The office director responded, "Not at all! Oh, it might be because your group is preparing to invest and carry out a project here, we’ve inford the villages to get ready before you arrived. This is the first ti in 10 years that our small town has attracted such a big company to invest."
"Tomorrow when we go down from the town, you’ll be able to feel the enthusiasm of our people here," the office director said, slightly changing the subject.
However, Xu Ruowei feels otherwise upon hearing this, which deepens her suspicions. She can’t help but have a big question and concern in her heart: Will this affect the progress of the project?
...
In the office.
Song Ziyu is still frowning, but fortunately, the two influential cases have been concluded.
It’s just that, she never expected Xu Ruowei to arrive so early!
There’s also a specialty dish in the town tonight, and Song Ziyu had already made arrangents; she called them to have a welco dinner to cleanse the dust from their travels tonight.
After hanging up the phone, she still hasn’t seen Su Tianqing.
She has never personally experienced the sadness between life and death, and naturally cannot comprehend the heartache that cos with it.
This ti, the consecutive two cases have also made her mature a bit.
In the past, she always confronted Su Tianqing head-on, never yielding an inch.
At this mont, she can actually empathize with the bitterness in his heart, such a proud man who never shares his pain with anyone.
Song Ziyu has nearly finished dealing with the docunts in her hand, and then she walks out the door.
As she walks, she arrives at the edge of the spring pool and sees a lonely figure sitting by the pond.
He likes to wear casual clothes, not keen on the confines of a suit, or perhaps that was also the reason she studied economics and wanted to beco a professional manager back then!
Is it possible that subconsciously, she wanted to help share the responsibility of his work?
She walks up to him and sits beside him. He remains silent, looking at the clean spring water reflecting the sky, as beautiful as blue velvet.
"I’m sorry!" Song Ziyu says softly, the first and most sincere ti she has ever apologized to him on behalf of the Song Family’s shortcomings!
Ironically, it is Su Tianqing who cos as a surprise. He has a dogtail grass in his mouth, which seems slightly out of character with his indifferent and haughty temperant.
He looks at the woman who has sat down beside him, who is also quietly gazing at the water.
He understands what she ans!
She has always been a proud woman herself, never believing that the Song Family owed anyone anything. Therefore, she has always been above it all, whenever he ca to collect debts.
Maybe after the incidents with Chen Hui and Gan Zi, she has beco sowhat silent.
"Song Ziyu..." Su Tianqing glances at her, "What’s this about? Suddenly being so polite and docile, I’m not used to it!"
Song Ziyu slightly curves her lips, "Su Tianqing, I’ve never really considered that the Song Family, or I myself, owe you anything. I’ve always thought that only my dad and our company owed you sothing. I don’t know if my dad has ever apologized to you, but I still feel that I need to say it to you!"
This is the truly mature Song Ziyu; she’s not afraid to admit her mistakes, but in the face of life, one really is so vulnerable.
"Because, for the mistake my dad made, as his daughter, I should bear it!" Song Ziyu looks at him intently, "I love my dad, just as you love her!"
Su Tianqing really didn’t expect Song Ziyu to be so forthright!
Or maybe, that’s exactly why he fell for her!
"Alright, I’ve said my piece. I should go back now!" Song Ziyu stands up, "Did you know? Xu Ruowei arrived earlier than expected!"
"Did she hear sothing?" Su Tianqing frowned slightly.
Song Ziyu seed quite at ease: "It’s impossible to keep it a secret. Director Chen from the office said that when she checked into the hotel, she asked if sothing had happened in the town. Of course, Director Chen kept it from her."
Su Tianqing also stood up, "She is your senior sister from the sa school, both graduated from the Economics and Managent program. You have to be careful with her!"
Song Ziyu nodded, "I will!"
"I thought you were coming to sit with for a while!" Su Tianqing walked with her towards the hotel, "Who knew this sly woman would co so early!"
"Su Tianqing, can’t you watch your mouth?" Song Ziyu huffed.
Instead, Su Tianqing sneered: "Wow, such sisterly affection among schoolmates! Even brings up! Hasn’t this woman always liked to play around with n in the business circle, don’t you know that?"
"That’s soone’s private life, why are you ddling in it!" Song Ziyu was speechless, used to Su Tianqing’s sharp tongue by now.
Su Tianqing grabbed her hand, but Song Ziyu shook it off, "Walk properly, don’t ss around!"
"Song Ziyu, you ca just to say sorry, without anything substantial!" Su Tianqing snorted.
"Nothing!" Song Ziyu responded directly.
"How about a kiss?" Su Tianqing looked at her red lips.
Her red lips, carefully made up, shone with an enticing luster.
Song Ziyu pushed him away with one hand: "Su Tianqing, stay away from !"
As the two of them were shoving each other, they saw two familiar figures walking side by side.
Xu Ruowei and Gan Zi were walking on the street outside the hotel. The hotels in the small town were very simple, unlike the luxurious and extravagant ones in the city.
However, their appearance made it seem much more glamorous.
While Xu Ruowei was staying at the hotel, she and her assistant were discussing the town’s affairs, always feeling that sothing was off.
"There must have been so major incident in town recently, right?" Xu Ruowei said with a certain tone: "According to my observation, there seem to be more patrol officers in town than in other towns."
Her assistant was not as sensitive: "General Manager Xu, isn’t it nothing? To enhance the town’s security and reassure tourists, we are here to invest after all. They wouldn’t dare to take it lightly! Surely they consider our safety, and so the town decided to increase the number of police officers."
Xu Ruowei’s eyelids twitched, she stroked her forehead, and fell silent.
"As you can see, the scenery here is beautiful, and you can experience the simplicity of the local customs. There really doesn’t seem to be a need to reinforce police presence to maintain order," the assistant comforted Xu Ruowei with a slight smile: "General Manager Xu, don’t worry. Anyway, it’s not a bad thing to have more police in town, is it?"
When Xu Ruowei ca out of the hotel and ran into Gan Zi, she cheerfully approached and called out: "Professor Gan..."
Strictly speaking, she wasn’t Professor Gan’s student; she was his junior sister, studying the sa Economics and Managent program.
Gan Zi stopped, a breezy and bright presence, and nodded slightly, "Miss Xu..."
"So distant, just call Ruowei!" Xu Ruowei’s tone carried a hint of coquetry, "I’m also a student of A University, your junior sister!"
Gan Zi smiled faintly, acknowledging her.
"Professor Gan, my eyelid has been twitching. My mother says, left for wealth, right for disaster..." Xu Ruowei said in a teasing tone: "Oh my mom, still treats like a three-year-old!"
Xu Ruowei and Song Ziyu were different types. Both were strong career-oriented won, but Xu Ruowei was like a social butterfly, while Song Ziyu was the composed type!
Standing not too far away, Su Tianqing saw this scene and snorted: "Song Ziyu, see that? Your Professor Gan has attracted another woman!"
Song Ziyu obviously saw it too, Xu Ruowei was radiant and charming in front of Gan Zi, like a blue sky, very bright.
