Chapter 229
Auntie Wu’s cooking was very good, so Ruona had no control over it and actually ate two bowls of rice and drank a bowl of soup.
In the end, she felt that it was up to her throat, as if she would vomit it all out with one mouthful.
She walked out of the restaurant with difficulty, Ethan Lu saw her holding her waist, like a pregnant woman walking slowly step by step, both helpless and amused, and shook his head.
He got up and walked into the kitchen, and only after a long time did he come out with an extra mug in his hand.
In the living room, Don’s entire body was slumped on the couch in a big, lifeless line.
The first thing you need to do is to take a look at the newest version of the newest version.
Ethan Lu came over and saw this scene, helplessly laughed lightly, then walked over and handed over the mug in his hand, “This is hawthorn water, drink it to ease your appetite.”
Ruona took it, looked up at him, and said with great emotion, “Ethan, you’re so nice.”
He was always so attentive and considerate, how could she not love him more and more?
Ethan Lu smiled gently and shallowly, not making a sound.
With a heart full of emotion, she drank half a cup of hawthorn water, which was even worse for her who had already eaten too much, but how could she dare to let down his kindness?
So you can only aggravate yourself, but the hawthorn will also help with the appetite anyway.
After drinking, Ethan Lu brought the cup over and softly said, “Rest for a while, I’ll take you for a walk later.”
Ruona slightly absently, “Good e.”
Ethan Lu gently ruffled her hair, then took the cup and got up to go to the kitchen.
Looking at his long, straight figure, her eyes slowly became gentle.
She couldn’t help but think about what it would be like when they got older. Would he still be willing to make her a cup of hawthorn water?
She couldn’t help but smile as she thought about how distant it was. The most important thing now was to cherish the present and what you have in the present.
The next night, Albert typed up a report on Chen’s day’s activities and gave it to his sister-in-law.
Ruona looked at it roughly, then asked, “Is this just the trajectory of his activities for a day, or is it the same every day?”
“I asked the other old people in the community, and they told me that as long as the weather is good, this is usually how Chen’s day goes.”
Albert Lu’s heart palpitated as he thought of the dilemma he encountered today when he ran to ask the other old people, so he said, “Sister-in-law, don’t ever let me have this kind of thing in the future.”
“Why?”
Ruona, who was carefully reading the report, asked without looking up.
“Because it’s terrifying.”
Terrifying?! Ruona looked up and wondered at him, “What kind of terror?”
It was just a day of secretly observing Chen’s life, what could be so terrifying about it?
“It’s just that,” Albert didn’t know how to explain, it was just that he had been talking for a long time, and finally he had to accost her and say, “It’s just that the terror is right.”
Ruona couldn’t laugh or cry, “You’re too ambiguous.”
Albert Lu sighed heavily, “Sister-in-law, do you know how terrifying old people are? Especially old people who have daughters or granddaughters at home who aren’t married, it’s really scary as hell.”
When he said that, Ruona immediately understood, “What? You’re not going to be questioned by them about your ancestors, or even what color underpants you like to wear, are you?”
“Sister-in-law, why are you so smart?” Albert Lu deflated his mouth pitifully, “Sister-in-law, you don’t even know how horrible today is, more than a dozen old people surrounded me, from what I called to asking if my family has parents and brothers. That’s fine, sister-in-law, you know?”
Speaking of excitement, Albert’s entire body stood up, “More than a dozen of them were chattering in my ears as you and I spoke, and I really felt like I was at a duck farm with hundreds, if not thousands of ducks calling, and it almost drove me crazy.”
Looking at his palpitations, he seemed to be terrified.
Ruona’s thin eyebrows were slightly raised, “There’s actually a solution to this situation.”
“What kind of solution?”
“Tell them you’re married.”
Albert:”
Seeing that he looked confused, Ruona asked tentatively, “You’re not going to directly answer that you’re not married when people ask you if you’re married, are you?”
Albert Lu laughed dryly, “Sister-in-law, you’re really smart oh.”
Ruona had a black head and gave him a blank stare in a bad mood, “I’m not smart, it’s you who’s too stupid.”
“I’m not stupid, I just didn’t think that the fighting power of the grandparents was that strong!” Albert weakly defended himself.
Then he added, “Also, I’m too handsome, that’s why those grandmas like me so much.”
Ruona’s mouth was slightly drawn, didn’t he just find people scary? How come you’re now narcissistic instead.
“Since that’s the case, then tomorrow you’ll accompany me to find Chen Lao.”
As soon as this was said, Albert looked stiff, “Sister-in-law, are you serious?”
Ruona nodded, “Of course it’s true. After all, you’re so handsome, in case Chen also has a daughter who hasn’t married yet, won’t you be able to sacrifice your lust to help your sister-in-law.”
She raised her eyebrows at the collapsed Albert Lu, her seemingly innocent smile carrying a hint of smugness.
Albert knew she was making fun of him, but he was really afraid of encountering a situation like that that was completely out of control again.
Seeing his concern, Ruona shoved the report in his hand and said with no good feelings, “Don’t worry, with me here tomorrow, those grandparents will also know what’s going on.”
With the sudden addition of a woman by his side, those grand aunts would be able to take back the thoughts they had saved for him.
“Sister-in-law, are you sure?” Albert was still unsure.
“Really la, as long as you don’t call out to my sister-in-law tomorrow, I promise you’ll be fine at all.”
Since his sister-in-law was so assured, Albert stopped twisting and nodded, “That’s fine, I’ll go with you tomorrow.”
Ruona smiled in satisfaction, “Then tomorrow I’ll take the day off, and you can pick me up at home.”
“Good.” Albert responded.
“Since things have been happily resolved, let’s go to dinner.” After saying that, Ruona stood up and walked towards the restaurant.
Albert quickly got up to catch up as well.
“Isn’t Boss coming back for dinner?”
“Ethan has a meeting that hasn’t finished yet, he’s not back that soon.”
“Boss is so busyEither sister-in-law, let’s bring him dinner after we finish eating later.”
Chapter 230
Looking out through the wide floor-to-ceiling windows, the ink-like firmament was dotted with stars.
At the foot, Belfrek was illuminated with a warm scene.
Ruona looked at the beautiful scenery in front of her as if she was rapt, she never knew that Beining at night was so beautiful.
Behind her, Albert was lying on the sofa, staring at the ceiling, his stomach occasionally making a “rumbling” sound.
He was so hungry! I’m really getting hungry.
But his dear sister-in-law wasn’t going to eat yet, saying that she was going to eat together after the boss’s meeting.
He was afraid that when the meeting was over, he would die of hunger here.
And just as Albert Lu was sighing, the office door opened and a long figure walked in.
Albert Lu who heard the commotion hurriedly sat up and was as surprised as if he had seen a savior when he saw the visitor, “Boss, you’ve finally finished the meeting. My stomach is almost hungry.
“
Ethan Lu faintly swiped at his stomach, “Isn’t it still flat?”
“Boss it’s an exaggerated metaphor, get it?”
Albert Lu’s head was full of black lines.
Ethan Lu gave him a sidelong glance, then walked straight towards the slender figure standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
Albert left his mouth open, and knowingly got up and walked out of the office, leaving the space for them.
“Beautiful, isn’t it.”
Ruona was looking at it in fascination when suddenly, a familiar voice sounded behind her.
She was startled and turned her head, a handsome and extraordinary face came into view, then a bright smile bloomed on her delicate little face.
“The meeting is over?” She asked softly.
“Well, it’s open.” Ethan Lu nodded, then lifted her hand to brush away the broken hair that hung over her face, gazed deeply into her eyes, and asked softly, “Why did you come over?”
“Afraid you’ll be hungry ee” Ruona smiled playfully.
He smiled and rubbed her head, his deep black eyes rippling with a fine soft light.
He turned his head to look out the window, the beautiful night reflected in his eyes, and the upward curve of his l!ps deepened a little.
“The view you have here is so pretty it makes me jealous.” Ruona also turned her head to look at the night scene just like him, half jokingly and half seriously.
“Then come to work at Universal, you can see such a beautiful view every day.”
Saying that, Ethan Lu moved his gaze back to her, taking in her beautiful side face.
“It’s quite tempting. But I still like Golden Frame.” Ruona turned her head to smile at him in amusement.
This smile was bright and vivid.
His mind rippling, he reached out and hugged her waist, cradling her in his arms.
His sudden move caused Ruona to whisper a small cry.
“Mr. Lu, are you planning to lust after me?” Ruona looked up at him with a clever smile, her clear pupils flickering with a hint of amusement.
Sword eyebrows slightly raised, Ethan Lu bowed his head, his l!ps pressed against her l!ps, lightly, “Then do you think it will work?”
His voice was low and charming, gently tickling her heart.
With beautiful eyes flowing, she said in a near murmur, “You’ve already succeeded.”
Before the words fell, hot l!ps covered her l!ps, tenderly rolling and $ucking.
With her heart throbbing, she raised her arms around his neck and took the initiative to respond to his k!ss.
Outside the floor-to-ceiling window, the night is still beautiful.
Inside the floor-to-ceiling window, they embraced and k!ssed to their heart’s content, extremely tender and lingering.
“Ha” Albert Lu yawned, bored lying on the secretary’s desk.
Occasionally, he raised his eyes to the closed door of the president’s office, then sighed helplessly.
He thought he should be the saddest brother in history.
He was so hungry that he didn’t feel hungry anymore and the two people in the door didn’t seem to mean to eat yet.
He was contemplating whether or not he should go ahead and eat outside. Or do you want to go knock on their door now and ruin their warmth?
In the former case, he wouldn’t be able to eat Auntie Wu’s shrimp with ketchup.
The latter, he’d probably be eaten alive by the boss.
After making a comparison between the two, he had a decision in mind.
He stood up, walked straight to the door of the president’s office, and without a trace of hesitation raised his hand to knock on the door.
But before his hand even touched the door, it opened.
Ruona was supposed to come out to call Albert for dinner, but as soon as she opened the door, she saw the person standing in the doorway and couldn’t help but be shocked.
She looked at Albert Lu whose hand was frozen in mid-air with some amusement, “Albert, are you doing some kind of ceremony?”
Albert withdrew his hand and laughed dryly twice, “Sister-in-law, you have a rich enough imagination E”
Ruona raised her eyebrows, “That’s right, we work in the media, how can we write news without imagination e”
“Sister-in-law, why do you say that so awkwardly?”
Writing news based on imagination, isn’t that just making it up, pure bullshit?
“It’s not awkward.” Ruona turned towards the office and said as she walked, “Entertainment reporters, well, there’s always the prospect of business and catching the wind, then you have to rely on your imagination to weave the whole story together.”
“That’s a marketing number, not an entertainment reporter, sister-in-law.”
Ruona smiled back at him, “Pretty much the same thing.”
On hearing that, Albert Lu shrugged his shoulders, it did mean almost the same thing. Nowadays, which other entertainment reporter is truthful and doesn’t make his own news eh!
They went to the sofa and sat down, Ethan Lu had already placed the food they brought one by one on the coffee table.
Seeing the dishes that were still bubbling with heat, Albert almost burst into tears, he could finally eat.
“Albert, this is for you.” Ruona handed him a pair of chopsticks, seeing his eyes staring at the dishes, he couldn’t help but feel a little overwhelmed.
“I’m sorry, Saint Yao, for making you wait with me for so long.”
Albert shook his head, “It’s fine, I’m fine anyway.”
After saying that, he took the chopsticks, picked up the bowl, and ate without waiting for them to bury their heads.
Seeing this, Ruona and Ethan Lu looked at each other and smiled, it seemed that they were really hungry.
“Ethan, eat a shrimp.” Ruona put a shrimp in the bowl in front of Ethan Lu.
Ethan Lu was about to say something when he saw a pair of chopsticks reach over and clip away the shrimp.
He looked up and saw Albert Lu biting the shrimp into his mouth, “I’ll eat this shrimp, so don’t eat it, boss.”
“Albert, are you a child? Don’t understand to share?” Ruona saw how childish he was, and he was really laughing and crying.
“It’s not that I don’t know how to share, but it’s just that the boss can eat l!pstick, so what’s the point of eating shrimp?”
As soon as this was said, Ruona’s hand shook and the shrimp caught on her chopsticks fell off.
She stared at Albert Lu, “Albert, what did you just say?”
Albert Lu grinned at them, “I say, boss just needs to eat l!pstick.”
Saying that, the ambiguous sight swept over Ruona’s l!ps, the latter quickly raised her hand to cover her mouth, her face instantly bursting red.
Chapter 231
Until the end of the meal, Ruona did not say a word.
Even when Albert Lu talked to her, she only said “mmm” and “oh” to him, seemingly indifferent and indifferent.
At first Albert was wondering what was wrong with her, but then he realized with hindsight that he seemed to have said the wrong thing.
Right after his quip, “The boss just needs to eat l!pstick,” his sister-in-law became silent.
Is she shy or angry?
He looked at her face as he ate, but found that she looked calm, unable to see joy or anger.
“Saint Yao.” Ethan Lu called out in a low voice.
Lu Shiyao sniffed and raised her eyes to look at him in confusion.
Only his eyes looked deeply at him, his thin l!ps light, “The old man has arranged a blind date for you, the day after tomorrow at 10 am, at the ‘Galaxy Sea’, remember to go on time, or else”
He deliberately didn’t say anything, but Albert could tell from his deep eyes that if he hadn’t gone, the consequences would have been dire.
But-.
“A silly thing like a blind date doesn’t suit me, I’m still suitable for a roaring romance.” Albert directly refused this so-called arranged blind date.
Ruona, who was eating in silence, heard that she wanted Albert Lu to go on a blind date, and the tips of her eyebrows raised lightly, wasn’t this World Jin’s father too old-fashioned? Always wanting to set his son up on a blind date, Ethan was like this, now even Saint Yao couldn’t escape this cheesy routine.
“Then go talk to the old man yourself, it’s useless to talk to me, I’m just conveying his wishes.” Ethan Lu left the matter out of himself.
But Albert knew that this was what he meant, and that it had just been decided on the spur of the moment, and that the old man was merely taking it out to shield his gun.
Why?
It’s because he misspoke and made his sister-in-law angry.
He’s a big brother. He’s so small-minded when it comes to his sister-in-law’s business, he’s even better than a needle.
If he doesn’t go on a blind date this time, I’m sure there will be another time, next time, next time he won’t be able to escape big brother’s grasp.
Since that’s the case, it’s better to have a happy blind date, ah blind date, he has plenty of ways to make big brother die.
Thinking of this, Albert hooked his l!ps and smiled, and agreed very quickly, “Okay, I’ll be there on time the day after tomorrow.”
Hearing him promise, a mouthful of rice almost spewed out as Ruona stared at him with wide eyes, incredulous.
Nothing wrong with it, right?! A man so spontaneous would agree to a blind date?
Seeing how she couldn’t believe it, Albert Lu raised his eyebrows and revealed a meaningful smile, “Sister-in-law, I’m sacrificing myself to fulfill someone’s caution.”
Ruona frowned, not understanding what he meant.
But Albert Lu didn’t say anything else and lowered his head to continue eating his unfinished meal.
Seeing this, she looked at Ethan Lu in confusion, who was slightly absentminded, “Don’t mind him. We’ll go back after we finish eating.”
Ruona nodded her head and didn’t think much more about what Albert’s words meant.
The next day, at Ruona’s insistence, Albert accompanied her to visit Chen again.
This time, they didn’t go directly to Chen Lao’s house, but instead walked around the neighborhood.
“Old Chen likes to play chess, he usually goes downstairs after breakfast in the morning and plays chess with other old people for a whole morning, so it goes without saying how obsessed he is.”
This was the information Albert got from the other old people.
“Do you know how to play chess?” Ruona gave him a sideways glance.
“Will E” Albert got out without even thinking about it.
“Is that level awesome?”
“Sloppy, no boss good.” From learning to play chess until now, Albert hadn’t won once against Ethan Lu, so you could imagine the level of the two.
“Then if I had known I should have asked Ethan to come with me ee.”
“Huh?” Albert Lu looked dumbfounded, not knowing why she said that.
Ruona laughed, “Ethan is better at chess than you, then he should be able to match up to Old Man Chen, right?”
Albert was stunned, “Sister-in-law, you’re not going to let me play chess with Old Man Chen, are you?”
Ruona but laughed without saying anything, everything was in silence.
Albert Lu burst into tears, “Sister-in-law, you think too highly of me, how could you even want me to accompany Chen to play chess?”
Ruona’s eyebrows were slightly raised, “That’s how you understand. Pitching in is the only way to get closer, so won’t that be good for us?”
“Throw in the towel?!”
“Yes E” Ruona patted his shoulder, “This Chen likes to play chess, then we’ll play chess with him and talk about business.”
This was the reason why Ruona had a good chest, an old man who loved to play chess and still couldn’t find an opponent, if Saint Yao could win him, there might be a glimmer of hope.
Albert Lu was a smart man and understood what she meant, but he still had concerns.
“Sister-in-law, I can’t guarantee that I’ll win against him oh.”
“Don’t worry, if you lose, I won’t blame you.” Ruona reassured him with a smile.
His concerns, Ruona didn’t care in the slightest, after all, she didn’t expect him to win against a chess idiot who had played chess for so many years.
As usual, Chen was sitting in the pavilion playing chess with someone, unaware of Ruona’s arrival.
Ruona and Albert stood by the side quietly observing Chen’s chess moves, only to see a short while later, Mr. Chen killed his opponent without any defense, and could only capture.
With a shout of “Checkmate”, Chen won easily.
“Old Chen, your chess skills have grown a lot. No one here can beat you.”
“That’s right, I don’t even dare to play with you anymore, I’ll lose ten games if I play ten, I’m losing this old face.”
“Old Chen, since you’re so good, how about I ask my grandson to come over and let you teach me?”
“Old Chan,”
The people around you were saying one thing after another, some with a strong sour taste in their tone, clearly jealous of Chen Lao, but Chen Lao always maintained a faint smile without showing the slightest hint of displeasure.
It could be seen that Chen Lao was a highly cultivated person.
Ruona raised her eyebrows, then bumped Albert with her elbow, who turned his head to look at her wonderingly, and she motioned with her eyes for him to go up and play chess with Chen Lao.
As soon as he sat down, the sounds of yin and yang around him slowly stopped.
Chen Lao was puzzled as he looked at the young lad across from him, “What are you?”
Albert grinned, “I heard that your chess playing is very good, so I came over to ask for some advice.”
As soon as this was said, someone beside him immediately spoke, “Young man, so you came over yesterday to inquire about Chen Lao, just to ask him for advice ah?”
Albert followed the sound, it was an old lady over sixty years old, a bit familiar, it seemed like it should be the one he met yesterday.
He laughed dryly twice, busy echoing, “Yes, yes, I just want to learn from Chen.”
Damn, why is the old lady here watching chess too? You’ll attract a bunch of grannies, won’t you?
