It’s already five o’clock after leaving Juhua, and the appointment time with Lou Xun is six o’clock. Ai Chen turned on the car navigation and looked, and found that this place is quite close to Lou Xun’s work. After thinking about it, he drove the car directly there. Lou patrols outside their unit.

Lou Xun said before that he usually leaves work at 05:30. Ai Chen pulled over the car and checked the time. It was [-]:[-], more than ten minutes before leaving get off work.

Ai Chen tapped on the phone's keyboard while turning on the music, and sent a text message to Lou Xun: I'm outside your unit, come out directly after get off work.

Less than half a minute after the text message was sent, Lou Xun called.

"Are you here to pick me up?" Lou Xun's voice came from the receiver, sounding in a good mood with a smile on his face.

Because Ai Chen knows some plots, now he is forced to have a relationship with him, and he feels like he has some ulterior motives. The other party's words have no other meaning, but it sounds inexplicably malicious to his ears , like flirting.

"Working around here," Ai Chenyu twitched the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, and said casually, "Yesterday you said that you invited guests but didn't say where you invited them, so you just went outside your unit and waited."

"Why, are you still afraid that I will renege on my debt?" Lou Xun asked with a smile.

"Then who knows?" Hearing the other party's obvious joke, Ai Chen felt a lot more relaxed, and said jokingly, "After all, one meal of our president can be worth your monthly salary. If you lie, I will , How shameless I am."

"The last time you invited me to eat hot pot was only three hundred and sixty-six," Lou Xun clicked his tongue, "If I invite you, the price will be ten times higher. Is your president always cheating people like this?"

Ai Chen laughed twice, "Then do you want to invite me?"

"No." Lou Xun said very straightforwardly, "Please don't ask me."

Ai Chen: "..." Why doesn't this person play cards according to common sense?Even if he answered a please, he couldn't really go to eat a meal of three or four thousand.

"Assembly," Lou Xun said without waiting for him to speak, "I think we can leave soon, hang up first."

Before Ai Chen could say a good word, the other party had already hung up the phone.

Ai Chen cursed angrily, threw the phone aside and half-lyed on the seat, intending to close his eyes and rest.

After gathering and disbanding at the same place, they went back to their respective houses. Lou Xun simply packed up his things, and was stopped by the captain when he was about to leave.

"Is there nothing to do tonight?" The captain asked without waiting for him to answer, "Let's eat together. It's been a long time since we had dinner together. You've been here for a month, so you're welcome."

Lou Xun looked distressed, "Unfortunately, I already have an appointment with someone."

The captain lifted his eyelids and revealed a gossiping smile, "Girlfriend?"

"No..." Lou Xunzhi shook his head, "Just... a friend."

"Male or female?" the captain asked.

"...a man." Lou Xun said.

"One is fine," the captain said generously with a wave of his hand, "Let's get together, there are so many people and it's lively, every time a newcomer enters our unit, we will have a meal together, but it's just that I've been so busy recently that I haven't had time to spare Come on, today our team happens to have no staff on duty, so we can get together."

Now that we've talked about this, Lou Xun's refusal seems a little unflattering, he hesitates again and again, and finally has no choice but to nod.

"Juxiangyuan." The team leader said, "It's a Chinese restaurant on the side of the Second Ring Road. We often meet there. Let's go directly after get off work."

Lou Xun nodded again, "Then I'll tell my friend."

As soon as Lou Xun got out of the unit, he saw a striking dark brown Kayan parked on the side of the road. Lou Xun knew without even thinking that it was Ye Wenbai's car.

He walked to the front of the car in twos and threes, raised his hand and knocked twice on the window of the driver's seat. The person who was half lying on the seat with his eyes closed slowly opened his eyes as if he was asleep, and looked through the window. After seeing him, he subconsciously yawned, pointed to the co-pilot next to him, and signaled him to get in the car.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Lou Xun walked around the front of the car and opened the passenger door to get in. "I think you are asleep."

"No..." Ai Chen adjusted the seat, "It's just a little boring..."

"What's wrong with your face?" Lou Xun stared at his bruised and purple face for two seconds, "Don't talk about falling."

"Does it look like it fell?" Ai Chen glanced at the rearview mirror, it was already much better than last night, at least it was not swollen except for bruising.

"Not like." Lou Xun said honestly.

"Learned a few tricks with others." Ai Chen said indifferently, "It's inevitable to have some fun."

Lou Xun nodded to express his understanding, "Remember to protect your face when you compete with others next time."

Ai Chen thought he was trying to say that he was ugly because he was disfigured, so he snorted disapprovingly, "You guys are not afraid of this."

Lou Xun clicked his tongue, "It's also a bruise, and his face heals slower than other parts of his body. After all, he is also the president of a listed company. Don't you feel ashamed to walk around in front of employees with such a face all day long?"

Ai Chen twitched the corner of his mouth, "... Where shall we eat?"

"Juxiangyuan." Lou Xun gave the name of the restaurant kindly, "There is a Chinese restaurant on the side of the second ring road."

"Chinese food is not cheap." Ai Chen clicked on the navigation while talking. It is only two kilometers away from here, which is quite close.

"It's rare to invite the president to dinner at such a big age," Lou Xun joked, "It's too cheap and looks so shabby."

Ai Chen thought he still remembered the thousands of dollars a meal that he said earlier, so he smiled, "I'm just kidding you, you take it seriously."

Lou Xun didn't answer, but asked curiously, "Aren't there any beautiful women to accompany you today?"

Ai Chen was taken aback by the question, subconsciously shook his head, thinking that the other party was joking with him, and smiled to himself, "I mean, I don't always bring beautiful women with me everywhere."

Lou Xun clicked his tongue, as if he didn't believe it, "Then why do you want to ask me out for dinner?"

This question was originally quite normal, but Ai Chen unconsciously felt a little awkward when he heard it, as if it hit the nail on the head, and it just hit Ai Chen's "uneasy" point.

Fortunately, the bruises on his face covered up most of the embarrassment, he smiled and laughed, "Don't you say you are my nobleman, I have to think about hugging your thigh all the time, looking for you to eat and drink if I have anything to do Let's drink and connect with each other."

It was obviously a joke, but Lou Xun didn't quite buy it and asked back, "What's the relationship between us?"

If it weren't for Lou Xun's unfriendly attitude towards him at the beginning and the fact that the last few contacts were quite normal, after hearing this, he would definitely think that the other party was flirting with him in a different way.

Obviously, he didn't want to flirt, and there seemed to be a bit of disdain in his tone, which made Ai Chen feel uncomfortable, but who told him to ask for help from others now?No matter how uncomfortable you have to bear it first.

"The grace of saving lives is beyond the heavens." Ai Chen scolded the surnamed Lou thousands of times in his heart, but he pretended to be calm and calm on his face, smiling in a natural and harmonious way, "I already regard you as a friend."

I expressed my position and attitude in words, I am the president of a listed company, it is a blessing from your ancestors to treat a poor boy like you as a friend, if you dare to refuse, you will be too ignorant.

Lou Xun naturally couldn't compete with him in this kind of sincerity, and said with a smile, "I thought the threshold for your president to make friends is quite high."

"No," Ai Chen jokingly stretched out a hand, "Let's pay the [-] threshold fee first."

"Didn't you repay the two hundred I borrowed from you last time?" Lou Xun said kindly, "There's no need to repay it, just use that instead."

Ai Chen smiled happily at first, and then felt the smell, "Are you reminding me to pay back the money in disguise?"

"I didn't say that," Lou Xun clicked his tongue, "you said it yourself."

"It's really stingy," Ai Chen said, "Our president is generous, I'll pay you back for tonight's dinner, I'll take it."

Lou Xun raised his eyebrows, "Really?"

"Are you still afraid that I won't repay the bill?" Ai Chen was amused by Lou Xun's serious expression, "I'm the CEO of a listed company, and I always keep my promises." As if to show that he kept his word, Ai Chen Chen also puffed out his chest on purpose.

"That's fine," Lou Xun rubbed his chin, "I'd rather be obedient than respectful."

Ai Chen wanted to get closer to him, and he had already made a small calculation in his heart. This time he was the one to treat the guests, so next time he came out to dinner for Lou Xun, he could use an excuse to let him invite him. I can't refuse even if I refuse.

When Ai Chen was complacent about his little cleverness, the car also drove to the destination.

Juxiangyuan is a very authentic Chinese restaurant. You can tell from the names of various dishes on the glass wall on the side of the signboard. Juxiangyuan has a complete range of dishes, including several major cuisines. You can see that it is parked at the door Ai Chen clicked his tongue, thinking that the business of this store is quite booming.

Li Rui, Zhang Chao and the others happened to be patrolling nearby this afternoon. They came directly after receiving the notice from the team leader for a dinner party. When Lou Xun opened the heavy curtain and went in, he happened to see Li Rui alone in front of the air conditioner in the closet. He blew violently, holding half a bottle of coke that was steaming in his left hand.

Zhang Chao and the others have already occupied a table, and Zhao Chuan was twisting a menu in his hand, and beckoned when he saw Lou Xun at the door, "Come, come, let's sit at the same table, I was not here for your treats the first two times , I couldn’t have a drink with you.”

"I can't drink." As Lou Xun said, he pulled up a chair and sat down on Zhang Chao's right hand side, then pulled out the chair on his right hand side and said to Ye Wenbo behind him, "Sit here."

Ai Chen was a little dazed, glanced at the clothes of several guests in the room, guessed that they were Lou Xun's colleagues, he walked to the chair and stood, but did not sit, thinking that Lou Xun was probably chatting with his colleagues for a while, Why don't we wait for him to chatter enough before finding a box or something.

"Come on." Hearing the voice, Li Rui turned his face away from the air conditioner, and when he saw Lou Xun, he smiled and walked over with a Coke in his hand, pointed at Zhang Chao and said, "Don't sit with this kid, I'll kill you soon After speaking, it seems that there is still a person standing next to Lou Xun, and his eyes are slightly sized up, "Hey, you are not that... that..."

"The person who was robbed and scratched with a knife." Ai Chen was anxious for him after listening to him for a long time, so he simply completed the words for him.

"Yes!" Li Rui patted his thigh and looked around, "Come to eat?"

"We are together." Lou Xun finished speaking and looked to the right, "Today we have a group dinner."

Ai Chen blinked, "?"

"You said that you invited me," Lou Xun said, "it's too late to regret it now."

I rely on!Ai Chen stared at Lou Xun with a complicated mood, and said to himself that you invited me to come to dinner, I don't even know you well, and you brought a lot of colleagues with you, what's the matter!

"It was a short notice." Lou Xun saw what he was thinking, and patted the chair next to him to signal him to sit down. "Aren't you a friend? I really can't refuse the leader's words. You should go to the grassroots to understand the people's sentiments."

Go to the grassroots level of fart to understand the people's feelings of shit, I am not a country/family/leader/leader.
