Chapter 186: I Already Know

~4 min read 649 words

Lu Xiwán nodded again.

"Is that all?"

Before Yun Ruojin changed her expression, Lu Xiwán said thoughtfully, "Are you saying that Yan Han colluded with you to frame me, or that you were stirring up trouble online and leading the crowd to berate me?"

Every one of these cases, when tallied, bears Yun Ruojin's handiwork.

"If that's what you're talking about, then I still need to bring a few reporters over in advance to witness it, so your performance doesn't go to waste."

Lu Xiwán said that and walked around Yun Ruojin, pushing the door straight into the office.

She locked eyes with Fu Sijue, and Lu Xiwán stepped forward again.

"Our engineer just presented the basic details of this project; any questions you have from now on can be asked directly to me,"

Lu Xiwán said that, but no one spoke.

Fu Sijue was clearly determined to invest in this project; what good would their opposition do?

Tang Yi patted his racing heart and silently breathed a sigh of relief.

If Lu Xiwán hadn't cleared the situation today, she would have gotten into a huge mess.

The whole company had been working on this project for so long; any mishap was unacceptable.

Tang Yi suddenly felt very fortunate that Sang Hongfang had handed the project over to Lu Xiwán.

The shareholders who were just picking faults fell silent; the room was dead quiet.

Lu Xiwán gave a slight nod toward Sang Hongfang.

That would mean this matter is settled.

"If President Fu thinks it's fine, we can sign the contract right now,"

Lu Xiwán took the contract Tang Yi handed over, spread it out in front of Fu Sijue.

Fu Sijue glanced over it hastily a couple of times and signed without hesitation.

His straightforward, decisive manner surprised the senior executives.

"Happy cooperation." Sang Hongfang beamed, stood up and shook hands with Fu Sijue.

Fu Sijue's face remained expressionless, only giving a faint nod; when his gaze swept over Lu Xiwán, a ripple of emotion flickered.

"President Fu is a straightforward person," Sang Hongfang said.

When the two big bosses spoke, the others naturally echoed, but Fu Sijue's eyes stayed fixed on Lu Xiwán.

After a moment, he cleared his throat lightly.

"Let's add another 40 million investment to this project,"

He said it as casually as if he were discussing what to eat tonight.

Lu Xiwán, miraculously, wasn't startled.

Having spent so much time beside Fu Sijue, her sensitivity to money had diminished considerably.

The others weren't as lucky as Lu Xiwán; Fu Sijue's words shocked them into silence.

Sang Hongfang was stunned for a split second, then became ecstatic.

Originally, they were already struggling with cash flow for this project, willing to split every cent in half to spend.

Now, with Fu Sijue's investment, they no longer had to worry about lacking funds.

The conference room erupted; some were jubilant, some worried, but because Fu Sijue was still present, no one dared to show it openly.

The dissenters probably all thought the same.

They believed Fu Sijue's action was a clear case of lust clouding judgment, that he chose to invest in Haicheng Technology because he had taken a liking to Lu Xiwán.

Those people hadn't even left, yet the news already flew out.

Lu Xiwán's phone kept ringing; she only then realized she hadn't left the Fu Clan's WeChat group.

She could be the first to get the juicy gossip with herself as the protagonist.

The young girls of the Fu Clan went crazy, and their nickname for Lu Xiwán had turned into "CEO's Wife."

The situation surged wildly in the opposite direction of what the executives had hoped, reaching an irretrievable point.

Lu Xiwán unexpectedly didn't feel bored; she even watched with keen interest.

So much so that everyone in the office left without noticing.

Only Fu Sijue remained.

"What are you looking at?"
