Chapter 466 Why isn't she acting according to the script?

Shi Nian smiled and turned her head: "Grandpa, I just want to collect it."

My father died young, and apart from the things he left behind at the Lu family, he didn't have many other belongings.

"Making it into a specimen wouldn't be bad either," Shi Nian continued.

Old Zhao carefully observed Shi Nian's expression.

I realized she seemed to be serious.

Although Shi Nian didn't mention Shi Yichen at all.

But after thinking about it carefully, Old Zhao understood, but even after understanding, he still disliked Shi Yichen!

I also dislike Shi Yichen's daughter!

"It's just a potted plant, it's about to die, so take it back. I'm not that stingy!" Old Zhao said indifferently.

"Thank you, sir," Shi Nian said with a smile, then walked to the potted plant and picked it up.

Then he bowed slightly and said, "Goodbye, old man."

Then they left.

They've left?

What?

He thought Shi Nian was going to stay here.

Having learned from a gathering that Shi Nian possessed three-tenths of Shi Yichen's abilities, he prepared a whole host of things, waiting for Shi Nian to arrive.

He made his move as soon as Shi Nian came in today.

Seeing Shi Nian completely bewildered by him made him feel quite pleased.

But she left before she'd had enough fun?

He told her to leave, and she actually left?

Old Zhao scratched his head.

Should we bring her back?

No, that's too embarrassing. He was the one who made her leave.

They even said they wouldn't need to come anymore.

No, didn't Shi Nian just say she would visit again next time?

Haha, they'll definitely come back in a few days, bringing either a revived plant or a new one.

That must be it!

...

On the other side, Shi Nian, carrying the potted plant, left the Zhao family building with Xiao Yu.

Xiaoyu looked at the outfit and felt it was a bit strange.

Shi Nian was wearing pointed high heels and a suit at the moment.

Holding a half-dead plant in your arms?

"Sister Nian, what's wrong?" Xiaoyu asked immediately.

“I asked Grandpa Zhao for it,” Shi Nian said, then added, “Xiaoyu, do you know where we can save it?”

Xiaoyu thought for a moment, then fiddled with her phone again.

“There is a place,” Xiaoyu said.

"Drive me there," Shi Nian said with a smile.

"Okay." Xiaoyu immediately took action.

The two of them made several turns and finally arrived at a small alley.

“This is the shop my childhood friend’s mom owns. I just asked them, and they said I could take a look.”

Shi Nian nodded and carried the potted plant inside.

...

Zhao's Building.

Old Zhao's office.

"Shi Nian took the potted plant to treat it," the secretary said.

Old Zhao nodded. Very good, everything is under control.

A few days later, the secretary came to update Old Man Zhao with the latest news: "Chairman, our people went to that store to inquire and said that the plant has been saved and Shi Nian has already taken it away."

Old Zhao nodded in satisfaction.

Great, next she brought the potted plant over to him so he could see how she had brought it to life.

He needs to quickly memorize a few sales pitches so that he can fool Shi Nian completely.

He just loved seeing that expression on her face!

But no matter how long he waited, the time still didn't come.

Was something held you up?

Thinking it over, Old Zhao pressed the intercom.

The secretary came in immediately.

"Chairman, is there anything I can help you with?" the secretary asked.

"Help me find out what Shi Nian has been up to lately," Old Zhao said.

"yes."

The secretary immediately sprang into action.

Shi Nian didn't try to hide anything, and soon the secretary returned.

"Chairman, this is what Shi Nian has been doing recently." The secretary handed the tablet to Old Man Zhao and said, "It mainly involves the daily management of Yi Shi, wedding preparations, and the welcoming and sending off of guests after Shi Nian became famous."

Old Zhao glanced at the tablet.

It's not busy at all.

After thinking for a moment, Old Zhao said to his secretary, "Make preparations, I'm going to Yishi."

"Yes," the secretary replied.

...

During the game of chess.

Shi Nian was sitting in his office.

Having just finished dealing with work, Huo Yanmo sent her several sets of pictures, asking for her opinion on which ones to include at the wedding.

Just as Shi Nian was making her selection, there was a knock on the door.

"Mr. Shi, Old Master Zhao is here to visit," Xiaoyu said.

Shi Nian put down what she was holding and stood up to greet him.

"Grandpa," Shi Nian said with a smile.

"Hmm," Old Zhao replied.

Shi Nian came out and led Grandpa Zhao to the sofa on the side, while asking Xiao Yu to make some tea.

Old Zhao sat on the sofa, looking left and right, taking in the layout of Shi Nian's office.

The design style is simple and gentle, without much clutter.

only……

Grandpa Zhao saw two things on Shi Nian's table.

He stood up.

Shi Nian offered to help him up, but the old man waved his hand, saying he didn't need help.

He went over using his cane.

"This old fellow actually came back to life," Old Zhao said, pointing to the potted plant that Shi Nian had taken away last time.

Shi Nian smiled and nodded, saying, "Xiao Yu's childhood friend's mother opened a shop. Xiao Yu took me there. She's very capable; she saved him in just a few days."

"Xiaoyu's childhood friend's mother?" Old Zhao repeated, this was indeed a bit of a misunderstanding.

Just then, Xiaoyu brought in tea.

Shi Nian took the tea from Xiao Yu's hand and smiled, "This is Xiao Yu, my secretary."

"Xiaoyu, the old man was just marveling at your childhood friend's mother's skill in saving this potted plant." Shi Nian looked at Xiaoyu.

Xiaoyu suddenly realized, and said embarrassedly, "We just happened to run into each other, so I took President Shi with me."

"Chairwoman Zhao likes flowers and plants? Should I give her her contact information?" Xiaoyu said.

Old Zhao nodded, gestured to his secretary, and the two of them went outside together.

After closing the office door, Shi Nian went to pour tea for Old Zhao.

Old Zhao's gaze, however, lingered on another object.

It was a picture frame, but there were two photos inside.

One of the photos is a group photo of Shi Nian, Huo Yanmo, and Sisi.

There is also an old photo of Shi Nian, Zheng Shuhui, and Shi Yichen. In the old photo, Shi Nian is still a little girl.

The two photos are placed side by side in the same frame.

Shi Nian had already poured the tea. Turning around, she saw Old Master Zhao looking at the photo, his eyes filled with a hint of reminiscence.

Just then, Old Man Zhao suddenly realized something and glanced at Shi Nian.

Shi Nian was also looking at him.

Old Zhao suddenly felt a little guilty, so he pointed to the potted plant next to him.

"If it's cured, I'll take it back with me," said Old Zhao.

Shi Nian's expression changed immediately, and she quickly came over to protect the potted plant.

"Grandpa, didn't you give it to me? How can you ask for it back?"

Old Zhao's lips parted slightly; he was stunned.

no……

That's not how the script was written!

It shouldn't be that he saw the potted plant had survived, then pretended to appreciate it and nodded, saying he wanted to take it back, and Shi Nian went along with it, letting him take it back and also asking for some praise.

At this point, he could say, "Just as I thought, you only wanted this potted plant to please me!"

Why isn't she acting according to the script?
