I thought Lin Miao would follow, but I didn't expect that she was very sensible. Even when Huo Zhiyan deliberately ignored her, he didn't show any displeasure. Instead, he pretended to wave goodbye to them from behind.
Most of the banquets at cocktail parties are buffet dinners. In order to maintain etiquette, the participating guests usually only eat a small amount symbolically.
According to Lu Anzhi's understanding, all he had to do was hold his breath and avoid fainting due to hypoglycemia.
You can eat at any time, but if you miss the opportunity to chat with the boss because of eating, it will be a big loss.
Fortunately, Huo Zhiyan was more humane and gave Lu Anzhi ten minutes to eat. Lu Anzhi had quick eyesight and quick hands. He could force him to take whatever he felt full, and he solved the problem of hunger like a storm.
This time, I felt instantly better.
"Hiccup~~" She tightened her belly and stuffed the last bit of bagel into her mouth gracefully: "I'm full, do you still want to go talk to the boss about something?"
"Yes, you come with me." Huo Zhiyan only ate a small piece of steak and some bread to go with it, but he was in very good spirits.
Lu Anzhi nodded, took out a small mirror and put some lipstick on herself, and unexpectedly saw Lin Miao's gloomy face in the mirror.
Lin Miao was holding a red wine glass and looking at her sideways with a fierce look in his eyes.
"Eh..." She closed the mirror and said to Huo Zhiyan with an unlucky look on her face: "That Lin Miao is working hard today. No matter how much I test her, she still can't figure it out. If someone can guide her a few times, can she really grow her brain?"
"Don't worry about her." Huo Zhiyan stood up: "Follow me."
In the following time, Lu Anzhi felt a lot more relaxed, mainly because she leaned against the big tree to enjoy the shade. With Huo Zhiyan by her side, she always felt that her pressure was suddenly reduced.
Lin Miao didn't come over to stir up trouble anymore, and Lu Anzhi became a walking tool again, smiling like a flower beside Huo Zhiyan.
At the end of the reception, the two of them were invited into a private room, along with several middle-aged men and their partners.
After entering the private room, it was time to drink tea. Although Lu Anzhi was lucky enough to get a tea cup, she found herself sitting in the middle of this group of people and couldn't even get in a word.
For the first time, she deeply realized what communication between top businessmen was.
At the same time, I also saw how huge the gap was between myself and these big guys.
These people seemed to be drinking tea and chatting, talking about life insights and what they saw and heard. It was clear that not a single word was related to business, but everything they said seemed to be inseparable from business.
What amazed Lu Anzhi even more was Huo Zhiyan. He was good-natured, neither humble nor arrogant. He could accurately guess the other person's thoughts with every word, and then skillfully resolve all problems.
Lu Anzhi hung her fingers on the teacup, but her eyes were secretly following Huo Zhiyan's every word and action.
He laughed and talked happily, sometimes lowering himself, sometimes not giving in. The seemingly casual social interaction was actually not simple at all.
Unknowingly, Lu Anzhi seemed to have met a brand new Huo Zhiyan, who was different from the Huo Zhiyan who always had a straight face and always lived in the shadow of his childhood.
Today, he is generous and confident, and his face is filled with yearning for success and new things. It turns out that he also has such a passionate side, but he has never shown it in front of himself.
Lu Anzhi looked away and drank tea silently.
But thoughts began to surge in her heart. If, one day, she could reach such a height, could she be as powerful as Huo Zhiyan?
…
After the cocktail party, it was obvious that Huo Zhiyan was in a good mood. Perhaps the conversation in the box gave him a new vision for the future development of the company, which temporarily diluted the farce caused by Lin Miao.
On the way back in the car, Li Jiu began to report the situation to him.
"Boss, there is indeed a problem with Crohn's administrative director. Fortunately, we discovered it early, otherwise the project would probably not be negotiated today."
Lu Anzhi, whose eyes were out of focus when he heard the words "Cron", came back to his senses instantly, leaned on the back of the chair in the front row and asked: "Brother Li, are you saying there is something wrong with that Zhou Li?"
"Yes, that's him." Li Jiu tilted his head: "Yes, I almost forgot that he and I are college classmates."
Lu Anzhi hummed and continued to ask: "Then what did he commit? He won't go to jail, right?"
"That's not true." Li Jiu explained: "Because the boss got the information early, he has not committed a crime yet. He was just fired."
"Oh~" Lu Anzhi nodded meaningfully, turned his back and started gossiping again: "Brother Li, do you still remember that Zhou Li and Wanwan were actually engaged."
"oops!"
Li Jiu suddenly braked and almost overturned the two ancestors in the back row. He held the steering wheel with both hands and his eyes widened: "I almost forgot about this!"
Lu Anzhi was puzzled: "What's wrong?"
But Huo Zhiyan, who was sitting in the back, suddenly spoke: "If you had remembered earlier, you should have been more ruthless, right?"
Li Jiu restarted the car angrily: "If it's necessary, I should take action later to get the evidence and get him in, so as not to..."
Halfway through, he stopped again.
Lu Anzhi continued to be puzzled: "What can be saved?"
Huo Zhiyan lowered his eyes and laughed: "Save that person from pestering Su Wanwan again."
Lu Anzhi was stunned for a long time and didn't understand: "What do you mean? Zhou Li is entangled with Wanwan. What does it have to do with Brother Li? Brother Li, are you also a relative of hers?"
Li Jiu's face turned red and he kept clearing his throat: "No, no, young lady, don't listen to the boss's nonsense."
Huo Zhiyan looked calm and said no more. His eyes flashed across Lu Anzhi's absent-minded face. He turned his head but the corners of his lips raised uncontrollably.
This woman is an idiot when it comes to the relationship between men and women.
In fact, one can't blame Lu Anzhi for having a brain short-circuit. Her whole mind was not here. She sat in the car in a daze for a while, and finally waited until the conversation between Li Jiu and Huo Zhiyan was over.
She emboldened herself and stretched out her index finger to point at the man next to her who was closing his eyes and concentrating: "Um... Huo Zhiyan, can you... teach me how to do business?"
Huo Zhiyan raised his eyes: "What did you say?"
Lu Anzhi quickly changed the subject: "It's nothing, just pretend I didn't say anything."
"..."
…
The next day, the first thing Lu Anzhi did when he returned to the garage was to ask Li Jiu to come over and fill the entire factory with cameras.
It turns out that Li Jiu's old business, in addition to working as a bodyguard, also opened an information network company. On the surface, it provided information services, but in fact it specialized in raising a large number of network hackers.
After Lu Anzhi heard the news, he couldn't help but click his tongue. No wonder the 800-page PPT was so detailed.
It turns out there's a whole company operating behind it.
Therefore, the cameras installed by him are all very high-end and smart. Remote control and face following are all basic operations. The lenses are all ultra-high definition without exception, and every detail can be captured clearly.
The camera was installed for a day and the attic was renovated. Tian Yufei went straight here after being discharged from the hospital.
Qingbao was a little scared at first, but when she saw that the uncles in the factory were very enthusiastic, she became mingled with everyone soon.
In order to say goodbye to the past, Tian Yufei changed her phone number and changed the door locks of her old house. Her only worry was that Su Liyao might harass her parents and children.
But some things have to be faced after all. The divorce agreement has been sent to Su Liyao's work. Whatever will happen next, she has to face it calmly.
Lu Anzhi smiled and hugged her, and stayed in the factory to stay with her and the two babies for one night. After the children fell asleep, the two sat side by side by the bed and chatted for a long time, just like they did in college.
The future is always full of uncertainty. Who doesn’t rush forward?
