Hearing Zhou Mengmeng's words, Lu Hao chuckled and shook his head slightly, saying with his back to her, "You're really bullying an honest person."

After saying that, Lu Hao walked into the bathroom without looking back.

He could sense that Zhou Mengmeng had some feelings for him, otherwise she wouldn't have said such a thing.

Breakup sex? Interesting.

But this is too cruel to Zhou Mengmeng's blind date tomorrow; honest people are still people.

After a quick wash, Lu Hao came out of the bathroom to find the living room lights already off.

He didn't pay much attention to it, went to the balcony and threw his dirty clothes into the washing machine. Then he picked up a clothes fork and found his clothes on the clothesline covered with colorful clothes.

Lu Hao didn't understand why girls could have so many clothes. The small balcony was completely occupied by Zhou Mengmeng and her other roommate.

Unlike him, he only had two sets of clothes to change into, plus a spare set.

Holding the clothes in his hand, Lu Hao glanced out the window. Lightning was still flashing across the night sky in the distance, but the rain had not yet started to fall.

They say there's calm before the storm, but is Mother Nature now making empty promises? All thunder and no rain, just creating a great atmosphere.

Lu Hao closed the windows tightly to prepare for a possible thunderstorm in the middle of the night.

Judging from this situation, a thunderstorm is inevitable; it's just a matter of time.

Just like his own messed-up life, it seemed to be disrupted by Su Yu's return.

She was like a distant lightning bolt, piercing his own darkness and tearing away the fig leaf of his supposed survival...

……

……

Because he went to bed early, Lu Hao woke up very early.

Mei Mei stretched, and the "drip-drip" sound in her ear made her subconsciously look out the window.

Large raindrops pounded against the window, and water meandered down the glass.

A perfect rainy day, perfect for taking a nap.

Lu Hao lay back down, only to feel himself dozing off for a short while before the elegant ringtone woke him up once again.

He fumbled for his phone, answered the call without checking the contact name, and Lin Ran's roar came through the receiver.

"Lu Hao, it's eleven o'clock and you're still not at the company? That bastard is here to inspect today. I'm giving you half an hour to get to the company, or I can't protect you."

Lin Ran's words instantly brought Lu Hao to his senses. He hadn't expected that this old bastard would actually come to inspect the place.

Wang Ba, whose real name is Wang Ba, is the manager of the planning department and the boss of Lu Hao's boss. He is upright, incorruptible, extremely strict, and intolerant of any wrongdoing.

If he finds out that he skipped work this morning, he'll receive his resignation letter from HR this afternoon, getting a double bonus.

Lu Hao clearly understood the difference between having a full meal at one meal and having a full meal every day.

After hanging up the phone, he didn't even wash his face or brush his teeth. He put on a white shirt and suit, grabbed his tie and briefcase, and rushed out of the room.

Zhou Mengmeng was admiring herself in the full-length mirror in the living room when she saw Lu Hao rushing out. She quickly called out, "Lu Hao, how do I look dressed?"

"Good, very good, excellent, getting better and better."

Lu Hao didn't even glance at it, threw down a sentence, and stormed out the door.

It takes more than forty minutes by bus from his home to his company, which is already too late. Taking a taxi is convenient, taking less than fifteen minutes, but it's too expensive, almost twenty yuan.

There's an old saying that goes, "Save where you should, spend where you should; bars are my home every night."

He can spend a thousand yuan on alcohol in one night, but he can't bear to spend twenty yuan on a taxi.

Lu Hao wisely hailed a shared electric scooter, overtaking three delivery drivers along the way, displaying the air of a delivery king.

Twenty minutes later, Lu Hao walked into the company, went to the restroom without even clocking in, put on a tie in front of the mirror, washed his face, and also dried his hair to make himself look more presentable.

After admiring himself for a while, Lu Hao, full of energy, knocked on Lin Ran's office door.

Lin Ran, who was sitting on the sofa, looked up and waved to Lu Hao through the glass.

Lu Hao walked in and casually sat opposite Lin Ran, as if it were his own home, and said with a smile, "Beautiful Lin, when is Wang Ba coming?"

Lin Ran glanced at the time and said, "Twenty minutes left. Have you looked at yesterday's materials? Are you confident?"

"Are you questioning me?" Lu Hao raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

Lin Ran waved his hand, signaling Lu Hao to leave, "Leave it to me tomorrow."

As Lu Hao stood up, he picked up an apple from the coffee table. "I haven't had breakfast, I'm a little hungry."

Lin Ran looked down, took out a carton of milk from under the coffee table, and called out to Lu Hao, who was about to walk to the door, "Here you go."

Lu Hao turned around and saw Lin Ran toss something to him. He caught it instinctively and found it was a carton of milk. He smiled, raised an eyebrow at Lin Ran, and said, "Thanks, let's sleep together sometime."

Ignoring Lin Ran's angry curses behind him, Lu Hao returned to his workstation, intending to complete his task.

Wedding planning was something he was trying for the first time. However, he had a rough idea in mind.

It was the scene he had imagined when he married Su Yu—walking on a starry carpet, with countless ice-blue roses falling from the sky, covering the whole world in a dreamy blue hue.

It's just a pity that it's impossible for him and Su Yu to be together anymore.

Lu Hao decided to write down the idea in his mind, believing that the client would be satisfied.

Just as Lu Hao was engrossed in his work, a commotion arose outside in the corridor. He looked up and saw Wang Ba, with a beer belly, patrolling the area, with Lin Ran and several other people following behind him.

Lu Hao knew them, but they weren't very close; they were from the next group.

Wang Ba's inspection lasted only a few minutes before he left with a group of people, seemingly heading to a meeting.

At this moment, Li Xu suddenly appeared out of nowhere, put his head close to Lu Hao's side, and lowered his voice.

"Brother Lu, I just heard some news."

"What?" Lu Hao asked casually.

"Do me a favor, and I'll tell you."

"I'm busy." Lu Hao refused without hesitation.

"No way, Brother Lu, I had a hard time finding out this news. It could very well lead to a complete reshuffling of our planning department."

Lu Hao stopped what he was doing, turned to look at Li Xu in surprise, and asked, "You're letting me know about something like this?"

"Ahem..." Li Xu coughed a few times. "Don't worry about that. Anyway, it's very reliable. As long as you agree to do me a favor, I'll tell you right away."

"What are you busy with first?"

Li Xu mysteriously took out his phone, opened Green Bubble, and opened a chat page with a friend. The page only showed his "Hello" and the other party's reply with a smiley face emoji.

"Brother Lu, this is the beautiful girl I added at the bar last night. I really like her, but I don't know how to start a conversation. Can you teach me?"

Lu Hao frowned, looked at Li Xu's face, which was neither handsome nor ugly, and smiled.

"Watch closely, I'll only teach you once."

After saying that, Lu Hao took Li Xu's phone, copied the other party's Green Bubble number, and then added the other party using his own Green Bubble number.

Then Lu Hao took Li Xu's phone, took a picture for him, and sent it to him, followed by the message "Want to hook up?"
