Chapter 328 - 328: Unspoken Rules
Huo Xunzhou looked at Chu Gushen expressionlessly.
“You know about this matter too?”
“When I went to Miss Lin’s house yesterday to discuss some matters, I heard her mention that she was going to work elsewhere in the next few days.”
Chu Gushen was paying attention to Huo Xunzhou’s expression as he spoke.
When he noticed that Huo Xunzhou grimaced gradually, he felt relieved.
“Isn’t she your girlfriend?” Chu Gushen added fuel to the fire. “Why didn’t she tell you about it?”
“Do you know the fun between lovers?” Huo Xunzhou laughed in anger.
“I really don’t understand…” Chu Gushen nodded seriously.
They were clearly in conflict, but he had to say it was fun. He really did not understand this kind of fun.
Li MO was a little afraid that the two of them would start fighting, so he quickly interrupted Chu Gushen, “Lawyer Chu, let’s eat something.”
Li MO frantically picked up food for Chu Gushen and poured him wine. “Drink some wine. ”
Chu Gushen knew that he should stop and did not continue to provoke Huo Xunzhou.
On the way home, Li MO observed Huo Xunzhou’s expression through the rearview mirror from time to time.
The rear window was half-open and Huo Xunzhou kept turning his head to look at the streetscape outside. Li MO could not tell what Huo Xunzhou was thinking, but he could feel that he did not seem angry.
Li MO mustered the courage and asked, “Big Brother, aren’t you angry?”
“What do you think?” Huo Xunzhou knew that Li MO was talking about Lin Shanchu sneaking off by airplane.
How could he not get angry?
However, what could he do if he got angry?
It was true that he had pushed her a little too hard. It was not a bad idea for
him to give her some leeway.
However, from another perspective, his efforts were not in vain.
She ran away because she had read his mind.
An indescribable sense of relief rose in Li Mot s heart.
Ever since Huo Xunzhou fell in love, he looked calm even when he was angry.
It was good to be in love.
It was good to have a sister-in-law.
Li MO felt happy for a brief moment before he thought of serious matters.
“A shareholder meeting will be held at Lu Corporation tomorrow. Sister-in-law has gone to Capital City, so who is going to attend the shareholder meeting?” Huo Xunzhou had secretly acquired the shares of Lu Corporation, but on the surface, he had nothing to do with the company. Naturally, he could not go to the shareholder meeting at Lu Corporation.
“She has gone to Capital City, but her lawyer is still in Xu City, isn’t he?” Huo Xunzhou smiled slowly.
“Yes.”
Li MO secretly prayed for Chu Gushen.
It was already late at night when Lin Shanchu and the others left the airport with their luggage.
The brand owner sent a car over to pick them up.
The driver was a young man in a suit and leather shoes and he drove a luxury car.
Lin Shanchu accepted an event for a jewelry brand this time.
The other party had agreed that as long as she was willing to participate in the event, the remuneration and subsequent cooperation would not be a problem.
“My name is Yu Cheng.”
The driver introduced himself politely and opened the car door for Lin Shanchu respectfully. “Miss Lin, please get in the car.”
“Thank you.” Before Lin Shanchu got into the car, she glanced at Yu Cheng’s suit.
Yu Cheng looked young, but he looked knowledgeable and experienced. No matter what Qi Cheng and the others said along the way, he could chat with them.
After Yu Cheng drove them to the hotel to settle down, a waiter brought them supper.
“Your flight was at 8:00 a.m., so I guess you didn’t have dinner in time,” Yu Cheng explained, “I took it upon myself to order supper for you guys in advance.”
“Sorry to trouble you.” Qi Cheng, who used to be a top manager, felt that Yu Cheng was too thoughtful.
“That’s what I should do.”
After Yu Cheng finished speaking, he smiled and looked at Lin Shanchu and asked, “Miss Lin, are you free afternoon or evening tomorrow?”
Lin Shanchu looked up at him with a questioning expression.
Yu Cheng continued, “Well, our boss wants to organize a dinner party to welcome you. ”
The boss personally organized a dinner party to welcome her?
No matter how she heard him, she felt there was some implicit meaning behind those words.
Qi Cheng and He Xiang looked at each other and saw vigilance in each other’s eyes.
Just as Qi Cheng was about to speak, Lin Shanchu interrupted him. “I’m fine with anything according to your boss’s schedule and arrangement.”
“Alright, I’ll take my leave. See you tomorrow.”
As soon as Yu Cheng left, He Xiang quickly closed the door.
“Sister Lin, why is this brand owner so attentive? Could it be that their boss… covets your beauty and tries to play by unspoken rules?”
The more He Xiang thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible. “That must be the case. Some brand owners think that they’re amazing just because they have plenty of money. They think that all women want their filthy money.”
“Maybe it’s because the brand owner admires my ability?” Lin Shanchu replied as she smiled lazily.
“The ability to cause trouble?” Qi Cheng asked faintly.
Lin Shanchu was taken aback and said seriously, “Yu Cheng is wearing a custom-made suit. Judging from the cut of the fabric, that suit is at least worth tens of thousands of yuan.”
“Are all the drivers in Capital City so rich?” He Xiang asked in surprise.
Her monthly salary was only enough for Yu Cheng to buy a suit!
Qi Cheng could not help but laugh. “Is there a possibility that… Yu Cheng’s main job is not a driver?”
He Xiang suddenly realized it and asked, “Then what does he work as?”
Lin Shanchu tilted her head and thought for a while before she said, “He is probably a high-level special assistant like Zhou Yan.”
“The brand owner actually dispatched their special assistant to pick us up?” He
Xiang looked terrified as she said, “This boss must have taken a fancy to Sister Lin’s beauty.”
“Show me the information on the brand owner again.” Lin Shanchu declined to comment on it.
He Xiang sent the softcopy information to Lin Shanchu’s phone.
Lin Shanchu read the information as she ate supper.
This jewelry brand was new and it had only been established for about ten years but it was deeply loved by young people because of its unique design. It was far ahead of other jewelry brands with the same positioning and it had been the best-selling brand for five consecutive years.
Lin Shanchu turned to Qi Cheng and asked, “Is this all the information?
Qi Cheng replied, “It has everything about the brand’s concept and history. What else do you need?”
Lin Shanchu said, “The boss’s information.”
“Isn’t the brand manager’s name written here?” Qi Cheng pointed at the name in the document and showed her.
Qi Cheng and Lin Shanchu looked at each other for a moment before he understood her. “Are you talking about the patron who provided the money behind the scenes? I don’t know.”
Lin Shanchu put her phone aside and said, “It’s alright. We’ll know who it is tomorrow.”
Lin Shanchu got up at around 10:00 a.m. the next day because she slept late last night.
The brand owner had booked a large suite for them. After Lin Shanchu washed up and changed her clothes, she saw Qi Cheng sitting on the sofa.
Qi Cheng heard the commotion and looked up at Lin Shanchu. Then, he quickly looked down at the phone screen and continued to send messages.
“Yu Cheng called me just now and said that his boss wants to meet you at the revolving restaurant of Boya Hotel for lunch.”
“Such a grand arrangement?”
Although Lin Shanchu came to Capital City for the first time, she had heard of the rumor that if one ate at Boya Hotel for three days, they would go bankrupt
for three generations..
