God of Racing-Chapter 427 - 420
Early the next morning, Lu Jinxuan entered the office, and Yu Sangwan and Le Zhengsheng were already there. To be exact, they hadn't left all night.
Lu Jinxuan shot them a cold glance and pulled out a chair to sit down. ππ£π²ππ¨π²ππ»πΌπ―π²π.π°ππ¦
Yu Sangwan's heart ached, worried that she would be scolded by him next.
"Don't be scared." Le Zhengsheng squeezed her hand, "I'm here."
"Hmph." Lu Jinxuan curled his lips into a slight smile, looking over, "Miss Yu, can you deliver on your big words from yesterday this morning?"
"Iβ¦" Yu Sangwan felt guilty, tightly sealing her lips without speaking.
Le Zhengsheng stepped forward, "We didn't sleep all night, so this is all we could recover⦠we can let them start working first and catch up later."
"Oh, really?"
Lu Jinxuan reached out and picked up the documents in front of Yu Sangwan, examining them carefully.
Yu Sangwan watched him cautiously, her heart beating wildly.
With a 'slam', Lu Jinxuan threw a stack of papers onto the table, his tone disdainful, "What's this? Are you sure this is correct?"
"Iβ¦" Yu Sangwan was unsure, "Isn't it right? I tried hard to recall."
Lu Jinxuan was infuriated, closing his eyes briefly, "Yu Sangwan, this isn't child's play⦠it's not enough that you tried hard! Do you even understand what the anniversary celebration of Donghua means?"
"Iβ¦" Yu Sangwan felt extremely guilty. She already felt bad for making a mistake, and now being accused by her former lover?
She stood up suddenly, filled with grievance, "I'm not even a professional! I told you from the start I couldn't do it! It was youβ¦ you insistedβ¦ and now that I can't do it well, you blame me like this. You weren'tβ¦ weren'tβ¦"
β¦weren't like this!
Yu Sangwan wanted to say that but didn't in the end.
Their eyes met, both recalling the past sweetness, how much he once cherished her!
"Sighβ¦" Lu Jinxuan let out a barely audible sigh, his attitude softening.
However, Yu Sangwan spoke first, "I'm quitting! Just fire me!"
"What?" Lu Jinxuan raised his thick eyebrows, "Is this your attitude? I entrusted such an important matter to you, and just a little setback, you want to give up?"
"Then what? I can't do it well!" Yu Sangwan craned her neck, confronting him.
"Even if you can't do it well, you need to carry on!" Lu Jinxuan scolded harshly, "You're not a child anymore; work can't be treated as a game!"
He gave her a fierce glare and stormed off.
"β¦" Yu Sangwan was stunned. Was this still the Lu Jinxuan who once told her 'do as you please'?
If they couldn't be lovers, did they have to become enemies? Is it that all he sees now is Mu Qinglan? Of course, after all those years, how could she compete?
Lu Jinxuan turned back, shouting loudly, "Come out! If you made a mistake, you need to redeem it!"
Yu Sangwan clenched her teeth, her eyes reddened with grievance, and without saying a word, she followed him out.
The construction crew had arrived and were waiting for instructions.
The site manager saw them come out and hurried up to Lu Jinxuan, "Mr. Jiang, this group of workers just arrived and are awaiting arrangements. What do you think⦠how should they be arranged?"
"Hmm." Lu Jinxuan nodded slightly, "First, arrange accommodation for themβ¦"
He pulled a portable hard drive from his pocket and instructed, "Give this to their head, and I'll meet with him shortlyβ¦"
"Yes, Mr. Jiang."
Behind him, Yu Sangwan was already stunned, looking up at Le Zhengsheng in confusion, whispering, "What's he giving them?"
"β¦" Le Zhengsheng shrugged, "It should be what was messed up, he probably restored it."
"Restored it?" Yu Sangwan was surprised, "Really? How is that possible? He has never been involved."
Le Zhengsheng bent down, whispering in Yu Sangwan's ear, "Don't you know? Mr. Lu is famously smart⦠don't forget, he grew up running around this place, no one knows it better than him! He must have looked over your plan, right?"
"β¦Yeah." Yu Sangwan nodded dazedly.
Le Zhengsheng clicked his tongue, "There you go, for him, that's enough."
Yu Sangwan was shocked, involuntarily looking towards Lu Jinxuan, her gaze now mixed with admiration.
"Hey." Le Zhengsheng nudged Yu Sangwan's shoulder, "See that? Young Master Lu has dark circles, looks like he didn't sleep last night either⦠no matter how smart he is, he still needs time."
Yu Sangwan looked carefully at Lu Jinxuan. Indeed, his face showed signs of fatigue⦠did he not rest last night because of her?
Clearly, she was the one who messed up, but after being scolded a few times, she couldn't take it and shouted at him. She really⦠shouldn't have done that.
Lu Jinxuan suddenly turned around, looking at Yu Sangwan, "You guys⦠continue with the rest, I'm going to meet with the head."
"Oh." Yu Sangwan bit her lower lip in embarrassment and nodded.
Lu Jinxuan went out, and Yu Sangwan stood there, motionless for a long time.
"Hey!" Le Zhengsheng waved a hand in front of her, "What are you thinking?"
Yu Sangwan gritted her teeth, "I need to go and apologize to him!"
With that, she rushed out past Le Zhengsheng.
Le Zhengsheng's smile vanished abruptly, his expression turning gloomyβ¦
Outside the door, Yu Sangwan was running quickly, seeing Lu Jinxuan just ahead. "Ah..."
She opened her mouth, hesitating, right... she couldn't call him Jinxuan, he was now Jiang Shuo.
But whether he was Jiang Shuo or Lu Jinxuan, it seemed he had nothing to do with her anymore.
"Jinxuan." Mu Qinglan came over from the front, holding a cup, smiling as she looked up at Lu Jinxuan.
Lu Jinxuan frowned, "Qinglan?"
Mu Qinglan approached him, handing him a medicine bottle, "Did you forget to take your medicine when you left? Ji Qing reminded me, I was afraid you were too busy... so I brought it over to you."
Lu Jinxuan glanced at the medicine bottle, it was the medicine Ji Qing had prescribed for him.
"Alright." He nodded, reached out to take it, and tilted his head back to swallow it.
"Drink some water." Mu Qinglan timely brought the water cup to his mouth, considerate and thoughtful.
Seeing this scene, Yu Sangwan withdrew her steps. She was going to apologize for what? Maybe he didn't care at all? He came here to work, and Mu Qinglan just had to follow... she was the one in his heart!
"Tch." Yu Sangwan scoffed with a smile, turned around, and retraced her steps.
At Donghua's old site, there was an outdoor swimming pool at the back, which had been abandoned for a long time.
For this anniversary celebration, it's naturally going to be used.
Midday, the sun shining overhead, Le Zhengsheng was directing people cleaning the pool. To say he was directing people, he was actually just supervising from the shore, occasionally pointing fingers.
Yu Sangwan sat on a beach chair nearby, still busy with the work ahead.
However, she was sullen... Le Zhengsheng could see it.
The workers below shouted up to Le Zhengsheng, "Director, should we test the pipeline now? It hasn't been used for a long time, not sure if it's clear?"
"Okay! Let the water flow first for a test!" Le Zhengsheng responded casually, but walked over to Yu Sangwan.
He raised his hand, placing it on her head, "Little Wanwan, still unhappy?"
"Hmm?" Yu Sangwan pulled the corners of her mouth into a smile, "No, I'm busy!"
"Then, give me a smile?" Le Zhengsheng raised his eyebrow at her, demonstrating by grinning widely, "Like this..."
Seeing his smile nearly reach his ears, Yu Sangwan couldn't help but laugh, "Haha..."
Nearby, Lu Jinxuan and Mu Qinglan were walking over together, just in time to witness this scene.
Mu Qinglan couldn't help but glance up at Lu Jinxuan, "Jinxuan, Miss Yu... what's going on with her..."
She paused, carefully observing Lu Jinxuan's expression, "Aren't you together? Miss Yu and this Mr. Le Zheng look very close!"
That statement hit Lu Jinxuan's sore spot, he gritted his teeth and shook his head, "No, her personality is like that... close with everyone, not intimate!"
His tone, clearly protective of Yu Sangwan.
Mu Qinglan awkwardly tugged at the corners of her mouth, "Really? Then it must be."
Lu Jinxuan walked over there with a somber face, he was there to check the progress and give the workers some drinks.
"Director." Lu Jinxuan stood in front of Le Zhengsheng, seemingly not seeing Yu Sangwan, "Come over for a moment."
Le Zhengsheng and Yu Sangwan were both stunned, Le Zhengsheng retracted his hand, stood up straight, and walked toward Lu Jinxuan, "Okay... over there."
"Everyone, come over and have some drinks!"
Mu Qinglan was on the side calling for the workers, who all stopped their work to come over for drinks. Mu Qinglan glanced at Yu Sangwan who had her head down as though it all had nothing to do with her.
Mu Qinglan pursed her lips, picked up a drink bottle, and walked over to Yu Sangwan.
"Here, have some drinks and take a break... the weather is so hot."
Yu Sangwan looked up, meeting Mu Qinglan's smiling face, unable to refuse, she took it, "Thanks."
She really didn't want to talk to Mu Qinglan, although she thought it wasn't Mu Qinglan's fault for the matter with Lu Jinxuan, but a rival in love... always hard to like.
Mu Qinglan could see it, she smiled and looked at the pool being tested with water, "Miss Yu is very capable, so young and already in charge of such a significant CASE... As for me, I'll probably rely on Jinxuan for the rest of my life."
It sounded like envy, but the boasting seemed more apparent.
"However, a woman... still the most important is finding the right man, don't you think?"
.
Mu Qinglan spoke as she leaned closer to the pool.
Yu Sangwan awkwardly smiled, "Maybe!"
Suddenly, Mu Qinglan slipped as if about to fall.
"Miss Mu!" Yu Sangwan exclaimed in shock, hurriedly rushed over, trying to pull her up, in a panic, one hand grabbed her hand, the other... accidentally pulled off Mu Qinglan's wig!
Despite this, they both rolled down into the pool! The pool was still draining sludge, the bottom uneven, with half-filled water, and falling into it was no laughing matter.
But at the moment, Mu Qinglan was in a more embarrassing situation, she had just recovered not long ago, her hair hadn't grown well... the scars on her head were still clearly visible! Once the wig was off, her entire image was ruined...
"Ah..." Mu Qinglan quickly covered her head, utterly ashamed, "Why did you do that?"
"I..." Yu Sangwan was stunned, she looked wrongly at Mu Qinglan, what happened to her?
