Chapter 159 The boss is here
In front of Ruyi Hotel in Fenyang City.
A beautiful woman in cheongsam was standing at the door, wandering around, with a worried look on her face, as if she was waiting for someone.
She is Xiao Cui, the owner of Ruyi Hotel.
At the beginning, she led the people from the Intelligence Department to Fenyang City, and quickly established a network of relationships in the city. Then, she spent a lot of money to buy this restaurant that was on the verge of bankruptcy, and managed to revive the business.
In a short period of time, Shopkeeper Xiao Cui became famous in Fenyang, and bosses of major chambers of commerce, celebrities, and others would choose Ruyi Hotel as their first choice for dining.
But no one knows that secretly, Ruyi Hotel is now the liaison station of the 88th Army Intelligence Department in Fenyang.
Xiao Cui's beauty naturally attracted the pursuit of many rich second-generations, but they did not dare to force it, because Ruyi Hotel was supported by the city's largest business "Lu's Shanghang", and even the Japanese did not dare to attack the hotel openly.
"Oh, the shopkeeper looks like he's waiting for someone. I want to know who the person is that Shopkeeper Cui can personally receive!"
A young man was joking nearby, and next to him was a girl who looked like she had just reached adulthood, who was her sister.
Xiao Cui ignored the young man, she was used to making a fuss, instead she stepped forward and took the girl's hand and said, "Sister Shiyu, can your brother change his bad habits? He is so lazy all day long."
The girl said shyly, "Sister Cui, you know my brother well. Although he speaks frivolously, he is a good person. He said he wanted to come and see you early this morning, and I couldn't persuade him, so I could only agree to accompany him to lunch at noon."
Lu Yanhao scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Boss Cui, don't listen to my sister's nonsense. I just came here to eat, I don't have any other intentions!"
Xiao Cui rolled her eyes at the other person, then waved to the inside of the store: "Jiujiu, take Mr. Lu and Miss Lu in, today's dinner is on me!"
Lu Shiyu was immediately overjoyed and pushed Lu Yanhao into the store.
"Sister, why is Jiujiu's name so strange?"
"He's just a waiter, so he can be called Luo in any convenient way. Why do you care what he does? It's Sister Xiao Cui's treat today, I want to have a big meal!"
Lu Yanhao was helpless: "My dear sister, our purpose is not to come here for dinner. Why don't you consider your brother's lifelong event? Don't you want Shopkeeper Cui to be your sister-in-law?"
Lu Shiyu said with an innocent face: "Brother, I have told you long ago that Sister Xiao Cui is not an ordinary person. Even my father wants to curry favor with her. I advise you to give up this idea. There are so many young ladies from famous families who want to marry you. Just choose one among them!"
"Alas, they are not even one ten-thousandth as good as Boss Cui..."
......
At the door, Xiao Cui was still waiting. Finally, a face she had been thinking about day and night appeared in the crowd, and then a smile appeared on her face.
That smile is so beautiful!
Xu Le stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her and said, "Xiao Cui, what are you looking at? You look so engrossed!"
It took Xiao Cui a long time to come back to her senses. Without saying a word, she took Xu Le's hand and ran into the store.
Xu Da was stunned for a moment, and followed closely behind. When passing by Jiujiu, the two looked at each other.
On the second floor, Lu Yanhao had no appetite at all when faced with delicious food. All he could think about was Xiao Cui.
Suddenly, he saw Xiao Cui holding Xu Le's hand and walking towards the inner hall. He stood up instantly, feeling jealous.
Lu Shiyu followed the line of sight, but saw nothing, so she asked, "Brother, what are you looking at?"
Lu Yanhao hesitated for a moment, then stood up and went downstairs, but was stopped when he wanted to enter the inner hall.
"Jiu Ba, you dare to stop me?"
Jiuba said with a serious face: "Mr. Lu, have you forgotten the rules of my family? The inner hall is the private place of my shopkeeper. No man is allowed to enter without permission!"
Lu Yanhao pointed in the direction of the inner hall and shouted, "I just saw your shopkeeper bring a man in. Is this still a rule?"
Jiuba still had a cold and serious face and said: "That's my boss, so he is naturally qualified to go in!"
When Lu Shiyu, who had just followed, heard that it was the boss, she didn't care about the unfinished meal and ran out.
Lu Yanhao looked at the direction of the inner hall again and followed Lu Shiyu's footsteps. They were going home to report immediately.
Their father once warned them that they should treat everyone at Ruyi Hotel with courtesy because the boss behind it was not someone they could afford to offend.
This is also the reason why Lu’s Company strongly supports Ruyi Hotel. Xiao Cui revealed some information about Xu Le to him, but only a little.
...
In the inner hall, Xu Da followed Xu Le closely. Just a moment later, when he put his right foot into the door, Xu Le gave him a look. He was shocked and quickly retracted his leg and stepped back, not forgetting to close the door.
Eleven, who arrived early, came out from somewhere and was about to go in to report, but was stopped by Xu Da.
"Boss, why are you stopping me? I have something to report to the young commander!"
Xu Da glared coldly, "Stop talking nonsense. I've been following the young marshal for quite some time, how come you don't have any sense at all?"
Eleven was not convinced. They were all members of the guard team. It was just that you got there first when the number was lined up. It didn't mean anything.
"I don't want to talk to you. I'll go in by myself!"
Xu Da: "You just don't understand. Young Madam is in danger. How long has it been since you last saw Young Marshal? As the saying goes, a reunion after a long separation is better than a wedding night!"
Eleven didn't change much after all. It was only after Xu Da reminded him that he suddenly realized what was going on. He said embarrassedly, "I was careless. There's nothing urgent anyway. It doesn't matter if I wait a little longer!"
"You don't have to wait too long, it will probably only take a few minutes!"
"A few minutes? Is our young commander not good enough?"
.......
At the Lu family's house, Lu Shiyu ran all the way back home, not caring that her father had the habit of taking a nap. She rushed into the room and pulled Lu Ningyi off the bed.
Lu Ningyi hated it most when others disturbed his nap. He was about to get angry, but when he saw that it was his daughter, his anger immediately disappeared.
"It's Shiyu, why are you in such a hurry? You don't look like a lady at all!"
"Father, you still have time to sleep, something big has happened!"
Lu Yanhao also rushed in at this time. Lu Ningyi, who had no place to vent his anger, immediately shouted: "Asshole, is there a mad dog chasing you? You are so flustered, how can you behave!"
"I..." Lu Yanhao was speechless. He just stood obediently by the door and secretly looked up at his sister.
They are all born from the same parents, so why is there such a big difference between them?
Lu Shiyu snorted at her brother and said, "Father, didn't you tell me to visit Ruyi Tower more often when I have time? We were having dinner there just now. Guess who I saw?"
Lu Ningyi gently placed his hand on his daughter's head and asked softly, "Who is it? My little darling is so excited. Did you see a handsome young man? Did you come to ask me to help you propose marriage?"
Lu Shiyu blushed slightly, and then she pushed her father's hand away: "Oh, father, what are you talking about? I don't want to get married. I want to stay with you forever."
"Oh no, we've strayed off topic. Let's get down to business. The boss of Ruyilou is here!"
"What did you say?" Lu Ningyi stood up in shock. "You mean, the boss of Ruyi Building is here? How did you know?"
"That man is about the same age as my brother, and even more handsome. He was brought into the inner hall by Sister Cui herself. I saw it with my own eyes. It was their family's Jiuba who said it!"
Lu Ningyi calmed himself down, then looked at Lu Yanhao. Seeing the other party nod, he was convinced.
He really loves his daughter, but he also understands his daughter. She is 20 years old, but still as playful as a teenage girl.
Although he seemed strict with his son, he actually did it to train him. He imposed restrictions everywhere to prevent him from going astray in this chaotic era.
It is because of this that Lu Yanhao became a clear stream among the younger generation in Fenyang City. He never bullied the common people and never had any contact with the Japanese devils.
Lu Ningyi straightened his shirt, then walked to Lu Yanhao and spoke softly.
Lu Yanhao felt as if he had heard it wrong, so he asked, "Father, are we really going to do this?"
"Go ahead. This matter concerns the rise and fall of our Lu family. Some things must be done at risk!"
