Lu Xiaofeng glanced at Li Susu and knew she wasn't joking.
“I value this project very much. If Manager Lü also feels that my request is somewhat unreasonable, I can consider changing the person in charge.”
Lu Xiaofeng's expression tightened, and he was about to speak when he was interrupted by the other party.
Li Susu's sharp tone suddenly softened.
"However, Manager Lü, I entrusted this project to you because I consider you one of my own. I believe you will not let me down."
"Is it right?"
Under a combination of persuasion and coercion, Lü Xiaofeng readily agreed.
"President Li, rest assured, I will take full responsibility for this project and will definitely not let you down."
"I will have everything ready by noon tomorrow."
Li Susu smiled with satisfaction, "Okay, Manager Lü, I'll be waiting for your good news. If you encounter any problems along the way, you can contact me directly."
"At any time."
After Lü Xiaofeng nodded and agreed, Li Susu planned to let him leave.
He responded, but didn't leave immediately. His hesitant manner made Li Susu a little curious.
"Manager Lü, is there anything else you'd like to say?"
Lu Xiaofeng nodded. "President Li, there are rumors in the company that President Fu saw you being dropped off at the company."
Li Susu's eyes flashed; it seemed that what happened this morning had indeed been misunderstood.
"It was just on the way, what's there to spread?"
"President Li, besides this rumor, there was also the incident where President Fu's fiancée stopped you at the company entrance, so..."
Lu Xiaofeng phrased it rather tactfully, and Li Susu's brow twitched as she understood what he meant.
Although the engagement between Fu Xingzhou and Bai Weiwei has been called off, they have not made it public to save face for both families.
As a result, the closer Li Susu and Fu Xingzhou became, the more rumors would spread among others.
But the problem is, they weren't even together...
Being talked about behind her back always made Li Susu uncomfortable.
"Manager Lü, could you please clarify this for me? Mr. Fu and I are just ordinary business partners. This morning, we were in the same car because of the HE patent project."
"Mr. Fu's time is precious, and we talked about the project the whole way in the car."
Lü Xiaofeng responded, and this explanation sounded quite reasonable.
I just don't know if others will believe this explanation.
"President Li, I understand. I will warn others not to discuss this matter any further."
Thank you.
Li Susu breathed a sigh of relief after Lü Xiaofeng left.
Her relationship with Fu Xingzhou unexpectedly became a topic of discussion among the company's employees.
It seems I should try to avoid suspicion from now on.
After a busy day, Li Susu finally celebrated her birthday.
In previous years, she celebrated her birthday in a very casual way.
The Qin family didn't care about her birthday at all; they didn't even offer a simple blessing, let alone prepare a cake or gifts.
She gradually forgot what it felt like to be pampered and cherished on her birthday.
Even today, she has rediscovered that reassuring sense of happiness.
In the mirror, Li Susu was wearing the dress given to her by Li Yulin, with a diamond necklace around her neck, looking elegant and noble.
She is the absolute star of the night.
"Ms. Li, how do you feel? Is there anything else that needs to be adjusted?"
