Chapter 50 - Familiar Person (1/2)
After the plane landed, Liang Sheng quickly gathered his bags. As he walked in into the arrival hall, a man sent by his father was already waiting for him. The two of them had a brief chat before they get into the car and headed to the Li's Mansion.
A butler welcomed Liang Sheng's arrival. He was led into the living room to wait as the servant go to notify Chairman Li. Liang Sheng drummed his fingers against the armrest as he glanced at the briefcase in his hand.
Today, he was going to hand over the report to Chairman Li. It has been more than a month since he had gone to B City to meet Li Qin Yao. Liang Sheng had gathered a few people where they were working to prepare a proposal for QL Group's potential project in B City.
As the mediator between Li Qin Yao and Chairman Li, Liang Sheng had to travel back and forth between Capital City and B City. Although it was a bit tiring for him, Liang Sheng found that he enjoyed working alongside Li Qin Yao.
Liang Sheng tilted up his head as he heard the sound of high heels clack against the floor.
”Who are you?”
Liang Sheng did not reply to the question. He gave the woman before him a look over, and quickly figured out who that person was - Chairman Li's granddaughter, Li Mu Chen. He stood up and smiled. ”Miss Li. Hello.”
Li Mu Chen snorted. ”Are you waiting for my grandfather?”
”Yes.”
Li Mu Chen frowned, at the way the man in front of him replied to her questions. Her eyes narrowed as she continued to observe the man. Somehow, Li Mu Chen could not stop thinking that she had seen him before. ”You seemed familiar. Have we met before?”
Liang Sheng thought about it for a while and answered, ”You have probably seen me with my father, Liang Xue Ming. He is Chairman Li's assistant.”
The frown in Li Mu Chen's face deepened. She was sure that was not the case.
However, at this time, the butler came back to call Liang Sheng to meet Chairman Li. After nodding politely to Li Mu Chen, Liang Sheng followed after the butler to Chairman Li's office.
Li Mu Chen's gaze followed as the man left. As she gazed at his side profile, something flashed into her mind. Her eyes widened as she fumbled for her phone in her hand. Li Mu Chen went through the contact list and called a number. She waited for a few seconds until the line was connected.
”What is it?”
”Mom,” Li Mu Chen heaved with relief as the line was connected. She glanced at the direction where the man had gone before she walked out of the mansion. ”Mom, I have some news for you.”

Li Qin Yao stood up from her seat and stretched up her body. She has been staring at the computer from the early morning and was starting to get tired. Fortunately, they had finished her report, and now, Liang Sheng had gone to the Capital City to hand it over to her grandfather.
Because of that, Li Qin Yao had given the four staffs a two days break. Once her grandfather had approved of the report, they were supposed to be busy again.
Her phone on the table vibrated as she grabbed the half-full coffee mug on her desk, Li Qin Yao drank her coffee while glancing at the screen. Her eyes widened as she saw the caller. She put down her coffee mug and swiped her fingers on the screen.
”Liang Sheng? How was it?” Li Qin Yao asked as the call was connected.
