"It's getting late, you can get off work." Shen Muting said quietly.

Shen Lu glanced at him, "What about you?"

"I'll drive back after reading this document. Don't worry about me. You can get off work. Traveling with me on business has been hard during this period." After Shen Muting finished speaking, he continued to read the document.

Shen Lu didn't say anything else. He left the president's office, went back to his own office, closed the computer, packed up briefly and left Boyuan Group.

the next day.

Li Man and her grandma took their bags and got ready to go to work after breakfast.

After exiting the door, she walked towards the elevator and saw a somewhat familiar silhouette.

Li Man said in disbelief, "Assistant Shen?"

Shen Lu didn't expect to see Li Man here, and was surprised for a moment, but he quickly returned to the gentlemanly and well-measured demeanor he had at work before, "Miss Li, what a coincidence. When did you move here?"

"I just moved here two days ago. I didn't expect that by such a coincidence, I would be your neighbor." Li Man smiled.

Getting along with Shen Lu is not as stressful as facing Shen Muting.

Li Man greeted him openly and chatted.

Shen Lu nodded, "It's a coincidence. I've lived here for more than three years. It's close to the company and it's very convenient to commute to get off work."

"Indeed." Li Man agreed, and then sighed, "Everything about this community is good, but the rent is not cheap."

Shen Lu's pupils trembled in shock.

rental?

He was originally shocked that the young lady lived here, but he didn't expect to rent it!

Is Master Jiu crazy?

He never felt that Jiuye was stingy. After all, Boyuan's employees' salaries and benefits were the highest among the same positions in the same industry. Of course, Boyuan's threshold was also the highest.

But when it comes to treating women, Master Jiu is not ordinary stingy. He is simply an embarrassment to men. First he pretended to be poor, and now he is still getting divorced without giving any financial compensation. Miss Li is even reduced to renting a house.

Master Jiu has numerous properties in Jiangzhou, so it would not be like this if he just gives Miss Li one of them.

If it hadn't been for some unforeseen circumstances at that time, Master Jiu would probably have been single and died alone.

Master Jiu should not be called Shen Muting, but Shen Stingymen.

Too stingy, evil capitalist.

Shen Lu couldn't help but defend Li Man, but he didn't show any strangeness on his face. He pushed up the silver-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose and said with a warm smile, "Indeed, I didn't expect that by such a coincidence, we would become neighbors. Another day I’ll treat you to dinner when I have time.”

Li Man thought he was just saying polite words and agreed casually, "Okay, then we won't be polite."

Many people are like this. They say they will treat you to dinner next time, but the next time is far away. They say they are free to treat you to dinner, but they are never available. It is just a polite word, so Li Man agreed without really thinking about it. Lu invites her and grandma to dinner.

Because he is Shen Muting's special assistant, they did interact often before, but they were not familiar with each other.

Li Man added: "You and I are neighbors. Please don't tell Shen Muting."

Shen Lu nodded: "I understand, don't worry, Miss Li, I'm not a talkative person. However, if Master Jiu asks, then I can only deal with business matters. I hope you can understand."

"Yes, I understand." Li Man responded with a slight smile.

What Shen Lu meant by this was that Shen Muting had never asked her about her affairs since she signed the divorce agreement. If Gu Huaixi hadn't called her that day without knowing they were divorced, she would have It was impossible to appear in front of Shen Muting, because Shen Muting was drunk and what happened next happened by mistake.

Both of them worked in Boyuan and walked out of the community together.

When he was about to leave the community, Li Man was not a hypocritical person, but he still felt a little uneasy.

Shen Lu had submitted her resume to Huanxing before, and it had been discussed a lot.

They both work in Boyuan and live in the same community. They commute to and from get off work. They will inevitably encounter situations in the future, maybe not many times, but if they appear together in the company, it will inevitably lead to misunderstandings.

Shen Lu also considered this, and he hadn't had breakfast yet.

There is a breakfast shop at the entrance of the community, selling steamed buns, porridge, soy milk, tea eggs and so on.

Walking out of the community, Shen Lu said, "Have you had breakfast?"

Li Man said hurriedly: "You have eaten, but you haven't had breakfast yet?"

"Well," Shen Lu nodded, "Then you go to the company first, and I'll have breakfast."

Li Man secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, goodbye."

"Goodbye."

Shen Lu turned around and went to the breakfast shop on the side of the road, while Li Man went in the other direction to the company. The two of them separated at the gate of the community.

Shen Lu rushed to the company after breakfast. Before his chair could be warmed, Shen Muting arrived and called him directly into the office.

"Come over to my office."

As before, Shen Lu carried the prepared coffee and followed Shen Muting into the president's office.

Shen Muting: "Are you ready with everything I asked you to prepare?"

Shen Lu nodded: "Ready."

Shen Muting: "Okay, contact Jing'an, I'll go see Shen Congqing later."

"Yes."

Shen Lu responded and contacted Xu Jing'an immediately.

Xu Jing'an was running, breathing a little heavily, and the broken hair on his forehead was wet with sweat.

Shen Lu was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was doing that kind of thing, and was stunned for a moment.

Xu Jing'an smiled: "I'm running. Did Mu Ting ask you to contact me for something?"

Shen Lu was embarrassed for a moment and immediately told Xu Jing'an what Master Jiu had told him.

Xu Jing'an raised his lips and smiled, "He finally remembered to deal with Shen Congqing. I will settle the care fees and food expenses with him later."

Shen Congqing lived in his house for a while, serving him delicious food and drinks every day. At most, he was worried and suffered some psychological torture. This was not worth mentioning for Shen Muting's method of dealing with people.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Jingan ran another two kilometers before taking a shower.

After simply taking a shower and changing clothes, he went to Guan Shen Congqing's place.

Shen Congqing counts the days every day. He has been detained here for 37 days.

Although the Xu family's servants would deliver three meals a day and the living environment was not bad, every day was suffering and the days seemed like years.

This was the first time he had seen Xu Jing'an since he was locked up. His intuition told him that something big would happen today, and the days of being locked up like this should be over.

"Did Shen Muting ask you to come?" Shen Congqing sat in the chair and raised his eyes to look at Xu Jing'an, "What did he mean by keeping me here for so long?"

At this moment, the servant brought breakfast to him.

Xu Jing'an pulled out a chair and sat down without saying anything. He glanced at the breakfast brought by the servant.

A meat bun, a bowl of stewed eggs, a glass of milk, and a piece of fruit, a good nutritional combination.

Shen Congqing followed his gaze and looked at the breakfast brought in by the servant. He felt heavy uneasiness in his heart, but he pretended to be calm and sneered, "What does this mean?"

Xu Jing'an raised his eyebrows, "Did the Xu family prepare a decapitation meal for you?"

He did have such concerns and doubts in his heart, but he didn't expect Xu Jing'an to say it directly. Although it was in a slightly provocative tone, he couldn't tell the truth from the false, and he became more and more uneasy, and his heart was hanging.
