Leng Zimo nodded slightly.
The tall man turned and left, his eyes flashing with a cold light as they landed on the docunts in front of him.
The intercom on the desk rang.
Leng Zimo lifted his hand to press the speakerphone button, "Speak!"
"President Leng, the eting materials you requested have been sent to your email!" Ailin’s voice ca through.
"Good! You can all go off work now. Also, prepare yourself, as you’ll be flying to Paris with tomorrow!"
After hanging up the phone, he slid the mouse, opened his email inbox, and carefully reviewed the eting records within.
This ti, he was going to sign an official contract with Daigao Company. To secure the greatest benefits for the company, he had to be thoroughly prepared.
...
...
In a supermarket not far from World City.
Luo Xiaoqian pushed a shopping cart around the ingredients section, but she seed absent-minded.
After a fierce internal debate, she had still co near World City. Yet, she still didn’t have the courage to actually go inside.
To prevent the sa event from last night from happening again, she had made special preparations: a baseball cap, wide-rimd glasses, a tracksuit... At this mont, she looked like just another indistinct girl lost in the crowd.
Stopping, she picked up a pack of noodles and mumbled to herself.
"What should I do, how can I make him grow tired of ?"
She had asked herself this question over a hundred tis on the way here, and so far, she had yet to find an answer.
Looking at the shopping cart which had unconsciously filled up with ingredients, she sighed helplessly.
How could she carry all this if she kept buying?
Turning around, she pushed the cart to the checkout counter and took out her wallet, only to find a few coins left inside.
The last bit of money in her bank card had been spent on a new phone. Now, she was completely penniless.
"The total is two hundred and sixteen yuan!" announced the cashier.
"Charge it to the card," Luo Xiaoqian said as she pulled out the golden card from her wallet and handed it over.
The cashier’s eyes clearly lit up at the sight of the golden card. The slouch in her posture disappeared, she stood up straight, and even the smile on her face deepened a few degrees.
After completing the transaction, she didn’t forget to say goodbye politely.
"Please take care of your items, have a good day!"
Luo Xiaoqian just nodded politely. She knew very well that their respectfulness and politeness were not for her, but for the card in her hand.
This world, just like Lu Hao, is all the sa! All the sa!
Thinking of Lu Hao, her heart ached anew.
Carrying the heavy bags with difficulty, she made her way toward the supermarket exit, picking up the pace as she caught a whiff of the strange stench in the air.
Rushing down the steps, she suddenly paused, turned around, and walked back against the unpleasant sll towards the crowded stinky tofu stall at the supermarket’s front entrance.
"Give five skewers of deep-fried stinky tofu..." She forcefully suppressed her nausea, "No, make it ten!"
The vendor swiftly bagged the freshly fried stinky tofu and handed it to her.
"Co back again, mine is homade stinky tofu, absolutely no fakes!" The older sister, who was already advancing in age, with rough hands and face, smiled sincerely at her, "Be careful, don’t burn your hands!"
After thanking her, Luo Xiaoqian, carrying the freshly fried stinky tofu, walked briskly towards World City not far away.
The whole way, the "fragrance" wafted!
She walked into the World City complex, found Block A, took out the keys from her pocket, opened the security door of Unit 1, and arrived in front of the elevator.
