STEP AWAY! THE ANTAGONIST WANTS TO ESCAPE
18.

“What is your relationship with Lu Ming?” Ming Weyan asked. Lately the company has been getting worse. Actually with the foundation owned by the Ming Group which has been developing business in Shanghai for more than two hundred years. Of course, there have been many passes up and down and still be able to stand up to now, the investors may not be backing out just like that. But the situation is now different when their competitors begin to combine forces and attack from all sides to subvert and seize some big projects from their hands. If the situation continues bankruptcy cannot be avoided.

But last night when he called Ming Yue to scold her for not coming home until midnight, it was Lu Ming who answered her call.

Like seeing a light at the end of the tunnel, Ming Weyan had to forge iron while it was still hot. If he managed to persuade Lu Ming to give a single project to the Ming Group they would definitely be able to bounce back.

Ming Yue knew the path of mind Ming Weyan who wanted to use as a business tool replied soberly. “Regularly.”

But Ming Yue instantly changed her mind. This is his chance to make money. When money comes, it should not be wasted. “Is there anything you need help from me?” Although for the sake of his advantage Ming Yue still will not break down himself.

Ming Weyan actually disliked Ming Yue's arrogant style and wanted to discipline her. But since he desperately needed help from her, he would give her a pass for now. “Haha, not something random. It's just that dad would be very happy if he could join the Tian Lan.” project Ming Weyan said with contrived humor.

Poems! Ming Yue could clearly see the greed from Ming Weyan's eyes. Tian Lan's project he's a prick? It was thought Ming Yue did not know it was one of the major men that the Lu group had worked on this year. Tian Lan is a government project won by the Lu group, the project includes the construction of toll roads, infrastructure and the construction of three airports spread across one-third of mainland China. Ordinary people also know how much money from the project. At least if you want to be a thoughtful leech first dong!

With the abilities possessed by the Ming Group it was clear that they did not meet the standards to join the project. Ming Yue was unwilling to make Lu Ming lose.

“If the proposal is good maybe Lu Ming will consider it.” Ming Yue was forced to give false hope. This Ming Weyan was extremely hopeless, without having to contact even Lu Ming, Ming Yue knew it was impossible.

“Actually the origin of the proposal is good.” Ming Weyan nodded. The origin of Ming Yue who brought him before Lu Ming was likely to agree with him was greater. “Daddy has prepared the proposal, tomorrow you give it to Lu Ming.” He continued.

“You give it yourself. I'm not going out.” Ming Yue refused. First because he knew that his chance of getting a unang was already forfeited. Second, his intuition told him that big and bad things would happen to him if he met Lu Ming again.

“Can't be so Ming Yue. Tomorrow you will go to Lu Ming's office and give his proposal directly.” Ming Weyan gave the final decision and did not accept rejection.

Into the next day, as Ming Weyan promised.

At nine in the morning Ming Yue was lowered in front of the entrance of the Lu Group building.

Ming Yue was forced into the building, but she did not directly go up to Lu Ming's office. Instead of approaching the receptionist and leave the proposal to the receptionist on duty.

Right now he really did not want to meet Lu Ming.

But what if the sky wills, ordinary humans cannot resist. When he turned around wanting to leave, the person he wanted to avoid the most was already standing right behind him.

“How many times have I told you not to bully me!” Ming Yue snorted and stepped back to create some distance between them.

Lu Ming nodded to the receptionist to give the map that Ming Yue had left to him.

“Not to be read, Ming Weyan wrote garbage in it.” Ming Yue had already read the proposal. On the opening page alone had made him close it immediately. He wondered, with such an ability, how the Ming family had survived to this point must have been due to luck.

He opened it, read it at a glance and agreed with Ming Yue's opinion, the contents were trash. But his mouth said another “We can still discuss it.”

Ming Yue flicked her shoulders. “Serah.” That's none of his business. The important thing is that the job is done and he wants to go home soon.

Ming Yue had already turned around and wanted to step away.

“Later noon I will go to Paradise hotel for lunch meeting.” Lu Ming said.

Paradise hotels. The five-star hotel is famous for its three-star Michelin restaurants that only accept guests who have a membership card. Ming Yue had once eaten there with Grandfather Lu and he instantly fell in love with the taste of the oriental dishes they served. Unfortunately Ming Yue could not get a membership card and had not been able to come there yet.

Now the free opportunity came to him. But Ming Yue was conflicted, on one hand she was eager to join Lu Ming. Soon he would move to the mountain and would not have the chance to eat there. Ming Yue would definitely be very sorry later. But on the other hand he did not want to mess with the man any longer, he was already determined to break up with him.

Ming Yue hardened her heart and ignored the temptation. In the future he will make a lot of money and will recruit the chef of Paradise hotel to work for him.

“I heard there is a new menu. King Bunquet if not mistakenly named.” Lu Ming could see if Ming Yue was tempted. “Say they innovated it by adding a western flavor.” He continued.

The two hands that were on the sides of Ming Yue's body clenched. He tried hard not to stop and turn around. In his past life he had already tasted the dishes that Lu Ming mentioned, it felt so overwhelming and addictive. In this world, it would not be much different either. Ming Yue's saliva welled up in her mouth just by imagining it.

But he must not be tempted. If he were to indulge now, it would be difficult for him to escape all these luxuries when the time comes. His life on the mountain would definitely be even more difficult.

Ming Yue bit the side in her cheek. Just this one time. The last. Think of it as a farewell.

He put on a wide smile and turned to face Lu Ming. “If you want me to come. It would be rude to refuse. I can only come with forced.”

Lu Ming smiled. He already knew that Ming Yue was a slave in front of the food.

Cui Ying, the on-duty receptionist, was a big gossip at the company. He knew all the gossip that was circulating and most of it, he shared it. It didn't take a minute after Ming Yue followed Lu Ming into the elevator, even before the elevator door closed, the incident in the lobby had already spread to the employees through the chat group.
