24

Assistant Lin knows this, and Lu Chengze naturally knows it too.

The cigarette on his fingertips finally burned to the end, and just before it burned his skin, he reached out and pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray.

"Are you still unable to contact Jian Yao?"

Assistant Lin hesitated for a moment, "We have been contacted."

After hearing this, Lu Chengze finally turned around and looked over, "What do you mean we have been contacted?"

Assistant Lin carefully considered his words. , "You are not allowed to tell Miss Jian about Liu Yaozong for the time being, so Miss Jian said that if you have any matters, wait until she comes back from vacation."

Lu Chengze glanced at Special Assistant Lin coldly, "Send her a message and ask her to come. Come to the company."

Lin Tezhu opened his mouth, but was interrupted by Lu Chengze before he could say anything.

"Immediately, immediately!"

Assistant Lin said: "...but she has stopped responding to messages now. She called but didn't answer the phone."

Lu Chengze seemed to have punched cotton wool, unable to get angry, and stared. Assistant Lin took a look and took out his cell phone to dial Jian Yao's number.

There is still a blind tone of "beep beep", no one hangs up, and no one answers.

Lu Chengze's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

"What is she doing every day?"

He frowned and looked at Assistant Lin, "Is it always so difficult to call her?"

Although they grew up together, it was Jian Yao who always stuck to him and took the initiative to call him. Telephone.

He rarely takes the initiative to contact Jian Yao, and this is the first time he has been rejected by Jian Yao in a row.

Of course not.

After all, Ms. Jian is the director of the business department. She has many customer calls on her mobile phone. Under normal circumstances, her mobile phone is open 24 hours a day.

We used to have good contact with each other.

But at this moment, facing Lu Chengze's questioning, Assistant Lin lowered his head and did not dare to speak.

His patience exhausted, he picked up his suit jacket on the sofa and walked outside.

Lin Tesuke took two quick steps to catch up, "Mr. Lu, where are you going?"

There is still a lot of mess in the company, and it is still hidden from the company's shareholders and chairman. Now at this juncture, where is this ancestor going?

Lu Chengze said coldly, "Go and see what Jian Yao is doing."

As soon as he finished speaking, the phone in Lu Chengze's hand suddenly rang.

Assistant Lin's eyes lit up, "It should be Miss Jian's call."

Miss Jian might be angry with him, but she liked Mr. Lu so much that she would definitely call him immediately when she saw Mr. Lu's phone number.

I didn't call before, maybe I was still busy.

After all, today is the engagement day of Mr. Lu and Miss Jian. With so many relatives and friends, some of them may have to get together after the banquet.

Lu Chengze also paused in his steps and lowered his eyes to look at the mobile phone in his hand.

Assistant Lin, who had always been steady, took two quick steps to catch up with Lu Chengze, with expectation on his face, "Is it Miss Jian?"

The Lu family's troubles seemed quite big, but if Miss Jian was willing to come forward and make peace with Mr. Li, all the problems would be solved It's solved.

As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed that Lu Chengze's aura became increasingly cold and frightening, and the hand holding the phone was so strong that he almost crushed it.

Assistant Lin looked down and saw that the phone in Lu Chengze's hand was still vibrating, but the incoming call notification displayed on the screen was clearly Liu Yiyi's name.

The joy on Lin Teshu's face faded, his body froze, and he took half a step back calmly, trying to reduce his presence as much as possible.

From the corner of his eye, he saw Mr. Lu staring at the screen for a long time. He didn't click to answer until he was about to hang up automatically.

I don't know what was said over there, but his face was extremely cold.

"I understand, go over now."

Jian Yao originally just wanted to dry her hair, but unexpectedly she fell asleep on the recliner.

When I woke up, the sky was completely dark, and the entire balcony was only illuminated by the dim light cast by neon lights in the distance.

She bent down to pick up the squeezed book, picked up her phone and took a look at the time.

It was already past ten o'clock in the evening.

There were several missed calls on the phone, mostly from Assistant Lin, and the last one was from Lu Chengze.

The most recent one is from a few hours ago.

It was probably because of Li's affairs that Lu Chengze could take the initiative to call her. It seemed that the trouble he had caused was quite big.

Jian Yao teased her lips, turned off her phone and walked towards the kitchen.

She didn't have time to eat in the morning, and she had to toast her relatives and friends at noon. She only took a few token bites, and now her chest was pressed to her back with hunger.

Lu Chengze had a bad stomach and often skipped breakfast, so she often prepared lunch boxes for him and brought them there. There were a lot of ingredients in the refrigerator.

Unfortunately, I have been busy these days and have not cooked at home. Several vegetables in the refrigerator are no longer fresh.

I saw a pack of snail rice noodles that I bought on the shelf nearby, so I took it over and cooked it.

She watched the water boil, picked up her phone to set the timer, and suddenly a call popped up.

It belongs to Lu Chengze.

Jian Yao wanted to hang up directly, but thinking that she was still working at Lu's, she hesitated for two seconds and pressed connect.

There was silence in the receiver for a moment.

Jian Yao could hear the puffing of smoke on the other side of the phone through the screen.

"Jian Yao?"

When Lu Chengze opened his mouth, his voice was hoarse.

Jian Yao said coldly "Yeah".

Sensing her cold attitude, Lu Chengze paused for a moment.

Jian Yao was a little impatient, "Is something wrong? If nothing happens, I'll hang up first."

"Why don't you answer my call?"

Why hasn't there been any news in the past few days?

Why didn't the engagement ceremony wait for him even though he knew he was coming back?

Why didn't Jian Yao answer or call back when he had lowered his head to call?

The moment the call was connected, Lu Chengze had many questions to ask.

But when it came time to really say it, I just squeezed out this sentence.

Why?

Jian Yao lowered her eyes, "I was very busy, my phone was on mute, and I didn't see it."

This was the excuse Lu Chengze always used to deal with her.

Today, she finally returned everything to him.

Lu Chengze took another puff of cigarette and put it out casually, "I know you are still angry. This matter is my fault. I can apologize to you."

"But our personal feelings should not be brought to work. "You have always been in charge of Li's projects. The engagement party is over and the remaining holidays are cancelled. Come to my office tomorrow."

Jian Yao looked at the boiling water in the pot, picked up her chopsticks and stirred the vermicelli inside to prevent them from sticking.

"Not tomorrow, I have an appointment."

She has an appointment?

Date with whom?

What else can she do besides shopping with Xu Si?

Lu Chengze took a deep breath and said in a tone of impatient tone, "Jian Yao, I'm telling you something serious. You have to have a limit to your temper. Can you stop making unreasonable noises?"

Jian Yao almost laughed in anger.

Is she being unreasonable?

She was about to fight back when she heard a female voice over there call out softly, "Brother Lu..."

followed by Lu Chengze's undisguised impatience.

"Jian Yao, if I don't see you at the company at eight o'clock tomorrow morning, you will never come to the company again."
