66 Don'st Blame Me for Not Warning You

Lu Jinnan kept silent on the other end of the line.

Fu Huai'an hung up the phone.

The car slowly started its engine.

Fu Huai'an put out the cigar in his hands, rolled up the windows, and closed his eyes to take a brief rest.

Lin Nuan had ended her live broadcast for the morning news. As she was removing her makeup in the makeup room, Miss Xia's assistant Yang Yuze came to inform Lin Nuan to stay a while longer… there was a lunch meeting at noon and the chief director had especially called for Miss Xia to attend it together with Lin Nuan.

"Not sure if it was the sponsor or the chief director who named you. Miss Xia just told me to remind you to be prepared for the lunch meeting this afternoon."

Lin Nuan held the cotton soaked with makeup remover in her hand and smiled at Yang Yuze. "Help me thank Miss Xia!"

Lin Nuan had been inwardly prepared for that situation, yet with it actually happening she couldn't help feeling a bit of panic.

If the sponsor was the one who wanted Lin Nuan to attend, the meaning behind it was self-explanatory.

If it was the chief director who named her to attend the meeting, then he must be trying to do justice to his niece. If so… the sponsor she had to face that afternoon would be a problem.

No matter what, it was already quite rare for Miss Xia to let somebody come and remind her in advance.

Lin Nuan wasn't completely unable to get out of a situation like that. She was allergic to sweet potatoes—she even had a bag of sweet potato powder in her purse. As long as she could control the dosage it would be understandable if she couldn't attend the meeting when she started showing allergic symptoms.

But Lin Nuan was clear inside that she couldn't use the tactic very often, because, in the scenario that she genuinely did need it, it would essentially be useless. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting.

Luckily, today's meeting was at noon and not in the evening.

Lin Nuan removed her makeup and dozed off in the makeup room.

By the time Miss Xia came to call for Lin Nuan, she noticed that she was wearing a most ordinary pale pink V-collar shirt as well as black long pants with white shoes. She didn't have any makeup on and had tied her hair into a neat ponytail. She didn't intentionally make herself look glamorous and attractive just because she was attending the sponsored lunch meeting.

Miss Xia grew more and more fond of Lin Nuan.

Lin Nuan was indeed smart… and grounded—she didn't consider taking shortcuts.

"I've heard that the new sponsor this time came from overseas. He's relatively young and since he advanced his career abroad we have no idea what his personality is like. Later, be more open-minded during the meeting. I know you're smart, but it wouldn't be wise for you to offend the sponsor by playing smart…"

Miss Xia said to her as Lin Nuan followed her into the elevator.

The "smart" that Miss Xia mentioned may have been a reference to her slapping Shen Weiwei yesterday.

MIss Xia pressed the elevator and continued, "This is your first time accompanying a sponsor in a meal. Be sure of your alcohol tolerance and don't be a hero. Otherwise, don't blame me when the management sees you as an official escort…"

Lin Nuan nodded. "I understand, Miss Xia. Thank you."

She was able to discern the good from the bad in people. Although Miss Xia looked cold and spoke with a sharp tone, Lin Nuan could still tell that she meant well.

She clutched her square purse and decided to say that she was allergic to alcohol.

Lin Nuan knew that despite that, the leaders and sponsors on their high horses would still persuade her to drink. Men would be men. She hadn't heard of such situations.

Miss Xia was right. It was Lin Nuan's first time accompanying sponsors for a meetup meal. If she pulled off the alcohol intolerance card she could at least avoid some of these meetups in the future.

With a plan in her heart, Lin Nuan felt much more at ease.

The chief director booked the lunch at the Manjiang tower.

Manjiang tower had a hundred years' worth of history in Haicheng and was both an icon and symbol of the city's architecture. It was located at the Qujiang business zone near the sea.
