Chu Mengyao asked in concern, "Have you eaten lunch?"
"Not yet. Why are you inviting me?" Fu Yi teased her.
"So President Fu wants to eat lunch?" Chu Mengyao's voice was light and full of smiles.
"That's a good idea. Then, can Miss Chu treat me for lunch?" Fu Yi said in all seriousness.
Chu Mengyao looked at the middle ranking leader who was eating in the conference room, "I was a bit busy today and was in a meeting all the time. "Next time, eat it."
"What are you going to have for lunch?" Fu Yi asked in concern.
"A box lunch." Chu Mengyao casually replied.
"Don't always eat box lunch. It's not good for your health." Fu Yi was a little worried.
"Once in a while, it doesn't matter."
"Let me treat you to a meal tonight." Fu Yi invited.
"That's hard to say. I'll call you when I have time." Chu Mengyao did not dare to answer him with certainty. She didn't know how long this meeting would take to end.
Just then, Bai Xue walked out of the conference room and called for her.
Chu Mengyao only said that she was going to hold a meeting, then closed the phone.
Hearing the blind voice on the phone, Fu Yi shook his head helplessly. Wasn't this little girl being a little too impatient?
The person in charge sent by the Hundred Great Group was Director Zhang. He looked very gentle and refined.
When he saw Chu Zhiruo, Director Zhang was very rude, "This project has always been handled by the Miss Chu. She has a rather good understanding of this project, and we get along very well. Although we have an initial intention to cooperate, we would like to reconsider the need for cooperation if you decide to switch people. "
Chu Zhiruo felt extremely awkward when she heard this, she could only explain in a euphemistic manner that she was the person in charge of the company, and discussing the matter of cooperation with him would be the same. However, Director Zhang's attitude was very unyielding, not letting up at all.
For the sake of the project being able to continue, although Chu Zhiruo was not happy, the rewards for cooperating was extremely generous. There was nothing Chu Zhiruo could do but to pass the responsibility of the project to Chu Mengyao. When Chu Mengyao and Director Zhang first started their project, Chu Zhiruo was present as well, but the other party had completely ignored her existence. It was as if they had not heard her suggestion at all.
had told Mengyao that she had to finish discussing this project, but she himself did not want to go.
She had seen Director Zhang before. When she had first met Xiaoyiran to negotiate cooperation, Director Zhang had also been present at the scene. He had also communicated with her on some matters regarding cooperation.
They were meeting to finalize the details.
The meeting went on very slowly, and the details were discussed in great detail. It was only at eight in the evening that the meeting ended. Chu Zhiruo reserved a table in the hotel and arranged a meal for Director Zhang and the other related personnel. At a time like this, Chu Mengyao would definitely accompany him.
She could only find an opening and send a message to Fu Yi, "I have to eat dinner tonight, I'll give you a call later."
Looking at the message sent by Chu Mengyao, Fu Yi felt a little depressed. Looking at the dishes on the table, he replied helplessly, "You seem to be busier than I am."
She half-jokingly sent a text message, "In order to survive, I feel really helpless!"
Fu Yi replied without hesitation, "I'll raise you."
Although it was very sweet, she didn't want to depend on others to live. "I don't want to be a parasite!"
This little girl was trying too hard. She had to consider the feelings of her boyfriend. Fu Yi thought about it and sent a message, "I will wait for you, drink less."
"Okay, I miss you."
Seeing the message from Chu Mengyao, Fu Yi could not help but laugh.
"Director Zhang, did Director Xiao not come this time?" Chu Mengyao asked.
She and Xiaoyiran had once talked about wanting to use the infant products of Chu's as a display and promotion device in the supermarkets under the Hundred Great Group, but Xiaoyiran didn't give them a clear answer.
"Director Xiao has already arrived in H City. It's just that he has some matters on hand and did not come today." If things go well, he should come to the meeting tomorrow. "
Hearing that Xiaoyiran had come to City H, Chu Mengyao was very happy. She had already made the plan of entering the supermarket, so she was waiting for him to take a look when she saw him. No matter what the result was, at least it was an opportunity.
After the meal, Chu Zhiruo had initially arranged for the singing segment, but Director Zhang rejected it due to his tired body. After they had brought Director Zhang to the hotel, Chu Zhiruo had Uncle Huang come to send them home.
"Aunt, I still have some matters to attend to. I've made an appointment with a friend to discuss some matters. I'll return to the party later." It was only nine o'clock, and she still wanted to see Fu Yi.
Chu Zhiruo was confused, "It's already so late, what customer wants to meet tonight?"
Chu Mengyao did not answer, but laughed and said, "I'll be going home around 12."
"Who are you meeting?" Chu Zhiruo looked like she wanted to get to the bottom of this.
"I have an appointment with Ai Ting, didn't you see it before?" Chu Mengyao casually made up an excuse, "She just came back from a movie and we haven't seen her for a while, so we made an appointment to meet up today."
Chu Zhiruo's face was very ugly, "No, let's go home."
"Aunt, we have an appointment." Chu Mengyao panicked.
Chu Zhiruo's face turned ugly, "Let's go home.
"Aunt, I really have an appointment."
Didn't Haoran tell you to stop playing with third-rate celebrities? "Many of them are outer circle women, so their reputations are too poor."
"Ai Ting is not that person!" Chu Mengyao blurted out without thinking.
"I've seen many people like her. In order to climb up, she can do anything." Chu Zhiruo said sincerely, "Those who walk out of the orphanage no longer have a poor background, they want to live a good life with their lives on the line. For people like her, as long as they can live a good life, they can do anything. "
The three words "orphanage" stung Chu Mengyao deeply. Her voice was low, but her words were spoken slowly but firmly, "I don't know much about others, but Ai Ting isn't like how you described him."
Hearing Chu Mengyao's words, Chu Zhiruo's heart skipped a beat, she had said the wrong thing. Her voice immediately became gentle, and there was a hint of discussion in her tone, "I don't understand Ai Ting, I really shouldn't judge her like that. If you want to get in touch with her, that's fine too. But it was getting late, and the meeting would continue in the morning. Why don't you tell her and make an appointment next time? "
Hearing this, Chu Mengyao secretly complained in her heart, she had already told Fu Yi that she would go over later, "It's not appropriate if I don't go now, I will be back soon."
Chu Zhiruo was a little unhappy, "Mengyao, you don't listen to your aunt at all? Do you have to make an appointment so late at night? "
After saying that, Chu Mengyao could not hold on any longer, and sat in the car that Uncle Huang was driving. Just as she got on the car, Chu Mengyao quickly sent a message to Fu Yi, "I can't leave now, aunty is worried that it's too late. Now, take me with you to your home! "
Fu Yi was originally in a good mood, but the moment he saw this message, her mood immediately turned bad. He felt like a grieving wife waiting for her husband at home. No matter how much he looked forward to meeting her, he could not find her.
It was very quiet in the car, and the short message notification sound could be heard easily. Chu Zhiruo did not look at Chu Mengyao, and casually asked, "Who sent you the message?"
"Ai Ting, I told her not to go over tonight." Chu Mengyao replied with feigned calmness.
Chu Zhiruo did not speak anymore.
After a long while, Chu Zhiruo finally said casually, "Mengyao, how did you know the one in charge of the Hundred Great Guilds, Boss Xiao, it seems you guys are quite familiar with each other."
"Not very familiar, I just met him a few times." Chu Mengyao replied honestly.
This made Chu Zhiruo even more curious. Today, Director Zhang's words revealed a certain attitude that Chu Mengyao had to have, which gave her a wild guess, could it be that Xiaoyiran was not interested in the Chu's itself, but Chu Mengyao?
Seeing Chu Zhiruo's face filled with doubt, Chu Mengyao explained, "Xiao is always Ai Ting's introduction."
"Are they familiar with each other?" Chu Zhiruo was shocked.
"I'm not sure. I don't think I'm familiar with him. He should be a friend that we introduced to him." What is it, Aunt? "
"I was just casually asking."
Soon, they arrived at the Chu Family residence. Just as Chu Mengyao was about to go upstairs, Chu Zhiruo called out to her, "Maybe I was too arbitrary and was biased against the occupation of actors, so my impression of Ai Ting is not too good. The words I said just now, Mengyao, don't take them to heart. "If you wish to make an appointment with Ai Ting, you can ask her to come visit your house."
Aunt's change in attitude surprised Chu Mengyao, but the thing that happened between Ai Ting and herself was only a pretense, Ai Ting was still in a foreign land!
Chu Mengyao casually replied her aunt before returning to her own bedroom.
After entering, she immediately dialed Fu Yi's number.
At this time, Fu Yi was in the middle of a discussion on preparation for the competition with the African project team. They were discussing about a thorny problem during the video conference, when their phones started to vibrate.
Fu Yi looked at the name on the phone, and then smiled, "Have you already reached home?"
"Yeah, I just got home." Chu Mengyao laid on the bed without a care, "Are you asleep yet?"
"Not yet. They're having a video conference!" Fu Yi looked at the computer screen.
"There's still a meeting after ten?" Chu Mengyao asked in confusion.
"I'm in a meeting with a colleague from Africa. It's daytime over there." Fu Yi's voice was filled with magnetism. Even though it was a very normal topic, it still caused her heart to beat faster.
"Fortunately, I didn't go look for you. Otherwise, wouldn't I be watching your meeting?" Chu Mengyao teased him with a light tone.
"I am someone who has been set up by pigeons," Fu Yi complained. "This kind of love that cannot be exposed to the light is really difficult!" His aunt would not allow her to go out later, and it was very annoying not to see his girlfriend.
"How about tomorrow …" Chu Mengyao wanted to say something, but opened the door and entered the room. She quickly said, "If there's anything, I'll call you later." Then she hung up.
