This was not the first time that Lu Qinglan threatened Chen Zihan like this.
Although Chen Zihan felt that her tone was not very friendly, he didn't care much.
Although it was getting late, the scenery along the West Lake was still beautiful. In the distance, there was still snow on the North and South Peaks and Baoshishan Mountain. Some lights along the lake were already lit, adding a more hazy atmosphere compared to the bright daylight.
"Let's go to Lingyin Temple tomorrow!" Lu Qinglan suddenly said this after looking at the beautiful scenery of lakes and mountains for a while, and then asked Li Yunxin, "Do you want to go with us tomorrow?"
"Of course!" Li Yunxin agreed without hesitation, "I came to Qiantang just to have fun!"
"We'll stay for a few more days before returning to Yanjing." Lu Qinglan said to Lu Ruorong, "When the time comes, bring Li Yunxin to Yanjing to play as well."
Lu Ruorong understood what Lu Qinglan meant, but she did not express her opinion.
Li Yunxin naturally had no objection to Lu Qinglan and Lu Ruorong wanting to take her to Yanjing for fun.
"Can you take me to visit the Forbidden City, the Old Summer Palace and the Summer Palace?" she asked Chen Zihan.
Chen Zihan basically wouldn't go to Yanjing, but he just said euphemistically: "We'll see when the time comes!"
It soon got dark and the temperature dropped.
The group of four strolled along the lake for a while and then turned back.
The place to eat is Qiantang Hotel.
It was not far from the Xinqiao Hotel where Lu Qinglan was staying, but Chen Zihan still drove there.
Ning Yuezhen knew that Chen Zihan was going to have a meeting with a group of important people tonight, so around dinner time, she sent him a message: "Can I come join in the fun?"
"Forget it today!" Chen Zihan refused. "It's not convenient for you to attend today's banquet."
"Okay!" Ning Yuezhen didn't ask any more questions.
She just told Chen Zi Han that she would also be in the company tonight, and if Chen Zi Han was free, he could come to see her after the event was over.
Today's business volume is already greater than a typical month. After all, after becoming the full distributor of Fosun Changzheng's reagents, major distributors are placing orders with them. Some companies are paying first and then taking delivery, while others hope Zhongtian will ship the goods and then pay before the end of the year.
Ning Yuezhen still wanted to discuss with Chen Zihan what to do specifically.
"If there's nothing going on here tonight, I'll come over and take a look."
Neither of them mentioned being lovers.
Chen Zihan did not make any statement on this matter and ran away taking the opportunity to answer a phone call. Ning Yuezhen felt very uneasy.
She was afraid that Chen Zi Han would refuse, and even more afraid that Chen Zi Han would change his attitude towards her because of this incident, so she was very uneasy.
When Chen Zihan arrived at the private room that Lu Ruorong had booked at Qiantang Hotel, Luo Xiaofei and Zhao Xiaoan were already there.
However, neither of them looked very happy. When they entered, they did not communicate with each other, but sat in silence.
Seeing them come in, Luo Xiaofei and Zhao Xiaoan both stood up.
They probably knew Lu Qinglan's identity, and they knew Li Yunxin's identity even better.
They still didn't dare to be rude to these two people.
Lu Qinglan simply greeted them and then told them the purpose of his visit to Qiantang.
She told Zhao Xiaoan and Luo Xiaofei that she had a large investment in Qiantang and was planning to ask Chen Zihan to help monitor some of the projects. Therefore, she had a lot of things to discuss with him over the next two days. Later, she, Chen Zihan, and Lu Ruorong would discuss possible future collaborations with Li Yunxin.
Lu Qinglan is the elder, and she has a strong aura. Zhao Xiaoan and Luo Xiaofei are still a little nervous when facing her.
Luo Xiaofei and Zhao Xiaoan had just had an argument, and they were a little upset about being ignored tonight.
But after meeting Lu Qinglan, he dared not show any of these negative emotions.
Li Yunxin didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Lu Qinglan.
Only Chen Zihan seemed indifferent to Lu Qinglan's powerful aura.
In fact, he was quite glad that Lu Qinglan and Li Yunxin were present tonight.
If these two women were not there, he really didn't know how to cope.
Lu Qinglan didn't take Luo Xiaofei and Zhao Xiaoan seriously at all. She was in charge of everything that happened tonight.
She decides what dishes to order and what drinks and wine to drink.
"Aunt, what else will we do after dinner?" Chen Zi Han asked Lu Qinglan casually while waiting for the food.
"No plans." Lu Qinglan replied calmly, "Let's chat with Li Yunxin later. She came all the way to China, so she must have something important to discuss. She wouldn't come to see you just because she's crazy about you."
Just one sentence made Chen Zi Han quite embarrassed.
Li Yunxin didn't fully understand what Lu Qinglan meant. She thought Lu Qinglan wanted to express that they would play with her tonight, so she was very happy.
"I'll play with you guys tonight!" She expressed her meaning in stiff Chinese.
In fact, Lu Ruorong was also a little depressed.
She originally thought that with Lu Qinglan around, her influence would definitely be even greater.
Unexpectedly, Lu Qinglan did not help her, but instead made himself the protagonist of the banquet.
"A thief has been brought into the house!" Such a thought actually occurred to her mind.
She also knew that if Lu Qinglan really had some intention of competing with her for Chen Zihan, then the threat posed by Luo Xiaofei, Zhao Xiaoan, and Li Yunxin combined would not be as great as that posed by her aunt.
Would Lu Qinglan, who is ten years older than Chen Zihan, have any intentions towards Chen Zihan?
This is something that Lu Ruorong has always been confused about.
Lu Ruorong originally planned to invite Luo Xiaofei and Zhao Xiaoan out together with Chen Zihan to discuss some things directly.
She hopes that Chen Zihan can make a choice, or give everyone a clear attitude.
That way, she won't have to worry about it.
Luo Xiaofei and Zhao Xiaoan both knew what Lu Ruorong meant, and they also hoped that Chen Zihan would give them a clear attitude.
But the situation tonight seemed to make it impossible to explain this matter clearly.
During dinner, Li Yunxin was the most active.
She had just started learning Chinese, and she even took out a Chinese-Korean dictionary and used it to communicate with people around her in Chinese.
Lu Qinglan's dominance and Li Yunxin's humor greatly diluted the solemn atmosphere of tonight, and Chen Zihan's pressure was reduced again.
He did not choose to sit next to Lu Ruorong during the meal.
It’s not that he didn’t choose, but Lu Qinglan and Li Yunxin sat on either side of her. After he came back from talking to the waiter, it was no longer possible for him to choose to sit next to Lu Ruorong.
Finally, she chose to sit next to Lu Qinglan.
Before dinner, Chen Zi Han was quite worried.
But after the food came, his worries gradually disappeared.
He also cleverly turned the topic to other aspects, mainly talking about the interesting things that happened during his last visit to Seoul.
Li Yunxin immediately joined in on the topic, chattering and criticizing Chen Zihan in halting Chinese for a long time.
What Chen Zihan didn't expect was that as the dinner was drawing to a close, Lu Qinglan whispered in his ear, "I saved your life today, remember to thank me!"
