She said casually, "That’s all I have to offer. If you want them, transfer the money. I’ll send you the bank account number later."
Nie Qingru’s face twitched. She was so angry that she laughed.
Qiao Nian couldn’t be bothered to guess her thoughts. She had already stayed long enough. She picked up her things and turned around to say to the man who had been in the background for the entire process, "I’m leaving."
"So soon?" Lu Zhi expected that the meeting wouldn’t be good, but he didn’t expect it to be so bad.
"Mm," Qiao Nian replied casually, "I’ve already set the conditions. There’s no point in talking anymore."
She had actually only e here to see Nie Qingru’s attitude.
Since she had already seen it, there was no need for her to stay any longer.
Lu Zhi knew her temper and did not ask her to stay. He picked up the office line and made a call. "I’ll get Jian Jin to send you out."
Qiao Nian did not reject his good intentions. She paused and glanced at him. "Thank you."
Her words were polite.
She usually said ’thanks’ to Jian Jin. ’Thank you’ and ’thanks’ seemed almost the same, but the emotions were pletely different.
Lu Zhi felt her distance. He tightened his grip on the receiver before letting go. Then, he looked up with a forced smile. "You don’t have to."
"Okay," Qiao Nian replied. It was unknown if she listened.
Lu Zhi knew that it was not something that could be done in a short time to change the current distant and awkward atmosphere.
He adjusted his mood and made the call.
After a moment, he said in a clear voice, "Ask Assistant Jian to arrange for a chauffeur."
"Okay, CEO Lu." The assistant on the other end of the line quickly responded.
Lu Zhi put down the receiver and looked at the girl again. "Leave the rest to me."
Qiao Nian did not say anything. She looked at him deeply before waving goodbye. "I’m leaving."
Her back view was as unruly as ever.
Lu Zhi did not look away until her figure disappeared from the office, separated into two worlds by the glass door.
Only then did he reluctantly retract his gaze. His calm gaze landed on Nie Qingru, who was still angry. He turned his wheelchair and came forward.
"Empress, now that things have e to this point, everyone is responsible. You can’t get all of them back from the illegal district. Why don’t you choose a few people and transfer the money to her bank account? Everyone can resolve this matter peacefully. How about that?"
Nie Qingru’s sharp gaze landed on his face like a knife. After a while, she squeezed out, "Is this Tian Chen’s attitude?"
Lu Zhi avoided her gaze nonmittally. "No, this only represents my personal suggestion!"
They were all adults and smart people.
Lu Zhi represented Tian Chen.
When he said that he was only representing his own opinion, he was just taking into account the deep cooperative relationship between the two parties.
Since Lu Zhi had said that, it was obvious that if she and Qiao Nian had a conflict in the future, Tian Chen would take Qiao Nian’s side.
Nie Qingru’s expression grew ugly. She had been controlling her emotions for the entire afternoon, but now, she really could not control them anymore. "Hehe, I understand!"
She picked up her handbag and said through clenched teeth, "... I’m leaving!"
Lu Zhi did not mention getting someone to send her off. He sat in the wheelchair like a mountain. However, his tone sounded a little polite.
"Then, I won’t see you out."
"Hmph."
Nie Qing waved her hand and walked away without looking back.
