C150 (1/2)
After doing a blood check, Xi Muyao drove Lu Qingli and Bob home.
Lu Qingli sat in the backseat with Bob in her arms, ”Take us back to Lu Family. Yesterday, at midnight, the Old Master brought Bob to the hospital. Since Bob is fine now, he should be allowed to see him before he worries. ”
Xi Muyao lifted his wrist to check the time. It was already five past nine. The meeting between him and Lattice Wood company was scheduled for 9 o'clock. Half an hour had already passed.
”What's the matter?” ”Why don't you just let us go at the intersection in front of us? I'll take a taxi back.”
Xi Muyao's new villa was close to his company, and was located in the opposite direction from the Lu Family Residence. It would take at least an hour and a half for Lu Qingli to return to the company to return there, let alone return to the villa to change clothes.
Xi Muyao looked at the road and replied: ”It's alright, I can send you guys back in time.”
Xi Muyao put on his Bluetooth earpiece and called Secretary Zhang, ”Have the Lattice Wood people arrived yet? Not yet? Okay, you help me push it up to eleven. The arrangements for the later parts of the competition have been pushed aside. ”
Lu Qingli never thought that he would have such a concentrated arrangement today. She had heard of Lattice Wood before in the company and knew of the long-term cooperative relationship between Lattice Wood and Western Europe. But since Xi Muyao had made the arrangements on the phone, she could not say anything.
Lu Qingli hugged the bo tightly, wiping away the saliva around his mouth and stretched out the thin blanket covering his body.
After sending Lu Qingli back to the Lu Family, Xi Muyao didn't even bother to enter the door. He saw the Nanny Liu push a baby carriage and bring it inside, then directly got into the car to start the engine.
Lu Qingli stood outside the carriage, bowing slightly and smiling faintly, ”Thank you for sending us back, be careful driving.”
Seeing Lu Qingli's bland smile, Xi Muyao's heart also calmed down. He replied with a smile and nodded, ”I'll come to pick you up in the afternoon.”
Xi Muyao slowly drove the carriage away. The carriage was so far away that Xi Muyao could still see Lu Qingli's frail figure when he looked back in the mirror.
Xi Muyao walked into the building with large strides. The front desk young miss quickly ran over, ”President Xi, the Lattice Wood people are waiting for you in the VIP reception room.”
Xi Muyao frowned as he looked at his watch. 10: 40, 20 minutes until the appointed time.
Xi Muyao quickened his pace, ”How long have you been here for?”
The receptionist trotted over and followed, ”She came at nine o'clock and has been waiting here all this time.”
”Didn't you inform the Secretary Zhang to change the time?”
The receptionist pushed open the door with the doorknob and replied in a small voice, ”I'm not sure.”
Xi Muyao nodded his head indifferently, his mouth curved into a small smile, and with a polite smile, he walked in, ”Sorry for the wait! ”It's temporary …”
Lin Luo crossed her legs and slowly put down the coffee cup in her hand. She stood up with a relaxed expression and said, ”President Xi!”
Xi Muyao was startled when he saw the relaxed ”Lin Luo”, and then looked towards the Secretary Zhang, ”Where are the people from the Lattice Wood?”
Lin Luo walked forward a few steps, extended her right hand, and smiled, ”President Xi, I am the general manager of Lattice Wood, Lin Luo. You really made us wait! ”
The Secretary Zhang nodded.
Xi Muyao calmly held out his hand, held Lin Luo's hand, and said in a deep voice: ”Boss Lin? ”Sorry, there are some temporary urgent matters that I need to take care of.”
Xi Muyao put one hand in his jacket's pocket and the other hand pointed at the sofa, ”Boss Lin, please sit. Can we have a chat alone? ”
Lin Luo raised her eyebrows, nodded her head, looked at the staff who came with her, and slowly said: ”Wait for me outside.”
The employee stood up, and nodded at Lin Luo and Xi Muyao. Secretary Zhang immediately brought him out, ”This way please!”
Xi Muyao stood in front of Lin Luo, looking down at him from above.
Lin Luo smiled, she picked up the coffee cup on the table and took a sip, ”President Xi, you have been staring at me, you can't have fallen for me, right?”
Xi Muyao was slightly shocked in his heart. The person he thought to be would never speak to him like this, showing off his self-confidence.
Such a mature and cold woman was a far cry from the gentle and obedient girl he knew. However, this was clearly the same face.
Xi Muyao loosened his tie and sat on the sofa in front of Lin Luo. His left leg knocked on his right leg, giving off a arrogant aura, as if he was looking down upon the world.
”Ha!” Lin Luo chuckled, she placed down the coffee cup and started stirring the spoon clockwise, ”Who is President Xi calling out to?”
Xi Muyao looked at Lin Luo indifferently, ”Lin Yeyan, who bailed you out?”
Lin Luo raised her eyebrows, ”President Xi, is this your way of chasing women? This kind of unconventional method, President Xi should just deal with those little girls who were not familiar with the affairs of the world! Let's get down to business! Have we been waiting for you for a long time? Is this the attitude of Western Europe towards cooperation? ”
Xi Muyao squinted his eyes. Lin Luo had always pretended not to understand what he was saying, but the Lin Luo in front of him was Lin Yeyan. But if it wasn't?
Xi Muyao nodded his head, and said indifferently: ”Sorry.”
