"Who was that person just now?"
In the corridor of the courtyard, the man was wearing a Chinese tunic suit. He looked at the two people who disappeared from the door around the strange corner with some confusion.
The waiter followed his gaze and said apologetically: "Sorry sir, I don't know."
"Go and ask."
The man ordered coldly.
The waiter looked embarrassed: "Sorry, sir, we absolutely respect the privacy of our guests. What you are doing is against our rules."
The man looked stern: "Rules?"
"What rules can apply to me? Call your boss here."
"this........."
"What?" The man lost his temper.
With a quick glance, the waiter instantly withered.
"I'll do it."
The waiter didn't dare to delay. The boss called him over early this morning and asked him to receive a big shot. This big shot came from a top and wealthy family in the capital. If the reception was not good, something might happen.
The boss kept trying to impress him, saying that he was mature, stable and an old employee, so he gave him this honor. But now, where is the honor?
This is simply a fatal matter.
The man in front of me is not easy to take care of. He is full of anger at first glance. He has a straightforward temper and never thinks too much.
It doesn’t matter whether the people at the bottom are in difficulty.
After the waiter sent the person into the box, he turned around and went to the boss's office to tell the person about the matter.
The boss's face turned cold. Everyone who has been here knows the rules here. They have to receive so many people every day that they can't say it openly. If they say it, they broke the rules. This person is really new here. I don't care at all,
Even though I was angry, most of my temper subsided when I thought that the other party was from the capital.
"Who is in the box?"
"It's Mr. Lu."
"Which Mr. Lu?"
"Mr. Lu of Shengmao International and Miss Huajia."
"There are also young masters from the Shen family and the Ming family."
The boss' face turned dark. There were people on both sides who could not afford to offend him. If he offended Lu Jing'an, he would not be able to survive in Beijing and Hong Kong. If he offended the man from the capital, he might not be able to open the store.
It’s not easy to handle.
"You drag the person with you first, and I'll go to Mr. Lu's place to have a look."
The boss said, put the beads in his hand on the desk, and walked towards Lu Jing'an's box.
In the box, Huanong was struggling with the bread crab in his hand. When he heard someone at the door saying that the boss was coming, he blinked and looked at the door curiously.
"Mr. Lu, there are guests in the box on the other side asking us about you. We don't know what to do."
When Xu Qing heard this, she almost stopped laughing: "The rules here are not to reveal the privacy of guests, but to allow the boss to come and tell us in person. Can I understand that you can't afford to offend the other party, and you don't want to be with others?" Familiar? That’s why you came to us to tell us this matter, and you want us to compromise?”
The boss was embarrassed by Xu Qing's merciless criticism. After struggling for a while, he finally had no choice but to endure the old face and nodded: "Mr. Xu still sees things thoroughly."
"Then what does the boss want us to do?"
The boss did not answer the question directly, but handed the tablet in his hand to Lu Jing'an. On it was the information of a man in his early thirties. When Lu Jing'an saw it, his eyes tightened.
Huanong caught his emotion, put down the bread crab in his hand, took out a tissue and wiped his hands.
"Who else is in his box?"
"There is also a respected old man in the city who Mr. Lu also knows. He is the chief designer of Beijing-Hong Kong Building."
He is truly a highly respected figure.
Lu Jing'an was silent, not prepared to give the boss this favor: "The choice is in the boss's hands."
"But........."
Lu Jing'an handed the picked crab meat to Huanong and said in a lazy tone, "But what? It's just a few meals. You don't think the relationship between us has reached this level of familiarity, do you?"
The boss's back felt numb. He knew what Lu Jingan had done and didn't dare to speak.
This meal was not pleasant.
Before leaving, the boss wanted to waive the bill, but Mr. Ming prevaricated him with just a few words.
The group left the courtyard.
"Get in the car first, I'll have a few words with Xu Qing."
Huanong got into the car obediently. Lu Jingan and Xu Qing were standing under the camphor tree on the roadside talking about something. Through the car window, Huanong couldn't hear.
She just lowered her head and was about to take out her phone to see some dirty information about herself.
Suddenly, there was a muffled sound, which scared her so much that the phone in her hand fell to the ground.
The street that was bright just a moment ago suddenly went dark, and the surroundings were so silent that even the honking of cars could not be heard.
This kind of high-end and hidden courtyard is usually located in a relatively quiet place, away from residential and commercial areas, and is surrounded by the same type of courtyards.
When the muffled sound rang out, no one was disturbed except a few people standing under the tree.
Huanong realized something was wrong and wanted to push the door open and get out to see what was going on. As soon as the door opened a crack, a big hand pushed the door back: "Squat down and don't come out."
"Are you okay?" Huanong could vaguely smell the smell of blood.
Lu Jing'an's car is bulletproof, so bullets can't get in, but the same cannot be said for the people leaning behind the car.
"Climb into the driver's seat and turn on the lights."
After hearing Lu Jing'an's words, Huanong didn't dare to hesitate and took off her high heels. Just as he was about to crawl over, his freedom was restricted by the hip-covering skirt.
"If I had known, I wouldn't have dressed so ladylike," Huanong muttered while picking up her skirt.
Climb into the driver's seat, turn on the ignition, and turn on the lights.
As soon as the high-beam headlights were turned on, the dark street suddenly became bright. The man wearing a mask and hat opposite was stabbed.
He raised his hand to block the light. After four or five seconds, when he got used to it, he raised his hand and hit the windshield.
The moment Huanong saw the person raising his hand, he was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his back.
Her father's problem didn't kill her, but was she going to die at the hands of Lu Jing'an?
Marry? The kind that kills you.
There was a bang————The bullet was inserted into the windshield. Huanong watched the man approaching step by step. Without doing anything, he stepped on the accelerator and hit the man directly.
Lu Jing'an held Xu Qing's injured arm and hid behind another car.
"Hide well."
"Cover the wound yourself."
"Shen Shang," the man shouted, and the man hiding by the tree on the opposite street corner understood and threw the car keys over.
Lu Jing'an took the car key and stepped on the accelerator. He went in the direction of Huanong and knocked the man with the gun to the ground. When he reversed the car and tried to run him over, the man dodged him.
But in front of him, Huanong turned the steering wheel and turned the car back, then hit it...
