"I'll have to ask them what they want after this is over, what if they don't want to?! But I've kept one or two backup options."
After all, not everyone will switch jobs because of a high salary, and even if they haven't signed with a company, it's not easy for everyone to decide which company to work for, unless they feel that the company has great potential and a bright future, offers enough room for development, and has a salary they like.
"Hehe, Auntie, you have to believe in the strength of the Li Group in the business world."
She understood Li Shuyan's concerns and would say a few words in her defense later.
"Next, it's time to present the awards to the top three winners of this fashion design competition. Please welcome Master Qianmeng, Vice President Li, daughter of the Li Group, and President Lan of the Lan Group, the investor in this competition, to the stage to present the awards to these three winners! Let's give them a round of applause!"
The audience erupted in enthusiastic applause, even screams, because Lan Jingyan was about to appear. Everyone knew Lan Jingyan was a business prodigy, young, talented, and exceptionally handsome. His appearance now was completely unexpected; in the past, he would never have shown up at the event to present awards to the contestants.
"Lan Jingyan? What's he doing here? He didn't even tell me?"
Yan Xiluo found it incredibly unbelievable that he hadn't told her! She had been worried he might be angry or have other negative feelings if she hadn't told him, yet he had kept it from her. However, she was still secretly pleased.
"Why is Jingyan here too?"
Li Shuyan was also somewhat shocked, as she hadn't received any word that he was coming. She'd chatted with Yan Xiluo last night and knew he wouldn't be coming. Was he going to surprise Yan Xiluo? Had he really chased her all the way here? She was about to be fed a whole dose of sweetness...
The three of them came to the stage with the winners. Originally, Yan Xiluo was supposed to present the award to No. 41, but she specially asked the host to switch to No. 52 before going on stage.
Award number 41 should be presented by Lai Suk-yin, since first impressions are very important. If the recipient has a good impression of her, Lai Suk-yin's chances of recruiting her will increase.
After the award presenters and winners took a group photo, the award ceremony was considered to have come to a successful conclusion.
VIP Lounge
Yan Xiluo pretended to be angry and looked at Lan Jingyan coldly, wanting to see what kind of nonsense he could come up with!
Li Shuyan looked at Lan Jingyan with a questioning gaze and told him to pray for good luck, since he hadn't informed Yan Xiluo of his schedule! Afterwards, she wisely left and went to the backstage dressing room to find the designer she had her eye on.
"Luo Luo, are you angry?"
Lan Jingyan asked the girl on the sofa, who was sitting with her legs crossed and her arms crossed, in a gentle tone.
In fact, Yan Xiluo was not comfortable with this posture at all. She usually did not like to cross her legs. Dancers pay more attention to their posture. Today, she only did it for the sake of effect, making Lan Jingyan think that she was angry.
"without."
Yan Xiluo uttered a single word.
This made Lan Jingyan panic. It was obvious that he was angry. Had the surprise really turned into a shock?
"Luo Luo, I thought my arrival was a surprise for you, but I didn't expect it to upset you..."
Does she not like surprises like this? It seems I'll have to report everything from now on.
"I was wrong, Luo Luo. Next time I go somewhere, I'll tell you first. I just wanted to give you a surprise. I came here on a business trip. Actually, I just wanted to see you."
Lan Jingyan looked sincerely into Yan Xiluo's eyes and explained the situation to her.
"There will be a next time?"
Oh~ so you wanted to see me. Why don't you just tell her directly? Yan Xiluo raised an eyebrow and nodded as if she understood.
Lan Jingyan looked at Yan Xiluo with an embarrassed expression and shook his head vigorously.
The next second, Yan Xiluo couldn't hold back anymore and burst into laughter...
"Hahaha~ You're so cute, but... please don't do that next time, you can just tell me directly."
After Yan Xiluo finished laughing, she immediately composed herself, sat up straight, and began to speak to him seriously.
"Okay, that scared me to death. I thought you were really angry."
Lan Jingyan breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest, and thankfully he wasn't angry; his palms were sweaty.
"I'm not angry, but I hope we can talk about anything and not hide anything from me. That would make me very happy."
Yan Xiluo stood up, took his hand, and gently tiptoed. Her lips lightly touched Lan Jingyan's lips, and she immediately pulled away. However, Lan Jingyan reacted and quickly supported the back of her head, deepening the kiss.
"Are you hungry? We'll go eat something delicious later, and we'll invite Auntie too."
I was busy all morning and didn't even have lunch. I stayed up until after 1 p.m., and now it's 2 p.m.
"Okay, but we'll have to wait a bit longer. My aunt went to see her favorite designer; I don't know if it went well."
Yan Xiluo also asked the person in charge of the event to leave her the contact information of the designer she liked, and she planned to call and contact the designer after returning to China.
"Okay, we'll wait here. If you're sleepy, take a nap."
Lan Jingyan pulled Yan Xiluo to sit on the sofa.
"good."
Yan Xiluo gently rested his head on Lan Jingyan's lap and lay down on the sofa. Lan Jingyan took off his coat and covered him with it. Soon, Yan Xiluo fell asleep.
About ten minutes later, Li Shuyan returned to the VIP lounge and couldn't help but feel secretly delighted to see this heartwarming scene.
When Lan Jingyan saw Li Shuyan return, she softly called out, "Auntie."
"Luo Luo, wake up! Your aunt is back. Let's go eat."
Then he gently patted Yan Xiluo's head and softly woke her up.
Yan Xiluo slowly opened her eyes, dazed for a moment. A handsome face came into view. He was so handsome; she wished she could see him every morning when she woke up.
"good."
"Auntie, how's it going? Have you brought the three generals into your fold yet?"
Yan Xiluo slowly sat up, handed her coat to Lan Jingyan, and asked Li Shuyan curiously.
"Absolutely! We'll get them all. Luckily, none of them had signed with any companies before, so we settled the deal quickly."
Li Shuyan said happily, feeling great!
"That's good. Let's go, Auntie, let's get something to eat. I'm so hungry."
Yan Xiluo pouted, looking aggrieved.
"good."
A well-known restaurant in country F.
"My aunt is treating today, so please order whatever you like!"
Li Shuyan generously placed the menu in front of the two of them.
"Auntie, I'm treating today. It's not right for an elder to treat us."
Lan Jingyan felt that it was inappropriate and somewhat impolite to have an elder treat her to a meal.
"Hey, it's my aunt's treat today. She got three satisfactory designers, so let's celebrate."
Yes, she was happy, she paid the bill, she wanted to celebrate!
"Ayan, just listen to your aunt, she's happy today."
Yan Xiluo understood what Li Shuyan meant.
"Alright, then thank you in advance, Auntie."
Lan Jingyan picked up the menu and ordered a few of the more distinctive dishes.
