Dong Peng praised her from the bottom of his heart. “It’s a game of chess.
Some people only care about the step in front of them. Some smart people take one step and look at the next step. President Shan, you take one step and think about the next five steps.”
“Uncle Dong, you flatter me. My insignificant ability is actually not enough.”
Shan Yue would not be smug just because of other people’s praise. “You have to know that there will always be people stronger than me. I’ve also grown through constant learning and improvement.”
“Ever since I met President Shan, she’s been so humble. She’s never looked down on others.”
Zhou Xuan joined Dong Peng. “In the past, I had always been aiming for the title of the number one corporation in the Federation City. Ever since 1 obtained it, I gradually lost the motivation to advance. It was Shan Yue’s appearance that gave me a goal to catch up to again…”
“Alright, the two bosses are both my seniors. There’s no need to praise me like this anymore.” Before Zhou Xuan could finish speaking, Shan Yue immediately stretched out her hand and interrupted him.
“Although there was a small episode of Cheng Yan today, our two goals for coming here have been completed. There’s no need for everyone to worry about anything. Instead of that, it’s better to start enjoying the current banquet as much as possible.”
Shan Yue waved for the attendant to come over and added some dishes to the table. “President Zhou and President Dong are in charge of some funds, so you don’t have to participate in tonight’s operation. After the banquet ends, you can go back and rest in advance. There are still many things that need your help in the future.”
“No problem, President Shan.”
Dong Peng was also very tactful. As soon as he heard Shan Yue’s words, he understood that she had already changed from a state of doing things to a relaxed state. Hence, he immediately made room for Shan Yue and Zhou Xuan to be alone.
At this moment, only Shan Yue and Zhou Xuan were left at the table.
“Shan Yue, you have to be more careful in tonight’s operation. 1 know that if we want to go with you, we will definitely drag you down in the operation.
Therefore, I will wait until your operation is over and you return safely.”
Zhou Xuan moved his chair closer to Shan Yue. “If I hadn’t waited for you to come out, I would have tacitly assumed that something had happened to you inside. Not to mention a small Federation First Hospital, even if it was a police station, I would still bring people in. I won’t allow you to be hurt.”
“I understand your worry. I’ll tell you as soon as I’m safely evacuated. Just wait for my good news.”
Since the two of them were already together, Shan Yue did not show any resistance to Zhou Xuan’s approach. Instead, she leaned towards him. “Actually, when everyone was present just now, I only vaguely explained the situation that we could meet tonight. Actually, I already know the rough process.”
Zhou Xuan did not show any surprise at Shan Yue’s words, as if it was within his expectations. It was only because he was in the same position as Shan Yue that he could deeply understand her thoughts.
After all, the leader of a company could not tell the truth about all his thoughts. One could not have the intention to harm others, but one had to be wary of others. Once one placed oneself in a completely passive position, the consequences would be difficult to bear.
“I know you must be holding back. It would be really inconsistent with your style of doing things if you told the truth about your whereabouts.”
“That’s right. You know me best. I’ve always done things like this, so you don’t have to worry about my safety at all.”
Shan Yue took the initiative to hold Zhou Xuan’s hand, making him gradually feel relieved. “Cheng Yan is not an arrogant vase. It’s impossible for her to be so slow. Therefore, when 1 move at night, there shouldn’t be any danger, because everything in the ward should have been cleaned up by then.”
“That’s true, but we’re sneaking in after all. Who knows if something unexpected will happen?”
Even so, Zhou Xuan still couldn’t relax. “No matter what the outcome is, I’ll get my men to guard the entrance of the Federation Hospital. If you can come out safely, my men won’t do anything. If anything happens to you, you just have to make a call and the helpers will immediately arrive..”
