Surprise! Love-brained Mr. Li has made his ex-girlfriend his girlfriend
Chapter 478: Certificate required for work
Inside a traditional Yuecheng morning tea shop.
On a square table, there are several baskets of small but extremely exquisite steamed dishes, including rice rolls, shrimp dumplings, dry steamed siu mai, black bean chicken feet, glutinous rice chicken, boat porridge, etc.
Lu Xingchen sat on one side of the table. Opposite her sat a man who was wearing a brown leather jacket, a thin gray sweater, and had short gray hair. He looked a little reserved.
Although the man is over fifty years old, apart from a light scar on his forehead, he still has handsome features and a three-dimensional bone structure. Not to mention that you can still see the superior appearance he had when he was young, he is still a very heroic uncle now.
And this person is Lu Xingchen’s biological father, Lu Wenli.
Since even the clothes he was wearing were the same ones Lu Xingchen saw when Xu Fanghua opened the business that day, it was not difficult to guess that he was the one who gave away the two unsigned flower baskets.
This morning, Lu Xingchen suddenly received a call from an unknown number, and then came to this teahouse as requested by Lu Wenli.
When the dishes were served, Lu Xingchen looked at the person opposite through the steam coming out of the steamer and asked, "Besides sending the flower basket, have you also looked for my mother?"
Lu Wenli obviously didn't expect that she knew he was the one who sent the flower basket. He was stunned for a moment and waved his hands quickly, "No, no, I even had someone send the flower basket up. As for me... I just took a look downstairs and left."
"What do you want to do by doing this?" Lu Xingchen didn't believe him, looked at him seriously and asked, "I told you, if you cause trouble for my mother again, I won't be polite to you no matter who you are."
Seeing her alert and warning expression, Lu Wenli was silent for a while, "Xingchen, I'm sorry."
Not every sorry can be forgiven. Lu Xingchen looked at him without saying anything.
Lu Wenli smiled stiffly, "I don't mean to cause trouble, I just want to see if you are doing well."
"My mother would be better off without you."
"..." Lu Wenli lowered his head and nodded again, "So, I didn't dare to show up."
"But you have already made this move, Lu Wenli. You have nothing to do with my mother anymore, and I can make you go as far away as you want at any time. Don't force me."
Seeing her cold attitude, Lu Wenli opened his mouth to say something, but nothing came out. He took out a paper bag from the seat next to him, put it on the table, and then pushed it towards Lu Xingchen.
Lu Xingchen didn't answer or say anything.
Lu Wenli looked at her and said, "It's not something expensive, just a tablet that your kids like."
Lu Xingchen's eyelids twitched. What did he mean?
Lu Wenli then asked, "Isn't today your birthday?"
Lu Xingchen: “…”
Lu Wenli: "I've thought about buying you a birthday present before... I mean... I just..."
After trying several ways to start, Lu Wenli still couldn't express his meaning directly. Finally, he could only look at Lu Xingchen and say, "You should know where Li Zhen arranged me to work, right? I, I have already paid back the 80 million."
This surprised Lu Xingchen a little.
Lu Wenli was afraid that she would not believe him, so he added: "If you don't believe me, you can ask Li Zhen... Well, although I also received help from Li Zhen and took advantage of the market trend, I have indeed paid off my previous debts. Yes, I just want to tell you this, I paid off my debts myself."
After saying this, Lu Wenli's eyes were a little red. After working seriously and striving to earn sales, he realized through all the hard work how unrealistic, opportunistic and arrogant he had been before.
Seeing that he was almost crying, Lu Xingchen didn't know whether he was moved or ashamed, so he said stiffly: "You have made money before, but you were not satisfied and you were too proud to keep it."
"Yes, yes." Lu Wenli nodded seriously and admitted, "So after watching some of your business campaigns, I realized that my so-called struggle was just lip service."
Lu Xingchen grasped the other key points in his words, "Have you seen my business campaign?"
Lu Wenli knew she had misunderstood and quickly explained, "I didn't follow you. I was very depressed at the beginning and still felt that I was born at the wrong time and had no opportunities. Li Zhen showed me some videos of your entrepreneurial experience. So I watched everything from your bidding with Zhencheng Huiguang to your competition with Feng Corporation, and then I felt ashamed. Why did I think it would be easy for you to support me with Lu Dingsheng, and I felt at ease to squeeze your hard-earned money..."
Lu Wenli lowered his head and wiped his eyes quickly, then smiled and said, "Although I know I'm an asshole, sometimes when I look through your videos, I secretly feel happy... I know you don't believe me, but even when I was shouting that you looked down on me, I wanted to buy you a birthday present, the kind that other kids wanted the most. But at that time, I always felt that only by becoming rich quickly and surpassing Lu Dingsheng could I hold my head up in front of you..."
After he finished speaking, seeing that Lu Xingchen hadn't said anything, he suddenly explained awkwardly and nervously, "I will never appear in front of your mother without permission, nor will I cause you any trouble. Otherwise... Li Zhen will definitely be the first one who won't let me go, right?"
Seeing that he was timid, Lu Xingchen gritted his teeth and asked, "Have you finished what you wanted to say?"
Lu Wenli was stunned for a moment, realizing that she didn't believe him, and it was even more impossible for her to accept his kindness. He hesitated for a while and said, "How about you eat something before you leave?"
"I have something else to do." Lu Xingchen said and stood up.
Just as she turned around, she heard the legs of a chair rubbing against the ground sharply. It was obviously the sound made by Lu Wenli standing up in a hurry. Lu Xingchen paused for a moment, and after a moment she turned around again, picked up the paper bag on the table, and continued to leave without looking at Lu Wenli.
Suddenly, she heard vaguely a man crying. The sound was not loud, but it was particularly abrupt and harsh in the bustling teahouse, and it lingered for a long time.
Lu Xingchen drove her car halfway and took a look at the paper bag on the passenger seat. At this moment, her cell phone rang and she pressed the answer button in the car.
Xu Shiwen, who was far away in Shenzhen, said with tears in her eyes, "Xingchen, I am successfully pregnant, and it was a natural conception. Today is the 12th week!"
Thinking of Xu Shiwen who cried inconsolably because of fetal arrest a few years ago, and comparing it with the present, Lu Xingchen couldn't help but remember a saying: The boat has already passed through thousands of mountains.
After ending the call with Xu Shiwen, Lu Xingchen's chest continued to warm up because of the series of good things that had happened recently.
I thought to myself what Li Zhen had said, that when the storm subsides, all good things will be waiting for them.
Lu Xingchen turned his head to look at the time shown on the watch on his wrist, then turned at an intersection ahead and drove towards the airport.
In more than an hour, the plane Li Zhen is on will land.
And she wanted to see him as soon as possible, because she missed him very much at the moment.
Three hours later.
The two returned home. This time, it was not Li Zhen, but Lu Xingchen who pushed Li Zhen against the wall as soon as he entered the house. Then, when Li Zhen was kissed passionately, Lu Xingchen unbuttoned his clothes and asked him, "Boss Li, I want to hire a skilled worker. Do you want to come?"
Li Zhen didn't know why Lu Xingchen was suddenly so enthusiastic and proactive. He moved his throat and held her hand, because he knew very well that if he let her continue, he would not be able to say anything, and he had to strike while the iron was hot and ask her.
“Come, but can I make a request to Mr. Lu?”
"any request?"
"I want to get a certificate and work as a legal long-term skilled worker. Is that possible?"
Lu Xingchen's blurry eyes suddenly became clear. She looked at him for a moment and finally couldn't help but smile: "Then go get your ID card. The Civil Affairs Bureau should still be open."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zhen couldn't wait to kiss him, and while kissing him, he said, "It's okay, I can let Mr. Lu experience it first, and let you feel that the technician you hired is worth the money."
"Aren't you worried about the Civil Affairs Bureau closing down?"
Hearing this, Li Zhen took out his phone from his trouser pocket and dialed, "Awu, ask the nearest Civil Affairs Bureau to leave a staff member waiting for me."
Huo Chuanwu was stunned for a moment, then asked with a smile: "How long will you wait?"
Li Zhen glanced at the half-undressed person in his arms and said, "Three hours."
After saying that, he hung up the phone and threw it away, then kissed Lu Xingchen's mouth as he angrily said, "Three hours is a bit too much."
More than four hours later.
Li Zhen, looking refreshed, appeared in front of the door of the Civil Affairs Bureau closest to his residence in formal attire with Lu Xingchen, whose eyes could hardly conceal her charm. Then they reached out for each other's hands at the same time, held hands tightly, and walked into the marriage registration office where the lights were still on for them.
