Chapter 166: Appointment with a big shot

~7 min read 1,352 words

On the way to Xundu, Old Madam Feng called Rong Ci.

Rong Ci answered: "Grandma."

"Hey," Old Madam Feng smiled kindly: "I heard from Xin Xin a few days ago that you are very busy with work now, and sometimes you even stay up all night. Someone sent me some tonics these past two days, and Grandma has already had someone send some over to you; remember to have someone simmer them for you to eat."

Rong Ci knew that even if she declined, Old Madam Feng wouldn't listen, so she had to say: "I will, thank you, Grandma."

Old Madam Feng smiled, as if remembering something, and said: "By the way, Grandma talked to Tingshen a while ago, and he promised to get along well with you. After all, no matter what, you are both Xin Xin's parents, and having a relationship that is too strained is not good for Xin Xin's growth and physical and mental health."

So, was this the reason why Feng Tingshen had been uncharacteristically concerned about her on the day of the symposium?

Rong Ci said indifferently: "Alright, I understand."

After Rong Ci chatted with Old Madam Feng for a while longer, she hung up the phone.

Arriving at Xundu, she didn't see Lin Wu.

President Quan saw her and smiled: "It's Valentine's Day today, Ms. Rong, did you receive any flowers?"

Before Rong Ci could speak, a Chang Mo employee who had come to Xundu with Rong Ci smiled and answered: "Yes, such a large bouquet of red roses, it made us so envious."

President Quan smiled, and before he could speak, Sun Liyao, who had appeared from nowhere, answered: "Just flowers? Nothing else?"

The Chang Mo employee was stunned: "This..."

"It seems you really only received flowers?" Sun Liyao sneered: "You guys are really funny, it's just a bunch of roses, what's there to be envious of? My cousin received a pile of them this morning, not to mention that my future brother-in-law even gave my cousin equity in Xundu. Did my cousin say anything?"

President Quan: "..."

This really couldn't be refuted.

But was there a need to compare like this?

Seeing that Rong Ci might not know what had happened, President Quan whispered to her: "I heard that Lin Zongjian is very popular in the circle and is the dream lover of many rich second-generation heirs. Although because she has such a powerful boyfriend as our President Feng, other men don't dare to snatch her openly, but isn't it Valentine's Day today? Some rich second-generation heirs couldn't hold back and anonymously sent Lin Zongjian flowers and gifts one after another; these flowers and gifts almost filled Lin Zongjian's office."

After saying this, without waiting for Rong Ci to speak, he added: "But the reason our President Feng was able to win the beauty's heart is naturally because he has the strength. Look, I heard President Feng directly gave a portion of our company's equity to Lin Zongjian!"

"This is the first time I or anyone else has seen someone pamper their girlfriend to this extent; when we received the news this morning, it made everyone in our company so envious!"

Lin Wu could look at company secrets at will, and Lin Che and Sun Liyao could come to Xundu whenever they wanted and leave whenever they wanted.

At the time, she felt that if Xundu changed its name to Lin one day, she wouldn't find it strange.

Now hearing President Quan say this, Rong Ci wasn't surprised.

It was just that Feng Tingshen specifically transferred equity to Lin Wu on Valentine's Day, which showed that he not only wanted to generously give Lin Wu equity but also wanted to give it with significance and a sense of ritual.

It could be seen that he was indeed thoughtful enough toward Lin Wu.

"What are you chatting about?"

At this moment, Lin Wu's voice cut in.

President Quan hurriedly smiled and said: "Lin Zongjian, is the meeting over?"

Lin Wu: "Yes."

Today, Xundu's senior management held an important meeting.

She now possessed Xundu equity, and just now she wasn't there because she was attending the meeting with Feng Tingshen and the others.

"Cousin." Sun Liyao walked over with a smile, glanced at Rong Ci, and sneered, using a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Someone received flowers and was just feeling proud, but after hearing that many people sent you flowers and that my brother-in-law gave you equity, she couldn't say a word."

Lin Wu listened, glanced indifferently at Rong Ci, and said nothing.

Sun Liyao added: "Cousin, didn't you say before that that man surnamed Yu was very good to her? But today on Valentine's Day, that man surnamed Yu only sent her a bouquet of flowers and nothing else; I think that man surnamed Yu is just so-so toward her."

Lin Wu raised an eyebrow.

Yu Moxun only sent Rong Ci a bouquet of flowers on Valentine's Day?

That was indeed too perfunctory.

Before, she had indeed always felt that Yu Moxun was very good to Rong Ci.

After all, Rong Ci had a great deal of say in Chang Mo.

But now that there was a comparison, she knew that if Yu Moxun were truly thoughtful enough toward Rong Ci, how could he only give her power but not a position, or even equity?

At this moment, President Zhang also walked over, and seeing Lin Wu, he smiled: "Now that you have equity, do you plan to let go and manage Xundu?"

Lin Wu said: "No, let professional people do professional things; I don't like to seize power."

While speaking, she glanced at Rong Ci.

Rong Ci herself had no ability, but in order to show off the say she had in Chang Mo, she had to manage everything in Chang Mo.

But she happened to have neither a position nor equity.

Thinking about it, it was quite ridiculous.

Rong Ci was working seriously and was completely unaffected by what had just happened.

At this moment, her phone rang.

She took a look; it was a message from Nan Zhizhi.

【Come pick me up tomorrow night.】

Last week, Nan Zhizhi said someone wanted to meet her.

Meeting tomorrow, it should be for this matter.

Rong Ci thought, and replied: "Alright, Teacher."

After replying, Rong Ci put away her phone and once again threw herself into work.

The next day, Rong Ci and Yu Moxun picked up Nan Zhizhi to go to the restaurant that had been booked.

Arriving at the destination, just after getting out of the car, Rong Ci saw Ren Yi'an and Ji Huanying.

Nan Zhizhi said someone wanted to meet her, and she had thought that everyone she was meeting today would be strangers she hadn't met before.

She didn't expect Ren Yi'an and Ji Huanying to come as well.

Rong Ci and Yu Moxun greeted: "Uncle Ren, Uncle Ji."

Ren Yi'an and Ji Huanying nodded with a smile.

After exchanging pleasantries, they were just about to go upstairs when someone walked out of a car and smiled: "All leaving? Not waiting for me?"

Rong Ci turned her head, and seeing the person who had come, she was stunned.

He...

Isn't he from the Ministry of National Defense—

Nan Zhizhi remained expressionless and introduced her: "Qi Geng."

Qi Geng restrained some of the intimidating aura he usually faced in interviews, smiled gently, took the initiative to reach out his hand to her, and said: "Little Ci, right? I've long admired your name."

"Yes." Rong Ci: "Hello."

"Everyone is here."

At this moment, someone got out of another car and walked toward them again.

It was another familiar face often seen on the news.

Nan Zhizhi said coldly: "Rong Hong."

Rong Ci shook hands with the person and was just about to speak when another voice came: "Dad?"

Ren Jifeng got out of the car, and seeing so many big shots present besides Ren Yi'an and Ji Huanying, he was a bit surprised.

What surprised him even more was that Rong Ci was actually among them.
