Yi An lingered at the entrance of Mr. Wu's company, but could not see Su Yan for a long time.
He was getting impatient, so he took out his phone and called Su Yan.
"Hey, where are you?"
As soon as the call connected, he couldn't wait to ask.
The sounds from Su Yan's side were somewhat noisy, with the clanging of pots and pans.
"On my way, on my way! I'm in a bit of traffic, I'll be there soon, just wait for me a little longer."
Yi An immediately saw through her lie, "You're still at home, right? You haven't taken Xiaoyu to school yet either?"
Su Yan glanced at Su Xiaoyu, who was still sitting at the dining table, eating earnestly, and looked a little embarrassed.
"Why don't you go in first? I'll come over right away after I drop off the kids."
Yi An was speechless. "How am I supposed to talk to President Wu about this? We haven't even discussed it yet!"
Su Yan busied herself with her work, urging Su Xiaoyu to eat quickly and get ready for school.
Taking a moment to speak, he said to Yi An on the other end of the phone, "Don't you have Qiong's design drafts? Use that to make do for now."
Yi'an was completely bewildered by how casually she spoke.
"Big sister, I showed them Qiong's design drafts. What if they really agree? Where am I supposed to find Qiong to collaborate with?"
Su Yan kept comforting him: "If it doesn't work out, we can always talk to Qiong again. You go in and talk first. Don't be late for the appointment, it's impolite!"
Yi'an listened to her rant and gave a cold laugh.
"So you know it's impolite to be late!"
Su Yan took a breath and said, "I admit I was wrong, okay? Big brother, you go in first, I'll be right there."
Now that things had come to this, Yi'an had no other choice but to hang up the phone and brace herself as she walked into Mr. Wu's company.
Mr. Wu is a magnanimous person. Although Chengyan Technology stood him up, he was objective and not personal, and his attitude towards Yi'an was relatively mild.
"If Chairman Yi is here to discuss orders, there's no need to say anything. We already have ideas."
Yi An was startled, but quickly regained her composure, took out a design draft from her bag, and gently placed it in front of President Wu.
"Mr. Wu, don't rush to conclusions. Let's take a look at this first."
Seeing his mysterious demeanor, General Manager Wu obligingly stood up and glanced at the design draft.
His gaze was fixed on her at first glance.
"Qiong?"
Yi An clapped her hands and exclaimed, "President Wu has a good eye! This design is indeed Qiong's work."
Mr. Wu's gaze toward Yi An was no longer the same as before; it had become intriguing.
"Is Chairman Yi trying to use Qiong to discuss cooperation with us?"
Yi An did not deny it, and analyzed the current situation in an orderly manner.
"Mr. Wu, based on my understanding, there aren't many people in China who can take on this order, right? The reason you've been dragging it out for so long is because you haven't found a suitable candidate."
His implication was that Mr. Wu's earlier claim of having an idea was just a ruse to force him out.
Seeing his confident demeanor, Mr. Wu smiled.
"Can you really bring Joan here?"
Yi An felt uneasy when he heard the question, but he couldn't show any weakness under President Wu's gaze.
"As long as Mr. Wu is willing to give us the orders, Qiong can cooperate with Mr. Wu."
To make sure Mr. Wu didn't believe him, he added, "Our circle isn't that big. Mr. Wu should have heard about the collaboration between my company, YiKoo Technology, and Qiong, right?"
Mr. Wu nodded. "I've heard of it. You're quite capable to have won over Qiong."
Yi An then pushed the design draft in front of President Wu, "So... about our collaboration?"
"Our cooperation..."
Before Mr. Wu could finish speaking, there was a knock on the office door from the outside.
Seeing that Mr. Wu's words were abruptly interrupted, Yi An was clearly a little annoyed and turned her head to look towards the door.
The person who pushed open the door and walked in was Su Yan.
Yi An couldn't help but curse inwardly: This guy is more trouble than he's worth! And of all times, he had to come at a time like this!
As he was muttering to himself, Mr. Wu behind him suddenly exclaimed, "Qiong?"
Yi An turned around in confusion and saw President Wu looking at Su Yan with a surprised and delighted expression.
"Mr. Wu?"
He called out, but Mr. Wu was too excited to hear him.
Mr. Wu stood up and went straight to Su Yan.
“Joan, I’m sure I haven’t mistaken you for someone else, am I? Three years ago, at a design exhibition in the United States, although it was just a fleeting glimpse, your image is forever etched in my heart. I can’t be mistaken.”
Hearing his confident words, Yi An turned to look at Su Yan again, and subconsciously exclaimed in her heart: No way?
Su Yan didn't glance at Yi An once after entering the room.
She stepped forward and extended her hand to Mr. Wu.
"Mr. Wu, hello, I'm Qiong."
In this sentence, Yi An was so shocked that she froze, while President Wu was overjoyed.
After shaking hands with him, Su Yan sat down next to Yi An.
"Has Chairman Yi already told you the purpose of my visit today?"
Mr. Wu glanced at Yi An, but instead of answering the question, he asked, "I wonder what your relationship is?"
Upon hearing this awkward question, Yi An immediately frowned.
Su Yan smiled and replied, "A cooperative relationship."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Wu's brows immediately relaxed, and the corners of his mouth stretched all the way to his ears, as if the words "Then I'm relieved" were etched onto his face.
Seeing Mr. Wu's burning gaze, Yi An cleared her throat, grabbed Su Yan's arm, and said in a deliberately ambiguous tone, "Mr. Wu is no outsider, we don't need to hide our relationship from him."
