Are you jealous?

  The meeting was about the development project of a piece of land recently purchased by Shenyang, located in the most prosperous business center of N City. Due to its long history, many buildings in N City have become dilapidated, which is inconsistent with the city's rapid economic growth in recent years. Therefore, the N City government has also invested heavily in rebuilding the city's appearance this time.

  They chose to hand over this land to Shenyuan for development, firstly because he is the main leader of N city's economic development, and most importantly, they valued Shenyuan's outstanding and unique design as well as his excellent building quality.

  Regarding the development case designer, the planning department manager first recommended his most capable young general Fang Dongchen. Most of the executives agreed, but some also recommended other designers, and everyone had a heated discussion about it.

  Xu Liuwen remained seated in her own position, bowing her head and silently doing her own job. She could sense that although he seemed to be listening to those people's discussion, his eyes were actually fixed on her all the time.

  She couldn't help but feel infuriated, he had the nerve to take another woman to a hotel and even got caught by the media, how dare he look at her with such audacity? Was he trying to provoke her or what? As she thought this, she furiously pounded away at her computer keyboard, venting the anger burning inside her.

  She didn't notice that the man on the first seat raised the corner of his mouth with satisfaction after seeing her reaction, and then interrupted the discussion among the crowd.

  "I have just the right person in mind!"

  As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone naturally stopped arguing and cast their eyes on him, eagerly waiting for him to reveal the person in his mind. Suddenly, Xu Liuyan's back felt a bad premonition, and then she heard his not-too-loud but clear and powerful voice echoing through the large conference room.

  "Secretary Xu!"

  As soon as this was said, everyone was shocked, including Xu Liuyi. She followed the crowd and cast a surprised gaze at him, only to see him slowly getting up and saying,

  "Alright, it's settled then. Let's disperse!"

  He finished speaking and was about to leave when Xu Liu suddenly stood up and coldly shouted at him.

  "Wait!"

  He raised his eyes and looked at her, raising an eyebrow to indicate that she had something to say. She took a deep breath before suppressing the fire in her heart.

  "Director Lu, didn't you just make some mistake?"

  What she meant to say was, "Are you out of your mind? Didn't you sleep with another woman last night and mess up your brain?" He's joking, although she loves architectural design, it doesn't mean a nobody like her can take on such a big responsibility.

  She said this, and others followed suit, with the planning department manager speaking cautiously.

  "Yes, Director Lu, this project is a major one that represents the image of N City. How can Secretary Xu, just an ordinary clerk, be involved in the design?"

  The HR manager followed up on the conversation

  "During the interview, I saw that Secretary Xu did not have any certificates or qualifications in architectural design. This is a serious matter after all, so I still hope that General Lu will reconsider!"

  Other executives echoed in unison, but were also puzzled in their hearts. What's wrong with Lu today? He actually let a secretary do the design? Is he going to send someone from the secretarial department to supervise the planning department's work? But he has never been that kind of person before. Once he trusted them, he would never interfere with their affairs.

  Lu Zhou saw the reaction of the crowd and stood there with his hands in his pockets, scanning the circle of people with different expressions, before calmly opening his mouth.

  "If I said that those architectural design drawings signed 'Yan' which the planning department has been studying all along were actually drawn by Secretary Xu?"

  After a burst of gasps, the crowd fell into stunned silence again, and they cast their astonished and disbelieving gazes at Xu Liuyi once more. Xu Liuyi VS Xu Liuyi - it really was connected, but how could it be so unbelievable?

  A year ago, he somehow got his hands on some architectural drawings and distributed them to the designers in the planning department. Everyone was taken aback by the smooth lines and novel styles of various buildings in these designs, which were unique and distinctive, whether it was an office building, residential area or villa district, all exuding a luxurious and grand style.

  Every drawing had a small "Yan" character at the bottom, which seemed to be a woman's name. For a long time, they were very curious about this mysterious woman and even tried to search for her online, but unfortunately, they found nothing.

  Xu Liu was so shocked that she couldn't say a word, and just stood there staring at him, "Liu"? How did he know that the name she used when drawing pictures was this? And what made her drawings be studied by people in the planning department? What's going on here? Didn't only Leisi know about those drawings of hers?

  Perhaps seeing her doubts, he appropriately opened his mouth to explain

  "Lei is a very good friend of mine!"

  Although she said that those drafts were guided by him, he did not intend to tell her this fact. Before she made a name for herself in this line, he would rather stand behind her silently and guide her with all his heart.

  The planning department manager barely regained his composure.

  "Director Lu, do you think this is okay? Secretary Xu is a woman after all, and this project is so big. When the time comes to start construction, it's inevitable that she'll have to go to the site for inspections. Otherwise, why don't we let Fang Dongchen from our planning department work with her on this project? That way, when it comes to going to the site and running errands, a man can do it."

  ？”

  The planning manager is a conscientious person who also considers the interests of Shenyuan. Although this secretary is that "Pian", after all, it's a new person, and it's better to be cautious. On the other hand, he has also heard that Fang Dongchen is pursuing this girl. Xiao Fang is his trusted subordinate, so he naturally hopes that he can gain a beautiful marriage, just in time to match them up.

  But why did he feel that Lu's gaze was like a sharp knife, coldly piercing him the moment his words fell? He couldn't help but shiver all over, then raised his hand to wipe away the sweat on his forehead and sat down with a thud.

  Lu Zhou was so angry that he wanted to throw the damned project manager out of the window, it's really which pot doesn't open mention which pot, who did he suggest cooperate with her? It just so happens that he suggested Fang Dongchen, who has a crush on her!

  But he had to admit that the project manager was right, she was a girl and he couldn't bear to let her run around the construction site and suffer, indeed needing a male partner. Lin Sen glared at the project manager and squeezed out a word from between his teeth.

  "Good!"

  Then he turned around and left, the planning manager was confused and sweating profusely. Why did he feel like he had died once in General Lu's eyes?

  As soon as he left, the conference room immediately boiled over with discussions about how he had forced his way to let her take charge of this engineering project design. There were both good and bad comments, but Xu Liu didn't want to listen to their nonsense, so she hugged her things and rushed out too.

  She stormed into his office without even knocking, and he was sitting there waiting for her with a calm expression, as if he had expected her to come. She looked at him with an air of indignation and questioned him aggressively.

  "Lu Zhouyue, what do you mean? You're not trying to use this as an excuse for your mistake last night, are you?"

  He knew she had a passion for architectural design, so he intentionally assigned her such tasks to make her grateful to him and then not pursue the matter of last night. Such a deep-hearted thing, he could do it.

  Lu Zhou couldn't help but laugh.

  "Liuyi, how did the design case get mixed up with last night's matter? Why are you so furious? I said, are you jealous?"

  As soon as she spoke, Xu Liu also felt that her voice was a bit too sharp. She didn't know how she had accumulated such a big fire, and now that he said this, she finally suppressed her anger, but her tone was still sarcastic.

  "Do you think I need to be jealous of a man who has an affair outside of marriage?"

  Lu Zhou listened to her mentioning one betrayal after another, one infidelity after another, and felt a headache coming on.

  "How can you be so sure I went off the rails last night? Did you catch me in bed with Wen Feiying with your own eyes? Just because we entered the hotel door one after another, does that mean I had an affair?"

  Xu Liu was so angry that his whole body was trembling.

  "You're too shameless! Do you need to be caught red-handed before you'll admit it?"

  He looked at her coldly for a long time before suddenly standing up and walking towards her.

  "You know what's going to happen when you get into bed with me, don't you? Take a sniff of my clothes, can you smell that woman on me?"

  She turned her face away in disgust.

  "After everything is done, can't you just take a bath to destroy all the evidence? Besides, aren't these clothes newly changed? Even if there's a smell, it can't be smelled anymore, right?"

  She didn't believe him at all and viciously accused him of infidelity, saying he had betrayed their marriage. This made Lu Zhou even angrier, and he lowered his voice.

  "Then take a look at me and see if there's any mark she left on me!"

  He spoke as he raised his hand to unbutton his shirt, and Xu Liu was startled by his actions, retreating and dodging him repeatedly.

  "Lu Zhouyue, what are you doing? You're taking off your clothes in broad daylight, aren't you ashamed?"
