The expression on Lu Yi's face was as usual, as if Tao Ye just asked him where he was going for a walk after lunch. He picked up the spoon, stirred the porridge in the bowl lightly, and said softly:

"Do you care about this?"

Tao Ye remained silent.He now feels that Lu Yi's brain circuit is not normal, although he felt that this person was not normal from the very beginning.

Seeing that Tao Ye didn't answer, Lu Yi put down the spoon, got up and walked to the window, and opened the curtain——

It was already night, and outside the 99th floor, the lights of City S were flickering, all under the feet of this skyscraper.

Looking against the light, the appearance of Lu Yi standing by the window is not much different from the scene in Tao Ye's dream.

"Strictly speaking, we are not living people, are we?" Lu Yi said slowly, looking at the lights of cars flowing on the main road of S City outside the window.

Tao Ye continued to remain silent noncommittal, his hands hidden under the quilt clenched into fists.

"So the relationship between the members of the Human World Office probably cannot be measured by human emotions." Lu Yi continued.

Tao Ye pursed his lips and interrupted him: "Get to the point, Director Lu."

He felt that Lu Yi seemed to have been a leader for too long, and he liked to talk in a twist and turn, and didn't answer questions directly.

It was almost winter, and the air outside the window was already very cold, and the water vapor in the house condensed on the glass, reflecting the blurred outlines of the furnishings in the house.

Lu Yi laughed at himself and said, "When you killed me that night, I was no longer a living person in the strict sense. Not long after that, I was transferred to City S."

"Then why do you want to read my profile?" Tao Ye continued to ask.

Lu Yi turned around, looked at Tao Ye and said innocently: "To be a good leader, you must understand every subordinate."

"..." Tao Ye was completely speechless.

At the same time, his clenched fist hidden under the quilt loosened.Some people really take being a ghost leader as a serious business?

"Have a drink." Lu Yi persuaded.

Tao Ye chose to believe what Lu Yi said just now.In fact, he had no reason not to believe it.

Strictly speaking, the members of the Human World Office will not "die".

Human bodies and social relations are just tools for carrying out tasks for members of the Human World Office. If this tool is out of hand or accidentally damaged, it can be replaced with another one.

So Lu Yi really has no reason to persecute him.

Tao Ye picked up the spoon, scooped up a spoonful of porridge, and put it in his mouth.

The sweet fragrance, and the soft and glutinous taste diffused in Tao Ye's mouth, which instantly aroused Tao Ye's appetite.

From last night to now, Tao Ye hasn't eaten a single bite.

After Bao Feng inhaled a bowl of porridge, Tao Ye felt that he was still unsatisfied, so he raised his head and asked:

"Any more?"

Seeing that Tao Ye had recovered a lot, Lu Yi stepped forward to take away the bowl on the table and said:

"Come on, let's go out to eat."

Tao Ye:? ? ?

Isn't it true, there is such a bodhisattva boss who invites people to dinner every day?

Tao Ye, who was wary of Lu Yi, got dressed by accident, and followed Lu Yi out of the house.

Lu Yi's car stopped at the entrance of a Cantonese-style tea restaurant.

"You go in first, I'll park the car, old Xu Chenzhu and the others are here." Lu Yi said to Tao Ye.

Tao Ye nodded, unfastened his seat belt, got out of the car, and walked into the restaurant.

The waiter led Tao Ye to the pre-booked box, and Shen Zhu and Lao Xu had already arrived.

Seeing Tao Ye come in, Shen Zhu asked with concern:

"Are you feeling better? Lu Chu said you fainted, and I've been worried for a whole day."

Tao Ye started nonsense literary coping: "I feel better, so I feel better."

Shen Zhu covered her mouth and laughed, teasingly said: "Young man, spend less time online and read more."

Tao Ye laughed awkwardly and sat down on the seat.Old Xu on the side said, "Little Tao, I have some good news for you today."

No matter how good the good news is, it can't beat Tao Ye's bad mood when he finds out that Lu Yi is an old acquaintance.Tao Ye picked up the cup in front of him and took a sip of hot tea, but didn't say anything, waiting for Lao Xu to continue talking.

Old Xu didn't care about Tao Ye's attitude, and continued:

"There is news from your sister's soul."

Hearing these words, Tao Ye tightened his grip on the cup, and he raised his head to look at Old Xu:

"what?"

Old Xu smiled triumphantly, motioned the waiter to go out, and said:

"The nearest road asked us to pay attention to a soul named Tao Yi. No, a colleague in the city C next door sent news that a soul named Tao Yi had been caught."

"Where is she now?" Tao Ye's voice unconsciously carried a hint of urgency.

Old Xu showed some embarrassment on his face, and said:

"It's still being held in City C."

Just as Tao Ye wanted to ask how he could take Tao Yi's soul back, Lu Yi came in from the door.As he untied the scarf around his neck, he explained:

"This kind of situation is relatively rare. City C handled it carefully and reported it to the Ghost World Management Office."

"And then?" Tao Ye was anxious.

Lu Yi sat down at the seat next to Tao Ye, put his phone on the table, and said without haste:

"Don't worry. The Ghost Realm Administration said that our office has violated the regulations. After the violations are punished, Tao Yi's soul will be sent here."

Shen Zhu stood up, poured a cup of tea for Lu Yi, and said to Tao Ye with a smile:

"You are called reincarnation. There are so many offices in the world. The best leader is our office."

Old Xu nodded and echoed:

"Yes, Lu Chu made a special trip to City C today for this matter."

Tao Ye looked at Lu Yi in disbelief, and it took him a long time to say with difficulty: "Thank you."

Lu Yi shook his head and said with a smile, "It should."

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was very strange, Shen Zhu called the waiter and asked the waiter to order.

"What do you want to eat?" Lu Yi flipped through the menu and asked the three people present.It seemed that he was asking the three of them, but in fact his eyes stayed on Tao Ye.

Tao Ye didn't speak.

Shen Zhu looked at Lu Yi, then at Tao Ye, and said, "Order what Tao Ye likes, what do you like?"

Old Xu, who is not very good at reading air, interjected: "Do you drink alcohol?"

Lu Yi waved his hand and excused Tao Ye: "Tao Ye is not feeling well today."

"Oh..." Old Xu collapsed back into his chair with a disappointed expression on his face. He turned to Tao Ye and said, "You can order whatever you want. It's a team building event after all. If you don't have wine, you have to eat hard food." .”

The eyes of the three people all fell on Tao Ye, which made Tao Ye feel his scalp tingling. He dragged the menu from Lu Yi, flipped through it twice, raised his head and said to the waiter:

"One of the ones on this menu."

The waiter showed surprise on his face, which was exactly the same as the expression of the barbecue stall owner that night, and confirmed with a doubtful tone:

"Sir, do you mean you want everything on the menu?"

Tao Ye pinched the not-so-thick menu. He estimated that there were only thirty or forty dishes on the menu, and said with certainty, "I want all of them."

The waiter still didn't believe it, and asked Lu Yi again: "Sir, did the gentleman say that you want all the dishes on the menu?"

Lu Yi smiled and said, "Yes, I want them all."

The waiter held the menu and went out with a look of disbelief.Shen Zhu and Lao Xu were left stunned, looking at each other.

"Xiao Tao, this meal is not fun. Although Lu Chu looks rich, his salary is actually not much. Didn't he get fined because of you a few days ago?" Old Xu took a big sip of water to suppress his shock.

Before Tao Ye could speak, Lu Yi followed what Old Xu said:

"Tao Ye is not feeling well today, let's serve up all the dishes to see which dish suits his appetite."

Old Xu took a sour look at Tao Ye, saw that he was still playing with his mobile phone with his head down as if nothing had happened, and said:

"The road is not good for us, but good for talented newcomers."

Shen Zhu pinched Lao Xu's thigh fiercely under the table, and signaled him to shut up quickly with his eyes.

It was only then that Lao Xu realized that he had missed something, opened his mouth, and did not speak again.

The speed of serving food in this restaurant was extremely fast. When Lao Xu was observing Tao Ye's expression resentfully, the first dish - pork belly soup with fish maw had already been served.

Tao Ye heard Lao Xu say that he was very talented, but judging from Shen Zhu's expression, it seemed that he shouldn't know about it.

He felt that it was not good to ask now, so he didn't ask inappropriately, and kept his head down all the time.

The happy dinner time is coming to an end.

Tao Ye rubbed his chubby belly, looking at the unfinished food on the table with unfulfilled interest.

Adhering to the principle of not wasting, Shen Zhu asked the waiter to pack up the leftover food, Lao Xu and Tao Ye each had half of it, and took it home for supper.

After the group left the restaurant, Lao Xu took a taxi back to his residence. Shen Zhu later had an appointment with a friend and was picked up by the friend, leaving only Tao Ye and Lu Yi.

"How to go back?" Lu Yi asked, looking at the big and small bags in Tao Ye's hand.

Tao Ye lowered his head and turned on his phone, checked the route back on the map, and asked leisurely, "Let's take the subway."

Lu Yi was noncommittal, looking at the boy who was half a head shorter than himself in front of him, who seemed to be thinking about something, after a while, he proposed:

"There are a lot of things, let me take you back."

The handles of the bags given by the restaurant were very thin, and Tao Ye felt his hands were numb, but even so, he didn't want to go back in Lu Yi's car.

It is undeniable that Lu Yi did help him a lot.

It never occurred to him that Lu Yi would always remember Tao Yi's affairs, let alone that Lu Yi would make a special trip to City C for his affairs.

However, since he knew Lu Yi's identity, he couldn't get along with Lu Yi like an ordinary boss and subordinate.

"Then please beg me." Tao Ye put down his phone, looked up at Lu Yi and said with a smile.

At dinner today, Tao Ye was very curious about what the "extraordinary talent" that Old Xu mentioned was.

Lu Yi's eyes suddenly filled with tenderness, he lowered his head and chuckled, and turned to look into Tao Ye's eyes seriously:

"Please, go back in my car."

Looking into Lu Yi's eyes, Tao Ye felt the nerves all over his body tremble suddenly, like a kitten that has never been treated tenderly by humans suddenly fell into a soft embrace.

"Disgusting." Tao Ye looked away awkwardly, stopped looking at Lu Yi, and walked forward carrying the packing box on his own.

After walking for a long time, he found that Lu Yi hadn't followed him. When he turned around to confirm Lu Yi's position, he found that Lu Yi was following him, two or three meters away from him.

"The parking lot is over there." Lu Yi smiled and pointed to the left.

Tao Ye scraped his forehead with his index finger knuckles, and said stiffly:

"I know."

After finishing speaking, Tao Ye walked quickly to the parking lot on the left like a kitten who was caught stealing food.
