With My Profound Love, I Offer to the Years

Chapter 87

If they could win the lawsuit soon and make those two beasts pay the price, perhaps... they could let go and move forward.

Thinking of the other purpose of this trip besides work, Lu Lingchen's eyes were determined.

This time, they must successfully obtain what they want!

"Assistant Shen."

The two were sitting when they heard a third person's voice. Looking up, they saw Zou Zhijie, President Zou's nephew, bringing tea and water over. He smiled especially warmly when he saw Shen Nian.

Pushing the tea in front of Shen Nian, Zou Zhijie smiled and said, "Assistant Shen, their red tea tastes really good. It's a very authentic English red tea. Give it a try."

"..." Shen Nian frowned at his excessive eagerness, which she found hard to accept.

His intentions were written all over his face. Seeing his ingratiating manner, Lu Lingchen's interest was instantly piqued, and he straightened up to watch with relish.

"No need," Shen Nian refused decisively. "I don't like drinking tea."

"..." Zou Zhijie's smile froze, but he soon put on a new smile. "You don't like tea? No problem, the coffee here is also..."

"I'm not thirsty right now," Shen Nian refused outright. "Sorry, Young Master Zou, I'm discussing work with Manager Lu."

She nodded and gave him a look that clearly meant he should leave.

"..." Rejected, Zou Zhijie scratched his nose, smiled awkwardly, and found a way out for himself. "I see. Okay, then I'll go book the hotel first. After President Zou and my uncle finish golfing, we'll still need to go have dinner."

With that, he left somewhat reluctantly.

Watching his departing back, Lu Lingchen raised an eyebrow, his gaze falling on the red tea in front of Shen Nian. He picked it up and drank it quite shamelessly.

"Hmm." After taking a sip, Lu Lingchen closed his eyes, seriously savoring the taste. "It really is authentic English red tea."

"..." Shen Nian looked at him speechlessly. "Aren't you afraid he put something in it?"

Lu Lingchen dared to drink tea offered by a stranger, truly a greenhorn.

His clear gaze revealed a hint of stupidity.

Lu Lingchen opened his eyes and looked at Shen Nian with an air of gossip. "As expected of my Sister Nian. Even dressed like this, you still attract countless men to bend over for you."

The black-framed glasses perched on Shen Nian's nose bridge covered up half of her beauty, but her charm was undimmed.

"..." Shen Nian said nothing about her alluring charm. "They're just a bunch of hypocrites who couldn't be more hypocritical."

They were attracted by her face, so they shamelessly pestered her, affecting her mood and wasting her time.

Years ago, those two beasts had seen the beautiful, pure faces of Lu Lingrui and Shen Nian and formed wicked intentions. Since then, Shen Nian had become averse to people hitting on her.

She would feel disgusted, even annoyed.

Not wanting to discuss this topic, Shen Nian asked Lu Lingchen instead, "How is your mother doing?"

Lu Lingchen took another sip of red tea and replied, "The effect is good. The chemotherapy process is a bit tough, and her condition isn't very good, but you can tell she's actively cooperating with the treatment."

After hearing this, Shen Nian nodded and murmured, "That's good."

As long as she cooperates, it's good.

...

A few hours later, Lu Lingchuan and President Zou returned.

After golfing, the plan was to go to the hotel for dinner. President Zou said to Lu Lingchuan, "President Lu, I know of a seafood place that is their specialty. I must let you try how delicious it is!"

Being by the sea, seafood was a local specialty.

After getting ready, they left the golf course and headed to the hotel together.

On President Zou's side were himself, his secretary, and Zou Zhijie. On Lu Lingchuan's side were Shen Nian, Lu Lingchen, as well as Manager Yu and Deputy Manager Chen, who would be mainly responsible for subsequent cooperation after the project was finalized.

Since Lu Lingchuan would be busy with other matters after reaching the cooperation, he didn't have time to instruct his subordinates, so he brought the two managers with him. After finalizing the deal here, he would immediately have them take over the subsequent cooperation.

As soon as they got out of the car, Lu Lingchen's phone rang. He answered without much thought, but his expression changed after hearing what was said on the other end.

"Brother," he called out to Lu Lingchuan.

Lu Lingchuan, who was walking ahead, stopped.

Lu Lingchen hurried over and said a few words in his ear. Shen Nian was standing behind Lu Lingchuan, so she didn't hear what he said, but she guessed about seven or eight points from reading his lips.

It seemed there was an issue with Li Mingshi's treatment.

This was just Shen Nian's guess, which was confirmed when she saw Lu Lingchuan's expression change.

Lu Lingchuan nodded to President Zou, "Sorry, I have an urgent matter to attend to. Let me take a call first."

President Zou was taken aback but quickly said, "Then President Lu, please go handle your business first. After taking the call, a server will bring you to the private room."

Lu Lingchuan responded and hurried outside while dialing his phone, with Lu Lingchen following closely behind.

Although they left, Shen Nian and the others were still there. President Zou shifted his gaze back and smiled warmly at Shen Nian, "Assistant Shen, please."

They entered the private room first, and as the host, President Zou naturally sat in the main seat. Zou Zhijie was his nephew, so he sat to his right. After sitting down, President Zou beckoned eagerly to Shen Nian.

"Assistant Shen, sit here."

"..." Shen Nian didn't even look at him and walked around to sit in the third seat to the left of President Zou.

She left the two seats in the middle vacant for Lu Lingchuan and Lu Lingchen.

The two managers sat beside her.

As soon as she sat down, President Zou showed a friendly smile. "When I attended the banquet in the capital before, I heard people say that President Lu has a young lady by his side. Although young, she is very capable. Today, I finally have the honor of dining with Assistant Shen."

The smile on Shen Nian's face was just right, with the curve of her lips meeting the standard, leaving no room for criticism.

"You're too kind. I'm just a small assistant."

Before coming, Lu Lingchuan had investigated President Zou thoroughly. Naturally, President Zou also understood Lu Lingchuan's achievements over the years, and a woman named Shen Nian was always behind each of Lu Lingchuan's successes.

In this day and age, it's easy to find a young, pretty assistant, but it's difficult to find one as young, pretty, and capable as Shen Nian.

"One of the heads of my subsidiaries went abroad recently. With him gone, that subsidiary of mine is like a headless dragon, causing me a lot of worry. If I could have a capable assistant like Assistant Shen to share my burdens..."

President Zou said with a smile while meaningfully gazing at Shen Nian.

He didn't finish his sentence, but his implication was clear.

He had extended a temptation, intending to poach Shen Nian to work for him.

He specifically mentioned the subsidiary and being his right-hand person, telling Shen Nian that if she was willing to come work for him, he would give her the management of one of his subsidiaries.

Additionally, he would make her his right-hand person.
