Chapter 194 You Go Downstairs Now
He Xina didn't care whether Lu Yanqi's attitude towards her was cold or not. From the first time she saw him, she was attracted by his extraordinary temperament and unique charm. Now she was trying to get close to him.
She had just been transferred back from an overseas branch and had checked Lu Yanqi's relevant information. She also knew that Lu Yanqi was currently single, but it was a rare opportunity like today, so she wanted to find out the truth.
She knew asking directly would seem abrupt, so she decided to test it in a more subtle way.
She adjusted her sitting position, smiled gently, and spoke in a relaxed and natural tone: "Mr. Lu, your daily work is so busy. I wonder how you can relax yourself physically and mentally after the intense work? For example, do you have a specific way of leisure, or do you have the habit of gathering with relatives and friends and spending a good time together?"
Lu Yanqi was startled for a moment, but quickly regained his composure, thinking to himself: It's interesting that this woman tried to pry into my private life. He remained calm and responded in a formal tone: "I often participate in various social activities and go out for walks."
A sly light flashed in He Xina's eyes, and she continued to ask: "So, in these activities, do you have a favorite partner to go with you? Or, is there someone who often accompanies you to share these happy moments?"
After hearing this, how could Lu Yanqi not understand this woman's intention.
Han Zhicong on the side couldn't help but break into a cold sweat. Everyone knew that Lu Yanqi was still single. Wasn't He Xina's words embarrassing?
He quickly turned to He Xina and reminded her, "Manager He, please be polite."
When He Xina was reminded by her boss, her face suddenly became a little embarrassed and she didn't know how to respond.
Just when the atmosphere was a little awkward, Lu Yanqi suddenly relaxed his brows and raised a faint smile on his face. He said to the two people in front of him: "Thank you for your concern. In fact, the pressure on my work is not too great. It is mainly because my fiancée has given me great support and companionship in my work, so the happy time is naturally shared with her."
"Do you have a fiancée?"
"Mr. Lu has a fiancée?"
He Xina and Han Zhicong exclaimed in surprise at the same time, their eyes full of shock.
Xu Yang was also surprised, and secretly sighed in his heart, "It turns out that Mr. Lu has proposed to me. This is really fast!" He quietly gave a thumbs up under the table to show his admiration.
Lu Yanqi saw everyone's reactions, but his heart was as sweet as honey. He smiled and nodded, "Yes, but now is not the time to make it public."
When He Xina heard this, she felt disappointed. She originally thought she still had a chance, but she didn't expect that this outstanding man already had a partner.
She tried to control her emotions, trying to stay calm, and forced a smile and said, "So that's how it is. Congratulations, Mr. Lu. May your love last forever and be happy and fulfilling."
Han Zhicong also quickly echoed: "Yes, I sincerely wish Mr. Lu well, and look forward to receiving your wedding invitation soon."
Lu Yanqi nodded, "Thank you, I will."
He Xina regretfully turned her eyes away from Lu Yanqi and smiled as she changed the subject: "By the way, we can discuss the project mentioned just now in more detail..."
Xu Yang observed from the side, and admired He Xina's emotional intelligence a little, and even more so the president's high profile.
……
The dinner ended at 8 o'clock, and Lu Yanqi asked Gu Nan to take him directly to Lin Qing's residence. The car did not go into the underground garage, and Lu Yanqi got off at the gate of the community.
The gate of the community is accessed, and Lu Yanqi didn't have the key. He could have followed others in, but he didn't.
He stood quietly on the wide playground at the entrance of the community, his eyes slowly scanning the surroundings.
After dinner, this place becomes a good place for residents to take a leisurely stroll. Some are happy families of three walking hand in hand; some are sweet couples holding hands and whispering; and there are also a group of happy children playing and fighting to their heart's content.
Seeing these heartwarming scenes, Lu Yanqi couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Thinking back to the question He Xina asked tonight, he suddenly realized that he had always been alone in the past twenty years.
Whether he was focusing on his studies or busy with work and social activities, he had little time to pay attention to his emotional life. No one shared his worries when he was troubled, and no one shared his happiness when he was happy, and the emptiness in his heart could never be filled.
Now, the person who made him worry and enriched his heart was only 100 meters away from him. At this moment, he also longed to enjoy this leisurely after-meal time with his beloved like everyone else.
He knew that Lin Qing had not rested yet, so without thinking too much, he dialed the number that made him happy at the first sight.
When Lu Yanqi called, Lin Qing was leaning on the sofa reading other people's inspirational articles, so when the phone rang, she saw the familiar name, her lips curled up, and she quickly picked up the phone.
"Hey?"
Hearing her soft and sweet voice, Lu Yanqi's heart melted instantly and he felt satisfied.
He suppressed the joy in his heart and asked, "What are you doing?"
After Lin Qing answered the phone, she lay flat on the sofa with a smile on her face, thinking that Lu Yanqi should still be socializing and just took the time to call her. "I just got out of the shower and was thinking about you. When will you finish?"
"Go downstairs now and go to the entrance of the community." Lu Yanqi's voice came from the phone.
"What did you say? Is there a express delivery for me?" Lin Qing immediately stood up and sat cross-legged on the sofa.
Lu Yanqi couldn't help laughing at Lin Qing's reaction. This girl's train of thought was really strange. The first thing she thought of was express delivery.
But since she asked, Lu Yanqi decided to follow her line of thought and answered: "Well, I ordered takeout for you as a midnight snack."
After hearing this, Lin Qing felt warm in her heart. She thought that it was normal for Lu Yanqi to order a portion for her when he was eating out.
"Okay, I'll go down now." Lin Qing said happily, then quickly got up, changed into a loose skirt, and went out happily.
Lin Qing walked quickly to the gate of the community and looked around, looking for the courier.
But there were many residents at that time, and the people coming and going made it difficult for her to tell who the courier was.
Just as she was about to call Lu Yanqi, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of her.
She was stunned at first, then a surprised smile appeared on her face. She gently patted Lu Yanqi's arm and said coquettishly, "Where's the courier? You lied to me!"
Lu Yanqi couldn't help laughing at her cute appearance. He reached out and gently stroked her hair, saying softly, "Didn't you say you were thinking about me? So I sent myself here by express delivery. Are you surprised?"
