The phone kept ringing, and Lu Yao had to stand up and say, "Auntie, you're here to see me. I'm going to answer the phone."
Xu's mother immediately said: "It's okay, it's okay. Go quickly."
Lu Yao returned to Xu Yingjia's room with her cell phone. After closing the door, she answered the call.
"Hello."
"Are you up?" Ji Guanxin's voice came from the mobile phone. Lu Yao heard his voice before. I just feel scared and annoyed. But now, she inexplicably wants to escape.
"Get up." He walked to the bathroom. Lu Yao was instinctively afraid that others would know about her relationship with Ji Guanxin.
Ji Guanxin said: "You woke up so early, I thought you wanted to sleep a little longer."
His tone was relaxed. It was as if I had known her very well for a long time. But Lu Yao was not used to his lack of questions and purposeless words, which made her not sure how to answer.
There was a pause for two seconds. She forced out: "No."
Ji Guanxin asked: "What's wrong with your throat?"
Lu Yao said: "A bit dumb."
Ji Guanxin said: "I heard that I am mute. How can you become mute?"
Lu Yao didn't know why her voice was hoarse. She obviously spoke very little yesterday. Not wanting Ji Guanxin to know that she had met Jian Chengli, she lied: "Maybe it was because of drinking."
Ji Guanxin had no doubt about him. He also said in surprise: "Why did you make your voice hoarse after drinking? Are you allergic to whiskey? You drank it in Zui Chunfeng last time. I didn't see you allergic after waking up."
Lu Yao said: "I don't know."
She used to be lukewarm towards him. Ji Guanxin is used to it. He said: "You are at a friend's house, is it convenient for me to pick you up now?"
Lu Yao had a lot of thoughts in her mind instantly. There are some things she can't escape. For example, there is still a lack of resolution between him and Ji Guanxin.
What Xu Yingjia said about going shopping to get her hair dyed was just to tease her into saying a few more words. There was chaos outside right now, and she didn't want Xu Yingjia to appear on the news and disturb her normal life.
So after thinking about it, Lu Yao replied softly: "Can you come to the Central Square?"
Ji Guanxin quickly replied: "Okay, when will you go out?"
Lu Yao said: "I'll be there in fifteen minutes."
Ji Guanxin said: "Okay, I'll go over now. If you arrive first, wait for me for a while."
"Um."
The two said a few words, and Lu Yao hung up the phone. When he raised his eyes, he happened to see himself in the mirror. He had not slept all night, and his face was pale. The two big eyes behind the glasses were now one-third smaller, and the eyelids were tight.
She is not a person who likes to be pretty. In the past, unless it was Jian Chengli's birthday or he sincerely invited her to go out with him for something, she would put on makeup when she was in a good mood, and she would stay bare-faced the rest of the time.
But today she put on makeup, obviously not to please Ji Guanxin, she just didn't want Ji Guanxin to see that she was crying, and then doubt what happened when she was in a hurry to come back last night.
If she could dispel his doubts in the simplest way, she would still be willing to pretend.
Standing in the bathroom, Lu Yao simply put on makeup on her face, mainly eye makeup. Xu Yingjia said that Lu Yao was born with dexterity and could learn anything immediately. Take makeup as an example. Xu Yingjia had been doing makeup since junior high school, but now she still needs Lu Yao's help to draw her eyebrows. Lu Yao can count on her fingers the number of times she puts on makeup throughout the year, but whenever she is serious and considerate, she can always do much better than ordinary people.
Less than five minutes later, Lu Yao looked at herself in the mirror again. Her eyes, which were covered with double eyelid stickers and eye shadow, returned to their previous size. The eyeliner and mascara made these originally innocent eyes become mature and charming. .
She rarely wears heavy makeup. To match her eyes, she used Xu Yingjia's lipstick and applied a bean paste-colored retro red lip.
Lu Yao took out a knee-length wrap skirt from the cabinet and put it on, then came out of the room.
Xu Yingjia and Xu's mother both raised their eyes to look at her. The former looked surprised, while the latter asked aloud: "Yao Yao, do you want to go out?"
Lu Yao wore colored contact lenses, which made her pupils look bright and lively. Smiling slightly, she replied: "Auntie, I have an appointment and I have to leave first. You and Jiajia can eat together."
Xu's mother and Xu Yingjia stood up to see her off. Lu Yao hurriedly said, "Auntie, please eat quickly. There is no need to see her off."
Xu Yingjia followed Lu Yao to the door. When she saw Lu Yao lowered her head and put on black flat shoes, she lowered her voice and said, "Are you going to see Ji Guanxin?"
"Yes." Lu Yao lowered her head, her long hair falling down her ears. Even Xu Yingjia was heartbroken when she saw this.
Gudong swallowed, and Xu Yingjia said: "What does he want you to do?"
Xu Yingjia instinctively thought that Ji Guanxin made some request to Lu Yao, so Lu Yao dressed up like this.
Lu Yao put on her shoes and said softly: "It's nothing. If I don't come back tonight, I will call you."
When Xu Yingjia heard this, her heart was extremely turbulent.
Lu Yao didn't give Xu Yingjia a chance to ask any more questions. She raised her voice slightly and said to Xu's mother in the room: "Auntie, I'm leaving."
Xu's mother immediately returned: "Hey, go ahead and be careful on the road. Don't come back too late at night. It's not safe."
"good."
Lu Yao left Xu's house, went downstairs and stopped a taxi on the street.
After getting in the car, she said: "Central Square."
The driver looked at Lu Yao in the rearview mirror. In fact, she was dressed very conservatively. A black wrap skirt covered everything from the middle of her neck to her knees. Only her arms and calves were exposed.
But because Lu Yao has such a good figure, with a curvy front and back, and her beautiful face with exquisite makeup, it is inevitable that men will have wild imaginations.
Lu Yao didn't notice the driver's peek. She just turned her head and looked out the window in a daze. Therefore, the silver-gray Mercedes-Benz sports car following a few meters behind the taxi was not noticed.
Xu's home is only six or seven minutes' walk from the Central Square, and it can be reached in a blink of an eye by taking a taxi. Lu Yao gave money and got out of the car. The driver took the opportunity to change the money and looked back at her openly.
This is so beautiful, much prettier than those female stars. After Lu Yao got out of the car, the male driver still stared at her back reluctantly, wondering what kind of man she would find to be worthy of such a beautiful woman.
Lu Yao was walking in the central square. It was just seven o'clock in the morning. There were not many people in the square, but everyone who saw Lu Yao, no matter men, women, old or young, always had to look twice.
Faces are not the only thing in today's world. Since ancient times, everyone has loved beauty, and no one likes ugly things.
Lu Yao didn't bring her mobile phone or watch, but she estimated that it would be around fifteen minutes.
She walked to the huge fountain in the middle of the square. There were a few people sitting on the outer edge of the pool. There are old people who have just finished their morning exercise, and there are also middle-aged people who got up early and went out to walk their dogs.
Not long after Lu Yao sat down, a white Samoyed ran towards her. The big snow-white dog stuck out its tongue, as if smiling at her.
The corners of Lu Yao's lips raised slightly, and she reached out to touch its ears.
The big dog's ears were pushed back on his head, and he took two steps forward, as if he was deliberately trying to get close to her. Lu Yao touched the top of its head but smiled silently.
After a while, a middle-aged man wearing a white half-sleeved T-shirt came over. He looked at Lu Yao with a smile and said, "Snowball didn't bother you, did it?"
Lu Yao raised her head and replied with a faint smile: "No."
When he raised his eyes, the man felt that everything around him seemed to be still. There is a kind of beauty that amazes time and can make people forget themselves.
After looking at Lu Yao in a daze for three seconds, the man adjusted his expression without any trace and continued: "Xueqiu likes to play with girls. I can't control it. It's hard to change his nature."
Lu Yao lowered her gaze, lowered her head and touched the big dog beside her legs. Out of politeness, she responded: "It's quite cute."
The man walked over and sat one person away from Lu Yao. He said aloud: "Come here so early, are you doing morning exercises or going to work?"
Lu Yao said: "Waiting for someone."
The man smiled and asked, "Are you waiting for your boyfriend?"
Lu Yao thought about Ji Guanxin and then about their current relationship. She was silent for a few seconds, but she still didn't deny it.
The man took out a business card from his pocket, handed it to Lu Yao, and said, "I don't know where you are employed. Our company is recruiting staff recently. If you are interested, you can come and have a look."
The business card had been handed to her, and Lu Yao could only nod, reach out and take it: "Thank you."
When he lowered his head, he saw that he was the chairman of a real estate company. Lu Yao had also heard of this company, which was quite large.
The man looked at Lu Yao with admiration in his eyes. He asked, "I wonder what you call her?"
He was more than 20 years older than Lu Yao, but he always used the word 'you' in his mouth. Lu Yao couldn't help but offend him, so she could only reply aloud: "My surname is Lu."
The man smiled: "Oh, Miss Lu. I'm trying to recruit a life assistant recently. I don't have many working hours on weekdays, and I don't have to go to the company to work. I only occasionally go on business trips with me. The monthly salary starts at six figures, and there is still more at the end of the year. As for the dividends, the company will reimburse all your outings and travel expenses. I wonder if you are interested?"
Lu Yao is not a fool. No matter how gentle the man's tone is and how humble his attitude is, the dirty content cannot be concealed.
What kind of life assistant? It's clear that he has a mistress to keep by his side.
Just as Lu Yao was about to refuse, she heard a familiar male voice: "Why is the job paying so well? Are you hiring men?"
Lu Yao looked up and saw that the person walking two meters away was Ji Guanxin.
He was wearing a light brown striped shirt from Givenchy, solid color casual trousers, and a pair of moccasins. The Aston Martin car keys are still hanging between the fingers of his right hand.
There was a smile on his handsome face, but both Lu Yao and the chairman of the real estate company could tell at a glance that he came with bad intentions.
Sure enough, Ji Guanxin walked up to Lu Yao and the man, lifted up his pants, and sat down between them, the only empty seat.
Lu Yao was inexplicably nervous, feeling like she had done something wrong.
Ji Guanxin did not look at her, but looked sideways at the embarrassed middle-aged man on the right. He smiled and said: "Director Han, you are in a good mood. You came here so cool early in the morning, even walking the dog and picking up girls. Nothing is missing.”
