Little Xiao immediately stepped forward and said respectfully, “Miss Bai, please follow me.”

Bai Xue felt that the assistant wasn’t taking her seriously. How dare he ask someone else to do his job. She said, “There’s no need to trouble Little Xiao. I can go to the lounge myself.”

Little Xiao was stunned and looked at the assistant inadvertently.

The assistant frowned. ‘Are you trying to show off?’

He said, “In that case, please help yourself. When the young master comes out, I’ll immediately tell him that you’re waiting in the lounge.”

Bai Xue was angry, but she didn’t let it show on her face. She nodded and said politely, “Thank you.”

At 11 am, Li Yan came out of the office with a man who looked very noble.

Li Yan’s assistant immediately went over and whispered, “Young Master Li, Miss Bai is here. She’s in the lounge. You…”

Li Yan’s expression changed. He said, “You have to make her leave. I asked you to tell her not to come here. Why is she here?”

The assistant felt wronged. He said, “Young Master Li, 1 did. I told her in person.”

Li Yan nodded and said, “Alright. Tell her again that I’m busy today.”

The assistant was about to turn around when Bai Xue suddenly came over. She asked sadly, “Li Yan, are you so busy that you don’t have time for me?”

Li Yan frowned and said, “Didn’t I say that I can’t accompany you today?”

Bai Xue walked to Li Yan’s side and said coquettishly, “I don’t care. Isn’t your meeting done already? You promised earlier this morning to have lunch with me!”

Zhou Sheng, who was watching from the side, coughed a few times and said, “Since your girlfriend is here, we’ll continue our discussion at another time.”

Without waiting for Li Yan to speak, Bai Xue smiled sweetly and said, “Hello, sir. I’m Li Yan’s fiance. It’s almost time for lunch. Why don’t you join us?”

Most men would never reject an invitation from a beautiful girl. Bai Xue was excited. It was the first time she and Li Yan would eat with a client. She had even studied etiquette for this purpose.

Bai Xue’s fake generosity annoyed Zhou Sheng. He glanced at Li Yan and said, “CEO Li, we can eat together next time. I won’t disturb the two of you. Goodbye.”

Li Yan closed his eyes and took a deep breath; he was trying to suppress his frustration. He had wanted to use this opportunity to strike an agreement with Zhou Sheng, but now, all of his efforts were in vain.

Li Yan asked with a smile, “What about our cooperation, Director Zhou?”

Zhou Sheng said, “I need time to think about it. I’ll leave you a message once I’ve made a decision.”

Li Yan nodded. “Alright, Director Zhou. Take care.”

He felt terrible. This period had been tough for his company. With Zhou Sheng’s cooperation, things might turn for the better. But at such a critical juncture, Bai Xue came and ruined it all. Li Yan could only pray that Zhou Sheng would really consider cooperating with him.

Bai Xue said in a playful tone, “Sir, are you not willing to give me the honor of eating with you? Are you looking down on me?”

Li Yan looked at Bai Xue, stunned. Are you crazy? Zhou Sheng clearly doesn’t like you. Why are you forcing him to eat with us?’

Bai Xue thought that she had done the right thing and smiled proudly at Li Yan.

Zhou Sheng said sarcastically, “If you say so.”

Bai Xue’s expression changed. ‘You dare to say you look down on me in front of Li Yan? Aren’t you afraid of offending my boyfriend?’

Zhou Sheng looked at Li Yan and said, “Let’s talk again at another time, CEO Li. Goodbye.”

Li Yan was disappointed. “Take care, Director Zhou.”

Zhou Sheng nodded and walked into the elevator with his assistant.

Bai Xue looked aggrieved as she followed Li Yan back to his office.

After entering the office, she said, “That man is too arrogant. We don’t need a business partner like him.”

Li Yan ignored Bai Xue. He glanced at his assistant and said, “Consider your bonus for the second half of the year gone. Tell the receptionist downstairs that she’s fired.”

His assistant was speechless. He put on a helpless expression and turned to leave..
