Chapter 148 You Choose One?
After hearing Chen Yan's question, Yu Qiaoqiao remembered that she was the one who took the initiative to find Chen Yan.
She said, "Oh. That's right. I remember now. I came to you to ask you, what do you want to eat for dinner?"
Reminded by Yu Qiaoqiao, Chen Yan looked at the time and realized that it was already 6 o'clock in the evening. It was time for dinner.
He looked at Yu Qiaoqiao, then at Lu Man, and then pondered.
Eh...it just so happens that only Yun Yang’s two girlfriends are here.
Do you want to try your own guess?
In fact, Chen Yan has always suspected that there should be some extra bonuses and rewards if he raises two girlfriends together.
But the few times he had dinner with Yu Qiaoqiao and Lu Man before, no bonus was triggered. It was 10 times the normal amount.
This made him doubt whether he had made a mistake in his judgment.
But later, Chen Yan studied how he fed them.
I discovered…it seemed like every time he had dinner with his two girlfriends, there would be outsiders.
He suspected... maybe this kind of bonus can only be triggered when there are no outsiders around.
Fortunately, there is no one else here today, so I can give it a try.
So he smiled and said, "We're done with today's work! Let's go out for dinner together, the three of us! It's my treat."
Yu Qiaoqiao looked at Lu Man and said, "I'm fine. Sister Manman, how about you?"
Lu Man gave her a complicated look and said, "I have no problem either."
Since both of Yunyang’s girlfriends agreed, things became simple.
After saying hello to Cheng Tianxiang and Fat Fenghuang, and asking them to remember to order meals for the employees, Chen Yan took the two girls and left the company.
After leaving the office, Lu Man put on her sunglasses and mask, making it impossible to recognize who she was or see her expression.
Yu Qiaoqiao, on the other hand, was still as well-behaved as ever, following Lu Man.
Ever since Yun raised Yu Qiaoqiao, a foodie, Chen Yan actually made a guide to nearby places to eat. This made him know all the delicious places nearby.
So he thought about it, took out his cell phone, made a few calls, and ordered a delicious Hunan cuisine restaurant with private rooms.
Because the hotel was not far from the company, the three of them walked there.
But on the road, Chen Yan always felt something strange.
I don't know if it was because Chen Yan was behind on the phone just now, the two girls walked in front hand in hand, chatting quietly. When Chen Yan finished the call and walked over to chat with them, he found that the two girls ignored him.
Chen Yan walked aside and listened to the conversation of the two girls.
Lu Man said, "Qiaoqiao. Have you decided when to take a holiday?"
Lu Man is over 1.7 meters tall, and almost 1.78 meters tall with high heels, and has a tall figure. Yu Qiaoqiao is less than 1.6 meters tall, and wearing sneakers, she looks like a child when walking next to her.
She raised her head slightly, looked at Lu Man, and said, "Sister Manman, we still have a few days of vacation. But the exams will be over next Friday, so we can leave school."
Lu Man nodded, his voice buzzing through his mask, "Then I'll help you move things on Friday?"
Yu Qiaoqiao said quietly, "Actually, I don't have anything. Just a few clothes and toiletries."
Chen Yan listened from the side and asked curiously, "Where is Qiaoqiao going to move to?"
Yu Qiaoqiao looked at Lu Man, and when she saw that Lu Man didn't object, she said, "Sister Manman invited me to live with her during the holidays."
Chen Yan was stunned.
Boss Qiaoqiao wants to live with Lu Man?
this……
Why do I always feel like something is going to go wrong?
Chen Yan looked at Lu Man.
Lu Man was fully armed and her expression could not be seen, but Chen Yan always felt that something was wrong with her.
They arrived at the restaurant's private room and asked the two girls to go in and wait first. Chen Yan ordered the dishes outside and then went into the room.
After entering the private room, Chen Yan confirmed his feeling even more.
Because even without outsiders, Lu Man behaved a little strangely in the private room. He still looked aloof, with a formal smile on his face, and spoke as if he had no emotions.
If she hadn't taken the initiative to pour a glass of water for Yu Qiaoqiao, Chen Yan would have thought that she... had a grudge against Yu Qiaoqiao.
What is going on?
Why is Lu Man's expression so different from when he first entered the office?
Was it because of what happened in the office?
Thinking of this, Chen Yan sat in the main seat, looked at Lu Man who was sitting next to Yu Qiaoqiao, and asked tentatively, "Man Man, are you okay?"
Lu Man was stunned for a moment, glanced at him as if he had just reacted, and quickly shook his head and smiled formally, "I'm fine."
As she spoke, she glanced at the door, and after confirming that no one was coming in, she waved her hand playfully, "Personality, personality."
After saying that, her expression changed again and she returned to her cold look.
Chen Yan looked at her and blinked.
Something is wrong.
Something is definitely wrong.
Although this guy has switched like this before, it was definitely not as smooth as it is today.
Her acting skills aren't that good!
Thinking of this, Chen Yan used his last chance of [Inner Earphones] on Lu Man without hesitation.
The sounds around him gradually faded away, and soon, all Chen Yan could hear was a slow heartbeat of "bang... bang... bang..."
Chen Yan looked at Lu Man, and Lu Man's inner voice gradually emerged.
"Why……."
A long sigh.
Chen Yan waited quietly for Lu Man to speak.
Then……
“…”
“…”
The sound slowly faded away.
Chen Yan looked at Lu Man in confusion.
Chen Yan: ? ?
No more?
Just a sigh! And then silence for more than ten seconds?
Is her mind going blank?
Are all funny people's train of thought so bizarre?
No... this isn't strange, is it?
Chen Yan looked at Lu Man, but Lu Man didn't notice him. She just kept a cool attitude and thought about herself.
Chen Yan felt even weirder.
The atmosphere was a bit strange throughout the rest of the meal.
Chen Yan always wanted to find some topics to chat with his two girlfriends, but only Yu Qiaoqiao looked at Chen Yan with her cute big eyes and then chatted with him in a low voice.
Lu Man was immersed in her own world, always looking cold and distant, as if she was maintaining her own persona.
Just like that, after finishing their meal and paying the bill, the three of them went out of the store.
Chen Yan looked at the time. It was just past 7 o'clock in the evening. However, the longer he stayed in this weird atmosphere, the colder his back felt.
So he said, "It's getting late. I'll take you back."
Hearing Chen Yan's words, Lu Man looked at Chen Yan reflexively and blurted out,
"Who exactly?"
After she finished speaking, she was stunned for a moment, a hint of hesitation flashed across her eyes, but it quickly turned into determination.
She added glumly,
"We don't live together, and we don't go the same way. How are you going to take us here alone?"
"How about...you pick one and give it to me?"
Hearing Lu Man's words, Chen Yan was stunned.
He looked at Lu Man, but his expression could not be seen because of the sunglasses she wore.
At this moment, Yu Qiaoqiao was beside him and whispered, "Chen Yan, you take Sister Manman home."
"This place is quite close to the school. I can go back by myself."
Chen Yan looked at Yu Qiaoqiao, who was looking up at him with a smile.
Chen Yanxin felt as if he was being grabbed.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something.
But at this moment, Lu Man said, "Qiaoqiao. It's okay. I live very close to here. You can go back by yourself."
Chen Yan looked up. Lu Man's words were clearly directed to Yu Qiaoqiao, but her eyes were looking at him.
Chen Yan's heart sank.
If he still doesn't know that something is seriously wrong at this point, he'd be a fool!
These two girls must have noticed something!
Otherwise I wouldn't say that! I wouldn't let myself express my opinion now!
Well...even though Boss Qiaoqiao might not have thought of this, Lu Man definitely did. Because her expression was too serious.
But...how do I express my opinion?
Both of them are girlfriends chosen by the game.
One is my boss Qiaoqiao, who has supported me all the way to where I am today.
The other is... Lu Man, who holds his own future in his hands...
this……
Chen Yan's mind was racing, and he felt like he was facing a life-threatening question.
And no matter which answer you choose, you will lose your life.
So in this case, how to choose?
Chen Yan looked at Lu Man, then at Yu Qiaoqiao.
Suddenly... my eyes lit up.
Hmm...it seems there is a way to deal with it first!
Well... although it's not a cure, but after dealing with it, at least I have time to slowly think of a way to resolve the problem!
Thinking of this, he coughed and said, "What do you mean by choosing you or her? It makes things so awkward. We are all family."
"Besides... who said it's not on the way? Who said I can't send you both at once?"
Hearing Chen Yan say this, Lu Man folded her arms across her chest, raised her head slightly, and looked at Chen Yan with an expression that said, "You make up stories, you make up stories, and keep making up stories."
Yu Qiaoqiao also said weakly, "Chen Yan, it's indeed not on our way. Sister Manman is going east, and I'm going north."
Chen Yan smiled and said, "Yes. But...are you going to move in with your sister Manman during the holidays?"
Yu Qiaoqiao was stunned for a moment, then said in a daze, "Yes."
Chen Yan clapped his hands, "Yes! Look what a coincidence! It's only a little after 7 o'clock, so it's still early. Let's send your sister Manman home first, and then we'll go see her house on the way. You can take a look around and choose a room."
"After that, I'll take you back to school!"
“Isn’t this the best of both worlds?”
Lu Man looked at Chen Yan, her expression slowly froze, and then she was dumbfounded. She opened her mouth but couldn't say anything for a long time.
Yu Qiaoqiao was also confused.
After a while, she smiled and said, "That makes sense!"
After saying that, she looked at Lu Man and said, "Sister Manman, it's still early. Let's go see your new house!"
Lu Man came back to his senses, hesitated for a moment, bit his lip and nodded to Yu Qiaoqiao, "Okay."
Then she glanced at Chen Yan again, wrinkled her nose, and snorted softly, "You can even get around this. You're amazing."
Chen Yan certainly knew what Lu Man was talking about. He laughed dryly and changed the subject, "Let's go, let's go. Let's go to the villa and take a look."
As he spoke, he praised Yu Qiaoqiao, "Let me tell you, that villa is so big and beautiful. It's just like a castle. Your sister Manman is like a princess in it."
Lu Man looked at Chen Yan's adoring appearance and became so angry that she wanted to bite Chen Yan twice.
Why didn't I realize before that this guy was so shameless...
He was determined to get away with it, wasn't he?
