Chapter 976 Miss Shen Delivers Snacks

Lu Xingye had always introduced Shen Lu to others as his fiancée.

This was the first time Shen Lu had introduced herself like this.

She noticed the obvious surprise and discomposure of the beautiful woman opposite her, and found it somewhat amusing.

It's true that outstanding people are easily noticed.

"So you're Mr. Lu's fiancée. Hello, I'm Yan Rui, deputy director of the Public Cultural Services Department of the Chengxi District Cultural Tourism Management Center."

Shen Lu said in surprise, "Hello, Director Yan."

This woman doesn't look much older than her, yet she's already a director; she has a bright future ahead of her.

"Don't look at me like that, my position is nothing special." Yan Rui saw through Shen Lu's little curiosity.

"I thought Mr. Lu was drunk and had offended you. I never expected that Miss Shen was actually Mr. Lu's fiancée."

"Since Miss Shen is here, let's go inside and get something to eat."

Yan Rui is truly adept at handling situations and has a strong ability to adapt to changing circumstances.

She did not lose her composure after learning that Lu Xingye had a fiancée.

It's perfectly normal for such an outstanding man to have a fiancée.

Unfortunately, her plan fell through.

Yan Rui's gaze only fell on Lu Xingye for a moment before she politely looked away.

"No need," Shen Lu refused, pointing to her own private room. "I'm in the next room."

The next private room was smaller than Yan Rui's, but it was said that this private room was always kept as a spare.

Those who can be in this room either have personal connections with the boss or belong to a special group.

Sure enough, Mr. Lu's fiancée couldn't be an ordinary person.

He just looks a bit young.

Lu Xingye rubbed his temples before looking at Yan Rui: "Director Yan, please go in first. I'll go next door for a bit."

Yan Rui gained a new understanding of Shen Lu.

That means Lu Xingye values ​​this fiancée very much.

Otherwise, Lu Xingye would have simply taken her back to his private room instead of following her to her own room.

Going to greet her shows that you value the people on her side more.

Are any of Shen Lu's elders in there?

Yan Rui didn't have much of an impression of this girl. She was just curious: what kind of person could be engaged to the head of Yuanyang Group?

She was still somewhat dazed when she returned to the private room.

"Why did Director Yan come back alone? Where is President Lu?"

The middle-aged man looked at Yan Rui with a puzzled expression.

Is Mr. Lu still in the restroom?

"Mr. Lu's fiancée is in the next private room, and he went over to say hello."

Yan Rui explained with a smile.

The middle-aged man was taken aback. He had seen through Yan Rui's thoughts, which was why he had been trying to match her with President Lu.

Who knew that President Lu actually had a fiancée?

He turned to the manager sent by General Manager Lu and asked, "Manager Yang, does your General Manager Lu have a fiancée?"

Manager Yang nodded: "That's right."

Manager Yang had also witnessed the previous matchmaking between Director Yan and General Manager Lu.

Some of them were just watching the drama unfold, after all, President Lu and Miss Shen's relationship was stable, and no one could break them apart.

Mr. Lu has always been a man of integrity, and no matter how many women he tries to seduce, he has never succeeded.

Yan Rui does have advantages, but let alone her being just a low-level cadre in Yucheng, even if she were from the capital, Lu Xingye wouldn't take her seriously.

Giving Yan Rui face is giving face to the Yan family behind her, and it is also a sign of respect for her.

After all, Yan Rui had been helping out before the food court was completed; she really put in the effort.

Manager Yang reported it, and Lu Xingye kept it in mind.

But if he were to be misunderstood as having other intentions towards her, he would probably have to explain on the spot.

Sure enough, the result of Director Yan going out was not ideal.

Manager Yang knew that Miss Shen had returned to Yucheng, but he didn't expect her to be in the next private room tonight.

"Why isn't Mr. Lu's fiancée here for dinner?"

Zhang Ke also took good care of Yan Rui because he knew Yan Rui's parents.

This sentence seems to carry a hint of accusation.

Manager Yang was fairly respectful to Zhang Ke, but he doubted that Zhang Ke could control his boss, Mr. Lu.

"Isn't Mr. Lu's fiancée in the next private room? They must have a date."

This meal was originally intended for their internal staff to eat together.

Yan Rui and Zhang Ke were there to watch the rehearsal because some leaders were to be invited tomorrow, so they came to check the procedures and see if there were any problems.

Manager Yang naturally invited the two of them to have dinner together.

Who knew that eating would cause trouble?

He now deeply regrets his past actions.

The formal celebration banquet was supposed to be tomorrow night, so why did he have to go through all this trouble tonight?

I should have known better than to try and impress President Lu.

Manager Yang even suspected that he might be delaying President Lu's important business.

"If Zhang Ke wants to see President Lu's fiancée, he can go to the next private room."

Manager Yang's words immediately changed Zhang Ke's expression.

No matter what, he's a section chief. It would be too unbecoming of him to take the initiative to greet Lu Xingye's fiancée!

But what Manager Yang said just now was clearly a warning to him not to take himself too seriously.

How dare you interfere with Mr. Lu's fiancée?

Zhang Ke finally came to his senses; Lu Xingye was not someone he could control.

If he needs anything, he can directly contact his superiors; there's no need for him to deal with a mere section chief.

Yan Rui noticed Zhang's embarrassment and changed the subject.

Lu Xingye greeted them from next door and then came over.

He sensed something was off as soon as he came in.

He pretended not to notice.

Soon the waiter brought over a plate of pastries.

"This doesn't seem to be what we ordered." Manager Yang knew that this plate of pastries was quite expensive at Youranju, costing 998 yuan a plate.

However, the pastry tasted exceptionally good; he ate it once and couldn't forget it.

The reason I didn't order it this time was because I was worried that spending public funds on a lavish meal would be criticized, since pastries aren't a must-order main dish.

It can be on the table or it can be not.

"This platter of crystal cakes was a gift from my fiancée."

Lu Xingye answered everyone's questions.

Actually, it was originally prepared by the kitchen specifically for Shen Lu and the others.

The portion size is also twice the usual amount.

Shen Lu remembered that Lu Xingye's employees were quite familiar with her, so she simply had half of it delivered over.

It was just the right amount for one plate, and it didn't look bad when it arrived.

"So it was Miss Shen who sent it." Manager Yang was very happy, and the other employees were also pleased.

These crystal cakes come in four flavors, and each one is irresistible.

Zhang Ke, on the other hand, doesn't have many opportunities to eat at Youranju. After eating one, he wanted to try a second one.

But the others didn't offer him any courtesy; they had already divided the spoils.

Yan Rui thought this Miss Shen was a wonderful person and that she was worth getting to know.

She was now more curious about Miss Shen than President Lu.

Unfortunately, her plan was about to fall through, and she couldn't help but feel resentful, so she could only channel her grief and anger into her appetite.

Next door, Shen Lu sneezed slightly, thinking it was because the air conditioning in the room was too strong.
