Chapter 227 An Obvious Blind Date
"What's wrong with Junyan? Didn't you call him?"
Yang Liyun urged Lu Yexiong.
Lu Yexiong's face was gloomy. "Of course I hit him."
"What did Junyan say?"
He didn't answer.
Yang Liyun couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard Lu Yexiong's words.
"Look at your good son, he's really grown up now!"
Yang Liyun crossed her arms, looking indignant.
"You're talking as if he's not your son."
Lu Yexiong coldly rebuked Yang Liyun.
The Lu family has now reached the limit of development in Country A, especially in City A, and it's time for them to expand their capital overseas.
The Lin family of Country C, with their background in both politics and business, is the most suitable marriage partner.
If Junyan messes things up...
Lu Yexiong clenched his fist.
At this moment, the Lin family arrived.
Among those who came were Lin Yueheng and Chu Yao, and naturally Lin Wanrong was also present.
However, after driving them to the Cuihu Villa, Zhong Cheng decided to leave first.
"Minister, are you sure you don't need me to send other bodyguards with you?"
"No need, I'll be fine."
Lin Yueheng waved his hand at Zhong Cheng.
"Go quickly!"
"Well... Minister, Madam, I'll be going now."
Zhong Cheng only greeted Lin Yueheng and Chu Yao before driving away.
Lin Wanrong watched the black Maybach drive away, her eyes filled with contempt.
On the other side, the Lu Group.
Jiang Ning stood at the entrance of the archives room.
She imagined the archives room to be similar to the ones in schools, where you could open the door and see a large stack of bookshelves with all sorts of folders neatly arranged.
However, upon opening the door to the archives room of the Lu Group, one is greeted by an airtight safe.
Jiang Ning frowned and said to the archives administrator, "Could you help me open the safe?"
"Shareholders holding 10% of the shares have no right to view the company's confidential documents."
A familiar voice suddenly rang out behind Jiang Ning. Jiang Ning turned around and, as expected, saw Lu Junyan.
Their eyes met, and Lu Junyan smiled, his naturally smiling lips always making him look incredibly charming.
However, Jiang Ning did not smile; his face remained stern, and he showed no kindness when he saw him.
"You can go out now!"
Lu Junyan turned to the archivist and said something, and the latter immediately left, understanding the situation.
Only Jiang Ning and Lu Junyan remained in the archives.
"What, feeling guilty?"
Lu Junyan's abrupt question did indeed make Jiang Ning feel guilty.
But on the surface, she pretended to be calm.
"As a shareholder of Lu's Group, I am concerned about the progress of the company's projects."
"Oh……"
Lu Junyan couldn't help but chuckle, "Do you even believe that yourself?"
"I believe you!"
Jiang Ning answered confidently and righteously.
At that moment, she saw Lu Junyan approach the safe, enter the password, and use retinal recognition.
The safe's secure door was finally opened.
"What confidential documents do you want? I'll find them for you."
Lu Junyan turned his head and gave Jiang Ning a faint, almost imperceptible smile.
Jiang Ning shook his head. "No need. I'm not really that concerned about Lu's projects."
She turned to leave, but Lu Junyan grabbed her arm.
Lu Junyan's palms were very cold; when pressed against his skin, they felt like a block of ice.
"Mr. Lu, please have some self-respect."
Jiang Ning didn't shake off Lu Junyan's hand, but instead glared at him.
"Since you're already here... I just wanted to invite you to my office for a coffee."
Lu Junyan spoke of it casually.
Jiang Ning glanced at his arm, which was being held tightly.
"Is this the way Steward Lu does it... called 'please'?"
Lu Junyan's fingertips loosened for a moment.
But he still didn't let go of Jiang Ning.
For some reason, Jiang Ning now gives him the feeling that once he lets go, he will never be able to hold on to him again.
"President Lu!"
The door to the archives room was suddenly pushed open.
"Your father called and told you that you must return to the villa immediately..."
The administrator spoke hurriedly, only realizing a beat later that Lu Junyan was pulling and tugging at Jiang Ning.
"Ah...yes, I'm so sorry...but what about your father..."
The administrator stammered, looking completely lost.
Judging from Lu Junyan's expression, he didn't like being disturbed.
Jiang Ning guessed that the reason Lu Yexiong was so anxious to find Lu Junyan was probably related to the Lin family.
Moreover, she knew that Zhong Cheng had come to City A.
It seems that Zhong Cheng is not the only one who came to City A.
Jiang Ning was pulled by Lu Junyan out of the archives room and into the president's office.
"Aren't you going to your father's villa to see Lin Wanrong?"
Do you care about Lin Wanrong a lot?
Jiang Ning was taken aback when Lu Junyan asked her a question.
She stared into Lu Junyan's eyes.
The cunning and probing intent in Lu Junyan's eyes were obvious.
Jiang Ning guessed that Lu Junyan had probably misunderstood.
However, she smiled and replied:
"Yes, I care about it."
She was concerned about whether Lu Junyan and Lin Wanrong would actually have a business marriage.
If so, it would be a fatal blow to Chu Qingxue.
Seeing Jiang Ning's smile, Lu Junyan held his breath.
Previously, she thought Jiangning was like a transparent piece of glass.
But now, it's like a fog...
I can't see through it.
You can't grab it even if you reach out.
Lu Junyan had Jiang Ning sit at his desk and then called over Xiao Zhang.
Xiao Zhang, like the archives administrator, originally came to find Lu Junyan with a mission.
Lu Junyan's phone was turned off.
This is what Lu Yexiong said.
Unable to reach Lu Junyan, Lu Yexiong called the company's landline.
I also contacted Xiao Zhang.
Xiao Zhang knew that Lu Yexiong was hosting a banquet for the Lin family of three at the Cuihu Villa today.
So he originally thought that Lu Junyan would not come to the company at all.
Even if they come, they probably won't stay long and will go back soon.
However, Lu Junyan has stayed until now.
When Xiao Zhang entered the general manager's office and saw Jiang Ning sitting inside, he finally understood why Lu Junyan had stayed until now.
Xiao Zhang looked down at the cup of coffee in his hand.
So... Lu Junyan asked him to make a cup of coffee for Jiang Ning.
"Miss Jiang, please have some."
Xiao Zhang placed the coffee in front of Jiang Ning.
"Thank you for your help, Xiao Zhang."
Jiang Ning thanked Xiao Zhang.
She noticed that Xiao Zhang glanced at Lu Junyan without making a sound, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
However, he eventually left the office quietly.
It's really not easy working for Lu Junyan!
Jiang Ning couldn't help but sigh.
She guessed that Xiao Zhang must have also come in with a task given to him by Lu Yexiong.
However, Xiao Zhang is better at reading people's expressions and understands Lu Junyan better.
Based on the timeframe mentioned by Zhong Cheng, the Lin family should already be at the Green Lake Villa.
It was an obvious blind date, but the man was nowhere to be seen. It wasn't just Lu Yexiong and Yang Liyun who were embarrassed; the Lin family of three felt the same way.
"What's so funny?"
Jiang Ning suddenly heard Lu Junyan ask this question.
