Lu Wanggui saw her eyes glistening like a newborn deer curiously looking around, so he casually asked, “Have you been happy recently?”
Xiang Xiaoyuan subconsciously looked at him, pursed her lips and smiled, “Pretty good.”
Lu Wanggui was not a person who could chat with others. He must have discovered something for him to ask this question. She thought of how she might have broken the original owner’s character and quickly added, “Perhaps it’s because I’ve moved and have a job that I like. I’m much more cheerful now.”
Lu Wanggui lowered his eyes. “The way you are now, it’s very good.”
Xiang Xiaoyuan immediately heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that. She looked at Lu Wanggui’s expression and tried to sound him out in a coquettish manner. “Hearing you say that, it sounds like I wasn’t very good in the past.”
Lu Wanggui’s expression was indifferent. “No, as long as you’re happy.”
Xiang Xiaoyuan was conflicted again. So, did Lu Wanggui suspect her? Sometimes, she felt that she was overthinking things. Who would believe that she could be reincarnated?
Especially for a workaholic like Lu Wanggui, who had nothing but work in his mind, he had probably never heard of reincarnation. He didn’t even have the time to care about his own son, much less care about her.
“I’m very happy right now.”
Xiang Xiaoyuan said with a smile. She would be even happier when she earned more money and obtained financial freedom in the future.
Manager Zhou was very efficient. He returned after a short while. “The waiter said that the guests in the innermost room on the second floor fit your description. There are three young people.”
Thinking of the waiter saying that the three young people looked like minors and that one of them looked quite similar to Lu Wanggui, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. The bar prohibited minors from entering. Lu Wanggui had come personally today… he was probably here to catch his son!
“CEO Lu, the security guard at the door is new. He’s too rigid in his work. He only knows to check whether a customer is a member or not. He forgot to check the age of the customer. I guarantee that this will never happen again.”
“It’s human nature. Humans are not machines. It’s normal to slip up at work. Please take us there, Manager Zhou.”
Manager Zhou had survived a disaster. He didn’t expect this big shot to be so easy to talk to!
Lu Wanggui and Xiang Xiaoyuan went up the elevator to the second floor under Manager Zhou’s lead. He had wanted to knock on the door and enter, but he suddenly thought of how some rich people’s children fool around in a private room. In order to avoid seeing anything that shouldn’t be seen, he stopped in his tracks decisively. “CEO Lu, there’s still something I need to take care of at the bar. So…”
“Okay, do your thing. Sorry to trouble you.”
“No trouble, no trouble.”
Manager Zhou quickly left.
Xiang Xiaoyuan also wanted to leave, but she didn’t have an excuse to do so. After all, in Lu Wanggui’s heart, she was the one who wanted to go out and look for the child on a rainy day. While she was sighing helplessly, Lu Wanggui raised his hand and knocked on the door three times at a leisurely pace.
Xiang Xiaoyuan: “…”
She thought that he would kick the door open.
She stood at the door and waited for a long time before the door of the private room was slowly opened. The smell of alcohol permeated the air.
The person who opened the door was An Yu. Among the three of them, she was the only one who drank less. When she heard the knock on the door, she thought that it was the waiter who came to deliver the wine. She did not expect to see Uncle Lu at the door!
An Yu was so scared that she instantly sobered up.
In fact, in the beginning, Wei Zihang was the one who accompanied Lu Bei to drink. The two of them drank some fruit wine with very low alcohol content. Later, as they drank, their emotions got the better of them and they ordered two bottles of whiskey.
An Yu saw that Lu Bei’s eyes looked lost as he downed one glass after another. She felt uncomfortable and drank two glasses with him. She did not expect that she would drink so much.
“Uncle… Uncle Lu!”
An Yu’s small face was red. She was at a loss as she pinched the corner of her clothes.
Wei Zihang drank a little, but he could not stand up. Lu Bei’s situation was the worst. He was already in a bad mood, and An Yu’s words made it worse. He drank quickly and urgently, it seemed like this would make all his worries disappear.
He was currently bending over and holding a trash can to vomit.
The smell of alcohol mixed with vomit came towards her, and she subconsciously took a step back. What were these children doing? Getting drunk in a bar?
She glanced at Lu Wanggui’s expression, and he was as calm as ever. Xiang Xiaoyuan even wanted to give him a thumbs up. As expected of a big shot, he was really calm. If the child she gave birth to were to cause such a ruckus in a bar, her blood pressure would surely soar. She would let the child have a taste of “bamboo shoots stir-fried with meat”.
Xiang Xiaoyuan did not know what Lu Wanggui was planning, so she could not say anything. She only stood at the side and waited for Lu Wanggui’s instructions.
Lu Wanggui stood at the door and looked calmly at Lu Bei who was bending over in discomfort. Suddenly, he turned his head and asked, “Do you know how to drive?”
Xiang Xiaoyuan:”? ? ?”
Should he ask this at a time like this?
