When he thundered at her in such a long voice, her mind whirled. She stood on the sidewalk, on one side of her the flower bed, the other side gra.s.s, exactly where was she supposed to move to?
Now she slowly turned around, trying to come up with the most professional and pleasant smile to the face;-
“Make way! Do you not understand human speech? ” the man growled ill-temperedly,barrelling forward like a steam engine, and when he saw that she continued to be an obstacle, he put out a hand and shoved her aside.
That footpath was quite large, and she stumbled back a few steps, and in the next moment she had sat down on the gra.s.s!
From her bottom came an exquisite pain, and Li Yongxuan frowned hard and glared at the rude devil.
What met her eyes was the view of the back of a strong and healthy guy pa.s.sing through like a hurricane, without any regard for the onlookers. The sunlight glinted off the top of his head, letting his hair sparkle with extraordinary light.
What was he hurrying so much for? Hurrying to be reincarnated? She angrily muttered in her heart.
The she look down and saw, and immediately gasped!
She saw her light grey suit, and where the guy had pushed her lay a hand print of blood!
Entering the Sports Center was like walking into a giant refrigerator. All the devices and equipment were very new, modern, sleek, completely lacking any warmth. Plus the air conditioning was turned up to what was probably the most strongest setting, so that when she took off her coat Li Yongxuan was shaking with cold.
But she couldn’t not take off her coat; the b.l.o.o.d.y hand print was quite a ghastly sight; by contrast, her falling down on the wet gra.s.s skirt and getting a few gra.s.s stains were no big deal.
She forced herself to temporarily forget the chaotic mess of unexpected events and calmly, according to schedule, meet with the Director of the Center, attend the briefing, and then visit the new facilities accompanied by the Manager.
She walked tall, her stilettos creating a confident pace. Training Center full of athletes, the sudden appearance of professional beauty accompanied by the coach naturally made the players raise eyebrows.
Li Yongxuan vaguely felt the atmosphere, and it made her uncomfortable, feeling that everyone would be staring at the gra.s.s stains on her bottom, and wondering why she was so unprofessional? Coming to a meeting, but did not even dress neatly?!
The more embarra.s.sed she got, the more cool she acted so that she wouldn’t be noticed.
When the visit came to an end, they slowed down their pace. The manager, after a moment’s hesitation, politely asked Li Yongxuan if she wanted to have a cup of coffee.
“Mr Huang, next meeting is with the speed skating team, isn’t it? ” Li Yongxuan filled flipped the itinerary in her hands and asked with some asked in confusion.
Her question resulted in the manager suddenly stuttering, “That is … … The skate team’s had a little accident in the morning, you might not be … … Ma’am would it possible … …to come again another day? ”
“Did the whole team get into an accident?” She frowned slightly, recalling the presence of a team practicing earlier.
“Well … … The injured one is Mai Weizhe, the most important player of the team … … So…… “
Mai Weizhe? Ah, she had heard the name.
After all, she must have thorough understanding of the investment goods to accurate forecast profit and a.s.sess risk. This Mai Weizhe, in simple terms, the number of medals he’d won could add up to enough to open a small museum.
As Mai Weizhe lead the skate team, they were the main users of the Sports Centre and highly prominent a group, absolutely indispensable in her a.s.sessment. The executives were also concerned about them. Fulfilling all her curiousity was Li Yongxuan’s nature, and so she couldn’t leave this off lightly, since that was one of today’s main attractions.
“Can I talk to other members? ” She was polite but firm.
“I am quite knowledgeable about the skate team, and if you think you must cover it today, please be my guest, Li Xiaojie, and eat a meal while I brief you-“
1st chapter (2)
Her elegant brow knit further and futher, she did not understand why the Manager was constantly proposing to go eat or drink coffee? She had come for a business visit and was too busy to eat; at most she would have a sandwich with mineral water. And if she really wanted to eat, the Sports Centre had a good canteen.
So she refused. “Thank you, if manager’s hungry, you can go, it is fine with me. Is the skate team now in the training room? I shall go visit on my own, I shan’t bother you to accompany me.”
After saying this she quickly and firmly walked away, not allowing him any more say in the matter.
The manager watched as her slim figure faded away up at the end of the promenade, with a distraught expression: the rumour was true, the Miss was all business entirely, for the good of others will never turn a blind eye, she turns a complete blind eye to any friendly invitations.
It was a real pity that such a beauty was strictly business and completely blind to love.
Meanwhile, the unromantic beauty was all the way at the training room, located in the weight room on the second floor.
The training room was great, covering an area of about hundreds of ping*, and seemingly endless and full of all sorts of new equipment. But few people were using the equipment at the moment. In front of a mirrored wall in the distance, several players could be seen sitting cross-legged, like in an ancient trance, not moving at all.
She closed the door and walked slowly, “Excuse me, does the speed skating team-“
Hearing the noise, any athletes to have moved at the noise resumed their meditation. Only one person on the sidelines, who looked like a coach, responded.
“Miss, do you need anything? ” The Coach’s voice was fairly mild, the tone clearly indicated that she should leave, “If there is no emergency, please do not disturb.”
* ping, unit of area equal to approx. 3.3058 square meters
