Chapter 8: Rival in Love 3
Han Shao didn't stay at Weekend's place for long before he was called away by Lu Yuqi. Before leaving, Weekend seemed dizzy. When Han Shao said goodbye to her, the girl's face turned red to her ears and her voice was like a mosquito.
"B-Bye..."
Han Shao patted her head and went back to the company. After watching Han Shao's car disappear, Weekend stood there in a daze for a while, then turned back to the radio station. She covered her pounding heart, feeling that her performance just now was really too embarrassing.
Recently, whenever she encountered anything about Han Shao, she would feel like this. She would blush when she thought of him and her heart would beat faster when she heard his voice, just like just now... Suddenly, she was hugged in the arms of a man like this and smelled his pleasant and refreshing scent. She was so panicked that she didn't even know where to put her hands and feet.
I thought to myself over the weekend that I was probably completely trapped in it.
On this side, Han Shao arrived at the company and was called in by Lu Yuqi.
Lu Yuqi is Lu Xiao's father. He is 45 years old, but he looks like he is in his early 30s. He is very elegant. Han Shao has been taught by this uncle since he was a child, so he respects him very much. Although Han Shao is working in the other's company now, Lu Yuqi never spoils him, and Han Shao never uses his power to oppress others. Therefore, if you are not very familiar with them, most people don't know that they are actually uncle and nephew.
"Xiao Shao," Lu Yuqi saw Han Shao coming in and pointed to the chair in front of his desk and said, "Hurry and sit down."
Han Shao took a seat as he was told: "Boss Lu, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Nothing serious." Lu Yuqi poured a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "I heard from Xiaoxiao that you've been getting close to a girl named Weekend recently?"
"Yeah." Han Shao didn't expect Lu Yuqi to ask about this, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked, "Why did you think of asking this?"
"Jinyu has returned to China. She asked me about you right after she came back. I never care about the private lives of you kids, so I had no choice but to ask Xiaoxiao." Lu Yuqi replied with a smile, but then seemed to be a little concerned, "You... met Jinyu?"
"Yes." Han Shao answered truthfully.
Lu Yuqi looked at Han Shao's expression and hesitated to speak several times. Seeing him like this, Han Shao had no choice but to say, "Uncle, if you have anything to say, just say it."
Lu Yuqi seemed to be relieved when he heard this, and then he said, "Xiao Shao, you and Jinyu... is there really no possibility of reconciliation?" Seeing that Han Shao didn't say anything, Lu Yuqi sighed, "Jinyu is actually not a bad child. She has now taken over our Lu's advertising. As you know, she is doing well abroad. Many domestic companies want to find her to shoot commercials, but she did me a favor and said that she was doing it for your sake. What she said was implicit..."
"If I don't get back together with her, she won't take Lu's advertisement, is that right?" Han Shao continued what Lu Yuqi hadn't finished saying.
“Ah…” Lu Yuqi sighed, “It’s all about fan economy now. If Jin Yu can be our spokesperson, and she has recently taken on several popular domestic variety shows, it would not be bad for her to help us get investment. At least we have a platform, but if you don’t want to…”
"Uncle, I really don't want to."
Han Shao interrupted Lu Yuqi coldly without waiting for him to finish his words .
"Uncle," Han Shao said politely and distantly, "Even if I agree to get back together with Lin Jinyu, do you think she will really do her best to help us as she said?"
Lu Yuqi hesitated.
"She won't," Han Shao asserted. "Back then, she could leave me when I was seriously injured because of her dream of becoming a star. Today, she can also break her promise to you for other reasons. If I'm not mistaken, everything you just said was just a verbal promise she made to you, right?"
Lu Yuqi had a look on his face as if he had been hit on the point.
"Sure enough..." A sneer flashed across Han Shao's lips. "Uncle, you have been in the business world for so many years, you should know that verbal promises are not legally effective, right? I think you know very well what kind of person Lin Jinyu is. She is coming back to China now and wants to reconcile with me, but it's just because she has been abroad for so many years and has few friends around her. When she has established a firm foothold in China and becomes really famous, then what will I be? What will Lu's be? Do you still remember why she left in the first place?"
Lu Yuqi seemed to be moved by Han Shao's words, and a hint of understanding emerged in his deep eyes.
"She could have waited until I got better before leaving, but at that time, I would most likely never be able to pick up a paintbrush again in my life, and it was even more likely that I would need her care forever. In fact, the model show abroad was not that urgent, and it was entirely possible to postpone it for a month, but she couldn't wait. She was afraid that I would drag her down, so she fled abroad without even meeting me. Uncle, with Lin Jinyu's personality, how could she really change herself because of a favor?
"In other words, even if I didn't agree to her request, would she really stop cooperating with you in anger? As long as our brand is influential enough, the planning is good enough, and the money is enough, Lin Jinyu is a smart person, and after weighing the pros and cons, she will not really turn against you.
"Besides, I no longer like her. For me, the most important person in my life now is Weekend. If I really do what you said and get together with Lin Jinyu, what will happen to Weekend? I don't want the person I like to be wronged, not even the slightest bit of grievance. I hope you can understand me."
Han Shao said this, stood up, bowed to Lu Yuqi, and then left the office.
Lu Yuqi sat in the boss chair and sighed for a long while: "I really envy you young people..."
After Han Shao made his attitude clear to Lu Yuqi, Lin Jinyu really did not terminate the contract with Lu's company. Lu Yuqi even called him specially for this and praised him for his ability to judge people.
Han Shao just smiled. He didn't have any ability to judge people. He just understood the rules of this world. Besides, he had been in a relationship with Lin Jinyu for several years, so he knew her well.
Everything seemed to have passed, and Han Shao once again devoted himself to preparing a birthday surprise for the weekend. He wanted to hold an art exhibition for the weekend. At the same time, he also prepared a secret gift and wanted to tell her on her birthday on the weekend.
The studio is just one of his many creative places. In fact, Han Shao's current residence is his new studio, but he wants to arrange the exhibition in the old studio of H University. He wants Weekend to understand his past, and he wants to start from that place with Weekend and move towards a new future...
Before they knew it, it seemed like everyone at Moonlight Radio knew that the new intern named Weekend had a very handsome and wealthy boyfriend, who would wait for her downstairs after get off work every day, and would come to see her at noon with a lunch box he made himself. The look in Weekend's eyes was enough to drive a bunch of single guys and overtime workers crazy.
"I say Weekend, you are so lucky." Lu Xiao was eating the lunch box that Han Shao brought to Weekend, and he was amazed. "My cousin has been a playboy since he was a child. He was not nice to anyone. I didn't expect that one day, he would make a loving lunch for you like a good man. The world is really wonderful."
Lu Xiao wanted to continue speaking, but he noticed that something seemed to be wrong with the people around him.
"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?" Lu Xiao, with his mouth full of food, looked at Weekend in confusion.
"Uh... Lu Xiao..." Weekend handed the tissue over gently and glanced at Lu Xiao's back. "Don't talk after eating so much. It would be bad if your cousin heard it..."
"My cousin is in my dad's company right now, how could he hear me? Besides, I'm not wrong. Besides, the things he made are not tasty at all..."
"Why are you eating it even though it doesn't taste good?" A cold voice sounded from behind him, and Lu Xiao, who was eating happily, suddenly came to his senses.
"You are in trouble." Ye Yunze, who was sitting opposite Lu Xiao, looked at her with glee.
Lu Xiao glared at him fiercely, then slowly turned around. Her cousin Han Shao was standing behind her, looking at her with a pair of calm eyes. Lu Xiao was so scared that she stuttered: "Cousin... Cousin..."
Han Shao ignored her and walked straight to Weekend and said, "Why did you give the lunch box I made for you to Lu Xiao?" The implication was that even Lu Xiao didn't get a share of the things he gave to Weekend.
"Hey! I'm your cousin after all!"
Lu Xiao protested, but Han Shao didn't even look at her.
"It's too much. I can't finish it all by myself..." Weekend looked at the big lunch box in front of her. There was almost everything from steamed, boiled, stewed, fried and stir-fried. When she counted carefully, there were actually four dishes and one soup. She looked at Han Shao apologetically, "Actually... I usually eat very little..."
However, Han Shao frowned slightly: "No, you are too thin."
"I'm almost 100 pounds by the weekend!" Lu Xiao shouted.
"She's not even 100 pounds yet, and she's tall, 100 pounds is too thin." Han Shao seemed to glare at Lu Xiao, "You're already so fat and still want to eat, be careful no one will want you."
“Hey, hey, hey, why are you making personal attacks?” Ye Yunze, who had been watching the show with a smile on his face, couldn’t help but speak up. He walked over to Lu Xiao as if jokingly and hugged her, “If no one wants Lu Xiao, don’t you still have me?”
"What does it have to do with you!" Lu Xiao yelled and escaped from Ye Yunze's hand. The two of them soon got into a fight.
Han Shao looked at them and shook his head. He ignored them and took Weekend's hand and went out. The two walked to a secluded place. Weekend blushed and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why did you say that about Lu Xiao?"
"I did it on purpose," Han Shao looked at her with a smile in his eyes, "Someone wanted to be a flower protector, and I just went along with it to help."
"Flower guardian?" Weekend frowned and thought about it.
"Let's not talk about this." Han Shao didn't point it out, but changed the subject. He took out a ticket from his pocket and handed it to Weekend, "My art exhibition is the day after tomorrow, you have to go."
"Art exhibition?" Weekend took the ticket and looked up at Han Shao, with doubt in her eyes, "Are you going to hold an art exhibition? But I don't know much about painting..." She remembered the last art exhibition she went to with Lu Xiao. She couldn't understand the paintings at all. Now Han Shao is also going to hold an art exhibition. She is worried that she doesn't have the artistic talent...
"You don't need to understand that." Han Shao smiled at her and touched her head. "Just go."
Weekend nodded, not quite understanding, put the ticket into his pocket, and smiled at Han Shao, "Okay then."
