The receptionist was very good at reading people's expressions. She sized up Shuxin and saw that she was well-dressed, had a calm temperament, and was polite. She even greeted her with a smile. There was no reason for the receptionist to refuse such a person's request.
"Please wait a moment."
Shuxin nodded with a smile. "Thank you!"
The receptionist dialed Song Li's number. When Song Li picked up the phone, he was obviously very happy. Even through the phone, the receptionist could hear the excitement in his voice. She guessed that this lady must be a very important client.
After hanging up the phone, the receptionist's smile became even brighter. "Secretary Song will be down soon. Please follow me to the reception room to wait."
"Okay." Shuxin followed the receptionist to the reception room. The receptionist poured a glass of water for Shuxin and said a few polite words before leaving.
Not long after, Song Li arrived.
"Hello, Miss Shu." When Song Li saw Shuxin, his eyes flashed with surprise. The three times he saw Shuxin, she was in a sorry state. The first time was when she was drunk, the second time was when she was chased on the street in a hospital gown, and the third time was when she was soaking wet and squatting by the roadside crying.
It was the first time Song Li saw Shuxin dressed so formally. His eyes lit up, but he thought in his heart, "This looks very good with Huo Yanqing!"
Shuxin stood up and responded with a smile, "Hello, Mr. Song."
"You're welcome. Please take a seat." Song Li sat down opposite Shuxin. "Miss Shu, are you here to deliver the umbrella? That umbrella belongs to The Fifth Lord. He has never liked to pass through other people's hands. It's better if you hand it to him personally. He's in a meeting. Please wait a moment. "
Song Li said a lot in one breath. He was afraid that Shuxin would give him the umbrella and leave. If that happened, she wouldn't even be able to see Huo Yanqing's face.
Song Li had been with Huo Yanqing for so many years, but this was the first time that he saw that Huo Yanqing was not disgusted by a woman approaching him. Therefore, no matter whether Huo Yanqing had any thoughts about Shuxin or not, Song Li did not want to let go of any chance to find a woman for Huo Yanqing.
The Old Madam was about to go crazy. The Family Huo had treated him well, so he should do something to help.
"That … I'm sorry, I forgot to bring my umbrella." Shuxin really wanted to slap herself. She had thought about returning the umbrella to Huo Yanqing last night. When she woke up in the morning, she was so focused on tidying herself that she completely forgot about the umbrella.
Song Li was stunned for a moment. Then, he smiled happily. "It's okay. I didn't bring it today. I'll come again next time. Since you're already here, why don't you have a seat before you leave? The Fifth Lord's meeting will be over soon."
Shuxin nodded and agreed.
Song Li thought that it would take a lot of effort to persuade Shuxin to stay. After all, when Huo Yanqing lent her the umbrella, she had rejected him. He did not expect her to agree so readily. Could it be that she had feelings for The Fifth Lord?
She must be. As long as a woman met The Fifth Lord, there would be no woman who would not be interested in him.
Regardless of whether it was The Fifth Lord's family background, his current achievements, or his character, appearance, and charisma, there was no one that did not make a woman's sense of beauty reach its boiling point.
Song Li began to let his imagination run wild. His heart was blooming with joy. He felt that spring was coming for The Fifth Lord.
Shuxin took a sip of water and suppressed the nervousness in her heart. "Actually, I'm here to talk to Mr. Huo about a collaboration."
"A collaboration?" Song Li was shocked. Shuxin was only a student. How could she have a collaboration with the Huo Group?
