chapter 108 owe this young man a favor
John Lu’s face darkened, “Come back!”
“Since when did I become your secretary? You want me to go along with you even to the Chamber of Commerce?” Phoebe Barnes turned to look at him with wrinkled brows and little strength in her voice, “If you are short of female companionship, there are a whole lot of actresses lined up for you, I’ve been filming all day and I’m tired now, I don’t want to toss and turn with you.”
She still has to go to the hospital to see Nancy.
John Lu smiled, looked at her, tilted his head slightly and snickered, “Are you that ungrateful? Do you know how many good words I have said to the Qi Family for you in the past two days? What other boss can do this? I can’t even borrow you for a while?”Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
Phoebe Barnes remembered something and frowned as she asked, “Why help me?”
John Lu lightly hummed a smile, “let you owe this young man a favor, but later to return.”
“Then we’ll talk about it later.”
“…”
The man looked at her once again turned to go, the tip of his eyebrows could not stop jumping, finally could not help but grit his teeth, “Phoebe Barnes, you stop!”
Phoebe Barnes stopped, turned around, and looked at him helplessly, “John Lu, you know I really don’t like going to those kinds of occasions, and I don’t dabble in shopping malls, I won’t know many people at all, you might not even get a chance to talk if you let me tag along, not to mention, I don’t want the media to continue the malicious speculation about our relationship. You can bring any woman, but not me.”
“Do you think this young man wants to go to that kind of shitty meeting? If it weren’t for the temporary inability to find a suitable candidate, do you think this young man would take you there? Even if you don’t have any brains, you’re not even short-tempered.” John Lu coldly began to mock her again.
Phoebe Barnes was a little annoyed, “Don’t you have more women than you can count? Why am I the right one?”
The man’s eyes flicked around her face and said gently, “Because you don’t have the face of a vixen.”
“…”
Phoebe Barnes’ face darkened even more.
John Lu helplessly, simply explained: “My old man gave me a death warrant to participate, and said that I brought the vixen over again he would break my legs, thinking about it, I am surrounded by women, you are the most vigorous fairy.”
“…”
Phoebe Barnes bristled, “What kind of immortal aura can be suppressed by your demonic aura?”
But, in the end, she couldn’t refuse, changed her clothes and followed him to the Chamber of Commerce.
The business meeting is always a little different from those receptions in the entertainment industry, where the eyes are either the stereotypical serious business elite or the fat and greasy middle-aged men, but not many women, Phoebe Barnes wore a white strapless dress to walk beside John Lu, immediately attracting many sideways glances.
Phoebe Barnes took his arm, lowered her eyebrows, and whispered, “You really didn’t bring me here to screw me?”
John Lu’s lips held a smile, his eyes looked ahead, “What is this young man bullying a woman? What’s more, you are brought by me, isn’t your disgrace my disgrace?”
“Good for you to know.”
John Lu glanced at her and took a glass of wine from a passing bartender, shaking it on the tip of his nose and sniffing it, his voice extremely sexy and lazy, “See that fat old man in the white suit in front of you? He may give you a look later, you do not care.”
“Your father?” Phoebe Barnes remembered his words from the hotel earlier and frowned uncharacteristically, “What should your dad do if he gets the wrong idea?”
She didn’t come over here to get herself into trouble.
“Then let him misunderstand.” John Lu took a sip of wine, lightly hooked his lips, suddenly backhanded her hand and walked slowly towards Lu Lao’s side.
Phoebe Barnes blushed slightly and struggled secretly with her small hands, “John Lu, let go of me!”
“If you don’t want him to scold us both in front of everyone, you’ll have to behave yourself.”
“…”
Phoebe Barnes glared slightly, chagrined, “What does it matter to me if he scolds you? You let go of me first.”
With a son like that, it’s amazing his dad wasn’t pissed off.
John Lu ignored her, led the person a few steps to Lu Lao and lazily said, “I’m coming.”
Lu Lao was joking with a group of cooperative friends, the smile on his face had not yet dispersed, but the moment he saw him, the smile Rong disappeared and became extremely stern, “Why did you not come until now?”
The indescribable majesty of the situation made Phoebe Barnes shudder in her heart and move behind John Lu.
“Waiting for someone!” John Lu didn’t hide it either, his tone was extremely light and he still had a hangdog look.
Lu Lao immediately frowned, sharp and deep eyes swept to Phoebe Barnes behind him in an instant, without the slightest evasion, said in a deep voice: “I let you come to learn business who let you bring women here again?”
Phoebe Barnes gulped softly, she is now really do not doubt what John Lu just said, Lu old education son is really no occasion.
John Lu seems to be accustomed to his reproach, his face does not show any fluctuation, lightly smiled and raised the hand holding Phoebe Barnes, said immodestly: “I can’t learn anything without a woman around. Since I’m already here, why do you care so much?”
Lu Lao looked at the two men’s overlapping and clasped hands, the bottom of his eyes deepened slightly, his eyes moved, and began to seriously look at Phoebe Barnes.
Unlike those women he used to see around his son, heavy make-up, sexy and arrogant completely non-existent, it can be said that the temperament is completely opposite, even the pair of exceptionally bright clear eyes with a touch of restraint and nervousness.
He looked at his son again, his eyes with suspicion, living like he was used to seeing him drink wine every day and suddenly one day drink water kind of accidental sense.
Lu Lao slowly remembered the information reported by his assistant these few times, he seems to be a lot calmer recently, not giving him too much trouble, could it also be related to this woman?
In just a second or two, the stern look on his face eased for a few moments and he said to John Lu, “Since you brought her here, take good care of her. You can take her for a walk first, and then come back to my side later.”
John Lu’s eyebrows twitched involuntarily, turning his eyes to glance at Phoebe Barnes, the smile on his face deepened, and his voice remained lazy, “Yes, I’ll come to you when I’ve done enough shopping with her.”
Phoebe Barnes, “…”
John Lu took Phoebe Barnes away, passing by a number of people he knew to greet him, he also did not pay attention.
Phoebe Barnes saw this and broke his grip, wrinkling her brow, “I’ve dealt with your dad for you too, can I go back now?”
John Lu gave her a disgusted look, “Didn’t you see the old man’s attitude just now? He is very pleased with you, he is so shrewd old fox, if he sees you go alone, he will surely understand that I have cheated him.”
“Why should he be happy with me?” Phoebe Barnes looked at him with suspicious eyes, but the next second she understood what was going on and glared at him, “You really are counting on me again.”
His dad had really misunderstood her as his new woman.
