Chapter 136 Look at Yourself
Chapter 136 Look at Yourself
Lu Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief but was not in a hurry to leave.
It was almost noon anyway, so I might as well have lunch before leaving, so I called the waiter to order.
There weren't many people at the moment, so the meal came quickly. Just as she was about to start eating, a man walked up to her table and stood there.
Lu Jinyu looked up and saw that it was Shang Yonglin.
"Mr. Shang?!"
Lu Jinyu was very surprised, but she quickly realized that he probably knew that Zhong Lizhen was looking for her, so he came over.
Thinking of this, Lu Jinyu smiled and said, "Mr. Shang is well-informed."
Shang Yonglin didn't answer, but just asked: "Can I sit down?"
"of course."
Lu Jinyu nodded, and Shang Yonglin sat down opposite her.
She was embarrassed to let Shang Yonglin watch her while she ate, so she asked, "Boss Shang, would you like to eat something?"
Shang Yonglin didn't answer, but directly said to the waiter not far away: "Set B."
Lu Jinyu was a little surprised when she heard this. She didn't know what Set B was without looking at the menu, but Shang Yonglin actually ordered it directly.
"Mr. Shang often comes to this store?"
“It’s my family’s shop.”
After hearing Shang Yonglin's answer, Lu Jinyu was stunned, and then couldn't help laughing.
Zhong Lizhen actually made an appointment with her at a store owned by a merchant, but Shang Yonglin found out and rushed over. It was really funny no matter how you thought about it.
"What are you laughing at?"
Shang Yonglin asked with a frown, and Lu Jinyu shook his head.
"nothing."
Shang Yonglin didn't believe it was nothing, but he couldn't understand Lu Jinyu's funny point.
Last time he said he was investing in a gym, she laughed. This time he said the store belonged to him, and she laughed again.
But he didn't think it was funny at all. It was obviously a very normal and ordinary thing.
But he didn't mind Lu Jinyu laughing.
Lu Jinyu restrained his smile a little, and then asked, "So Mr. Shang rushed over because he was afraid that I would talk nonsense?"
"No, I came to apologize."
"apologize?"
"Yes, I apologize for letting my family harass you."
Lu Jinyu was stunned when he heard this. After a pause, he said, "Mr. Shang, you don't have to apologize. It's nothing. We were just chatting."
"Anyway, I'll treat you to this meal as an apology."
As they were talking, the waiter brought the meal that Shang Yonglin ordered.
Lu Jinyu smiled helplessly: "Okay, then I won't be polite."
After that she started eating.
Shang Yonglin saw that she looked normal and didn't say anything else. He lowered his head and started eating in silence.
.
In fact, this is how it all started.
After receiving the specialties sent by Lu Jinyu, Shang Yonglin took them home.
Last time I got one pack and put it on the coffee table, and this time I got another pack and put it on the coffee table as well.
Shang Yonglin sat on the sofa and looked at the two packages of specialties thoughtfully.
He had never received anything like this before, so he didn't know how to eat it.
Although all he had to do was tear open the package and put it in his mouth, the problem was... he had never eaten something vacuum-packed like this, so he was a little worried.
Just then, the servant, Aunt Chen, prepared dinner and came to call him to eat, so he casually asked, "Aunt Chen, have you ever eaten these?"
Aunt Chen looked carefully at the things on the coffee table, then picked up one of them and said, "I've eaten this before, it's quite delicious, it's a specialty there. The other one is also a specialty, but I haven't eaten it, but it looks pretty good."
After that, Aunt Chen asked, "Who gave this to the young master?"
"Colleague." Shang Yonglin uttered these two words, then stood up and walked to the restaurant for dinner.
.
I thought the matter ended here.
Unexpectedly, during the Spring Festival, Shang's father and mother suggested spending the Spring Festival at Shang Yonglin's villa.
Shang Yonglin usually lives alone. Since he now works in Qi Guang's company, he moved to his current villa to be closer to the company.
When Shang's father and mother arrived at the villa, Shang Yonglin had not yet finished get off work, so they were wandering around the villa.
Seeing the two packages of local specialties, Shang's mother asked Chen's mother: "What are these?"
Chen Ma replied: "Young Master said it was a souvenir given by a colleague."
Shang's mother looked at it over and over again and found it strange, so she asked again: "Is this colleague a man or a woman?"
"I'm not sure." Chen Ma answered truthfully.
"Go ahead."
After Chen's mother left, Shang's mother sat on the sofa, looked at the two bags of specialties and began to think.
Finally, I came to a conclusion: it must have been given by a woman, and they are very close!
Otherwise, why would he bring it home? Shang Yonglin had never brought such a thing home before.
Shang's mother immediately became alarmed and after thinking for a while, she told her sister Zhong Lizhen about it.
This led to Zhong Lizhen’s conversation with Lu Jinyu later.
.
After having lunch with Lu Jinyu, Shang Yonglin went to the Shang family’s mansion.
Shang's mother had just finished lunch. She gave the servants some instructions and was about to go upstairs to rest for a while.
When I turned around, I saw Shang Yonglin walking into the room with an expressionless face, so I asked in surprise: "Yonglin, why are you back at this time?"
Shang Yonglin was not one to beat around the bush, so he asked directly, "Mom, you asked my aunt to go find my colleague, right?"
Shang's mother didn't expect him to know so quickly. She was stunned at first, and then said calmly: "Then let's talk about your colleague."
After saying that, he walked to the sofa in the living room and sat down.
Shang Yonglin also followed, frowning slightly and said, "There's nothing to say, we're just colleagues."
"Really? Then why did you take the things she gave you home?"
"Is it weird to take home something someone gave you as a gift? You wouldn't just throw something someone gave you into the trash, would you?"
Shang's mother was choked by Shang Yonglin's words. After all, even if she wanted to throw it away, she would take it home and throw it away.
She had no choice but to say, "Why are you in such a hurry to explain? Are you hiding something?"
Shang Yonglin felt speechless and walked to the sofa and sat down.
"You're overthinking it. There's nothing wrong. Why bother with this..."
"Am I doing this in vain?!"
Shang's mother was shocked to hear what Shang Yonglin said. The well-behaved boy had disappeared since no one knew when.
"Yonglin, why are you like this now? How dare you talk back to me?"
"I'm not contradicting you. I'm just talking about the facts. You did something wrong in this matter."
Even after hearing Shang's mother's complaints, Shang Yonglin did not give in, and Shang's mother couldn't help but frown.
At this moment, Shang's mother's cell phone lit up.
She picked it up and took a look, and unexpectedly what she received was a photo of Shang Yonglin and Lu Jinyu having lunch together.
In the photo, Lu Jinyu was smiling like a flower, and Shang Yonglin just looked at her quietly, his eyes were much softer than now.
It was the first time that Shang's mother saw Lu Jinyu's appearance.
I wouldn’t say she’s very beautiful, but her makeup, expression, and body posture all look comfortable and she has a generous temperament.
Although the clothes are of average quality, they are still decent.
"Fortunately, she doesn't look like a vixen..."
Shang's mother secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but still stuffed the phone into Shang Yonglin's hand, and then said unhappily: "Look at yourself!"
Shang Yonglin was curious about what his mother saw. When he took the phone, he was also shocked.
He should have thought of it earlier. Since he got the news that his aunt had made an appointment to talk to Lu Jinyu, naturally others would also be able to tell Shang's mother about their meal.
But this photo...
In fact, it is rare for Lu Jinyu to smile like this. If I remember correctly, this photo should be the moment when Lu Jinyu suddenly laughed when he heard him say that this was his family's store.
As for himself, he never knew what expression he usually had, but the expression in the photo was completely different from what he saw when he looked in the mirror.
Unconsciously, Shang Yonglin fell into deep thought.
