Chapter 4
He didn’t catch up the next day, Lu Shangtian left before dawn and didn’t call him, Li Sui woke up and asked Sister Lu to find out that there was an important ribbon-cutting ceremony in the suburbs today.
“Let’s eat breakfast first. The fresh milk just arrived on the table. Boss Lu said that you have leg cramps at night, so you should drink more.”
“I have leg cramps?” Li Sui didn’t know.
Sister Lu smiled cryptically: “Don’t boys tend to get cramps when they run around, it will be too late if you don’t make up more now.”
It was only then that Li Sui recalled that he was in a daze last night, as if he felt a little uncomfortable. He is a person who is not very sensitive to pain, and this level does not affect his sleep. Probably woke up Lu Shang who was in a deep sleep.
“Thank you, Sister Lu.” Li Sui couldn’t help but feel a little guilty. Originally, Lu Shang was not in good health, and he even disturbed others to sleep. If he was not so well-mannered, he would have kicked him out of bed a long time ago. How could he care for him? He prepares milk to drink.
“You should call me Aunt Lu. At my age, Boss Lu can barely bear calling me sister. At your age, it’s not too bad to be my son.”
“Have you known Boss Lu for a long time?”
“It’s almost ten years.”
Li Sui thought for a while, and asked, “Then Boss Lu’s previous ones, were you also taking care of them?”
“Before?” Aunt Lu was stunned for a moment, then she reacted and laughed, “What was before, who are you, Boss Lu?”
Now it’s Li Sui’s turn to be stunned, and tentatively said: “I’m not the only one, is he, or doesn’t he live here, somewhere else?” He thought of Li Yan while talking, Li Yan is a standard A playboy, surrounded by clouds of beauties, the third and the fourth are like the sixth courtyard of the deep palace, wishing to flip the cards every day to decide where to sleep at night.When Lu Shang mentioned nurturing, he took it for granted that he was probably one of these little threes and fours, who won the big boss’s smile and then abandoned him like a piece of paper, but now Aunt Lu’s reaction doesn’t seem to be pretending, but he feels nervous instead. .
Aunt Lu was amused by him, and said: “What are you thinking about every day, you little head? Boss Lu is a decent person, unlike those men who spend their days and nights outside. I have stayed at Lu’s house for so many years, and I have never seen him with anyone. I have approached, let alone brought someone back to live.”
After finishing speaking, she saw Li Sui’s expression of still disbelief, and said again: “Don’t tell me, I don’t have any other problems, but there is a lump in my heart. My ex-husband is a rascal, and the local dialect is a playboy.” I just divorced him with my son and moved here, if Boss Lu is also this kind of person, I would never have served him for so many years.”
Li Sui was stunned for a while, he only knew that Lu Shang was different from the people he knew before, that Lu Shang didn’t like excitement, and he didn’t bother to hang out with rouge and vulgar fans, and spent most of his time at work, but he really didn’t know that his private life was actually so clean.
“You, just live in peace of mind,” Aunt Lu comforted him by sandwiching two pieces of carrot cake, “He is in poor health, and he really lacks someone to take care of him. I advised him to find a girl before. He said that he had no fate with the girl, until the last time he saw him bring you back… Hey, this is not last year’s Chinese New Year, Lao Yuan had a lot to say to me, I didn’t expect it to be true, but ah, girl You may not be able to take good care of him, but I think you are fine.”
Aunt Lu’s words were a bit vague, but Li Sui understood that Lu Shang didn’t just want to play something new on a whim, he was born gay.During Li Sui’s long and complicated growth process, he had always been confused about his sexual orientation. He didn’t think it was a big deal for men to like men. He had seen many of them in the bar in the past few years.In the initial cognition, whether the object is a man or a woman, it doesn’t make much difference to him at all. Li Sui has never liked anyone, and has never been liked by anyone. Lu Shang is the first person who has an intersection with him. Fortunately, it also made him extremely uneasy.
“Don’t be dazed, eat more quickly, Boss Lu will pick you up later.” Aunt Lu urged.
Merchant Lu didn’t come, so he asked the driver to drive a car to pick him up. As soon as he entered the gate, he looked up and saw a blue sign on the building, with the words “Dongyan Group” underneath it.The high-level office is located on the top floor, and Uncle Yuan only escorted him to the elevator entrance.He walked through the partition alone, and as soon as he got to the middle, he met the flow of people coming out of the meeting room, and the one who walked in the middle was surrounded by Lu Shang.
It was the first time Li Sui saw Lu Shang at work. He was wearing a dark suit, standing in the crowd with a calm and serious look, occasionally tilting his head to listen, or interrupting with his hand, exuding an unquestionable aura in his gestures.
The pair of stern eyes caught him from afar, and the sharpness subsided a little, and he called to a female secretary beside him: “Xiao Yang, take him to my office and bring him some fruit.”
The female secretary responded immediately, and the people around Lu Shang stopped because of the sudden interruption, and looked at him appreciatively.
“I still have some things to do, you go to my office and wait for me, huh?” Lu Shang stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder when he turned around.
Li Sui’s heart tightened, and he quickly lowered his head and let out a “hmm”.
The female secretary brought him a large plate of strawberries and poured coffee, Li Sui didn’t taste the aroma, but felt it was very bitter.
“It seems you’re not used to drinking it.” After she finished speaking, she went out to change to a cup of milk tea, and when she came in, she found that Li Sui had a few more plush toys in her hands.It’s a bunch of green-shelled tortoises, five or six of them, the same shape but different sizes, like a family portrait.
This was the toy of the seven-year-old daughter of another high-level executive. It was left behind when he was leaving. Li Sui stared at the little turtles scattered everywhere for a long time, inexplicably suffering from obsessive-compulsive disorder. They are neatly piled up.As a secretary, it was her negligence to bother customers to pack toys for her. She was about to put them away in a desperate manner when Lu Shang stopped her.
“Give it to him.”
The female secretary was frightened, and she had no idea when Lu Shang appeared at the door, but the latter didn’t look at her, and looked directly behind her, with a deep and focused expression.The gossip and rumors flashed through her mind, and she suddenly felt like a thunderbolt, and immediately opened the door with a pale face and went out.
“What happened to her?” Li Sui raised his head and asked.
Lu Shang closed the office door indifferently: “The newly recruited interns this year are a little edgy, don’t mind.”
“I don’t seem to have asked you, Li Sui, do you mind if I make our relationship public?” He sat down opposite Li Sui.
The first time Li Sui heard Lu Shang call his name, he stuttered unconsciously: “Boss Lu…do you mind?”
“I don’t mind.” Lu Shang said bluntly.
“Then I don’t mind either.”
“Why, aren’t you afraid that others will look down on you?”
“My life was saved by you, not others.”
A look of surprise appeared on Lu Shang’s face, he didn’t expect Li Sui to distinguish so clearly, he just picked him up casually, Li Sui separated him from the others and listed him as the most special one.Such a simple and almost silly remark made it impossible for Lu Shang to say what he originally wanted to say.
“Are you still worried that I will send you back to Li Yan?” Lu Shang tried to ask.
Li Sui unconsciously tightened his hand holding the toy.
Seeing this, Lu Shang sighed softly, lowered his head and poked a strawberry with a bamboo stick, handed it to him, and said indifferently: “Your life is in your own hands, it’s up to you to go or stay, so don’t worry too much. One day you figure it out and want to leave, just tell me, and I will take you to a safe place.”
After speaking, he smiled slightly, “This sentence is valid for a long time.”
Li Sui stuffed a mouthful of strawberries, and upon hearing this, a sore throat welled up in his throat.Lu Shang was sharper than he imagined. His tentative and flattering thoughts were exposed to him early in the morning, but he saw it through without telling him, and even told him indifferently that it’s okay, everything is fine. be accepted.Li Sui suddenly felt that he was like the tortoise whose shell had been lifted in his hand, and there was no way to hide the uneasiness and desire huddled under the protective shell.
At this moment someone knocked on the door and came in, interrupting their conversation.
“Mr. Lu, Yan Ke called back, and he agreed to use 6% of the equity…” Halfway through speaking, he stopped abruptly.
Lu Shang waved his hand: “He is not an outsider, you continue.”
Walking in was a short man wearing glasses, with a rosy complexion and a shrewd look all over his body. He had never seen Li Sui before, so he hesitated for a while, and leaned closer to Lu Shang’s ear, lowering his voice.
Li Sui couldn’t hear their words clearly, and he wasn’t interested. He only saw Lu Shang’s expression of joy on his face after he finished speaking.
“Accept his request.”
The man with glasses looked worried: “In this way, our shares will account for 40%, will it be too eye-catching?”
Lu Shang thought for a while: “Deal with him in private first, and the specific changes will be postponed until next year.”
The man with glasses nodded: “Then I’ll draw up the contract.”
When he went out, Lu Shang said again: “Wei Lan, by the way, let Yan Ke know that he lent me his daughter’s toy.”
Xu Weilan was dumbfounded: “What?”
Lu Shang held the little turtle and shook it, Xu Weilan laughed and cursed.
The heavy snow showed no signs of stopping, the two of them went out from the gate at noon, and Li Sui saw many cars loading and unloading champagne and red wine at the gate, so he realized that today was the last working day of the year before, and there was a staff reunion banquet in the evening.
It’s New Years Eve, he realized.
Lu Shang took him to a martial arts gym, which was on the mountainside, surrounded by a bamboo forest, and the environment was quiet.Li Sui walked in and found that it was full of people, most of them were men, dressed casually, and some were shirtless. The room smelled strongly of alcohol and tobacco, unlike the gentle white-collar workers in the company, the men here obviously did not Sitting in the office.
“Everyone has been waiting for a long time.” As soon as Lu Shang arrived, the people inside stood up to say hello, and the leader was a burly man named Zuo Chao.
“Ah Zuo, let them have a feast,” Lu Shang ordered, “Let’s talk while eating.”
At a big round table for 30 people, Lu Shang sat at the front seat, and Li Sui was next to him. Originally, this seat belonged to Zuo Chao. When he saw that Lu Shang had brought someone, he gave it up symbolically. Unexpectedly, Lu Shang did not object. .This move basically acquiesced in some things, and people with winks couldn’t help but look at each other, tacitly knowing each other.
Throughout the ages, the focus of banquets is nothing more than toasts, but here is special, the guests come over one cup after another, but Lu Shang just holds the teacup and smiles back, but no one cares about it, everyone is happy. look in it.It can be seen that Lu Shang has a long friendship with these people, at least to the point where they can be exempted from politeness.
“Come on, little brother, Boss Lu can’t drink, I propose to you a glass.” Zuo Chao is an acquaintance, seeing Li Sui only eating with his head down, he couldn’t help opening a bottle of white wine to tease him.
Li Sui subconsciously went to look at Lu Shang, but the latter looked at him with a smile and did not give any instructions.
“I don’t know how to drink…” Li Sui whispered.
“Don’t know how to drink? It’s okay, big brother will teach you, drinking is a thing of the first time, and the second time is familiar!” As he spoke, he was going to pour it for him.
Seeing that the wine was almost overflowing the glass, Li Sui hurriedly reached out to stop it: “Enough is enough, I can’t drink so much.”
“Come on,” Zuo Chao touched his wine glass, “Brother, let’s do it first.” After speaking, he raised his head, drank it clean after a few sips, and turned the glass upside down to show everyone, winning applause.
This glass of wine is worthless, Li Sui was shocked by his drinking capacity, but also a little bit embarrassed, but the people next to him were still encouraging him: “Drink it quickly, if you don’t drink it, you will not give Brother Zuo face.”
“Yes, drink quickly…”
“The people brought by Boss Lu can’t embarrass Boss Lu…”
Li Sui was at a loss, turned around and saw that Lu Shang maintained a faint smile, and had no intention of helping him out, and was not sure whether to let him drink or not, so he had to pick up the cup and bite the bullet Take a sip.The baijiu was pungent, and his nose and eyebrows were wrinkled as soon as he took it, and his face was flushed with choking.
The people below all slapped the table and laughed wildly, even Lu Shang smiled and shook his head.
“Little brother, that’s not how you drink wine, take a big sip, you have to take a big sip.” Zuo Chao was anxious on the sidelines.
“It’s almost done.” Lu Shang stopped gently.
After the initial stimulation passed, Li Sui belatedly tasted a bit of aftertaste, feeling that it was very mellow.
“Boss Lu, why are you so nervous, a little wine won’t kill him.” Someone laughed.
“That’s right, it’s Chinese New Year’s Eve. When you’re drunk, it’s time to serve you, Boss Lu.”
As soon as the yellow accent opened, the atmosphere below suddenly changed. Men and men gathered together, nothing more than a few topics. Only Lu Shang brought his family here, so Li Sui suddenly became everyone’s key molesting target. .
But the person concerned seemed to stay out of the matter, and competed with the glass of wine in his hand. Li Sui was not happy drinking, but the first sip seemed to be addicted. While the people below were talking, he poured down the few taels of yellow soup in his hand Stomach.
“Oh, yes.” Zuo Chao immediately applauded him.
Lu Shang smiled and patted him on the back: “Don’t force it.”
Li Sui felt quite good, he didn’t feel dizzy or uncomfortable. Although he had been in the bar for so many years, he had never drank alcohol strangely, and the novelty was greater than the timidity for a while.
Jiu Zhuang was timid, he poured another glass, and went to pay Zuo Chao back: “Brother Zuo, I respect you.”
“Little brat, yes, you have courage.” Zuo Chao laughed loudly, touched him with a full glass, and drank it down.
As soon as the precedent was set, people came rushing to toast, and Li Sui knew that it wasn’t that they didn’t like changing glasses, it’s just that no one was pouring them.
Lu Shang only reminded him a few words at the beginning, and then he let go of it, and discussed business matters with Zuo Chao with his head down.
Throughout the year, there are only two days to relax. Naturally, no one cares about identity issues. A meal is a feast for the guests and the host. Not only is the wine on the table drunk, but even a few bottles of Zhuyuan’s treasures are stolen.After talking with Lu Shang, Zuo Chao held his stomach and said that he would withdraw first: “Where did you dig this treasure? It’s so drinkable that even I have to bow down. No, I have to put some water. You look good on people.” Come on, don’t let him pour all my brothers down.”
Hearing this, Lu Shang turned his head, and a large area was turned down as far as he could see, leaving Li Sui alone, tall and thin, wandering around the table with a wine bottle in his hand, taking turns to check who else was not drunk.
“Li Sui.” He said.
The person who was called turned his head and stared at him dumbly, his eyes seemed to be steamy. Lu Shang knew that the child was actually drunk, but he just didn’t have a fit.
“Come here.” He waved.
Li Sui moved over like a wandering soul, and when there were two steps left, his legs softened and he knelt down, hugging Lu Shang’s knee: “We’re all on the ground.”
This action was like a golden retriever begging for praise. Lu Shang caught him and comforted him softly: “Well, are you uncomfortable?”
Li Sui shook his head, and said, “No one is feeding you anymore.”
Lu Shang was silent for a while, stretched out his hand to check his pupils, and said, “No one here will feed me.”
“You sleep with me.” Li Sui suddenly grabbed his hand.
Lu Shang was a little surprised, and asked, “Why did I sleep with you?”
There was a bit of grievance in Li Sui’s eyes: “Don’t send me away…”
This was talking about the conversation in the morning. The child probably misunderstood, thinking that what Lu Shang said was to distance himself from him.Lu Shang thought about it seriously for a while, pulled him up, patted his dirty knees, and thought it was funny: “Will you not send you away when you sleep?”
Li Sui squinted his eyes, as if he couldn’t turn his head around, Lu Shang didn’t intend to continue to entangle him with the issue of whether he could sleep or not, so he raised his hand and asked the waiter to come over with a wet tissue, first helped him wipe his face clean, and then A room was prepared upstairs for him to rest.
“little turtle……”
“The little turtle is in the car.” The drunk man couldn’t reason and could only follow along. Seeing that he was staring at the door and refusing to leave, Lu Shang had to call the driver and ask the driver to bring him the little tortoise toy.
Zuo Chao, who returned from releasing the water, watched the whole process at the door, and said with a smile, “I said you picked up a son and came back?”
Lu Shang pinched the center of his brows and sighed, “Let’s get down to business.”
Zuo Chao restrained his smile and said: “Director Wu from the West District contacted me yesterday, saying that he had recently caught a gun trafficking case and most of the items were confiscated, but according to the perpetrator’s confession, a small number of guns still flowed into the black market. , I found a familiar face among the traders, it’s from Liu Xingtian.”
Lu Shang’s face darkened: “Are you sure?”
“No mistake, that man’s brother-in-law snatched one of my brother’s women, and fought over it back then. Isn’t Liu Xingtian a shareholder of your Dongyan? Why did he buy a gun? Anyway, the more I think about it, the more I feel that something is wrong. You should pay more attention to his movements recently.”
Lu Shang thought for a while in silence, and said, “Arrange a few people around the Lu family, and keep an eye on them when I’m not around.” After speaking, he raised his head and motioned for the room where Li Sui was, and said, “If he goes out, send two people follow.”
“I know,” Zuo Chao nodded, “Then what should you do?”
“He still can’t make waves now. I plan to buy Yan Ke’s shares in the next year. If there is no accident, next year he will definitely use the excuse of expanding new markets to force me to take over the mess in Haikou.”
“Your company’s transfer of shares requires the approval of the shareholders’ meeting. Can he watch your family dominate?”
“No, so I cut off the capital chain of a few old guys. They won’t make trouble with money. Liu Xingtian only has 20% of the shares, and it’s useless to object.”
“I don’t understand the affairs of your company. Although it is good to have a large shareholding, it is easy to get involved. You have to be careful.”
After that, they parted ways.Dongyan Group also has a large banquet in the evening. As the person in charge of the company, Lu Shang must attend.
As in previous years, the most lively part of the annual meeting will always be the lucky draw. This year’s prizes are directly prepared by the logistics department. Lu Shang usually doesn’t care about these small things. They have a budget, and they can buy whatever they want.
So he got a box of Okamoto 001.
