Chapter 1141: Long Time No See (3)
Lina!
When Cheng Chen heard the name Lina, his entire body suddenly stiffened, as if he was reminded of someone.
At this moment, Lina had already reached out her hand towards Ling Tianya. “So you’re Mrs. Ruan. You are truly just as beautiful as the rumors say.” Lina took the initiative to reach out her hand towards Ling Tianya. “h.e.l.lo, I’m Lina.”
At this time, Ling Tianya did not express any fear, and she calmly reached out her hand. “h.e.l.lo, I’m Ling Tianya.”
“Who is this?” Lina’s eyes landed on Cheng Chen, who was sitting across from Ling Tianya.
At this moment, Cheng Chen also stood up and turned around to look at Lina.
Both of them were startled when they met each other’s gazes.
Immediately, a smile appeared on Lina’s face, and she said, “Long time no see.”
After his momentary shock, Cheng Chen also recovered his usual calmness. “Long time no see.”
“Do you guys know each other?” Ling Tianya curiously asked.
Lina nodded and casually said, “In a way.”
Cheng Chen did not say anything. He simply gave a slight nod, agreeing with Lina’s words.
“Since we have coincidentally b.u.mped into each other, why don’t we have a meal together? What do you say, President Ruan?” Lina brought up the request of sharing a meal with Ling Tianya and Cheng Chen.
Of course, Ruan Zeyan did not mind. “That’s fine.”
“I still have matters to take care of at the company, so I won’t be dining with you guys,” Cheng Chen said and then he looked at Ling Tianya. “Give me a call if you need anything.”
“Okay.” Ling Tianya nodded.
Afterwards, Cheng Chen left the restaurant under Ruan Zeyan’s death glare.
“It seems that Mrs. Ruan has a deep relations.h.i.+p with Mr. Chen.” Lina’s words carried unknown implications.
Ling Tianya smiled and looked Lina in the eyes. “We are friends. He is my business partner. That is all.”
After she finished speaking, she gave Lina an imposing, yet respectful smile.
Lina sized up Ling Tianya for a bit. Then, she laughed. “President Ruan, your wife sure isn’t a simple woman.”
Ruan Zeyan walked next to Ling Tianya, and he reached out one hand to hold her hand and wrapped his other hand around her waist, as if he was expressing his owners.h.i.+p over her. “Of course.”
The atmosphere in the private room was quite harmonious. In the enormous private room, sat the four people: Ruan Zeyan, Ling Tianya, Lina, as well as another man.
Ling Tianya had previously seen the other man. He was the one who had attentively propped up an umbrella for Lina when she stepped out of the car.
Ling Tianya guessed that this man was probably Lina’s a.s.sistant.
However, from his tone when he spoke to Lina, he didn’t seem like a normal a.s.sistant.
Lina looked at Ling Tianya. “It seems that Mrs. Ruan is very competent. At such a young age, you already own your own company. Not only that, it is such a large scale entertainment company. It’s just as they say, the younger generations deserve to be regarded with awe.”
Upon hearing Lina politely exchanging pleasantries with her, Ling Tianya could only respond to her with more pleasantries. “Not at all. You are the one that is awesome. You are currently the Chairwoman of such a large scale corporation.”
Lina smiled. “However, I am no longer young. I am almost forty-six years old.”
“Really? I couldn’t tell at all,” Ling Tianya said nonchalantly.
It was just as she expected. Miss Lina was not young. Despite the fact that she took great care of her health and both her figure and appearance were similar to that of a young woman’s, her calm and steady disposition could only be shaped by time. Even Ling Tianya’s current aura was far inferior when compared to hers.
