"You're back! The master is in the restaurant!" As soon as she entered the room, a servant was waiting at the door. When she saw Lan Xi, she came up to her with a smile and led her to the restaurant.
Lan Xi frowned: "Don't I know where my restaurant is? Do I need someone to show me the way?"
"The master knew that you would go to the attic to change clothes when you came back, so he asked me to pick you up. You can go directly to the restaurant when you come back!" The servant smiled politely, but she felt uneasy in her heart. Everyone knew Lan Xi's temper, and she was afraid that she would be angry.
Strangely, Lan Xi followed her quietly and walked to the restaurant peacefully.
The food seemed to have just been served. Sitting at the square sandalwood table were only Lan Xiangfu and Li Xun. Lan Xi sneered in her heart. They knew how to ask their elders for help, but they themselves shrank back and refused to step forward.
"Grandpa! Grandpa!" Lan Xi greeted them politely and sat down at the table after washing her hands.
Lan Xiangfu watched her sit down, picked up his chopsticks and gestured to Lan Xi: "Let's eat first!"
Lan Xi responded obediently and started eating with her head lowered.
Li Xun rarely saw Lan Xi like this. The last time was when Yulan asked for a divorce after Lan Ting'an cheated on her.
After almost finishing their meal, the three of them moved to the tea room where the housekeeper had just brewed tea, and the fresh aroma of green tea filled the air.
"Xixi! Have you finished discussing the cooperation with foreign countries?" After Lan Xiangfu sat down, he first drank a sip of tea and then slowly asked.
Lan Xi knew that Grandpa had people in the company, so it wasn't difficult for her to find out about these things. "We've finished the discussion. We're having a project planning meeting today!"
"Well! If you're going to take on a big order, do it well. That way, your future position will be secure!" Lan Xiangfu listened quietly and made a few casual comments. He trusted Lan Xi's work, but the next second, he changed the subject: "What about the Li family's order?"
"Grandpa, you didn't know?" Lan Xi looked stunned. She glanced at her grandfather and said, "As soon as this morning session ended, I asked Zhu Lingling to inform Auntie to come to the meeting this afternoon! Didn't she tell me?"
Li Xun indeed did not receive any news. After hearing this, he lowered his head to look at his phone. After confirming that there was no news, his face darkened. Now he understood that Lan Xi had no choice but to complain.
Lan Xiangfu didn't look at Li Xun, but just drank tea one sip after another:
"Maybe I didn't have time to tell you! This matter has indeed dragged on for quite some time. You should manage your time and adjust the order in the future. Sometimes you should do things simultaneously if possible!"
Lan Xi nodded obediently and looked at Li Xun with guilt:
"Grandpa, don't be angry. I really didn't handle this matter well. I thought that the Li family had just signed a contract with Nar Company some time ago, and they might have to bother preparing the project book in the next two days. I happened to have other things on my hands, so I got busy first!"
Li Xun has always been willing to grant his granddaughter's requests. Even if Lan Xi hadn't been there for that incident, he would not have agreed to his daughter's divorce. Lan Ting'an is not very good, but his father is very capable!
In addition, Lan Xi gave him such a good idea at that time, so that Yulan could return to the Lan family and work for the Lan Group. This would also help the Li Group to move part of its industries to the Shanghai Stock Exchange and even expand its territory. It was the best thing ever!
He felt sorry for his daughter, but he couldn't let such a big business as the Li family be ruined in his hands, otherwise a hundred years later, he wouldn't even be able to face the ancestral hall.
He knew a long time ago that this girl could become something great!
"What are you talking about! I've been staying at your grandfather's place these past two days, and I've heard him say a lot. Lan's current achievements have a lot to do with you. The young are so promising! The young are so promising!" Li Xun said carelessly and slowly changed the subject.
Lan Xi smiled, lowered her head and drank her tea obediently. The next second, her cell phone rang. She looked at the caller ID and saw that it was Zhu Lingling.
"Miss, they obviously want you to come for a meeting!" Zhu Lingling's voice sounded helplessly from the other side.
Li Xun was close by, and when he heard it, he immediately glared: "Xixi, give me the phone! I'll tell you!"
"Lingling! Give the phone to her aunt!" Li Xun spoke to Zhu Lingling in a polite tone.
Li Yuling saw Zhu Lingling handing her the phone. She proudly picked up the phone and put it to her ear, acting like an elder. "Lan Xi! Where have you been? How could you not come to such an important meeting?"
Li Xun didn't expect his daughter to start lecturing him right away. He was so angry that he stood up and started scolding her.
Li Yuling didn't expect that it would be her father who answered the phone. She stood up from her seat instantly and her face became serious.
The father and son, who were sitting and drinking tea, glanced at each other inadvertently, and a look of helplessness appeared on Lan Xiangfu's face.
Li Xun was so angry that he took his cell phone and walked out of the tea room. He could hear the voices outside clearly.
"Don't be angry with your grandfather. Even though he has a loud voice and nimble legs and feet, he is still an old man!" Lan Xiangfu's voice was light, without much of a lecturing tone in it.
Lan Xi nodded obediently: "Got it!"
"I heard that the person in charge of the project this time is Liu Xiyue's sister? Is it reliable?" Sure enough, the head of the Lan family knew everything about the group!
Speaking of this, Lan Xi said truthfully: "It was designated by Nar, and I only found out this morning!"
The old man's eyes lit up for a moment, then returned to normal: "Well! You better be careful not to let anyone take advantage of you!"
"Okay! Got it!"
As he was talking, Li Xun came in with his cell phone. The old man was so angry that his beard stood up: "It's just that you have such a good temper, Xixi. If I had an aunt like you, I don't know how many times I would have yelled at you!"
It's easy to say. You can scold me, but can I scold you?
Lan Xi muttered in her heart, with a smile on her face:
"I'm an elder after all. I didn't act like a junior at the family dinner that day, so how can I do this every time? In my aunt's words, isn't this treasonous?"
