"Do you think she'd even want you to look at her? My wife went shopping with you a few times, and I already felt you had ulterior motives. You're just after me, you're lusting after my body!"
“Yes! You’re right, I like you.” Zhang Fengxia looked at Lu Feng frankly and said, “If I didn’t like you, would I be so shameless as to call my grandfather and go through all this trouble and that trouble? I’m telling you very clearly today, I like you, I have feelings for you.”
Lu Feng was just saying it out of anger, but he didn't expect her to take it seriously. He froze on the spot like a wooden statue. He had a buddy-like feeling towards Zhang Fengxia.
Of course, keeping her by his side was largely due to his relationship with her. As for other aspects, Lu Feng didn't really think much about it; she was usually very easygoing.
"Ding-dong!"
The elevator arrived, but neither of them moved. Zhang Fengxia stood there, her face flushed red to the roots of her neck. The atmosphere in the elevator was extremely tense, as if time had been paused. It felt as if the oxygen had been sucked out, making it hard to breathe. Both of them could hear their own heartbeats pounding.
The elevator doors closed again.
When the elevator doors opened again, a man and a woman walked in. Sensing the strange atmosphere in the elevator, they glanced at the woman standing in the corner and asked in a low voice, "Which floor are you two on?"
"The seventeenth floor!"
"Let's go down first."
Back upstairs, Lu Feng stepped out of the elevator and walked silently toward his room. Zhang Fengxia quickly caught up with him and demanded, "I'm just asking you, are you asleep?"
Lu Feng waved his hand, not wanting to say anything more.
"I told you I like you, why do you look so embarrassed? That's just how I am, I can't keep things to myself. I've only liked a few people since I was a child, so it's good to say it out loud. I like you, but I don't mean I want to be your lover or anything. Don't overthink it."
Lu Feng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's great, that's great!"
Zhang Fengxia stared at him, her expression somewhat unfriendly.
"What I mean is, you're familiar with Xiaoyan and me, so it's fine as long as it's not awkward. I happen to have something to talk to you about. I'm going to take a shower first, and I'll come find you in a bit." Lu Feng said, opening the door and going inside.
Once inside, he realized she had followed him in. Without a word, he sat down on the sofa and crossed his legs.
"I think you should go back to your room first."
"Go ahead and wash up, what? You think I'm going to barge in and do anything to you? I've made such a fuss whenever I've ever gone into your room before!"
Lu Feng thought about it and realized it made sense. It wouldn't be strange for her to appear anywhere around him. Last time, she just sat right on the edge of the bed, and he seemed to have gotten used to it without realizing it.
After taking a shower, I called Gao Zhiwei and briefly explained what had happened that day. I suggested that after the group is formalized next year, Lu Feng should form a board of directors, adopt a voting system, set up a headquarters, and also elect the group's general manager and president.
Gao Zhiwei on the other end of the phone was a little confused. It sounded like Lu Feng was saying that once the board of directors was formed next year, he would completely wash his hands of the matter.
He knew Lu Feng was leaving and was secretly pleased about it, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly. He had originally thought it would take at least two years to finish dealing with all the company's affairs.
"President Lu, isn't next year a bit too rushed? Let's take it easy for now. President Du and I are still unsure about some things in the company, and the senior management isn't entirely convinced of our abilities. My idea is to offer you the position of Group Chairman next year, so you can make decisions about the company's market, product development, and overall strategic development."
"Then what the hell is the difference from now?" Lu Feng retorted.
There was silence on the other end of the phone. Gao Zhiwei was afraid that Lu Feng would leave. If the market changed, they simply wouldn't be able to withstand the intense business competition like this year.
Lu Feng's series of maneuvers and dodges looked effortless, but once you actually do it, you'll know that a single step can lead to a world of difference, and a slight misstep can result in certain death. Before making a profit, Jiaming Foods was always short of money and was on the verge of bankruptcy.
When Gao Zhiwei came to the reconciliation meeting, he had drinks with a group of executives from Johnnie To that evening. When they talked about Lu Feng, they all agreed that, in that situation, not to mention anything else, the enormous pressure would have been enough to cause everyone present to have a mental breakdown.
Lu Feng didn't talk to him much. They always wanted him to create a cake that they could just swallow whole, but where would they find such a good thing?
