Following his father's counsel, Lu Xing intensified his efforts to gain favor. However, winning over individuals who have dedicated many years to the company and remain steadfastly loyal to Lu Qing was not a swift endeavor.
Witnessing the lack of advancement, Lu Xing's anxiety mounted, mirroring the absence of any hopeful signs. His initial belief was that securing the patriarch's approval would simplify subsequent tasks.
"Father, this is the situation. I will proceed as you advised. However, I cannot guarantee success on his part. Furthermore, these long-standing employees were loyal to you first, and now to him. Attempting to gain an advantage among them is exceedingly difficult. You must personally persuade the old man."
Lu Xing explored numerous strategies, concluding that his father's direct intervention was the most viable course of action. The more he contemplated, the more he recognized the critical importance of fostering a strong relationship with the patriarch. Moreover, Lu Qing's stringent control over various aspects made dealing with certain obstinate individuals a formidable challenge. Thus, he solidified his resolve.
Qin Miaomiao had agreed to join Lu Qing for dinner this evening.
With no other pressing engagements, she concluded her workday punctually, adopting a disciplined, almost military-like demeanor. Her recent schedule had been exceptionally demanding, and with this rare opportunity to dine together finally arriving, Lu Qing was once again occupied. Consequently, she had no alternative but to await him downstairs at the office, as previously arranged.
"Mrs. Lu, would you care to ascend and await the president?"
"No, thank you. Could you please bring me a cup of coffee?"
"Certainly. Please bear with me for a moment."
Qin Miaomiao preferred not to disrupt Lu Qing's work. She was aware that since Lu Xing's integration into the company, Lu Qing's overall morale had notably improved. Facing the diverse opinions presented by Lu Xing, he needed to maintain considerable mental fortitude; otherwise, the pressure could become overwhelming.
Lu Xing contacted the reception desk. Upon hearing the reference to 'Mrs. Lu,' he inquired with a measure of bewilderment, "Is Mrs. Lu here?"
"Yes, Mrs. Lu just arrived."
The designation 'Mrs. Lu' struck him as somewhat jarring, yet it sparked a different train of thought. He fixed his gaze intently on the individual before him, lost in contemplation of various matters, before concluding the call.
"Miss Qin."
Lu Xing approached Qin Miaomiao, adopting an air of feigned surprise. Her deliberate act of sipping coffee abruptly faltered. She raised her eyelids to meet Lu Xing's gaze, her expression gradually shifting to one of bewilderment as she slowly rose and offered a slight nod, "Mr. Lu."
"Here to see Lu Qing?"
"Yes, he is currently occupied, so I am waiting for him."
Lu Xing harbored a multifaceted jealousy towards Lu Qing, particularly fueled by the belief that Qin Miaomiao's presence substantiated his suspicions. He engaged in profound contemplation, considering numerous angles, and stated with earnest sincerity, "You are truly considerate of Lu Qing."
"He is my husband; naturally, his affairs are my primary concern."
Qin Miaomiao wished to avoid extensive involvement with Lu Xing on unrelated matters, thus she did not focus excessively on various details. Engaging in deep reflection on numerous issues, she eventually observed Lu Xing heading towards the reception area.
"A cup of coffee, sent over there."
Noticing the direction Lu Xing indicated was toward her own location, Qin Miaomiao began to grasp his intentions. She regarded him, a sense of surprise at his seemingly circuitous actions stirring within her, tinged with other burgeoning thoughts.
"You seem to have adapted quite well to the company, integrating smoothly with everyone in such a brief period."
Lu Xing scrutinized Qin Miaomiao, sensing an underlying complexity to her words, yet his own heart remained remarkably composed. He considered her visit to Lu Qing today, questioning whether it was an open display of affection or their customary mode of interaction.
