Chapter 572 Surprise
Li Man: "Thank you."
Shen Lu: "You're welcome."
Shen Lu didn't dig into it, put away his phone and went back to work.
-
The next day, as the sun set, a United Airlines Boeing large passenger plane with a blue tail landed smoothly at JFK International Airport.
Li Man wore a large checkered milk tea shirt, light blue jeans, and a pair of mid-heeled suede pickup short boots. She walked out of the airport with her suitcase and took a taxi to the Upper East Side of Manhattan.
Uptown East is a concentration camp for the rich.
The hotel where Shen Muting stayed was right there.
This was Li Man's first time going abroad. She was very uneasy along the way, fearing that something would go wrong. Fortunately, the journey went smoothly.
Li Man rushed to the hotel to surprise Shen Muting, but found that they were not in the hotel.
Li Man sent a message to Shen Lu: "Are you in the hotel now?"
She didn't mention her coming to New York.
Shen Lu: "I'm not in the hotel. There's a banquet. What's wrong, Madam?"
Li Man knew that Shen Muting was busy and was afraid of disturbing their business, "It's okay, you can just be busy."
After sending the message, Li Man took his suitcase and went to the lobby on the first floor of the hotel, playing with his phone while waiting for Shen Muting.
Li is very beautiful.
She has long legs and slender waist. She is a standard oriental classical beauty. Her delicate facial features carry a faint charm. Those fox eyes, with the ends of the eyes slightly raised, seem to be seducing people. Her movements are charming and charming. Can't look away.
Sitting in the hotel lobby, it feels like you have your own halo.
Some people even came up to say hello to her and wanted to get to know her.
Li Man responded politely, saying that she was waiting for her husband. When the men who had thoughts about her heard this, they remained gentlemen and left wisely.
Li Man put her suitcase next to her. Because she didn't have a good rest on the plane, she thought of lying down on the table to take a rest. Maybe she was tired and sleepy from the long flight, so she fell asleep without realizing it.
When she woke up, it was already late at night, and the hotel lobby was far quieter than in the evening.
Li Man rubbed his eyes and looked at the time.
It's almost eleven o'clock.
I wonder if Shen Muting is back.
Li Man hurriedly took out his cell phone, fearing to disturb Shen Muting, so he sent another message to Shen Lu, "Assistant Shen, has Shen Muting returned to the hotel?"
Shen Lu: "Well, Mr. Shen returned to the hotel after attending the banquet. Don't worry, Mr. Shen didn't drink much or smoke."
Li Man: "?"
Li Man only sent a question mark.
Shen Lu's eyebrows were slightly furrowed.
What does it mean to post a question mark?
Just when Shen Lu was about to ask Li Man what he meant, Shen Muting looked over at him.
Shen Lu was so frightened that he immediately put away his phone and continued to work.
Li Man carried his luggage, took the elevator upstairs, went straight to the top floor, and rang the doorbell according to the address given by Shen Lu.
As soon as the door opened, Li Man subconsciously thought it was Shen Muting, and opened his arms to give him a big hug, "Surprise~"
When Shen Lu saw Li Man open his arms and was about to hug him, even though he was a top special assistant, his face changed with fright and he took two steps back, "Young Madam? Why are you here?"
In the room, the man who was doing his work immediately put down the documents in his hands and strode over.
Seeing Li Man standing at the entrance with her arms spread out and frozen on the spot, he took three steps and two steps at a time, stepped forward and hugged her, "Why are you here?"
Shen Lu came to his senses and quickly turned around to go to his colleagues. Looking at his back, he seemed to be running away.
He was shocked and patted his chest, secretly sighing that it was fortunate that he had reacted in time just now, otherwise, if the person the young lady was hugging was him, he would probably not be able to leave this room alive.
I never dreamed that the president's special assistant would become such a high-risk profession.
Shen Muting hugged her and tightened his arms around her, "When did you arrive?"
Li Man looked up at him, "It's already evening and you're not in the hotel."
Shen Muting was surprised and distressed, "Why didn't you call me?"
"I'm afraid of disturbing your work. You have to go back to the hotel anyway, so I just thought of waiting for you in the lobby, but I fell asleep." Li Man smiled sheepishly, "This is my first time going abroad. I was very nervous on the way, afraid of making mistakes, but fortunately everything went smoothly."
Shen Muting kissed her on the forehead and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Li Man frowned and shook his head, "It's not hard, I'm very happy."
Considering that the airplane food was very unpalatable and she arrived in the evening, Shen Muting immediately asked, "Have you had dinner?"
"Not yet. Have you eaten? I can just eat whatever I want. I'm not very hungry. I'm not picky about food. I ate a lot on the plane."
Shen Muting took her into the room and first introduced Li Man to the foreign colleagues working with her in English, "This is my wife,"
"Nice to meet you, Mrs. Shen."
Li Man also greeted them in fluent English.
Then, Shen Muting said: "Let's finish our work here today. Let's all go back and rest first. Let's take a day off tomorrow and continue the day after tomorrow."
"Wow, Mrs. Shen, thank you very much. You sa.ved me."
Wow, Mrs. Shen, thank you very much, you saved me.
Shen Muting smiled and said, "Okay, you guys should go back and rest early."
Everyone else had left, but Shen Lu was still there, "Mr. Shen, do you need me to contact the restaurant?"
Li Man said hurriedly: "A lot of restaurants should be closed at this time. Forget it, Shen Teshu, you should go and rest too."
Shen Lu said respectfully, "There is a family-style French restaurant next to Times Square. Although the quality is not as good as a Michelin-starred restaurant, the environment and taste are not bad. This place is also open. I will send you there."
"Let's go." Shen Muting hugged Li Man and walked out.
Li Man joked: "It's not easy to be your assistant."
Shen Muting smiled and said, "Well, the salary is also the highest in the industry."
"As expected of a capitalist." Li Man sympathized with Shen Lu for a second.
Shen Muting snorted coldly, "Mrs. Shen, you and I are capitalists, but don't forget that you are also the boss's wife of Boyuan. How could I have a wife with elbows turned out like you?"
Li Man shrugged, "That must be the blessing you gained in your previous life."
Shen Muting laughed out loud.
Shen Lu drove them to a restaurant that was still open next to Times Square.
Before entering the restaurant, Shen Muting took the car keys and told Shen Lu, "You can go back and rest. I will drive back later."
Shen Lu nodded, "Yes, Mr. Shen."
Shen Muting took Li Man into the restaurant.
There are still many people dining at this point.
New York is simply a city that never sleeps.
Shen Muting didn't eat much for dinner. He and Li Man each ordered a Tuna Tartare, and then ordered a few other signature dishes. Because he had to drive, he didn't order red wine.
Shen Muting closed the menu and saw Li Man looking at the entire wine cabinet not far away, thinking of her impressive drinking capacity. But since she was curious and it was her first time abroad, she asked, "Do you want to drink it?" One drink, the mixology here looks good.”
