I was scolded by Xu Manjia until I felt completely overwhelmed. In the end, I swore that I really got drunk yesterday; if I hadn't been drunk, I would never have said those things to Xu Qian. Xu Manjia didn't believe me and said I must have done it on purpose. I had no way to defend myself. After hanging up the phone, I continued working.
...
After a busy day, just before getting off work, Xu Qian called: "I have to go on a business trip tonight, so I can't have dinner with you." I raised an eyebrow slightly: "Did something happen at Hot Spring Inn?" Xu Qian's voice came through: "No, don't think too much."
"..."
I felt inexplicably a bit disappointed. Xu Qian's voice sounded again: "I'll be back the day after tomorrow; I'll contact you then."
"..."
I wasn't in the mood: "Okay." After hanging up the phone, I continued working.
...
The project for Holographic Hotel wasn't progressing very smoothly. I had invested too much into this hotel, so I was quite anxious. Fortunately, the research institute finally arranged a time to discuss the quotation with us. Early the next morning, I went to the research institute. The person who received us was very polite; we exchanged a few pleasantries before starting to discuss business. I didn't expect to run into Li Rong. He walked in expressionlessly behind an Old Expert.
Upon seeing me, he paused for a moment, then lowered his eyelids and stopped looking at me.
I furrowed my brows slightly, feeling a bit surprised.
I certainly knew that Li Rong was studying architectural design, but I didn't expect to encounter him at work.
And in this manner.
Li Rong sat across from me, his eyes still cast down, not saying a word.
I couldn't help but glance at him a couple more times.
He looked thinner and darker, as if he had endured hardships.
The Old Expert noticed me looking at Li Rong and introduced him: "This is our newly arrived designer, Li Rong."
I nodded slightly and said, "Hello."
Li Rong continued to keep his eyes down and remained silent.
The Old Expert chuckled: "The young man is a bit shy; don't mind him, Miss Qin."
I smiled back: "Not at all."
...
The negotiation went smoothly, and both parties confirmed the quotation and signed the letter of intent for cooperation.
The Old Expert took us on a tour of their research institute.
Li Rong followed closely behind the Old Expert, never speaking to me the entire time.
It wasn't until the Old Expert stepped away to take a phone call that it was just the two of us left.
I looked at him: "You..."
"I didn't tell her I was coming," Li Rong suddenly spoke up, "She arranged it herself."
"..."
I was taken aback for a moment before realizing he was explaining himself to me.
I looked at him: "Why are you working at the institute?"
Li Rong's expression was indifferent: "I want to challenge myself."
"......"
I stared at him. "Don't you want to make a lot of money?"
Li Rong's voice was cold. "I don't want to anymore."
"......"
I looked into his eyes. "Then what do you want to do now?"
Li Rong was silent for a moment before speaking. "I want to be a good person."
"......"
I looked at him, momentarily at a loss for words.
At that moment, Old Expert returned.
Li Rong resumed his indifferent demeanor.
Old Expert took us on a tour and then escorted us out.
Before getting into the car, I glanced at Li Rong, and he looked back at me.
Our eyes met, and my heart skipped a beat.
I averted my gaze and got into the car.
