Rebirth 2010, the best

Chapter 42 Everyone Needs to Grow Up

Lu Yao has been to United Family Hospital.

When Lu Qing was pregnant in her previous life, Wu Nan heard that the confinement center here was better, so she came with him to ask about the nursing methods. However, after hearing about the nursing fees ranging from more than one million yuan for the highest level to two or three hundred thousand yuan for the lowest level, they said goodbye and left before they even had time to sit down.

After entering the hospital with Xu Ruochu, he thought he would have to use her ID card to help register, just like in a public hospital.

But Xu Ruochu waved her hand and mentioned her name at the front desk. The nurse who had checked the "patient information" immediately stood up and asked about their health with an extremely attentive look. Finally, with an attitude that was... even more service-like than that of a waiter, she took the two of them to the direction of the gynecology department.

Along the way, Xu Ruochu seemed very uncomfortable, and when they arrived at the gynecology area, because men were not allowed, Lu Yao could only sit on a chair outside and wait.

Then... he drank the water that was brought to him by the nurse for the first time in his life.

And this wait lasted nearly two hours.

By the time I saw Xu Ruochu, it was almost noon.

She came out with a female doctor who was probably in her forties.

Lu Yao heard the female doctor say a bunch of words like "negative", "there is no cross infection", "the cleaning method is correct", and Xu Ruochu said "I know, thank you for your hard work, Dr. Ma", and then the two parted.

The female president felt relieved.

"Mr. Xu."

"……Um."

Xu Ruochu nodded, looked at Lu Yao with a somewhat grateful expression and said:

"Lu Yao, thank you."

"Uh……"

Lu Yao was stunned for a moment, then smiled:

"This is what I should do. Are you hungry? Do you want to eat?"

"Not hungry yet, let's go to the mall. I want to buy a washing machine with high-temperature washing function."

"Ok."

Following her request, the two went to the electrical appliance store.

To be honest, Lu Yao doesn't know much about electrical appliances.

But he could see that the washing machine in the rich woman's house was actually sufficient.

But Xu Ruochu didn't seem to think so. After arriving at the mall, because the first store she saw after taking the elevator was Little Swan, the first question she asked the clerk left Lu Yao speechless:

"How much is your most expensive washing machine with high-temperature washing function?"

When the store owner quoted her a price of over 9,000, she didn't say it, but her attitude showed that she didn't like it, so she just left...

The second one is Toshiba. Toshiba has a lot of good products, including a heat pump washing machine that costs more than 70,000 yuan.

When Lu Yao was speechless, Xu Ruochu nodded and asked if there was any stock. After the answer was no, he left again.

Then there is Dr. Meno.

Finally came to Casarte.

Casarte is the most expensive home appliance brand Lu Yao knows, but he doesn’t know whether it is expensive in the sense of a rich woman.

However, when the rich woman heard that Casarte's washing machine with a price of more than 80,000 yuan was in stock, she confirmed the function again, and then said a very classic line:
"Luyao, swipe your card. I want you to deliver it right away, right now. I'm willing to pay more. Can you do that?"

So...it takes half an hour to drive there, but from entering the mall to finishing shopping, it takes less than half an hour in total.

Then, the female president, who had settled the matter, was in a good mood and looked at Lu Yao and said:

"Shall we go eat? I'm hungry."

Just when Lu Yao thought she was going to a high-end restaurant, she asked someone in the mall and took him directly to the B1 floor.

A street full of snacks.

It's no wonder that the female president, wearing a set of NIKE sportswear, fits in perfectly here. After walking around, she chose a stall selling maocai and ordered a slightly spicy one.

However, Sichuan cuisine is slightly spicy and contains a lot of red oil.

When Lu Yao brought over two servings of maocai that exuded the aroma of fried oil, the female president swallowed unconsciously.

Then, after swallowing the first piece of blood sausage, Lu Yao found that sweat had begun to appear on the tip of her nose.

"Mr. Xu, here you go."

He handed over the tissue.

"Thank you."

Xu Ruochu thanked him politely, and then said:

"I don't really like spicy food...but when I was a kid my grandma..."

Suddenly, she paused.

Then it returned to normal:
"My grandma said that spicy food can make you sweat and kill bacteria...so..."

Lu Yao nodded.

Regardless of the authenticity of the sterilization effect of peppers, Lu Yao knew very well that what she needed now was psychological comfort.

So he said:

"Go back later. The sun is shining brightly today. You can dry the clothes in the sun and then put them in the closet."

"Um...thank you."

Suddenly, Xu Ruochu thanked him again.

Looking at Lu Yao with a very sincere expression:

"Without you, I might... never realize this. Thank you..."

For some reason, Lu Yao's expression froze.

After staring at the female president for a while, he shook his head:

"This is what I should do, Mr. Xu."

Then he lowered his head and ate.

He finally saw the female president's fierce expression.

Unlike Hu Li, her increasingly soft facial features are her real attraction.

You know what, it’s quite dazzling.

At this time, Xu Ruochu, who was still hissing, asked:
"How's your sister's study abroad going?"

"She's not going."

"...Hmm? Not going?"

"Yes. When I got home last night, she told me she couldn't go."

"Isn't this...a change a bit too fast?"

"My sister has always been quite sensible."

Lu Yao shrugged, eating the somewhat bland maocai in front of him and said:

"She actually understands the family situation. Although my dad has agreed to her studying abroad... it seems that my mom has communicated with her a lot. So the final work still has to be done by my dad."

"From what you said, you want your sister to study abroad?"

"Yeah. Because I know her, I can see the difference between what she really wants and her attitude of not caring whether she wants it or not. This time, she really wants to go out. And from childhood to adulthood, my sister is actually...more sensible than me. She is the eldest sister, so she has to be humble to me since she was a child. In fact, she has suffered a lot of grievances..."

Xu Ruochu nodded as he spoke.

Seems to feel the same way.

But he said nothing, just listened.

"My sister told me that...she won't go. Firstly, if she goes abroad and I go to school in another province, my mother will be sad because she can't bear to leave us both. Secondly, she knows the situation at home and she doesn't want my father to suffer too much. So..."

"But you want her out."

"Yes... As a younger brother, I also want to give her the best, just like she would leave the best things for me... So I plan to do my parents' work after I go back today."

"..."

Xu Ruochu said nothing and nodded.

Continue eating, and then hiss.

Seeing this, Lu Yao got up and went straight to buy some iced soy milk.

This time, he didn’t swipe the card... Are you kidding me? Why would I need to swipe a card just to get a snack?
He took out his wallet, and with a bit of nostalgia for WeChat payment, he paid the money and took two bottles of soy milk from the freezer.

"Boss Xu, this is a good way to relieve the spiciness."

In fact, the female CEO who had been staring at him since he left the table nodded:
"OK, thanks."

Lu Yao was also accustomed to her speech and behavior at any time and in any occasion, which were very consistent with the general language. He pinched the bent part of the straw, inserted it into the bottle mouth, and pushed it in front of the other party.

With the help of soy milk, she seemed to feel better. She forced herself to finish the maocai... to the point where she tried not to eat the food that was submerged in the red oil. She also ate half a bowl of rice and then put down her chopsticks.

Seeing this, Lu Yao stopped eating even though he was not full.

"Boss Xu, shall we go back? We still have to wait for the delivery of the washing machine."

"are you full?"

"Ah."

"…Don't worry, it's better not to waste food." "…"

Xu Ruochu said this after looking at him for a few seconds.

As a result, he immediately realized something was wrong from the other person's eyes, and looked down at the rice in front of him...

At this time, Lu Yao said:
"I can't eat anymore, shall we go?"

"..."

The female president nodded obediently.

No more struggling.

……

I returned all the way to Fortune Garden and went upstairs. The washing machine had finished drying and was making a beeping sound.

Lu Yao thought for a moment, put the two maocai takeaway boxes on the dining table, and took out disposable gloves from the drawer:
"Boss Xu, if you don't mind, I can help you sort it out? Hang it up?"

“Ah? …No, no, no, no, I can fold it. Someone will be here soon, and it won’t be appropriate to hang it up.”

As she spoke, she saw the disposable gloves on Lu Yao's hands and quickly added:

"I don't think you're dirty, it's just... you're a man, so it's not easy for you to do this kind of thing."

Lu Yao thought to himself that you are really considerate.

So he nodded:
"Then let me help you sort out the clothes in your closet."

"Yeah! I have to wash them all..."

"it is good."

Lu Yao agreed and was about to take off his gloves, but Xu Ruochu said again:
"Put on the gloves... they're dirty."

For a moment, Lu Yao didn't realize whether she was talking about her hands or the clothes...

But he didn't hesitate and walked into the cloakroom which seemed too big no matter how he looked at it, wearing gloves.

"Are these all new?"

"Well, none of them have been worn."

"..."

Lu Yao looked at the dazzling array of clothes and couldn't help asking:
"Did you buy these yourself, Mr. Xu?"

"No."

Xu Ruochu shook his head:
"I have a dedicated fashion consultant who will buy clothes that suit me according to the season. I change clothes every season."

"..."

Lu Yao's mouth twitched, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

"Then you don't wash these clothes when you are at home?"

"I don't know very well..."

The female president looked at the "dirty clothes" and shook her head again:

"I have a housekeeper at home, so I haven't worried about these things. It's just that now... I'm at the stage of leaving home... Hu Li should have told you about it, right? The rule in my family is that when you reach a certain age, you should leave home and exercise. Plus, I've made some choices myself, so now I want to start running a home of my own."

Having said this, she suddenly looked at Lu Yao, her brows softening:
"Thank you so much, Lu Yao. If it weren't for you, my life would still be terrible..."

"This is what I should do."

Lu Yao finished speaking again and also agreed with what the female president said.

No matter what kind of life she lived before, at least from now on, she is becoming more and more "independent".

It’s just that independence varies from person to person.

But the behavior is unified, and the unity is called: growth.

Pointing to the old flower suitcase in the corner, Lu Yao asked:

"Shall I pack these clothes into the box?"

"Okay. If there aren't enough boxes, I'll ask the property management to get them."

"Ok."

So Lu Yao started to get busy.

Xu Ruochu took a pile of underwear and started folding them next to him.

Lu Yao would occasionally see it out of the corner of his eye... After all, the two of them had reached this "level", so there was no embarrassment at all.

To be honest, the female president’s fashion sense is… quite normal.

Her underwear is mainly black, white and gray. There are very few sexy decorations. White and gray are mostly sports styles, while black is the kind that can be matched with normal wear.

Not seductive, not charming, but absolutely decent.

Of course, this is also nonsense.

No one can tell whether your underwear is appropriate or not.

While Lu Yao was packing two suitcases, a sound like a telephone ringing came from the bathroom.

After hearing this, Xu Ruochu stood up and walked into the bathroom:
"Hey."

"...Yes, I asked them to do it. Just ask them to send it over directly."

"it is good."

Soon, she returned:

"Lu Yao, the delivery person for the washing machine is here. Just in time, let the property people load these two boxes into the car first."

"Ok."

Lu Yao nodded, stuffed the last few pieces of clothes into the suitcase, and pushed it out.

As soon as I reached the door, the doorbell rang.

He opened the door.

Two property security guards, two masters and the big box of Casarte were right at the door.

"Hello, we are..."

"Please come in."

Before they finished speaking, Lu Yao gave up his seat.

But he immediately realized something and said:

"Hold on."

He bent down and took out shoe covers from the drawer at the entrance and handed them to the four people.

The security guard probably thought he was the male owner and was very respectful.

"Okay, sorry to bother you."

"It's okay, please come in."

Xu Ruochu, who was standing at the bedroom door, also saw this scene.

Without saying anything, he walked back into the bedroom with a gentle look on his face.

The next step was unpacking and installation. The installer did it very quickly and it was completed in less than an hour.

"Lu Yao, get a few bottles of water for the master... uh..."

When she came out of the bedroom, she saw Lu Yao getting water for several masters and security guards. She stopped talking and asked:

“Is it ready to use?”

"Yes, ma'am, let it wash itself before use, add some laundry detergent and disinfect it..."

"Yeah, okay..."

Xu Ruochu began to communicate with them, while Lu Yao told the security guard about the box.

Soon, the masters and the two property people left.

The property management went to get the cart.

Xu Ruochu started poking the washing machine as if she had discovered a new toy, while Lu Yao went back into the house to help her sort out the mountain of clothes.

You know what... although cleaning the house sounds simple, in reality, it took me until almost 5 o'clock in the evening just to empty the entire closet and load the clothes into the car.

When Lu Yao put the last garbage bag on the X6, there was no space left in the entire X6, including the passenger seat.

Fortunately, the rearview mirror was not blocked.

"Boss Xu, I'll send the clothes over, and then ask her to work overtime to wash a set for you to wear tomorrow, and I'll bring it to you tomorrow morning?"

"it is good."

Xu Ruochu nodded and suddenly said:

"How about... go after dinner?"

"No, dry cleaning also takes time. I'll hurry up and do this so as not to delay your work."

Hearing Lu Yao's words, the female president looked at him twice and nodded:
"it is good……"
