    Chapter 08

    On Wednesday, He Jianshan will go to Lucheng for inspection.

    In the past on business trips, if there were no special circumstances, Lin Hui would definitely follow him. As a result, this time, He Jianshan proposed to let him stay in the company.

    Lin Hui was a little puzzled when he heard it: "Mr. He, are you sure?"

    He Jianshan hesitated for a while, but still nodded: "You stay."

    Lin Hui didn't ask any further questions. He Jianshan must have his reasons for this arrangement. He just obeyed as a subordinate. But don't know if He Jianshan forgot, until he was on a business trip, he didn't arrange any important work for Lin Hui.

    Temporarily canceling a business trip was abrupt, and Lin Hui always felt unaccustomed to working alone in the office. After quickly solving the things that needed to be dealt with, he touched the east, looked at the west, and finally couldn't help going around the various departments, but everyone was surprised when they saw him: "Lin Zhu, why didn't you follow He? Always on business trips?"

    It seems that the company colleagues are not used to it more than him.

    However, Lin Hui was obviously not the only one who didn't get used to it.

    In the hotel in Lucheng, Annie and two other entourages were sorting materials in the living room of the suite. He Jianshan was sitting on the sofa in the inner room. Bright and then dark, the light cuts his impatience into shadows. After a while, He Jianshan stood up and said, "I'll go out."

    The busy staff in the suite stopped, and everyone looked at each other. Annie bit her head and replied, "Okay, Mr. He, I'll call you when I'm done."

    He Jianshan came to the cafe on the top floor of the hotel. There was no one at the moment, and the light music played in the cafe slowly eased his discomfort. He Jianshan ordered a random cup of coffee, then sat on the sofa and clicked on WeChat.

    He wanted to send a WeChat message back to Lin, but he didn't know what to say.

    Because it was a temporary decision not to bring Lin back, He Jianshan himself was not prepared, and he felt very uncomfortable this day. According to the past, he should be in the hotel room to sort out the contents of the day's inspection with Lin Hui, but at this moment, facing other people, he has no desire to discuss. Of course, he could also call Lin Hui, but he didn't take Lin Hui on a business trip because he hoped that he could relax a little these two days—

    He needs to refrain from "squeezing" Lin Hui.

    Lin Hui was lying at home at the moment, texting Annie on WeChat.

    10 minutes ago, Annie directly called for help on WeChat, saying that Mr. He felt unhappy, and asked Lin Hui to check if there was any problem with the workflow.

    Lin Hui was a little speechless, saying that you are not a new employee, and it is not your first business trip. Don't think about what could go wrong.

    Annie: [Because you're not here this time, I always feel unsafe! 】

    Lin Hui: [Can you calm down a bit? He's always been like that]

    Annie: [No, he is very nice to you]

    Lin Hui: [...Okay, let me ask, you should remember to mute your cell phones when you are indoors, Mr. He doesn't like noisy phone rings]

    Annie: [OK, received]

    Lin Hui clicked on He Jianshan's WeChat, but he didn't know how to speak for a while. He Jianshan's WeChat profile picture is of the city skyline under the golden sunset. This picture was taken by Lin Hui. At that time, he stood in the presidential suite on the 32nd floor and enjoyed this beautiful and magnificent view, because the mobile phone was charging in another room. He was too lazy to go back and fetch it, so he borrowed a mobile phone from He Jianshan to record the scene.

    "The sunset melts gold." He Jianshan said at the time.

    Although the sunset was beautiful, Lin Hui knew that what He Jianshan liked more must be the urban buildings in the photo. He discovered very early that He Jianshan likes to photograph all kinds of buildings. Under He Jianshan's lens, they take off their coldness and show a gentle arc between the sky, sunlight and tree shadows.

    Lin sent back a WeChat message: [Mr. He, did the inspection go well today? 】

    He Jianshan didn't seem to be busy, and quickly came back: [It's okay. 】

    Lin Hui: [Okay, come back and tell me, I haven't been to Lucheng yet]

    After a while, Lin Hui received a reply from He Jianshan: It was a photo, a photo of the night scene of Lucheng taken by He Jianshan standing in front of the window.

    If people are the heart and soul of a city, then architecture is the skeleton of a city. And the lights lit up at night are the beginning of a grand and unparalleled dream in the whole city.

    Thanks to technology, Lin Hui, a person who has never been to Lucheng, can also share the beautiful dream of Lucheng with He Jianshan thousands of miles away.

    Lin Hui quietly admired it for a while, then replied: [Lucheng is so beautiful. It's getting late, you rest early, let Annie and the others rest early too]

    He Jianshan: [Okay. 】

    He Jianshan quickly returned to his room. Annie clearly felt that the boss's emotions were no longer as cold as before, and she gently asked them to go back to rest early. She sighed that Lin Zhu was worthy of being Lin Zhu, and that without Wan Zhu, no one could be without Lin Zhu.

    On the second day of the inspection, the receptionist invited them to experience the characteristics of Lucheng

    Food

    : Lucheng Fragrant Noodles. There is nothing unusual about the noodles. The main reason is that the seasoning of this fragrant noodles is called black cabbage. This is a plant that can only be found in the local area. Grind it and add it, pour a little hot oil and mix it well, and the aroma is completely stimulated. , the noodles are indeed different from other places. Wan Zhu and his party were full of praise, and even He Jianshan, who had always been uninterested in these noodles, couldn't help but ask where they could buy authentic Lucheng noodles to bring back.

    The receptionist's name is Xia Hui, a broad-faced man with a big shoulder and a round waist. He was in trouble when he heard it: "To be honest, Mr. He, we have noodles everywhere in Lucheng, mainly because the seasoning is difficult. The aroma of black cabbage lasts for a long time. It's very short, so the store is all freshly ground and ready to put, and the special gift boxes of fragrant noodles sold in the market are all vacuum-packed dehydrated black vegetables, which basically have no aroma."

    He thought for a moment, and then added: "In this way, before you leave the hotel, I will have someone bring a portion of noodles and freshly ground black cabbage back to you. It should be the same taste if you eat it on the day you arrive in Jinghua."

    He Jianshan did not refuse: "That's a big thank you to President Xia."

    On Friday, He Jianshan gave Annie the computer that he never left, and carried the Luchengxiang prepared by Xia Hui on the plane. By the time a few people arrived at Jinghua, it was already 2:00 p.m., and he asked all the employees who accompanied him on the business trip to go home, while he rushed back to Wanzhu without stopping.

    When He Jianshan arrived at the office, Lin Hui was sitting in his seat reading the documents. He saw He Jianshan push the door open and his eyes lit up: "Mr. He, you are back."

    He Jianshan nodded and handed the bag he had carried all the way to Lin Hui: "Mr. Xia from Lucheng sent some special products and brought you a copy."

    In the past, there were also partners who gave commemorative gifts, but most of them were gift boxes with beautiful packaging. The bag He Jianshan handed over this time looked a bit simple, and Lin Hui couldn't help but be a little curious: "What is Lucheng's specialty?"

    "Noodles. Luchengxiang noodles are delicious. You'd better eat them today."

    He Jianshan's tone sounded a little anxious, and Lin Hui smiled: "Don't be so anxious, right?"

    "It is said that the aroma of the special seasoning is short-lived, so you should eat it earlier. And don't you like noodles?"

    "I wanted to ask last time, why do you think I like noodles, Mr. He?"

    He Jianshan frowned: "Don't you like it? I've seen you eating noodles several times, like the last time I called you and said you were eating beef noodles, and once I saw you eating noodles at a convenience store."

    That time, he had an appointment with a lady for dinner, but halfway through the meal, the other party left early, so he simply returned to the company. In the end, when got on the elevator, found that didn't have the key. Fortunately, saw people from other departments, saying that saw Lin Hui in the convenience store downstairs.

    He Jianshan still remembered that when he suddenly appeared in front of Lin Hui, Lin Hui had noodles on his chopsticks and a bit of red chili oil on the corner of his mouth. He was shocked: "Mr. He, why are you here?!"

    He Jianshan explained patiently: "Miss Feng left beforehand, and I didn't like French food and came back."

    "Ah?" Lin Hui frowned, as if he couldn't understand.

    "Obviously, Miss Feng is not as interested in me as Secretary Feng." Seeing Lin Hui eating half of the noodles and Oden, He Jianshan felt a little hungry, "Is it delicious?"

    Lin Hui was unrelenting: "You are He Jianshan!"

    He Jianshan thought it was a little funny: "Then she is also the daughter of sex."

    He ignored Lin Hui and went to the shelf to get a copy of the noodles and hand it to the salesperson: "I'll have one too."

    But in the end, He Jianshan only took one bite and put it down. The reason was very simple: it was too spicy, and he couldn't stand it. At the same time, he also thought it was incredible. Lin Hui looked so gentle, how could he be able to eat so much spicy food?

    As soon as He Jianshan mentioned the word "convenience store", Lin Hui also remembered it. He didn't understand why he bumped into it twice in total, why He Jianshan decided that he liked noodles, but since the noodles were brought back to him by the other party, Lin Hui still recognized this beautiful misunderstanding. He opened the bag and saw that there were raw noodles packed in a lunch box and a powdered seasoning, and said, "I'll put it in the refrigerator first and bring it back for dinner when I get off work."

    He Jianshan glanced at his watch: "You can leave work early today."

    Lin Hui: "..." There is no need to hurry.

    When he got home from get off work, the first thing Lin Hui did was to make this Lucheng Fragrant Noodles.He carefully placed the plate and took several photos before starting to move the chopsticks. The taste was as delicious as He Jianshan said.After eating the noodles, he carefully looked at the photos on his phone, picked one and sent it to He Jianshan: [Thank you, Mr. He, this noodle is so fragrant and delicious!] Then I posted a circle of friends that only I can see.

    He was stingy, and he wanted to secretly hide many of He Jianshan's memories.

    Lin Hui locked his phone and walked to the balcony.His house is on the third floor, and at first glance, only the lights of the residents on the opposite floor can be seen.

    There is no beautiful night scene like Lucheng, but he still couldn't help taking a photo.He cut to He Jianshan's WeChat chat page, hesitated for a long time, and finally closed the shared mood and the night in his mobile phone.

    Tell me, is this a normal subordinate relationship?
