Bow to tempt the peach

Chapter 24
The commotion outside attracted the park security guards, and Xu Youtao followed to join in the fun, only to discover that a worker cleaning the outer wall accidentally dropped the cleaning tools from a high altitude.

The security guard and the worker in charge had an argument, and Xu Youtao was left with lingering fears.

Fortunately she wasn't outside just now, and fortunately Fu Ling and Du Yan had already left early.

When she returned to the lobby, she discovered the emoticon she had just sent out because her hands were shaking.

Xu Youtao:! ! !

She immediately wanted to withdraw the message, but found that 2 minutes had passed and she could not withdraw it!

Help!

She covered her face in embarrassment.

Did Lu Chenyan think she had a seizure?
……

At the same time, it was such an unlucky coincidence.

Lu Chenyan, who was having an online video conference, saw this emoticon almost the second after it was sent.

Then in front of everyone, the subordinates of the branch discovered the fact that their president was distracted.

Lu Chenyan stared at the screen of his mobile phone. There was no emotional change on his face, but his eyes were dark.

What is Xu Youtao's intention?
Mr. Lu, who had always been strategizing, was confused for the first time.

The suggestive meaning of this emoticon was so strong that it had to make him suspicious.

Though his mind was spinning, reason finally prevailed.

Probably sent by mistake.

Lu Chenyan was so distracted that no one dared to urge him.

Everyone exchanged glances quietly, feeling very uneasy. Could it be that there was something wrong with their work?
One second, two seconds...1 minute, 2 minutes.

The meme was not withdrawn.

The mistaken speculation was immediately given up. Lu Chenyan was in a slightly subtle mood and had some unexplainable thoughts. Even the chill between his brows and eyes dissipated a bit.

Tsk, you knew Xu Youtao was duplicitous and couldn't resist his charm. She hadn't contacted him for a few days and yet she was nakedly seducing him.

Lu Chenyan's mood became excited for no reason. He put away his phone and decided to deal with work first, perfectly missing the message of explanation sent by Xu Youtao.

The meeting continued, and everyone was astutely aware that their boss suddenly became easy to talk to.

In the creative park, Xu Youtao paced anxiously after receiving no reply for half a day after sending out a message to explain.

Did Lu Chenyan see it?

He wouldn't think she did it on purpose, would he?
"Ah~"

She turned to her best friend and complained about the stupid things she had done.

Zhou Yao replied in seconds: [Hahahahahahahaha! 】

Zhou Yao: [Xu Xiaotao, you are brave enough. 】

Xu Youtao: [Hands shaking! ! ! 】

Zhou Yao: [People may not believe it, they may think you are up to no good. 】

Xu Youtao wanted to cry but had no tears. She was afraid that Lu Chenyan would think so.

She originally expected Zhou Yao to comfort her, but the more she talked, the more depressed she became, so she had to mention the dinner party in a hesitant manner.

Zhou Yao also became serious, [Just go by yourself? 】

Zhou Yao: [Let’s bring Fu Ling and Du Yan with us. 】

Zhou Yao: [I will be on duty tonight, otherwise I will accompany you. 】

Xu Youtao thought for two seconds and gave up contacting Fu Ling and the others.

In the past two days, she had been hearing Fu Ling talk about a popular restaurant that had become popular in Shanghai recently, and they would most likely go on a date in the evening.

She typed slowly, [Don't worry, I'm fine. 】Zhou Yao did not try to persuade her any more. Her years of experience told her that if a blind man provokes Xu Youtao, they will always be beaten.

She had no choice but to tell Xu Youtao not to drink excessively.

Xu Youtao replied with a nice word, looked at the chat page with Lu Chenyan again, and had no choice but to put away her cell phone and return to her work.
-
At around five o'clock in the afternoon, the finishing work was completely completed.

Xu Youtao checked it one last time before gathering the tools slowly.

It wasn't until she changed her clothes and got into a taxi that she had time to take out her phone and read the news.

Lu Chenyan finally replied, a concise and to the point "Ha", and it was as if she could hear his disdainful sneer in her ear.

Xu Youtao had no choice but to hold her forehead and explain what happened in the afternoon in detail. Everything was an accident.

After the news was sent out, it fell into a state of silence again.

She had no choice but to put this matter aside for the time being and brace herself for the evening meal.

The taxi arrived at the restaurant where we ate. It was a private restaurant with a Jiangnan garden style, with a gray roof and white walls, a small bridge and flowing water. It seemed to transport people into the misty Jiangnan water town, and it was full of artistic conception.

The large-scale restaurant is located in the bustling center of Shanghai, where land is at a premium. This gives a glimpse of the strong financial strength of the owner behind the restaurant.

Xu Youtao was jealous with envy.

"Miss, we're here." The waiter in simple Chinese clothing reminded.

Xu Youtao came back to her senses and saw the sign hanging in front of her. Tingzhuxuan was the appointed box.

"Thank you." She curved her lips and said thank you, then opened the box door.

The two men who were chatting in the box looked over. One was about thirty years old, wearing black-rimmed glasses, ordinary-looking but energetic.

There is also a man who is probably in his early forties and looks very smart and capable.

Xu Youtao immediately confirmed the identities of the two people. The younger one was Yang Cheng, a friend of senior Li Yuyang, and the other should be Gong Tao, the person in charge of the chain restaurant's renovation.

"Brother Yang, Manager Gong." She took the lead in greeting, with a perfect smile on her face.

Yang Cheng and Gong Tao had the same surprise on their faces, as if they didn't expect the head of a branch to be so young and beautiful.

Xu Youtao didn't even dress up deliberately today, but even though she was naked, her bright face and good figure were still eye-catching.

"Mr. Xu." Gong Tao's enthusiastic look was almost completely different from before.

Yang Cheng couldn't help but glance at Xu Youtao worriedly.

Li Yuyang didn't tell himself that his elementary school girl was so beautiful, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to handle her alone later.

However, he was soon slapped in the face.

Xu Youtao spoke and acted impeccably, and even when drinking, she was no worse than the two men present.

Yang Cheng put away his unspoken contempt and helped Xu Youtao and Gong Tao deal with each other.

After drinking glass after glass of wine, even Xu Youtao, who had a good capacity for drinking, began to feel dizzy.

Gong Tao and Yang Cheng were even more staggering.

"Hiccup~" Gong Tao was drunk and his speech was slurred, "Xu... Mr. Xu has a good drinker, a good drinker, I will make you my friend!"

"You are beautiful and capable. I can rest assured that I will hand it over to you!"

Xu Youtao took out the contract politely and kept saying all kinds of compliments.

Gong Tao always had a good face, his face glowed with praise, and he signed the preliminary letter of intent happily.

Xu Youtao carefully put away the letter of intent, forced herself to pay the bill, and then put the two drunkards into the taxi with the waiter.

After everything was over, the discomfort she had suppressed came over her like a mountain, and the burning sensation in her stomach was unbearable.

"Miss, do you need to go to the bathroom?" the waiter asked thoughtfully.

Xu Youtao covered her mouth and nodded.
