Chapter 395
Her face flushed red, and she gave him an annoyed, coy glance, gently pushing him away and taking the phone from him.
"Sister Nianzhi Lu, did something happen?"
Generally if nothing was going on, Lu Nianzhi wouldn't call her at this time.
"There's no particularly important matter, I've already gotten the company affairs in order and sent the documents to your work email."
"I'm going abroad on a trip tomorrow. Too much has happened in Shenjing since I returned."
"You're right, I do need some quiet time to think things over between me and Xu Chuan. This tangled mess has had too big an impact on me."
Lu Nianzhi sighed as she explained. She was also very frustrated with her current contradictory state.
The tone in her voice no longer held that brisk and straightforward air of a strong career woman that Rong Dai was used to hearing when she first met her.
Now there was only a heavy sense of weariness and bewilderment.
Having worked together with Lu Nianzhi for such a long time, Rong Dai wasn't an unfeeling machine. She felt somewhat distressed over her situation.
If it wasn't for twists of fate, Lu Nianzhi and Xu Chuan's lives wouldn't be like this now.
"No problem, go relax and travel at ease. I'll handle things on this end." Rong Dai replied softly. The two talked a bit more about work matters before hanging up.
Opportunities slipped by in an instant.
She couldn't always rely on Huo Shao Ting's help to resolve every issue for her. She needed to grow.
Seeing her like this, Huo Shao Ting let out a soft helpless sigh and stroked her cheek. "Do you need me to send someone else to your side?"
He never wished for her to overexert herself or constantly worry about so many things.
But he understood her radiance couldn't be obscured.
He would step back and stand behind her, becoming her staunch backbone.
If she ever grew tired or upset, she just had to turn around and she would still have him there.
Rong Dai shook her head. "Having Sister Nianzhi is enough, I want to discover and nurture the rest of the people myself."
"Otherwise, who does this company belong to? You or me?" She humphed, but warmth still filled her heart.
She knew he meant well, but she couldn't live under his wings forever.
Otherwise, those women always eyeing Shao Ting would absolutely seize any chance without mercy the moment it appeared.
She had to guard her own prosperity, so she needed to strengthen herself.
