After knocking twice on the office door, Lu Chengyu opened the door and turned to let Third Uncle Yan in after hearing Yan Mu’s voice asking him to come in. When the two black-clothed bodyguards were about to follow him in, he turned his hand and stopped the two of them, smiling and saying, “Why don’t you two wait outside the door?”
The two bodyguards saw the action of Lu Chengyu’s hand flip just now and understood that this man had some skills, and it was not good to make trouble on someone else’s territory, they both looked towards Uncle Yan.
Third Uncle Yan’s face was not very good, but he still signaled the two bodyguards to stay outside with his eyes, took out the cigar and clamped it in his hand, and said with a smile: “My nephew has a good dog.”
“Dogs have a lot of fur, I don’t like it,” Yan Mu looked at Third Uncle Yan expressionlessly as he shook the cigar ashes on the floor, frowning slightly, “Uncle San, don’t think that others like to raise dogs just because you like to raise dogs.”
Third Uncle Yan was pushed back by Yan Mu’s words. After choking, he sat down on the sofa next to him, and then pointed at the person behind him and said, “This is my and your third aunt’s nephew Huang Chuan. He is your brother in a sense. You should get to know each other.”
Yan Mu raised his eyelids and glanced at the man behind Third Uncle Yan. He was slightly fat, slightly short, and a little ugly. He silently looked away, and after scanning Lu Chengyu for a few times, he said expressionlessly: “My brothers’ surname is Yan.”
Third Uncle Yan was a little embarrassed at the moment. He threw the cigar in his hand to the ground, crushed it with the sole of his shoe, and then said with a gloomy face: “What you said just looks down on your third aunt?”
“It’s you, Uncle San, who loves Aunt San. This relationship can’t be confused,” Yan Mu leaned back against the chair, “Uncle San, jokes like these are not very funny.”
“You!” Third Uncle Yan rushed forward in anger, as if he was going to fight Yan Mu. Seeing this, the two bodyguards standing at the door immediately followed him into the office. As a result, before they could react, they felt a pain in their lower abdomens one after another. Their heads swayed, and they found that they had been kicked against the wall of the office, and a bonsai in the corner was knocked over.
Such a big noise made the angry Third Uncle Yan stop his hands honestly. Several people in the room looked at the smiling young man standing at the door at the same time.
“Sorry, my leg cramped accidentally.” Lu Chengyu walked towards the bodyguard closest to him, bent down and stretched out his hand to the man, ready to help him up. This action scared the bodyguard so much that he shrank back, his whole body pressed against the corner of the wall, and he dared not stretch out his hand.
Seeing this, Lu Chengyu did not insist. He stood up and patted the non-existent dust off his trouser legs and said to Third Uncle Yan with a smile: “Sorry, I interrupted your conversation, please continue.”
Third Uncle Yan swallowed his saliva. How could he continue to get angry? He had been suffocated by the noise. Looking at his two cowardly bodyguards huddled in the corner and looking at Yan Mu who had not changed his expression from beginning to end, he had to suppress his anger and sit back on the sofa. “I came to you today just for my nephew.” He did not wait for Yan Mu to respond, and said directly, “I heard that you have a project in Jinhe County recently and are looking for a contractor. Why not let Huang Chuan do it? This kid is meticulous and will definitely do a good job.”
Huang Chuan smiled at Yan Mu ingratiatingly, and his facial features gathered together urgently, which was not at all good-looking. Lu Chengyu had been standing aside with a smile, and suddenly thought to himself that the artists who had been sexually exploited by Huang Chuan in their previous life must have a good psychological quality, otherwise how could they face such a person calmly.
Huading bought a piece of land in Jinhe County. Because the land was not large, it planned to build a small residential community on it. Even the construction drawings had been done, but the construction team had not been determined. Third Uncle Yan came here just to ask Huading to hand over the matter to Huang Chuan.
This kind of thing may seem unworthy of mentioning, but in fact there was a lot of money to be made. Just a little bit of material leakage could make a lot of money.
For Yan Mu, although Jinhe County was not a big project invested by Huading, it was impossible to hand over the construction of the community to someone he was not familiar with. So he just glanced at Huang Chuan, who was grinning so hard that his teeth were showing, and quickly looked away, “The construction team has already been contacted for the community in Jinhe County. Since Mr. Huang is the nephew of my third uncle, how can he do these insignificant little things?”
“Young people can do anything as long as they are willing to work hard,” Third Uncle Yan said with a smile, “Besides, Jinhe County is just a small investment. There is nothing for my dear nephew to worry about.”
“I wonder if Mr. Huang has a construction qualification certificate?” Lu Chengyu slowly said at this time, “The communities built by Huading have always been well-known in the industry. The reason is of course that Huading’s construction quality is good and the residents can trust it, so the choice of the contractor is very important. I wonder what buildings Mr. Huang has contracted and built before?”
In the real estate sector, some people would contract a building, and then spend money to rent someone else’s construction qualification certificate, so that they could smoothly build a house and make a lot of money. Huang Chuan probably belonged to this category, because he knew very well what Huang Chuan did before, and it had absolutely nothing to do with construction.
Huang Chuan’s smiling face suddenly became a little stiff when he heard Lu Chengyu’s question, and he stammered, “This… I just started working in this industry recently, and I need President Yan’s help, a lot of help.”
“What you mean is, Mr. Huang, you have never done this kind of work before?” Lu Chengyu smiled meaningfully, and suddenly said in Huang Chuan’s dazed look, “I wonder if you two would like tea or coffee? I’ll go and pour it for you two.”
“No need,” Third Uncle Yan saw that Lu Chengyu was not happy with everything, and his tone was not much better. So, he just stood up and said, “Nephew, please think about this matter carefully. But since you are busy, I will leave first.”
He then walked to Lu Chengyu, looked at the smiling young man, patted his shoulder and said: “Young man, you are courageous.”
Lu Chengyu smiled and lowered his head and said: “Thank you Mr. Yan San for the compliment, I don’t deserve it.”
“Humph!” Third Uncle Yan waved his hand and left. Seeing this, Huang Chuan said goodbye to Yan Mu, and then followed him out. As he walked out, he looked at the handsome young man standing at the door for several more times, and then he saw the young man show him a somewhat strange smile.
He went out and walked into the elevator. Looking at the two bodyguards covering their abdomens behind his uncle, he said with emotion: “Who was that young man just now, is he President Yan’s secretary? He looks really young.”
“Who knows what he is,” Third Uncle Yan sneered, “College students who just graduated this year have now been transferred to work with Yan Mu. What’s the trick in this, only they themselves know.”
After hearing this, Huang Chuan’s mind suddenly went astray. Could it be that President Yan was the same as him and liked that? He looked very serious, but he didn’t expect him to be such a person.
But that young man just now was really interesting. No wonder he could even hook the president of Huading.
The president’s office returned to calm again. Yan Mu saw Lu Chengyu bending down to clean up the bonsai that was knocked over by the bodyguard just now, and asked, “Do you know that Huang Chuan just now?” Otherwise, a person like Lu Chengyu would not have had that attitude just now.
Lu Chengyu placed the bonsai at a good angle. Hearing Yan Mu’s question, he clapped his hands and said, “I’ve heard of this person. He has some problems with his character. If the community in Jinhe County is handed over to him, it will be a small matter for him to make money. But if he cuts corners and causes housing quality problems, it will be a big deal.”
“Well, the construction of Huading cannot be handed over to such a person,” Yan Mu nodded, and added, “This person’s appearance is not very good either.”
Lu Chengyu glanced at Yan Mu silently, then nodded, “You are right.” It was a sin for a scum like Huang Chuan to be alive. For such a person who was immoral, lacked talent and lacked looks, what kind of mistake did his parents make to allow such a flawed kid to win first place in the race of life?
Yan Mu looked at the bonsai that had been arranged, “Thank you for what you said just now.”
“I am your assistant, and it is my professional ethics to deal with these problems,” Lu Chengyu smiled, “I have been lacking exercise recently, and my feet are not strong enough.”
Yan Mu’s hand involuntarily fell to his abdomen, and he said solemnly, “It’s already very good.”
“Thank you for the compliment,” Lu Chengyu glanced at the time and said, “It’s almost five o’clock. The people from the Human Resources Department will come up to talk to you later. I’ll go out first.”
Yan Mu looked at the closed door and put his attention back on the documents, but he still looked up from time to time at the bonsai that was placed neatly.
When it was time to get off work, Lu Chengyu saw that he didn’t need to work overtime, so he went to the parking lot to get the car. When he drove out, he saw Third Uncle Yan and Huang Chuan getting into a car one after another. They still had smiles on their faces, and there was no trace of the anger they showed when they left the president’s office in the afternoon.
The two left the president’s office before 5 pm. Now it was time to get off work, and they just came out. Who did Third Uncle Yan take Huang Chuan to see in the company?
Controlling the speed of the car, Lu Chengyu drove the car steadily out of the underground parking lot. The afterglow of the sunset would not make him feel warm, but only hot. In summer, seeing the sun was a sign of heat.
Turning on the air conditioner in the car, Lu Chengyu sneered. It was not that easy for Huang Chuan to get on Huading’s car.
Sure enough, in the next few days, Huang Chuan came to Huading several times and invited people from Huading’s management to dinner. However, because the higher-ups didn’t give in, no one dared to respond to Huang Chuan’s request.
After a few days, Lu Chengyu had just come out of the elevator. He hadn’t walked to his car, when someone suddenly came out of the side. After recognizing the person, he pretended to be frightened and not seeing the people as he raised his leg to hit him.
After the man slammed into the ground and made a dull noise, Lu Chengyu said surprisingly: “Isn’t this Mr. Huang? I had just smashed a thief who tried to steal my wallet two days ago. I saw someone rushing over and thought he was coming to take revenge, so I moved my feet. I didn’t think it was you. I am so sorry.”
“It’s nothing, nothing,” Huang Chuan stood up with a raised stomach and smiled. “A misunderstanding, is Mr. Lu off work?”
Lu Chengyu raised his eyebrows. It seemed that Huang Chuan specifically inquired about him. Otherwise, how could he know his surname?
“Where is Mr. Huang injured, is it better to go to the hospital?” He knew how to kick people. The kick wouldn’t hurt people seriously, but it hurt very much. It could be seen from the thin sweat on Huang Chuan’s forehead and pale face that he must be in serious pain right now.
“Don’t worry, I am not hurt,” Huang Chuan said with a smile. “I came today because I just wanted to ask Mr. Lu to have a meal together. I don’t know if Mr. Lu has time?”
Although Lu Chengyu liked to eat white food, but in the face of people like Huang Chuan, there was really no appetite, just wanting to refuse, then he heard the sound of footsteps coming from behind. He couldn’t help but look back and see Yan Mu coming out of the elevator. His back was straight and his pace was firm. He probably saw Huang Chuan hurt his eyes. He felt that this time the Yan Mu was filled with a feeling of “I am very handsome, I am rich, and I am the CEO.”
