Chapter 942: The Wen Family Gathering (2)
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Wen Cheng was happy to discuss antique-related things with Jian Yiling and Wen Nuan.
When he talked about these things, he felt incredibly relaxed. It helped him forget about the series of unpleasant things that had happened recently.
At this time, Wen Ruo who was seated beside Grandma Wen stared at them blankly.
Her fist was clenched.
Today, her mother did not come.
Her family was broken and incomplete.
For the past few months, she had suffered so much pain and so much aggravation.
And yet, her father was smiling and laughing with Jian Yiling and the others. It was as though he did not feel any pain or sadness.
It was as though she and her mother were not important to him.
And her grandma said to her that she was also loved! Is this the way her father loved her?
He did not love her! He absolutely did not!
At this moment, Chen Lu came over. She introduced herself as Grandma Wen’s friend’s student.
When Chen Lu saw Jian Yiling, the smile on her face became extra bright.
“This must be Miss Jian Yiling. She’s prettier than the photos. It’s as though she just walked out of a fairy tale. What a lovely girl.”
Chen Lu looked at Jian Yiling as though she was a wolf who had been hungry for a week. It appeared as though she was looking at a big chunk of fresh and juicy meat.
Upon hearing this, Jian Yiling instinctively ducked.
Her shy and fragile appearance was not in line with her amazing strength and talent.
When Chen Lu saw this, she thought to herself that if she had such a daughter, she would definitely keep her hidden. She did not want some cheeky youngster to steal her darling girl away.
Grandma Wen introduced Chen Lu: “Yiling, this is Vice President Chen Lu. She’s also the Chief Designer of Sofia. Her teacher is an old friend of mine.”
Jian Yiling nodded her head. Her response was rather cold. It appeared as though she had no intentions of continuing the conversation with Chen Lu.
It was not that she hated Chen Lu. Rather, she just wasn’t used to chatting with people she wasn’t familiar with.
However, it was obvious that Chen Lu wanted to have further conversations with Jian Yiling.
“Miss Jian Yiling, have you been doing pharmaceutical research recently?” Chen Lu asked cautiously.
“Nope,” Jian Yiling responded. This was the truth. As of now, she was focused on Qin Hongzhi and Zhai Yunsheng. They were two incredibly important patients. As a result, she did not have much time to do other research.
Jian Yiling’s response was very short.
However, Chen Lu was not put off by Jian Yiling’s answer. She still had a smile on her face and she remained polite and friendly.
“Miss Jian Yiling, what leisure activities do you enjoy?” Chen Lu asked. She decided to start with some casual topics.
“Reading.”
“Miss Jian Yiling, do you have any favorite celebrities or celebrity groups?”
“Jupiter.”
“Miss Jian Yiling, do you have any plans of switching jobs?”
“Nope.”
“Actually… Sofia plans to set up a pharmaceutical medical cosmetics department. We need a talented individual to lead our research and development team. Our executive team unanimously believes that Miss Jian Yiling is the talent that we’re looking for.”
Chen Lu’s words were incredibly sincere and earnest.
As Wen Cheng, Jian Shuxing, and Wen Nuan were unaware of the situation, they all froze.
They never imagined this.
“I’m not going,” Jian Yiling refused quite bluntly.
Chen Lu: “If Miss Jian Yiling is willing to become part of our company, then eighty percent of the net proceeds from the medical cosmetics team will be given to you. In addition, there will be an annual salary of twenty million dollars.”
When the others heard this, they were all shocked.
Grandma Wen knew that Chen Lu wanted to invite Jian Yiling to join Sofia.
However, even she did not expect such generous conditions.
