Assistant Qin's office is still empty.
Qin Shi quietly wiped away her tears and looked at Jian Qing.
What was there to be sad about? At least she was still by his side, even if she was just a shadow, Qin Shi would be satisfied.
As long as Jian Yi is still here, Jian Qing’s hard work is still here.
"Okay, okay, Qingqing, what do you think of this ancient style ceremony?"
"Me? I want to go and see it. The things on display here remind me of home."
"Then let's go together."
Jian Qing quickly organized his words: "It sounds like the organizer wants Jianyi Company to bring its own products. Can I make something myself and bring it with me?"
"Of course you can. You're the president. You have the final say on what products to bring!"
The clouds of worry quickly dissipated, and Qin Shi and Jian Qing both had joy on their faces when they walked out of the meeting room.
Outside the conference room, there was a lively scene that they could not have imagined.
Lu Zhiyan, along with the delivery driver, carried a huge office desk and swaggered through the office area.
The table was so large that everyone made way for it and cast curious glances at it.
Qin Shi cast a look at Jian Qing, as if to say, Look, look, look, I told you Lu Zhiyan is not a good guy.
Jian Qing smiled slightly and nodded, as if he had misunderstood, and looked directly towards Qin Shi's office.
Qin Shi's heart was filled with alarm.
Lu Zhiyan looked up and saw Qin Shi, revealing a smug expression as if his plan had succeeded: "Boss Qin, Boss Jian said that the original legal office cannot be used, so I can choose my own office. I've been looking for it, and this place is the most suitable!" After that, he pointed to Qin Shi's office. There was a place in the office separated by a glass door. It was the assistant office that Jian Qing had left for Qin Shi.
Qin Shi hurried forward to stop it, but his strength was too small to stop the speed of the desk.
"No, Lu Zhiyan, what do you want to do? That's my office."
"The sunshine here is good, the air is good, the scenery is beautiful, and the information is smooth. I like it very much." Lu Zhiyan giggled.
Qin Shi was not happy at all.
"Shishi, I'm sorry. This is what I promised President Lu before. President Lu is a nice person. I thought you would like this arrangement." Seeing Qin Shi about to get angry, Jian Qing said in a low voice.
As he was speaking, the desk had been carried into Qin Shi's office.
"Let's put it here." Lu Zhiyan pointed to a place, which was obviously the assistant's office area, placed at right angles to Qin Shi's desk.
"Lu Zhiyan, what kind of magic potion did you give Jian Qing?" After the furniture movers left, Qin Shi walked into her office and looked at Lu Zhiyan with confusion.
Lu Zhiyan found a rag from somewhere and carefully wiped the newly delivered desk. "Boss Qin, you and I both understand that there is no magic potion in this world. If anything, I have solved many of Boss Jian's problems, which makes her feel that I am trustworthy."
Qin Shi chuckled lightly, with a hint of disdain: "Qingqing is naive, thinking that there are mostly good people in this world. Is the only thing Lawyer Lu can do except deceive innocent little girls?"
Lu Zhiyan shook his head calmly: "I am capable of more than this. Mr. Qin, just wait and see. We have a long way to go."
Qin Shi felt depressed when she saw that the independent space that she had originally used alone now had one more person. Jian Qing was an ancient person after all. No matter how much she integrated into modern society, she still could not understand the importance of independent space to a modern person. Perhaps in Jian Qing's view, having Lu Zhiyan next to her was not a big deal.
But in Qin Shi's opinion, the impact was undoubtedly huge. She looked at Lu Zhiyan with suspicion. This man always took people by surprise. Who knew if he would have other whimsical requests in the future? With such a person in her office for a long time, Qin Shi had to be careful and vigilant.
Thinking of this, Qin Shi urgently called for help: "Assistant Lin, I need someone to install surveillance cameras in my office!"
Assistant Lin was originally watching outside Qin Shi's office, but he was accidentally called and ran into Qin Shi's office.
"Boss Qin, this..."
Lu Zhiyan: "We can't install surveillance. Mr. Qin's office is so important, it's easy for someone to take pictures of our business secrets."
"Trade secrets? I'm worried that someone is watching everything. If there's no surveillance, Jianyi's trade secrets will become a piece of waste paper that everyone in the industry has." Qin Shi sighed.
Lu Zhiyan: "No, Mr. Qin, don't worry. If that happens, I will file a lawsuit on behalf of our company."
Qin Shi’s inner thoughts: Does Lu Zhiyan really not understand or is he pretending not to understand?
Assistant Lin's inner thoughts were: The atmosphere isn't right, the atmosphere is so tense, I'd better run away quietly. As she thought this, her feet unconsciously moved back.
Qin Shi quickly waved to Assistant Lin: "Huh? Xiaolin, don't run."
Assistant Lin put on an awkward smile and said, "Boss Qin, I'll go right away and contact the camera..."
Seeing Assistant Lin's helpless look, Qin Shi also laughed. This was a conflict between herself and Lu Zhiyan, and Assistant Lin was also an innocent person caught in the crossfire.
"Forget it, forget it. I won't install surveillance. Go to the General Affairs Office and buy me a few safes. I'll put important documents there."
Assistant Lin: "How many?"
"The more the merrier. Buy another big sticker and put it on the partition glass!"
Seeing Qin Shi's angry look, Lu Zhiyan quickly said, "Boss Qin, don't worry, I know my limits. I'm here to do my job better, and it won't affect your work."
Qin Shi: "If you had any sense you wouldn't come to my office and take up space."
Lu Zhiyan: "Everything is for work."
Qin Shi: "I don't want to care about you anymore."
Based on his many years of secretarial experience, Assistant Lin judged that this was a good time to escape from President Qin's office.
She left Qin Shi's office carefully and tiptoe.
"Lu Zhiyan, shouldn't you explain something to me?" Qin Shi asked unhappily when she saw Lu Zhiyan tidying up his new desk in an orderly manner.
Lu Zhiyan: "Considering that every decision made by the group faces legal risks, in order to protect my investment, I need to be as close to President Qin as possible."
"You know Wang Yuzhou, the Sales Director, right? The sales department used to work in one office building. In order to get a separate office, Wang Yuzhou and the group applied for it for a long time. Later, to celebrate getting his own office, he treated everyone to a big dinner."
Qin Shi walked closer to Lu Zhiyan step by step: "So, Mr. Lu doesn't want to have an independent office? I can satisfy you now."
Lu Zhiyan sat comfortably in his office chair, looking up at the ceiling: "No need."
Qin Shi presented facts and reasoned with him, but it seemed like talking to a cow, and he felt discouraged.
"From today on, I will work seriously. Please supervise me, President Qin." Seeing Qin Shi's angry and helpless look, Lu Zhiyan rarely said a good word.
Qin Shi thought about it and finally came up with a good way to fight back. As for the legal advisor, let him be overwhelmed by endless contracts!
Thinking of this, Qin Shi made a phone call: "Assistant Lin, find all the company's contracts and ask the legal advisor to check if there are any risks in our contracts."
Assistant Lin, who had just become perfectly invisible, rushed to the archives and brought back a box of contracts.
"Boss Qin, Consultant Lu, the materials are all here."
After saying that, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Please ask Mr. Lu to sign the handover procedures."
Lu Zhiyan couldn't help laughing when he saw the yellowed paper and picked up a contract.
"The contract was signed on October 30, 2020, took effect on November 1, 2020, and expired on October 31, 2021. Assistant Lin, how many years of the group's calendar have you dug up?"
Assistant Lin was also devastated. She started working non-stop after receiving the notice.
With President Qin on one side and Consultant Lu on the other, she entered a battlefield without the smoke of gunpowder.
"Xiao Lin, don't listen to him. You did a great job. Go back."
Assistant Lin: "Boss Qin, what about the handover procedures..."
Qin Shi: "Anything less will be considered Lu Zhiyan's."
Lu Zhiyan shook his head helplessly: "Thank you for your trust, President Qin. I will definitely be willing to be a workhorse and devote myself to the group."
Qin Shi no longer responded. She saw Lu Zhiyan carefully put the first contract into the drawer, then took out another contract, opened the notebook, and began to record.
For a moment, Qin Shi felt that the scene in front of him was very familiar.
When she was in high school, she was lying on the table and opened her eyes in a daze after lunch break.
The classroom was quiet. Those who took a nap were still asleep, while others, who weren't, were playing downstairs in the teaching building. She looked up. In the entire classroom, only one person stood straight, writing meticulously.
It was Lu Zhiyan.
The sunshine shines on Lu Zhiyan, a high school student, and there is a kind of tranquility that comes from the peaceful years.
But this tranquility was soon shattered.
The bell rang and the whole classroom became restless. Lu Zhiyan was drowned in the chatter in the noisy classroom.
Besides being a talkative person and a lover of skipping classes, Lu Zhiyan also has a quiet side that is unknown to the public.
Qin Shi suddenly felt that Lu Zhiyan was not so annoying after he shut up and stopped acting on his own.
She continued to open her work computer and continued designing the "urban jungle".
The city, modern streets and high-rise buildings, the jungle, a primitive, upward and majestic force, the urban jungle, reflects the infinite vitality that humans have demonstrated in their continuous exploration of the living environment.
Qin Shi constantly adjusted the colors of his paintings, abstracting the towering buildings into waves of upward force, like the wind blowing through the rainforest, a song of joy performed by nature.
She chose olive green as the main color, and used simple lines throughout the modules that resemble high-rise buildings and towering trees, making the colors light and bold.
After finishing the first draft, Qin Shi stretched lazily with satisfaction, then looked back at Lu Zhiyan, who was still writing something down stroke by stroke in the notebook.
Qin Shi suddenly felt a little guilty.
Lu Zhiyan could have refused and could have negotiated various conditions with him.
But he didn't.
He just quietly did his own thing, as if he was still the boy in high school who had once had his glorious moments.
Qin Shi reached a temporary reconciliation with Lu Zhiyan in her heart.
Unexpectedly, the settlement lasted only two hours.
