The next day, Alice's team announced on their official Weibo account that they would hold a signing ceremony with their new partners in three days. At that time, all important members of the new project would be present, and Alice herself would also appear in public in front of the media for the first time.
This news once again caused a stir in the Beijing circle, and some people who didn't know the inside story were speculating who was so lucky to be selected by Alice to participate in the new project.
What people are most looking forward to is that everyone can see Alice's true face.
The boss has been keeping a low profile, but this time he's acting out of character. I wonder if this is a sign of something.
This matter was being discussed in full swing online. At the same time, Lu Anning also received the news and prepared to attend the signing ceremony three days later.
Although Alice promised to give Lu Anning enough time to prepare for the wedding, this did not affect the signing of the contract. Only after the contract was officially signed would the matter be considered settled. Otherwise, Lu Anning felt that it was not real.
Zhong Ling was so excited about this that she even declared that she would take a photo with Alice on the spot and then enlarge the photo and hang it in her house.
Lu An Ning laughed at her: "Then do you still want to worship it?"
"I'll consider it. Later, I can tell others that I took a photo with Professor Alice, a world-renowned medical figure, and she even drank the tea I brewed myself!"
Lu Anning smiled and shook his head. The day of signing the contract must be a busy day.
Three days later, Lu Anning, dressed in a beige suit, looked smart and capable, representing the head of Haitian Pharmaceuticals. She stood beside Tang Jingyuan, the black and white complementing each other perfectly. Facing the camera, she smiled expertly, handling the situation with ease, not inferior to those business veterans.
This caused many people to sigh that all the children from the Gu family, regardless of gender, are truly outstanding.
Speak of Cao Cao and here comes Cao Cao!
Under the attention of everyone, Gu Zhiwei personally appeared with Gu Yue and Gu Yu.
Lu Anning was shocked. Alice was so considerate that she even managed to get her father to come in person.
Gu Yue and Gu Yu, one on the left and one on the right, wore similar gray handmade suits in two completely different styles: one was calm and introverted, and the other was as gentle as jade.
The appearance of the three of them immediately pushed the scene to a climax.
In front of the camera, the father and daughter smiled and greeted each other, a scene of harmony. But only they themselves understood the complex emotions hidden in their eyes.
Lu Anning curled his lips and said, "You actually bothered to come here in person just for a contract."
Gu Zhiwei smiled and said, "The professor has done such a great favor to my Gu family, so of course I have to come here in person. Otherwise, it would seem that I, as the host, do not know the rules of etiquette. From now on, it will be up to you three brothers and sisters to work hard. I know you will not let me down."
As they were chatting and laughing, there was a commotion at the door. Everyone looked towards the door and had already guessed the identity of the visitor.
After much anticipation, Alice finally appeared in front of the camera with her most trusted assistant. The reporters were like crazy, not daring to miss any shot, just waiting to see who would take the top spot on the headlines as soon as the press release was issued.
The professor in front of the camera chose a champagne-colored formal dress, which was 70% elegant and 30% noble. At this moment, the image of "Queen" was embodied in her.
A glint of surprise flashed in Lu Anning's eyes, and he accidentally glanced at Gu Zhiwei, who was staring at Alice intently. Obviously, he was also amazed by the professor's demeanor.
Perhaps realizing his own loss of composure, he quickly looked away and displayed his gentlemanly demeanor in front of others.
With Alice's appearance, the signing ceremony officially began.
Unlike what everyone imagines, Alice is not only good at academics, but she can also answer reporters' questions fluently, like a veteran in front of the camera.
The whole process went very smoothly. Lu Anning felt relieved when he saw his name written on the contract.
The ceremony only gave the media some time for interviews. In order to celebrate the successful signing of the contract, Alice specially held a business cocktail party. The invitation alone had become a symbol of status in the circle.
It was said that everyone who received the invitation held a significant position in the Beijing circle. Even the venue was set up at a private estate owned by the Tang family.
Unfortunately, the media were allowed into this reception. For a time, reporters were scrambling to be responsible for the live coverage of the reception, hoping to achieve better results for themselves.
Lu Anning and Tang Jingyuan stood aside, looking at Gu Zhiwei who was being interviewed with Alice in the distance, and always felt that something was wrong.
She quietly nudged the person next to her and asked, "Do you think the professor's arrangement this time is a bit too high-profile?"
Tang Jingyuan's attention shifted to Gu Zhiwei.
"Not only that, didn't you notice? My father-in-law, your father, seems to be looking at this professor in a slightly different way than usual."
Of course! He just thought so.
Perhaps this is just a pure admiration of a man for a beautiful and outstanding woman. After all, Gu Zhiwei is a well-known model husband.
Lu Anning curled his lips and said, "My father is always interested in what's profitable. He probably sees professors as gold."
Although this metaphor was cheesy, it was vivid and figurative. She really wanted to see who was more skilled, the professor or her father.
