Another half an hour passed. The assistant kicked Lu Jinnian once more, but he continued to stare at the contract without the slightest reaction. It was as though he was treating everything around him as air.
The two partners in front of him had clearly become impatient.
The assistant coughed heavily, but seeing that Lu Jinnian still hadn't said a word, he could only force a smile and say to the two partners, "I'm really sorry, how about this, we'll take this proposal back to look at first. Once we have a conclusion, I'll call the two of you. What do you think?"
The two of them looked at each other, and one of them nodded. "Alright."
The assistant hurriedly got up and politely sent the two partners off. When he returned, Lu Jinnian's gaze had already shifted from the proposal to stare out the window with a cold expression.
This was already the fifth time in half a month that something like this had happened. He had clearly met up with the partners to discuss a collaboration, but after they met, Mr. Lu started to remain silent. No matter what the other party said, no matter how much the assistant reminded him, he didn't react at all.
To be exact, ever since Miss Qiao and Mr. Lu had broken off their relationship, Mr. Lu had become quiet. In the past, Mr. Lu was a man of few words, but now it was so few that it made one's hair stand on end. Many times in the company meetings, he couldn't say a single word. Even when he finally managed to open his mouth, it was just a few simple words like "meeting" or "meeting adjourned."
Mr. Lu had always been an antisocial person, and now, he was even more antisocial. Sometimes, he would go to parties that he had to attend, but every time he went, he would find a quiet place to stay alone.
His separation with Miss Qiao didn't seem to affect him at all. His temper and emotions were normal, but it was obvious that he had become more antisocial, more difficult to approach.
Quite a number of people in the company noticed his strange behavior. Some said that Mr. Lu had become even more aloof recently, while others said that Mr. Lu had become even more arrogant. However, only he knew that he had lost someone to talk to, so he didn't even want to talk anymore.
The assistant shook his head, walking forward to look at the proposal. He scanned the page where Lu Jinnian was in a daze, word by word. In the end, his gaze stopped on the word "good". So it was like that... It was a common word, but because it was in the woman's name, every time he saw it, he would be like that...
The assistant sighed softly, put away the proposal, and said in a low voice, "Mr. Lu, it's getting late. Do you want to go?"
Lu Jinnian was silent for a moment, then he nodded and stood up. The assistant hurriedly called for the waiter to settle the bill and followed Lu Jinnian out.
In the car, Lu Jinnian still didn't say a word. He sat alone in the backseat with his phone in his hand. Who knew what he was looking at. He stared blankly for a long time before abruptly raising his head. In a cold and indifferent voice, he said, "To Mian Xiu Garden."
After Qiao Anhao moved out of Mian Xiu Garden, Lu Jinnian had never returned. Madam Chen had originally hired him because of Qiao Anhao, but she had already given a large sum of money to fire him.
The assistant froze for a moment, not saying a word. He followed Lu Jinnian's instructions and changed the route.
