My Multiple Identities Revealed After Marrying the Bigshot-Chapter 455: Continue Tonight
Chapter 455: Chapter 455: Continue Tonight
Although Zhou Shuyan said yesterday that she wouldn’t be able to get out of bed today, he hadn’t managed to keep her there.
But Lu Youxi knew herself that she would be lazy today; if it weren’t for work compelling her to leave the house, she really wouldn’t want to move.
She’s not usually like this.
She’s not a homebody and usually enjoys being active.
Otherwise, in her past life, she wouldn’t have relied on sports to relieve stress.
It’s rare that today she truly doesn’t want to move.
Lu Youxi was still hiding under the covers, but Zhou Shuyan didn’t care at all and got up unabashedly to change his clothes.
Just after picking out a belt and before fastening it, the belt loosely hanging from his trousers,
Zhou Shuyan suddenly paused and turned back, "Last night I said you wouldn’t be able to get out of bed today, but I didn’t make it happen."
Lu Youxi: "..."
She hadn’t expected this man to remember.
Lu Youxi understood Zhou Shuyan well; he never said things without reason. There must be more to it.
Sure enough, Zhou Shuyan continued, "We’ll try again tonight."
Lu Youxi: "..."
There was no need to be so persistent.
After they had both gotten ready, Zhou Shuyan took Lu Youxi to Dongshenglai.
He parked the car, and before Lu Youxi could get out, Zhou Shuyan said, "I’ll wait for you at Shi Yusheng’s office. Take your time with the meeting, no need to rush."
Zhou Shuyan and Lu Youxi entered Dongshenglai together.
Zhao Jingyu hadn’t expected them to come today. Seeing them enter, he quickly came to greet them.
"President Zhou, President Lu." Zhao Jingyu hurriedly called out, "Are you both heading to the usual hall?"
"I’m here for business today. I’ve booked Haisheng Hall," Lu Youxi explained to Zhao Jingyu.
"Is President Shi here today?" Zhou Shuyan suddenly remembered that today was Saturday, and Shi Yusheng might not necessarily be there.
"He is."
"Then I’ll go to his office and wait for a bit," Zhou Shuyan said indifferently.
It was unknown when Zhao Jingyu had informed Lin Chaoqi.
Lin Chaoqi came trotting over from a distance, "President Zhou, President Lu."
"President Lu, I’ll take you to the Haisheng Hall," Zhao Jingyu offered.
Lin Chaoqi very respectfully volunteered to take Zhou Shuyan to Shi Yusheng’s office.
But before Zhou Shuyan and Lu Youxi could part ways, Shi Yusheng was already running towards them from afar.
"Brother Yan!" Even before he got close, Shi Yusheng was already waving to Zhou Shuyan and Lu Youxi from a distance, "Sister-in-law!"
Then, he happily ran over.
Shi Yusheng waved off Lin Chaoqi and Zhao Jingyu, "I’ll take Brother Yan to my office, and you guys lead my sister-in-law to the private room."
They were currently in the hotel lobby, having already come some distance inside.
At the hotel entrance, President Zhao and Xiao Song’s group had just entered.
Manager Chen, Xiao Jiang, Xiao Huang, and Xiao Li, who had previously tasted Hexing Rice Grade A, were also amongst them.
They entered, and Xiao Song let out a "Huh," "President Zhao, look ahead, isn’t that Hexing Rice’s President Lu?"
"It does look a bit like her from behind. Who is that person beside her? Could they also be an employee of Hexing Rice?" President Zhao asked, puzzled.
"President Zhao, Assistant Song? Manager Chen." The village chief came into the hotel and saw President Zhao and his group standing still, looking inside.
"President Fang," President Zhao called out with a smile when he saw the village chief.
"What are you all looking at?" the village chief asked with curiosity.
"You’ve arrived just in time. Is that President Lu in front of us?" President Zhao asked, pulling the village chief closer.
"And who is that man next to President Lu?" President Zhao promptly followed up with another question.
The village chief inwardly commented on President Zhao’s penchant for gossip, quickly recognizing Zhou Shuyan’s figure from behind, but he couldn’t say it out loud.
Coincidentally, when the village chief looked over, Zhou Shuyan had already walked forward with Shi Yusheng, no longer beside Lu Youxi.
The village chief feigned ignorance, "Which man?"
He even looked around, signaling that despite trying, he didn’t notice anyone.
"That one..." President Zhao said, "Just the one who was walking ahead, huh, isn’t the one beside him the owner of Dongshenglai? Does President Lu have a good relationship with President Shi?"
"President Zhao, have you forgotten? Dongshenglai also uses our Hexing Rice!" the village chief said cheerfully.
President Zhao slapped his forehead, "I completely forgot about that. Then..."
President Zhao was still very curious about the man who was with Lu Youxi.
He didn’t seem like a staff member at all!
Judging by the way they interacted, it looked like their relationship was extraordinarily close.
Unable to contain his curiosity, President Zhao decided to have a little gossip.
"President Lu!" Who knew that before President Zhao could ask, the village chief called out loudly.
This left President Zhao unable to say anything else.
Lu Youxi turned around and approached with a smile, "President Zhao, Assistant Song, Manager Chen, Brother Jiang, Brother Huang, Sister Li."
Xiao Jiang, Xiao Huang, and Xiao Li hadn’t expected Lu Youxi to not only remember them but also accurately call them out, using ’brother’ and ’sister’ no less.
Despite Hexing Rice being a small company that had just started, Lu Youxi was the boss.
She usually sat on an equal footing with President Zhao.
Moreover, considering Hexing Rice’s current growth trajectory, it was only a matter of time before it became a big company.
With Lu Youxi’s shrewdness and business acumen, it was inevitable.
Yet, she still respectfully referred to them as brothers and sisters.
They were truly flattered.
They promptly called her "President Lu."
"President Lu, the person who was just with you is..." President Zhao asked.
Lu Youxi smiled openly and replied, "Oh, that’s my husband."
"I thought so; he didn’t look like an employee of your company," President Zhao said with a smile, though curious, he restrained himself and didn’t dare to pry into why Lu Youxi’s husband appeared to be so familiar with Dongshenglai’s President Shi.
"President Zhao, shall we go inside?" Lu Youxi also took the initiative to speak up, cutting off President Zhao’s curiosity at the perfect moment.
"Let’s go," President Zhao said, walking ahead with Lu Youxi, only then noticing that the one leading the way was Dongshenglai’s general manager and the lobby manager.
If it were just Zhao Jingyu leading the way, President Zhao wouldn’t have found it particularly surprising. freewebnøvel.coɱ
Although the waitstaff was plentiful, being led by Zhao Jingyu was indeed rare.
But with Lin Chaoqi also present, it overshadowed the surprise that might have come from Zhao Jingyu’s presence.
President Zhao quietly pulled Lu Youxi back half a step and asked in a low voice, "Why is Dongsheng’s President Lin personally leading the way for us?"
President Zhao liked doing business at Dongshenglai.
The hotel had a nice environment and good food.
Hence, he visited often, but not once had Lin Chaoqi personally led him.
There was no need for it.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Youxi decided to disclose a bit of the truth, "To be honest, my husband and President Shi were university classmates. Every time we come over, President Shi is quite courteous. I didn’t expect that President Shi was someone who valued old friendships so much."
President Zhao suddenly understood and couldn’t help but say, "The greater one’s humility and the less arrogant one is, the more successful they become in business."
Lu Youxi smiled and nodded in agreement.
