Chapter 31
A Sudden Encounter
“Lu Yunxiao, you did it on purpose, right?” Jiang Youyi pulled Lu Yunxiao aside with a smile in front of the waiter. She gritted her teeth and said, “Aren’t you the richest man? The richest man!”
“Yes, why?”
“So the richest man usually gets a woman to treat him to a meal? Is this how you accumulate your wealth?”
“That’s not it.” Lu Yunxiao chuckled. “But I saved you today. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have had the chance to sit here and eat Japanese food leisurely. Instead, you were hit on the head by those crazy fans. Jiang Youyi, you have to know how to repay kindness.”
Fine, so he was waiting for her here?!
Jiang Youyi gritted her teeth secretly. “Alright, alright. So you’re waiting for me here. I knew you wouldn’t be so kind as to save me. So you want me to treat you to such an expensive meal!”
“Hurry up and pay the bill. I still have to go back to the company later.” He was even impatient.
Jiang Youyi handed the cell phone’s receipt code to the waiter. “I’ll pay on WeChat. Sorry to trouble you.”
“It’s no trouble. It’s what I should do.” After the waiter received the money, he nodded politely at them.
Lu Yunxiao turned around and left. Jiang Youyi followed him obediently. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. “I finally know why you’re single. So it’s because you are stingy. What woman would like a stingy man? Don’t tell me you want to find a rich woman in the future and let her support you? As your working partner, I advise you not to dream about it.”
Lu Yunxiao suddenly stopped and turned to look at her. The corners of his lips curled up. “Didn’t I already find her?”
“…” Jiang Youyi was so angry that she didn’t know how to refute. She was really an idiot. She spent more than 2,000 yuan to treat him to a meal of Japanese food. The problem was that she usually couldn’t bear to eat such expensive Japanese food!
“You win. Lu Yunxiao, just you wait!”
At the entrance of the Japanese restaurant.
“I have to go back to the company for a meeting, so it’s not convenient for me to send you. Call a taxi yourself, or take the subway. There’s a subway station about a kilometer away from here.”
“You’re good. You burned the bridge after crossing the river, right? After scamming me for a meal, you didn’t even pretend when you went out. You weren’t even willing to send me home!”
“You said it yourself. I didn’t say you were a bridge.”
“Is this the main point?” She looked at Lu Yunxiao with a murderous intent.
Lu Yunxiao didn’t answer anymore. He got into his Maybach with his long legs. Jiang Youyi squeezed into the back seat too. Moreover, because she used too much strength, she almost pounced onto a certain unprepared big shot in the car.
“Your house is in a different direction from my company. It’s not on the way,” Lu Yunxiao emphasized.
“I don’t have to go home. Anyway, it’s still early. I’ll go wherever you go. I’ll definitely freeload on this car today! President Lu, don’t tell me you can’t even bear to part with this bit of gas money?”
There was a strange silence in the car for a long time. Lu Yunxiao smiled helplessly.
“What are you laughing at?”
“It’s nothing. Let’s drive.” Lu Yunxiao did not expect Jiang Youyi to follow him to the company. He saw her sitting at the side, sulking because he had cheated her of a meal. Needless to say, this girl was really funny.
Qihe Corporation, the headquarters of the Lu Family. It had more than 10 branches and its own private bank. Over the years, its business had spread all over the country.
The news that Lu Yunxiao had brought a beautiful girl back to the company quickly spread within the company building. Someone even leaked the news to the paparazzi. Half an hour later, a report appeared on the Internet. “The president of Qihe Corporation, Lu Yunxiao, brought his rumored girlfriend, Jiang Youyi, back to the company. It’s suspected that something good is about to happen.”
That afternoon, in a cafe.
“Bingbing, why do you have time to ask me out for coffee? Haven’t you been busy with work recently?” Du Meihong looked at the young and beautiful woman in a business suit opposite her with a smile.
“Aunt Meihong, I won’t beat around the bush with you. I called you out today to ask what’s going on between Brother Yunxiao and that woman.”
“Ah—ask that young lady from the Jiang Family.” Actually, Du Meihong knew very well why Bai Bing suddenly invited her out for coffee today. After all, Bai Bing and Lu Yunxiao had known each other since they were in their teens. The elders knew of her feelings for Lu Yunxiao. The reason why no one had ever said it out loud was that Lu Yunxiao had never accepted Bai Bing’s goodwill. However, Lu Yunxiao’s father had always set his mind on this daughter-in-law. Bai Bing came from a good family background and had an impeccable job and appearance.
No one expected Jiang Youyi to appear halfway.
