Chapter 591: Intentionally making things difficult

She naturally knew that Secretary Qian saying Rong Ci was not there was just an excuse, and Rong Ci was likely intentionally leaving her hanging because she held a grudge against her for previous matters.

But now that their company's project had run into problems, Chang Mo was their best choice. Even knowing Rong Ci was intentionally making things difficult, Lian Ningqi still suppressed her temper and communicated with Secretary Qian: "Then may I ask when your President Rong will be back?"

Secretary Qian said: "Sorry, President Rong didn't say, and I'm not very clear either."

Lian Ningqi knew that saying more would be useless.

She didn't say anything more, just left a faint "Then I'll come again next time" before hanging up the phone.

Then, she called Lin Wu and asked if she had Rong Ci's number.

Lin Wu: "No."

Lian Ningqi: "Is it convenient to help me ask Tingshen for it?"

Lin Wu knew what she was looking for Rong Ci for and said: "Of course it's convenient."

Lian Ningqi sat in the car and waited. Only a few minutes later, Lin Wu sent Rong Ci's number over.

After thanking Lin Wu, Lian Ningqi called Rong Ci, using her assistant's number to call her.

Rong Ci had already guessed she would change numbers to call her. Seeing the unfamiliar number, she didn't answer.

Lian Ningqi hadn't expected Rong Ci to be so defensive. She edited a message and sent it to Rong Ci: 【President Rong, I am Lian Ningqi, Director of the Lian Group. I have a cooperation I want to discuss with you, and you can set the terms. I wonder when President Rong is free?】

Rong Ci saw Lian Ningqi's message but turned a blind eye to it, put her phone aside, and continued to busy herself with her own work.

Seeing she didn't reply, Lian Ningqi called Rong Ci again, and Rong Ci directly blacklisted her number.

Lian Ningqi thought she had already lowered her status, and Rong Ci's reaction was within her expectations. Even so, her expression was still a bit ugly.

Rong Ci didn't care about how she was doing. After blacklisting Lian Ningqi, she continued to focus on her own work.

However, she had to go to the Feng family in the afternoon.

When she and several engineers from the company arrived downstairs, Lian Ningqi and her secretary appeared and blocked her path: "President Rong, shall we talk?"

Lian Ningqi hadn't left, and Rong Ci wasn't surprised, because after Lian Ningqi's call this morning, Yu Moxun specifically asked around and knew that their project was currently very urgent. In order to handle company matters, Lian Ningqi naturally had to pay with a bit of patience.

Rong Ci's expression was faint: "Sorry, Director Lian, I and my company's engineers have important matters to handle."

Rong Ci being busy might be true, but—

Lian Ningqi didn't move aside but looked at Rong Ci and said: "Since President Rong is busy, I won't disturb you too much. However, can President Rong give me a time?"

Upon hearing this, Rong Ci said: "Regarding this, Director Lian can contact my secretary directly; she will arrange it according to my schedule."

After saying this, she bypassed Lian Ningqi and was about to leave.

Hearing Rong Ci say this, Lian Ningqi knew she was just stalling. She blocked Rong Ci's path again, her tone cold: "President Rong, are you really busy, or... are you intentionally making things difficult for me because you hold a grudge against me for what happened last time?"

Upon hearing this, Rong Ci didn't get angry but laughed: "I am holding a grudge against you for what happened last time, and I am intentionally making things difficult for you now. So, is that not allowed?"

Lian Ningqi hadn't expected Rong Ci to be so straightforward.

Rong Ci bypassed her and turned to leave directly. ===== CHAPTER 592 =====
