Chapter 21 - Ask Her To Come!
“Yes, I poured this for you.” Hong Xin Rui smiled sweetly at Wang Shen Ze as she leaned forward to pick up the glass of milk and passed it to him with both hands.
“Thank you”, Wang Shen Ze fell into a deep thought as he reached out his hand to take the glass cup from her.
Not many people know about his habit of drinking milk after dinner.
If he had to point out the people who knows, it would only be his personal nanny at the Wang Residence, and his first love.
Even if someone happened to find out about this habit of his...
But exactly three quarters filled?
He definitely could not ignore this precision!
This glass of milk was enough for him to remove his suspicions of Hong Xin Rui.
However, even if she is his first love, he realised that she is no longer the girl for him.
But since he has made a promise to her previously, he would still fulfil it and take care of her.
“Lin Wen Xin... it’s a pity that you can only just stay back and watch as I slowly snatch everything away from you!”
Hong Xin Rui thought to herself as she crossed her arms and smiled with a glint in her eyes.
...
Few days later, at Lin Corporation
“Wen Xin, hurry up and pack your things, otherwise we will be late for the meeting!” Her colleague sitting next to her gave a nudge, while also busy preparing to leave.
“Okay got it! You can leave without me first! I’ll catch up with you soon!”
Lin Wen Xin quickly added her final finishing touches on her design drafts.
It was not like she had to submit her design drafts today but she has always liked to be well-prepared and be able to showcase her designs to clients readily.
“Three more minutes to the start of the meeting! I better leave now if I don’t want to be late!”
Lin Wen Xin hurriedly slot the design drafts into her file and left the place with her bag.
“I’m sorry, please make way!.... Excuse me, I’m sorry!...”
She pushed her way through the busy corridor and finally made it into the large conference room.
Everyone in the room are busy preparing for the important meeting and not a single person is not assigned with a task to do.
This of course includes Lin Wen Xin as well, who has just arrived and barely got to breathe for a second.
“Wen Xin! There’s a stack of printed documents at the far end of the table! Help me to distribute them and place a set in front of each of the seat!”
“Here! Wen Xin! I need your help to carry these over to the other side!”
“Can you help me to prepare coffee and tea and place them on the movable trolley at the back? Thanks a lot Wen Xin!”
The endless list of requests finally came to an end and the meeting soon started after everyone settled down at their seats.
Unlike the previous team meetings, Sister Fei Yi sat down at the side, leaving the two middle seats at the foot of the table, empty.
“As you all know, today is the first time that we are meeting our client as a team for this big project.”
Sister Fei Yi turned her head and made a quick eye contact with every single person in the team, “I expect everyone to give their best performance in the next few months!”
“This time, we will be working with DT Holdings on this advertisement project. It is not going to be easy as it is our first time designing sportswear that has to be weatherproof and fashionable at the same time...”
Sister Fei Yi continued to brief the team on the details of the collaboration.
Lin Wen Xin looked at Sister Fei Yi with disbelief, “Wait... Did I hear correctly? DT Holdings?!... Then wouldn’t he...”
Sure enough, the meeting was soon interrupted with two knocks and the door immediately opened from the outside.
“Sister Fei Yi, they are here.” The company’s receptionist personally ushered them from the ground floor to the conference room.
Wang Shen Ze walked towards the centre of the table while Yi Fan followed behind.
The entire team immediately stood up while Sister Fei Yi quickly walked towards Wang Shen Ze.
“President Wang”, the whole team echoed after Sister Fei Yi as soon as she greeted him.
Sister Fei Yi then added, “It’s our pleasure to meet with you today, please have a seat.”
Wang Shen Ze simply nodded his head lightly and everyone sat down together with him.
It came as a huge surprise to Lin Wen Xin that she is participating in a project with DT Holdings.
Does this mean that she could get to see him more often?
“This is going to be so exciting!” She could no longer contain her contentment with this arrangement.
Lin Wen Xin finally got to meet Wang Shen Ze’s eyes and she could not help but give him a wide grin with anticipation in her eyes.
However, her exhilaration was short-lived as Wang Shen Ze did not even bother to acknowledge her existence and simply focused on the screen that was at the front.
Yi Fan who was sitting beside Wang Shen Ze had caught this scene and was utterly confused.
What is this situation now?
Yi Fan continued to dart his eyes back and forth between them as he thought to himself.
“Something weird is going on... Usually such small meetings will be attended by one of our executives.”
“But President Wang actually asked me to cancel an important foreign investment meeting that was pre-planned three months in advance, just to attend this?”
Yi Fan really wanted to slap his face now to check if he was actually dreaming!
Initially he thought that Wang Shen Ze is coming to this meeting because Lin Wen Xin is here.
However, judging by his reaction earlier, it does not seem to be the case?
Yi Fan is about to cry from his endless analysis that is leading to nowhere!
On the other hand, Lin Wen Xin saw that Wang Shen Ze had ignored her.
She looked down with embarrassment as she thought to herself, “He doesn’t even like me in the first place, why will he publicly acknowledge our relationship right?”
“Lin Wen Xin, get a hold of yourself and focus on your work!”
She subconsciously nodded her head twice as a form of motivation to herself and started to seriously jot down notes from the discussion.
What was unknown to her was Wang Shen Ze’s secretive gaze that was observing her every action.
This discussion was mainly led by Yi Fan and Sister Fei Yi, and it prolonged for another half an hour.
“This meeting is a complete waste of my precious time!”
A cold and dominant voice suddenly resounded in the large room, causing a shiver down everyone’s spine.
Everyone, including Yi Fan and Sister Fei Yi kept their heads down, not daring to meet his eyes.
“Shouldn’t the Lin Corporation send someone to our company to make it easier for us to pass on our feedback?”
“Or are you expecting us to continue to make such useless trips here?”
Sister Fei Yi quickly responded to Wang Shen Ze, “I’m sorry President Wang, we definitely will not dare to do that! I’ll arrange for someone to move to your headquarters from tomorrow onwards.” Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Wang Shen Ze nodded his head with satisfaction and replied, “Good!”
“Ask her to come!”
