Bai Lu already knew that she had applied for the position of design director. After all, she had graduated from SGA. She had spent more than a year on this position and had no intention of starting from scratch.
Sometimes, people had to have more confidence in themselves. Confidence could give them a 30% chance of success.
…
Bai Lu was a little dazed. At this moment, she actually thought of this sentence. This sentence — Liang Feifan had once said to her.
"… Director Bai? Director Bai? "
"…"
Wen Zhaoren stood to the side and looked at the dazed woman. He coughed softly and said, "Director Bai, hmm?"
"…"
Bai Lu quickly came back to her senses and realized that she had been dazed. She looked a little embarrassed and subconsciously raised her glasses. She quickly nodded and said, "Sorry, I …"
"Introduce yourself." Wen Zhaoren didn't seem to mind. He stepped aside and let Bai Lu stand up. "These people will be your subordinates in the future. I also hope that you can work well with them."
Bai Lu nodded and stepped forward. Her pair of black high heels complemented her fair long legs. She casually put her hands behind her back and put away all her thoughts. Her fair face had the posture of a leader. She pursed her red lips slightly and smiled at everyone. "Hello, everyone. I'm Bai Lu. I'll be working with you in the future. I hope that we can work well together."
Wen Zhaoren stood at the side and propped up his chin with one hand. He raised his eyebrows playfully.
Hmm, Liang Feifan's woman was indeed a little different. She more or less exuded the fierce aura that only that man would have.
It seemed that he hadn't suffered a loss when he had promised Liang Feifan to take her in. He had seen this woman's talent. She was very outstanding and had a good character. The most important thing was that she was in his company. To the Liang Clan, Lati had a cash cow …
The self-introductions were almost done. In fact, some people still had some reservations about Bai Lu. Although people in the architectural design industry knew that SGA was sacred, Bai Lu looked like a woman in her twenties. They hadn't even heard of her before. Now that she had suddenly become the design director, the few women looked at her with some disapproval.
However, Bai Lu didn't care. She was used to such looks.
Wen Zhaoren looked at her indifferent expression and raised his eyebrows. He admired this indifferent woman even more. He snapped his fingers. With one hand in his trouser pocket, he pointed to the office with the other. "Director Bai, come with me. I have something to tell you."
After entering Bai Lu's office, Wen Zhaoren sat on the sofa and asked Bai Lu to sit opposite him. He glanced at the woman opposite him and said, "Director Bai, I told you yesterday that I have a project to hand over to you today. However, after thinking about it, I'd better meet the partner tonight. Actually, the project isn't that complicated, but the contract isn't handled by LATI, but by the other company. We're having dinner at a hotel tonight. Why don't you come with me? After I get the contract, I'll explain the project to you. What do you think?"
Wen Zhaoren's tone carried a hint of discussion.
Bai Lu admitted that she didn't like social interactions, but she also knew that these things couldn't be avoided. Moreover, it was her first day at work. She couldn't be picky. She smiled very appropriately. "Manager Wen, you're too polite. This is what I should do. What time tonight?"
"After work."
Wen Zhaoren stood up and looked at the time on his watch. "Director Bai, you should familiarize yourself with the company's environment first. If you have any questions, you can look for me directly. My office is just beside yours. Alright, I'll make a move first." Before he left, he took another look at Bai Lu's suit. Wen Zhaoren frowned and slowly stroked his sexy thin lips with his index finger. After a while, he said, "The suit suits you very well, but you should take off your glasses."
"…"
Sorry for being late!
Bai Lu basically spent her first day at work familiarizing herself with the various businesses, projects, and operations of the company.
After graduating from university, she started working in EC. In fact, she was already used to working in the workplace. In the past year, she had experienced love, marriage, and then went to SGA in England to further her studies. It had been more than a year since she left the workplace. When she came back again, she felt a sense of familiarity. However, she didn't know why, but there was a sour feeling in her heart.
Some people, after walking back and forth, still end up at the starting point.
Some things, after changing back and forth, still seem to return to the beginning.
However, the feeling had completely changed.
In her surroundings, it wasn't that things had remained the same, but that people had changed because everything was different …
At five o 'clock, it was time to get off work. Most of the staff in the design department had left. Bai Lu prepared her things. There was a full-body mirror in her office. She wasn't sure if the previous design director had left it there because he liked to look at himself in the mirror. Bai Lu thought that since she was going to discuss the contract with Wen Zhaoren later, she would definitely have to meet someone. Hence, she walked in front of the full-body mirror and looked at herself. She tidied up her appearance and her gaze fell on the mirror. Her eyes, which were wearing glasses, were empty.
— — The suit suits you very well, but you should take off your glasses.
…
These were Wen Zhaoren's words. Did glasses not suit her?
Bai Lu shook her head. What did it matter if they suited her or not? She didn't need to deliberately make herself look outstanding. She wanted to use her abilities at work to prove that she was outstanding.
The corners of Bai Lu's mouth curved into a confident smile. She took out her makeup box and touched up her makeup briefly. Just as she put it back, she heard a knock on the door. Then she heard Wen Zhaoren's voice. "Director Bai, we can go now."
Bai Lu acknowledged and left the office. She went to the car park with Wen Zhaoren.
As they stood in the elevator, Bai Lu looked at the bright and clean walls of the elevator. She looked at Wen Zhaoren, who was standing in front of her with his head lowered. He was holding his phone and typing rapidly. She pursed her lips and her eyes flickered. She was a little surprised. This man actually knew how to play with his thumbs?
"… Erm, Manager Wen."
Bai Lu coughed lightly and called out to him.
Wen Zhaoren didn't even raise his head as he grunted in acknowledgment. "What is it?"
"I want to ask, who are the people who are discussing the contract with us today? Erm, I just want to know the other party's situation first. Manager Wen, can you tell me first? Otherwise, I'm afraid that I'll be unprepared later. After all, you're the one who brought me out. Others will see that I have the title of lati design director, but they won't be able to say anything. Will they … "
"It's okay."
Wen Zhaoren, on the other hand, seemed to trust her a lot. He typed the last word on his phone, "Arriving in 30 minutes." Then, he pressed send and put away his phone. He smirked. "Director Bai, you don't have to worry too much. I believe in your impromptu performance. If you can solve such a small problem, wouldn't it be an insult to my judgment?"
"…"
Wen Zhaoren personally drove the car to the agreed place. Bai Lu realized that it was a hotel. She made a preliminary estimation in her heart. It shouldn't be the kind of place where people would drink and socialize. This hotel was not low-class, so the quality of the people who would be discussing the contract with them would definitely not be too bad.
Someone had been waiting at the door for a long time. When he saw Wen Zhaoren get out of the car, he came out to welcome him. Bai Lu followed behind Wen Zhaoren. She only heard the man nodding respectfully to Wen Zhaoren. "Manager Wen, I'll wait for you here. Mr. Liang is upstairs in the private room …"
Bai Lu's heart suddenly trembled.
Wen Zhaoren almost subconsciously reached out his hand and made a shushing gesture. However, after a moment, he felt a little nervous. He immediately put his hand down and coughed lightly. "… Erm, I got it. Just tell me the number. We can go up by ourselves."
The assistant probably didn't know what he had said wrong. He was shocked by Wen Zhaoren's action just now. At this moment, he said a little woodenly, "… 388."
"388?" Wen Zhaoren frowned. "The third floor?"
The assistant nodded.
Wen Zhaoren turned around and glanced at the woman beside him. He realized that there was something wrong with her expression. He thought for a moment and immediately said, "Director Bai, let's go up."
Bai Lu bit her lip as she watched Wen Zhaoren walk towards the main entrance of the hotel. She thought for a moment, then braced herself and followed after him.
She must have … heard wrong, right?
It couldn't be him. Mr. Liang … Mr. Liang … Actually, this was City C, not City A. Although it was all about design, the Liang Clan's projects weren't just about design. Besides, City C and City A were quite a distance away. How could he have come here?
…
Bai Lu reached out and tapped her temples. She felt that she was probably worrying over nothing. He wasn't the only one in the world. The surname was Liang. What was there to be afraid of?
Yes, it definitely couldn't be him. It definitely couldn't be him!
As she followed Wen Zhaoren the whole way, she kept telling herself in her heart that it definitely couldn't be Liang Feifan. However, when they really reached the entrance of private room 388, her heart uncontrollably sped up again.
…
Wen Zhaoren reached out and was about to knock on the door when Bai Lu couldn't hold back anymore. She lost her composure and grabbed Wen Zhaoren's wrist.
"Director Bai?" Wen Zhaoren looked at her in surprise and pretended not to understand. "What's the matter?"
"…"
"Director Bai?"
"Manager Wen, I … I want to ask, is the person inside … is his surname Liang?"
Wen Zhaoren nodded expressionlessly. "Yes, his surname is Liang."
"…"
"What's wrong? Oh, do you think that the person inside is City A's famous Liang Feifan? "
Bai Lu's heart suddenly skipped a beat. She didn't know how to answer. No matter how she answered, it didn't seem right. She didn't want to admit her relationship with Liang Feifan. But if she didn't admit it, what was there to be nervous about?
"Director Bai, you're making me think that Liang Feifan of City A is your old flame. Could it be that you're really Liang Feifan's old flame?"
