her for a few seconds, until she saw Jiang Nan turn around as if nothing had happened and was about to walk into the bathroom, Yan Liang Only then came back to his senses, and quickly called him: "What did he say?"
Jiang Nan couldn't help but stop when he heard the words.
Lowering his eyes, he seemed to think back, as if he had thought of something extremely ridiculous, he raised the corner of his mouth mockingly, and said, "It is said that I came back to China specially for Miss Yan, and I want to meet and talk with Miss Yan in detail."
But when Yanliang took a closer look, the sneer at the corner of the man's mouth had already vanished, leaving no trace.
Yanliang has no time to care about these things, although last night she kept saying that she would not bother to clean up this mess, but now, Yanliang's mind is full of the three-day agreement between herself and Lu Zheng—the duplicity Miss Yan immediately got out of bed and walked towards the door of the bedroom After walking, I didn't even have time to put on my slippers, so I ran to the living room with bare feet, picked up the landline next to the sofa and on the low table, called up Lu Zheng's call records, and called back.
As soon as the outgoing call was connected, before the other party had time to speak, Yan Liang, who was extremely eager, had already reported his family name first: "Mr. Lu, I am Yan Liang."
Lu Zheng seemed to have expected that she would call, without the slightest surprise, hearing her humble and eager tone, he was also very decisive, and said directly: "I am still on the expressway, and I will arrive at the city in about 20 minutes. district."
airport Express
Yanliang didn't expect it, did this person call right after getting off the plane
It's ridiculous and helpless, even a little shameful: she gave this Mr. Lu a cold face before, especially the time when Xu Jinfu invited Lu Zheng to Xu's family banquet. Now that the feng shui is taking turns, it is she who is asking for help from others, and she wishes that Mr. Lu's attitude could be more considerate, but Yan Liang herself must be more sincere, more sincere: "I will go to the headquarters of Mingting to wait for you now." .”
Yan Liang was about to hang up, but at this moment he heard Lu Zheng say: "I haven't had breakfast yet. See you later."
"Which club?"
Lu Zheng's voice paused, as if he had thought of some interesting things, and then Lu Zheng's chuckle came from the receiver: "Miss Yan hired someone to follow my itinerary before, so she should know which clubhouse I like best for breakfast."
After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone, Liu Yanliang stood beside the sofa and thought about it for two seconds, then suddenly realized, and immediately ran back to the bedroom.
After washing at the fastest speed, Yan Liang rushed straight into the cloakroom to change clothes. Jiang Nan was standing in front of a mirror halfway up the wall, putting on his tie. When he heard the movement, he turned his head and glanced at Yan Liang, and said with a smile, "Who said yesterday that he didn't want to say anything?" Got it?"
Yan Liang had just changed into a woolen skirt, and was on tiptoe looking for high-heeled shoes in the entire row of shoe cabinets: "This is the painstaking effort of three generations of our Xu family, and it's not something you can just let go of."
When the voice fell, Yan Liang had already found the shoes. She held the shoes with one hand, and pulled the coat on the hanger with the other, and ran towards the door of the cloakroom without saying a word.
After running for two steps, I realized that there was still something to do, so I turned back in a hurry, rushed back to Jiang Nan, grabbed his tie, stepped up my feet, and after getting closer to each other, imprinted loudly on his lips. A kiss: "Husband, come on!"
Jiang Nan was taken aback. With a smile: "My wife, come on."
Soon Jiang Nan watched the figure of this woman disappear by the door, and he quickly fastened his tie. The suit jacket was hung in the closet on his left. Among the suit jackets, he chose casually. But at this moment...
In the silent cloakroom, this man's unexpected outburst was ushered in——
"boom--!"
During the continuous ping-pong sound, almost half of the suit in the man's hand was thrown to the ground by him. Followed by another loud "bang!"
Jiang Nan's fist hit the mirror so hard, so decisively, leaving no room for it. While the mirror shattered, the pain invaded every blood vessel through the back of the man's bleeding hand, and finally reached the heart, penetrating everywhere.
There is a reflection of him on every shard.
A fragmented, invisible him...
When Yan Liang came to this club under Ming Ting, the waiter should have already received the notice, and said: "Ms Yan, good morning." Then he led her to the table.
Looking at the menu handed to her, Yan Liang waved her hand: "I'll order when Mr. Lu comes."
The waiter smiled and said, "Boss Lu said that Ms. Yan can eat first."
Yan Liang was impatient, so she ordered a drink casually, and then handed the menu back to the waiter. After the coffee was brought to the table, she didn't even look at it, she just kept raising her wrist to check the time on the watch.
After more than ten minutes, Lu Zheng finally arrived late.
As soon as Lu Zheng entered the door, he saw the woman who was looking down at the watch. After a pause, he quickened his pace and approached.
Yan Liang also found Lu Zheng immediately, and immediately bowed slightly to him.
"I've been waiting for a long time." Lu Zheng said as he sat down, "I went home and took a shower and changed my clothes. It shouldn't be too late."
This is a man who pays great attention to his appearance, Yanliang shook his head to express that he doesn't mind, he is willing to meet with him, he is already grateful, how dare he blame him
Yan Liang bit her lower lip involuntarily, and after making up her mind, she stood up and bowed ninety degrees to Lu Zheng: "Yayan's matter is too big, it has already escaped my control, I said before that three days can be done Got it, obviously I overestimated myself and underestimated the situation, sorry."
When Yanliang said this, he deliberately paused, waiting for Lu Zheng to express his opinion. Or make fun of her, or leave the table angrily, or hesitate to give her another chance...
But obviously Lu Zheng wanted to hear her more, so he continued to remain silent. Yanliang could only bite the bullet and continue: "I know I failed this time, but I want to ask Mr. Lu to give me a little more time to give Yayan another chance..."
"Who said you failed?" Lu Zheng interrupted her suddenly.
Yan Liang was taken aback.
She was still bowing, but from the corner of her eye she saw Lu Zheng stand up.
Not only did he stand up, he even picked up Yan Liang's coat hanging behind the chair. Yanliang straightened her body, and looked at Lu Zheng for no reason.
Lu Zheng handed her the coat back, raised his chin towards the exit of the clubhouse, and signaled Yanliang to follow him.
Yan Liang was even more puzzled: "Where are you going?"
"Eat Brunch."
Lu Zheng didn't explain much, and after speaking, he took the lead and walked towards the exit.
Yan Liang, who was at a loss, saw him going further and further away, so he could only keep up quickly.
Not long after, Yanliang and Lu Zheng went to a restaurant that serves the most authentic brunch in the city.
Less than a 5-minute walk from Ming Ting's clubhouse, this restaurant is known for its buffet-style brunch. Many dignitaries in the city love to come here for consumption, the delicious food is one of the reasons, and the more important reason is that they are likely to negotiate a big deal in the middle of drinking——
When the waiter saw them, he immediately said, "Mr. Lu."
It is not the first time for Yanliang to come here, and he understands the truth that dining here means unlimited business opportunities. She looked at Lu Zheng, and it seemed... Somewhat understood his purpose for bringing her here.
Lu Zheng looked back at Yan Liang, and bent his arms slightly, which was a silent gesture - Yan Liang understood, he hesitated for a while, and then stretched out his hand to hold his arm.
They walked into the restaurant together.
As soon as the two entered the door, they attracted a lot of sideways glances.
The people who were still chatting happily at first seemed to have quieted down in an instant. Everyone seemed to have the same question written on their faces: Who appeared with Lu Zheng... the second lady of the Xu family, who is now riddled with scandals and unprecedentedly down-and-out
Yanliang glanced at the venue and saw many acquaintances, among them the man closest to her and Lu Zheng was Ding Chenhai, the largest cosmetics retailer in China.
In Ding Chenhai's stores all over the country, Yayan's products worth more than 10 million yuan have been removed from the shelves this time.
Everything Yanliang saw at this moment forced her to bite the bullet and hold Lu Zheng's arm firmly, but when she finally summoned up the courage to perform a good show, Lu Zheng stopped suddenly step.
"Before I gamble on the prestige of my Lu family to help you turn the tables, I want to ask a personal question." He said.
The cold mood can no longer be described as uneasy. Appearing in front of these people together with Lu Zheng means showing to all friends and enemies in the mall that the Xu family will not collapse, at least not in today's time with the backing of Ming Ting.
Because of this, Yanliang was very absent-minded about the abrupt question Lu Zheng raised at this moment, and just asked casually: "What?"
Lu Zheng's expression paused, as if he was a bit embarrassed to speak, but he quickly returned to his normal look: "The relationship between you and Jiang Nan seems to be closer than I guessed before..."
Yan Liang was startled.
Finally regaining his sanity, he turned his head to look at Lu Zheng.
Looking at this woman's expression, Lu Zheng had an answer faintly, looking at each other in silence for a second - two seconds - three seconds
——
Three seconds later, Lu Zheng suddenly smiled and said: "Forget it, I still don't ask."
Yanliang thought for a while, then said: "I..."
Lu Zheng immediately interrupted her: "If you say so, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it, so I will turn around and leave immediately."
This warning was very effective, Yanliang completely silenced immediately.
Lu Zheng seemed very satisfied with her reaction, and after smiling at her, he took her to meet Ding Chenhai who was walking towards them.
Ding Chenhai greeted warmly: "Morning, Mr. Lu! Good morning..." The meaningful pause and pointed eyes all turned to the woman beside Lu Zheng, "...Miss Yan."—
