Chapter 732 - Her Status Was A Lot Higher Than She Originally Imagined
Xia Xin took over the card and when she saw the text on there, her eyes widened and she ran back.
"Zhixun! Zhixun! Guess who"s here for you?! The highest-ranked official from country L!!"
Lu Zhixun was a little stunned but she didn"t feel too honored. Instead, she felt like she gained a new realization - her status was a lot higher than she originally imagined.
More and more she felt that people were far too stupid to compare her to Xu Pingting.
They should really witness and learn what it means to be truly exceptional.
As she thought about it, she suppressed the excitement she felt and put on a casual face. With much arrogance, she walked to the door and stared at Fang Chengs.h.i.+, "h.e.l.lo, I am Lu Zhixun, what can I do for you?"
Fang Chengs.h.i.+ was highly pleased with the calm way Lu Zhixun acted.
"Ms. Lu, Mr. Leng should"ve already talked to you about the government construction project and have asked for your aid. I wonder if you have thought it through? If you are willing to stay in country L, I will reward you with a salary you are satisfied with."
Given his t.i.tle and status, he didn"t want to come and talk to her personally. However, the person he sent said Leng Yan and Lu Zhixun"s meeting did not go well.
To keep this talented person in this country, he had no choice but to come and talk himself.
Lu Zhixun grinned at those words, "Fang…"
Fang Chengs.h.i.+ interrupted her before she could say his t.i.tle or his full name, "I came today in secrecy. Ms. Lu, you can just refer to me as Mr. Fang."
"Alright, Mr. Fang," Lu Zhixun smiled, "I went to Yin Mountain yesterday to inspect the land. I already have some thoughts about the project. It wouldn"t be an issue for me to complete the project and meet those requirements. As for whether or not I remain in country L, that is up for discussion."
Fang Chengs.h.i.+ was ecstatic. He thought his trip today was worth it.
Lu Zhixun however, changed the subject and continued, "CEO Leng didn"t seem to be very receptive to the idea. I asked him for an a.s.sistant - one who will help me on this project only. However, he denied me that. So, I am sorry but his att.i.tude had made me not want to stay in Country L for this project and for my career."
Fang Chengs.h.i.+"s face dropped. He thought that didn"t sound like something the Leng family would do.
He couldn"t help but ask, "Who did you request as your a.s.sistant? You had someone in mind?"
He wasn"t stupid. If she simply wanted any a.s.sistant, the Leng family wouldn"t have said no.
Since Leng Yan accepted this project, there was no way he would cheap out on such a small matter.
The only possibility was that Lu Zhixun gave him a hard time with the a.s.sistant issue.
Lu Zhixun thought telling him now didn"t matter so she said, "I do have someone in mind. It"s Qiao Qing."
Fang Chengs.h.i.+ froze. That name sounded familiar.
He wasn"t active on social media and never went on Weibo. Though he"s heard of Qiao Qing, he didn"t know her well.
His a.s.sistant, s.h.i.+ Peng, however, was surprised, "The G.o.d of Racing from the Capital Country?"
Lu Zhixun nodded, "That"s the one."
Fang Chengs.h.i.+ frowned.
He didn"t attend the race this year but there were racers from country L who went. So naturally, he knew that the G.o.d of Racing showed up this year.
But…
Fang Chengs.h.i.+ asked Lu Zhixun, "Ms. Lu, why must you ask for her to be your a.s.sistant? She"s good at racing but she may not be skilled with architectural design. How can she help you? Plus, isn"t she in the Capital Country?"
"She"s here in country L and is currently living with Leng Yan." Lu Zhixun said, "As for why I asked her to be my a.s.sistant… I don"t want to share that right now. I hope Mr.. Fang can understand."
