Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In Tai Yu Corporation’s president’s office.
Qi Lei was standing by the sofa watering a potted plant when Yang Sheng suddenly knocked on the door and walked in—
“Master Qi, the Dongfang Group delegation is here. We’ve already brought them to the conference room. Shall we go over for the meeting now?”
Hearing this, Qi Lei stopped his actions unhurriedly and placed the water bottle in his hand to the side. As he reached out, Yang Sheng quickly understood and handed him a warm wet towel.
Qi Lei casually wiped his hands and walked towards the office desk.
“They’re quite punctual,” said Qi Lei flatly.
“Missus seems to be the same as you, Master Qi. You both like being on the dot.” Yang Sheng smiled.
“How to be on the dot is a knowledge too. What kind of look is that? Why aren’t you packing your things?”
Qi Lei glanced at Yang Sheng, and Yang Sheng smiled foolishly. He quickly picked up the folder on the table and left the office with Qi Lei.
In the spacious and luxurious meeting room, representatives from both sides of the company sat down in their seats, waiting for the people in the main seat to arrive.
However, it was said that this project was being handled by Tai Yu Corporation’s Vice President, Wang Chun. However, he did not come to the company today, and no one knew who was following up. Now, it seemed like it was their President Qi who was personally receiving them.
This was because President Qi’s assistant had personally come down to welcome the delegation from the Dongfang Group. Many of the management members sitting below were still surprised. The Dongfang Group really had a lot of face, the person who came was not the president of the Dongfang Group, Dongfang Gan himself, but to think that their President Qi was personally receiving them.
They had just seen the Chief Assistant, Yang Sheng, enthusiastically bringing the delegation over, especially to the other party’s manager, Dongfang Liuyun.
At this moment, the meeting room was very quiet. Everyone was waiting for the person sitting at the seat of honor.
Dongfang Liuyun’s seat was arranged to be the second seat on the left of the seat of honor. The person sitting next to Dongfang Liuyun was a department director, followed by Dongfang Rou’er.
At this moment, Dongfang Liuyun was still flipping through the information in her hands. From time to time, she would discuss with the department director next to him the things he should pay attention to. Dongfang Rou’er’s gaze was a little absent-minded. Occasionally, she would look at Dongfang Liuyun, she seemed to be a little unsettled.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside the door. Everyone subconsciously followed the sound and looked over. They saw that the door of the conference room had already been opened. Qi Lei walked in coldly—
He was dressed in a dark-colored slim-fit suit. His handsome and exquisite facial features were not evil-looking like before. Now, he looked a little serious. He exuded a deep and reserved aura all over.
He strode past the door and walked straight up. When he stopped, his gaze subconsciously fell on Dongfang Liuyun, who was reading a document on his left.
Dongfang Liuyun quietly raised her head and looked over. When she met his gaze, she slowly stood up. The group of people also stood up.
“Nice to meet you, President Qi!”
The group of people already greeted him respectfully. Qi Lei raised his hand to signal for them to sit down. He sat down as well, but his gaze fell directly on Dongfang Liuyun.
“Vice President Wang Chun is out on an errand today. I’ll be hosting the meeting. I’ve seen the initial proposal for the South River Project. Not bad, you guys have worked hard.”
As Qi Lei spoke, he took the document that Yang Sheng handed over.
“Manager Yun, can you briefly explain the general situation to everyone?”
Although Qi Lei’s tone was the same as usual, everyone could feel that their President Qi seemed to be quite polite to Manager Yun.
Looking at Manager Yun’s reaction—
“Yes, alright.”
Dongfang Liuyun gave a simple reply before standing up slowly.
Dongfang Liuyun understood this project very well. It was just like giving lectures in university. She could give a speech without a script.
He had to admit, Qi Lei admired the way the woman looked at this moment. It was a pleasure for Qi Lei to see her explain in such an orderly manner.
After listening to the end, Qi Lei changed to a comfortable position and listened quietly. Of course, he would occasionally ask a few questions, but their conversation felt inexplicably comfortable and harmonious, it did not seem like the way the two companies negotiated.
For example, right now, when Dongfang Liuyun was talking about decorations, Qi Lei suddenly said in a low voice—
“Why did you choose a clear and tidy footline? Most people and designers suggest a dark brown color. This color looks better and is more harmonious with the overall look. What do you think?”
“Actually, a dark brown color doesn’t necessarily look better than a black pattern. Moreover, the pattern we chose has a very layered feeling. The contrast will be very distinct and it will also look cleaner and more imposing. I think a black pattern is more suitable.”
Dongfang Liuyun’s tone was sonorous, and she was very firm in her opinion.
Qi Lei looked at her serious look and leaned over leisurely. He crossed his fingers and casually clasped them together. The corners of his mouth curled up as he said in a low voice, “Then let’s go with the black color. As long as you like it.”
Dongfang Liuyun actually nodded and replied indifferently, “Okay.”
Then, they continued with the next question.
The meeting went smoothly and the exchange of views between both sides was resolved in a harmonious manner. Dongfang Liuyun and the rest were naturally focused on the project, but today, Dongfang Rou’er was a little abnormal, it was also rare to see her so quiet during the meeting. If it was in the past, she would most likely not let go of the opportunity to show off.
This surprised Dongfang Liuyun.
When the meeting ended, it was already lunchtime. The Dongfang Group delegation was also arranged to have lunch.
The people who attended the meeting left the meeting room one after another. Dongfang Rou’er quietly packed her things and left slowly with her secretary. At this moment, Dongfang Liuyun was still organizing the meeting notes. Qi Lei had not left either, he was still sitting and flipping through the documents in his hands.
“What do you want to eat?”
At this moment, Qi Lei finally closed the documents in his hands and looked at Dongfang Liuyun.
Dongfang Liuyun quickly put away her pen and handed the documents to Secretary Ding behind her as she looked at him—
“I thought I’d have the chance to try the food in your company’s canteen.”
“How many times have you tried it? I’ll bring you to eat something delicious today. Let’s go.”
Qi Lei stood up leisurely.
“Are you rewarding me?”
Dongfang Liuyun smiled happily as the couple walked side by side towards the door.
