In the Lamborghini.
Tangya had just hung up the phone.
She didn’t ntion the slight frustration from Jiai’s finance departnt. In any case, Luofeng was with her.
About five minutes later, Luofeng drove to the bank.
It was the height of the New Year holiday. The bank entrance was packed with cars; clearly, many people were there to handle their banking.
Luofeng parked by the roadside and said, "Auntie, you go in first. I’ll park at the bank across the street!"
"Mhm!" Tangya nodded.
The Agricultural Bank was diagonally opposite Gongsang Bank, just over a hundred ters away. However, the Agricultural Bank branch across the street wasn’t staffed that day, so parking there was fine.
The mont Tangya stepped into the bank, she spotted a finance officer from Jiai. Tangya greeted her politely, "Xiaoyu, Happy New Year!"
The finance officer from Jiai Construction Company was nad Lin Xiaoyu.
Lin Xiaoyu, her face etched with displeasure, snapped, "It’s the New Year holiday! Couldn’t you have co a bit earlier? If we get this done quickly, we can all go ho and celebrate sooner!"
Before entering, Tangya had checked the ti. Her appointnt was for nine o’clock, and it was only eight fifty-five when she arrived at the door; she was perfectly on ti. She’d even hurried Luofeng along when he was admiring her figure, hadn’t she?
Lin Xiaoyu continued her tirade, "You banks are so dismissive of your clients! Jiai is a key partner, you know. Couldn’t you have been ready and waiting for !"
"This holiday is supposed to be enjoyable, and now it’s ruined by these tedious matters!" Lin Xiaoyu grumbled. "We’re having our family reunion dinner today. How long will you take to process this?"
Tangya discreetly glanced at Luofeng, who wasn’t far off, and replied, "It will probably take about two hours to complete."
"Two hours? Why so long?" Lin Xiaoyu glared.
"Because there are over fifty thousand accounts involved in these transfers. We need to..."
Tangya then proceeded to explain the situation in detail.
Lin Xiaoyu listened to Tangya’s explanation and then said, "I’ll just authorize you. You handle the transfers yourselves, send the results on WeChat later, and then bring the corporate card and U-Shield to my house!"
"Well..." Tangya said, looking troubled. "Xiaoyu, that’s against procedure. We require you to be present in person during the transfers!"
"What difference does it make if I’m here or not?" Lin Xiaoyu complained. "Making a fuss over this during the New Year! Why wasn’t this handled earlier? Tangya, we’ve known each other for ages; I trust you. Just get my authorization, do the transfers, and send the final report!"
Suddenly, Luofeng interjected, "And what if they transfer the money to soone else?"
Lin Xiaoyu, not realizing Luofeng was addressing her, instinctively replied, "How could they possibly transfer to..." She stopped mid-sentence.
Lin Xiaoyu realized her mistake and turned to Luofeng.
Luo Lin had previously introduced Luofeng to everyone at Jiai Construction Company. Lin Xiaoyu naturally recognized him and knew he was the heir apparent.
"Little General Luo? Happy New Year!" Lin Xiaoyu quickly changed her tune and greeted him.
"Director Lin, Happy New Year," Luofeng replied calmly.
"Little General Luo, I..."
Luofeng cut her off. "I’m very sorry, Director Lin. It was my oversight to add unnecessary work for you on a special holiday like the New Year. That’s why I’ve co personally to handle this. I apologize for troubling you."
Lin Xiaoyu looked sowhat awkward.
"Alright, Director Lin. Please give Jiai’s corporate account card, bank card, and U-Shield," Luofeng said. "I’ll handle it. You can go back to your holiday."
"This..." Lin Xiaoyu hesitated.
Luofeng imdiately called Jiai and explained the situation. He didn’t ntion any problems with Lin Xiaoyu, only that he would be taking over the transfer process from her.
"Director Lin, could you please take this call?" Luofeng handed her the phone.
After about half a minute, Lin Xiaoyu handed the phone back.
Luofeng took it. Luo Lin’s voice ca through, "Son, handle the rest yourself."
"Got it, Dad!" Luofeng replied.
After the call ended, Luofeng looked at Lin Xiaoyu.
Embarrassed, Lin Xiaoyu handed Jiai Construction Company’s corporate account card and U-Shield to Luofeng. She said politely, "Thank you, Little General Luo!"
Luofeng nodded. "Not at all, Director Lin. Please, go back and enjoy your family reunion."
"Little General Luo, Happy New Year!" Lin Xiaoyu said with a parting wish.
After Lin Xiaoyu left, Luofeng turned to Tangya. "Auntie, shall we get started on the transfers?"
Tangya nodded. "Yes. The preliminary work on our end will take about an hour. Would you like to wait in the VIP room?"
"No problem!" Luofeng said.
Tangya led Luofeng to the VIP room, made him a cup of tea, then said, "I need to get started on the work. Please make yourself comfortable here."
"Okay, Auntie!" Luofeng nodded, his gaze lingering on Tangya’s attractive figure. Tangya blushed faintly and left.
As soon as Tangya exited the VIP room, Luofeng imdiately contacted Luo Lin on WeChat. He recounted exactly what had happened with Lin Xiaoyu, without adding or omitting anything.
Lin Xiaoyu was Jiai’s finance director. Entrusting her personally with a transaction exceeding 50 million was a sign of significant trust.
Yet, just to attend her family reunion, she had planned to abandon her responsibilities? First by authorizing Gongsang Bank, and then leaving imdiately? Wasn’t she concerned about potential issues, just as he had pointed out?
Luo Lin replied via WeChat: "Sigh, Little Lin has been with Jiai for twelve years. I’d heard rumors about her having so issues before but never addressed them, hoping she’d correct herself. I didn’t expect it to beco this serious!"
Luofeng typed back: "So, Dad, how do you plan to handle this?"
Luo Lin: "Let’s discuss it after the New Year. For now, let her enjoy the holiday."
Luofeng: "Okay, got it!"
Luo Lin: "Are you coming ho for lunch?"
Luofeng: "Probably not. Aren’t you guys eating out?"
Luo Lin: "Alright, Son! But you have to be back tonight, right?"
Luofeng: "Definitely back tonight!"
After finishing his WeChat conversation with his father, Luofeng began checking gold prices. This was what he was most concerned about right now.
「Around ten o’clock in the morning」
Luofeng received a WeChat ssage from Bai Ningbing.
Bai Ningbing: "Did you co by this morning?"
????? Luofeng was flabbergasted. He typed back: "You were drunk yesterday. Are you still not awake?"
That beauty... hadn’t she responded to his kiss? They’d been kissing passionately for several minutes, hadn’t they? And now she was asking if he’d even been there? Was she really that out of it?
Bai Ningbing suddenly rembered: "Oh, oh, oh, I recall now! You rascal, taking advantage of first thing in the morning! I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn’t get back to sleep. I only managed to drift off around six this morning. Hangovers are the worst!"
What a silly girl, Luofeng thought.
Bai Ningbing: "Where are you now?"
Luofeng imdiately sent her his current location.
