Through Thick and Thin

Xia Yuanbo is a model of a second venture.Before he was 40 years old, he had been working hard in the small household appliance industry. After several years of hard work, he did not make much progress. Later, he entered the material industry and established Boda Group. At the same time, he served as the chairman and controlling shareholder of Boda Material Technology Co., Ltd.

Xia Yuanbo's eldest daughter, Xia Xuanrou, is married to the president of a local branch. She has a nine-year-old daughter who is a housewife; Xia Yuanbo's youngest son, Xia Hao, is a returnee master who studied abroad. General manager.

During the lunch break, Lu Chuiqing browsed the information of Boda Group on his mobile phone while eating in the company cafeteria.Lu Chuiqing remembered Xiao Zhan saying that he and Xia Hao knew each other, so she paid special attention to Xia Hao's age, and found that not only was he the same age as Xiao Zhan, but both of them went to the same university abroad.

Lu Chuiqing bit the tip of her chopsticks, silently thinking that she was just gossiping casually, and began to search for Xia Hao's second gender on the Internet.Formal information on the Internet generally does not specify the second gender of the search object in order to protect privacy, but this kind of thing can often find gossip, just like there was no evidence to prove that Xiao Zhan was an Alpha, but everyone in the company No one does not know the same.

The power of gossip.

Xia Hao, as the son of Boda Group's boss and the general manager of Boda Materials, will inevitably receive a lot of attention. Lu Chuiqing soon found out from the gossip of netizens in a stockholder forum that Xia Hao should be a Alpha.

Lu Chuiqing breathed a sigh of relief, but finally felt a little ashamed.He is no longer an adolescent boy who lacks a sense of security. With just one sentence, some wild things come to mind. If Xiao Zhan knows, he might laugh at him in his heart.

Having said that, it's not that he doesn't know that Xiao Zhan must have had people around him before, maybe some casual playmates like those at the company's annual meeting back then, or even closer people.

Lu Chuiqing didn't care that much about it, it's fine to have a little taste once in a while when he thinks about it, since he decided to be with Xiao Zhan, the future of the two of them is the most important thing.

On Thursday afternoon, it was rare for Lu Chuiqing to get off work early.Xiao Zhan was planning to have dinner with Yuan Ning and his secretary. After receiving a call from Lu Chuiqing, he asked Yuan Ning and his secretary to go to the restaurant first, and turned around to pick up Lu Chuiqing.

Lu Chuiqing thought it was just the two of them, but when Xiao Zhan said that Manager Yuan and his secretary were also there, she felt a little embarrassed for a while.

It's not that Lu Chuiqing is worried that his relationship with Xiao Zhan will be publicized. Manager Yuan is definitely not that kind of person. As for Xiao Zhan's secretary, if he can take this position, he will definitely not talk about it everywhere.

It's just that Lu Chuiqing felt nervous for no reason at the thought of getting to know people in Xiao Zhan's company as Xiao Zhan's lover.

At this time, Xiao Ye, Yuan Ning and Xiao Zhan's secretary, had already arrived at the restaurant. When Xiao Zhan left, he only said that he was going to pick up someone and asked them to add a seat at that time, but he didn't say who to pick up.The two felt that the other party was probably an important leader, or a friend of Mr. Xiao.

Xiao Zhan's secretary went to the gate of the restaurant to wait for their boss to come over, while Yuan Ning ordered the tea in the box first, not daring to neglect at all.

After more than ten minutes, the door of the box was pushed open by Xiaoye, Yuan Ning immediately stood up to greet her, and when she looked up, her eyes collided with Lu Chuiqing who was walking in.

Not long ago, after Yuan Ning returned from a business trip, Guan Xiaoluo excitedly mentioned the matter of Lu Chuiqing to him. It was only then that Yuan Ning knew that the researcher surnamed Lu in Zhongming that day was Xiao Luo's roommate.

Yuan Ning was already quite impressed with Lu Chuiqing, but Guan Xiaoluo praised him again, saying that he was nice and excellent and took good care of him, and complained openly and secretly that Yuan Ning was too busy at work and was not considerate, which made Yuan Ning burst into laughter I can't laugh or cry, so I have to pay for it again and again.

At that time, Yuan Ning felt that no matter what he said, he had to find time to thank Lu Chuiqing.

Unexpectedly, the opportunity came so soon.

Yuan Ning opened his mouth in surprise, and subconsciously wanted to blurt out "Xiao Lu", but after all, he has so many years of experience in the workplace, and his ability to adapt to changes and observe details is of course first-rate, so he immediately swallowed this title go down.

Mr. Xiao can go to pick up Lu Chuiqing in person, so Lu Chuiqing must not come to dinner with Mr. Xiao as an ordinary Zhongming employee.

Before Lu Chuiqing could speak, Yuan Ning greeted first, "Hello, Mr. Lu."

Yuan Ning spoke first, which made Lu Chuiqing a little ashamed for a moment, he felt that no matter what, he should be the one who greeted Manager Yuan first, and quickly said: "Hi Manager Yuan, I... come here to have a meal with a shy face, call me Xiaolu will do."

Xiao Zhanchui, who was behind him, looked at Lu Chuiqing's somewhat ashamed expression, and knew in his heart that Yuan Ning must be able to see that Lu Chuiqing had an unusual relationship with him. It's just embarrassing others.

Xiao Zhan smiled slightly: "Okay, Xiaoqing, sit down, don't embarrass Yuan Ning."

Lu Chuiqing blushed a little, before she had time to say anything, Xiao Zhan pulled her to sit down.Yuan Ning and Xiao Zhan's assistant, Xiao Ye, looked at each other, and they both read a bit of surprise from each other's eyes.

Whether it's the title or the tone of voice, it's enough to explain everything.

Both of them are one of the people who have the most contact with Xiao Zhan at work, and Xiao Zhan has seen too much of Xiao Zhan showing his sharpness and not being angry; although they can be called gentle in the few moments after work, they are also I have never heard such a startling tone from Xiao Zhan.

Yuan Ning and Xiao Ye confirmed in an instant that it turned out that Mr. Lu was not a friend of the boss, but the boss's wife.

After being seated, Xiao Zhan took the menu from the waiter, ordered a few dishes, and asked Lu Chuiqing, "What do you want to eat?"

Lu Chuiqing hadn't recovered from the subtle embarrassment that permeated the dining table, and replied slightly stiffly: "I'll do whatever I want, just watch it."

After the initial restraint passed, the atmosphere after a meal was quite pleasant.Lu Chuiqing also found that peacefully getting along with Xiao Zhan's work partner as Xiao Zhan's lover didn't seem to require as much hesitation as he imagined.

After dinner, Yuan Ning and Xiao Ye sent them to the car.The restaurant was crowded today, and Xiao Zhan parked his car far away, so he asked Lu Chuiqing to wait at the door, and he drove over.

While Xiao Zhan was driving, Yuan Ning quietly said to Lu Chuiqing: "Mr. Lu, don't worry, I won't casually tell anyone else about you and President Xiao."

Lu Chuiqing really didn't expect Yuan Ning to say so generously to make him feel relieved, she immediately raised her head and said gratefully: "Thank you, Manager Yuan."

Lu Chuiqing felt that it was a kind of fate that he could be a roommate with Manager Yuan's lover by such a coincidence, and there was no need for extra formality, so he smiled cheerfully: "But Xiao Luo is completely fine, Manager Yuan, you can rest assured to be with him explain."

Yuan Ning smiled knowingly.

Xiao Zhan drove the car over, Lu Chuiqing turned around and said goodbye to the two, got in the car and left.

Xiao Zhan: "Do you want to go home or go to my house?"

Although both of them have done what they should do, Lu Chuiqing subconsciously feels that she still can't cling to Xiao Zhan every chance she has. Xiao Zhan probably wants some private space, and won't like a lover who is too clingy.

Lu Chuiqing coughed and replied, "I'll go home...go to your place on weekends."

As the car drove onto the road, Lu Chuiqing happened to see an outdoor billboard standing in the middle of the overpass in the green belt - an advertisement for Sheng'an Insurance Company.

Lu Chuiqing's heart tightened, she lowered her eyes, and was speechless for a while.

After more than 20 minutes, Xiao Zhan parked the car at the gate of the community.Lu Chuiqing opened the car door, and looked back at Xiao Zhan, who was not in a hurry to leave, and looked back at him leisurely.

Lu Chuiqing scratched her cheeks with her fingers, her eyes fluttered, and finally she calmed down and leaned forward, kissed Xiao Zhan's lips lightly, slightly embarrassed and said: "Good night."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Chuiqing immediately opened the door and got out of the car.

After a while, there was a charming and gentle smile in the car.

When Lu Chuiqing returned home, Xiao Luo hadn't come back yet, and the house was still dark and empty.He turned on the air conditioner in the bedroom, sat on the chair for a while, and finally picked up the phone and found Chen Yuan's contact information.

Lu Chuiqing slowly edited the message: "Manager Chen, good evening, sorry to bother you. I have thought about what you said that day, and I think we may not be the most suitable person for each other. Please forgive me for rejecting your request." Kindly, I'm really sorry, and I wish you all the best for the future."

In a few short sentences, he clearly expressed his rejection, as well as his gratitude and apology.

Lu Chuiqing took a deep breath and pressed the send button.

After this news was sent, he completely cut off the connection with the past relationship.

For some reason, it was clearly planned this way all along. After rejecting Chen Yuan, Lu Chuiqing felt inexplicably relieved, as if a burden that he had never been aware of had been lifted.

It was only then that Lu Chuiqing suddenly realized that he had been bearing the shackles of the past.

Not long after, Chen Yuan replied to his message. Lu Chuiqing opened it, and there were only two short lines on it: "Can I meet you again this Saturday night? I want to chat with you face to face. "

Lu Chuiqing had only acquiesced in the fact that he was single in front of him when he was having dinner with Chen Yuan a week ago. How could he have expected that his relationship with Xiao Zhan would have progressed just after being confessed by Chen Yuan.Therefore, Lu Chuiqing didn't directly say that he now has a boyfriend - otherwise, it would be like a perfunctory excuse, which is both hurtful and cruel.

Although Chen Yuan was in the past for him, Lu Chuiqing still hoped that everything would be fine for him.

Chen Yuan's response was expected by Lu Chuiqing. Since Chen Yuan wanted to meet him, Lu Chuiqing was willing to speak clearly in person.Everything emotionally should be taken seriously, Lu Chuiqing didn't want Chen Yuan to feel that he was prevaricating him.

Lu Chuiqing immediately agreed to Chen Yuan's meeting again, saying that he would wait for his call then.

Lu Chuiqing didn't intend to tell Xiao Zhan about this matter, after all, he was going to reject the other party, and the two had only been together for a few days, so there was no need to say that these things affected Xiao Zhan's mood, let alone let Xiao Zhan Make unnecessary comments on Chen Yuan.
