Chapter 1350: Chapter 1222: I Am Aloft, Only Focused on Nuannuan (Part 3)
But ultimately, Yu Dou held the upper hand. Despite President Li’s firm stance, Yu Dou still managed to seal the deal.
Once the cooperation intentions were discussed, the contract was modified. It would be delivered to President Li’s company for his review and signature at a later time.
The time afterwards was free.
President Li said, "I knew it wouldn’t be easy with Mr. Yu. When I asked him to meet me at the golf course, I thought I’d have to postpone the negotiations until tomorrow. But I didn’t expect to wrap it up today. Mr. Yu, you are impressive!"
Yu Dou laughed, "President Li, you’re too kind. The main point is this project is mutually beneficial. President Li has foresight and already sees significant profit in the future, so for the enterprise’s development, he naturally agreed to sign without hesitation..."
President Li was startled, then laughed heartily, unsure of what to say.
Shi Nuan went to the restroom, with Ji Xia accompanying her.
There was no one else in the restroom, so Shi Nuan finally had the chance to speak to Ji Xia.
Ji Xia said, "Nuannuan, you seemed very close to Song Yansheng today. Both President Li and President Guo noticed it; are you sure... there won’t be any issues?"
Shi Nuan squinted her eyes and after a moment said, "Don’t worry, there won’t be any issues!"
Because Song Yansheng wouldn’t proceed without certainty.
Ji Xia was still worried, "But I saw you two playing games earlier, and you seemed visibly tense!"
Shi Nuan said, "I was tense, but I trust Song Yansheng’s judgment, so there’s no need to worry!"
Ji Xia was stunned, realizing Shi Nuan’s assurance was solely based on her trust in Song Yansheng.
Yet they had only been married for about half a year...
Ji Xia sighed, "Anyway, if you feel there’s no problem, then there’s no problem. I believe you!"
Recalling something, Ji Xia said, "By the way, that Ye Mingmei said she knows you and Song Yansheng are married. She looks quite young and seems cheerful. I’m worried she might accidentally spill the secret to her classmates and friends..."
"Don’t worry, she won’t..."
"But..."
"But what? Sister Ji Xia doesn’t trust me? I’ve already said I won’t tell anyone. Little sister-in-law believes me; since Sister Ji Xia matters to the little sister-in-law, she should trust me as well..."
Ji Xia looked towards the restroom door at Ye Mingmei, feeling somewhat guilty, and said, "Sorry, Mingmei, I actually..."
"No need to apologize, Sister Ji Xia. You don’t see me often, so you don’t trust me, I understand. Once we’ve spent more time together in the future, I believe Sister Ji Xia definitely won’t feel this way towards me again..."
Ji Xia felt even guiltier hearing this, wanting to apologize to Ye Mingmei, but Ye Mingmei went straight to Shi Nuan and pulled at her sleeve, saying, "Little sister-in-law, Brother Yu said it’s almost 4:30 now; you don’t need to return to the office. He’ll drive us back to the Song Mansion..."
Shi Nuan checked the time; it was indeed 4:30. There wasn’t much time until the 5 o’clock end of work, so she nodded in agreement.
Ye Mingmei was very pleased and said, "Then, little sister-in-law, let’s go find Brother Yu now!"
"Hold on..." Shi Nuan stopped her, turning to Ji Xia, "Sister Xia, I’m leaving first, if you need anything, you can call me... Oh, and in a few days is Yu Dou and Sister Qingyang’s wedding, I heard you’re one of the bridesmaids, congratulations, Sister Xia!"
Ji Xia smiled self-deprecatingly, "It’s just being a bridesmaid, what is there to congratulate for!"
"Of course, congratulations are in order! I’ve never seen you as a bridesmaid before. Sister Xia, you’re beautiful, with a tall figure; I imagine you’ll look stunning in formal wear..."
Ji Xia laughed and said, "Alright, Mr. Song is still waiting for you, you better take Mingmei and go!"
Shi Nuan then left with Ye Mingmei.
But they hadn’t gone far when they saw Song Yansheng and two bodyguards rushing over.
Shi Nuan paused her steps, puzzled, "What’s wrong? Sec... Second Uncle!"
Song Yansheng pulled her along, saying, "We need to leave quickly, some reporters have snuck in outside!"
Shi Nuan froze, "Reporters?"
Song Yansheng said, "Now Yu Dou is temporarily holding them off; I’ll take you and Mingmei through the side path. If we’re any later, you might not be able to leave at all. Just now, Chi Rui called me. A large group of media reporters are driving towards the golf course and may arrive soon..."
Shi Nuan: "..."
