Splendid in bag

Lewis himself was surprised by his fascination with Hughes.

He never knew that he had such a strong attachment to Hughes, like an indescribable fascination.But the brief separation made Lewis so worried.They clearly weren't like that before.When did their relationship take such a big turn?

Lewis has never been able to answer this question-how did the turning point in their relationship happen?

How did the two of them turn from lukewarm brothers to worried lovers...

oh my lover...

Lewis found himself using the word "lover" to describe the relationship between him and Hughes.It was simply immoral, and Lewis blushed.

Lewis felt his head was hot, so he hurriedly opened the window to let the cool wind blow his face.

The breeze came in with the windows open, cooling his face from the breeze outside.Looking at the scenery outside the window, Lewis thought secretly, are he and Hughes... lovers?

Back at "Proud Eagle" in the morning, everyone was busy as usual.When the subordinates passed through the transparent wall and saw the tall man in the suit with brown hair, high nose and deep eyes in the president's office, they sometimes mistakenly thought that Hughes was still here.After a closer look, I realized that there was another person in the president's office.

Lewis and Hughes do look alike.Saying that they are not blood brothers really surprised many people.

Lewis once heard people say that he was similar to Hughes, and sometimes, even if he didn't say it explicitly, he could read this message from the eyes of others.But in the past, he and Hughes had very different dressing styles, so it's okay to say that now, in order to adapt to the status of "group president", Lewis has also dressed and combed his hair according to the dresscode, and they look more and more similar.Sometimes, when Lewis stood in the living room in the morning, Lao Liu would be dazed when he looked at him.

Seeing Lewis like this, Lao Liu couldn't help but think of Hughes, thinking of Hughes, he was both angry and emotional: Hughes is not my son!

Lewis knew what everyone was thinking, but he didn't tell others.

However, he still couldn't help sharing his heart with his "lover".Lewis picked up his mobile phone during work breaks and sent Hughes a message: "Everyone says I look like you."

After receiving the message, Hughes replied: "How is it possible?"

Lewis shook his head, and was about to reply "how is that impossible", when he saw another message from Hughes: "You are much prettier than me."

Lewis's face became hot, he turned the phone on the varnished table top, and let out a slight breath.

At this time, the secretary knocked on the door and came in, reminding him that there was a meeting.

Meeting, meeting again!

——Lewis couldn't help but stroked his forehead and sighed.

Lewis felt that being the boss of "Proud Eagle" was too boring, why the meetings were always endless?

Is this the daily life of Hughes?

Lewis came to the meeting room, and everyone was discussing when the Ainia project would stop.Because this is a large project related to overseas investment in infrastructure, which has a huge impact.If you want to do it or stop it, it will not happen overnight.Everyone chatted endlessly, each had their own opinions, and they all waited for Lewis to make a decision.

Lewis already had an idea in mind: this is Hughes' most valued project, and it is impossible to stop it no matter what.

But at the moment, Lewis can't be honest about the idea either.Therefore, Lewis kept silent in a "superior style", nodded from time to time, and said "um", indicating that he "understood", but he did not express his position.

"This decision really needs to be made early. You know, a project of this scale will cost hundreds of millions of dollars." A director said solemnly.

Even Lao Liu said: "Yes, this project should be stopped as soon as possible."

Now that Lao Liu has spoken, Lewis can't pretend to be deaf and dumb, so he said: "Yes, but this project involves all aspects, and there are many contract parties. The most important thing is the agreement we signed with the local government of Ainia. An agreement. It’s not good to just drop the pick and break the contract with the government, right? We still have to talk.”

"Talk? Let's talk again, the money is all burned." The third uncle said anxiously, "Nephew, are you not good at math? Have you seen the liquid funds on the books of our group? For this project we You still owe a lot of debt, don't you know? The president must have the decision and responsibility of the president!"

Lewis nodded slowly. In fact, he also knew this situation, and he also said that he had to be nervous.However, Hughes told him that there is no one in real estate who has sufficient cash flow and is not in debt. It is normal to owe tens of billions, so don't be afraid.

Although Lao Liu also suggested to stop the project immediately, as he said before, he put the interests of the father and son above the interests of the company.Therefore, as soon as he heard his third uncle scolding Lewis loudly, Lao Liu also "helped his relatives and didn't help him", and immediately said to his third uncle, "I think he is very responsible! This project involves the government, of course we must take care of it." Consider it. I think the president is right."

"Well, I've been thinking about this," Lewis made a gesture to calm everyone, "stopping this plan rashly will cause many problems. And as Uncle San mentioned, we have already invested a lot of money. I I think it would be great if we can find someone to take over the order and subsidize the loss in addition to stopping the loss.”

"Who is willing to take over?" Third Uncle muttered.

"Recently, a real estate agent has contacted me." Lewis said, "I plan to go to Mocheng on a business trip in two days and have a detailed talk with him."

"Really?" Everyone beamed when they heard it: Is there such a rich fool in this world?

Old Liu was also surprised when he heard this, and said, "Why haven't I heard you mention it?"

"It's not confirmed yet." Lewis said, "Everything is not clear, so I also want to take this opportunity to examine the strength and sincerity of the other party."

Old Liu also asked, "What company is that?"

Lewis replied: "It's Qianmo Real Estate, I believe you have heard of it."

"I know that." Lao Liu frowned, "They suffered a lot of losses before, can they have this strength? The current market is not good, they are mud bodhisattvas crossing the river, how can they take over such a big project?"

"It was weird to me, too," Lewis said, "so I wanted to go and see it, a field trip."

"You don't care about him!" said the third uncle, "If someone takes over, just throw it away! As long as it is transferred out, it has nothing to do with us. Even if this project rots in the hands of Qianmo Real Estate, it will not do us any harm."

In fact, Lao Liu also agreed with the third uncle's statement in his heart. This hot potato was sold, so there was no need to continue to pay, and it would be good to make up a little bit.But Lewis had just taken office, and people were not in harmony. If even Lao Liu questioned his decision, it would be even more difficult for Lewis to carry out his work in the future.Therefore, Lao Liu naturally wanted to support him, so he said firmly: "Of course you must be cautious in doing business. I agree with the president's opinion. You should go to the field to investigate before making a decision!"

That being the case, it is not good for everyone to say anything more.

Lewis got everyone's "unanimous consent", and recently took a flight to Mocheng.The project leader of Qianmo Real Estate personally received Lewis and arranged for Lewis to live in the most upscale resort "Peach Blossom Garden" in Mocheng.

"Peach Blossom Spring" is also a development project of Qianmo Real Estate, and it is a project they are proud of.The scenery here is really beautiful, there are small holiday houses that seem to be orderly, and there are colorful peach blossom forests.

As soon as Lewis got off the plane, he went to the arranged vacation home first.He also travels lightly, with only one assistant, Mary, who is also an old acquaintance of Lewis.She originally followed Hughes, but after Hughes left, Lewis did not remove her.Everyone said that Lewis was kind-hearted and kind-hearted, and still kept Hughes' old man.In fact, it is impossible for Lewis to cut Hughes' confidant at all.

Mary is a woman, and it is not suitable to live with Lewis, so she arranges to live elsewhere. The staff of "Peach Blossom Spring" helped Lewis carry his bag to the door of the holiday house. Lewis thanked him and gave a tip, then opened the door and entered the house.

"Is the luggage heavy?"

——As soon as Lewis entered the door, he heard a voice from behind the hallway.

A tall man turned out from the back of the entrance and carried Lewis' luggage smoothly.

Lewis smiled and said, "It's not heavy. I'm a big man, can't I lift this?"

Hughes frowned, smiled without saying a word, just walked into the room with Lewis' luggage.

The interior is designed in a relatively Chinese style, with wooden structures as the main structure, bright and clean windows, white walls and brown floors, no gorgeous decorations, and a return to basics.The most eye-catching thing is the hollow wooden windows, which can let in the light and shadow of the peach forest outside.

Lewis walked barefoot on the wooden floor, looking at the back of Hughes, feeling a burst of emotion in his heart, as well as a trace of indescribable sweetness.He and Hughes haven't seen each other for a long time.In order to pretend to be "enemies", they almost never meet each other. Occasionally, they can only contact each other through text messages or video calls. They are obviously in the same city, but they are like long-distance relationships.It's really life and death tormenting people.

So, a few days ago, Hughes sent a message to Lewis asking him to talk to the boss of Qianmo Real Estate and ask him to come to Mocheng.Lewis was puzzled at first, but Hughes replied, "I'll wait for you there."Lewis immediately agreed, and wished he could fly over with his wings.

Now that he saw Hughes, Lewis was a little puzzled and said, "What is your relationship with Qianmo Real Estate?"

Hughes had already reached the second floor with his luggage at this time, but he didn't hear what Lewis said clearly, so he didn't answer.Lewis walked up the wooden ladder, and asked as he walked, "You won't buy the Qianmo real estate, right?"

After listening to Hughes' words, he turned his head and smiled at him: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

The windows were stacked, and the light leaked in, falling on Hughes' smile back.

Lewis was so distracted that he forgot what he had just said, and just stared at Hughes in a daze.

After a while, Hughes opened the door and put the luggage into the bedroom.

Lewis was stunned for a long while before realizing that he had lost his composure. After coughing twice, he also walked into the bedroom and leaned against the door to look at Hughes.Hughes also turned his head and explained to him: "The boss of Qianmo Real Estate is always my old friend."

"Huh?" Lewis didn't react for a while when he heard this sentence.After half a second, he remembered that Hughes was answering his own question.It was Lewis himself who forgot the question first.

"Oh." Lewis touched his chin and said, "Do you still have such a friend?"

"Why?" Hughes asked with a smile, "Do you think people like me can't make friends?"

"It's not that I can't hand in..." Lewis quickly denied, and only said, "I'm just surprised. He has such a good relationship with you? Will he still take over such a project?"

"It wasn't intended for him to take over. There's no way he's going to take over," Hughes said. "It's a cover."

"I see, it's a tactic to delay the attack?" Lewis suddenly realized, "So that we can not stop the cover of the Ainia project for the time being?"

"No," Hughes approached Lewis, the shadow completely submerged Lewis, "it's a cover for us to meet."

Lewis felt the breath of Hughes flowing in the air, startled, and said, "You mean...is this the way for us to meet without letting them know?"

"Yes." Hughes put his hand on the door, his posture was very leisurely - but such a small inadvertent movement seemed to completely trap Lewis.Lewis' back was against the door, one side of his body was leaning against the wall, and on the other side was Hughes' arm, and in front of him was Hughes' tall body - from this point of view, he seemed to be completely cornered by Hughes.

This realization slowed Lewis' breathing.

The silence made the atmosphere ambiguous.

Hughes smiled slightly and said, "Didn't you say you missed me?"

"I..." Lewis took a deep breath and said, "Yes."

"Then it's rare for us to meet now," Hughes said, "What do you think should be better?"

Lewis thought for a while, then answered in a daze, "Let's eat first. I'm a little hungry."

Hughes didn't expect this answer. He was a little surprised, but smiled again, and said helplessly, "Yes, I'm hungry too."

With that said, Hughes took a step back.

Lewis suddenly felt the sea and the sky - without the oppressive feeling of Hughes approaching, Lewis' breathing became smoother.

"Let's go." Lewis said, "Where is the meal? Do you want to cook it yourself?"

"You can go to the restaurant." Hughes said.

"Then let's go to the restaurant!"

Hughes said again: "It can also be delivered to the door."

"Go for a walk," said Lewis, hurrying downstairs.

Hughes followed Lewis, watching Lewis run downstairs and back.

"What's wrong?" Hughes asked.

As Lewis undid his tie, he said, "It's uncomfortable to wear a formal suit. I'll change into a suit first."
