Chapter 105: You got a boyfriend so quickly?
More than half a month has passed since I last saw Wei Chizheng, and he is still as handsome as ever.
His tall figure was encased in a black suit, and Xie Nanzhi vaguely noticed that he seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and his face was even paler than before.
Xie Nanzhi looked at him, but Wei Chizheng's indifference made her mistakenly think that she had mistaken him for someone else.
It was as if they had never met.
Xie Nanzhi subconsciously furrowed her brows, just as she heard Lu Zeyu beside her say, "Nanzhi, let me say hello to an acquaintance."
acquaintance?
Does Lu Zeyu know him?
Lu Zeyu walked up to Director Wang of the exchange and said politely, "Director Wang, I didn't expect to meet you here."
Although they had outmaneuvered Lu Zeyu, they still had to maintain appearances. Director Wang smiled and said, "It's quite a coincidence, Mr. Lu, are you here on a date with your girlfriend?"
Upon hearing this, Wei Chizheng's eyes narrowed, and he looked at Xie Nanzhi with hawk-like eyes.
Although Xie Nanzhi did not meet his gaze, she could still feel his sharp eyes.
What does this person mean?
She really couldn't understand him.
Lu Zeyu made no attempt to hide his intentions towards Xie Nanzhi, saying, "I'm pursuing her, but we haven't officially started dating yet."
Director Wang said, "This lady clearly has many suitors. Mr. Lu, you'd better step up your game."
Lu Zeyu's cheeks flushed slightly, and he changed the subject, "That's for sure. By the way, when Director Wang is free, I'd like to invite you to dinner alone. I wonder if Director Wang would do me the honor."
The company's IPO application was rejected, and all the documents were returned. Lu Zeyu believed that his company fully met the listing requirements, and there must be other reasons why it was not approved.
Lu Zeyu had wanted to meet with Director Wang before, but he had always declined with various excuses. If he hadn't met him here today, it wouldn't have been easy to see him.
They're all seasoned veterans, Director Wang said dismissively, "To be honest, Mr. Lu, the workload has been too heavy lately, and I really don't have much time. I'll definitely contact you after I'm done with this."
Lu Zeyu's ability to make a name for himself in the financial industry shows he's no ordinary person; how could he not understand Director Wang's perfunctory words?
However, it is indeed not appropriate to continue this entanglement at the moment.
Lu Zeyu smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for Director Wang's call."
After exchanging pleasantries and saying goodbye, they went into their respective private rooms, which happened to be next to each other.
Xie Nanzhi sat down, and Lu Zeyu handed her the menu. He called her a few times before she came back to her senses. "Hmm?"
Lu Zeyu sat down next to her and jokingly asked, "Your body is in Cao Ying but your heart is in Han, Miss Nan's thoughts have wandered to the ends of the earth."
The humor eased the awkwardness, and Xie Nanzhi, holding the menu, said, "Let's order when Catherine arrives."
Lu Zeyu placed his hands on the table and shrugged. "My aunt just messaged me. She was in so much pain that she went home first. She specifically told me to take good care of you and make sure you get back to the hotel safely."
Even someone with a slow mind could guess that today's gathering was deliberately arranged by Catherine to bring the two of them together.
It's rare to see Westerners so enthusiastic about matchmaking.
Seeing that Xie Nanzhi did not make any further moves, Lu Zeyu picked up the menu again. "Never mind, I'll order whatever you prefer. Does Miss Nanzhi have any dietary restrictions?"
Xie Nanzhi shook her head, "There are no dietary restrictions."
After that, Lu Zeyu ordered all the restaurant's specialties.
On the other side, Wei Chizheng sat in the main seat, his posture elegant and exuding a lazy air, his nonchalant attitude suggesting he didn't take Director Wang seriously.
Director Wang could put on airs in front of Lu Zeyu, but he wouldn't dare to show any disrespect to Wei Chizheng, not even if he had two lives.
Director Wang poured Wei Chi a drink and asked ingratiatingly, "It is my great honor that Mr. Wei took the initiative to ask me to meet. I just don't know what brings you here, Mr. Wei?"
Wei Chizheng's eyes were extremely deep, as vast as the starry sky. He picked up the wine glass in front of him, his cold gaze flippant, "I heard that Boya Financial's listing application was rejected?"
Forehead.
Is that what he did?
But when we met at the door just now, these two people clearly didn't know each other.
Director Wang was completely baffled. "Boya Financial didn't meet some of the listing requirements, which is why it was rejected. Why is Mr. Wei suddenly interested in Boya Financial?"
Wei Chizheng's tone plummeted, and he raised an eyebrow, "No way?"
Director Wang was terrified and immediately changed his story, "No, that's not what I meant..."
Before Wei Chi could even speak, Mu Lin took over the conversation for him, saying, "Director Wang, no matter how much money you took from Guangfeng Financial, Boya Financial is something our Second Master wants to protect. You should think about it carefully."
Director Wang was sweating profusely, and his face turned pale with fright.
Guangfeng Financial approached him and gave him a large sum of money, with the aim of preventing Boya Financial from going public.
The reason Guangfeng did this is simple: Lu Zeyu left Guangfeng Financial and took all of its clients with him. Since then, Guangfeng has held a grudge against Lu Zeyu, which is why it interfered.
But to everyone's surprise, Lu Zeyu had this powerful figure protecting him, which greatly worried Director Wang.
"Mr. Wei, rest assured, I will definitely give you a satisfactory result in this matter."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Chizheng stood up abruptly, his sharply defined profile revealing a hint of coolness.
Wei Chizheng lifted his foot and walked out, with Mu Lin following closely behind. When he reached the door, he paused, glancing at Director Wang out of the corner of his eye. "Let's just keep this to ourselves."
Director Wang nodded readily, "Okay, okay, I'll keep it to myself and not tell anyone."
Then, Wei Chizheng pushed open the door and left without saying a word.
As soon as he stepped out, the two people in the next private room also came out.
Xie Nanzhi and Wei Chizheng's eyes met inadvertently. Her pupils showed surprise and astonishment, which then turned into unease and doubt.
Seeing this, Lu Zeyu realized that this was a good opportunity to speak with Director Wang alone.
However, he couldn't let Xie Nanzhi go back alone.
Xie Nanzhi saw his inner struggle and said understandingly, "The security in the capital is very good. I can go back by myself. Mr. Lu, do whatever you want to do. Don't let me delay your business."
During lunch, Lu Zeyu briefly mentioned to Xie Nanzhi the company's failed IPO. She naturally knew that this was an excellent opportunity.
If we miss this opportunity, who knows when we'll be able to see Director Wang again.
Lu Zeyu hesitated, "But..."
Xie Nanzhi interrupted him directly, "Mr. Lu, indecisiveness is not a quality that a person in a position of power should have."
Hearing her say that, Lu Zeyu made up his mind, "Nanzhi, let me know you're safe at the hotel."
Xie Nanzhi replied calmly, "Mm."
Lu Zeyu went straight into the private room to find Director Wang, while Xie Nanzhi walked straight ahead. Just as the elevator doors were about to close, she pressed the down button in time.
The elevator doors slowly opened, revealing Wei Chizheng's handsome face right in front of her.
She walked in nonchalantly and turned to face the elevator door.
As the elevator slowly descended, the number on the electronic screen changed to 1. Just as the elevator doors opened, Xie Nanzhi suddenly asked a question.
Why did you block me?
