Through Thick and Thin
Chapter 10
After reading this news, Lu Chuiqing was completely dumbfounded.
He sat on the bed for a long time, and finally called Uncle Wang.
Uncle Wang quickly answered, and Lu Chuiqing asked hesitantly, "Uncle Wang, I'm sorry to disturb you so late... It's the message you sent me. Did Mr. Xiao say what it was?"
Uncle Wang smiled gently and said, "I didn't say anything about it, and the boss won't tell me about it. I'll be responsible for sending you, Mr. Lu."
Lu Chuiqing was silent for a while, and forced a smile: "Okay, I understand, please come and pick me up."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Chuiqing was a little restless.
It's almost 08:30 now, if he was let go earlier, Lu Chuiqing would still feel that Xiao Zhan wanted to invite him to dinner.
At this point, let him pack up and go to the hotel where Xiao Zhan is staying?
Lu Chuiqing doesn't want to speculate on other people in this way, but he is really not the student who just graduated from the ivory tower for less than a year on the surface. Even if he doesn't have much social experience in the workplace, he naturally understands some things.
Regarding Xiao Zhan's private life, Lu Chuiqing had indeed heard some gossip.If most people say that, it is definitely not groundless, but this does not prevent Lu Chuiqing from considering Xiao Zhan as a person worthy of his admiration and learning at work.
Lu Chuiqing took a deep breath, thinking that maybe he was thinking too much.
Lu Chuiqing took a shower, dressed more formally, put on a neck ring, and left the hotel on time at nine o'clock.
Uncle Wang was very talkative along the way, from time to time he smiled and asked Lu Chuiqing how his work was recently, where he was from, and which university he graduated from.
Lu Chuiqing answered them one by one, and Uncle Wang finally smiled and said: "Mr. Lu has such a good job at such a young age. When I was your age, I was only dawdling. You must be a very hardworking person. I The boss admires people like you the most."
Uncle Wang's words were like a basin of cold water being poured on her head, making Lu Chuiqing's heart feel like falling into an ice cave.
Uncle Wang sent Lu Chuiqing to the entrance of the hotel. Huangcheng Garden Hotel is a well-known five-star hotel in D City. Lu Chuiqing looked at the resplendent lobby and the huge crystal chandelier, and didn't know what to do for a while.
Uncle Wang: "The boss is in Room 1888, you can go up directly."
The 8-character rooms in this kind of hotel are generally high-end suites. Lu Chuiqing took the elevator to the 1888th floor of the hotel with a somewhat stiff step. All the way, he was thinking about what if he told Uncle Wang that he was in a hurry and had to fly immediately. What is the possible outcome of returning to City S? He stopped in front of Room [-].
Anyway, Lu Chuiqing is a subordinate, Xiao Zhan wants to see him, no matter what is the matter, he cannot be seen.
Lu Chuiqing swallowed nervously, reached out and rang the doorbell.
After a while, the door was opened.Xiao Zhan was wearing clothes that seemed ready to go out at any time, and he didn't even change his leather shoes, as if he just came back from outside not long ago.
Lu Chuiqing raised her head to look at him, and called out cautiously: "Mr. Xiao, you came to me because..."
Xiao Zhan turned and walked into the room, the sound of his leather heels stepping on the soft carpet, like a lazy and dangerous cheetah, made Lu Chuiqing feel nervous.
There is an exquisite billiard table in the living room of the suite. Xiao Zhan picked up the cue in the barrel and said lightly, "Can you play?"
Lu Chuiqing was taken aback for a moment, and felt a little relieved in her heart, her body relaxed a lot, thinking that Xiao Zhan might just ask him to play.It is indeed normal to play golf and billiards with the boss.
Lu Chuiqing honestly said with some shame: "I'm sorry Mr. Xiao, I haven't played billiards before."
Xiao Zhan: "I'll teach you."
Lu Chuiqing was speechless, so she had no choice but to agree, walked in like walking on thin ice, and closed the door gently.
Xiao Zhan handed him a club, and the two came to the table, Xiao Zhan said: "Just follow my posture."
Xiao Zhan bent down, his back waist and legs stretched out a slender and vigorous curve, and the hidden muscle lines under the clothes were also wrapped by the slim shirt.He focused on the ball on the table, thin lips, well-defined chin and Adam's apple, this is a perfect body that can make people burn with intense jealousy.
Xiao Zhan pushed forward with his right arm holding the club, the club hit the white ball, and the bouquet was accurately hit into the pocket.
The impact seemed to hit Lu Chuiqing's heart, he looked away in a panic, his eyes were a little more disturbed.
Xiao Zhan straightened up: "Try."
Lu Chuiqing nodded, imitating Xiao Zhan's way of bending down, her movements were a little stiff.Xiao Zhan gently pressed his back with one hand, and slightly lifted his chin with the other hand. The palm of his hand was neither hot nor cold, but it made Lu Chuiqing startled, and her body tensed up involuntarily.
Xiao Zhan could feel that Lu Chuiqing's jaw was tense.Lu Chuiqing's figure was still thin, her chin was thin to the touch, and there was a thin layer of flesh on her bones.
Xiao Zhan: "Low your body, raise your head, observe the distance and angle, control the power of hitting the ball, and keep the hitting position close to the top, otherwise the ball will easily bounce."
Xiao Zhan put two straight balls with a very simple angle, Lu Chuiqing tried to hit it nervously, and the ball went in quite smoothly.
Xiao Zhan nodded: "Practice by yourself."
Lu Chuiqing agreed, raised her head secretly, and rolled her eyes quietly to see what Xiao Zhan was doing.Xiao unfolded a bottle of red wine on the table and poured a shallow glass.
Xiao Zhan sat down on the sofa in the living room and stopped talking, but Lu Chuiqing always felt that his eyes were on her body, and she felt that she was not right no matter how she stood.
Lu Chuiqing simply concentrated on learning how to play billiards, thinking that this is also a practical skill.Xiao Zhan didn't come to guide him, and he didn't know if his posture was right, so he could only follow his feeling.
Just when he was about to launch a shot, Xiao Zhan who was not far away asked, "Do you have a lover?"
With a sound of "boom", Lu Chuiqing's cue hit the white ball, and the position was off for a moment. The white ball bounced on the table, without touching a single ball, and bounced on the table alone a few times. There was an abrupt and ear-piercing sound, like Lu Chuiqing's increasingly tense heartbeat at this time.
With her back to Xiao Zhan, Lu Chuiqing answered after a while: "Mr. Xiao, why do you ask this?"
"Why do I ask, can't you see it?" Xiao Zhan leaned leisurely on the sofa, with some deep smiles flashing in his deep eyes, "I can tell that you actually don't want to come at all."
Lu Chuiqing's hand clenched the club tightly, and the knuckles turned white.
He felt a burst of disappointment and anger mixed with melancholy, but he was not stupefied and knew that these emotions could not be vented anytime and anywhere, so he said hoarsely: "President Xiao, I respect you very much...but I really don't want you Look at me that way."
Xiao Zhan said lightly, "Whether I like you or not doesn't prevent you from respecting me?"
"Mr. Xiao," Lu Chuiqing recalled the boy he saw next to Xiao Zhan at the annual meeting at the beginning of the year, so docile, docile, and cute.He does not interfere in other people's private affairs, but this does not mean that he agrees with these practices. He unconsciously emphasized his tone, "Please don't do this."
"What do you think I want? Treat you as a plaything with me?" Xiao Zhan put the wine glass on the coffee table, stood up, walked over step by step, and said in a deep voice, "Yes, the Omega around me is indeed Many, they are not forced to, they are just treated as playthings voluntarily and depended on others to live, if this is the case, then I have no obligation to respect them."
Lu Chuiqing was slightly taken aback, and couldn't help turning her head to look at Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan took the cue stick in Lu Chuiqing's hand, bent down to hit the balls, he hit the balls one by one into the pocket, each shot was very powerful, and his voice was smooth and unwavering: "You don't want to go wrong Men Xielu, I really appreciate people like you."
There were only white balls and black No. [-] balls left on the billiard table. Xiao Zhan stopped and looked at Lu Chuiqing: "You can rest assured that I have no unspoken rules. What do you mean by your development in Zhongming Fund has nothing to do with me?" It doesn't matter. Uncle doesn't like someone doing this in his company, and I don't have the ability. Whether you leave or stay now has no effect on your work. "
Xiao Zhan pocketed the last No. [-] ball, and the entire billiard table has been emptied, leaving only a lone white ball.
Lu Chuiqing's brain was a little blank, he felt that he was the white ball, and his mind was messed up by Xiao Zhan's club.
Xiao Zhan didn't try to rule him out?Even if he rejected Xiao Zhan, wouldn't he use his relationship with his boss Fang Jiaming to deliberately trip him up at work?
In other words, he was really given the option to refuse?
Xiao Zhan just wanted to know him better simply because of his admiration, because Lu Chuiqing really couldn't say the word "pursuit", which was too inappropriate for Xiao Zhan. For Xiao Zhan, there is a goodwill and sexual attraction in character, maybe Xiao Zhan just wants a comfortable and regular bed partner?
Lu Chuiqing's brain was buzzing, like a rusty gear, and seemed to be unable to turn.
He was a little flustered, and his cheeks turned red because of nervousness: "Mr. Xiao, I... I'm sorry, this is really too sudden."
Xiao Zhan glanced back at the electronic clock on the coffee table, and said indifferently, "Go back."
Lu Chuiqing was taken aback, Xiao Zhan told him to go?
Lu Chuiqing's heart slowly relaxed, and the tension in his heart disappeared a lot: "...Okay, Mr. Xiao, thank you for teaching me how to play billiards." He paused, and said with fever on his cheeks: "This matter, I will seriously consider it, thank you for your appreciation."
Xiao Zhan took the ball out of the bag, and seemed to be ready to play for a while: "The bouquet of flowers on the bar is for you, take it away."
When Lu Chuiqing turned her head, she realized that there was a bouquet of roses on the bar at the entrance. The very common crimson roses were wrapped in a black-gold package with sequins, quiet and low-key, but eye-catching .
Lu Chuiqing thanked her in a daze, and walked over to pick up the bouquet of flowers.He suddenly saw a gilded black card in the middle of the bouquet, probably a gift from the florist, with a series of numbers written on it with a pen, and the handwriting was neat and clean.
Xiao Zhan: "That's a private number."
Lu Chuiqing pursed her lips, hesitated for a while, put the card into her coat pocket, said goodbye solemnly, opened the door and walked out.
He sat on the bed for a long time, and finally called Uncle Wang.
Uncle Wang quickly answered, and Lu Chuiqing asked hesitantly, "Uncle Wang, I'm sorry to disturb you so late... It's the message you sent me. Did Mr. Xiao say what it was?"
Uncle Wang smiled gently and said, "I didn't say anything about it, and the boss won't tell me about it. I'll be responsible for sending you, Mr. Lu."
