Chapter 70 Return of the Queen from the Sea


Chapter 70 Return of the Queen

The end of the entrance banquet represents the complete completion of Lu Yao's last "job" after the college entrance examination.

The hustle and bustle of the past has finally returned to calm.

As for the future, his achievements will be active in the conversations among friends and family after dinner. As for how these conversations will change every year, it depends on how Lu Yao will continue.

At around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Yao, who was so hungry and scratching his head, finally finished eating the cold noodles on the table.

Lu Yuanshan and Ms. Chen were also very happy.

Because after deducting the money spent on the meal for this college entrance banquet, there are still more than 40,000 yuan left in the gift.

Another income.

After returning all the tobacco, alcohol and drinks that we prepared, today's mission is completely over.

The family drove home.

Lu Qing, who was sitting in the back row, unconsciously started talking about Xu Ruochu:

"Mom, Lu Yao's boss has the best temperament among all the women I've ever seen. Even better than the celebrity I saw doing an event in the mall last time."

Her words were quickly recognized by Ms. Chen:

"Indeed, she has such a good temperament...Yaoyao, is she married?"

"No, she should be single. I have been with her for so long and I have never seen any other men around her."

"Then you might have a chance."

After hearing his words, Lu Qing said excitedly:

"What if she falls in love with you... Hey, are you underdeveloped? Can you make arrangements for me to have Jay Chou eat at the same table as me?"

Lu Yaoxin said that your brain circuit is so terrifying.

I can still understand the previous words, but what’s going on with the next words?

But before I could answer, I heard Ms. Chen say:

"Your brother can't control such a woman."

Lu Yao's mouth twitched.

At this time, Lu Yuanshan also spoke:

"Indeed, the boss Yaoyao gives me the impression that she is the kind of wealthy lady on TV whose husband has no ambitions and goes out to spend the whole day having fun, and then she manages a big family by herself and can convince everyone. Plant..."

Lu Yaoxin said, "Why are you three talking more and more nonsense?"

"Anyway, I think it's very unusual. Mom, when I gave her away... I couldn't even imitate the few steps she walked. She is different from a model... she just held an umbrella and walked out. It felt so good. And the clothes are also very good... I’m so envious.”

Lu Qing was still thinking about the "aftertaste".

Ms. Chen shook her head helplessly:

"Silly boy...that's the confidence built with money, you know?"

What she said... Lu Yao disagreed.

Because money alone cannot be accumulated to this extent.

After getting along with Hu Li, he knew it very well.

Having money and having money are also different.

The difference is huge.

Because there is still a distance in this world that goes beyond money.

It is the other side that it cannot reach no matter what.

……

In the afternoon, Lu Yuanshan put on a newly bought suit.

To be honest, Lu Yao was a little dazed.

Because... in his memory, the first time he saw his father wearing a suit was at Lu Qing's wedding.

The middle-aged man, wearing a suit that didn't fit too well, stood on the stage and handed his daughter into Wu Nan's hands with a face full of reluctance. He turned around and burst into tears.

After that, because he was such a loser, he never found a suitable girlfriend, so his father still didn't wear the suit for the second time at least until he was reborn.

But looking at his somewhat high-spirited father at this moment, Lu Yao actually felt his nose was a little sore.

Especially when I saw my mother taking out a new baking cream to dye his hair...

His gratitude to Xu Ruochu increased.

On the last day of June, all the Lu family's worries seemed to disappear.

It's a pity that God is not kind and the plum rain outside is still gloomy.

July 1st.

Early in the morning, Lu Yuanshan walked out of the house wearing a suit, with newly dyed black hair, and carrying a newly bought office bag.

Before leaving, Lu Yao, who was sitting at the dinner table, heard a... very strange greeting from his mother:

"Lao Lu, do you want to go home for lunch?"

After saying this, both mom and dad seemed stunned.

Even Lu Yao and Lu Qing were speechless.

It's like... today is the first day that everyone just got to know each other.

Fortunately, this mood soon turned into a source of happiness in my mother's singing.

Lu Yao carried a large bag of vegetables and several express boxes and drove the X6 to work.

When they arrived at Xu Ruochu's home, the other party's bedroom door was still closed.

Lu Yao first checked the refrigerator and found that there was still some meat sauce left in the box he had left, but he had eaten at least half of it.

And I saw half a banana on the table.

He sighed helplessly and began to work.

The rain has stopped today, but the air is still damp.

Because the air conditioner was not turned on, there was a faint smell of dampness in the entire hall.

He opened the express box first, which contained small stew pots bought on Taobao.

Then he opened another bag of barley and took some gorgon seeds.

Every year during the rainy season, my mother likes to make barley soup.

This soup is dehumidifying.

Finally, Lu Yao used the newly purchased plastic bags to pack the ribs, barley, gorgon seeds, and ginger slices.

Each plastic bag is about half the size of a palm, which is a one-time quantity.

After dividing them all, he cleaned the stew pot and put the plastic bags in the freezer layer of the refrigerator.

When it comes to taste, this frozen meat is definitely not good.

But for an elderly female CEO who lives alone and has yet to find a housekeeper or nanny, this is already the best solution.

Followed by the refreshing pickled side dishes.

He found that the female CEO liked the soy sauce cucumbers made by her mother very much and would eat them up every time she brought them. So she planned to get more, since her refrigerator was big but empty anyway.

While waiting for the cucumber to kill the water, he rarely walked into several guest bedrooms.

No one has ever lived in the guest bedroom in her house, and the bedding and everything else are neat.

But with the arrival of the rainy season, there is already a faint taste. Simply remove them all and wash and dry them to prevent the musty smell from spreading again.

When he was done, he unconsciously looked at the master bedroom...

After thinking about it, I thought I should ask her if she wanted all the bedding washed.

Now that I have been promoted to "assistant", I'd better worry as much as possible about my boss's daily life.

The time came to just after 9 o'clock.

The sleepy-eyed woman opened the door on time.

I saw the hum of the washing machine, Lu Yao busy in the kitchen, and smelled... a faint warm fragrance in the air.

She felt inexplicably satisfied.

So much so that when I say hello, a smile appears at the corner of my mouth:

"Morning."

"Good morning, Mr. Xu."

Lu Yao turned around, saw her, said hello, and told her what he was doing.

Xu Ruochu nodded subconsciously and looked at the stew pot:

“Just add water?”

"Yes, add water and put it in this steamer to steam for an hour. I will divide it into one bag each time."

"Yeah."

The female president nodded, inexplicably happy.

It's just... When Lu Yao asked if she wanted to change the bedding, she blushed and refused:

"I'll change it myself...it'll be fine."

Seeing this, Lu Yao said no more.

She ate breakfast and continued working in the kitchen.

This cup of soup obviously suited her taste. After drinking it, she took the initiative to help clean up the dishes, and then opened the freezer layer of the refrigerator with some curiosity.

Picked up the small plastic bag and asked curiously:

"Why is there still paper in here?"

"There's salt and pepper in there. Remember not to throw the paper in when it's stewing."

"Hmm!"

Xu Ruochu nodded heavily.

Feeling better.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Tao called.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Ruochu said:

"The lawyer he is looking for has already reviewed the contract I sent him. We will go to the lawyer's place to sign the contract later, go to the company, and follow me to look at the office furniture in the afternoon."

"Okay."

Lu Yao nodded and walked into the guest bedroom holding the dried quilt.

At early ten o'clock, Maybach left the Fortune Garden, arrived at a law firm, and saw Wang Tao.

The signing of the contract was uneventful. After both parties signed and sealed it, the investment of five million officially came into effect.

As for when the payment should be made, Lu Yao didn't care.

On the contrary, it was Wang Tao who shook Lu Yao's hand vigorously when he left.

But in front of Xu Ruochu, he couldn't say anything and could only express his gratitude with this behavior.

Not long after Lu Yao got in the car, he received a text message on his phone.

It belongs to Wang Tao.

"Assistant Lu, thank you. When you have time to come to Shen City, or next time I come to Magic City, we must have a drink together."

During the break between traffic lights, Lu Yao replied:

"Okay, Brother Wang, see you next time."

Then he and Xu Ruochu went to the company site.

The renovation progress of the office building of an investment company named "Chuangsi" has reached the point where water and electricity are slotted and the layout is divided. According to the foreman, it will be ready in about a month.

Then, the two went to the furniture store, and Xu Ruochu selected office supplies that fit her own aesthetic.

However, she used all solid wood for the decoration of her office. Lu Yao heard her calling the supplier in the car, asking for zero formaldehyde...

Obviously, the boss also cherishes his life.

As for the workers... I can only say that the office supplies Xu Ruochu bought were all international brands and of high quality.

But as for the quality, since he doesn't do decoration, he naturally doesn't understand.

After a busy day, Lu Yao took her to the gym in the evening.

Moreover, after Xu Ruochu looked at him, he asked him to come with him.

He met coach Zhang Jie at the door. He thought he was here for training, but she happened to be going to take care of the students... but Xu Ruochu directly arranged a fitness coach for him. Brackets: male.

It means practicing together.

But after she changed her clothes and came out, she disappeared.

Then, Lu Yao, who had been trained by the coach for an hour, saw her with wet hair.

After coming out of the gym, Xu Ruochu didn't let him go.

After giving an address, Lu Yao drove there and found that it was a clothing store.

After taking Lu Yao in, he couldn't help but let the tailor entertain him cordially.

After Lu Yao took the measurements, he didn't have to choose whether it was the fabric or the pattern. After Xu Ruochu talked a lot, he got the tailor's confirmation and told Lu Yao that he could get it in half a month. .

As for the experience of this trip, the female CEO only received one compliment: "Your legs are very long and your body proportions are quite good."

So, this long day officially ended at around 9pm.

After bidding farewell to the female CEO, when he returned home, his mother couldn't wait to share his father's work.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

According to Lu Yuanshan, this life is easy.

He shares an office with several other drivers and everyone is friendly.

The boss is also nice.

Be very polite to him.

The total time he spent driving that day was to pick up his boss for a meal at noon and take him back home in the evening.

The work intensity is about equal to none.

The drivers even played poker in the office. As a "newcomer", he was dragged into the game by the friendly captain and won more than a hundred...

There's something unreal about how good this works.

Even after he told this matter to his close card friend, the card friend still wanted his help to ask if he could get a good job for himself...

In short, dad is satisfied, and so is mom, who can see dad every day.

Lu Qing's procedures were also completed smoothly.

Everyone is satisfied.

So much so that the air in Lao Lu's house turned into a sweet smell, dispelling the humidity brought by the plum rain.

It became brighter.

……

Time flies, and 10 days have passed in July.

According to the weather forecast, this year's rainy season may be extended to about 20 days.

Lu Yao got up early to go to work and even saw mushrooms growing on a dead wood pile in the green area of ​​the community.

The past ten days have been uneventful. If there is any difference... it may be that under the correct guidance of the fitness coach, his abdominal muscles have already shown a trace of outline.

He was not fat to begin with, but after ten days of strict dietary control, and a high-protein and high-fiber diet every day, his body grew rapidly.

Even...Lu Yao didn't know if he was an illusion.

His pants seemed a little too short.

And the current worry of the Lao Lu family has become "Why hasn't my son's admission notice been received yet?"...

But Lu Yao is not in a hurry, after all, the issuance of the admission notice is a very flexible time.

If even the top pick in the country cannot pry open the threshold of resumption of China, then it really makes no sense.

And just when he was about to go out with breakfast in the morning, a rare call came from Xu Ruochu.

Lu Yao was a little surprised.

Because the female CEO has a very regular diet and rest schedule, except for going to a bar to have a drink with friends two days ago, there has been no deviation.

"Hello, Mr. Xu."

"Lu Yao, you go to the airport now. Hu Li should be getting off the plane soon. I estimate that she will arrive around 8:50. Remember to contact her and pick her up and come directly to me."

"Okay."

Lu Yao agreed directly. After getting in the car, he also sent Hu Li a message to pick her up. At the same time, he dug out the card given by the other party and the house purchase procedures in X6.

Ever since Hu Li left in a hurry in the middle of the night last time, he hadn't heard from him for more than half a month.

Not to mention missing.

But... Hai Hou is actually a very comfortable person to get along with.

He drove quickly to the airport.

When we arrived, it was 8:30.

After parking the car in the parking space, he followed his experience after picking up the sea twice and waited at the international arrival gate.

At early 9 o'clock, he finally dialed Haihou's phone number:

"Hello. Sister Li, are you here?"

"...Hmm."

As soon as Hai Hou opened his mouth, Lu Yao could tell...

She seemed to be in a bad mood.

So, he said:

"I'm right where Sister Li waited for me last time."

"Okay, I'll be out right away, waiting for my luggage."

"Well, then I'll wait for you."

He waited there for a while and saw Haihou holding a metal can in his hand.

So I walked over quickly:

"Sister Li."

As he spoke, he observed Hai Hou's appearance.

Frankly speaking, except for looking a little more haggard, Hai Hou has not changed much from before.

But it was this haggardness that made her even more pitiful.

"Sister Li, let me do it."

After Lu Yao took the suitcase, he wanted to help her get the metal can.

But Hu Li refused, and didn't even bother to say hello to Lu Yao. He just looked at those worried eyes and smiled a little pale:

"No need."

"...Okay, the car is over here."

"Yeah."

Soon, the two got in the car.

It was silent all the way.

Hu Li kept holding the metal can and looking ahead in a daze.

Not a word was said.

Seeing this, Lu Yao didn't say anything and took her directly back to the Fortune Garden.

When he got off the bus, he took the portfolio containing the card and procedures in his hand.

"Sister Li, here are the house procedures and cards."

Hu Li was leaning against the elevator wall, as if his soul had flown away.

When they arrived at Xu Ruochu's house, Lu Yao walked in and found that the other party had already gotten up and was looking at Hu Li.

"Bubu...is it inside?"

Xu Ruochu asked.

"Yeah."

Hai Hou nodded calmly, holding the jar, and said something that made Lu Yao a little confused:

"Come with me to southern Tibet. I want to bury it close to the sky."

Lu Yao's mouth twitched.

I thought to myself, sister, I can’t climb Mount Everest with my body type.

But what made him even more speechless was Xu Ruochu's response:

"Okay, when are you going?"

"How about this afternoon? I have contacted Yutan and he will wait for us there."

"Okay."

Xu Ruochu agreed without any hesitation.

At the same time, he looked at Lu Yao.

It was like asking him if he was going.

"..."

Lu Yao was speechless.

My heart says you two should be more hasty?

Just leave if you really say so.

But after thinking about it, he nodded:

"Do I need to prepare anything?"

"Do you have a jacket?"

Xu Ruochu asked.

Lu Yao shook his head:

"No."

After hearing this, Xu Ruochu thought for a while and said:

"Now go to the mall and buy two sets of outdoor clothes. They should be thicker. There is a big temperature difference between day and night there. Just come back after shopping... Remember to tell Uncle Lu."

"Okay."

After Lu Yao agreed, he turned around and asked Hu Li if he needed anything.

After the other party shook his head, he walked out of the house.

Go downstairs, get in the car, and go straight to the mall.

Then, he dialed his mother’s phone number:

"Hey, Mom."

"Son, what's wrong?"

"I'm going to the Northeast for a business trip with my boss. It will take about three to five days."

"Huh?"

Ms. Chen was a little surprised, but didn’t say much:

"Well, go ahead. Remember to bring some thick clothes when you go home. It's cold in the Northeast, you know?"

"Okay."

Lu Yao agreed and hung up the phone.

His eyes were a little dazed.

Nanzang...

A place that is both "strange" and familiar.
