Naturally, in order for Lu Chen to meet Cheng Xinchu, Yao Wei simply gave Sunday and Monday off and put Saturday on his work schedule.
So when Lu Chen came to the company, there were not only workers busy in the factory, but also people from several offices.
"Go to my office and take a look at our performance." Yao Wei pulled Lu Chen into his office again, and quickly called Cheng Xinchu over to report the performance to Lu Chen, while he went out on an excuse.
"Hello, Mr. Lu." Cheng Xinchu didn't say much when he saw Lu Chen again. He nodded slightly to Lu Chen and said hello politely.
"Well, take a seat." Lu Chen actually didn't resent the title of Mr. Lu. Cheng Xinchu was slightly stunned. However, he still faced Chen Lu honestly.
Cheng Xinchu handed over the information and explained it verbally. Lu Chen buried his head in looking at the information in his hand, listened to Cheng Xinchu's report, and couldn't help but nodded again and again. Obviously he was very satisfied with Cheng Xinchu's work.
"Manager Cheng did a good job. It seems that our company did not hire the wrong person." After Lu Chen listened to Cheng Xinchu's report, he closed the document directly. Manager Cheng's words put the relationship between the two of them apart.
"If Mr. Lu has nothing to do, I'll go out first." Cheng Xinchu put away the information.
"Manager Cheng, I don't know if you are free tonight. I would like to treat you to a meal." Lu Chen's personality has changed drastically, but his affection for Cheng Xinchu is still there. On the surface, he keeps a certain distance, but in his heart, he is unwilling to let go.
This one belongs to Cheng Xinchu.
"Well, I have a date tonight, I'm afraid..."
"A date?" Lu Chen frowned for no reason. Did she already find a boyfriend in the short period of time he left? Should he bless her?
"Hey, sister-in-law, you are too disrespectful to your elder brother. We'll talk about the date later. Just have a meal with Xiaochen today." Yao Wei rushed into the office at this time. This guy has always been affectionate.
Yao Wei was eavesdropping outside the door. Seeing that his plan was about to abort again, Yao Wei quickly rushed in.
The words "brother and sister-in-law" made Cheng Xinchu on the side blush immediately. Lu Chen still had a calm expression, obviously not having recovered from the date Cheng Xinchu mentioned.
"Since Manager Cheng has a date, I won't disturb you." Lu Chen smiled indifferently, but as he spoke, he felt a pain in his heart for no reason.
"Why are you disturbing me? It's rare for you to be together, so it's a little fun to have a meal together." Yao Wei directly answered Lu Chen's question for Cheng Xinchu, and pulled Cheng Xinchu out of his office before Cheng Xinchu could continue to speak.
Lu Chen watched Yao Wei and Cheng Xinchu walk out of the room and was about to stop them, but he still took back his outstretched hand.
"Mr. Yao, what are you doing?" Cheng Xinchu, who was pulled out by Yao Wei, was a little confused about Yao Wei's approach. After all, he had already said that he had an appointment. Wasn't this forcing him to break the appointment?
"Don't you think Lu Chen is weird?" Yao Wei did not answer Cheng Xinchu's question directly, but asked directly.
"So what?" Cheng Xinchu obviously hasn't forgiven Lu Chen from what happened last time.
"Don't you care about him?" Yao Wei looked surprised. Obviously he didn't know what happened last time, so that Cheng Xinchu couldn't forgive Lu Chen now.
"Why should I care about him?"
"Okay, I won't talk in circles with you anymore. You also know that I have spoken out my words now. At any rate, just give me this face, even if I am begging you." Yao Wei clasped his hands and pointed at them.
Cheng Xinchu worshiped her again and again, truly treating her as a living Bodhisattva who rescued those in distress.
Since Yao Wei has already mentioned this, Cheng Xinchu will feel sorry if he doesn't agree, so he can only reluctantly agree to Yao Wei's request to have a meal with Lu Chen.
Seeing that Cheng Xinchu nodded in agreement, Yao Wei did not ask Lu Chen for his opinion anymore, but hurriedly went to a Western restaurant to make a reservation. After all, this was a dinner invitation. If it was too shabby, he would be sorry for Lu Chen and Cheng Xinchu.
After everything was done, Yao Wei went to his office and told Lu Chen where to eat. He didn't forget to give Lu Chen a thousand yuan. After all, what he ordered was not an ordinary Western restaurant. He knew that Lu Chen had always been there.
They don't carry a lot of money with them, so in order to avoid unnecessary embarrassment, they had to prepare money in advance and give it to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen didn't refuse politely. After putting away the one thousand yuan, he took a taxi with Cheng Xinchu after get off work and headed towards the Western restaurant Yao Wei had reserved.
The two of them sat in the car and were helpless all the way. Lu Chen originally wanted to say something, but Cheng Xinchu seemed to deliberately avoid him and sat in the passenger seat alone.
The two got off the car and walked into the Western restaurant one after another. Yao Wei knew how to choose a seat and reserved a seat directly by the window.
Lu Chen was not polite. He first pulled out Cheng Xinchu's chair like a gentleman and let her sit down. Then he sat down opposite him.
Obviously, Yao Wei arranged this position by the window carefully, because at this time, Yao Wei was hiding in the billiards room on the second floor of a leisure club opposite, and he could see the two people clearly from the window position.
Naturally, the two people sitting in the western restaurant didn't realize that there was someone watching them while they were having a meal.
"What do you want to eat?" Lu Chen handed the menu to Cheng Xinchu.
"Just do whatever you want." Cheng Xinchu still handed over the initiative to Lu Chen. Looking at the waiter on the side, Lu Chen ordered two steaks without much thought, and he didn't forget to order a bottle of red wine.
.
The two of them arrived relatively early, and there were only a few people sitting deserted around them. After a while, two steaks and red wine were delivered to the table.
Lu Chen opened the red wine and poured some for Cheng Xinchu, but he didn't pour it himself. Apparently his personality had changed but his body functions had not. He was still allergic to alcohol.
"Aren't you going to drink some?" Seeing that Lu Chen's wine glass was empty, he did not pour it for himself. Cheng Xinchu looked at Lu Chen with some confusion.
"Did you forget? I'm allergic to alcohol."
"Then why are you ordering red wine? Isn't this a waste?" Cheng Xinchu obviously can't drink a bottle of red wine by himself. Such an order is obviously a waste of the bottle of wine. Cheng Xinchu clearly remembers what Lu Chen was before.
He was quite frugal, so how could he start to indulge in high-profile extravagance and waste at this time?
"It's okay, just drink yours. Don't you have a date today? Is it really okay not to go?" Chase Lu was cutting the steak on the plate, lowering his head and obviously not daring to look Cheng Xinchu in the eyes, and asked intentionally or unintentionally.
Got up.
"I can't help it. Mr. Yao has already lost his face and begged me. I'm embarrassed to refuse his kindness." Cheng Xinchu looked at Lu Chen who had his head lowered and made such an explanation.
"Really, don't I have to thank Yao Wei." Lu Chen smiled lightly, but his heart was extremely sad. You came to eat with me because you gave Yao Wei face. If Yao Wei hadn't come forward, you would have
Won't you come to dinner with me?
Yao Wei stood at the window of the billiards room and suddenly sneezed. However, it was obviously impossible for Yao Wei to hear what the two people were talking about from such a distance, but seeing Lu Chen's smile, he felt that something was going on.
"I'm here to say sorry to you for what happened last time. Officer Qin is right, but now that Lan Qin is in prison, there is almost no possibility for us to be together, so I hope you can understand this."
It's not that Lu Chen wants to give up on Lan Qin, but he doesn't have any choice when the matter is put in front of him. Not to mention himself, even his parents will definitely object to him being with Lan Qin.
"You don't need to tell me you're sorry. This matter is not your fault." Cheng Xinchu didn't expect Lu Chen to confess this matter to herself. After thinking about it, he still felt that Lu Chen should not be blamed for the matter. But he
But my heart always feels bad.
"You mean you forgive me?" Lu Chen's face was slightly happy, he didn't expect Cheng Xinchu to say such words.
"You didn't do anything wrong, and I can't forgive you for anything." Cheng Xinchu seemed to be still struggling with this matter.
"Can you give me a chance?" Lu Chen determined what he was thinking and said it decisively.
Cheng Xinchu said nothing, only focusing on the steak on the plate. The dull atmosphere made Lu Chen feel even more depressed.
Lu Chen stood up and poured some wine for Cheng Xinchu, and this time he actually poured some into his own empty wine glass. Before Cheng Xinchu could speak, Lu Chen drank all the red wine in the glass in one gulp.
Obviously Lu Chen didn't want to taste the taste of red wine, but just wanted to numb himself with alcohol.
"If you're allergic to alcohol, don't drink it. It's not good for your health." Cheng Xinchu's eyes were hesitant, and he was about to stand up to stop Lu Chen, but in the end he stopped his movements and sat down to persuade him.
"It's okay, let's drink again." Lu Chen saw that Cheng Xinchu didn't touch the wine glass on the table at all. He just poured another glass into his own wine glass and still suffocated.
Watching Lu Chen drinking in the billiards room, Yao Wei realized that things seemed to have deviated from the original track. Just when Yao Wei was thinking about whether he should help Lu Chen, Lu Chen had already paid the bill and came out.
, but still holding the half bottle of red wine in his hand, he kept drinking it.
Yao Wei knew that something was wrong, and was not afraid that Cheng Xinchu would find him. He quickly ran to the door of the restaurant opposite and hurriedly caught Lu Chen who was shaking.
"Miss Cheng, you go back first, and Lu Chen will be left to me." Although I don't know what the two of them said. Obviously, this time the battle plan failed again. Looking at Lu Chen who was dissatisfied with the red spots on his neck,
The way Yao Wei looks at Cheng Xinchu is not so friendly. You know that this kid is allergic to alcohol, so you can't persuade him.
Without paying attention to Cheng Xinchu, Yao Wei directly stopped a taxi and took Lu Chen away from the scene. However, Cheng Xinchu didn't say what he originally wanted to say, and could only send Lu Chen away silently.
