Surprise! Love-brained Mr. Li has made his ex-girlfriend his girlfriend
Chapter 32: Helping and killing is Mr. Li's real intention
"Then Boss, I'll revise the bid tonight and give it to you tomorrow morning."
"Send it to me when you have revised it tonight."
"it is good."
"Thanks for your hard work."
"I'm fine, but you have so much to do and you have to rush the Nanhuan project, so you should take it easy. Tens of thousands of people are watching you eat."
"I have my measure."
Luo Shi and Li Zhen were talking as they walked towards a parking space close to them.
Hearing Li Zhen say that he knew his limits, Luo Shi couldn't help but say, "You really don't know your limits in this regard. Now everyone doesn't call you a workaholic anymore, they call you a workaholic demon instead."
"Mr. Li..."
"Oh my god." Luo Shi was really frightened by the person who suddenly jumped out. Seeing that it was Lu Xingchen who called him "Boss Li", he couldn't help but raise his voice and said, "Why is it you again? It's you, right? Can you please stop arming yourself like a terrorist every time?"
Isn't this because he's afraid of being seen and gossiped about? Lu Xingchen apologized, "I'll be more careful next time."
"There will be a next time!" Luo Shi was furious. "Just tell me what you want to say right away. Don't act like a stalker and show up every now and then to scare people."
With Luo Shi's words, Lu Xingchen took the opportunity to say to Li Zhen: "Boss Li, please spare some time for me, otherwise Assistant Luo will be scared if I come again."
Luo Shi immediately looked at her. Why did she push him up?
But it was really not a good idea to ask her to wait for her boss like this all the time, so Luo Shi didn't say anything, but just turned around to see her boss's reaction.
Li Zhen was probably annoyed by Lu Xingchen's behavior, so he said to him, "Luo Shi, go back."
"Okay." Luo Shi pointed at Lu Xingchen as a warning before leaving, "Don't do it again, or I'll really call security for you."
"Okay." Lu Xingchen watched him get into the car, then turned around and said to Li Zhen... What the hell, the man had already walked to his car, opened the driver's seat and sat in.
He just left without saying a word!
Lu Xingchen immediately rushed to his car and quickly pulled the handle of the back door.
However, it cannot be opened.
She looked up and saw that Li Zhen had indeed gotten in. She waited for him to start the car before trying to open the door.
The door is still locked.
Did he refuse to talk to her, or did he deliberately agree but then locked the car door and didn't let her get in?
If it was the second person, would he dare not be so childish?
Lu Xingchen tapped the car window and said, "Boss Li, could you please open the door?"
The backseat door didn't move, but the passenger window was lowered.
Lu Xingchen walked up, leaned over and said to him through the open car window, "The back door is locked."
Li Zhen looked over coldly and said, "Am I your driver?"
Does he think it's beneath him to drive like a driver while she sits in the back?
It turns out that people who are rich and powerful cannot tolerate any grievance.
But Lu Xingchen didn't care. It didn't matter where she sat. She opened the passenger door without hesitation, and sure enough, it was not locked.
She sat in smoothly and said politely, "Thank you."
As she expected, he did not answer.
But she didn't take this little thing to heart at all, and she turned sideways and buckled her seat belt.
The next moment Li Zhen drove the car out.
After the car left the garage, Lu Xingchen took the initiative to say, "I've asked you to have a meal so many times, why don't you just do me the honor today?"
She had no hope and was even prepared to be rejected, but after a while, Li Zhen looked straight at her and asked indifferently, "Can I eat anything?"
"All right." It was rare for him to open his mouth, and Lu Xingchen's first reaction was to agree. After all, she would feel better if she could repay his favor. "What do you want to eat?"
Li Zhen didn't answer again, he just kept driving with his eyes fixed straight ahead.
Did he agree to have dinner with her or not? Lu Xingchen couldn't figure it out, so he gave her another chance and said with a smile, "Just take me to whatever you want to eat."
Li Zhen did take her there, but when Lu Xingchen saw the words "Zhuo Yue" written in black on a white background on the restaurant's low-key sign, the words "I'm in trouble" popped up in her mind.
The design of Zhuoyue Restaurant's sign is low-key, but the consumption is not low-key at all. The starting price per person is NT$5,000. If you order some decent wine, the price per person cannot be calculated based on this.
Why did this guy suddenly agree to treat her to a meal? It turns out he was waiting for her here!
But even if she felt that she was being tricked, she couldn't say that she couldn't afford it or that he should eat somewhere else since he had helped her so much. Even if she could say it, this person might not only be sarcastic, but also might not eat with her.
Lu Xingchen followed him into the restaurant calmly.
The restaurant environment is just like its signature, simple yet luxurious.
There were not many guests inside.
Of course not many. Zhuoyue has a limited number of guests it receives every day. If you want to dine here, you have to make an appointment at least one month in advance.
As soon as they arrived at the front desk, the waitress in a white shirt and fishtail skirt politely asked for their reservation information. Li Zhen took out a card from his wallet and handed it over. The waitress smiled and nodded when she saw the card, saying, "Please follow me."
The waiter led them to a seat where they could directly enjoy the view of the Pearl River outside the window.
After introducing today's menu to them, Lu Xingchen realized that Zhuoyue only receives twelve guests and prepares twelve dishes every day in principle.
The waiter talked about the appetizers and desserts, and then asked them, "Do you need any adjustments or flavor requests?"
Li Zhen looked at Lu Xingchen.
Lu Xingchen smiled and said to the waiter: "No, thank you."
The waiter looked at Li Zhen and asked, "Would you like something to drink?"
Li Zhen asked, "Do you have any wine recommendations?"
"We recently got two new wines, one is red wine and the other is white wine..."
"Then give me one each." Li Zhen ordered without waiting for the waiter to give any detailed instructions.
When the waiter brought the two bottles of wine to the table, Lu Xingchen almost laughed bitterly.
These are two bottles of Romanee-Conti, each bottle has a market value of 50,000 or 60,000 yuan. It is true that the saying goes, "If you insist on saving face, you will suffer in your life."
While the waiter was showing Li Zhen the wine, Lu Xingchen had been calculating how much money he could still get from his credit card, but in the end he could not even afford half of it.
The waiter poured them the wine, said "Enjoy your meal" and left.
Li Zhen glanced towards Lu Xingchen.
Lu Xingchen immediately put away the little calculation in his mind, and cursed him in his heart but smiled and said to him: "Eat, you're welcome."
Li Zhen lowered his eyes, picked up the knife and fork, and slowly cut the wagyu cheese rib-eye steak in front of him.
Lu Xingchen stared at the Wagyu foie gras in front of her, which was about one bite long. She had never thought about why this thing was so small and yet so expensive?
"Don't you like drinking very much?" Li Zhen suddenly said.
Lu Xingchen immediately looked up at him.
Without even looking up, he continued, "You can drink with others, but not with me?"
He would feel uncomfortable if he didn't make fun of him, right? Lu Xingchen picked up the wine glass and gestured to him, "Why? This glass of wine is for you, thank you for helping me out many times."
Li Zhen didn't pick up the wine glass on the table, obviously not intending to drink with her.
Lu Xingchen's wine glass lay there awkwardly for a while. She smiled and said, "I know you feel bad for asking you to help me, but I promise it won't happen again."
Li Zhen looked at her at this time and said, "You swore last time that you would never regret it."
