Chapter 60: Wen Jian

rted scratching her again, and she laughed until she was in a ball. 。He sealed her lips with his, holding them captive for what felt like an eternity before finally releasing them. "Shh," he whispered..."What candidate"

"The professional manager Fu Shenyi currently manages a listed company at Hua'an, which is considered a competitor of Zhuo Yuan Technology. Zhuo Yuan Technology wants to poach him to manage the market operations. Let me tell you, this is entirely Yu An Zhuo’s conspiracy and trickery. He himself does very well in both research and development and marketing, so why would he need to hire a professional manager This is a smokescreen to stir up trust crises within the competitors. As soon as our headhunter contacts Fu Shenyi, Fu Shenyi will inevitably be suspected of loyalty and questioned about whether he wants to jump ship to Zhuo Yuan Technology."

"Fu Shenyi isn't stupid, he wouldn't possibly see you."

"Yeah, so I guess the only option is to go down to their company and try to find someone. At least I need to meet them in person before I can report back to Zhuo Y uan."

After Lin Zhiyu finished speaking, he hurriedly hung up the phone. For a moment, he even forgot the true purpose of his call—to tell Shu Tinglan about Zhuo Yu'an's family background.

In the evening, Shu Tinglan video called Zhuo Yuan'an. Recalling what Lin Zhihao had said, she casually brought it up during their conversation.

"Are you really just trying to get her to go find Fu Shenyi at Hu'an, or is there something else going on"

Zhuo Yu'an was taken aback, then smiled.

"Do you think I'm so idle Fu Shenyi is a talented person, and of course I hope he can join Zhuoyuan Technology. It's just that this man has a weird temper, most people can't handle him. Let Lin Zhixuan go over and get to know him first."

She probably messed it up for you, she didn't understand it the right way.

"No, I have it under control."

After chatting idly for a few more minutes, just before hanging up, Zhuo Yu'an finally said:

"I will go back the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, then we'll meet at Zhuoyuan Technology the day after tomorrow. Lawyer Zhang asked us to go there for a meeting to report on project progress and make arrangements."

"Good."

Time flew by, and early in the morning, Director Xiao led them to a project meeting at Zhuoyuan Technology. Accompanying them were representatives from accounting and appraisal institutions. The high-level executives of Zhuoyuan Technology also attended this meeting. Because the acquisition of Shengpu Rui Intelligent was Zhuoyuan Technology's biggest deployment this year, and it was about to enter the negotiation stage, all preparatory work had to be completed as soon as possible.

The progress of the law firm's work has always been Shu Tinglan's responsibility in liaising with Zhuo Yuan Technology. Therefore, this time during the work report, Director Xiao arranged for her to be the main presenter.

The accounting firm and appraisal agency had reported beforehand, leaving the law firm to last. Shu Tinglan calmly opened the projector, launching into a methodical report on the current progress for everyone in the meeting room.

Mid-sentence, the door to the conference room swung open. All of Zhuo Yuan's executives turned their heads toward the entrance and then all stood up.

"Mr. Zhu, good morning."

"Mr. Zhu is back"

Shu Tinglan also followed everyone's gaze and, the moment she saw Zhuo Yu'an, the corners of her lips unconsciously rose. Her heart pounded like a drum, popping with countless bubbles. Especially when Zhuo Yu'an's gaze swept over the crowd and landed precisely on her, meeting her eyes, those countless bubbles seemed to turn sweet, even the air felt sweet, all from just a brief second of eye contact.

It had only been seven days, but those seven days were enough for her to honestly face her own heart. She was certain that she had feelings for Zhuo YUAN... The word "feeling" hadn't even appeared in her mind when her thoughts suddenly came to a halt. She saw the girl standing behind Zhuo YUAN, and her brain went blank.

Zhuo Yu'an slightly bowed, letting the girl behind him take a step forward and stand before everyone.

"Hey, welcome back," said Wang Yan, being the first to greet.

Only then did everyone realize that this beautiful and elegant girl was none other than the renowned yet enigmatic product designer, Ane.

Jane nodded slightly, followed by Zhuo Yu'an to the center of the conference table, and said gracefully:

"Hello everyone, I am ane, Wen Jian. I'll go with the flow and follow local customs, so you can call me Wen Jian from now on."

The conference room erupted in thunderous applause to welcome her arrival.

Only Shu Tinglan remained, his mind a blank, face pale and ashen. He slumped back into his seat, a vacant look in his eyes. All he could hear was Director Xiao's reminder: "Tinglan, continue your report."

“Oh, okay, okay,” she replied, but her hands wouldn’t stop shaking. She kept twitching the water glass on the table like a mouse, and it tipped over, spilling water all over the place. It splashed onto Jiajia beside her, who jumped up in surprise and scrambled to turn off the power cord in the chaos. The screen went dark instantly.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, frowning.

"Tinglan, what's wrong" Zhou Ming noticed her abnormality and asked with concern.

"Director Xiao, I don't feel well. Can I take a leave of absence"

"Let's go, let's go." Director Xiao didn't even glance at her, looking down on her for failing at the crucial moment.

Shu Tinglan didn't know how she walked out of that conference room. Her steps were light and unsteady, like walking on cotton. How could she have met Wen Jian How did she appear How many years had it been How many years had it been since she last saw Wen Jian

Employees were whispering to each other in the elevator.

Did you see the girl next to Mr. Zhu just now She's reportedly a low-key and mysterious product designer named Ane.

"My God, I never thought ane would be such a stunning beauty, especially her temperament, both beautiful and cool. Her figure is like a model's."

"I originally thought ane might be a rough guy, or a stiff tech girl, haha."

"Just now in the company gossip group, everyone has already dug up Jane's background. She and Mr. Zhuo were childhood sweethearts and high school classmates. They studied the same major abroad together and started a business with Mr. Zhuo after graduation. Their relationship is even closer than Wang Yan, the Director."

"Lady Zhu is undoubtedly the one."

"No wonder there were no more rumors about Lin Zhiyao, the rumored girlfriend of President Zhuo after the Lunar New Year. It turns out that the official partner has arrived, and she naturally stepped aside."

Shutinglan's phone kept ringing, it was a message from Zhuo Yu'an:

"Are you sick"

"Where are you"

At this moment, her eyes were blurred, unable to make out the words on her phone screen. They kept jumping and eventually transformed into Wen Jian's face.

She simply turned off her phone and dove into the subway station. Because it wasn't rush hour, there were still seats on the train, so she randomly picked one to sit down. The rumbling sound of the subway car passed through tunnel after tunnel, stopping at station after station, but she was oblivious, lost in reminiscing about the past.

The last time I saw Wen Jian was at the gate of Qining High School. Wen Jian said...

"Shu Tinglan, I'm only taking back what belongs to me. It was always mine."

Wen Jian was thinner then than she is now, thin to the point of pitifulness, making you want to protect her instinctively. But that was all an illusion. Only Shu Tinglan knew Wen Jian's strength was enormous, much greater than hers. When they fought, twisting and turning into a tangle, Shu Tinglan had never won. She would only clumsily grab at Wen Jian's face, unable to hit any vital points. While Wen Jian could always easily kick her abdomen, causing intense pain but leaving no trace.

Does anyone remember that Wen Jian appeared in chapter two
