52 -52 Being Followed
Lu Youting sneered with a twisted lip, “He’s a grown man, does he need you to accompany him to buy clothes?
Afraid he’ll get lost?”
“…?” Jian Si really wanted to retort with ‘What’s it to you?’ but, for fear of Lu Yanbai overthinking it beside her, she forcibly swallowed her words.
Seeing that she didn’t answer, Lu Youting’s face grew even darker.
Lu Ya and Shen Qing felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles and couldn’t stay any longer.
Gathering courage, Lu Ya spoke up, “Boss, the issue with the new product launch hasn’t been fully resolved.
How about we go back and deal with it?”
Lu Youting paid no heed, his hawk-like eyes piercingly staring at Jian Si as if trying to bore holes through her.
With the boss remaining silent, Lu Ya and Shen Qing didn’t dare to leave and had no choice but to obediently sit there.
The atmosphere was so oppressive it made it hard to breathe.
Jian Si, as if oblivious to Lu Youting’s gaze, focused all her attention on Lu Yanbai.
“Xiao Bai, you’re not in good health, you can’t eat spicy food, you must eat a light diet!
Have some of these crab balls, I’ve tasted them, and they’re quite good!
There’s also crab roe steamed egg!”
The more she ignored Lu Youting, the uglier his face became.
Suddenly, he spoke up, “Lu Group’s new product launch was sabotaged, and the rival company Nantian Group took the opportunity to hold their own launch. freewēbnoveℓ.com
As a result, last night someone sent materials showing their products failed inspection to the relevant departments.
The inspection led to a stock price drop, causing Lu Group’s stock to begin to rebound.”
Jian Si casually replied, “Oh!
That’s great, congratulations!”
“The one who sent the materials to the relevant departments was C.”
While saying this, Lu Youting’s sharp eyes did not blink as they were fixed on Jian Si.
As expected.
At the mention of the name C, Jian Si’s action of picking food for Lu Yanbai paused, and then she resumed as if nothing happened, “That’s your company’s business, it has nothing to do with me.
There’s no need to report to me.”
Every minute change in her was noticed by Lu Youting.
He grew more convinced that Jian Si knew C and was very familiar with him.
“You know C, don’t you?”
His tone was incredibly certain.
Hearing that she knew C, Shen Qing became excited.
“Lady, do you really know C?
Can you introduce me?
I, Shen Qing, have never admired anyone in my life, C is the first.
I really want to meet him and ask for some advice.”
Jian Si lowered her eyelids, hiding the nervousness in her eyes, and chuckled awkwardly, “I don’t know C, and I don’t even know what he does!”
Shen Qing’s shoulders drooped in disappointment.
“I thought I might finally get to see the true face of C!
Ah…”
Jian Si’s expression nearly cracked.
She couldn’t imagine if Shen Qing found out that C was a child not even five years old, whether he would collapse.
Lunch finally ended in the suffocating atmosphere.
Lu Youting suddenly said, “The seasons are changing, and I have no clothes.
Accompany me to buy some!”
“…??” Jian Si pointed to her nose, “Me?”
Lu Youting raised his eyebrows, “Who else?”
Without a second thought, Jian Si refused outright, “No way!
Have Lu Ya accompany you.
I’m going back to the hospital with Xiao Bai.”
Being named, Lu Ya shuddered with horror, the thought of accompanying the boss shopping making his scalp tingle.
Lu Youting looked at Lu Yanbai.
Lu Yanbai picked up on the signal and immediately pulled Jian Si, “Mommy, I don’t have any clothes either, I need to buy some!
Accompany me and Daddy to buy some!
Mommy has a good eye, the clothes you choose will definitely look nice.”
Jian Si looked at them suspiciously, “Aren’t all your clothes tailored?”
Lu Yanbai’s face stiffened for a moment before he resumed smoothly, “I’ve worn tailored clothes for so long; I want to change things up!
Mommy, are you going to accompany me or not?”
Jian Si asked with a masked smile, “Your heart doesn’t hurt anymore?”
Lu Yanbai pretended not to catch the sarcasm in her words, shaking his little head, “It doesn’t hurt!
With Daddy and Mommy by my side, it won’t hurt!”
Ah!
Jian Si’s face was full of helplessness.
Although she was well aware of their hidden motives, she could only agree reluctantly.
Once they left the Tanggong Night Banquet, Lu Ya and Shen Qing took a deep breath as if they had just walked through the gates of hell.
For the first time, they realized how sweet the air could taste.
Lu Youting instructed, “I’ll leave the chip matter to you two.
Call me if there’s any problem.”
Lu Ya, anxious not to return to the company with him, said eagerly, “Sure, you go and enjoy shopping, Shen Qing and I will handle everything.”
“Mm!” Lu Youting nodded in satisfaction, then left with Jian Si and Lu Yanbai.
Having finally sent King Yanluo away, Lu Ya and Shen Qing felt revitalized.
Fearful of their return, they hurriedly made their escape.
…
Lu Youting drove Jian Si and Lu Yanbai to the largest mall in Jiangcheng.
The first floor was full of snacks, and as they walked along, Lu Yanbai was as excited as if he had discovered a new world, curious about everything, this and that.
“Mommy, what’s this?
It looks so delicious!”
Jian Si knew he had been homebound from birth and that with Lu Youting’s personality, he wouldn’t be brought to places like this.
She said with a pang of pity, “This is takoyaki.
Want to try?
I’ll buy some for you.”
“Yes, please!”
Jian Si immediately bought him a serving.
The two of them shared it, one bite each, eating joyfully.
“Mommy, what’s that over there?
It smells so good!”
“That’s stinky tofu; you can’t eat that!
Once your surgery is done, Mommy will bring you here to try.”
Lu Yanbai was very obedient.
Jian Si said he couldn’t eat it, so he didn’t ask for it and quietly moved to the next stall.
“What about this?
It’s so shiny and translucent, is it jelly?”
“No, that’s bowl pudding.
Want some?
I’ll buy it for you!”
“Yes, please!”
Mother and son ate their way along, forgotten by Lu Youting, who followed behind like a jilted woman.
Finally, Lu Yanbai remembered Lu Youting and offered him a bowl pudding, “Daddy, do you want some?
This bowl pudding is delicious.”
Lu Youting was happy inside and reached out to take it, but Jian Si pulled his hand back, “Your daddy doesn’t eat this kind of stuff; you eat it yourself.”
Lu Youting: “…?”
Lu Yanbai didn’t doubt her words, retracted his hand, and took another bite, showing regret.
“Daddy, this bowl pudding is really good; it’s a pity you can’t eat it.”
Lu Youting glared at Jian Si through gritted teeth, his eyes murderous.
Jian Si took advantage of Lu Yanbai’s inattention to cheekily make a face at Lu Youting.
The anger in Lu Youting seemed to dissipate as he saw her childish side, his mouth involuntarily curled into a smile that reached his eyes.
Even after lunch, Lu Yanbai and Jian Si sampled every snack they could eat.
Once they had tried everything, their stomachs were near bursting.
After they were full, they took the elevator to the fourth floor for men’s clothing.
Unknown to them, a figure had been stealthily following and took photos, sending them to Ye Qingqing with a note, “Master, you better hurry, Jian Si is actually shopping with Director Lu and the little young master.
Her scheming is too heavy, using the little young master to compete with you for Director Lu.”
Then, they sent Ye Qingqing their location.
Ye Qingqing’s response was swift, “Keep an eye on them, I’m on my way.”
