On the last day, Feng Zhiyi and Lu Lingxiao were so busy they barely had time to breathe.
Almost every minute and every second was meticulously planned.
Busy selling off stocks, busy scouting the black market for bargains, busy confirming routes, busy accompanying two elders to banquets, and busy moving books and materials from the professor's study.
In the afternoon, Mr. Song also took them to visit two old friends. They brought out about twenty copies of research data from the two gentlemen's homes. These were all handwritten copies, as the gentlemen had copied them over the past few days.
Very thoughtful.
With everything arranged, it was already evening.
7 PM.
Inside the Left Bank Café.
When Feng Zhiyi and Lu Lingxiao walked in, Lan Yifeng and Guan Mingcheng were already waiting for them inside.
Upon seeing the two distinguished guests, Lan Yifeng immediately stood up to greet them. He warmly said, "Miss Feng, Mr. Lu, please have a seat. What kind of coffee would you like? Like last time, one mocha and one latte, would that be alright?"
"Okay, these two will do."
Feng Zhiyi smiled and agreed, then sat down with Lu Lingxiao on the two empty seats.
As soon as they sat down, Guan Mingcheng asked, "Miss Feng, Mr. Lu, have you eaten yet? If not, let me invite you to dinner."
"Thank you, we've already eaten."
After Feng Zhiyi finished speaking, she couldn't help but laugh and tease him again, "Mr. Guan, my husband and I don't eat people, so why do you always seem so nervous when you see us? Why is that?"
"Huh? I...I...I..."
She shouldn't have said anything, because once she did, Guan Mingcheng became so nervous that he started fawning over her.
Could he say that Mr. Lu had too strong an aura?
For some reason, he would feel nervous whenever he saw Mr. Lu, especially when he met his hawk-like black eyes.
Perhaps this is the power and influence of those in positions of authority?
“Puff—”
Feng Zhiyi couldn't help but speak up, mainly because she realized that this future top assistant was currently just a nervous and blushing young man.
Guan Mingcheng's already slightly flushed face turned even redder when she smiled like that.
Feng Zhiyi stopped teasing him and got down to business, "Mr. Guan, what's your decision?"
"I've made up my mind. I've decided to resign and return to China to work for you!"
When serious matters were mentioned, Guan Mingcheng's expression quickly returned to normal.
He said seriously, "Although Paris is very prosperous and staying here is indeed a good choice, I have thought it over carefully. In my current company, it will be very difficult for me to get ahead!"
Upon hearing Guan Mingcheng's answer, Feng Zhiyi's impression of him improved considerably.
She immediately asked him, "Are you sure? No regrets?"
"You should know that my company hasn't opened any stores yet; it's just a name in name only. If things don't go well, it might be difficult for you to get back to your current company."
“No regrets!”
Guan Mingcheng replied confidently, "Since Lan Yifeng believes you are our benefactor, and Lan Yiheng is even willing to return to China to work for you, why can't I take a gamble?"
Even if you lose the bet, you can always start over.
Is he, a grown man, afraid of losing?
Moreover, like Lan Yifeng, he had confidence in Feng Zhiyi and believed that she would lead them to success!
Both Feng Zhiyi and Lu Lingxiao can tell whether someone is lying just by looking into their eyes, but it's clear that Guan Mingcheng was speaking from the heart.
Then Feng Zhiyi asked him sharply, "If I handed a company over to you to manage, are you confident that you can manage it well?"
"Could it be that you think I'm the one who recruited you back to China and got you to switch jobs and join the Feng Group, so you're just trying to get by or suppress your employees?"
"Won't!"
Guan Mingcheng immediately shook his head, then said earnestly, "I will only work harder, manage the company well, do the things you entrust to me well and implement them effectively, and try my best to do them better and better."
Upon hearing this, Feng Zhiyi smiled with satisfaction.
She smiled and extended her hand to Guan Mingcheng, "Mr. Guan, welcome to join my team and become a member of our Feng Group. Let's witness the company's growth together!"
Upon hearing this, Guan Mingcheng's eyes instantly crinkled with a smile.
He immediately stood up and shook hands with Feng Zhiyi. "Thank you for your trust, Miss Feng, and thank you for providing me with a better platform for development. I will definitely work hard and live up to your expectations and kindness!"
“Okay, then you can go back to China with Lan Yifeng and the others. Lan Yifeng has my home address. Once you get back, just have him bring you here to find me.”
After Feng Zhiyi finished speaking, she glanced at the time.
"Okay, I understand."
Guan Mingcheng readily agreed, his eyes crinkling with joy.
I was so excited that I started dancing.
He can finally be colleagues with Lan Yifeng again. From now on, the three of them can sit together and chat about everything under the sun, including life and the future!
"Should we send you back?"
When she asked, Feng Zhiyi and Lu Lingxiao had already stood up. She picked up her backpack and prepared to leave.
Guan Mingcheng hurriedly waved his hand, "No need, no need, Miss Feng, you and Mr. Lu go first. Yi Feng and I will sit for a while longer. This coffee shop is not far from where we are staying. We can just take a taxi back later."
Feng Zhiyi nodded slightly and left the coffee shop with Lu Lingxiao.
Only after the two of them left the coffee shop and walked away did Guan Mingcheng dare to laugh out loud.
He shook Lan Yifeng's arm vigorously, his mouth agape with joy. "Yifeng, I'm so excited! I'm incredibly excited! We can finally work at the same company again!"
"Are you sure it's just the two of us?" Lan Yifeng glanced at him, but couldn't help but smile.
Guan Mingcheng immediately changed his tune, laughing heartily, "Yes, yes, and Yiheng too, it's the three of us, the three of us, hahaha..."
Lan Yifeng shook his head as he watched him laughing so hard he almost fell over, but he was in an exceptionally good mood.
With a good job, even Yiheng's condition has been brought under control. According to the attending physician, Yiheng will be able to recover and be discharged from the hospital in another month.
Now the huge weight on Lan Yifeng's heart is gone.
After returning to China, he was able to work with peace of mind.
Lan Yifeng and Guan Mingcheng stayed in the coffee shop until after 8 p.m. before getting up and leaving to return to their lodgings.
——
It was 11 p.m. that night.
Less than 200 meters from Song Rui's house, Lu Lingxiao parked the car on the side of the road, opened the car door, and then got out of the car with Feng Zhiyi.
