Chapter 140: It Was My Mother

Paddy shook his head. "I'm not too sure, but judging from the manager's attitude, the person who's coming must have a high status. Let's hurry up and focus."

"Okay."

Gao Yuan was confused. He did not understand why CEO Lu had to personally attend the meeting that was held every six months. He was usually the one to go on behalf of him.

CEO Lu explained. "The meeting with Director Chen at noon is also nearby. I'll go take a look."

It was reasonable and hard to argue with. However, Gao Yuan still felt that something was wrong. This was just a small company under CEO Lu. How could CEO Lu be interested in taking time out of his busy schedule to attend the meeting?

Gao Yuan thought for a moment and suddenly remembered.

This company was no longer the same as before. Now, there were two more employees in this company. One was CEO Lu's son, and the other was CEO Lu's wife.

Then, the question was, did CEO Lu go to visit his son or his wife?

The meeting time was at 10 am. Xiang Xiaoyuan did not have anything to prepare. She had slept a little late last night. Now that she was sleepy, she habitually took out her phone and wanted to order a glass of ice coffee to wake herself up. Just as she was about to place the order, she glanced at the sun outside the window. The temperature outside was now 38 to 39 degrees celsius. She thought of Lu Bei who was still working hard outside and pitied him.

She ordered a glass of Frappuccino for him based on his taste. When the order arrived, Xiang Xiaoyuan placed the frappuccino in a safe place where no one could see and sent a message to Lu Bei: [ I ordered a drink for you. It's near the emergency exit at the back. You can take it yourself. ]

Actually, Xiang Xiaoyuan didn't care if others found out about her identity. After all, she was just a part-time worker.

However, she felt that Lu Bei didn't want others to find out that he was Lu Wanggui's son. Although she could say that she was Lu Bei's relative, a lie would require other lies to cover up. Xiang Xiaoyuan felt that it was troublesome, therefore, she just pretended to be a stranger to Lu Bei.

This way, she did not need to explain what kind of relationship she had with Lu Bei, and she did not need to deal with any unexpected situation.

Lu Bei quickly replied. Under normal circumstances, there were not many goods in the morning, and they would not be busy until 11:30 am. Therefore, he replied quickly: [ Okay, thanks. ]

Lu Bei sneakily went to the place that Xiang Xiaoyuan had told him about. As expected, he found the frappuccino that Xiang Xiaoyuan had bought for him at an inconspicuous place. At this moment, the cup was still cold, he walked out with it and sat in the shade with a few porters.

One of the porters saw the frappuccino in Lu Bei's hand and smiled, "Little Lu, you're spending too much money. I heard that this drink costs 23 yuan per cup."

The others also had nothing to do and looked over when they heard what he said.

"Yeah, I heard my daughter mention it before. She said that it's very expensive."

"It's really amazing. A cup of drinks costs 20-30 yuan. Isn't this robbery?"

"Depends on the target customer. These businesses don't intend to sell this thing to people like us. We are trying to save as much as we can. We won't buy this kind of thing in our lifetime. But nowadays, young people are used to being extravagant. They have to eat good food and drinks. Even their cell phones cost tens of thousands of yuan."

Lu Bei felt uncomfortable when he heard that.

Lu Bei reluctantly explained, "I didn't order it myself."

Instantly, everyone's attention was diverted. One of them came over and asked in a gossipy manner, "If you didn't order it yourself, then is it your girlfriend? Aiyo, you already have a girlfriend at such a young age?"

Lu Bei: "…"

The more he explained, the worse it became.

Since when did he have a girlfriend?! No, how could the person who bought him the frappuccino be his girlfriend?!

"No, it's not a girlfriend," he tried his best to explain.

"Then what is it? Is it a girl who's chasing you? You're good-looking, so it's normal for a girl to chase after you."

"That's right. I think Little Lu's face is even better-looking than the celebrities on TV. There must be a lot of girls chasing after him. But Little Lu, let me remind you, don't play hard to get. It's not nice."

Lu Bei was at a loss for words. In the end, he said it to shut them up. "It's not a girlfriend, it's my mom."

Lu Bei took a sip of his frappuccino. The ice-cold taste was satisfying in midsummer. His ears were slightly red as he explained, "My mom saw that the weather was too hot, so she ordered it for me."

He did not say that it was his stepmother.. Once he said it, it would increase everyone's curiosity about this matter.
