MLROCSHR Chapter 19

Chapter 19: Surprise

Qi Luzhi refused Lian Xun’s invitation to spend the holiday together.

But Lian Xun wouldn’t give up so easily.

He racked his brains for several days, planning to give Qi Luzhi a big surprise for New Year’s Day.

December 31st.

Lian Xun was excited from morning till night, unable to hide the little excitement in his heart. When they went to the company together, Qi Luzhi used the corner of his eye to glance at Lian Xun, who was looking at him and smiling inexplicably. He couldn’t help but ask, “What are you smiling at?”

Lian Xun shook his head, “Nothing.”

“You have to go home early tonight, okay?”

Lian Xun left this sentence hanging in the air. Qi Luzhi turned his head and glanced at him, not taking it seriously.

Just after lunchtime, Lian Xun found an excuse to leave the company early, and also told Ling Yu to keep it a secret, not to tell anyone that he had left early.

Especially not to tell Qi Luzhi!

Lian Xun returned to the Villa, where a large truck was parked at the door, apparently his order had arrived early.

“Master, just unload the things and put them at the door,” Lian Xun said, opening the gate and pointing to an open space in front of the door.

“No problem.” The master responded briskly, directing the other two younger guys he brought to start working.

Afterwards, he lit a cigarette and asked Lian Xun, “Young man, what are you going to do with so much stuff all at once?”

“It’s nothing, it’s just that the one at home likes it, so I bought it to give him a holiday surprise,” Lian Xun said embarrassedly.

“Oh~” The master smiled knowingly, “So attentive, if I were that girl, I would definitely be moved to tears.”

“Hehe!”

Not a girl, but a young man like him.

But Lian Xun didn’t say it.

After sending the master away, Lian Xun looked at the bare lawn around the Villa and took a deep breath, “Let’s get to work!”

This was no small project, and it had to be completed before Qi Luzhi came back, so time was still very tight.

The winter wind was piercingly cold, and the weather was gloomy, as if it was going to snow. Before long, Lian Xun’s nose and ears were red with cold, and every breath exhaled visible white air. His fingers were also a little unresponsive.

When had this little young master, who had always been pampered, ever suffered such hardship!

However, as soon as he thought of Qi Luzhi, he was full of energy again.

The hopeful young man was so busy shuttling back and forth on the lawn, forgetting the cold, forgetting the time.

The sky gradually darkened.

Sheng Shao Group.

Due to the arrival of New Year’s Day, Qi Luzhi and Li Yang discussed and gave everyone two hours off in advance. The employees were overjoyed and praised President Qi and President Li as the best bosses in the world.

Poor corporate slaves, a little favor and kindness made them as happy as if they had won the lottery.

Qi Luzhi said “Happy New Year” to Li Yang and planned to go home, but he couldn’t find Lian Xun anywhere after searching for a long time.

“Where is President Lian?” Qi Luzhi grabbed Ling Yu, who was about to leave work, and asked.

Ling Yu glanced at Qi Luzhi timidly, and stammered, “President Lian… President Lian, he… I don’t know, maybe he left work early, after all… tonight is New Year’s Eve, he wants to spend it with someone he likes, right.”

He always felt a natural sense of fear when he saw Qi Luzhi, like a mouse seeing a cat.

“Forget it.” Qi Luzhi waved his hand and walked away with a gloomy face.

This Lian Xun said he wanted to spend New Year’s Day with him, but he couldn’t be found and his phone couldn’t get through. Who knows where he ran off to fool around!

Qi Luzhi felt a burst of irritability in his heart, and was too lazy to continue searching, so he simply went home.

On the way, he made several more calls to Lian Xun, but no one answered!

It was starting to snow sporadically outside, and the roads were full of couples, whispering sweet nothings to each other.

Qi Luzhi saw this and felt even more upset!

Suddenly the phone rang. Qi Luzhi immediately picked it up and saw that it wasn’t Lian Xun!

He rolled his eyes and answered irritably.

“I’m talking to you, Wei Xueming, why did you suddenly think of calling me instead of spending New Year’s Day with your little lover?”

“Sigh, isn’t it because I was just dumped and need someone to comfort my injured little heart? Come to Phantom Box 306, Li Yang is also there, let’s have a drink together, it’s been a long time since we got together.”

Qi Luzhi pondered for a moment and replied, “Okay.”

Anyway, he couldn’t find Lian Xun, and he had nothing to do at the moment. He was feeling depressed and wanted to drown his sorrows with alcohol.

Phantom was a well-known place of entertainment for celebrities and gentlemen in Xuan Cheng. Most of the people who could come here knew each other.

After all, there were only so many people in Xuan Cheng who were well-known.

Qi Luzhi was led to the box by a staff member. As soon as he entered, he was grabbed by the shoulder by a flamboyant young man wearing a red leather jacket, who was full of alcohol.

“Welcome to President Qi, it’s not easy to get you to come.” Wei Xueming held a glass of wine in his other hand and drank it all in one gulp.

Qi Luzhi pushed him away with a look of disgust and sat down next to Li Yang, slowly saying, “If your patients saw you like this, who would dare to ask you to see a doctor?”

Wei Xueming snorted with a laugh, “They can’t possibly see it.”

Qi Luzhi was too lazy to continue arguing, and poured himself a glass of wine, clinking glasses with Li Yang.

Wei Xueming was a doctor who graduated from the best medical school in the country and worked at the best hospital in Xuan Cheng.

During the day, he was a white-clad angel who saved lives, the perfect son-in-law candidate in the eyes of many mothers.

At night, he was a libertine who frequented bars and brothels, the dream lover that many girls loved but couldn’t get.

It was difficult for ordinary people to associate these two images together, but this happened to appear on the same person.

Wei Xueming was Li Yang’s family doctor. When Qi Luzhi was drinking to the point of a stomach hemorrhage during a business dinner, Li Yang asked him to treat Qi Luzhi, and the three of them became acquainted.

Qi Luzhi and Li Yang drank while chatting about work. Wei Xueming felt very unhappy being ignored, “Hey, I’m the one who called you to accompany me, but you two are drinking together, treating me like air?”

“I don’t care, we won’t go home until we’re drunk tonight, no one is allowed to leave first.”

Saying that, he quickly picked up Qi Luzhi and Li Yang’s phones on the table and stuffed them into his pocket, “Confiscated first, no one is allowed to leave first.”

“Okay, tonight we two will accompany you to the end.” Li Yang smiled helplessly.

Over here, Lian Xun finished his work. The sky was already snowing heavily, shining brightly in the dark night.

Lian Xun put down the last pot of flowers and warmed his frozen hands in front of his mouth. He looked around at his masterpiece, revealing a satisfied smile.

Returning to the house, he picked up the phone on the sofa, opened it, and was shocked!

36 missed calls!

All from Qi Luzhi!!

He found it troublesome when he was busy in the afternoon, so he left his phone in the house. He didn’t expect to be so engrossed in his work that he didn’t even hear the phone ring.

Lian Xun quickly called Qi Luzhi back.

No one answered!

He made several more calls, but still no one answered.

Lian Xun was anxious. Was Qi Luzhi angry with him for not answering the phone?

No wonder he wasn’t back so late.

If Qi Luzhi didn’t answer, he would keep calling until he answered.

In the Phantom box, Wei Xueming was annoyed by the incessant ringing of the phone and asked Qi Luzhi angrily, “Who did you offend? Phone bombing so late, how unethical!”
