161 A bossy announcemen (2/2)
Ignoring the din, he took to the microphone. Calmly, he looked directly at Sun Yu, standing just below the stage, then smiling softly he said: ”Sun Yu, as long as you nod and agree, I will take you away immediately!”
He wasn't concerned about anyone else's opinion, he was only interested in what Sun Yu had to say. Even if the whole world had objected, he would still take her away from all this. She only needed to give him the nod.
”Yuyu, quickly agree to my brother!” Xiao Ruyi shouted eagerly.
Zhang Dashan, Feng Wuhen, and Tang Ren all looked anxiously at Sun Yu. They anticipated that she would nod and agree with Xiao Luo very soon.
Sun Yu felt like she were the happiest girl in the world. When she had first met Xiao Luo, he was a man of few words, the strong silent type. His handsome features had left an indelible impression in her heart. Later, when the two of them were eating roasted sweet potatoes and talking about their childhood, she realized that she had unconsciously fallen in love with this man. Every time she thought about moments she had shared with him, she would smile to herself, and at times, laugh dreamily
She often dreamed of him, snuggling up in his arms, and even holding his hand as they entered a wedding hall together.
Right here, and right now, this man was reaching out to her and asking her to be his woman.
It was as though she were drowning in a honey pot full of nectar. Beautiful and sweet.
”I ag…”
Sun Yu nodded in excitement, but before she could even begin to speak, a harsh voice rumbled next to her.
”Little Sun, have you thought about it clearly? Do you think you can rely on this man for the rest of your life?” The statement was a blatant warning, demanding she exercises caution on her part.
Sun Yu was taken aback. Turning around, she was met by a stern face. It was Director He Ruanliang.
”Director He, I…”
Sun Yu became hesitant. He Ruanliang's words seemed to have stirred her from her little fantasy. Her face now showed signs of doubt and confusion.
Just then, Jiang Yongchen stepped onto the stage. Without saying a word, he walked up to Fu Guisheng, grabbed his microphone, smiling, and said, ”Let's not bash anyone indiscriminately. Love is a fair game for all. Does it mean that just because Dr. Fu had confessed to Sun Yu, then others are not allowed to do so? This is being unreasonable. It should depend on the girl who is being wooed and how she decides on whom she is willing to follow. We have no authority to interfere with this. It's her right and freedom to choose…”
He walked up next to Xiao Luo. ”You people still don't know who he is, right? Allow me to make a grand introduction. He is none other than the current boss of Luo's Workshop. And the reason why he is here today is that I invited him. It has nothing to do with some of you have said about eating and drinking for free!”
What?
He… he is the boss of Luo's Workshop?
Jiang Yongchun's remarks had the effect of a bomb blowing up right there in the ballroom. Jaws dropped as they stared in disbelief at the tall, lithe figure of Xiao Luo on stage.
If anyone were to put a name to the most famous company in Jiangcheng, it would undoubtedly be Luo's Workshop. Despite having been in the shadow of Wei Lei since its incorporation, Luo's Workshop had suddenly risen and crushed its main competitor, all within a short time. It was rumored that the boss of Wei Lei, Fang Changlei, was now under investigation for unfair business conduct. On top of that, he was also being charged for other shady business dealings. Several hotels that were under his name were caught conducting indecent business. He was now behind bars and was awaiting trial. He probably could not avoid spending a few years in jail.
News of Fang Changlei's fall from grace made more people curious about who, and what sort of person the boss of Luo's Workshop was. How could he bring Luo's Workshop back to life and immediately outperform a competitor as strong as Wei Lei?
This very man was now present here, standing on stage!
”Such a young, courageous person, with the ability to play such beautiful music, this…”
Everyone was lost for words. They stood rooted to the floor. In their minds, they pictured Xiao Luo as a towering, immovable mountain that could not be passed.
The few grumpy old male doctors who voiced their dissent earlier now became embarrassed and quickly sat down.
Free food and drinks? Tramp? Loser?
Their faces turned red instantly upon being told the name of that enigmatic young man on stage - Xiao Luo!
