During the day she was gentle, and at night she was passionate; that was Lu Yanzhi's evaluation of her.
However, when Han Wei said she had less than six months to live, Lu Yanzhi did not ...
Chapter 370 Wish Me Good Luck
Looking at Huo Yanmo's relaxed appearance, Shi Nian remembered what Xiaoyu had just said.
She couldn't help but smile.
"What?" Huo Yanmo asked curiously.
“I suddenly understand why Xiaoyu didn’t recognize you,” Shi Nian said.
Huo Yanmo was full of questions.
“Think about it, normally you carry a bunch of jewels around you all day, and your hair is always perfectly combed. You look like a mature and reliable big boss. Of course, no one would recognize you like this now,” Shi Nian said.
Shi Nian also pointed to the clothes on his body.
Normally, they wear things like gemstone cufflinks, gemstone brooches, and custom-tailored suits, red-soled leather shoes, and so on...
Although Huo Yanmo appears to be more gentle and refined, he is also adorned with jewels.
It's normal for someone in the gemstone business to be in that line of work.
Huo Yanmo smiled and reached out to pinch her cheek.
Shi Nian patted him and glared at him.
Time passed slowly.
After changing into more comfortable clothes and slippers, Shi Nian continued her previous work.
Everyone was busy, constantly maintaining contact with people overseas.
Huo Yanmo was also helping out; everyone was working hard.
As dawn broke, everything was finally settled.
Everyone else in the company was already lying down and resting.
Huo Yanmo brought a folding bed earlier, and now it comes in handy.
Shi Nian and Huo Yanmo were sitting in Shi Nian's office.
Shi Nian was making a final confirmation when Huo Yanmo opened the door, came in, and sat down beside her.
"Will it be tiring?" Huo Yanmo asked softly.
"It's alright," Shi Nian said, leaning on Huo Yanmo's shoulder.
Huo Yanmo didn't say much, he just sat there quietly.
Shi Nian finished reading the last page and put the document aside.
Outside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, the sun is slowly rising.
Shi Nian watched like this, leaning on Huo Yanmo's shoulder, feeling a sense of peace.
In the blink of an eye, Shi Nian fell asleep.
Shi Nian lowered her hand, and Huo Yanmo, sensing her movement, looked down.
Seeing that she was asleep, he didn't move her.
Looking at the time, I realized she didn't have much time left to sleep, so I just let her lean against me like that.
...
On the other side.
Lu Xinyi had just gotten up when she received the latest news.
Right now, she's on the phone with her subordinates.
"A 30 million yuan order?" Lu Xinyi leaned back on the sofa, sipping her coffee. "Then why are they looking for investment?"
What did the other person say?
"Like this?" A playful smile flashed in Lu Xinyi's eyes. "Such a big pit?"
"No wonder they didn't dare come to the Lu family to find us before, but went to that conference instead."
She laughed heartily, then said, "Does Shi Nian know?"
"They probably don't know," the other party said. "Our people went to check, and the lights at Yishi were on all night. They're rushing to finish something; they're probably planning to collaborate with Yuyan."
Lu Xinyi immediately stood up.
She paced back and forth in the room, constantly moving.
She wouldn't invest in such a disastrous project, but Shi Nian bet her entire fortune and even had to borrow from Huo Yanmo. Once the truth comes out, everyone will clearly see who is stronger and who is weaker.
At that time, not only will Lin Xuan see that she is better than Shi Nian, but even Huo Yanmo and Lu Yanzhi will see that Shi Nian is just a pretty face.
The more she thought about it, the more smug Lu Xinyi felt.
"Listen to me," Lu Xinyi said to the person on the other end of the phone, "We're going to participate today, and then..."
Meanwhile, on the other side...
Young Master Fu listened to his subordinate's report.
"Are you sure Shi Nian is interested in Yu Yan?" he said, glancing at his secretary.
"Yes," the secretary nodded and handed him the document.
"Fine." He looked at the document and chuckled coldly. "I'll make her beg me to let her go."
...
Time passed slowly.
Shi Nian suddenly woke up.
She opened her eyes; it was already broad daylight outside. She squinted hard and quickly checked the time.
"It's not time yet," a familiar voice said.
Shi Nian looked up and saw Huo Yanmo.
She fell asleep leaning against him.
This made her a little embarrassed. She got up and rubbed his shoulder, afraid that she had made his shoulder numb from sleeping.
"It's good that you're up," Huo Yanmo said. "I had Xiao Xu bring you some clothes. You can go wash up and change so you can go to Yu Yan later."
"Okay." Shi Nian thought for a moment and then got up.
She went to wash up, and Huo Yanmo came out and woke Xiaoyu up.
Xiaoyu saw the time and immediately got to work.
Huo Yanmo didn't call anyone else, but just asked Xiao Xu to order some breakfast.
The sun slowly rose.
Shi Nian and Xiao Yu were ready. After thinking for a moment, Shi Nian went to wake up a few of the people.
She whispered to them, "We're going to Yuyan now. Please keep an eye on things. If anything happens, wake them up too. Yanmo bought breakfast, so get up and eat something."
After receiving a response, Shi Nian nodded to Huo Yanmo and then left with Xiao Yu.
There were many cars on the road.
Shi Nian and Xiao Yu were both holding coffee.
Xiaoyu was still yawning.
Shi Nian was looking out the window.
The sky was blue and the sun was shining brightly.
It's a good omen.
We arrived at the parking lot at Yuyan.
Before Shi Nian got out of the car, someone knocked on her car door.
Shi Nian opened the car window and saw Li Tongruo.
She thought for a moment, then opened the car door and got out.
"What's wrong?" Shi Nian asked.
Li Tongruo led her to a secluded corner nearby.
"Are you really going to vote for Yuyan?" Li Tongruo asked seriously.
"Mm." Shi Nian nodded.
Li Tongruo frowned in disagreement.
"Do you know that Qin Zhihuan is no longer coming?" Li Tongruo said.
“I don’t know that,” Shi Nianzhen replied sincerely.
“I thought you would understand things better after talking with my grandfather yesterday, but I didn’t expect you to…” Li Tongruo shook her head helplessly.
Shi Nian lowered her eyes slightly and said, "Ruo Ruo, thank you and Grandpa Li, but I have my own plans."
"Believe me, I'm not that kind of reckless person," Shi Nian said. "I'm not that stupid to jump into a trap knowing the other party is setting up."
"To be honest, I wouldn't insist on this project unless it was absolutely necessary."
Li Tongruo gave Shi Nian a deep look and said, "Is it because of Yu Yan's order? The company behind it?"
Shi Nian did not answer.
“Shi Nian, my grandfather has already made it very clear,” Li Tongruo said. “Living well is more important than anything else. Don’t go looking into your father’s affairs anymore.”
Shi Nian sighed deeply and reached out to hug Li Ruotong.
They didn't speak, but they both understood what the other meant.
Shi Nian quickly released Li Ruotong.
She didn't say much, just nodded.
"Wish me luck?" Shi Nian said.
In the end, Li Tongruo nodded and patted Shi Nian on the shoulder.
"Good luck," Li Tongruo said.
