"That"s right. They are such a loving couple, and didn"t that Young Master Wen also post on Weibo saying that Lin Nuan only loves our chairman?"
"To be honest, before seeing our chairman and Lin Nuan holding hands, I felt a little disbelief towards Young Master Wen"s Weibo post. But I believe it now!"
The moment the elevator arrived, Lin Nuan and Fu Huai"an entered while holding hands. It was only after the elevator doors closed that the discussions in the lobby about Lin Nuan and Fu Huai"an became louder.
When a member of the sales department who went out to meet a client came back, he joined in the gossiping after vaguely seeing Lin Nuan and Fu Huai"an entering the elevator.
"That"s our chairman and Lin Nuan, right? Did I see wrongly? They didn"t get a divorce?"
"That"s right! I"m also feeling stumped! This won"t do, this won"t do! I"m going to post in my Weibo social circle! "
"I took the risk of getting fired and secretly took a photo earlier! I"m going to post it in my Weibo social circle as well!"
"Post it, post it! After you post it, I"ll steal your photo for my post!"
The elevator lobby became very lively.
…
Little Lu came back very quickly. He had just stepped into the secretary"s office and had yet to remove his coat when, unexpectedly, he saw Fu Huai"an walk in with Lin Nuan"s hand in his.
In the secretary"s office, the fatty was sharing snacks with everyone. The moment he saw Fu Huai"an and Lin Nuan, he was so scared that he hid his box of snacks on the table behind him. He didn"t put the box up properly and ended up spilling the snacks all over the floor. This attracted Fu Huai"an"s gaze toward the secretary"s office.
The fatty saw the snacks scattered all over the floor. He was about to bend over and pick them up when he saw Fu Huai"an"s gaze looking toward him. The fatty stiffened up and bent over, not knowing if he should pick up the snacks or not. His legs remained bent, and his hands were reaching out as he called out, "Chairman!"
Little Lu paused in his action of undoing the b.u.t.tons to his suit. He turned and saw Lin Nuan and Fu Huai"an, then quickly walked over to the secretary"s office. "Sir, Madam…"
Lin Nuan smiled and nodded toward Little Lu.
"Call President Lu and get him to come up!"
After saying that, Fu Huai"an pushed open the door to his office and let Lin Nuan enter first.
Seeing Lin Nuan, the gossip genes in everyone in Fu Huai"an"s secretary"s office started to writhe…
The moment the door to Fu Huai"an"s office closed, the few of them quickly closed the gla.s.s door to the secretary"s office, pulled Little Lu over, and pressed him down on an office desk, interrogating him.
"What"s going on? Didn"t they say that the chairman and Lin Nuan secretly got divorced? Why did the two of them come in holding hands today?"
"Who said that they got a divorce? Stop fooling around…"
Little Lu pushed away the few people who had pressed him down, picked up the phone on the office desk, and contacted Lu Jinnan"s secretary, informing Lu Jinnan to come up.
After he hung up the call, the few members in the secretary"s office came up to Little Lu. "Then is that adorable child in our chairman"s house his?"
"Your question is rubbis.h.!.+ Miss Su Manman is Sir"s younger sister. If Young Master wasn"t Sir"s child, would Miss Su Manman stand out to protect him?" Little Lu removed his suit and hung it up properly, then changed into another clean suit. "If you have so much energy, you might as well think about how you can do your job well. Will you guys be paid for gossiping about our boss"s marriage? Will you get a promotion for it?"
Very quickly, the news that was first spread out from the Kaide Corporation was that Lin Nuan and Fu Huai"an held hands and went to the Kaide Corporation. They appeared very loving.
The rumors about Lin Nuan and Fu Huai"an started to fall apart.
It was the first time that Lin Nuan had gone to Fu Huai"an"s new office after it was renovated. The renovation style of the office was very dignified.
Lin Nuan saw the ash-gray colored rug on the ground. She took off her jacket, then casually draped it over the leather sofa"s backrest. She asked, "Can I use your computer for a while while you and Lu Jinnan discuss work?"
She had just asked this question when Lu Jinnan pushed open the door and entered, not knocking. He didn"t expect to see Lin Nuan there, but he wasn"t surprised at all. He nodded to Lin Nuan and started the serious discussion with Fu Huai"an, not avoiding her at all.
Lin Nuan sat behind the big desk and switched on Fu Huai"an"s computer. She logged into her own email and opened up the script that Fang Yan had sent her previously to study it.
Fang Yan had given the script to Lin Nuan long ago. It was just that there were too many things on her plate, so Lin Nuan had left it aside and hadn"t looked through it seriously.
Lu Jinnan sat opposite Fu Huai"an, feeling angry, and he almost slammed the doc.u.ments in his hands onto the coffee table.
"Why are you so angry…" Fu Huai"an looked up at Lu Jinnan indifferently and asked.
Lu Jinnan removed his suit and tossed it onto the sofa. He frowned, rolled his sleeves up to his elbows, and tugged at his well-ironed trousers as he sat down on the sofa.
"Lu Qingmei bid for a plot of land in Qujiang"s new district recently. The price is too high. I got people to do a calculation. Even if we use up every single inch of this land to build buildings, not leaving any gaps behind, we"ll only be able to recover the costs if we sell it at 14,000 per square meter! This is excluding the construction costs! The average housing price for Haicheng is 23,000. We won"t be getting anything after all that trouble!"
Lu Jinnan took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, shook one out, and bit down on it. After lighting it up, his hands were trembling from anger. "Has that Fu Qingquan also turned into a fool from his old age? To think that he signed the doc.u.ment! Isn"t this stupid? Back then, he went through all that trouble, wanting to leave the Kaide Corporation to Fu Tianci and his mother. Was his plan to let the mother and son destroy the Kaide Corporation?"
Lu Jinnan"s current mentality toward the management of the Kaide Corporation was different from what it used to be. At the moment, Fu Huai"an was the largest shareholder, so he was very concerned about the company"s management. Therefore, he felt even more furious about these matters.
Fu Huai"an took a brief look at the cost computation and said, "Lu Qingmei fell into someone else"s trap…"
Hearing Fu Huai"an"s unconcerned tone, Lu Jinnan tapped away some cigarette ash and asked, "Were you already expecting this?"
Fu Huai"an didn"t look up but appeared as if he was unconcerned. He laughed softly. "Expecting what?"
Lu Jinnan was speechless.
If he wasn"t expecting it to happen, why did he appear so indifferent?
It was trouble caused by Lu Qingmei and Fu Qingquan, but now, the one suffering the loss was Fu Huai"an.
Little Lu brought in a pot of biluochun tea that Fu Huai"an liked, serving it in a Yixing clay teapot. He didn"t say anything and poured a cup of tea for both Fu Huai"an and Lu Jinnan. He also placed a cup of orange juice next to Lin Nuan. He knew that Lin Nuan liked it.
Lin Nuan was resting her chin on her hand as she stared at the computer screen. Although the discussion between Lu Jinnan and Fu Huai"an about the solution to this problem rang out next to her, she was fully engrossed in the script.
Half an hour later, Fu Huai"an and Lu Jinnan finished their discussion. They told Little Lu to inform all members of management to gather for a meeting ten minutes later.
Fu Huai"an threw a glance in Lin Nuan"s direction…
At that moment, Lin Nuan was engrossed in the script, and her eyes had turned red and were glistening with tears.
"I"ll leave the meeting to you. Xiao Nuan and I will be making a move first!" Fu Huai"an pulled back his glance and said to Lu Jinnan.
