The Supreme Martial Expert of the Female CEO Chapter 38 - 38 38 Unexpected Encounter

38: Chapter 38: Unexpected Encounter 38: Chapter 38: Unexpected Encounter Having finished a day’s work, Yun Hanrui rubbed her eyebrows and glanced at her watch, realizing it was almost ti for her eting with Brother Lin.

As she stood up, a strong hunger panged from her stomach.

“Cough cough!” Yun Hanrui held her chest, her other hand frantically searching through the drawer.

After finding a bottle of stomach dicine, she took a pill and the pain in her stomach was eased.

During her university years, due to her neglect of sleep and food for studies and research, Yun Hanrui developed severe stomach issues.

If she delayed als even slightly, unbearable pain would ensue, thankfully the company’s specially developed dicine ca to her rescue, or else she wouldn’t have been able to handle it.

A short while later, Yun Hanrui’s complexion improved, and only then did she touch up her makeup before heading downstairs.

Downstairs, Lin Zhijie had already parked the car at the company entrance: “Hanrui, over here!”

“Shall we first have so Western food at Candlelight Restaurant, and then go see a movie?” Lin Zhijie asked for Yun Hanrui’s opinion in the car.

“I have no problem, whatever you arrange is fine!” Yun Hanrui said with a slight smile.

Candlelight Restaurant was a famous Western restaurant in Yanjing, owned by an Italian who was rumored to have once been the head chef at a Michelin three-star restaurant.

No one knew why he settled in Yanjing and opened a Western restaurant.

Because of its authentic taste and elegant style, it had beco a favorite among the city’s white-collar workers.

Soon, the two of them arrived at Candlelight Restaurant.

Accompanied by the elegant sound of a violin, Lin Zhijie parked the car, and they proceeded to the hall with the waiter’s guidance.

“I’m sorry, all the private rooms are fully booked, we only have seats in the hall, is that okay?” the waiter asked.

Lin Zhijie frowned.

Although those who ca to eat Western food were generally upper-middle class and wouldn’t behave loudly, he had hoped for a more private space since it was rare for the two of them to go out alone.

However, Yun Hanrui was feeling so discomfort in her stomach again, so she said, “If there are no private rooms available, eating in the hall is just the sa!”

They sat down and Lin Zhijie told the waiter: “Two orders of the secret recipe foie gras, two steaks, and two cups of Blue Mountain Coffee.”

“Okay, please wait a mont, it will be ready shortly!” The waiter took the nus and then bowed before leaving.

“Xiao Rui, I’ve noticed you’ve been in a bit of a mood lately!” Lin Zhijie said gently, “Have you encountered any problems you can’t resolve?”

“Not at all!” Yun Hanrui forced a smile and replied, “It might be because my work has been quite heavy lately.

After all, the research is at a critical juncture, and I might have too much on my mind and haven’t rested properly.”

Yun Hanrui did not wish to inform Lin Zhijie about Ling Feng’s matters.

On one hand, Yun Hanrui felt there was no need; once she told him, it might lead to unwanted complications, and she believed she had the capacity to resolve the issue herself.

On the other hand, their relationship remained in an unspoken understanding.

Although Yun Hanrui had a good impression of Lin Zhijie, he had never confessed his feelings, and she worried that this matter might affect the tacit understanding between them.

“To have such a large company’s nurous matters weighing on your shoulders, indeed, is quite a burdenso task!” Lin Zhijie said, “Xiao Rui, it’s just a pity that my expertise is only in scientific research and I can’t be of more help.”

Yun Hanrui replied with a smile, “Brother Lin, your decision to forsake the superior conditions in Arica to co and help is sothing I am deeply grateful for!

You know, the departnt you are in charge of is the most important in the entire company!”

Lin Zhijie responded with a slight smile, “Hearing you say that makes feel sowhat better.

However, Xiao Rui, now is also the ti to cultivate so of your own trusted aides and foundation.

At least soone should be able to help you with so of the company managent matters.”

Stirring her coffee cup, Yun Hanrui said, “I’ve had the sa thought.

I want Xiaofei to take over so things.

With her capability, it’s a bit below her talents to be my secretary!”

Lin Zhijie’s gaze flickered, “Oh, so you’ve already planned it out.

How do you intend to arrange Sun Xiaofei’s position?”

“I’m thinking of placing her in the International Marketing Departnt,” Yun Hanrui explained, “Now that the company is heading towards internationalization, aligning with international standards is extrely important.

Not just our products, our research also needs to cooperate with so of the world’s major research institutes, so I will be focusing on developing this area in the future.

I don’t feel assured handing it to others.

Once Xiaofei matures a bit, I will arrange for her to follow up on this matter.”

“I hadn’t realized you already had everything so thoroughly planned!” Lin Zhijie said, reassured, “I believe that under your leadership, Chaoyang Biotechnology will certainly beco a globally recognized multinational enterprise!”

Yun Hanrui blushed slightly upon hearing Lin Zhijie’s complints, “Brother Lin, you flatter .

I rely wish to use biotechnology to benefit humanity as much as possible!

If our research project succeeds, we might be able to overco so stubborn diseases and relieve many people from the tornt of illness!”

Lin Zhijie nodded and said, “Xiao Rui, you are truly kindhearted…

By the way, when I was conducting sample research, I ca across so data from over a decade ago, but the ideas and research results were very advanced — how did these data co about?”

“Oh, those must be the results of the research led by my Uncle Ling,” Yun Hanrui recalled, picturing a thin, middle-aged man with a cheerful face.

“And where is he now?” Lin Zhijie asked eagerly, “Soone able to carry out such advanced research and reach cutting-edge conclusions sixteen or seventeen years ago must be a genius!

If our research could have his assistance, we would definitely make breakthrough progress!

Even if I were to beco his assistant, I would have no complaints!”

Yun Hanrui was sowhat surprised; Lin Zhijie, in her eyes, was an extrely proud man!

Of course, he had the rits to be proud.

Not yet thirty, he had already been exceptionally employed by Arica’s top research institution, his research findings featured heavily on the International Journal of Biology, and he had even received praise from a Nobel laureate in biology!

“Uncle Ling is no longer with us,” Yun Hanrui said softly.

Abruptly, she seed to see Ling Feng’s smiling face before her eyes.

Why would I think of him?

Yun Hanrui shook her head gently, as if trying to sway Ling Feng out of her mind.

Lin Zhijie sighed softly, “What a sha!

But Han Rui, may I have a look at Senior Ling’s research report?

When I tried to access it, I found it classified as top secret, and I don’t have the clearance.

You know , when it cos to such things, I simply can’t help myself!”

Yun Hanrui nodded, “Alright, I’ll talk to my dad about it when I get back.

These materials are all kept by him, and even I can’t view them at will.”

At that mont, Yun Hanrui’s eyebrows knit slightly because, from her angle, she saw a golden couple walking in — it was none other than Ling Feng and Liu Tingyu.
