Su Chen looked down at Ji Zitong’s fair hands. After a while, he responded, “It’ll be at the end of the month. When Grandfather talked about this, he said that there’s a good date at the end of June, so it’ll be great if we make it then. I’ll call you when I reach there.”

“Okay, then you be careful, and uhh, take care of yourself.” Ji Zitong pulled her hand away and looked up slowly at him.

Su Chen nodded as he took a careful look at her. Then, he could not help but walk up by half a step and pull her into his embrace.

Despite being stunned, Ji Zitong did not reject him. Instead, she lifted her hands slightly and hung them uncertainly in the air for a while before gently hugging him back.

“Help me explain to Mother’s end that I’ll be a little busy in the upcoming weeks. When I get back and visit to send the betrothal gifts, I’ll make it up to your parents. I can’t delay the official business. I’ll get going now.” Su Chen patted her narrow back, and slowly let go of her.

Ji Zitong smiled and nodded before saying. “Okay, go then. Otherwise, you’re not going to make it for your flight.”

With a smile, Su Chen turned around to get in the car. When he started the car, he could not help but turn to take another look at her standing in the same spot to silently see him off.

Only when the car vanished at the end of the road and could no longer be seen did she turn around to leave.

…

The weather was gradually becoming hot and stuffy, especially since they entered June. The entire city Z practically became a gigantic steamer basket. Underneath the scorching sun, the towering commerce building was refracting a dazzling radiance.

In the upper management meeting room of Qi Kai Corporation, all of Qi Kai’s top management were gathered for an important meeting.

The person who sat at the main seat was Qi Kai’s person in power, Qi Qiming, while the seats beside him were occupied by Qi Kai’s shareholders and Vice Presidents. All the seats were filled at that moment with Gu Lingsha seated beside Qi Qiming.

This was a very important upper management meeting for Qi Kai to discuss the company’s future five-year plans, so the entire company’s upper management was called to take part in it. Even Xi Xinyi was there.

Even though Xi Xiaye had become an abandoned p.a.w.n, based on her own hard work, Yueying was now running smoothly. With her few movies that were released and had done excellently at the box office, she managed to make a comeback, so in Qi Kai, she more or less had a firm standing and influence. Besides that, another one of Qi Kai’s shareholders, Vice President Yue Hai, was her uncle!

At the moment, inside the wide and comfortable meeting room, it was very quiet. The people who were joining the meeting had almost all arrived, and it was less than three minutes to the start of the meeting. Qi Qiming and Gu Lingsha were both flipping through the materials in hand. Beside Gu Lingsha were two other men from the Hui Gu Corporation in black suits delegated to understand the situation.

Qi Qiming chatted for a bit with Gu Lingsha and subconsciously looked towards her wrist. He realized that it was almost time, then he set aside the doc.u.ment and looked up, yet when he looked at an empty seat not too far away from him on the left, his expression darkened.

Beside him, the head secretary who was skilled at observing body language immediately noticed that Qi Qiming did not look very pleased. He quickly bent down and whispered into Qi Qiming’s ear, “CEO Qi, that’s Master Qi’s seat. When I came over, I already saw him in his office. He should be rushing over right now.”

Qi Qiming’s face clouded over even more as a grim coldness flashed in his eyes. He was about to show his power off when there was the sound of footsteps from outside.

Bam!

The tightly shut meeting room door was pushed open. Everyone looked over together, and saw a dark blue figure entering their sight!

Dressed in a dark blue tailored tuxedo, his handsome face had a devilishly charming smile while his hands were leisurely stuck in his pockets. He had a doc.u.ment gripped with his underarm, and there was evil energy radiating all over him. Who else could it be if not Second Master Qi?

Behind him was Yang Sheng who stopped behind Qi Lei at the moment, feeling extremely stressed.

What a hooligan!

Qi Qiming stared at Qi Lei for quite a while as his expression sunk further, yet Qi Lei only threw him a glance of disdain before walking towards his seat unhurriedly.

Qi Qiming did not know how to vent his stomach of fury, so in the end, he could not help but growl at Qi Lei, “How can you be late at such a time? What att.i.tude is this?”

Qi Lei did not seem anxious at all. He sat down on his seat calmly and lifted a hand to take a look at the time. Then, he smiled insincerely at Qi Qiming. “It’s 8.59 a.m. right now. I’ve just recalibrated my time, so I’m not late. I just don’t understand why you look like you wished I was late, CEO Qi.”

With a few sentences, he practically made it embarra.s.sing for Qi Qiming, so Gu Lingsha had to quickly smooth things over. “Alright, alright now, Lei, Uncle Qi was just asking. He didn’t intend to target you. It’s almost time. Let’s start the meeting now!”

Gu Lingsha helped Qi Qiming with a way out, and naturally, he went along with it, but his cold and stern gaze still glared at Qi Lei. Meanwhile, Qi Lei was quite happy and relaxed without a care at all. He just pretended like he had heard and seen nothing.

Just as Mu Yuchen expected, he was right on point!

It was indeed about South River Project No. 2.

This project was a very important one for Qi Kai to make the switch in industries. Of course, such an important project could not be left for Qi Lei to manage, so Qi Lei had no way of approaching the entire process. It was only today that he finally roughly found out a bit more about the whole situation.

The tender meeting had just ended. Without a doubt, Qi Kai Corporation had won the bid this time, so when the news came back, the entire corporation was excited. The meeting today had South River Project No. 2 as the main discussion topic.

However, these things had nothing much to do with Qi Lei because right now, apart from collaborating with Glory World on South River Project No. 1 and being able to have some say about it, he probably did not have much authority to speak about other things.

Since that was the case, he was too lazy to listen. Once Qi Qiming began discussing with everyone else, he propped his head up with one hand and began to fall asleep.

Last night, he had been playing World of Warcraft with a certain master called ‘Ta Xue Liu Yun’ till midnight before he slept. This morning, he had to wake up so early, hence he was indeed quite sleepy.
