Chapter 1511: Lu Yuan, Lu Jin
After being cussed out in front of so many people in the first-cla.s.s cabin, the greasy-faced man couldn’t hold on any longer.
To be able to sit in the first-cla.s.s cabin, most of them were people of status. How could he stand such humiliation?
The greasy-faced man’s face darkened, and he shook his ticket. “Watch your mouth! I also have a first-cla.s.s ticket! Even if I sat in the wrong seat, do you have to curse? Do you have any manners?!”
The tall and thin man glanced at the ticket that the man showed and frowned. “Zou Yaozu? Your seat should be 05B, which is the last seat of the first-cla.s.s cabin near the toilet. How can you have the face to sit in a good seat like 02B?”
Even in the first-cla.s.s cabin, there was a hierarchy in terms of seats.
Zou Yaozu sneered and stood up. He raised his head and said, “Can’t I be wrong? You keep calling me son of a b * tch. You really have no manners!”
“No matter how much I have no morals, I’m still better than the illegitimate child of a 70-year-old man.”This tall and thin man who didn’t look extraordinary seemed to know Zou Yaozu well. “Your father, Zou Nanfeng, is a well-known wealthy businessman in H City. He is 93 years old this year. When he was 70 years old, his sperm was obtained by a peripheral chicken and he was artificially inseminated to give birth to you. If your mother didn’t go out of her way to find the media to speak up, and if you didn’t go to your father’s house every day to cheat him, your father wouldn’t even know that he had such a son of a b * ich like you.”
Zou Yaozu’s mind buzzed and he blurted out, “You, you, you, you, you… How did you know?!”
He had just taken a plane and sat in the wrong seat. How did he get exposed?!
The people in the first-cla.s.s cabin looked at Zou Yaozu with different expressions. Many people curled their lips in disdain.
Zou Yaozu wished that he could take a condom and put it on himself.
“You, you, you, you… You’re good! I won’t lower myself to your level!” Zou Yaozu was so embarra.s.sed that he flew into a rage. He swung his arm and pushed the tall and thin man away. He walked back to the back of the first-cla.s.s cabin and sat down near the toilet. He shrunk his neck and hid himself.
Everyone watched the show for a while before they averted their eyes.
Lu Yuan and Zhao Liangze sat together. When they saw this scene, they couldn’ot help but laugh and shake their heads.
Zhao Liangze chuckled and said, “CEO Lu, your brother is too amazing, isn’t he? Has he studied the background of all the people in first cla.s.s?”
Lu Yuan smiled and turned his head away, saying, “He is a cautious person. Of course, he has to know himself and his enemy before he can take the plane without worry.”
Zhao Liangze was confused and said sheepishly, “The security at the airport is strict enough. Is Mr. Lu still worried?”
Lu Yuan smiled but didn’t say anything. He picked up the commercial magazine on the plane and began to casually flip through it.
The tall and thin man, who didn’t look handsome, sat down next to Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi had been annoyed and exasperated by the greasy-faced man. Now, not only had the man been chased away, but he had also been publicly humiliated. She felt very happy.
She leaned over and said to the man sitting next to her, “Sir, may I know your surname? Thank you so much for earlier.”
The tall, skinny man didn’t seem to expect Gu Nianzhi to take the initiative to talk to him. He was very nervous and straightened his back in his seat. He didn’t look at her and simply nodded. “No need for that. My surname is Lu. You’re welcome. It’s my pleasure.”
Gu Nianzhi: “…”
This man did not seem to like talking to her…
Gu Nianzhi didn’t force him. She moved slightly to the side to distance herself from the man so that he wouldn’t feel awkward.
After a while, the flight attendants and gentlemen on the plane came over and explained the basics of flying. They then said that they would take off soon and asked everyone to fasten their seat belts.
Gu Nianzhi fastened her seat belt with a click. From the corner of her eye, she saw that the man sitting next to her seemed to be peeping at her.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she turned her head to look. The man was sitting upright and had no intention of looking at her.
Was she being overly sensitive?
Gu Nianzhi shook her head and put on her headphones. She listened to her favorite audio book, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.
This was the third book in the Harry Potter series, and it was also her favorite.
Every time she heard Sirius Black) being imprisoned for more than ten years because he had been framed, she would cry uncontrollably.
She couldn’t even hear the sound of the plane taking off. She was only immersed in the ups and downs of the plot.
When she heard the part that she was most familiar with, she couldn’t help crying.
Just as she was listening nervously, someone suddenly poked her arm gently.
Gu Nianzhi reflexively turned her head to look. She saw the man sitting next to her pa.s.s her a bag of exquisite tissue paper and look at her with concern.
Gu Nianzhi snapped out of her daze and took off her headphones. She wiped her tears with the back of her hand and said, “I was listening to a book and was touched, so…”
The man nodded and stubbornly handed her the tissue paper. He said a little awkwardly, “This is made from bluegra.s.s juice mixed with 100% Hawaiian sandalwood pulp. It’s an edible standard. There’s no added pigment, and it doesn’t harm the skin at all. It can absorb water and oil up to 98%, which is the best proportion of known water and oil absorption properties. It cannot be 100% absorbed, and that wouldn’t be good for the skin either.”
Gu Nianzhi was embarra.s.sed.
It was just a packet of tissue paper. After she used it, she would have to throw it into the trash can. Did he have to explain its manufacturing parameters and performance parameters?
She was still in a daze when the man had already stuffed the tissue paper into her hand. His eyes were sparkling as he looked at her, as if he was saying, “Come praise me, praise me, praise me for being awesome!”!
Gu Nianzhi held the tissue in her hand. Her bright, big eyes curled, and her lips curved into a happy smile. She politely replied, “Thank you, this tissue is amazing. May I know what brand it is? I’ll buy it from now on.”
The man’s eyes lit up even more. “You really like it? But you haven’t used it yet. How do you know it’s as good as I said it would be?”
Gu Nianzhi: “…”
If she hadn’t sensed that the man had no ill intentions, Gu Nianzhi would have slapped the packet of tissues back on his face.
How did this man speak?
Every word he said was offensive.
Gu Nianzhi looked at the man as she tore open the packet of tissues. She pulled out a piece and printed it on her face.
Huh?
It did feel nice..
She carefully touched the napkin with her hand and felt its unusual softness and tenacity. She simply wiped her entire face.
Seeing that it was covered in a layer of dirt, she couldn’t stop praising it. “This tissue is really good. It can even be used as a facial cleanser.”
The man finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked seriously, “Do you like to use it?”
“I do.” Gu Nianzhi looked through the packaging of the napkin, but she couldn’t see the brand or the date of manufacture.
The man knew what she was looking for when he saw her looking through it. He said, “I made this myself. It’s only for my family. It’s not sold outside.”
Since it’s not sold in the market, why was he showing off?
Was he really not playing with her?
Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips and put on a fake smile. “Oh, I see. That’s even more precious… You can’t buy it even if you have money…”
However, the man didn’t seem to hear the sarcasm in her words. Instead, he said happily, “It’s okay, I’ll give it to you. I don’t want your money.”
Gu Nianzhi: “…”
If he was trying to curry favor for no reason, he was either a traitor or a thief.
She was a little scared, so she quietly moved aside and put on her earphones. She said politely, “How can I do that? I’m not really used to using this kind of tissue. Okay, I’m going to continue listening to my book. Thank you for your kindness, I appreciate it.”
She crossed her arms and closed her eyes, putting on a look of “don’t bother me”.
The man looked at her in shock. After a while, he resentfully moved his gaze away and stared blankly at the back of the seat in front of him.
He didn’t say anything else. He didn’t say a word until he got off the plane.
Lu Yuan sat on the other side of the aisle. He wanted to talk to him several times, but the man’s lips were tightly pursed and he didn’t speak at all.
It wasn’t until the plane landed in H city that the man suddenly stood up and was the first to rush to the cabin door.
Gu Nianzhi had just taken off her headphones when she looked up and saw him. She frowned slightly and didn’t say anything.
Lu Yuan sighed and stood up to say to her, “Lawyer Gu, please don’t take offense. That’s my brother, Lu Jin. He… He doesn’t know how to talk, but he has a good heart. If he has offended you in any way, I apologize on his behalf.”
Gu Nianzhi was relieved to hear that he was Lu Yuan’s younger brother. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, “President Lu, why didn’t you say so earlier? I was a little embarra.s.sed just now.”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. That’s how he is.” Lu Yuan smiled as he helped her carry her luggage. “Let’s go down together.”
Gu Nianzhi nodded. “I’ll go apologize to him first. I was too rude just now.”
Lu Yuan watched with a smile as she squeezed her way to the cabin door in front of him.
Gu Nianzhi saw Lu Yuan’s brother, Lu Jin, standing in front of the cabin door like a thin bamboo pole. He had a “do not approach me” look on his face, as if he would jump up and hit anyone who came near him.
She coughed lightly behind him and said, “Mr. Lu Jin?”
Lu Jin, who was standing in front of her, was shaken. He suddenly turned around and saw Gu Nianzhi looking at him with a smile. She even waved her hand and said, “Mr. Lu Jin?”
Lu Yuan, Lu Jin, these parents of the Lu family are really willful when it comes to naming…
Gu Nianzhi ridiculed in her heart as she smiled sweetly. She said to the shocked Lu Jin, “Mr. Lu Jin, I was too rude just now and made you angry. It was my fault. Please be magnanimous and forgive me this once. When we get off the plane, I’ll treat you to a meal as an apology, okay?”
Lu Jin looked very nervous, but he didn’t want to keep a straight face.
He knew that if he kept a straight face, this little girl would be afraid.
So he tried hard to squeeze out a smile.
With a smile that was uglier than crying, he said, “Okay, where are we going to eat after we get off the plane?”
Gu Nianzhi had already mentally prepared herself. Although she was very surprised, she didn’t show it on her face at all. Her smile was still soft and gentle, “I’ll go wherever you say. This is my first time in H City, so I’m not familiar with it. However, I heard that you’re CEO Lu’s brother. This time, you must be here for the Lu Corporation’s celebratory banquet, right?”
Lu Jin nodded. Seeing that Gu Nianzhi seemed to be very interested in the Lu Corporation, he quickly said, “I’m also a shareholder of the Lu Corporation.”
Gu Nianzhi wasn’t surprised. The name of the Lu Corporation indicated that it was a family business. This man was Lu Yuan’s younger brother, so the Lu Corporation must have his shares.
“Oh my, then you’re my big boss. Please take care of me in the future!” Gu Nianzhi bowed to Lu Jin.
Lu Jin quickly reached out to help her up, but when he was about to touch her shoulder, he quickly pulled back and rubbed his hands on his back. His expression relaxed. “I’ll definitely take care of you. There’s no need to bow.” He was worried that he had said the wrong thing. He looked at Gu Nianzhi eagerly and asked, “… You won’t continue to be angry, will you?”
Gu Nianzhi’s mouth twitched and she quickly shook her head. “I won’t, I won’t…”
“Then… do you still use the napkins I made?” He was very persistent in promoting his napkins.
Gu Nianzhi couldn’t help laughing. She realized that although this man was old, he was still very simple-minded. He spoke his mind in a blunt manner.
Therefore, she was very honest with him and didn’t beat around the bush. “Of course I want to use such a good thing, but I won’t take no for an answer. You said you would give me such a good thing for free, so I don’t dare to use it.”
Lu Jin finally understood what she meant, and a big smile appeared on his face. “I see. Then I’ll go back and set a price based on cost and profit, and then you’ll use it, right?”
Gu Nianzhi nodded heavily. “I hope it’s not too expensive, or else I won’t be able to afford it.”
“It’s not expensive, as long as you’re willing to use it.” Lu Jin was finally happy. The corners of his mouth were raised high, and he couldn’t lower it anymore.
..
After they left the airport, a bus took them to the Four Seasons Hotel in H City.
The Four Seasons Hotel was one of the hotels in the international financial center of H City, and also the most mysterious hotel in H city.
The building was 45 stories high and had a total of 399 rooms. Most of the rooms had a 180-degree view of the sea.
This time, Gu Nianzhi, Jin Dazhuang, and Xiao Zhang were together.
After entering the Four Seasons Hotel and getting her room card, Gu Nianzhi followed the large group upstairs to look for a room.
Her room was on the 36th floor, the same floor as Jin Dazhuang and Xiao Zhang.
Xiao Zhang and Zhang Yilai excitedly changed into their swimsuits and went to the hotel’s outdoor swimming pool to swim.
Jin Dazhuang was getting old and needed to rest in his room.
Their celebratory banquet was tomorrow night, and most of them would be flying back to C city the day after tomorrow morning.
Gu Nianzhi also wanted to seize the time to take a good look around H City.
When she came, she did some research and found out that the food here was very famous. She wanted to have a taste.
Gu Nianzhi put down her luggage and went to the bathroom to take a shower. She changed into a sapphire-blue silk dress with slightly puffy lantern sleeves. Her collar revealed her exquisite collarbone, and she also wore a string of millet beads. The palm-sized silk belt was tied around her slender waist, and the bud-shaped skirt was perfectly tucked in.
Her skin was already very white, and it was even more dazzling when set off by the sapphire-blue silk.
She pushed open the door and walked out, just in time to see Lu Yuan’s brother, Lu Jin, pacing back and forth at the door.
Gu Nianzhi walked over with a smile and said, “Mr. Lu Jin, do you live here?”
His eyes filled with surprise, Lu Jin turned around to see her.
He nodded, then shook his head and said, “I’m here to have dinner with you.”
Gu Nianzhi: “…”
“You said on the plane that you wanted to treat me to dinner to make amends.” He looked at Gu Nianzhi nervously, as if he was afraid that she would go back on her word.
Gu Nianzhi was also going out to look for food, so she simply invited him to join her. “Sure, I heard that the restaurant on the fourth floor, Long Jingxuan, isn’t bad. Do you want to try the food?”
Lu Jin nodded repeatedly. “Okay, let’s go to Long Jingxuan first, then I’ll treat you to French food at Caprice on the sixth floor.”
Gu Nianzhi: “…”
It was only one meal, and they were already talking about the next one?
Gu Nianzhi rolled her eyes and said with a smile, “But I have to lose weight tonight. One meal is enough. I don’t want to eat French food anymore.”
“Oh, that’s good.” Lu Jin quickly glanced at Gu Nianzhi and thought, how did she need to lose weight? Why did she have to lose weight?
However, he had seen a lot of women cry about losing weight, so he rationally didn’t ask. He happily walked beside Gu Nianzhi and took the elevator with her to Long Jingxuan restaurant, on the fourth floor.
Gu Nianzhi didn’t expect to see Bai Shuang when the elevator door opened!
Bai Shuang looked like she had just gotten off the plane, but she had already dressed up. She was standing at the entrance of Long Jingxuan’s restaurant and talking to a white man.
The white man was thin and wore gold-rimmed gla.s.ses. He looked very refined and sophisticated.
Gu Nianzhi smiled and quietly stood not far behind them.
However, Bai Shuang caught sight of Gu Nianzhi out of the corner of her eye. She quickly turned around and said, “Miss Gu? You’re staying here too? Are you here for dinner?”
Gu Nianzhi nodded and said, “We’re staying with the Lu Corporation. The Lu Corporation is having a celebratory dinner tomorrow.”
“Huh? You’re an employee of the Lu Corporation? That’s a good job!” Bai Shuang said enviously. “Unfortunately, I don’t know anything about computers. What does Miss Gu do?”
Gu Nianzhi said, “I’m not an employee of the Lu Corporation. I’m an employee of their law firm. I’m a lawyer.”
“A lawyer?!” Bai Shuang’s eyes lit up and she quickly said, “Miss Gu, You’re a lawyer? The lawyers working with the Lu Corporation must be very good. Coincidentally, this client of mine wants to find a lawyer. Do you want to give it a try?”
Gu Nianzhi glanced at the man. “He is your company’s client?”
