"This..."
The receptionist was visibly embarrassed.
Having these two distinguished guests wait outside, and if Mr. Xia found out about it, he would surely reprimand her severely...
"Don't worry, miss, you won't be in trouble. If Xia Yanyu dares to say a word to you, just tell her I told you to do this."
"This..."
The receptionist blushed and, not daring to contradict Xu Fan's wishes, nodded and said, "Thank you, then, I, I will leave now."
After the receptionist left, Su Shouzi looked at Xu Fan with so confusion.
"Master, shouldn't we find a place to sit and wait?"
Su Shouzi knew these kinds of board etings all too well; he guessed it would take at least another half an hour before Xia Yanyu could possibly co out.
Just standing here like this was indeed too exhausting...
Xu Fan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Xia Yanyu won't take long to co out."
He had just curiously glanced inside the eting hall. Judging by the tense atmosphere inside, Xu Fan guessed that Xia Yanyu wouldn't last long before she had to co out.
He didn't know what proposal Xia Yanyu had presented this ti, but at the eting table, absolutely no one agreed with her proposal.
These directors were all veterans from her father's era, and they were not very impressed with Xia Yanyu, seeing her as an inexperienced young lady.
This ti, they were all against her; with just her voice, how could she contend with these more than ten people?
Just as Xu Fan had predicted, before Su Shouzi could ask, the eting room door creaked open, and a weary Xia Yanyu walked out.
Today, Xia Yanyu was dressed in a black business suit, which usually enhanced a sense of powerful femininity, but at this mont, it still could not hide the disappointnt on her face.
Xia Yanyu was likely still pondering how to persuade those directors who disagreed with her. She didn't notice Xu Fan and Su Shouzi standing in front of her.
The perfu she wore was still the sa one he had slled in the hospital room a while back. Watching her walk towards him in a daze, Xu Fan sneered and said, "Xia Yanyu, you seem very unhappy?"
"Hmm?"
Startled by the familiar voice, Xia Yanyu looked up in shock to see Xu Fan standing in front of her and froze.
"Xu Fan, you..."
These past few days, she had been unable to contact Xu Fan and was worried about his injuries.
Even though he was seriously injured, he had left the hospital just a day after being admitted. Xia Yanyu knew the reason better than anyone else.
It was Xu Fan's dislike for her.
Now looking up at Xu Fan, Xia Yanyu couldn't help but ask, "How is your injury, is it better...?"
"..."
Today, coming with Su Shouzi, Xu Fan had just wanted to aggravate Xia Yanyu, but sohow, the way she looked at him made it hard for him to be harsh.
Could it be that she had been concerned about him all these days?
"Don't worry, I'm very well."
Giving Xia Yanyu an expressionless glance, Xu Fan then said, "Your board eting is almost over, right? Shouldn't we also talk about our business deal?"
"Uh..."
Only now did Xia Yanyu notice Su Shouzi, who stood respectfully beside Xu Fan, and her eyes beca sowhat surprised.
So he was also from Lingyan Pavilion...
This contract with Su Shouzi was crucial for her.
Yet such an important person also had to bend low before Xu Fan.
Thinking about her previous mockery of Xu Fan, Xia Yanyu's lips couldn't help but curl into a bitter smile.
Could it be that I really made a mistake...
"Xu Fan, sorry, you might need to wait a bit longer. I, I will go wash my face first..."
Su Shouzi looked at Xia Yanyu heading towards the restroom with a strange expression and couldn't help but frown.
Why does it feel like the relationship between this woman and our Family Head is more than just enemies...
"Family Head, how about we co back tomorrow?"
From Su Shouzi's experience, Xia Yanyu was likely to botch today's board eting, and whether she would be able to decide on the contract later was another matter.
He thought it through, not wanting to waste any more ti here. They would look into the situation at Xia Group tomorrow.
"Sigh..."
Xu Fan seed to consider sothing, then sighed and shook his head, "No rush to leave."
"You wait for outside, I will go in and take a look."
"This?"
As Xu Fan spoke, he walked over to the eting room door by himself, causing Su Shouzi to be taken aback.
This is Xia Group's board eting; you're an outsider, what crowd are you joining...
But for Su Shouzi to actually block Xu Fan, he didn't have the courage, so he obediently waited by the door of the eting room.
...
Pushing open the door and stepping into the eting room hall, pairs of surprised eyes turned towards Xu Fan.
Clearly, they were curious about how Xia Yanyu could have returned so quickly.
But seeing that it was a stranger, a young man walking into the eting room now, pairs of eyes began to frown and look displeased.
Seated at the conference round table were all high-level shareholders of Xia Group. Under the cold gazes of these sharp-dressed folks, Xu Fan casually walked towards Xia Yanyu's seat.
Decades of business struggle, who among the present wasn't a seasoned old pro?
To soone like Xu Fan, they only needed a glance to make him shiver with fright.
Yet at this mont, this young man, under the pressure of everyone's gaze, didn't even frown slightly, appearing overly calm...
The tranquil eting room suddenly beca filled with whispers, everyone curious about where this guy had co from.
Soon, Xu Fan reached Xia Yanyu's position. Squinting his eyes and with a slight smile, he swept his gaze over the group of old pros and boldly sat down.
"This?"
Xu Fan's action made everyone incredulously widen their eyes!
It should be noted, this position belonged to the president.
This brash young lad, didn't he also have too much gall?
Smack!
Not long after, an angry slap on the table was heard! A middle-aged man at the conference table, face ashen, glared at Xu Fan.
"Kid, who let you in?"
The aura of authority naturally erged, seemingly materializing to press down on Xu Fan.
Xu Fan leaned back in his chair, squinted his eyes, and looked back at the man.
"The door was not closed; I ca in by myself."
"Quite curious about how you managed to upset Xia Yanyu like that. Why not tell about it so I can learn a thing or two?"
God knows where this tactless new employee ca from. At this mont, looking at Xu Fan's audacious stare, the man coldly huffed, "This is the board eting of Xia Group. You, a re boy, have no right to be here."
"Now, get out imdiately."
