Bow to tempt the peach

Ten minutes before leaving get off work, Zhang Mingyang went to the CEO's office because of Lu Chenyan's WeChat message.

He held the phone with an expression of disbelief on his face, "Are you serious?"

“Want to invest in a coffee shop?”

Lu Chenyan was noncommittal, "You can memorize it first."

Zhang Mingyang: "..."

He was silent for a while and said in a serious tone: "Fortunately, you didn't fall in love when I started my business."

"Otherwise I'm afraid I'll lose all my money."

Lu Chenyan was in a good mood and didn't bother to argue with him.

He picked up his phone and was about to send a message to Xu Youtao. The next second, the slightly raised corners of his lips pursed into a straight line.

On WeChat, Xu Youtao sent the message first.

Xu Youtao: [Brother, I have something to do at work, so I can’t have dinner with you. 】

Xu Youtao: [Kitten rolling.jpg.]

Lu Chenyan typed with a cold face, [What happened? 】

Xu Youtao: [I need to have dinner with the Party A of my next job to talk about the new job. 】

She was typing with her head down as she walked towards the subway station.

Two minutes ago, Wu Huanya suddenly sent her a message to make an appointment for dinner, saying that some details of the mural design needed to be discussed.

She couldn't refuse. Because of her new job, she should have invited him to a meal.

He had no choice but to let go of Lu Chenyan's dove.

Lu Chenyan looked worried, and Zhang Mingyang, who was still chattering away, subconsciously kept silent.

He tapped the screen with his long fingers, [Okay, send me a message after dinner and I will pick you up. 】

Xu Youtao: [Kiss.jpg]

The expression on Lu Chenyan's face did not improve because of this emoticon. He put down his phone and glanced at Zhang Mingyang, suddenly feeling that he was an eyesore.

"go out."

Zhang Mingyang: "?"

"Did I offend you again?" He was dissatisfied.

Lu Chenyan picked up the chip investment analysis report on the table without raising his head, "I want to work."

The beautiful sunshine outside the window shone on the side of his face through the floor-to-ceiling windows, but it did not melt the indifferent temperament on his body at all.

Visible to the naked eye, Lu Chenyan was in a bad mood.

However, Zhang Mingyang was embarrassed and gloated, "Huh? Do you want to work overtime?"

"No date tonight?"

God knows how jealous he was when he heard his assistant say that Mr. Lu got off work on time again when he was working overtime these days.

He worked all night long and couldn't even squeeze in time to pick up girls. The thought of Lu Chenyan being sweetly in love made him vomit until he almost vomited blood. Without comparison, there would be no harm.

Lu Chenyan responded to Zhang Mingyang with a cold expression. It was clearly still early autumn, but it made him feel like he was in the cold winter for a moment.

He immediately surrendered and raised his hand in front of his mouth to make a zipper motion.

You can't mess with a man who doesn't have a girlfriend by his side.

In the secretary's office, Zhao Jin and Li Shang were not in a good mood either.

Seeing that it was already six o'clock in the evening, the door to the CEO's office was still closed. Everyone silently prayed in their hearts that they could get off work on time today.

However, Zhang Mingyang gleefully extinguished their hopes.

"Your boss has no date tonight and has to work overtime."

After saying this, he left feeling refreshed.

Although he still had to work overtime today, the feeling of having someone with him was still different.

Everyone in the secretary's office looked at each other with disappointment on their faces.

In the end, I had no choice but to accept the reality of having to work overtime.

...On the subway during the evening rush hour, it is almost crowded.

Xu Youtao didn't know that because she missed her appointment at short notice, many people were forced to work overtime.

She was sending a message to Fang Mengying who was far away in Beijing, asking about Wu Huanya.

Xu Youtao: [Sister Mengying, are you the matchmaker here with Senior Wu? 】

Fang Mengying: [Wu Huanya?It wasn’t me. She and I lost contact after graduation. 】

Not Fang Mengying?
Xu Youtao frowned, then why would Wu Huanya think of looking for her?They also offered a price that was much higher than the market price.

She was too happy last week and didn't think much about it, but when she thought about it carefully, there was something wrong with it.

She and Wu Huanya were not familiar with each other when they were in college. There was no need for the other party to sacrifice so much. It was like giving her money in vain.

Xu Youtao thought for a long time and couldn't figure it out. She just wanted to keep her doubts in her heart for the time being and planned to ask about it later while eating.

Once you have it figured out, you will feel at ease.

……

The restaurant for dinner was chosen by Wu Huanya, and we made an appointment at a Korean restaurant.

As soon as Xu Youtao walked into the store, she saw Wu Huanya waving to her enthusiastically.

She pursed her lips and smiled quietly, then walked over.

"Sister."

"Xiao Tao, sit down quickly." Wu Huanya smiled, a bit flattering.

"I've wanted to have a meal with you for a long time, but my fiancé and I have been busy with the engagement these days and really haven't found the time." As she said that, she flipped up her hair and showed off the bracelet on her left ring finger. diamond ring on.

Xu Youtao was surprised.

"Senior, are you engaged?"

"Why didn't you tell me? I should be happy."

Wu Huanya smiled and poured her a glass of lemonade, "It's just a gathering of our relatives and friends, nothing big."

"I will definitely send you an invitation when I wait for the wedding."

She was in high spirits during happy events, and she spilled the beans, "It's all thanks to you that my boyfriend and I are successful."

Because of her introduction, her fiancé's family concluded a business deal with the catering Cheng family. Her fiancé's family was impressed by her and finally agreed to their deal.

Xu Youtao immediately noticed something was wrong, "Thanks to me?"

She smiled, but the smile didn't reach her eyes, "Senior, why did you get involved with me?"

Wu Huanya's movement of drinking water froze, and then quickly returned to normal.

She smirked, "Look at me, I made a mistake. I showed some of your previous murals to my fiancé's family. They praised me for my good taste and they were even more satisfied with me."

The waiter came with a cart to serve the food, and the Sukiyaki platter in the brass pot was placed on the alcohol stove, accompanied by the sound of gurgling and mist rising.

The mist obscured the guilty look on Wu Huanya's face. She stiffly changed the subject, "This Korean food shop has a very high rating online. Please try it quickly."

Xu Youtao lowered his head and said nothing.

Her hand holding the chopsticks was slightly firm, and a touch of white appeared on her fingertips.

After a moment, she smiled slightly and said, "Okay."

Of course she heard that Wu Huanya's words were full of loopholes, and she was even more sure that she had an ulterior motive for suddenly looking for her, but sometimes, not breaking the surface is a more appropriate way to deal with adult interactions.

The enticing aroma of the Sukiyaki pot spread as the bottom of the pot boiled, but Xu Youtao had an inexplicable loss of appetite.

She suddenly regretted letting Lu Chenyan go to this dinner. Just as she was thinking about it, the screen of her mobile phone beside her suddenly lit up, and a new message popped up, which was sent by Lu Chenyan.

Lu Chenyan: [Are you eating?Have you been drinking? 】

A smile that she didn't even notice broke out on Xu Youtao's face, and her boredom was swept away.

She put down her chopsticks and typed.

Xu Youtao: [I’m eating, brother, I didn’t drink. 】
