Chapter 372: Annual Meeting

passed away peacefully in the end. All the machines were removed from his body, and he lay there quietly, as if asleep. He bowed deeply to the old man, without a word, not shedding a single tear. The...Lu Kuo was already lounging there, looking nonchalant. When a graceful and elegant woman approached him and offered him a toast, he smiled and raised his cup to drink with her. His peach blossom eyes took in Li Anna from head to toe, making a quick assessment: she wasn't naturally beautiful; she relied entirely on makeup to support her appearance, barely reaching a 6 out of 10. 。But he was the best actor, still wearing an expression of admiration on his face as he looked at her. 。Li Anna didn't expect the young master of Whale Finance to be so easygoing. Even looking at her, his eyes held admiration and appraisal – a look a man gives a woman, and her heart skipped a beat. 。She introduced herself: "Hello, Mr. Lu, I am Lawyer Li Anna from the Business Department of Lanshan Law Firm. Nice to meet you." 。She passed him a business card. Lu Kuo took a look, oh, she was a colleague of Shu Tinglan from the same department, and immediately smiled: “Even lawyers should keep up with the times, what era is this still using business cards, come, add me on WeChat.” 。His peach blossom eyes were alluring, and he took the initiative to show his QR code to Li Anna. Li Anna was flattered and blushed. She quickly scanned it with her phone. 。

Today was incredibly lucky. Although I'm sad to have missed meeting Zhuo Yunan in person, I was fortunate enough to attend Zhuoyuan Technology's annual meeting. Not only did I meet Lawyer Zhang, but I also met Lu Kuò, the "prince" of Tingjing Finance, and even added him on WeChat. It's like a dream! 。Knowing them, how far is she from becoming a partner She seemed to see Lady Luck beckoning her. 。"Mr. Li, please keep in touch." 。Lu Kuo raised his cup with her again and drank it all in one go, very politely. 。As he was a colleague of Shu Tinglan's, he was indeed more polite to her than to others. 。The same person joked, "Young Master Lu treats beauties so differently." 。You've had so many people come over to toast you, but I haven't seen you take a single sip. 。"That's not the same at all. I'll have plenty of opportunities to see Ms. Li in the future." 。His words left room for misinterpretation, and the people at his table chuckled ambiguously. 。Li Anna's heart was pounding like crazy. The other party was the son of the Listen Whale Finance tycoon, a figure she could only look up to but never hope to reach. 。She seemed to see a beautiful future beckoning her, and hurriedly said: “Welcome Mr. Lu anytime.” 。Her use of the word “come” was also ambiguous. Come when Where would she come It could be her place or the law firm. 。When she returned to the lawyer's table, everyone noticed that her face was flushed and her eyes sparkled with a newfound charm. She kept glancing at Lu Kuo's table absentmindedly. 。

The annual meeting officially began, the stage was filled with singing and dancing, gradually becoming lively. The performance generally lasts for about an hour before ending, and then finally, the person in charge of Zhuo Yuan Technology takes the stage to give a speech, thanking all the cooperating parties. 。The performance had just begun when Fu Shenyi's assistant hurriedly found Cui Jie and whispered a few words in her ear. Cui Jie's face changed

“How could it be food poisoning Is it serious Can he hold on”

“Mr. Fu wants to persevere until the speech is over, but Mrs. Fu didn't allow it. She has been vomiting and dehydrated, so she called an ambulance to send her to the hospital.” 。"Okay, I understand. Please send me Mr. Fu's speech." 。" Cui Jie was still relatively calm. There was an hour left before the final CEO speech, so she immediately contacted Zhuo Yu'an." 。Zuo Yu'an and his family of four were at the fencing hall. He and Shu Xiaonian were practicing with their respective coaches, while Ting Lan was accompanying Shu Xiaohe nearby. 。Shu Xiaohua saw that her father and brother were wearing fencing uniforms, which looked so cool. She jumped over excitedly wanting to participate too. The coach had no choice but to let her train with her brother. 。。After practicing for less than two minutes, he crawled out of the training ground and asked his mother for a hug, acting coquettishly and saying his legs hurt so much that he couldn't practice anymore. 。Shu Tinglan smiled, wondering whose personality Shuxiaohe resembled. Both she, Shu Xiaoneng, and Zhuo Y uan belonged to the type who set high standards for themselves and were absolutely devoted and serious in their work. Unlike Shuxiaohe, who was more carefree and willful. 。Zuo Yu'an just likes Shu Xiaohua like this. His daughter should be free to live and enjoy all the good things in the world from the moment she is born, without being forced to do anything. 。Shutinglan said to him: "Your kind of thinking is essentially patriarchal. If you require Shuxiao Nian to be independent and responsible, then you should equally require Shuxiao He to be independent and responsible, instead of letting her loose and indulging her. " 。It is inevitable that the two will also have disagreements because of differences in parenting philosophies. 。"This is not gender discrimination, but rather teaching according to individual aptitudes." 。

Xiao Nian is inherently a child who sets high standards for himself. What we need to do is fully support him and give him enough energy to meet his inner needs; while Xiao He is completely the opposite, she has a go-with-the-flow personality. If you demand too much from her or train her rigorously, it wouldn't be education, but rather pressure exerted by your parental authority. This will not bring her happiness.

"When it comes to parenting, Zhuo Yu'an is quite the expert. Shu Tinglan humbly admits defeat, conceding that there’s wisdom in his words." 。As she was thinking about their previous discussion, Zhuo Yuyan's phone on her side rang. It was Cui Jie calling, so she picked up. 。Ms. Shu Is Mr. Zhu there

"He is, just a moment, I'll have him answer." 。She waved her phone at Zhuo YUAN, and Zhuo YUAN immediately walked over to take it. 。Sister Cui: "Mr. Fu has acute gastroenteritis and is at the hospital now. I'm afraid you'll have to give the final speech at the annual dinner." 。Unless circumstances were special, Cui Jie wouldn't have come to him. After all, the final speech at the annual meeting was unsuitable for anyone else. 。"I understand, in half an hour."

Zhu Yuyan didn't shirk. 。He went to the locker room to shower and change, while Shu Tinglan helped him outside by looking over the speech draft sent by Sister Cui. Out of professional habit, she carefully reviewed and modified it word by word. 。 Tinglan, come here. 。"Zuo Yu'an called her in the locker room." 。She walked over and saw that Zhu YUAN had already dressed up. He wore a straight-fitting suit with trousers, a light gray shirt underneath. He possessed an innate air of elite and nobility. Every time Shu Tinglan saw him, her heart would still beat faster. 。"Help me tie my tie"

He handed her a tie, taking a step closer and closing the distance between them. 。Shu Tinglan took the tie, slightly raising her toes to help him put it on. As a result, she wasn't very good at it. She had seen others do it easily before, but when she tried to tie it for him herself, her hands wouldn't listen to her brain. Holding the tie, she thought carefully for a while >>> 。Zhuo Yu'an had been patiently waiting for her with his head bowed. Seeing her serious expression and fluttering eyelashes, he couldn't help but speak:

"Not going to"

Shu Tinglan saw his Adam's apple bob up and down as he spoke. 。
