Chapter 21: Master Sheng Coaxing a Woman?

While she was imagining a grand drama, some people were seeing everything clearly.

When Meng Tian accompanied her uncle Meng Chengzhang and boss Wang Rui down from the building, she also saw Lin Yuan standing aside.

It wasn’t that she deliberately looked at her, but Lin Yuan was exceptionally dazzling in the crowd.

It was like there was an unbreakable barrier around her, a barrier with a halo that enveloped her, making her whole person shine brightly.

Meng Tian couldn’t ignore it even if she wanted to.

Lin Yuan didn’t see An Jinghao’s gaze, but Meng Tian did.

She clenched her fist and walked away from Lin Yuan, secretly cursing her as a vixen.

Unexpectedly, when they sent An Jinghao outside, An Jinghao turned back with a meaningful look, “I’m very interested in Mr. Wang’s project. I happen to have someone who can collaborate with Mr. Wang’s company. How about we have dinner together tonight to discuss it in detail?”

Wang Rui was naturally willing, “Looking forward to cooperating with An Group.”

An Jinghao changed the subject, “Was that the design department I passed by just now?”

Wang Rui was slightly startled, then nodded, “Yes, the design department has more say in this project. To better showcase the company’s products, would Mr. An mind if I bring the design department along?”

They were all smart people, and a single glance could understand each other’s intentions.

An Jinghao raised an eyebrow, “That would be best.”

Lin Yuan never expected that just two days after joining Ary, she would be attending her second dinner gathering.

Wang Rui personally announced in the design department that the company was about to collaborate with An Group in Beijing. This project was crucial for the company’s future expansion into Beijing, and he hoped everyone would take it seriously.

They would be having dinner with the person in charge of An Group tonight, and everyone in the design department had to attend.

As he spoke, his eyes seemed to glance unintentionally at Lin Yuan’s direction. Lin Yuan remembered the boss’s “hint” earlier, and now she was even more certain.

The boss’s glance was probably another way of hinting at her.

She quickly nodded.

After Wang Rui went upstairs, Meng Tian walked over to Lin Yuan’s workstation, wearing high heels, “Tsk tsk tsk, what a good trick, Lin Yuan. You’re eating from the bowl while looking at the pot. I didn’t expect you to hook An Jinghao from An Group with just one glance. You’re truly a cunning vixen.”

Lin Yuan knew that she couldn’t expect any kind words from this dog’s mouth. She also provocatively looked at Meng Tian, “Thank you for the compliment.”

Meng Tian: “You!”

How could there be such a shameless person, couldn’t she tell she was being insulted?

Lin Yuan: “Not everyone can be a vixen, there’s a certain level of beauty required.” Her eyes swept over Meng Tian, then she shook her head regretfully, “You probably won’t have that chance in your life.”

Meng Tian was so angry that her teeth were starting to sour. Lin Yuan was like a soft knife, not hot-tempered but able to pierce her heart.

Thinking that Lin Yuan would be gone soon, she felt a little bit of relief, “I’ll see how long you can flaunt it!”

She finished her words and left, Lin Yuan snorted coldly: Idiot!

Thinking about the dinner tonight, Lin Yuan didn’t know how to tell Sheng Xiao. She had already attended two dinners in just two days. Yesterday, this man seemed to be a little dissatisfied, and now another one today. She was worried that he would come to her in bed to settle accounts!

She nervously dialed Sheng Xiao’s phone, she had to tell him.

On the other side of the city, in a high-end hotel, Sheng Xiao had already changed out of those cheap clothes, wearing a tailored high-end suit, sitting in a temporary meeting room, holding a meeting with several executives of Shengshi.

Because he didn’t have time to fly back to Beijing, Zuo Chuan had to bring these executives to Yancheng.

To accommodate his schedule.

The meeting was halfway through when a loud phone ringing suddenly broke out.

Usually, when Sheng Xiao held meetings, he would require everyone to silence their phones. Last time, a senior executive forgot to turn off his phone’s ringtone, and he was directly kicked out of the meeting room in front of everyone.

Without any mercy.

Now hearing this ringing, the financial director was the first to remember Sheng Xiao’s taboo. He, with his obvious intention, said, “Whose phone is that, no respect for the occasion!”

After saying that, he sneakily glanced at Sheng Xiao, but this glance happened to meet Sheng Xiao’s eyes, and he felt that something was not quite right.

Then the next moment, he saw Sheng Xiao take out the ringing domestic phone from his pocket and pressed the answer button.

Although it wasn’t on speakerphone, the volume of the domestic phone was surprisingly loud, so a sweet and soft woman’s voice could still be heard in the meeting room.

“Sheng Xiao, are you busy?”

“Hmm.”

“Our company is having dinner with a big client tonight, and I can’t accompany you for dinner again.”

The woman’s voice had a touch of coquettishness and complaint. Sheng Xiao listened with a slight smile on his lips, got up with the phone in hand, “Hmm, I’ll pick you up tonight.”

“Okay, I’ll call you when I’m almost done.”

“Good.”

Then, as if he remembered something, he quickly said, “No drinking!”

After they finished things in the morning, Sheng Xiao told Lin Yuan about what happened yesterday. Lin Yuan was so embarrassed that she couldn’t even lift her head. Without him saying anything, she wouldn’t dare drink anymore, so she flattered him, “Don’t worry, I won’t drink.”

The two of them chatted sweetly for a while, and Lin Yuan hung up the phone. When Sheng Xiao returned to his desk, the tenderness on his face had vanished.

It was replaced by a stern expression and a decisive aura.

The group of executives were stunned for a long time, Master Sheng was… coaxing a woman?

This was even more shocking than seeing a pig climb a tree!

But Sheng Xiao ignored them, just coldly looked at the financial director and said, “Continue the meeting!”

The financial director was already sweating profusely at this moment.

He wasn’t usually this obvious!

Why did he have to say that extra sentence!

In the end, he used his outward appearance this time in exchange for lifelong introversion!

Life is not worth it!

In the evening, Wang Rui brought the design department and the company’s senior executives to the restaurant. Unlike the employee gathering last time, this time the restaurant chosen was a more upscale one in Yancheng.

After all, they were going to entertain someone like An Jinghao, the company couldn’t be too shabby.

Hao Tingting, a small design department girl who joined the company at the same time as Lin Yuan, looked at the restaurant in front of her, even describing it as luxurious, and kept clicking her tongue, “Yuan, our boss Wang is really powerful.”

They wouldn’t even be able to afford one meal here with their annual salary.

Meng Tian stood beside them, rolling her eyes in disdain, “Country bumpkin in the city, never seen the world!”

She had the honor of coming to this restaurant with her uncle to accompany clients a few years ago!

Although she didn’t end up eating because of certain reasons, as long as she didn’t say anything, who would know?

While she mocked others, she was also a little excited in her heart.

She would definitely take more photos and post them on her Moments later. This meal would be enough for her to brag for half a year!
