This CEO Lu was vastly different from the investors he had encountered before.
He appeared as if he didn’t care about anything, but when he gave a serious glance, his demeanor shifted instantly.
Jiang Qingchi had inquired about this founder before. Initially, he somewhat looked down upon him, thinking that this person’s achievements were merely a result of his background.
His stroke of luck seemed intertwined with his connections.
However, after gaining a deeper understanding, Jiang Qingchi couldn’t help but be impressed.
This individual was truly exceptional.
However, regardless of Jiang Qingchi’s efforts to persuade Lu An, the latter completely disregarded him and left the conference room without even sparing a glance, as if he were non-existent.
It was exceedingly awkward.
The conference room was now entirely enveloped in an uncomfortable atmosphere.
No one dared to speak, and they were too embarrassed to even meet Jiang Qingchi’s gaze.
Lu An’s aversion to Jiang Qingchi had become quite evident.
Given his attitude, it was unlikely that anyone else would voice an objection.
Jiang Qingchi’s expression had indeed soured, and he felt somewhat at a loss.
A while later, he grasped Lu An’s significance and eventually caught up with him.
He hurriedly reached Lu An.
“CEO Lu, could you spare me a few more minutes?”
Lu An cast a casual glance at the person before him, his eyes tinged with strong impatience.
Nonetheless, Jiang Qingchi was too preoccupied to pay much attention to that. He anxiously implored, “CEO Lu, I still hope you could grant our company another chance. We will certainly not disappoint you. Choosing us won’t lead to any regrets!”
“You want me to give you a chance?” Lu An teased with a faint smile, “I’m afraid you’ll have to wait until your next lifetime.”
Jiang Qingchi hadn’t expected Lu An to be so dismissive, exhibiting such a rather harsh attitude towards him.
He couldn’t recall having ever offended this person.
Why was that?
Lu An’s repulsion towards him was quite palpable.
Lu An had never intended to hold back when it came to Jiang Qingchi.
Everyone in the company knew that Lu An had a short temper. Those who had interacted with him in the workplace were well aware of this.
Only those naive young women were still being fooled by Lu An’s appearance. They genuinely believed that a handsome face equated to being a prince charming, though he might also be the Fire-Breathing Warrior.
As those young girls were daydreaming about marrying Lu An, the company’s higher-ups were secretly speculating that such a person might tend toward domestic violence.
At this moment, Jin Nian, who was about to go to her appointment, sneezed a few times.
Checking the time, she figured it was about time and made a call to Qiao Ranran.
“I’m almost at the airport. Don’t worry, 1 promise to give Feifei a surprise.”
Jin Nian chuckled. “I’m afraid the surprise might be more of a shock.”
However, when she passed by a flower shop, she still decided to buy a bouquet. After all, no matter what, a surprise should come with flowers.
Yu Feifei’s flight was scheduled for 3:30 PM. By 3 o’clock, Jin Nian and Qiao Ranran were already waiting in the lobby.
Perhaps they were lucky, but the flight had arrived earlier than expected that day. After a short wait, they spotted Yu Feifei and Lu Feng walking out hand in hand.
They made quite a visually appealing couple. Despite their masks, their presence couldn’t be ignored.
“Feifei!”
Jin Nian and Qiao Ranran waved to her.
Yu Feifei looked in their direction and then dashed toward them, leaving her boyfriend behind.
The three of them quickly embraced, and even though they hadn’t seen each other in a while, there was no sense of unfamiliarity. From the moment they hugged, an intimate feeling enveloped them.
After sharing a warm embrace and studying each other for a moment, the three finally separated, exchanging glances.
Yu Feifei patted Jin Nian’s shoulder, a hint of concern in her voice, “1 didn’t notice it in our last video chat. Have you lost this much weight?”
“Have 1 lost weight?” Jin Nian playfully touched her face, grinning, “You know how to praise people the moment you meet them. Did you learn this from abroad?”
Yu Feifei couldn’t help but roll her eyes.
“Does my comment even sound like praise?”
At that moment, Lu Feng approached with a suitcase. He smiled at Jin Nian and Qiao Ranran and greeted them in a refined manner.
“Not bad, not bad. You’re getting even more handsome.”
Qiao Ranran was familiar with Lu Feng, and her banter wasn’t awkward at all. However, her compliment was genuinely heartfelt.
Lu Feng thanked them politely and took out the gifts he had prepared in advance for them.
Jin Nian took the gift and finally looked at Lu Feng seriously..
