Chapter 6: Dinner Together

…

Just as she was about to retort that Shen Yunze had no chance to display his abilities, Qin Yanzhou, overly self-confident and sharp-tongued, came in.

Winning an argument, the cheapskate got all the benefits!

Shen Yunze was furious, but before he could vent his anger, the assistant who came in to deliver coffee was trembling, his feet like he was stepping on a spinning wheel, he placed the cup down and quickly left.

He told the assistant to inform the Qin Corporation that regarding the amendment of the “Eastern Asian Bay Area Z Plan,” the matter would be postponed.

After a while, Shen Yunze dialed the internal company line, his tone resolute.

Anyway, the Qin Corporation didn’t have the authority to unilaterally amend the agreement, he would simply delay it until the first day of the contract signing to discuss this matter.

——Shanghai——

Shen Muyan stood at the best viewing spot on the first pier, looking out into the distance. The azure blue sea was gently rolling, the waves rising to just the right height. The sun was scorching today, and layered clouds floated in the pale blue sky, pure and varied in shape.

Sister, the scenery on the first pier is comparable to the coast!

…Shen Muyan nodded as if she understood, her mouth silently murmuring two words, she turned her head towards the source of the voice, opened her laptop and searched for something.

To build the first pier into a tourist port, besides building some attractions, it’s not enough. With such good resources, why not connect it with the coastal cities, like Hong Kong, Macau…

Moreover, the first pier is also far from the Yangtze River Estuary, it can further expand its influence to the inland areas.

With the Qin Corporation and Shen Corporation taking the lead, and more groups investing in this area, the prospects are incredibly vast.

A faint smile rippled across Shen Muyan’s face, she already had a draft of the plan in her mind.

Without speaking, she closed her laptop and said: “Ning Qing, let’s go back.”

In the afternoon, the curtains were all drawn open, leaving only a layer of gauze, the sunset glow was dazzling. Orange and yellow clouds overlapped, dyeing the room from the edge to the center, gradually fading from deep to light.

The last ray of pale yellow light slipped into the room, refracted by the tiles.

The sound of keyboard tapping, tight and continuous.

Only when the doorbell rang did Shen Muyan raise her head, her eyes swept across the giant landscape painting on the wall, she tapped the gauze curtain switch, the room was already dim and hazy.

“Sister, it’s time for dinner.” Ning Qing entered, her voice softened: “Should we go upstairs?”

“Let’s go.” Shen Muyan put away her documents and got up to leave the chair, lazily stretching her waist. She had finished the first draft this afternoon, and with some more refinement tonight, it would be perfect.

“This time, Mr. Qin is still very… we can only ask my brother or father to meet and discuss with him.”

The nutritionist in the house would estimate the dining time and prepare the meals. After a certain time, the dishes would be lighter and easier on the stomach, they knew that Sister Muyan’s stomach wouldn’t be comfortable with greasy food at night.

After dinner, Shen Muyan went upstairs to wash up first, then immersed herself in the plan and the agreement.

She personally revised the parts of the agreement and carefully checked them again.

Looking at the time again, it was already 1 am.

“Ugh, so tired.” Shen Muyan rubbed her tired eyes, put away the documents, worried that staying up late would damage her skin, she applied some skincare products, and finally fell into a deep sleep.

She forgot to set an alarm, and when Ning Qing came to wake her up in the morning, she was still lost in her dreams.

The room was dim, the curtains tightly blocking out the piercing sunlight.

Shen Muyan tossed and turned for a few times, until she saw the time, she sat up straight.

9:30 am.

Her mind was still foggy, her smooth hair was slightly messy and draped over her back, a few strands of hair fell like jade-like drops on her face, covering her beautiful eyes.

She yawned gracefully, holding a fox doll, her eyes were dull, she hadn’t fully recovered her energy yet, she was still charging.

After a few minutes, she got up to wash up, and then ate breakfast while contacting the Shanghai International Port and Trade Group, making an appointment to meet with Mr. Qin this afternoon to discuss the plan and the cooperation.

The Shanghai International Port and Trade Group received the message and immediately contacted the president’s office. At this time, Qin Yanzhou was dealing with affairs in Europe.

He was somewhat surprised at first, but his expression remained unchanged, only his eyebrows slightly raised, he agreed to the meeting.

He pushed aside all his appointments after 2 pm, and contacted the Shen Corporation, only requiring them to be responsible for sending someone to the meeting.

The person responsible was Shen Muyan, in other words, he was still only seeing her.

This involved such a large investment, and the project was quite complex, the plan wouldn’t be complete without tens of thousands of words, yet Shen Muyan was able to handle it.

He was quite looking forward to the finished product.

This was the first time Shen Muyan met Qin Yanzhou alone, she was slightly more relaxed, she followed Lu Lin into his office, seeing him still immersed in dealing with something, she didn’t directly interrupt him.

“…”

Still with that casual tone, although Qin Yanzhou was busy, he didn’t ignore the beautiful girl.

For no reason, it was just that Shen Muyan’s blue dress clashed with the elegant tone of the office, it was very eye-catching.

A few minutes later, the secretary brought in two cups of coffee, this time with sugar in one of the cups.

A stack of plans and agreements was placed in front of Qin Yanzhou and Shen Muyan, Shen Muyan sat upright and elegantly, her eyes observing Qin Yanzhou’s expression.

Actually, she was confident in her heart, she trusted herself enough.

Qin Yanzhou also looked at the plan more carefully this time, he found that the plan had many branch projects added, the scenery and subsequent development were detailed and comprehensive, the content was complete and logically organized.

Facing occasional inquiries, Shen Muyan was able to answer fluently, her voice was soft but resilient, her core was very stable.

She had stayed up late last night, the files were in front of her, his sharp eyes keenly noticed a hint of fatigue in her eyes, no matter how long she slept the next day, it wouldn’t make up for the lack of sleep.

Shen Muyan wouldn’t lie, she nodded honestly and replied: “Yes.”

“Staying up late… did you finish writing it?”

The latter sentence was tinged with a hint of reproach, a low murmur.

The words fell precisely into Qin Yanzhou’s ears, but he didn’t get angry, he didn’t even blame her.

The agreement and plan were both perfect, she had indeed written them very well.

The two of them asked and answered questions, they felt like they had only chatted for two hours.

At 2:30 pm, the coffee had gone completely cold, he forgot to tell Shen Muyan that the cup had sugar.

Qin Yanzhou felt that Shen Muyan was now like a deflated balloon, listless.

He felt a little regretful, in this state, even if he extended the deadline, it wouldn’t matter. Seeing her being tortured like this, it seemed a bit cruel.

“It’s time, let’s go have a meal.”

This was the first time Qin Yanzhou had taken the initiative to invite someone to dinner, usually, it was his turn to invite people to dinner.
