Qiao Yin and Secretary Wan followed Dongfang Mu closely, one on each side, playing their roles as assistants very well.
Everyone else was already waiting outside, and they left the hotel in a special car provided by Siya Automobiles to head to the venue.
Sitting in the car, Dongfang Mu couldn’t resist joking: “Siya Automobiles’ system problem hasn’t been solved yet, so why do I feel that I’m a bit closer to heaven while sitting in this car?”
Qiao Yin smiled and remained silent.
She didn’t have Dongfang Mu’s relaxed attitude, as this was her first time following her boss on a business trip to grab a project, and she was quite nervous.
Besides, their competitor was Shengling Group.
She had no choice but to win this competition, both for personal and business reasons.
About ten minutes later, they arrived at the venue.
They were one of the later ones to arrive, and almost everyone had already taken their seats at the venue.
Dongfang Mu sat down without haste in the seats reserved for Eastern Empire.
The area next to Eastern Empire was reserved for Shengling Group.
Shengling Group also brought a team of more than a dozen people, led by Lu Lingche.
Dongfang Mu leaned over the seat between them and smiled, “President Lu, long time no see.”
Lu Lingche didn’t look at him but at a white figure that caught him by surprise.
Qiao Yin?
Why was she here?
Unfazed by his indifference, Dongfang Mu continued to smile, “Oh, President Lu, are you interested in my new assistant? Oh yes, you’ve seen her before when she interviewed with our corporation.”
Lu Lingche finally withdrew his gaze and coldly looked at Dongfang Mu: “You know very well who she is; there’s no need to pretend you don’t know about her relationship with me. What’s your motive for bringing her here?”
“She’s my assistant, and she’s so beautiful that I took a liking to her. Who else should I bring? Since our corporation is no match for yours, I might as well treat it as a vacation. Having a beauty accompany me will keep the journey from being dull!”
“It’s good you know you can’t win.”
Lu Lingche spoke indifferently: “If you’re planning to use her for anything against me or Shengling Group, you’ll be disappointed. She knows nothing about me or the group, so she’s of no value.”
Dongfang Mu couldn’t help but laugh.
Qiao Yin has no value?
Lu Lingche will pay a heavy price for underestimating his opponent in the near future.
What good is being a genius? Such arrogance, thinking he controls everything, yet he doesn’t even know his own wife.
Truly pitiful!
“President Lu, don’t be too business-minded. Harmony brings wealth. I didn’t bring Qiao Yin as a bargaining chip, and I don’t intend to use her for anything. But since I’ve run into you here, there’s a question I want to ask.”
Dongfang Mu paused for a few seconds, and then lowered his voice: “When are you divorcing?”
Lu Lingche responded coldly: “It’s none of your business.”
“How can it not be related? Once you divorce, then I can propose, right?”
Lu Lingche thought he had misheard: “You want to marry her?”
“Indeed, I have thought about it. But I haven’t dared to tell her yet for fear of scaring her. President Lu, be sure not to spill the beans.”
Lu Lingche couldn’t help but glance at Qiao Yin again.
Several seats away from them, she was sitting there with Dongfang Mu’s other team members, watching her computer screen with a stack of documents next to her.
What set her apart was that everyone else was nervously tinkering with their computers, their fingers never leaving the keyboard.
Only she hadn’t touched her keyboard, just staring at the screen as if she was a layman who didn’t know how to use a computer.
Among a crowd of men, she looked out of place, not just because she was a woman, but also because of her outstanding looks, which had already attracted the attention of many people.
Lu Lingche had never expected that she would accompany Dongfang Mu on a business trip, and he furrowed his brows deeply. What was she up to?
Was she short of money, so she started working as an assistant for Dongfang Mu?
Or did she like Dongfang Mu and seized this opportunity to deepen their relationship?
